Bay, 12-year-old Jim McQuinn, left, ignored a rifle pointed at him by a third hunter and felled one of Hern"s assailants with the handle of a Bc," Scout knife. Hern had protested that the hunters' shots were endangering the lives of the scouts when they attacked him, inflicting a gash on his head. Central Press Canadian Old First War Veteran Returns To Visit Oshawa An interesting visitor in 'Oshawa | yesterday was Harold Field, a former resident of this city, but now domiciled in Los Angeles, Cal- ifornia, where he is the Canad- ian Pension officer of the Western Command of the Canadian Legion. This command is composed of branches of which members are former veterans of the Canadian armed forces. Mr. Field lived in Oshawa at the time of the First World War, > and served in France and Belgium with the Canadain Machine Gun Battalion. On return from over- seas and discharge, he remained only a short time in Oshawa, and then mioved to the United States. When the Canadian Legion was organibed, he became associated with it in Ohio, and later, on moving to California, kept.up that association, and for several years was commander of the Western Command of the Canadian Legion in the United States, also taking over the duties of service officer. In that capacity, his job is to as- sist Canadian veterans in his large area with their pension and allowances problems. Mr. Field was given a warm welcome home by Mayor W. J. Naylor, with whom he toured the city, and he was amazed at its great growth since his last visit here in 1939. He also viewed the new city hall with great interest. He is starting on his return journey to Los Angeles today. °* BOARD OF EDUCATION BRIEFS Life In Ukraine A graphic picture of life in the Ukraine under the heel of the Soviet regime was given to a large audience in the St. George's Ukrainian Catholic Hall on Sun day evening by Prof. Nicholas Pry- chodko, a refugee from behind the iron curtain now living in Toronto. His address was filled with stories of the experiences of members of his family and 'himself. He ex- pressed amazement that there should be in Canada people who were sympathizers with the Com- munist regime in Moscow. » Prof. Prychodko told how his father had been seized by the Rus- sian secret police for having attend- ed church services in his native village, and he wag never again seen by his family. "Having lived behind the iron curtain from the beginning of the Revolution in 1917 until 1944, and having seen with my own eyes, or heard from first-hand witnesses, the unaccountable number of crimes committed by Communist regime. I am astonished and indig- nant at the fact that there are people here in Canada, living in freedom and prosperity, who -are sympathizers of the Kremlin poli- cies, representing them ag being in the best interests of freedom- loving humanity 'and in the interest of some great idea' said the speak- r. SEEK WORLD DOMINATION "That is a terrible lie circulated by shrewd Communist propaganda to lull the vigilance of the demo- cratic world and to pave the way for the Kremlin criminals to world | domination. What does the Kremlin {really bring to the average peo- ple?" "Here are two glaring facts" !said Prof. Prychodko. From 1927 to 1939 ten to eleven million people were liquidated in the Ukraine, where I lived during these years. There was no war in that period. These people died in the famine of 1932-33, especially created by the Kremlin to stifle the farmers' re- sistance to collectivization and Moscow's Communist terror and disappeared in the Siberian concen- | tration camps. I saw with my own | eves the bloated corpses of farmers {lying around garbage dumps and on |the' city streets. I saw whole vil- lages die of starvation." Prof Prychodko related some In a report of the management | Committee to decide the proper | gruesome stories of atrocities he committee read at last night's | meeting of the Board of Education | it was recommended: That the Business Administrator | .eontact the Chief of Police regard- ing the advisability ing Signs" to be side of Simcae Street in front of the OCVI That the communication from Mss.

