In the morning service he spoke on the "Resurrec- tion of Jesus Christ" and proved this by not only the New Testament but the Old as well. He showed the un- belief of the disciples until they saw Christ after His resurrection, and he urged the congregation to be faith- ful and sincere. In the afternoon he gave an interesting lecture on the life of the late Commissioner Law- ley, giving incidents of personal ac- quaintance with him, while in the evening service his subject was "And He Was Missed," showing the great need being ready.

It is of course con- tended that eighteen constables would be able to apprehend more transgressors against the law than a force of eleven men could. It must also be remembered in mak- ing comparisons that the city's populaton was larger in 1928 than in 1926. Last year the assessor's figures gave the city a population of 24,139 people while two years previous the population was 17,- 386 thus showing an increase of 38.8 per cent. Liquor Law Violations According to figures supplied through 'the courtesy of Chief Friend there were 432 convictions under the L.C.A. in 1928 as against 196 convictions under the O.T.A. for 1926. The percentage increase is 120.4 per cent as against an increase in population of 38.8 per cent. During 1928 there were 19 per- sons convicted here on a charge of being intoxicated while operating motor, vehicles as against 12 per- sons convicted . for a similar of- fense in 1926. The percentage in- crease is therefore 58.2 per cent and in greater proportion to the increase in population. Convictions for theft also in- creased from 49 to 75 or 53.06 per cent. Convictions for non- support jumped from 2 in 1926 to 7 last year or an increase of 250 per cent, Assault Cases Assault, which is an offence of- ten associated with drunkenness, increased from 26 to 55 convie- tions or 111.5 per cent while the population increase was 38.8 per cent, ~ Chief Friend gave out these figures upon the request of, The Times, He declined to discuss the merits .of the Liquor Control Act and the Ontario Temperance Act, although he expressed the opinion that he did not think that the L. C. A. was responsible for the increase of crime in Oshawa. MANY VISITORS AT LUNGHEON OF ROTARY CLUB BOWMANVILLE AND WHITBY WELL REP- RESENTED Oshawa 'Will Probably Send Party to Boys' Training School Fair The visit of Dr. Teyhi Hsieh, noted Chinese speaker, to the Osh- awa Rotary Chub today brought out the largest attendance that has heen recorded at a club lunch- eon for several months. The gath- ering also included a large num- ber of visitors, including a party of Rotarians from Bowmanville and a number of prominent citi- zens of Whitby, The guest from the longest distance was Rotarian Willard Bailey, from San Jose, California, who was given a spe- cially warm greeting. The Bow- manville visitors were Thomas Holgate, Charles Mason and Frank Morris. Rotarian George Allen. 'of Hamilton, and Thomas Buchanan and Alex Chicholm, of Toronto, were also introduced. The party from Whitby was made up of Judge Thompson, Rev. Dr. C. R. Carscallen, Dr. -G. H. Stevenson, F. A. McIntyre, G. L. McDougall; J. R, Ormiston and . L. Beacroft. There were also several Oshawa men present as guests.. Training School Fair An interesting announcement made hy President George Hart was to the effect that the annual fair of the Boys' Training School at Bowmanville is to be held there on Tuesday, September 24, when the gymnasium erected through the ' efforts of various Rotary DR. TEYHI HSIEH GAVE ADDRESS ON 'THE NEW GHINY mene INTENSELY INTEREST- ING SPEAKER AT ROTARY CLUB Pays Tribute to Part cf Christian Leaders in Developing China An intensely interesting address on the new development of China, in which much credit was given to the work of the Christian mission aries in that land, was given to the | Oshawa Rotary Club today by Dr. Teyhi Hsieh, managing director ox the Chinese Board of Trade for the North American continent. Dr. Hsieh proved a most interests ing luncheon speaker, his humor- ous remarks interspersed through- out his address giving it a spice rarely found in an after-dinner address. Dr. Hsieh told the Rotary Club that he was the first Chinese admitted to membership in the Shanghai Rotary Club, and was al 80 an honorary member of the Bal- timore and Glasgow Rotary Cluos. The National Emblem At the opening of his address, Dr. Hsieh unfurled the new Chin- ese national emblem, of red with a blue corner, on which was in- scribed a rising sun in white, Seven of the ten members of the Chinese cabinet at the present time are Christians, the speaker declared. 'Eighty per cent of the leading spirits of-China today are Christian, and that is the real hope of the country," Dr. Hsieh decla:- ed. | Evolution, Not Revolution | The Chinese "rumpus," Dr. | Hsieh termed it, or the iiderna. trouble in that land, was not revo- lution, but evolution. It was large- ly bloodless ,and the evolution of China would be written in ink, not in blood, he declared. 'The Chin- ese population of 480 millions is awakening, but if it were not rus the Christian gospel, there wou not be a republic in China today," he said. as Need of Leaders China must have leaders from the outside, the speaker declared, if it was to develop and adopt mod- ern ideas. Missionaries, doctuis and Y.M.C.A. workers from Eng- land, Canada and the United States were going into the country and supplying this need of leadership. "China for the Chinese? Nothing of the kind. China is welcoming the leaders the Christian nations are gending into the country, and the opportunity for its native sons to go to western universities and secure an education. European, Canadian and American leaders are theg reatest forces in the develap- ment of commercial China today," he declared. The New Regime Formerly, China placed the scho- lar first, the farmer second, the craftsman third and the merchant fourth. But today, the miltarist was first in power, with the mer- chant second. The Chinese General Chamber of Commerce, with 'the backing of hundreds of merchant guilds and of the economic leaders of China, was the invisible govern- ment, and it was through this or- ganization that foreign loans were organized. 