Constitutionally he has no statys. Thus he can speak freely without fear of the sort of indiscretion that might prove fatal, say, in-the sovereign"s case. the nation's welfare appears a de- liberate, thought-out policy. He is keenly aware of the emotional pull of monarchy. 'The characteristic of all the great periods of English history," he said last December in opening a technical college, "has been a nation-wide sense of confidence and adventure which went at the same time with a feeling of personal ser- vice to the sovereign. "These islands now are the centre of a vast family of nations, Let it never be said that Great Britain became. the poor relation of the British Commonwealth in our time. . . BREEZY AND DIRECT The Duke works on the principle of one speech, one idea. His talks are as breezy, direct and dynamic as his personality. Herg are some thoughts from recent addresses: "The need for technical educa- tion is greater than ever before." "Only those companies which make full use of modern science and technology will be able to with- stand the cold winds of competi- tion. . , The solution of our indus- trial problem lies in the universi- ties and technical colleges." "We could go a long way fur- ther. . . if we could just 'make science a little more fashionable." 'British no-men are a thousand times more harmful than American yes-men."' SCIENTIFIC MIND Throughout his theme is the im- portance of scientific and techno- logical advance. This is a genuine interest to Philip. Last year he undertook a study of industrial production. He went down a .coal mine, visited power stations, air- craft factories, atomic energy and guided missiles plants. He writes his own speeches. He bluntly declines to have anyone Philip's effort to link royalty with | PLAYBOY PRINCE ADDS SPIRIT (Continued from Page 1) "stooge" for him. It is part of palace folklore that his first major speech, to a gathering of British | scientists at Edinburgh, was pre- | pared from notes scribbled on a | signal pad in the frigate Magpie, { which he commanded in the Med- iterranean, The speech was a suc- cess. Palace officials don't worry about the Duke's audacity. He isn't the sovereign. Anyway, wasn't Prince Albert a pretty outspoken consort in Queen Victoria's day? "Albert spoke his mind, too, you know," a court spokesman said. "And times have changed. Per- haps there wasn't as much to get excited about in Victoria's time." Much in fact has changed since Prince Albert died in 1861, Prece- dents set in his lifetime do not answer all today's problems. Al- bert came to be Victoria's confi- dential clerk, a virtual king. When Victoria was about to have her set of keys to the private state boxes made for her consort. INFLUENTIAL CONSORT Albert himself said he was not only the Queen's husband but the "tutor of the royal children, the private secretary of the sovereign and her permanent minister." Under present constitutional practice, Philip is unlikely to be made a party of state secrets, all of which the Queen must know. Victoria's consort was often ac- cused of exercising undue influence over her. No such charge is likely to be levelled at the Duke. One of Philip's principal func- tions will be to bring royalty closer to the people. To the job he brings the background #f a eommener, giving him greater familiarity with the world that lies beyond Buck- ingham Palace gates. yg "So the court doesn't worry ahout Philip "dropping a brick." He will not lightly revert to the spirit of earlier, light-hearted ad- dresses--such as the time in Edin- burgh when he spoke of his train arriving 'six drinks Jate."" Philip, in this new Elizabethan age, seems to have found his niche. SEWAGE PLANT company for this wall and nothing will be paid until this wall is com- pleted togour satisfaction, and the work bought up to specification," declared Mr. Dempsey. Ald. Gordon Attersley wanted to know the merits of a repaired wall, He was under the impression that seepage would occur through a cement wall that had been re- paired. "That is not correct," said Mr. Dempsey. If the proper procedure was carried out the wall could be repaired and a company had been engaged that was expert in that particular work. They had a wal- ling history of successful projects and would produce a better wall than the specificatrons called for. Mr. Dempsey said the amount of segregation in the wall was al- most spectacular. A cer tain amount occurred in any poured wall but in the case of the prim- ary bed wall it was more than us- ual. The 'reason-was probably that the men on the job were not as careful as they should have been in vibrating the cement down. It was the third wall to be built at the plant. The other three walls were satisfactory, stated the en- gineer. Charles Warnick Co. Ltd., spe- | cialists in inspection and engineer- ing, will be repairing the wall and they were represented at last night's meeting by M. P. Henley. He told the aldermen that the In poor health for the past year and a half Helen Agnes Edwards, | wife of Elbert Joseph Bowman, | 309 Golf Street, died in the Oshawa | General Hospital yesterday, in her | 52nd year. | A daughter of Mrs. Margaret | Edwards of Oshawa and the late | William J.

NO LOSS OF STRENGTH There was no loss of strength in the wall and when the repairs were completed it was possible that the wall would be 25 per aent better than called for in the spe- cifications, stated Mr. Henley.

