TUESDAY, ULY 16, 1929 THE TOLL OF DEATH ¢ becoming such that an editor might well keep a stock editorial on hand, to be printed cvery Monday or Tuesday, deploring the weekend toll of death by drowning or automobile accidents.. So serious has the weckly toll of death become--there were twenty-seven deaths 'during the past weckend--that there is a grave danger that the people of this province might become hardened to it, just as the people of the United States have done. It would be deplorable were such a condition to arise in Ontario. It is true that people have come to expect fatal accidents during the weekends. And this makes means - possible should be adopted to educate the people of the province towards safety. Legislation is futile in circumstances of this kind, for while the average person will drive and act safely, there are always those fools for whom legislation is of no 'benchit. It is impossible to legislate for them, and the weekly list of deaths makes one despair of ever educating them. : Yet editors have their duty to the public, and, in this instance, that duty consists of hammering away, day in and day out, at the problem, in the hope that pedple will be made to think more seriously of the hazards they are creating, both on the highways and on the lakes xud streams of the province. The toll of death spcaks for itself, and some day perhaps, it will speak loudly enough for everyone to hear and take notice. OLD AND NEW ONTARIO There was a helpful note to the address which W. E. N. Sinclair delivered to the Oshawa Rotary Club on Monday, dealing with his-recent trip to Nor- thern Ontario. Much has already been said and written regarding the untold resources, not alone in minerals and timber, but also in power and agricul- tural potentialities, of the north country, and he could add but little to that, Mr. Sinclair, however, had a helpful suggestion when he called upon the people of old Ontario to look on their entire province as one single entity. There has been somewhat of a tendency to look upon Northern Ontario as a place apart, as, in reality, another district of Canada altogether. Perhaps that feeling has been due to the vast distances of the north country, to its isolation from the older and more settled parts of the province. Yet, thanks to highway and railway development, the north is ever being drawn closer to the south, and a realization is growing that this rich area, not so long ago a kind of no man's land lying between Ontario and Mani- toba, really belongs to the province, that it is a vital and integral part of it, Ontario today is rcaping the benefits of its north country, and, as years go on and the development there proceeds apace, these benefits will be multi- _ plied an hundred fold. But there is a danger that, unless the people of Ontario give the northern sec- tion of the province that recognition which is due to it as a part of the whole, there may be a strong movement for the creation of a new province, taking in that vast and wealthy domain which lies between Cochrane and the far western boundary of the province. . THE SOLDIERS' PARLIAMENT Conditions in Ontario ar In today's issue of The Times an interesting story is being started, the story of the Soldiers' Parliament of Ontario, as the convention of the Provincial Com- mand of the Canadian Legion is known. This is a "story which should be of interest, not only to the ex-service men of Oshawa, but to every citizen im- bued with instincts of loyalty. The Canadian Legion is an organization which stands by itself because of ~--~the nature of its membership. Its initiation ceremony was the bath of blood of the battlefields, and its tenets are those of continued service for the country and Empire. We believe that the readers of The Times will study these articles, since they show the viewpoint of the ex-service men of Canada on their own problems, and, in a larger way, on the problems of the uation as a whole. : FLYING THE UNION JACK One of the subjects given much consideration at the recent convention of the Ontario Command of the Canadian Legion was the habit of United States tourists of a certain type flying their own flag while touring through Canada, without flying a. Union Jack along with it. The ex-service men, having sacrificed so much for their flag, felt deeply this condition, since they believed it to be an insult to the Union Jack. So far, of course, there is nothing to compel a oo 3 it all the more necessary that every THE OSHAWA DAILY TIMES, TUESDAY, JULY 16, 1929 tourist from a foreign 'country to fly a Union Jack on entering Canada, The whole thing is a matter of courtesy, and is entirely voluntary on the part of the, visitor. Fortunately, those who give offense in