Rotary clubs and half million Rotations In Greece and Ghana in Finland and the Fiji Islandsin the 114 countries and geographical reg ions where there are Rotary clubsthe anniversary will be marked by men whose diverse languages religions and politi cal beliefs find common dc nominator in the Rotary ideal of serving others EARLY DAYS Recalllng the early days of the first Rotary club George Mulbolland president at the club in Barrie said When Rotary began in Chicago on Feb 23 1905 its appeal to busi nusmen was largely social with the founder of Rotary Paul Harris lawyer has ing his idea for the organiza tion on the conviction that friendship and business could go hand in hand to the benefit of both Today as it was right from the beginning friend ship is still basic in Rotary but only for its ability to provide serviceminded men with in creased opportunities to serve STRONG APPEAL flho strong appeal of Rotarys concept of service to men of different vocational interests is evidenced by the organizations phenomenal growth Mr Mul liniiifiilniioffiééfié CHIS Dollars OTTAWA CPlThe govern ment sold $133900000 of its re sagvcs of United States dollars during January in theface of increasing discount pressures on the Canadian dollar gThe decline in the govern ments archange holdings to 914321300300 on Jan 31 from 9055800000 month earlier Was reported Friday in the of ficlal Canada Gazette It was the third month in row that the exchange holdings of US dollars and gold had de clined following the heavy pub chases during October of $156 300000 in US dollars The October purchases by the exchange fund were made to olfset heavy pressures which tended then to increase th Ca nadian dollars exchange value funds sales of US dol lars since then have had the ef fect of moderating decline in the Canadian dollars exchange value The January decline in the fund brought the fund below its level at the first of October DISCOUNT INCREASES During Januarythe discount op the Canadian dollar in creased by more than onethird of cent to cents on Jan 31L Since then the discount has increased further and Friday the Canadian dollar was quoted ill New York at 95 214 cents in us funds filo his budget last June 20 Ft nhnce Miruster Fleming an nounced the government was prepared to use the exchange bind to buy us dollars in or der to move the Canadian dollar to discount and ensure that the exchange rate is kept within range appropriate to Canadas changing economic Motion The Canadian dollars ex change value then at par with the US dollar dropped imme diately to threEpencent din count where it remained until November when the discount began to widen In the Commons Friday in reply to an opposition question Mr Fleming said that it was Not fair to coll the Canadian rate manipulatedrrate Whila thero have been pe nds such as in October and januory when our exchange holland said On the day it be comes 57 years old Rotary In ternational will be comprised 01 approximately 11100 clubs That means that since its founding Rotary has grown at the rate of one new club every 45 hours It also means that somewhere in the world every day of every week men gather for Rotary club meeting The Rotary Club at Barrio meets every Thursday at 1215 noon at Barrie Community House Its meetings like those of all Rotary clubs everywhere are important to the success of the clubs entire program of service and thus attendance is expected of all members MANY LANGUAGES distinctive aspect of the ll00ipius weekly Rotary meet figs held irround the gllgba many anguages spo en these gatherings They include Arabic Afrikaans Portuguese Welsh Gaelic Hebrew Tamil Korean Tagalog Icelandic and mnny others At Rotary meet ing in continental Europe alone nearly 10 different languages are heard But diversity of tongues in no way hinders the efforts of Ro tarians to further world under standing through personal con tacts at international Rotary gatherings and through inter county exchanges of correspond ence programs publications and of students who cross boun dary lines to live and study in another nation under various plans of Rotary clubs Each year more than 10000 students participate in these Rotary ex changes In January fund has operated extensively it has not operated in on eg gressive manner that is to say it has not driven the rate in one direction or another On the contrary it has at all times responded to and moder ated market pressures ASKS FDR COMMENT Mr Fleming made his com meat alter John Matheson LLeedsl asked him to com ment on statement by US Treasury Undersecretary Bo bert Roosa criticizing coun biés who juggle their oxcbang re The minister said that since the June 20 budget the Cana dian dollars exchange value has moved within narrow range and the operations of our exchange fund on each side of the market have approximlt ately balanced out Mr Fleming noted that the Jan 31 exchange fund holdings of $321900000 compare with $1040000000 on May lost He did not refer to the cur rent pressures tondingto in crease tbo discount on the Ca nadian dollar However it is believed that much of the pressures resldt from the recent strong inflow of imports with Canadian im porters purchasing US funds to pay for imports There have also been reports that Canadian Exporters holding US dol lars have delayed exchanging them for Canadian funds in ex pectations of further widening of the discount SALLYS SALLIES gen Barrie Kimberley Ann Graham Barrie Sandra Jamel Barrie Teri London Barrie Joanne Robinson Camp Honien Nancy Scott
