Finney said Wednesday that "certain econo- mic interests believe that the 'open city' is good for business". Speaking to the 30th annual Ontario Police Association con- vention here, Commission .Fin- ney hinted that more and more illicit funds are being invested in private business to reflect an image of respectability to conceal corruption. "The open city," Commis- sioner Finney stated, "means that the good and decent people of a community would be exposed to the raucous social disintegration caused by open prostitution, illegal gambling and the unregulated sale of liquor." COLD FACTS FORGOTTEN Commissioner Finney charged that the proponents of the wide- open city have forgotten the hard cold facts of life. "The hard cold facts of life are that organized crime reaps the pro- ceeds of the illicit activity that said, must be ever. vigilant to protect all rights, justice. Justice, right and free law-abiding majority. has ever witnessed," Commis- sioner Finney charged. PENDULUM TO SWING He said the effective opera- tions of the police agency in | ly hampered.

"Nothing is more astounding to the police administrator nor more frustrating, than to be faced with an inadequate bud- get for salaries, equipment, maintenance and building facili- ties -- and yet to have to |answer to the community for a |mounting crime rate for widespread violations of public morals and even for inefficiency in the police agency."

Nelson of Oshawa, president of the Sev- enth-day Adventist Church in Canada today announced his re- tirement at a meeting of the exceutive committee of the de- {nomination's highest governing body, the Canadian Union Con- ference. Pastor Nelson was elected in 1950. and was re-elected three times since then. At the age of 73, he has cuimpleted 48 years of service in the ministry of the church, with 32 years in a var- iety of administrative posts in both Canada and the United States. Pastor Nelson and his wife, the former Eva Bowen, have four children, two sons, Paul and Edwin, serving as mission- aries in Japan and Brazil and two daughters, Beatrice Rey- nolds of South Lancaster, Mass- achusetts, and Dorothy Retzer of Florida, __whose--hus- bands are also Adventist mini- f sters and church leaders. ® Since his election in 1950, tot- al tithes and offerings contri- buted by the Canadian members of the denomination have risen sharply and a multi-million dol- lar program of new church building and extension has re- sulted in scores of new churches being built in many rural and city parishes from Vancouver Island to Newfoundland. The executive committee is expected to name a new presi- dent for the church to fill the unexpired term of Pastor Nel- son who was re-elected in Ed- monton, in 1959, for a four-year tearm curb, struck a no parking sign and a guy wire, and came to rest in an empty lot on the west side of Park road. The officer said he could not ascertain at what point along the 187 foot trail the child, wu- gene McGuire had been hit. The | boy was hospitalized with bruis- es and lacerations. McPhee told the court his "brakes went hard" on him as he came up behind cars stopped for the Park road traffic signal. He said he pulled onto the boule- vard to avoid a rear-end colli- sion.

Hosts for the convention will be members of the Kiwanis Clubs of Halifax, Armdale Halifax, Halifax Northwest and Dart- The greatest strength of a '|police force is the attitude of officers toward the public said Professor L. Joslyn Rogers, con- sulting chemist of the medico- legal department of the Attorney-General's Department Wednesday. He was addressing delegates to the 30th annual Police Association of Ontario convention. | "Seventy percent of police time is spent in traffic and so there is bound to be friction with the public," said the Oshawa- born professor. "Often it is necessary to pick up notable people."* | Mr. Rogers described how an \officer could make good public relations or bad public relations. He quoted one citizen who had been apprehended for speeding as saying: "The officer was so nice I felt ashamed." "Most people have one idea about the. law," said Mr. Rogers. "Law to many people is the man with the stripe on his trousers -- not a judge or jury." The professor then point- ON BAR COUNCIL Judge J. C.

"That is why I fought with the Department of Highways to have the words 'by police order' removed from highway signs. When the motorist sees these signs he is irritated and that is why the Department of High- ways should be credited with an order," said Professor Rogers. "The police should not be made scapegoats:" Truck and Auto In Collision Vehicles driven by Earle Ken- neth Harding, 523 Montrave avenue and Nick Mayer, 86 Grenfell avenue, were involved in a rear-end collision on Simcoe street. north at Alma _ street Wednesday. The Mayer car and a truck driven by Harding were pro- ceeding north on Simcoe street when the accident occurred. No estimate of damage is available. Constable W.. Gearing investi- gated. Mr. Rogers said in his ad- dress that he hopes never to see a universal police force in Can- ada. "The best way is the pres- ent way where there is co-oper- ation between the Ontario Pro- vincial Police, town and city police departments and the RCMP, he said. He said he felt that if there was one force, politicians could tell police what to do. "This should never be, as police work would be hampered by political influence," he said. Professor Rogers concluded by saying: "I hope the new police school in Aylmer will do for police that which we know is so important for the adminis- tration of justice in the Prov- ince of Ontario."
