¥ - First Boy Scout Jamboree Proved Great Success On THE OSHAWA DAILY TIMES, MONDAY, SEPTEMBER 22, 1930 PAGE THREE Discovery of Stolen Car May Be Clue to Identi y Of Hit-and-Run Motorist Auto Stolen From -Local Real Estate Dealer Corre- sponds Closely to Vehicle Which Killed John Fare- well, Witnesses Say GUILTY ONE MAY BE A JOY RIDER Car Was Recovered by Po- lice Saturday Morning -- Inquest Will Be Held Into Farewell's Death Developments which might ulti- mately lead to the arrest of the hit-and-run motorist who knocked down and killed John Farewell, 49 year old bachelor on Bloor street at 9.30 on Friday night have come to the notice of the police and it is thought that with the Information now at their disposal an early ar- rest will be made. William G. Miller. real estate agent of 609 Sommerville Avenue, reported to the police that he left his car, a description of which tal- lies very accurately with that of the car which witnesses claim hit Farewell, outside a local theatre while he went in to see the show. When he came out the car was gone and was recovered by police the next day abandoned on an Oshawa Street. This clue which appears to throw the guilt of the man's death on a joy rider in a stolen car, is being closely followed by the police It will be recalled that John Farewell had just alighted from a wagon driven by Russel Jollow, Base Line Farmer, near the city limits when the accident occurred. Jollow stated to the police that Farewell, after dismounting from the wagon, crossed to the north ride of the street where he stumbled and fell into the ditch. The unfor- tunate man was about to rise to his feet when an eastbound car struck him, causing his death in a very few minutes, Other witnesses gave a descrip- tion of the car that is thought to have hit Farewell and which pro- ceeded on its way gathering speed following the hitting of the man. This description, police state tal- lies accurately with that of the Miller car which the owner claimed was stolen the same evening. It is probable. that should the driver of the automobile be arrest. od a charge of manslaughter would be laid against him. A jury summoned on Saturday, viewed the remains of the unfor- tunate man and then adjourned until a later date yet to be set, Wife--"The dressmaker says she won't make me another dress until you pay her account, Husband -- "Splendid! T'll write and thank her."--Passing Show. v CHARGE LOCAL MAN WITH ATTEMPT T0 BREAK IN GARAGE Fred Roughley Arrested Af- ter Being Chased by Po- lice--Others Involved Frederick J. Roughley, of Celina street was arrested by the police on Friday night following an alleg- ed endeavour to break into Wat- son's Garage on the King's High- way west of Oshawa, He was charged on Saturday morning with attempting to break in and enter the building and it fs intimated by the police that three other local men are involved. The men, it is believed were attempting to force an entrance when surprised by po- lice who had received complaints of another garage beng broken into on the previous evening. The po- lice gave chase and effected the ar- rest of Roughley, who is in custody on remand on the charge stated above, No arrests were made in connec- tion with the breaking into the garage the previous night and ft is not known whether there is any connection between the two incl- dents, SOUTH-WEST WARD RATEPAYERS TO HOLD SOCIAL EVENING Opening for the Fall and Winter meetings The South West Ward I.