this matter are in the minority, and, strange to say, many of them are but recent arrivals in. the United States. While the Canadian Legion asked tliat legis- -- 'be passed making it compulsory ha a Union | Jack if a foreign flag is flown, it is doubtful if the 'government will act on the matter. It is more than likely that the. situation will be left as at present, with the flying of the British flag an act of inter- | national courtesy which will earn for the visitor a measure of hospitality and goodwill which will not be extended to those who commit flagrant breeches of- this code of ethics. Fo REFUSING LIQUOR CLEARANCES A Canadian Press despatch fron Ottawa a few days ago stated that there is a growing impression in the capital that the Dominion government may change its policy with reference to liquor clearances to the United States, and that it would be no sur- prise were the government to refuse such clearances altogether, There is an inclination, the despatch states, on the part of the government, to yield to- the constant pressure which has been ei many sources to have this done, i Should this despatch prove true, it would give puch satisfaction to a large body of public opinion in this country, The deplorable conditions at the Canadian border, where sum-running and lawlessness have been going hand in hand, are largely due to the fact that the Canadian government looks on the export of liquor to the United States, in defiance of United States laws, as a legitimate business. So long as that view prevails, so long will there be extensive smuggling of liquor to the United States, with all that it entails, There are those people who may claim that it is none of Canada's business thatthe laws of the United States are being broken by liquor smugglers. Le- gally, that may be true under the present laws, but there is more than a legal obligation involved, There is a moral obligation upon the shoulders of Canada to assist her neighbour in the enforcement of a moral law, and the only way in which this country can give effective assistance is by closing the door to the promiscuous and legal, so far as Canada is concerned, --smuggling of liquor. HON. HERBERT MARLER (Montreal Star) Hon. Herbert Marler, minister without portfolio in a previous Liberal Administration, leaves Montreal tomorrow for a tour of Canada prior to embarking for the Orient to assume his new duties as Minister Plenipotentiary at Tokio, Mr. Marler is a son of Montreal and comes from a family which has served this city for several gen- erations. He is making great personal sacrifices in accepting the post to which he has been named. With characteristic thoroughness Mr, Marler has been pre- paring himself during the interval since his appoint- ment was announced by co-ordinating and checking that mass of political, commercial 'and economic knowledge which he has absorbed during many years as a student of public affairs and as a working par- liamentarian, The usefulness of his service to Canada will de- pend largely on the opportunities for service, which he may be able to create and his capacity for develop- ing them to the full. Mr, Marler will not only act as the Canadian Minister in all matters that require diplomatic intervention, bdt he will also act in an advisory capacity in' matters affecting the trade and commerce of the two countries, Mr. Marler has the qualities that go to make the successful representative. His graciousness of man- ner, his constant courtesy and his training in the ficlds of politics will help to equip him for his new task, while his working knowledge of trade and other conditions in all parts of the Dominion will increase his usefulness in the field of national effort. Mr, Marler's fellow-townsmen, by the spontaneity of their enthusiasm at the banquet recently tendered to him, showed their regard for, and their pride in the new Minister. He will carry to his new sphere the best wishes of his fellow-Canadians, EDITORIAL NOTES What could be better than being better?

THE DEMOCRACY OF GOLF (New York Telegram) Golf, which used to Be considered the rich man's recreation, 18 a pretty democratic sort of game, after all. L. B. Maytag, wealthy lowa wash- ing machine manufacturer, has spent thousands of dollars on golf lessons. Recently he entered the trans-Miss- issippi golf tournament, his heart set on winning first place. Like all en- ergetic golfers, he doubtless wanted that championship, right then, as badly as he wanted anything on carth But' he failed to get it. He was beaten in the finals by a youngster who used to be a caddy and who never was able to spend a dollar on lessons in his life. The democracy of the game tossed victory to the poor boy instead of to the rich man.

