Herbert Nominati ns Tuke Place For Councillors and School Trustees Dec. 29 Councillors Campbell and Jones Will Not Likely Be in the Field--Other Mem- bers Are Non-committal ELECTION DATE SET FOR JANUARY 5TH Mayor Elliott Has Not De- cided What He Will Do Yet--Council"s Work for Year Is Reviewed With the bylaw at Monday night's meeting of the Town Council provid- ing for nominations of those desir- ous of being candidates, either for council or for the Public School Board, the minds of the great major- ity of Bowmanville people will turn to municipal politics. The question asked all over the town is "who is going to run for council this year?' Naturally we are just as interested in this mattter as any other citizen and as an aid, or rather an intended aid, we made it our business to in- vestigate the lay of the land for the ~oming election. Councillor Campbell was the first man approached and as we expected he will not be running. This not naturally a desire on his part to cease his activities on behalf of the town nor is it the desire of the general public. Mr. Campbell had done his work conscientiously and to the best of his ability and from careful watch ing one cannot say that he has wast- ed his time while a member of the council. However, with his appoint- ment as acting magistrate he is un- able to take a seat on the council and thus is cut of muniicpal politics for at least twelve months. Councillor Reg. Jones wag noncom- mittal when approached but we are practically assured that he too will be out of the arena this year. The rest of the council were very uncommunicative and the general ar.- swer to a query concerning thir in- tentions was "I have not given it a thought yet." This may be so, surely with the election so near some of the members must have some idea what they intend to do. Ps Mayor Elliott, when asked would not say whether or not he will be a candidate for a third year for the mayoralty. Mr. Elliott has received an acclamation two years in succes- sion and while he has conducted the affairs of the council and the town in an efficient and capable manner during his tenure of office, citizens in general appreciate a battle for the honor of being Mayor of the town. While the Mayor would not state his intentions it is generally believed that he will again be in the field. Reeve Carruthers was also non- commital giving the same old pre- election statement, "1 have not given it a thought yet," but the reeve has been a of the c il for a number of years and while he has come up step by step until he reached the reeve's chair it is not an idle thought to believe that he wili at least defend his seat as Reeve with the bare possibility that he may zon- test the Mayor's chair, This latter assumption, however, is doubtful, for next year the Warden of the United Counties is chosen from Durham County 2nd Reeev Carruthers being directly in line for this, the greatest municipal honor, in the counties, is not likely to throw away any chance of becoming warden. So it might be taken for granted that Reeve Car ruthers will be in evidence on the night of Decembe: 29 to fill in lus nomination papers. Deputy Reeve Rehder is a little of an enigma when it comes to munici: pal politics. At any time he is dif- ficult to secure any information from and on Monday night, when question ed, just answered "Who wanls to know." The enquirer stated in re turn that he wanted to know but his knowledge was wanted for the gen: eral public who are vitally interested in who is to control the destinies of their town in the next year. Other members of the council were equally non-committal when ap- proached but citizens can be reason: ably assured that Councillor Lock hart has done much good work dur ing the year and while his schemes have been the cause of the spending of a large sum of money, neverthe- less, the money had to be spent on work or on relief and citizens gener ally would rather see, and unemplov ed would much prefer to work for their living than receive it in relief king Back Looking back over the current year one must say without any doubt at all that this 1930 council has been sorely tried and have acquitted them selves well. Much has been accom- plished in the year. Every depart- ment has gone over their estimates and while in normal years this might mean the defeat of the members in the election following, this year should be viewed as an abnormal year, and a year in which the cotin- cil was faced with a serious crisis the only cure for which was the spend ing of money. No doubt after the fifteenth of the month a large deficit will be noticed but Bowmanville will not be alone in this matter. Prac- tically every municipality in the prov- ince will face the self same situation which, owing to the depression, could not possibly have been averted. Therefore when citizens are faced with the task of electing their new council they must bear in mind the difficult task the present council have had to contend with, They must re- made expenditures they have done so with a view of getting value for the ratepayers money. Had these relier expenditures not been made then the town would have been forced to Spend a huge sum on relief for which there would be no tangible returns other than the knowledge that they had taken care of those in ned. Dur- ing the next few weeks much will be said about the outgoing council, their failings and their shortcomings, their successes and their goed works, but before any condemnation is made 1or the heavy expenditures made during the year due thought should be given to the abnormal condition which even the council, who are blamed for al- most everything that goes wrong. had no control whatsoever. Boy Electors Hold Mass Meeting in Bowmanville Large Number Attend Meeting in St. Paul's Sunday School Room--Candidates Are Introduced A mass meeting of the boy elec- tars of Bowmanville and district was held in St, Paul's Sunday School Room on Monday evening, Dec. 1st.

The police in Adelaide say there are hundreds of men in the Port, who, while not avowed Comm- unists, would follow any course that sporadic ou'breaks of rioting and dis- | formented by communists | promised excitement and a new shuf- fle of the cards, Sydney is the headquarters of the party. Five known Reds are on the Sydney Trades and Labor Council Thousands are to be found on 'he waterfront. Brisbane is fairly strong, and apart from the Communist Party of Australia itself, there are a round dozen o organizations, under various names, always changing, which are really Communist in their aims and are governed by the party machine from Moscow. It is estimated by those who are most familiar with the personnel and methods of the Communist party of Australia that its strength and meth ods has increased almost 100 percent in the last year, an increase due to "favorable" social conditions--~unhap- piness, unemployment, poverty--and as these are spreading, so Commun- ist opportunities for mischief are en- larging. What money comes from Russia to pay for the elaborate or- ganization, the teachers, the speakers, the builders of sedition, is not known with certainty. The Australian authorities act with a firm hand when Communist dis- turbances occur. A typical example was at Melbourne recently when nu- merous raids were carried out and prison' terms imposed. Melbourne police are determined to arrest ev- ery Communist possible. Loadzd batons and cartridges and much Rus- sian propaganda was sstzed there. Communists were taken to the city jail in cartloads, The police allege that the pre- sent time Communists are mixing unemploymed and inciting them to violence, Communists were conspic- uous in a big parade of unemployed | in Melbourne and their conduct was offensive. Women Comueunists leap- ed on the running boards of motor- cars and male Communists walked slowly before street cars, all their acts being with the object of arousing disturbances, TRAFFIC IS HEAVY ON BOUVERIE STREEH (By Canadian Press Leased Wire) London , Dec. 4--Bouverie street the howe of famous newspapers, is now a one-way street and only traf- fic moving from north to suuth-- Fleet street to Tudor street -- is permitted thereon.
