The Problem of Shelter The issuing of eviction notices to a num- ber of Oshawa families which are on city relief has apparently had the effect of stimulating the city council into action. The property owners involved, it seems, have tired of waiting for the council and its relief committee |to enunciate some policy on this question of shelter, are en- deavoring to force the issue by giving notice to tenants in arrears with their rent to vacate the premises. One can hardly blame the property own- ers for losing patience with the council in its dilatory attitude regarding relief. The problem has been a serious one for some time, and the excuse has always been made that the council was waiting for the gov- ernment to take some action. In Kitchen- er; as the survey made by Ross Mackinnon some months ago revealed, the city council did not wait for the government, but went ahead and paid rents in order to provide shelter for families in distress. And the prov'acial government recognized these payments as genuine relief, and paid its proportion of them. In Oshawa, to a smaller extent, the gov- ernment has paid its share of the rents which have been met by the city council relief organization, and by the Associated Welfare Societies. Surely that was suf- ficient precedent on which to base a defin- ite 'policy. "The situation today is more serious than ever. Property owners are expected to pay their taxes, but in hundreds of cases their tenants have been unable to pay any rent for months, and in some cases, for one or two years. There has been no revenue from these properties, but the tax bills come in just the same. And, except in cases of extreme need, the relief committee has done nothing to help the situation. We do not suggest that that the city council should endeavor to pay arrears of rent. We do not suggest that the relief committee should pay the full rent for any of the tenants who are unable to pay. But we believe that the property-owners would be well satisfied with an agreement by which a sufficient amount of money would be provided to enable them to pay the tax- es on the properties from which they are receiving no rent from the tenants. That is. all they can expect, and that we feel sure, would satisfy them. But the policy of doing nothing about it until the com- pelling hand of eviction is raised, has gone on too long, and there is a limit to the patience of any individual. This situation brings forward very fore- ibly the need for a central emergency relief organization to deal with the whole relief situation in a concentrated fashion. For the last few weeks, the powers that be have forgotten all about the plans for the central body. But the people of Oshawa have not forgotten about them, and are wondering |when, if ever, the scheme which was so carefully prepared by the citizens' advisory relief committee, and shelved by the council, is going to be put into efect. ; The Wiser Plan :Rt. Hon. Mackenzie King, leader of the Liberal opposition in the House of . Com- mons has been wiser than some of his fol- lowers in his comments on the results of the Imperial Economic Conference. Some of them have been rushing into point, be- littling the results of the conference, and claiming that the results will be practic- ally nil. ; Mr. King is too good a politician for that. He realizes that the people of Canada, as a general rule, are well satisfied with - what has been done, that they are confi- dent that the efforts made at Ottawa will bear fruit in the form of wider markets for Canada's primary products, He, instead of going off half-cock, 'he has adopted a "wait and see" attitude, which is, perhaps, tHe wisest attitude of all. He could not be expected to praise the agreements made, because his business is opposition. But he has, at least, refrained from destructive _criticism until he has heard the whole story. AL We commend his attitude to others. The hopes of Canada are built on ,the agree- ments made at Ottawa. People in a position to-Kmow, such). for instance, as the Hon. - " T. L. Kennedy, minister of agriculture, can see great possibilities in the trade agreements. To criticize them for the mere sake of criticism, without waiting for the agreements to work themselves out, is ex- hibiting a degree of political partisanship which is unfortunate under the present condition of affairs in Canada. Oshawa and Industries It has been predicted that, as a result of the agreements made at the Imperial Con- ference, there will be a strong movement on the part of Unilyd States industries to esablish branch factories in Canada. There have been reports of this kind before, but none which seemed to have behind them so sound a set of conclusions. In order to re- tain their place in the Canadian market, many lines of United States products will have to be made in this country, or give place to products from within the Empire. While there may be some degree of false hope in these predictions, it behooves Osh- awa to keep its weather eye open. for op- portunities. This city should be in the fore- front of any effort to attract United States branch factories, particularly those of a diversified character. Oshawa has indus- trial facilities second to none in the Do- minion, and should stand as good a chance as any other community to share in any movement to open new factories in this country. Primarily it is the function of the Osh- awa Chamber of Commerce to keep its eye open for such opportunities. Doubtless its officers are well aware of that fact, and will not let any opportunity slip by that seems reasonably sound. One cannot ex- pect that the Chamber of Commerce, or city council, can work miracles, but it would be a great help to the state of mind of the people of Oshawa if they could be assured that the Chamber and its officials are up and doing, and are endeavoring to do everything humanly possible to have Oshawa's claims placed before any con- cerns which might be: interested in locat- ing in Canada. Editorial Notes The results of the Imperial Economic Conference must have given those respon- sible for the policies of the Toronto Star a terrible headache, judging from the strenuous efforts being made to discount them: That is to be expected, however, from a newspaper which sends a special writer to Russia to sing the praises of the Soviet regime, and condemns Canada's premier for trying to protect Canadian farm pro- ducts against Russian dumping in British markets. Durham county has record crops, of splendid quality and yield. If the price would only take a real jump, this district would benefit tremendously. If Germany is to undergo a civil war owing to the activities of the Fascisti, may it be a bloodless one, like that of Mussolini in Italy. Other Editor's Comments RETURN OF HORSE TO REDUCE ROAD COSTS (Toronto Mail and Empire) it is ap ill wind that blows nobody good. Hence the County of Middlesex congratulates itself that road maintenance costs will be cut nearly 30 per cent this year because of the decrease in traffic on the county roads. Mr. Charles Talbot, county en- gineer, explains that many farmers are going back to the horse and buggy, particularly for short trips, and, therefore, there is not the same wear and tear on the roads. od "It isn't costing half as much to keep the Hamil. ton road in shape this year as two years ago, This is one of the busiest county roads, but there simply isn't the traffic this vear," he said. Conditions in Middlesex will, no doubt, be duplicated in many other counties.