EXHIBITS OF SCOUT HANDICRAFT ARE OBJECTS OF PRAISE Scene in Northern Ontario Depicted by Local Troop ------ One of the outstanding events in connection with the Scouts' Jam- boree on Saturday afternoon was the showing of scout handicraft in the Women's Building in Alexan- dra Park, Here could be found scores of exhibits of work of the various scouts and scout troops. Some of these were particularly good and among those worthy of mention was the depicting of a scene in northern Ontario. This was complete with a background of cedars, a monkey bridge, double transom bridge, a stream with a small canoe resting on the quiet waters and a council square com- plete with a camp fire and log geats surrounding, This was ex- hibited by the 2nd Oshawa Troop and was highly regarded by the Judges. Other exhibts covered a wide range of articles, from a collection of coins to model airplaing and gliders, Exhibits of knot tying, leather work, model boats, bridges, collections of butterflies, flowers, vegetables, and even a pickled black snake made up a fine col- lection and showed plainly some of the very Interesting work eom- bintd in the teaching of the scout arts, HOUSE WILL RUSH ITS WORK TODAY (Continued from Page 1) three sittings of the commons are scheduled for today, the first at 11 an. The members of the senate will be within call to go into session at a moment's notice to do their part in rushing through the sole re maining piece of legislation. With this dead-line in front of the mem bers, there is an' air of tion and eagerness about the parlia- ment buildings today which probably will result in the official prorogation ceremonies being conducted by the governor-general some time late in the day. . After a 13-hour sitting on Satur. day, which opened at 11 am, and did not finish until a few minutes before midnight, about one-third of the individual tariff changes were passed by the House of Commons. To Hold Public Hearings Premier R. B. Bennett announced during the day, in response to urg- ings fram Rt. Hon, MacKenzie King, Liberal leader, that ublic hearings would be held befoPe the next session, at which persons affect- ed by the new tariff would be given an opportunity of presenting their grievances. All interested parties might appear although the premier wis unable to say how the tribunal would be formed or when or where it would sit Opposition members presented marked protest to several of the "I Love You but you have broken the law 12s and must pay!

Maxwell Preaches Fine Sermon to Troops 1] Who Paraded to St. An- drew's United Church -- Scouts Lay Wreath on City's War Memorial The value of being prepared was stressed by Rev. F. J. Maxwell, pastor of St. Andrew's United Church, in a splendid sermon to over 400 Boy Scouts in his church Sunday morning. The scouts, who attended the jamboree held un- der, the auspices of the Oshawa Boy Scouts' Association, paraded to the church in a body, led by the Ontario Regiment Band and a gcout bugle band. A large crowd of spectators watched them as they marched into the church, the standard bearers forming an alsle leading to the entrance, It would be difficult to imagine a finer lot of boys or a more refreshing spectacle as these lads, ranging in age from eighteen to eight, filed into 'the building. The founder of the Boy Scout movement made a wise decision when he gave as the watchword for all scouts the motto 'Be Pre- pared," Rev, Mr, Maxwell stated. This watchword was also found in the New Testament, the pastor claimed, and quoted Matthew 24, 44, where there appear the words "Be ye also ready." Several. incidents were taken from the Old Testament and the New Testament by the speaker showing the difficulties in which men and women found themselves because they were not prepared. The citizens of Sodom were not prepared to worship God or to live good lives and as a result God destroyed their city, At one time the people of the earth were so wicked and corrupt that God sent Pastor Stresses Value of Preparation In Sermon to Boy Scouts Sunday Morning a great flood and destroyed them utterly saving only Noah and his family because of the fact that they had prepared themselves to live worthy lives. Jerusalem, the pastor stated, was unprepared to accept Christ as her saviour and as a result the city was al most completely ruined by con- quest 40 years after Christ's time, only the Christians escaping in a way which was truly miraculous, When a great man was one time asked the secret of his success he repHed that he could answer the question in three words, 'Prepara- tion, preparation and prepara- tion." "As Boy Scouts," Rev, Maxwell urged, 'prepare yourselves for your life work, prepare yourselves to play a worthy part as citizens of your country and prepare your- selves so that when you die you may be ready to meet your God." The speaker pad tribute to the Boy Scout organization and stated that by living up to its rules