Barton, M.D. DEVELOPING ARCHES OF THE FEET I often wonder if folks with flat painful feet ever think what is hap- pening to their whole *body--physi- cally and mentally--as they pound along. Nature . provided a wonderful springy arch in the foot which was meant to take the "jar" off the whole body. When this arch loses its spring, and the foot goes flat on the ground then the whole weight of the body is allowed to reach or strike the ground. The jar from this goes right up the legs and spinal column to the brain. Nature has put cushions between the bones of the spinal column which lessens the jar somewhat, but noth- ing can take the place of a good springy well arched foot. One of the disappointing things you see every day is the individual, quite young, who has adopted arch supports and scems quite satisfied to usc them the rest of his life. Now there are times when it may be neccessary to wear arch supports awhile. You have been sick, or per- haps of a good weight, and nced support for your feet if you are to get about at all, But flat feet can be avoided or corrected in the majority of cases if you are willing to devote ten to twenty minutes of your time daily for that purpose, The simplest method is to walk across the room on the outside edges of the feet with the toes turned in- ward, 5 This forms the foot almost into the shape of a claw, and the more arched and claw like you can get your foot the more vou are developing the muscles that hold up the arch. Walking across the room this way, say six times night and morning, is nécessary, © Trying to pick up a ball or other object with the foot also develops the arch. Major von Gruher, a German medi- cal officer has invented a device where the patient is required to walk up and down a sort of staircase which makes it necessary to walk on outside edges of his feet, and to grip or claw the little wooden steps in order to hold on. If your arches are right down and rigid, then a properly fitted arch. sup- port 1s necessary. Don't wear arch supports until you have tried to develop an arch. If you fail to develop it then you are justi- fied in wearing arch supports. (Registered 'in accordance with the Copyright Act). R. W. WOODRUFF, PRESIDENT OF THE COCA-COLA COMPANY, SAYS: THAT this is an age of efficien- cy and higher productivity. Or- ganizations are working not long- er, but swifter, and with more certainty of result. The mind of the workman--whether laborer or executive--must be highly trained, and as a result he is able to produce a better product, quick- er. Production has become a science, and progress moves on wheels of applied wisdom. A chemist, mixing substances in his laboratory, knows the necessity of proportion, Scientists, studying the physical cffects of a life of constant application, tell us that there is a period of low vitality and impaired efficiency during cach day. It takes fuel to feed the fire. The executive must stop to think how these proportions can be main- tained, and how the period of low vitality can be met so as to keep the work going at full tilt. Today, the business executive is not only advocating shorter hours, but he is providing for periods of relaxation and refreshment during working hours. As a result, he is putting a better product on the market, and is adding to the efficiency of his organ* ization.

McIntyre Hood, Member Provincial Executive, and one of Oshawa's Delegates men. Article No. 1 The annual convention of the: Ontario Provincial Command of the Canadian Legion, held last week, was a memorable occasion for those who attended it. These conventions have become known as the parliament of the ex-service These men, and women, too, have problems _ peculiarly their own, "and they have the knowledge and the ability to suggest solutions for these problems beyond any other class in the community. The deliberations of such a convenuiou, therefore, are of more than passing interest to the province at large, They are, of course, of particular interest to the ex-service men, since their problems were for the most 'part under consideracion, but, on account of the close rela- tionship of these problems to the national welfare of Canada, they are also of interest to the general public as well. For the first time since the in- auguration of the Cnadian Leg- ion, the ex-service men of Oshawa were represented at a provincial convention of that body, which now has over 150 branches in the province. These representatives were J. T. Dalby, the president of the local branch, and the writer. Believing that the citizens of Oshawa are sympathetic to the problems of the ex-service men, and particularly those who are disabled, and of the dependents of the men who paid the supreme sac- rifice, the writer has consented to set forth, in a series of articles, some of the outstanding impres- sions of the convention, ai-- the gist of its discussions and resolu- fons. This is done solely because of the fact that it is believed that the people of Oshawa, in common with all other Canadians, have not forgotten the debt of gratitude which is owing to those men who offered themselves as the Em- pire"s defenders in its time of greatest need. The articles will appear from day to day until the full story has been told and it is in the hope that they will be of an edccational value, as well as of general interest, for the people of Canada at large have but little knowledge of the intimate details of ex-service men's problems, that they are presented. A Splendid Setting The 1929 convention of the On- tario Command of the Canadian Legion was by far the most suc- cessful eve held, both in point of achievement and in point of har- mony of thought and action. The setting for it was splendidly ar- ranged. The St. Thomas Branch of the Legion, long known as the most progressive and aggressive in Ontario, had been preparing for the great event for over a year, and when, on the day preceding the convention the delegates be- ; gan to arrive, they found that ev- erything that could be done for their convenience and comfort had been done by their comrades or St. Thomas. The billeting arrange- ments for delegates, the type of en- tertainment provided, the accom- modation for the convention itself in the 'splendid Arthur Voaden Technical School, left nothing to be desired, and gave the convention a splendid start to its business