Central Committee Recommended Oshawa might well take heed of the advice which has been given to the Hamil- ton City Council in connection with relief administration of that city by J. A. Ellis, secretary of the provincial unemployment committee. In Hamilton, apparently, relief conditions have been far from satisfactory to the provincial body, largely on account of charitable organizations and the city's relief organization all being engaged in the same work, and all claiming the govern- ment grants. Mr. Ellis flatly tells the city of Hamilton that if the present system continues, there will be no assistance from the government. : It is not suggested that a similar condi- tion to that exists in Oshawa, but Mr. Ellis goes on to give Hamilton some advice: He urges that a relief committee be appointed by the city council, and that where relief funds have been raised by charitable organizations, these be turned over to the city, and the government would still supply its two-thirds grant towards such funds. Mr. Ellis, according to the despatch from Hamilton, also urges "That the relief committeq be composed not. entirely of members of the city council, but that it take the form of a Welfare Board. including council members and representa- tives of these organizations which are con- tributing to the relief fund." This suggestion, coming from Mr. Ellis is worthy of attention. It should also be noted that it coincides almost exactly with the recommendations made by the Oshawa Citizens' Advisory Relief Comniittee. This makes these recommendations all the more powerful, since they show that Oshawa needs what Hamilton needs, and what the provincial director of relief has asked that . Hamilton undertake. Straws show in which way the wind is blowing, and it is evident that Mr. Ellis has been doing some check- ing. Tt might be worth while for Oshawa to set its house in order and have a central relief organization functioning before Mr. Ellis begins to check on this city. Will It Succeed ? 'After dragging on for months with no apparent progress being made, the world disarmament conference has suddenly come to life. Perhaps it has become ap- pareripy that the question of disarmament is inextricably involved in the question of . war debts and reparations, with. their gfects on international financing. Whatever the reason, the three nations chiefly concerned in the disarmament ques- tion, Britain, France and the United States, have awakened to the fact that something happened to justify the conference being eoptinued. France has abandoned the pro- ject of setting up a large international police force under the League of Nations, 'and is prepared to listen to suggestions for a tangible holiday in armaments. Britain 'and the United States have resumed con- 'versations with a view to bringing a speedy rreement. All of this seems encouraging. It may that pressure is being brought to bear the nations of Europe by the United tates. The United States must realize at some substantial readjustment of war s, if not complete cancellation, is made contingent on a sharp reduc- on in armaments. "That is what things look like at present. hatéver the reason behind it, a sincere ifort is apparently being made to reach me plan whereby the world disarmament erence can be brought to a speedy and cessful conclusion. Whatever the plan the people of the nations involved will n in a prayer that it may succeed in aching the desired goal. The Weekend Toll "Twelve Drowned and Three Killed is io's weekend death toll." was the heading which appeared iday's issue of The Times. With ne change, perhaps, in the actual figures, the heading which can be used prac- lly every weekend during the summer It is a regrettable and deplorable e to nak these reports week e obs ince of some simple rules would obviate many of these deaths, particularly those from drowning, which have crowded automobile fatalities into the background. Taking notice of the fact that the bulk of drowning accidents involve young peo- ple, often young men who thought they were reasonably good swimmers, Dr. Ern- est H. Lines, chief medical 'director of the New York Life Insurance Company, gives the following twelve safety rules, which we believe are worth passing on without any further comment: "1. Do not go swimming alone or at night, "2. Don't overestimate your. strength. Because you have been able to swim a cer- tain distance several times that day, does not mean that you will be able to do it again. "3. Never gwim across a lake or river or from headland to island, etc., or in unknown or dangerous waters, unless accompanied by a boat and a strong, level-headed companion trained in life-saving. A sudden channel of icy water, fatigue, undertows, cross cur- rénts or treacherous tides, may carry you to your death, "4, At the first opportunity learn how to rescue drowning persons without unduly endangering your own life and léarn how to administer artificial respiration. "5. Do not attempt to swim to a drown- ing person's rescue in rough or deep water unless no other help is immediately at hand and you are confident you are capable of effecting a rescue without sacrificing the drowning person's, as well as your own life. '"6. If possible before starting to a rescue, call to someone to get a rope, or a hoat. If you are dressed, remove shoes, coat and trousers--an extra second or two removing clothing is time well spent. "7. Don't for at and never swim beyond your Severe indiges- tion or muscle cramps may result, '"8. Never drink any cold beverages im- mediately before going swimming. "9. Skylarking in a boat is dangerous. Learn how to enter and leave boats and canoes and how to manage them propérly. Beware of sudden squalls and storms, strong winds and a choppy sea. "10. Don't duck or 'tease' your friends who are not as good swimmers as yourself. This may create a panicky mind whieh in an emergency may result in their death, "11. Teach your friends who are poor swimmers to go bathing in pairs, (prefer- ably with someone else who is a good swim- mer), to stay in shallow water, to beware of hidden holes and sudden drops in the sea shelving, and to beware of heavy breakers and undertows, "12. Never dive in unknown, shallow or rocky waters. Even in clear watérs remem- ber that a deep dive is a dangerous dive." swim least two hours after eating, depth in very cold water. Editorial Notes In certain tribes in the East Indian Is- lands. crooners are thrown to the croco- diles, says a report. What a lovely country that must be to live in. Those who have been threatening Peter Thomasina of this city are liable to find out that Black Hand methods in this coun- try invariably end in jail terms. We wonder if Monday's eviction of an unemployed veteran and his family is the beginning of a campaign of evictions by property-owners of the city. That rainstorm yesterday afternoon was what is usually referred to as a "million- dollar rain," for the moisture was very much needed. : Other Editor's Comments MILLIONAIRE SUICIDES (Owen Sound Sun-Times) It is such deaths as that of Edward Swift which should cause men of large business interests to stop for a while and take stock of themselves; to ascertain whether they are going to find them- selves capable of standing up under the strain, After all monev and the power which goes with it are but temporary and mean nothing in the face of broken health and little relief from a constant drive for more and still more business. If these men who stand high in the financial and business world would onlv take time off occasionally, get away from their activities, indulge in more recrea- tion, interest themselves more in looking after the comforts of their fellow-men, take more pleasure out of their home life. they would be happier, get a bigger kick out of life and would end thei earthly careers honorably instead of in a coward! fashion.

