FRIDAY, DECEMBER 9, 1927 EK SOLVING VETERANS' PROBLEMS By Order in Council the Federal Govern- sent has taken steps to relieve the miseries of a class of veterans whose hardships in sonsequence of war disabilities perhaps en- tle them to a higher degree of sympathy han they have hitherto received, Such, ander the provisions of Order, are to be ad- mitted to hospitals on certification of De- minion employment officers when it is estab- shed that their pensions are inadequate to support life, that they are homeless and in- digent, and that they are unemployable, This step ensures to such men clean quar- ters, shelter, food and an allowance of $12 onthly for pocket money and clothes, As a matter of logic, a veteran found to be unemployable through war disabilities is entitled to all that the Federal Government proposes to do for him and more, But other considerations enter into the problem, Some en neglected the opportunity of retraining for peace; others were mentally unadapted for such instruction; and not a few never had the opportunity, The basic fact, however, is the nation's gratitude to its former defenders, They served; their bodies or minds bear the wounds of battle and war's hardships; and for those who cannot compete on equal terms with life, a harbour of peace and modest plenty is to be provided, DELEGATIONS EFFECTIVE The Border Cities "Star" recently recalled the stirring times when Oshawa, following the late Federal election, descended by hund- reds on Ottawa to seek concessions for its motor industry, The "Star" offers that in- cident as evidence of what a large delegation ean accomplish despite the tendency to cri- ticize such concerted action. Perhaps what helped Oshawa's efforts was the unanimity lof its citizens who went to Ottawa not to stage a political battle, but to fight their homes and hopes of development, The extract from the Windser daily fol- lows ;-- "There is always a certain amount of cri- ticism levelled at large delegations who march in mass formation upon Governments, It is not two years ago since the famous Oshawa draft made its sortie from the auto- mobile factories of Central Ontario and stormed Parliament Hill in Ottawa, They were met by the premier who smiled and told them something about going home and reading the Acts of the Apostles. Every- one thought the delegation had come, seen and left without conquering. "But if the results of that march on Ot- {awa are analyzed, it will be found that the Oshawa delegation had practiclly every re- guest granted, There were sufficient altera- tions and adjustments in the proposed re- duced tariff for automobiles that the Cana- dian factories were able not only to go on, but also to extend their plants to take care of new business, The majority of people laughed at the idea of the hundreds going down from Oshawa. But the delegation ac- complished far more than even the most op- timistic dared expect." --- WHISKERS AT LARGE Al the gentlemen composing the manage- ment of the Royal City's winter fair may be as clean-shaven as a choir-boy, but one can- not help connecting them, mentally, with hirsute appendanges of the most argumenta- | tive type, now that they have given their distinguished approval to the 20th Cen- tury's proneness to anarchy, That is to say, the Guelph Winter Fair management has refused passes to the fresh- man class of the Ontario Agricultural Col- lege. At the same time, passes are being is- sued to all the upper The freshman class is thus punished be- cause of its recent hazing outbreak and con- sequent notoriety. if the Fair management had taken the bigh ground held so econtemptously by sophomore's that freshmen aren't human and thus are not entitled to mingle with the Winier Fair's prize cattle, this course of THE OSHAWA DAILY TIMES, FRIDAT, DECEMBER 9, 1927 rest of the Province, As a matter of sound development, the O, A, C, should be moved to Oshawa and its courses enlarged to cover technical education, Oshawa has no complex» es as regards freshmen, They'd be welcome here, "THE GROWTH OF A GREAT PORT" Not the least notable of this Jubilee Year's contributions to the records of Canadian pro- gress is the informative and handsomely illustrated volume published by The Harbour Commissioners of Montreal entitled "The Growth of a Great Port," The historical chapters are high illumin. ating and presented in a way calculated to hold the reader's attention, These sections are accompanied by interesting photographs through which the pageant of the port through the decades in which it grew to greatness is reproduced, Then the Habour itself is introduced, The reader is told that it is operated by a Com- mission appointed by the Dominion Govern- ment and consists of three members, name- ly, Hon, W, L, Dougald, the chairman; Dr, Milton L, Hersey, and Emilien Daoust, The executive administration is in the hands of a general manager, The Commission has control over r the en- tire harbour which consists of 32 miles of waterfront on the 8t, Lawrence River, with the shores on both sides for some 16 miles, During the 1926 season of navigation, 1,421 ocean-going vessels having a net registered tonnage of 4,221,730 tons sailed from the Harbour of Montreal, Maps, tables of statistics, and an article on the construction of the new Harbour Bridge which will be two miles in length concludes the book which is not only a credit to the Commission and the great port which it serves, but to the Dominion at large, EDITORIAL NOTES Business is, of course, something of tread- mill, But the important thing is whether Your Treadmill is producing power, Shoes should be and they can be sold in sets of fours instead of in pairs. The public needs only a little education on the part of manufacturers to grasp the fact that all the shining in the world won't make a constantly worn shoe sanitary. Clothing factories will run on a year-round schedule when they realize that what the public really wants is Guaranteed Quality and not Sure-Fire Bargains, Dishonesty is dangerous stuff, It's really laziness, A journeyman can turn over a washer on a bathroom fixture and tell the widow that it's "fixed" but there's always a boarder to do the real fixing and find the handiwork of a crook. "Better Business" is a fine slogan when there are better salesmen to back it up, Water seeks its level and the success level of commerce is the inspiration of the boss, There is only one place for the grouch in a store and that's on the buying side of the counter, A contented workman fs an interested workman. Salary, hours, conditions are merely incidentals to a man whose job means something. Most men go shopping under protest be- cause in about eight cases out of ten 2 man is sold through his pride and not through his sense of values.