That the question of installation of shades for the various class- rooms on the southside of the new schools be left with the Building Committee with power to act. In the report of the Advisory- Vocational Committee "it was re- commended. That the report of the Business Administrator regarding the dis- posal of the old airplane engines, stored at the OCVI, be received and the Business Administrator write to the RCAF or the Depart- ment of National Defence for the particulars on the engines in stock. :. NEW BUSINESS Under new business these items appeared: A letter from Canon David M. Rose, rector of St. George's Me- morial Church, advising that they would like to start Sunday School work in the south-east and north- west sections of the city and asking permission to rent the Woodcrest and the Duke of Edinburgh schools for that purpose. The Board was doubtful whether or not the janitors would want to be on the job on Sunday and the matter was refer- red to committee. A letter from Mrs. Eva Brough, secretary of the Supply Teaching Staff, asking for an increase in their salary schedule, abolishing of the two salary schedules and sub- stituting thereof a daily rate of $12.00 retroactive to September 8. The present rate is $8.00 and $10.00. Inspector McEwen said he had made enquiries of other city boards concerning their salaries and the matter was referred to committee. Bible Club Rally Held The annual conference of the Bih'» Club Movement was held on Friday afternoon and evening | in the First Baptist Church with | a good attendance and interest. ' The Canadian director, Rev. A. King, BA, of Hamilton, led the sessions. Miss B. Jordon of Philadelphia, ! PA., brought challenging mes- | sages. Miss R. Beams of Olean, | N.Y.. accompanied Miss Jordon and they both gave many helpful sug~estions for swork among the children. i At the evening session Rev. and ' Mrs. C. R. Nelson, who have quite re ~nt's taken nn residence in Brooklin, were welcomed as mis- sionaries and regional director for the Bible Club Movement through- out the area. Pulp and paper pays out $200 million a year in taxes and other payments to governments. - COMING EVENTS OSHAWA CHAPTER, SPEBQSA, WILL present a concert in Albert Gt.

Critics have said that Glen Gould may well be the finest pianist that Canada has ever produced. While he does very little recital work, he | is undoubtedly a genjus and it be a privilege to observe him 'at work. Small homes and apartments usually mean small ovens. So, while turkeys of traditionz] size may always have the spotlight at the Royal Agricultural Winter Fair, new classes to encourage the display of smaller dressed turkeys have been s~f up at this year's 'fair, Nov. 13-21. 9 "MEETING O WITH CH * TONIGHT ST. PAUL'S PRESBYTERIAN CHURCH PHONE YOUR NEIGHBOR AND BRING HIM TO THE JOHN ROBSON MISSION UR DESTINY RIST . . ." 8:00 P.M. * had witnessed in this period. THE FORCED FAMINE "For a better idea of the enormity of this famine" he said, 'get a library entitled mental photographs. The wheat { crop in the Ukraine was better than | average that year, but on the Kremlin's orders all grain was re- | moved right from the threshers and |shipped out of Ukraine. The far-- mers received only the third screen- {ings. When the democratic nations {offered help to the hungry populace, | Stalin answered that no famine ex- isted in the USSR, but that every- lone lived a happy life of plenty. {In mourning, we commemorate the 20th anniversary of that hunger tragedy by mass demonstrations Under Reds Told in the cities of Canada, the United States and Europe. We hope in this way to help the free world people perceive the true facts of the mon- strosity of the Kremlin Janus, hid- den under a peaceloving mask. "Here is another fact of mass genocide. In 1943, in Vinnitsa, a town in Ukraine with a population of about 40,000, mass graves were uncovered in two orchards which in 1937 had been confiscated by the NKVD and heavily guarded day and night to permit no one to enter. In these graves, 9,642 ies of workers, farmers and in tellectuals were exhumed with their hands tied behind their backs and bullet holes in the napes of their necks. Some bores signs of Pregpding torture. An internation al Medical commission said that these victims had been