ses- sions. A general impression might be helpful to an understanding of the gathering. The Canadian Legion is essentially a.service club. It was born in the spirit of service, with the great object of continu- ing its service to the Dominion, and to the men comprising its membership, in time of peace, just as, in the days of war, the men comprising the Canadian Corps hag served their Dominion and their comrades. A New Ideal The day of an ex-service men's organization seeking to grab all it could get are gone. The Canadian Legion, born out of the travail of a host of former organizations, is built on a higher plane, In the forefront of its program is loyalty to the Empire, to the throne and to Canada. It stands for British principles and British justice, for the perpetuation, in times of peace, of those ideals and prin- ciples which impelled its members to serve their country and their Empire In time of war. And nv stands four-square in deterimna- tion to see to it that every disableu ex-service man or woman, and ev- ery dependent of the men who gave their lives on active service, or who have since died as the re- sult of their war service, are given the justice to which the people uv: Canada believe them entitled. Sane and Reasonable Much of the work of the Canadi- an Legion is done in the back- ground, the spade work which paves the way for legislation de- signed to remove injustices which have existed for the last ten years. Some remarkable things have ween accomplished in the way of reme- dial legislation since the Legion came into being, but there is still much to be accomplished. The sucecss which the Legion has at- tained in this direction has been made possible because, as the Hon. J. C. Elliott said at the conven- tion, the requests of the Legion have been sane, reasonable, well- considered and eminently fair, to such an extent that when extensive legislation was brought berore the House of. Commons at its 192% session, it was passed by unani: J mous consent of the whole house. This was a striking tribute to the thoroughness with which the Can- adian Legion paved the way ror this legislation, and considered well, in advance, its effects, not only on the ex-service men, but on the welfare of the Dominion as a whole. Pointed Forward The 1929 convention at be Thomas pointed forward rather than backward. The delegates came there not with grievances, but with constructive proposals. They came, not with demands, but with requests for consideration rus certain principles which they be- lieved were vital to the attainment of their aims and principles. And these were discussed with as much thought and deliberation as are any quetsions coming before even the highest legislative body in the land. There were no traces of radicalism nor Bolshevism. In- stead, there was a strong note ov loyalty to British institutions and Birtish traditions to fair play and justice. The Canadian Legion, at its St, Thomas convention, went on record as demonstrating, for all timé, the intense sanity of its mem- bership, the realization of the ex- service men that their greatest in- terest lay in the building up of a greater Canadian nation. They demonstrated, above all, that, in the days of peaee, they were still carrying forward the torch thrown to them by their comrades lying in graves overseas, and were placing before everything else, the welfare of the country for which they of- fered their lives. Considerations of their own needs. of the needs of the disabled, took an important place but even these were based on the bedrock foundation of the ec- onomic welfare of Canada, rather than on any selfish aim of secur- ing any concesions for even the dis- abled classes. The Main Impressions Service for the country, a deter- mination to fight the battles of those unable to fight for them- selves, and a quiet expression of the hope that the day might soon come when there would be uo more war, but only an universal peace-- these were the main impressions gathering in the busy days at St. Thomas when the Soldiers' and Sailors' parliament of Ontario met in solemn convention to plan and do great things for the whole Do- minion of Canada. ' 'In the succeeding articles, the actual proceedings of the conven- tion, as seen from the committee room as well as from the conven- tion floor, will be considered and get forth, so that the readers of The Times may catch the spirit of the Legion, and place it in its proper place as one of the greatest assets of the country and the com- munity. (To Be Continued) YOUTHFUL HERO SAVES HIS CHUM Seventeen-year-old Detroit Boy Treads Water 15 Min- utes Amid Blazing Gas Chatham, July 16--Treading water while gasoline flames seethed around them, scorching their hair and eye- brows, Jack Bresnahan, 17-year-old son of a Detroit lawyer, kept the head of his 16-year-old companion, Bud Smith, above the surface of Rondeau bay for more than 15 minu- tes until rescue arrived. Bresnahan, yesterday was the hero of the little summer community of Erieau, where he is visiting with the Smith family, Pittsburg residents, who own a cottage on the shores of the bay. On Sunday the two boys had gone for a short cruise in an outbaord motor boat, Some distance from shore the gasoline tank ran dry and the younger boy set to work to re- plenish it from a five-gallon emer- gency can, Suddenly the can burst into flames, and in an effort to save the boat, Smith hurled it overhoard. 'he blazing gasoline, however, quickly spread across the waters and soon enveloped the little craft. The two boys jumped to the comparative satety of the lake and started out for the shore. Smith, however, soon got into difficulties and the older boy went to his aid. Too far from shore to attempt the swim with his companion's weight, Bresnahan grasped his companion firmly around the chest and trod water, while the patch of fire caught by a brisk breeze drifted closer and closer. Meanwhile their plight had been seen from the shore and rescuers hurriedly put out, racing toward the spot as the flames encircling the boys gradually crept in on their TODAY'S LIST OF | AUTO ACCIDENTS DRIVER FATALLY INJURED Montreal, July 16.--Attempting to avoid running over a dog in the path of his automobile, William Wilson, aged 36, of 96 Mariette Aventle, swerved and his car crash- ed into the front of an observation tramway on Saturday evening.
