Now, Sir, it seems very strange to others as well as myself that the local Welfare Society have to go outside of the City of Oshawa to | find a person so called qualified to till this position. keep account of for relief made much unemployment collected locally, often funds distributed necessary by from 1oney given by many who can ill afford it, but who | give out of the goodness of their | hearts with the thought of helping others. Surely, Sir, there are many girls and women in Oshawa who | are qualified to fill this position who are unemployed. The excuse might be made hese workers have to be trained in this work, If that is thc case why is it necessary for Miss Jackson to spend two weeks instructing Miss McGillicuddy in her duties. Com rion-sense tells us there must something wrong or this condition would not exist, if any local office needs a secretary can they get one locally ? When the Welfare Society put on the big drive the response was all that could be expected. We gave our hard-earned money to help our neighbors not to provide employ- ment to outsiders. In the same ar- ticle I notice the amounts of monthly relief expenditures do not tally with the totals according to | the figures given there is a differ cnce of over seven thousand dollars Is this.a sample of bookkeeping or an error? street if these things are allowed to continue the Welfare Society will have a hard time to collect funds in the future. Trusting I have not taken up too much space I remain, Yours very truly, FRED BALL. Editor's Note :--The figures re- ferred to in this letter should read: Expenditures for relief inc expenditures for groceries, fuel, nilk and special relief for Novem. ber, of 1931 were $1991.25, for De- cember, $3684.90 and for $5726.92, making a total of '$11,403.07 but with the Government grant for relief the Board paid in actual cash | only $3736.42, OBITUARY MRS..

Willlam G. Martin, Minister of Public Welfare, who spoke to the sec- ond reading of his bill to amend the Old Age Pensions Act. Stating as his recson for urg- mg that local boards should be deprived of their power, and that power given to the Commission, Mr. Martin declared that the re- sponsibility "for the references to abuses in old-age pensions in the press" ghould be laid on the shoulders of the local boards.

He cited an instance of a pensioner who had three sons, each a Canadian' Pacific Railway conductor, and of another with a daughter owning a $2,000 house. Another pensioner, Mr, Martin | elaborated the theme, transferred hie farm and property | months before filing his applica- tion, and yet a fourth applied to have hig name inscribed on the peisions rolls only four months after transferring property worth $5,000.