shot in the period of 1937-38. I attended the ur'orgettable gigantic funeral for these poor victims of Soviet 'demo cracy'." | WHAT VISITORS SEE "That is why people flee not from the west to the east, but from the east westward" said Prof. Prychodko. Western Communists prefer to go to the Soviet Union only as guests to view the special show farms, factories specially decorated for their inspection, and fitted with 'booths to sell sandwich es and cigarettes on the days of these visits, and lastly a prison without bars. Concluding t hese visits they attend gorgeous ban- quets with caviar, followed by a grand ballet. Sometimes they, like Dr. Endicott, are even presented with $25,000 gifts by the Soviet government, the so-called peace prizes, paid for by the¥sweat and blood of Soviet slaves. "Returning home, not only with gifts but also with secret instruc- tions, these Communist prophets freely sing the praises of Moscow's slavery. They call upon us to hate America 'because America is the main_stumbling®block to a speedy world domination by the Kremlin. They call our struggle with Com- mugism hysteria, and piously hon- or the world's greatest organizer of genocide, Joseph Stalin. They are ready to hand the Kremlin the keys to their countries' free par- liaments just as a handful of trai- tors did in Czechoslovakia, Bul- garia, Poland, the = Baltics and others." The are carring on exten- sive and, dangerous to cratic freedom, ties hidden under a mask of peace and progress. WARNING TO CANADA "Let us be on guard" said the speak 'r. "Let us not forget Lenin's words on the Communist tablet, 'Three-quarters of mankind may vie if necessary to insure Commun. ism for the remaining one-quarter.' Let us not forget that in the in terest of our people, our churches, our children and the continued ex- istence of democracy and free- dom, we.must combat vigorously those who are acting on orders to bring Muscovité slavery and poverty to our blessed land." Prof. - Prychodko also gave a radio broadcast of this speech over Station CKLB on Sunday evening. | $1,300 In Loot | No accurate figure is available las yet of the amount of valuables {stolen from the OCVI safe recent- |ly, it 'was revealed at a Board of | Education meeting last night. | Principal M. F. Kirkland estim- |ated that the total value of the secyrities in the safe was $1,300. The amount of Cash taken by the burglars was $448.17. Business Administrator G. Bunk- er reported that no insurance settlement had been made as yet. Included among the securities stolen were war saving certificates and Canada Savings Bonds. There was some hope that the bonds could be traced through their serial numbers, if the list of serial num- bers could be found. Mr. Kirkland said one list of ser- ial numbers was lodged in the safe and taken with the other papers. There might be another list in the office, but he wasn't sure since neither he or the office staff were at OCVI at the time the bonds were obtained. ' Bonds From OCVI At any rate, the school's books were being scrutinized for some reference to the purchase of the bonds, in the hope that they could be traced in that manner. The .3oard was particularly con- cerned with the loss of the bonds since it was felt they did not need to be kept within the school. Since these valuables would hardly be required on short notice, it was thought they might better be in the bank. As far as the cash was concern- ed, the insurance policy would cov- er up to $1,000. The question of purchasing a new safe was introduced and then referred to a committee. A new one would cost $578; a used one would cost $300. The old safe, it was pointed out, was fire-proof only. One member suggested that the new one be made burglar proof. The rest of the Board opined: "That's not possible." Two Plants Cut Staffs Slight decreases im manpower have been reported in two large Oshawa industrial plants. Last Friday, Fittings Limited laid off about 45 men. The men department, but from the plant generally. The reason given was that the factory was overstaffed. At R. D. Werner company, two | 10-men shifts in the Extrusion De- | partment expect to have their | work-week reduced due to slightly less production requirements. In neither case is the reduction in manpower very significant.