'The Nanking Goveru- ment has promised to pay every | cent of the debt incurred under the old regime, because it has the back- ing of the Chamber of Commerce, and a Chinaman's word is as good as his bond. What other nation would do that? ' The Soviet gov- ernment 'did not agree to pay the Czar's debts--its repudiated them. but the*Chinese government is aQu- ing something that no other nation would do," he declared. No Lunatic Asylums China did not have one lunatic asylum, the speaker declared. The Chinaman's high regard for his family meant that he would take care of all members of his family, no matter how irresponsible tney were. In fact, for centuries it had been the custom for one half of an estate, upon the father's death, to be get aside in the family vault, and only one half passed on to the descendants. Thus there was al- ways a reserve to fall back upon to take care of unfortunate mem- bers of the family. "In China, there are no young bloods sport- ing around with a fortune; there is no conspiring to get your rich uncle into an asylum to get his wealth. Lawyers cannot get rich on widows in litigation. over es- tates, because the widow is autor matically the executrix of the es- tate." The western world need not fear the cheap labor of China in regard to manufacturing operations, for it would take fifty years for Catia to wake up sufficiently to have ex- tensive enough industries to absorb a large percentage of the labor, he said. Today, it cost so much more (Continued on page 2) Clubs of Ontario will be officially handed over to Premier Ferguson. It is likely that a large party of Oshawa Rotarians will beo rganiz- ed to make the trip to Bowman- ville for that occasion. Announcement was also made that the final softball game be- tween the Rotarians and the Kins- men will be held at Rotary Park at 6.15 p.m, on Thursday of this week. Club For Whitby At the close of the meeting, the Oshawa directors and the Whithy and Bowmanville representatives Lord Willingdon's Visit To Oshawa Postponed on Account of Indisposition The visit of His Excellency Vis- count Willingdon, Governor-General of Canada and Lady Willingdon to this city today was postponed in- definitely on account of the indis- position of the Governor-General, ac- cording to a message received from his secretary by Mayor Mitchell late Saturday evening. Viscount Willingdon and his 'party left Toronto 'for Ottawa Saturday night, and itis understood that all of his engagements mave been cancel- led for some time. The Governor- General had gone to Toronto to at- tend the ceremonies in connection with the centenary of Upper Canada College, but did not attend any of the functions on Friday, as he felt indisposed. Saturday morning he decided to keep a 'golf engagement at the Rosedale golf club, but was seized: with a fainting spell on the course and physicians. advised him that rest was imperative. The vice- regal party left as soon as possible for Ottawa. Waiting Further Word Several Ontario cities besides Osh- awa, which the Governor-General had planned to visit, also received notifi- cation that his engagements were cancelled. Final details had heen arranged by the special committee appointed to take care of teh civic reception to the vice-regal party here today, and the committee is marking time pending the receipt of further word from Ottawa as to when the Governor-General may be able to pay his official visit to this city. The platform erected at Memorial Park for the addresses this morning, is being left in position, and other ar- rangements have been postponed only temporarily. The schools were some- what disrupted this morning, classes were held whereas it had been ex- pected that the scholars would have joined in the reception today. Citizens of this city were informed of the cancellation of the Governor- General's visit through the medium of announcements in the local thea- tres Saturday night, and in the chur- ches Sunday morning. Bulletins were also placed in front of the Armories and of The Times' office announcing the cancellation of the visit. Announced on Radio Many of the citizens of Oshawa had their first warning that Lord Willingdon was indisposed, and might be unable to fulfil his engage- ment to visit Oshawa, when they heard it announced over the radio on Saturday night about ten o'clock. This announcement was made by Professor Stephen Leacock, who was acting as chairman of the centenary dinner of Upper Canada College, at the Royal York Hotel, in Toronto from where the speeches were being broadcast, Viscount Willingdon has been announced as one of the speak- ers, and was to have responded to the ' toast of "The British Empire." When the time came for him to speak, however, Professor Leacock announced that, owing to indisposi- tion, His Excellency Viscount Wil- lingdon had been forced to cancel his engagement. The news came as quite a shock to many of those who were listening in on this program in Oshawa, as there had been no pre- vious intimation that Viscount Wil- lingdon was not enjoying the best of health. 'Police Chief to Make War On Unecessary Noises Shouting on the streets, promis cuons tooting 'of auto horns by mo- torists and all unnecessary noises which might disturb the slumber of peaceful citizens at night will be curbed by the local police depart- ment., Complaints have been receiv- ed from time to time by the police that human "night hawks" are mak- ing it impossible for law abiding Oshawans to get their rest. Chief Owen D. Friend has therefore issued instructions to all members of the force to wage war on noisc-makers. Learned scientists have often pro- phesied that noise constitutes a ser- ious menace to modern civilization The majority of citizens know little concerning the basis for such state- ments but they do resent being roused from sleep by those who would shout or sing on the streets. At such a time one longs to throw On Streets During Night a boot at the offendor, pepper him with shot from a shot-gun or douse his head with a pitcher of water, Unfortunately the noisy one is gen- eral out of reach of such means of punishment and there §s no other option but to lic awake patiently un- til the sand man can again get con- trol of the situation. . There -are some persons who de- light in exercising their vocal chords while navigating the public streets at a late hour. Others find pleasure in sounding their auto horns much to the discomforture of those who are lying abed. Henceforth their musical efforts will be subject to the criticism of the police and possibly the court, Oshawa is a busy city. Those drones who idle their time at night must respect the great body of citizens who find that to do a day's work they must have a night's rest, ~ Latest Financial News Market Summary by Canadien Prees Toronto and New York Stock Stable, Forlong and Ce.