of conduct boys and young men were preparing themselves in the right way. Previous to the service the Scouts had paraded to the Garden of the Unforgotten where in sol- emn silence and reverence a beau- tiful wreath was placed at the base of the city's war memorial and the Scouts paid tribute to those men who saerificed their lives in the cause of. freedom overseas, A bugler sounded "The Last Post" and the Boy Scout troops stood at attention pnd in prayerful silence until the notes of the "Reveille" rang out joy- ously and clearly on the Septem- ber morn. Following the church service the Scouts, with the Ontario Regl- mental Band and the bugle band in the van, marched to the Ar- mories where dismissal marked the conclufion of the greatest scouting event ever held in this district. CITY AND DISTRICT NEWS CASE DISMISSED A charge of doing wilful dam- age preferred against Harry Mar- chuk of Olive avenue was dis- missed in police court this morn- ing when the accused made an alibi to the effect that he was at home when the alleged offence was committed. He was accused of wilfully damaging a tomato patch of another resident on Olive avenue at 11 p.m. on August 29 but produced a witness to show that he had not left his house from shortly after ten o'clock that evening until the next morning. REMANDED FOR ONE WEEK William Gammon and Minnie Jammon, brother and sister were charged in police court this morn- ing with a serious offense. They were remanded for one week, ROBBERS ENTER LAUNDRY During the late hours of Friday night or the early hours of Sat- urday morning robbers broke into and entered the plant of the Osh- awa Laundry on Mill Street, The marauders turned the safe over and had evidently attempted to break it open without success. Police are investigating. RASPBERRIES IN SEPTEMBER Mrs. Fred Marshall, Lakeview Gardens, had an unusual experi- ence this morning. for this time of year when she went into her garden and was able to pick from rasp- berry bushes a quart basket of lus- clous red berries. These berries are of the Cuthbert variety. It is the second crop of berries on the bushes this year, duty increases. The higher tariff on gasoline and the advances in the duty on window glass came in for criticism despite the declaration made my Premier Bennett that he had secured assurances from the t manufacturers concerned that no price increase would follow the changes. There was criticism, also for the increases in the duty on agri- cultural implements, The glass and the gasoline items finally passed through but no action was taken on Market ---- Toronto Stock Exchange Stock High Br.

MOORE MAKES MAIDEN SPEECH ON CUSTOMS ACT BILL Remarks of Riding Member Have Particular Import- ance Due to Experience W. H. Moore, Liberal member for this riding, made some thoughtful and interesting com- ments in his maiden speech on the floor of the House of Parliament on Tuesday, September 16, Mr, Moore was speaking om a bill to amend the Customs Act and as former chairman of the Dominion Tariff Board increasad importance must be attached to his remarks which are reported in Hansard as follows: Mr. W. H. Moore (Ontario): 1 have attempted as closely as pos- sible to follow the debate on this bill but I have either been confused or have felt that there was confusion on the part of some other hon. mem- bers in this house. I believe that the confusion has arisen through the misuse of the word dumping. : hon, Minister of Finance, (My! fictt) in the resol ister of National Revenue Ryckman) will correct me if 1 am wrong in the statement that the dumping law is contained in the cus- toms tariff, whereas bill No. 3 is designed to amend the Customs Act. The Customs Act does not deal with dumping, if we adhere to the techni- cal use of the term. As the Minis- ter of National Revenue has said clause 1 refers to market value. That is simply a further interpretation of the use of the words contained in section 35. I have no quarrel to find with section 1 of this bill; as a mat- ter of fact I think it is a good sug- gestion, and I believe in the amend- ment, Section 2 deals with a peculiar class of importation, the importation of goods which may not be sold in the ordinary way, which may ncver be sold to wholesalers and may never | pass out of the hands of the manu- | facturers until they reach the hands !of the customers. As stated in the | memorandum, it is an amendment. of lan old section, No. 37, concerning | which there was some difficulty of (Continued on Page 8) REFUSE INFORMATION ON DUMPING DUTIES (By Canadian Press Leased Wire) Ottawa, Sept. 22.---By a vote of 96 to 58 the House of Commons this morning declined to make an order 'for a return showing the number of cases in which the dump- ing duty has been refunded after being collected, during the past twelve months, wth particulars in each case." The motion was made by E. J. Young (Lib. Weyburn) and when it was called Hon. E, R.