OSHAWA Oombining The Oshawa Times and Whitby Gazette and Chronicle THE DAILY TIMES-GAZETTE WHITBY VOL. 12--No. 250 > OSHAWA-WHITBY, TUESDAY, OCTOBER 27, 1953 o ° Rotary Clubs in 86 countries and geographical regions throughout the world are united in an en- deavour to promote international understanding good will and peace. That was the message of Ray R. Jessup of Sudbury, Governor of District No. 247 of Rotary Inter- national, in addressing the RXRo- tary Club of Oshawa yesterday, fol- lowing a conference with local Ro- tary officers, directors and com- mittee chairmen. In addition to the activities of Rotary's 8,000 clubs within their own communities to promote this objective, Mr. Jessup explained Rotary International has spent more than $1,250,000 in recent years through its program of student fel lowships, which enable outstanding college graduates to-study for one year in countries other than their own, as ambassadors of good will. Since this program was established in 1947, 493 Rotary Fellowships have been awarded to students in 55 countries. Rotary 'Works For Understanding "With fellowship and service to others as its keynote, Rotary provides a common ground for 372, 000 business and professional exec- gardless of differing nationalities utives throughout the world re- or political or religious beliefs," the Rotary District Governor em- phasized. Prefacing his remarks, the dis- trict governor paid tribute to past district governor Stanley F. Ever- |son of Oshawa for his work during {his term and expressed admiration lof the volume of charitable and community work being carried on 'by the club. In this regard he made | special mention of the club's {work among crippled children and is jronsership of the Golden Age up. | President Cyril Schofield, who | voiced the appreciation of the local : members presented the district governor with an evening bag for Mrs. Jessup. : Given A mas in Oshawa this year is Oshawa Junior Chamber of NO SANTA CENTRE At their meeting last night the Jaycées announced their sponsor- ship of a home beautification con- test which will replace the Santa Centre held by the organization in previous years. It was decided that the city will be divided into four districts -- | north, south, east and vest. A com- mittee composed of Bob Johnston, chairman; Pat Monoghan, Walter Libby, Don Thompson, Elwood Buckl.r and Claire Donnelly was appointed to bring in tentative | plans at the next meeting. | A suggestion to promote a contest | among the stores was abandoned. Other suggestions for a Christmas project, such as helping a family; decorating the downtown area, and Sanctified Israel Is Talk Theme Percy Burrows of Toronto was the speaker at the monthly meet- ing of the Oshawa Branch of the British Israel World Federation (Canada) Inc. Sunday afternoon in the Orange Temple. His subject was "Sanctified Israel." Mr. Burrows read the lesson at the beginning of his address it was taken from 2 Corinthians 11-18. He said he wanted to use the word sanctified with the meaning any good dictionary gave it. It meant set apart, separate. That is the meaning as it concerns Israel. They. were a people set apart separated from the nations surrounding them. At the time of our Lord Jesus Christ's baptism he aws sanctified for the work God had given him to do, following his baptism he spent forty days in the wilderness. During that time he had a contest with the devil and overcame him. 1 would like to think of Christ as set apart. As a result of his com- munion with God he had power to overcome the devil. There was no need to give in to the devil. Cheist was set apart from From that time be began his min- istry and preached that the King- dom of Heaven is at hand. He received strength from God. St. Paul who is regarded by many second only to Christ, was before his conversion persecuting the church and on his way to Dam- ascus when he was struck blind and became converted to Chris- tianity. Saul of Tarsus as he was Pharisee, he was very well ground-- ed in their teaching. His conver- sion would not wipe this from his mind. After his conversion he went to Arabia and spent some time there during the time he was sep- arated God taught' him. His epistles comprise much of the New Testament. Abraham was living in Ur of the Chaldees when God called him to leave his home and go into the land of Canaan. In Ur he aws sur- rounded by people who worshipped idols. Abraham must have been in daily contact with them, he was a servant of God. It must have been very hard for a righteous person to live in daily contact with evil. He was separated from those with whom he grew up. Moses was sep- arated for 40 years before he led Israel. The Israel peoples after they left Egypt became rebellious cause of this they wandered through Sinai wilerness for 40 years. When the word wilderness is used in the Bible, it does not mean the land was barren but that it was where no people were dwell- ing When they went into Palestine they weer a new generation, a peo- le who had been brought up in the aw of the Lord. Mr. Burrows mentioned several passages of scriptures fh this very interesting address showing that the Israel people were separated from among the nations that they might serve Him, not a favourite people, but a people chosen for service. He had a special job for them to do. Israel was not to make pacts or agreements with the nations the world. | and refused to enter Palestine be- |in RECEIVES MEDAL Mayor W. J.