A COMMITTEE GIVES FACTS OF CASE (Continued from page 1) Mr. Grimshaw was employed for a large portion of May and drew $49.50 pay from the Malleable Iron Co. on May 30. The Star does not mention the fact that in spite 'of this pay on the day previously Mr. Grimshaw applied for relief on the following day, May 31, and incid- entally it was on that day that he was refused assistance by the re- lief department, the grounds being that he had just received mearly fifty dollars in payment for work done, the relief department, and we think rightly, being of the opin- fon that he should have been in a position to do without direct re- lief for a few weeks. "Whether he repaid rent to any person,--if so it was to the Asso- ciated Welfare Societies,--was of no interest to the relief department and was not discussed with Mr. Grimshaw by the relief officer, Statement Ridiculous "The statement in The Star that 'the relief officers even would not allow the Board of Health to sup- ply medicines,' attributed by The Star to Mrs. Grimshaw, is ridicu- lous. The relief department has no jurisdiction over the activities of the accredited executive officer of the Board of Health, and the M.O.H. must, and does, act on his own initiative in all cases where he sees the necessity. Statement Surprising "Further, and lastly, The Star says 'Miss Farncomb has it in for us because I wouldn't allow our daughter to take a job as maid in a house where there was: scarlet fever,' this statement being credited by The Star to Mrs. Grimshaw. The facts are that one of the daughters has found employment in an Oshawa home where she would assist in housework and the care of children. The mother in this home was ailing but unable to pay very much for help. It was another case of 'its the poor who help the poor." The report in Sat- urday's issue of The Star was the very first that I or any other mem- ber of the relief department, in- cluding Mise Farncomb, had ever heard about any scarlet . fever. Rather surprising Willing To Give Facts "I would like to say in conclus- ion," said Ald. Boddy, "that any representative of any newspaper who wishes to discuss any par- ticular problem or case with any representative of the City Council will always find Mayor Hawkes in his office between ten and eleven o'clock every morning. Ald. Babe is usually around the city relief de- pot, Miss Farncomb is generally available. Any one of these people will be glad to give the proper facts to any reporter but 1 do wish, and the eommittee as a whole wishes, that newspapers®*would at least get official information on matters which they make the subject of any report." Mr. Grimshaw Present Mr. Grimshaw was present at the committee meeting last night dur ing the discussion of his case and was finally convinced that his at- titude towards the committee had been incorrect. The whole matter was discussed with Mr. Grimshaw most amicably and courteously by the committee, and at the conclus- fon of the meeting the man him- self agreed that he had been dealt with most fairly. In reply to questions from the committee he stated that at pres ent he is working at Fittings Ltd. four days a week and five hours each day, his earnings being eleven or twelve dollars a week He had been quite idle, however, from May 20 to June 6, and this had created difficulties, especially as his wife is not well. One of his daughters obtained employ: ment last week. As regards the report in The Star Mr. Grimshaw told the com- mittee "I think they drew rings around what was told them and jumped to their own conclusions as well." Maple Grove (Miss Marion Snowden, Corres- pondent) MAPLE GROVE, June 21.-- Large crowds gathered in our shed on Sunday to attend the anniversary services. Rev, C. E. Cragg, King Street Church, Oshawa, gave an interesting talk to the boys and girls in the ai- ternoon and preached a splen- did sermon in the evening. Special music was provided by the Sunday School. Miss B. E. Souch, Orono, favoured with a vocal solo both afternoon and ev- ening which was much enjoyed by everyone. Monday afternoon sports were enjoyed by the chil- dren. At 4.30 a game of softball was played by the Maple Grove and Bowmanville Trail Rangers. the latter team winning by a large score. At 6 o'clock a league game of ball was played between Maple Grove and Hamp- ton boys, the home team win- ning. Tea was served at 4 o'- clock. In the evening a spieu- did play, entitled "The Road Back," was put on by the Young People of St. James' Church, Pet- erboro.
