Lay Cornerstone At Northminster Rev, H. A. Mellow, minister at Northminster United Church, laid the cornerstone of the new Christian Education Building at amimpressive service Thursday night at the church. Prior to the ceremony, a serv- ice of worship was held in the sanctuary. The organ prelude, "Fantasy on 'Lobe den Her- ren"', was composed by John R. Robertson, organist and choir leader and was played for the first time Assisting in the service were) E. George Perkin, clerk of ses- sion and Ronald Pierce, super-| intendent of the Sunday School. FORMER PASTOR SPEAKS Rev. Ben. S. Morwood, pastor of Zion United Church, Hamil- ton, a former minister of North- minster, was the speaker. In his address he stated that this build- ing is evidence that the people to a relatively few, it is the duty of the whole church. CHRISTIANITY VITAL Mr. Morwood continued say- ing "Christianity is alive and | Vital because it has a heart. The heartbeats of Christian life and growth are 'worlship' and 'learning'. Both are necessary. One of the deep weaknesses of our modern religion is the lack of knowledge One of the most |hoepful trends of $ur. time is definite, obvious increasing in- terest in the Bible and a search after religious truth." Mr. Morwood closed by ex- pressing his wish for God's blessing on the work to be done in the new building. The congregation proceeded to the site of the cornerstone where Robert Latham, secre- tary of the official board, was master of ceremonies.

Workshop The Oshawa Little Theatre has arranged for a Drama Workshop of eight sessions to be held on Thursday evenings, commencing Thursday, Oct. 26 at 8 p.m. in Room 1 of St. Gregory's Auditorium, 190 Sim- coe street north. The course is co-sponsored by the community program branch of the Ontario Depart- ment of Education, the Central Ontario Drama League, and the Oshawa Little Theatre. The eight sessions will deai with acting, direction and stage management. Three of these will be devoted to acting and three to direction, under the instruction of Henry Zoder oi Toronto. Mr. Zoder, before coming to Canada in 1954, studied drama and music at the Prague Con- servatory, and also studied for three years with the Stanislav- ski Moscow Art Theatre (in exile in Czechoslovakia). While with the latter group he was agtive as an actor, artistic di- rector and producer. In Canada, Mr. Zoder has directed for the stage, worked on radio, and has authored and directed the program "Voice of My People'. de has also conducted workshops and dra- ma courses throughout Ontar- io, including a number held at Barrie, Guelph and Bowman- ville. The remaining two sessions of the workshop will be devoted to stage management, and the sponsors have been fortunate in obtaining the services of Russ Waller as instructor on this §ub- ject. } Mr. Waller will speak out of the knowledge gained from three years spent as Stage Manager at Hart House, acting at the Stratford Shakespearian Festival, and as Assistant Set Designer for the CBC Television Network. At the Dominion Drama Fes- tival.in Montreal last Spring Mr. Waller received the award for the best set design in the festival for his execution of the set for 'Rashomon'. Oshawa theatregoers will remember him for his fine direction of the Oshawa Little Theatre's pro- duction of 'The House of Ber- narda Alba". Those in the area interested in theatre will find that a know- ledge of the three subjects be- ing dealt with--acting, direc- tion and stage management -- will give them a fuller realiza- tion of the way in which each of these facets of the theatre contribute to a good produc- tion, Registration for this wWork- shop will be at 7:30 p.m., Oct. 26, at St. Gregory's Auditor- ium.

JANE (GRANNY) WILSON Funeral services for Oshawa's Mayor Christine Thomas flew to Ottawa this morning, as a member of the Community Auto Study Committee, to meet with Minister of Finance Don- ald Fleming and urge adoption of certain recommendations of the one-man, Royal Commis- sion on the automotive indus- life member of the women's|try Committee members, includ- ing municipal heads and offi- cials from Windsor, St. Cathar- ines, Oakville, Trafalgar and Hamilton, will urge immediate adoption of four of the recom- mendations of the Bladen report: FOUR RECOMMENDATIONS --That the base for applicatior of sales tax on imported cars under the Excise Tax Act be changed from the "duty paid value" to the "sale price" to the dealer in Cahada. --that the sales tax on cars under the Excise Tax Act be assessed on a price equivalent to a "notional" wholesale price by discounting the price to the dealer. --That wherever '"Common- wealth content" appears in cer- tain Tariff Items provisions of the Customs Tariff, it be amend- ed to read "Canadian content" --this recommendation is a complicated seven-part one covering duty on importation of cars and car parts and specifi- cations relating to Canadian con- . |tent.

Among those attending the services were Her Worship Mayor Christine Thom- as and her husband, T. D. (Tom- of "Granny's" grandsons. In all, Car Centre Heads Present Brief and duty free entry of parts for use as original equipment or in repair, It calls for parts to be con- sidered as content if embod- ied in vehicles produced in any country for sale anywhere. Now, parts are only considered con- tent when embodied in a ve- hicle assembled in Canada. (The committee had some re- servation on this, saying, "adoption would seem to im- ply Canadian parts manufactur- ers would be in the position of producing parts from materials and components which would be dutiable if imported by them but duty free if imported by an auto manufacturer producing a similar item on his own.") CONTENT DETERMINATION It calls for Canadian content to be determined as a) a per- centage of the sum of the fac- tory cost of cars produced in Canada; b) a percentage of the value for duty of imported vehicles) c) a percentage of the value for duty of imported re- pair or past model service parts. It specifies Canadian content percentages needed in cars and commercial vehicles for duty free entry: cars -- 20,000 units calls for 50 per cent; between 1000,000 and 200,000 units calls for 70 per cent; over 200,000 units, 75 per cent. Commercial vehicles -- 20,0 units calls for 50 percent; up to 50,000 units calls for 55 percent; over 50,000 units calls for 60 per ent. € One Royal Commission re- commendation calling for re- moval of the 7% per cent ex- cise tax on cars, has been im- plemented. ACTION URGED Implementation of two others, calling for 10 per cent tariffs on cars and car parts from the United Kingd (as opposed to present duty free entry) was urged with the qualification that, "with the UK contem- plating entry into the European ommon Market, we urge ac- tion, while recognizing that the government is in the best posi- tion to know how soon imple- mentation is feasible." Comments the committee: "The fact that the majority of our imports are high in labor content' while our exports are low in labor content has result- ed in decreased activity in the secondary manufacturing field ~ and sizeable Canadian unem- ployment.