I believe that {we are being rightly criticized by | the public for not knowing what is { going on." | Mr. Dempsey said he would be {happy to give information on any | phase of any city job. It would | take up a lot of the council's time. "I assumed that we had this well in hand and under control. I also assumed that council had | quite a few other things to deal | with," sajd Mr. Dempsey. | Ald. Murdoch said the engineer {could load council with informa- | tion if he wished to. The case under Siscussion was one that had pop- | ped up because somebody 'wants to hang this council". Mr, Henley said the forms were stripped at the end of October. A |hole was then found that was about as big as a one-inch pipe. | The other bad spots were chipped {out and left as holes until the com- | pany could be assured of weather {temperatures of over 40 degrees | so that there was no danger of the cement freezing. COUNCIL SHOULD KNOW Ald. Dyer declared that he quite understood that the engineer could load council down with informa- tion. However, this was a case where the forms were stripped in October and the trouble was dis- covered then, yet council had not been given any information, "It has been said the council is slumbering as if we are all asleep," went on Ald. Dyer. 'A condition like this on a project of this size is not a small detail and some- thing to be overlooked. The repair job could be worked out by the experts." "We are not gettin: all the facts as a council," stated Ald. Dyer. | "There are some things that should {have been brought here and weren't.

But the work of both of them was marked by a passionate "love of freedom and liberty, and a strong sympathy for the oppressed and the common people of their lands. "Taras Shevchenko is rightfully the national poet of the Ukraine," said Mr. Hood. "There is hardly a Ukrainian home, from the humbl- est to the richest, that does not contain a portrait of the poet who, during his short life, touched every chord of the Ukrainian heart. He shared the fortunes and misfor- tunes of his people, and during his unhappy life he suffered all the hardships of serfdom, of exile, of police supervision that were the fate of so many of his fellow - countrymen. He was imprisoned for his passionate writing in the cause of Ukrainian freedom, forced into a military prison camp, exiled to the snow steppes of Central Asia. Seldom has a poet lived 'and suf- fered to the full as did Shevchenko, and rarely has a man so fully presented to the world the aspira- tions of his people." The writings of Shevchenko con- sited of a vibrant message to the world of today, said the speaker. "He is one of those men who have a message for all humanity, for the suffering and downtrodden, the '| victims of injustice and oppression everywhere. In the 20th century we are learning to appreciate him as a man who has a message, not only for his own times and coun- try, but for the whole world of today. His fearless appeal to right and truth and justice speaks as eloquently to the new world as it did to the old." Mr. Hood expressed the view that the Ukrainian people, with their innate love of literature, mu- sic and drama, and their musical and dramatic talents, had a great contribution to make to a truly na- tional Canadian culture. Recalling the musical and dramatic present- ations which were a feature of the life of the Ukrainian citizens of Oshawa some 20 years ago, he expressed regret that these were things of the past, and urged that they be revived so as to keep alive ig distinctive Ukrainian cultural e. '"These are days,' said Mr. Hood, "in which the songs which Shev- chenko sang, the aspirations which he expressed in his poems, have a real meaning. We are living in a world in which we of the free na- tions, like Canada, enjoy our free- dom. But that freedom is threaten- ed by the same evil force which in the old days oppressed your fore- fathers and which are today o pressing your kinsmen in the ok raine. Those who have robbed your fellow - counirymen in Europe of their liberty, their independence, would like to rob us of these things in Canada. They have their spies and propagandists in Canada, try- ing to work their way into our or- ganizations and societies, and use them to take our freedom from us. "In such days, it is of tremen~ dous importance to.have in Can- ada those people who have come from lands in' which they knew what jt meant to lose their free- dom, and to live under tyranny, slavery and oppression, so that they can give us their warning of what can happen to us here if we are not constantly on our guard." Speakin as being stirring and inspiring in its original Ukrainian, but rich and beautiful n any language, Mr. Hood recited the English transla- tion of some of the outstanding patriotic verses from "The Kob- zar" and other works of the poet. The speaker was introduced by Michael Starr, MP, who told of the organization and aims of the Uk- rainian Business and Professional Men's Association. Zenova Salm- ers expressed the thanks of the gathering to the speaker for his ad- dress, and for his sympathetic un- derstanding of the life and work of Shevchenko, TRAFFIC TOLL Yesterday Accidents... esevarrevisesss Injured Killed irae esanssseangr Year to Date Accidents .... sesnnse P= AAT 29 1 PLEASE DRIVE CAREFULLY 'gtraffic mishaps were g of Shevchenko's poetry | Icy Streets Contribute To 8 Accidents Oshawa drivers were plagued with roads that resembled skating nks yesterday and today.
