SATURDAY, JUNE 19, 1948 LL rge---- ~ Bis rsp Ect THE - DAILY TIMES-GAZETTE ERT TY SR Th TR PAGE THREE -- * May Use Army To Clear London's Strike-Bound 1 Ships ilibuster Snags Approval To Draft of Bill U.S. Men Washington, June 19--(AP)--Working in relays, Sen- ators Glen Taylor (Dem. Idaho) and William Langer (Rep. N.D.) early today launched into which appeared to be the second round of a filibuster to lock passage of peacetime draft, after a momentary halt. They had vowed earlier to "talk the bill to death." Langer spoke for five hours, 13¢ minutes before yielding the floor at 6:28 a.m. EDT. Taylor, third party vice-presidential candidate, who had started the filibuster at 4:37 pm. Friday, then picked up the ball and the filibuster got under way again. Republican . leaders, determined to get action on the draft, defiantly kept senators on hand throughout the night. The weary senators were in continuous. session since 11 a.m. Friday. The talk fest by the two senators blocked official appointment = of Senate members of a House of Representatives-Senate Conference Committee to reconcile sharp differ- ences on legislation to draft men 19 through 25. After a quorum call, Senator John Williams (Rep. Del.) the pre- siding officer tried to put to 4 vote the motion to name the conferees and send the bill to conference. Taylor demanded recognition. "Mr. President, Mr. President," Taylor shouted. Williams finally recognized Tay- lor--and he started all over again. The two-man talkfest, together with. an apparently insoluble Sen- ate-house deadlock on foreign aid funds, threatened to carry the final hours of the 80th Congress over to Monday -- and possibly to another meeting between or after the poli- tical conventions. Adjournment had beén scheduled for tonight. The Senate filibuster threatened to hold up any middle-ground measures approved by committees --or by the group struggling over a $1,000,000,000 difference in house and Senate foreign aid appropria- tions. Veteran Of Three Wars Derives Much Enjoyment From Operatic Records After taking part in three wars and being injured four times, James E. Burnley is now at liberty to sit back and enjoy his favourite hobby, listenihg to his fine collec- tion of operatic records. Mr, Burnley, who for the past 20 years has been employed as chief caretaker at the Oshawa Armour- ies, where he has his comfortable living quarters, retired from active service last week bringing to a close the last chapter in a colorful mili- tary career. Born In Manchester Born in' Manchester in 1883, Mr. Burnley began his military service with the 2nd Battalion King's Royal Rifles in 1900 and for two years fought in the South African War, The veteran, injured three times in the South African conflict, described the conditions there as "the toughest of them all" with what seemed to be ' endless days marching and many hardships. "The soldier today has far more comforts than we had and the army is now a really interesting and excellent career for any young man, I've seen many a recruit come in here, (the armories) take his training, and walk out an of- ficer" Mr. Burnley said. The retired veteran is the son of the noted English journalist, the late James Burnley who, am- ong other achievements, wrote most of "Pears Cyclopedia" before he died at the age of 81 in 1920. Mr: Buraley jr, came to Canada in 1912 and lived in London until joining the 18th Battalion C.EF., in 1914. Oshawa Invited Send Delegate To Provincial Camp Community leaders from all over Ontario are being given an oppor- tunity to gain practical leadership and programme skills at the Com- munity Programmes Institute to oe held at Camp Sunfish, Lake Sim- coe, August 23rd to September 3th. Oshawa, having demonstrated a keen' interest in the development of constructive leisure time activities, is being givén a chance to send re- presentatives. The Ontario Depart- ment of Education, under whose | sponsorship the Institute is being held, will bear the. cost of adminis- tration and instruction. The living expenses of 'those attending must be met by the delegates themselves, or by the community organization sponsoring them as representatives. Several interesting separate courses will be offered. subject to sufficient registration in each -- Social Recreation, Dramatics, Music, Physical Recreation, Arts and Small Crafts. Human Relations (group discussion) will also be a special study. The use of radio as an ad- junct to community programmes will be integrated with all courses under the guidance of Miss Ilys Booker of Community Programmes' staff, and Miss Kay Stevenson of the C.B.C. (in addition to specializ- ed members of the Departmental staff). Outstanding instructors will give leadership in the various fields --Mr. James E. Dean of the Central Ontario Drama League; Prof. Alan Kleon, School of Social Work, To- ronto; Mr. Gordon Yearsley, Ontar- io College of Arf; Mr. Quirt McKi- ney; Peterborough; D. Roby Kidd, Canadian Association for Adult Education. Recration Directors from several Ontario municipalities will play an important part in develop- ing activities as they might be ap- plied to home communities. It is anticipated that the camp- ers will return home with a real contribution to Oshawa comnrunity leisure time activities. A camp set- tink was chosen for the training so that representatives may bring their families along. Children from 2 to 12 years may accompany par- ents, and a separate children's pro- He went overseas with ' Zramme will be given especially for the unit and was wounded and saw | them. considerable action on the battle- fields before returning to Canada. | In 1920, Mr. Burnley came Oshawa and worked for a time at General Motors and later took the position from which he was retired recently after 20 years' duty During his lengthy service at the armories, Mr. Burnley has served under Six commanding of- ficers and of his work during the past 20 years Mr, Burnley said, "It's been a little bit hard at times but looking back I feel that I have enjoyed my time here and have no complaint. I'll be sorry to .go." Mr. Burnley will remain in Osh- awa with his wife and adopted son, With a twinkle in his eye, he points out that he is an hon- orary member of the mess and in- timates that while he has been officially released from active duty he will frequently be about the armouries taking a friendly interest in the changes that come about. What does Mr. Burnley plan to do with all the free time he will now have? Just take things easy; listen to his outstanding collection of operatic recordings and watch the other fellow do the work. James E. Burnley is "off parade."
