PAGE THREE Bowmanville Daily Times Representative' Phone No. 53 NEARING END OF BALL SCHEDULE Looks Like Front Street or High School Champions \whless something unusual hap- pens when the High School meets the Public School in the near future Front Street and High School will battle for the league honors towards the end of next week. Knitting factory dropped out of the running last night when they were defeated by the Whiz by a 11 to 9 score and the winners have no chance of en- tering the playoffs unless Public School defeat High School which will place the latter and the Whiz on even ground for second place. * As the Public School has not displayed any brilliant softball this season while the High School has shown considerable ability the conclusion seems forgone. The game last night was a fairly even affair with the chances in the first half being about equal. Rovan was back pitching for the Whiz in their final effort to reach the playoffs and he pitched a good game, al- though hardly up to the mark he set when he pitched against the Lizzies last Saturday. Whiz batted first and took a two run lead which was reduced by one in the Knitters first bat. In the second frame the Knitters took a two run lead after holding the Whiz scoreless, At the end of the third the teams were all even at 5 to 5 but from then on Whiz took the offensive and ex- cept for sharp last minute rally for the Sock makers held the rest of the game in their hands. In the last innings the Knitters made a great effort when Brough came home and Osborne scored a home run. Luxton pitching for the losers was quite good.

At the station the visitors were presented with two barrels of luscious apples from Durham orchards and their visit here will be memorable for this token of friendship. Many citizens took the oppor- tunity of inspecting the cars ex- hibiting products of the soil and of the shop of Mississippi State.

Dick- inson, veterinary and food inspec- tur, revealed at the regular meet- ing of the board of health last night, Dr. Dickinson noted that tctal number of animals brougnt into the city for slaughter during the past two months has dropped to some extent, over the ration of preceding months. The trade however is now showing definite signs of improvement, Dr. Dick- inson noted. Oshawa stores which handle foodstuffs are showing a gratify- irg appreciation of the value ot adequate refrigeration the veter- inary and food inspector report- ed, It is aparent that where meats, milk and perishable fo .¢ rroducts are stored, good refrig- eration should be providea and thie fact is evidently realized by local merchants.

This band, resplendent in smart uni- forms, played several fine selec- tions during the brief welcome ceremony at the station. After the speeches had | concluded the visitors were ush- ered into cars supplied by Osh- awa citizens and were then taken on a tour of the city. Headed by Mayor Mark's smart red Cadil- lac, a calvacade of motor cars was formed, and the parade wended its way through the city streets on the route which had been arranged by Col. B. J. Mc- Cormick, secretary of the Cham- ber Commerce, Points of in- terest which taken in in- cluded the business section, the large plant of General Motors' of Canada Ltd., the Collegiate and Vocational Institute, the Oshawa Hospital, the golf links, Pedlar People Ltd., and other large in- dustries, Lakeview Park and Oshawa harbor.

Here, under direction of J, C. Holton, State Commis- sioner of Agriculture, the many and varied products of the state's farms and forests were shown. The fine samples of grains, fruits, vegetables and other pro- ducts of the goil indicated clear- ly that Mississippi is rich in ag- ricultural resources, while the displays of cotton also indicated one important source of the state's gvealth, Col.

'On board the train Col. McCormick was introduced to Dennis Murphee, Lieutenant- Governor elect of tue State, who is director of the tour. Mr. Murphee is also a former Cover- nor of Mississippi. Interviewed by The Times members of the party stated that they were enjoying the tour im- mensely and that they were find- ing the trip through Canada especially - delightful, Mississippi, like Ontario, is suffering from depression and for this reason the "Know Mississippi Better Party" is only halt the size of former years. "We have had the best cotton crop in years," one man inform- ed The Times, "but the prices are the poorest they hive ever been and there is no market."