MOVE TO REVISE CHARTER UNITED NATIONS, N.Y. (CP)-- Canada Monday joined with Ar- entina, Cuba, Holland, New Zea- and and Pakistan in endorsing a draft resolution directed toward re- vision of the United Nations char- ter. The general purpose of the draft resolution is to prepare all member states for the revision dis- cussions which under the provisions of je charter must be undertaken FAMOUS VOYAGE The great American clipper Fly- ing Cloud sailed from New York 10 San Francisco in 89 days in surrounding her and when she dis- obeyed God it brought suffering to her. The Sabbath was to be kept and was to be a sign between the Nation and God forever. We are not keeping it as we should. As long ag we continue to break the Sabbath we shall have trouble. In closing Mr. Burrows again read the lesson. We as living Chris- tians and descendants of Israel should be separate spiritually at least. Ll ; Tre y 94 BRUCE ST.

Reason for shelving the Santa Centre was that most children here | see Santa five or six times a year 'at parties given by unions, clubs | and parades, not to mention depart- | ment store Santas. Chairman Gor- don Baker described Santa as hack- neyed and over . commercialized. Put to the vote, Santa went down under the weight of 24 votes for decorated homes against two for the Santa Centre. EXPLAINS PLANNING Norman C. Millman, chairman of the City Planning Board, was guest speaker. He showed a theoretical layout of streets with courts or re- sidential areas surrounded . by heavy-traffic streets for through traffic. The courts, one quarter by three eighths of a mile in size, would be easily accessible to re- sidents and local delivery, but are designed so that they would attract no through traffic whatsoever. Mr. Millman agreed that the city has never had so large an unbuilt area to work with at one time and agreed that his layout was highly theoretical. He invited questions from his audience. One member asked how the city hopes to keep pace in sewage facil- ities with building. Mr. Millman pointed out that the trouble is mot with local sewers, but in the ex- pense of supplying trunk sewers. He thought the ideal situation would be to use the money new builders spend on septic tanks for sewers, saving them the double expense of discarding septic tanks within a few years to join onto a sewer. PLAN MAJOR STREETS To another question, he replied that the city has major streets in undeveloped areas planned and will fill in a network of minor streets when building in that area [will begin. | One Jaycee wanted to know how areag of a buffer zone a™quarter mile wide surrounds the city, in which no development under two acres in size is allowed. That would prevent what he described as ' pocKets of near shacks within the boundaries." CREEK VALLEY PLAN -To another question, Mr. Millman was happily off on his favorite sub- ject, -- the Creek Valley Drive. He said that the planning board is presently working on plans for the first strip of road between King and Gibbs Street. He visualized a strip of land along the creek from (the lake to Rossland Road, filled eventually with parks, recreation centres, camps for children and a two-lane through highway. Jerry Rutherford, second vice- president, thanked Mf. Millman for hig enlightening talk. Jack Kerr, first vice-president, had introduced Mr. Millman. Chairman Gord Baker announced that an invitation to visit the Bow- PAGE THREE Jaycees To Sponsor 'Home Beauty Plan Christmas Plan pproval Always a special season in the community, Christ- expected to bring forth new color and warmth if the plans being formulated by the Commerce bear fruit. | manville Training School on Nov-- ember 16, had been accepted. REGIONAL CONFERENCE He urged members to go to the regional conference of Jaycees to be held November 14 «and 15 in Chatham. Members of region five, including cities from Oshawa to Windsor to Huntsville, will gather at the Wililam Pitt. Hotel to dis- cuss present trends and problems. Fernand Drapeau, vice president of the organization in Quebec, will be guest speaker. Baker was sure that if only 12 member from Oshawa would go, they could easily win the travel trophy. Clare Keith, a member of the committee for the Jaycees dance to be held Friday at the Polish Hall, Olive Avenue and not, as was. re- ported, on Eldon Avenue, rapped the members for failing to buy their tickets. So far, he said, tickets for nine couples only had been bought. "The dance last year fell flat on its face for lack of Support," he added The Jaycees were reminded by Jerry Rutherford, captain of their Red Feather Committee, to keep at work on the project. Jim Hare announced that the newly formed camera club had nine members and would hold its first meeting next week. - Prospective members present were Jim Gibbons, Don Comerford, Clem Hewitt, Ron Cox, John Phil- lips, Reden Niglis, John Lyons, and Lloyd MacKinnon. - .