London, Sept. 4.--Great Bri- tain is to race against hersecl! for the Schneider Cup Sept. 12. The Royal Aero Club learned from France and Ita'y vesterday that for reasons summed up as had weather, bad luck and loss of machinery, they would be unable to compete in the famous air race unless it could be postponed for 31x months. The club replied that the rules did not permit such post- penement. The race, ther:fore, as an international event is off, It was learned at the same time, however, that British pilots will conduct a "flyover" a week from next Saturday by racing against one another in the hope of bettering the speed record for the race, which now stands at 228.63 miles per hour. It was assumed that Great Bri- tain will keep the trophy, since she already had won it two years in succession. It was algo regard- ed as probable that this year's race might be the last of the ser- ies. In a statament issued to-night the Royal Aero Club said that an attempt would be made to lower the existing world speed record of 357.7 miles an hour. (Continued from page 1) Japan is following to a certain extent in our footsteps in their sen communications, jul Japan is not so dependent upoa the safe- ty of sea communications as we ourselves. She is infinitely more self-supporting than Great Bri- tain." He stressed the fact that if the sea communications of Great Britain were impaired, it would mean starvation in about a month for the British people. ""here is the question of the pros- perity of our Dominions," contin- aed his Lordship. Although the Dominions are largely self-sup- roiting so far as foodstuffs are concerned, there are imports aud exports which are essenticl if not for life but for prosperity. For that reason we could not agree {0 the limit put before us by the United States of America." The Admiral stated that he had advanced these points at tne Cen- eva Conference, and recalled the fact that an American Admiral hed stated that the Uuited States were dependent upon sea com- munications for food. |"I said: 'In what direction?' " continued his Lordship, "and 'he said: 'Manganese.' I said: 'You do not eat manganese.' "' Directing attention to the Lon- don Conference, when Britain had agreed to a strength of fifty cruis- ers until 1936, Admiral Jellicoe declared: 'There are many of us who regret that decision. By ac- cepting a strength of fifty cruisers Great Britain has handicapped Lerself. By 1936 we shall poss- ess fifteen eight-inch gun cruisers, ae against twelve for Japan and cighteen for the United States, snd to make up a total of fifty we have to have thirty-five other cruisers carrying six-inch or oth- er guns. We have had to limit ourselves to 96,000 tons of cruis- ers up to 1936. In order to make up a total of fifty we havo ad- mitted that we will take into cur cruiser strength vessels exceed- ing sixteen years' life." His Lordship also pointed out that they werd taking twenty years life for some cruisers to make up a total of fitty, Japan had not been asked to do that. The rea- son that she had advanced was that she would have no work in her dockyards for a certa.n per- jod. "It may be a good argu- ment for Japan, but not for us" declared his Lordship. Inadequate by 1936 "The real truth is," he assert- ed, "that successive Governments since 1926 have not laid down an adequate number of cruisers. Therefore, the cruiser strength is going to be inadequate by 1936. The same is true of destroyers. If there was one:'thing we suffer- ed from during the Great War, it was the inadequacy of destroy- er strength. Destroyers are es- sential for convoy work. To go and limit ourselves, as we have done to a total of 110 in the fut- ure, is, to my mind, inadequate. Not only that but to get that total of 110 by 1936 we should lay down 16 destroyers every year. What we have done last year and the present year is to lay down nine in each year only. Therefore, by 1936 we shall be sadly behind the total of 110 which we were allowed by the London Treaty, and which I, for one, do not think is a sufficient total. Again, France is building flotilla leaders from 2,000 to Z,- GRAVE WARNING 500 tons displacement. Our flot- illz leaders are from 1,300 to 1,- 500 tons only. I am not anxious to say anything against France. "France has adopted all along the question of security as a basis of their future armaments." At that point he referred to the ex- ample set by Britain, and then dealt with the mercantile navy: 'Nothing too great could be said of the work of the mercantile dur- ing the Great War." The Admir- al spoke of the courage, endur- ance and determination shown by the officers and men of that branch of the service. After dis- cussing the problems and dangers with which they were confronted during the war, he said: "It is a shame to ask them' to risk the same thing in any future war. That is why I am of the opinion that a strong navy is esse.tial for the British Xmpire." "I am very glad," he added, "that his Royal Highness, recog- nizing the honors due to that navy has constituted himself az Lead of it. Nothing too great can be said about that navy. I have spoken freely my mind about the navy, because I feel it is my duty to do so. I only hope that if the spirit of peace has not entered into the hearts of man- kind in general that we shall have in future a navy adequate for the protection of our sea communica tions." MORATORIUM ON MORTGAGES ASKED Windsor Wants Suspension of Principal Payments For Year Windsor, Ont., Sept. 4.--Sup- port of a plan for a one-year mor | atorium on mortgage principal payments will be sought by Wind- sor representatives at the meet- ing of the Ontario Municipal Ag. sociation, in Toronto, the lattew part of this week.

W. Field 'of Montreal, British Trade Commis- sioner in Canada, yesterday in epeaking in the Women's Building at Canadian National Exhibition, under the auspices of the Na- tional Council of Women, said that if the theatres were not more friendly to British pictures the latter would find a way into the field anyway. The situation during the past twe years had improved, however, he was certain, although there was still great difficulty in ar- tith pictures ought to he placed on at least a level with foreign productions. > Dr. E. A. Hardy, educationis® of Toronto, reviewing the general situation in Canada, believed that she was on the eve of a great de- velopment in the way of educa- tional films. Canada had plenty of trained material, natural scen- ery, and throbbing daily life that wae adapted in such a develop« ment but she lacked the technie- jans and the capital necessary to put it across. He expressed the desire that the Governments would give their co-operation in ° so doing. : There was a decided need in Canada for a clearing house for educational films. Nowadays near- ly every country had a pooling place and the Dominion, he felt, should not lag behind in this respect, : ranging Canadian bookings. Bri-