The condition reacts as a strain upon parents and teachers alike, their ef- forts being tested to the liimt will force some attention rather than have others held back due to the physical handicaps of perhaps ome in the class. . / As these conditions grow. Peri- odic examinations bring to light the cases as they develop. They are being corrected and studied and beneficial knowledge is being gath- ered daily as to the case in itself and as to its contributory factors. Illness and undernourished condi- tions are in many cases contributory factors to the growing conditions of defect. The outcome of this Increasing knowledge is found in the existence of clinics where advice is sought and given and charitably extended in the interest of the needy poor.

There are so many things of interest in and around Denver that one could spend weeks and see something new every day. I am in one of the interesting places right now, and that is the world-famous ALBANY HOTEL. Frank Dutton, the managing di- rector, is one of America's best- known and most popular hotel operators. What I want to tell about is something different, and if you ever go to Denver, it is a sight worth seeing and that is the pool in the Albany Hotel Coffee Shop. I never saw anything like it In the center of the Coffea Shop is a fountain and pool. This pool is stocked daily with 'live moun- tain trout. Here the guest is pri- vileged tO take a net and catch a mountain trout, them turn it over to the chef for cooking. This is all done in he Coffee Shop where you can watch the entire operation from catching the. trout to eating it.

And for their contri- butions to civic coffers what do they get? Just about a police raid a week and all the trouble and ex- pense 'of bailing out their clients. If the law permts they would sooner pay the city a good price for a license and dispense with the necessity of going to Recorder's Court in business hours. They think the city should either force them to close up entirely or provide them with 'a license. Continuous raiding and fine-paying is ruining the bus- iness, they say. It is leared from a well-known bookmaker, who is arraigned 'in court almost daily. that the "trade" is amalgamating in an attempt to have city authorities amend the ex- 1 isting by-law and 'ask each estab- lishment to .pay.a heavy license. They would be willing to pay. as igh as $3,000 or $4,000 annually, he sald. "The city gets a large revenue from us and. they would naturally expect a high license payment," said this bookmaker. y FEEDER PURCHASE POLICY Renewal of the Feeder Purchase Policy : designed to encourage the winter feeding of cattle and lambs of suitable type and quality is an- nounced by the Hon. Robert Weir, federal Minister of Agriculture. Un- der the terms of this policy, broadly put, the federal Department will pay the reasonable travelling of a farmer or his agent to the stockyard point of purchase, the feeder sales, or nearest station to range point at which the feeder stock is purchased. To secure the benefits of the policy at least one car of stock (20 head of cattle or 40 lambs, or a combined car, figured on 2 lambs as the equi- valent of one beef animal) must be purchased. Stock purchased is sub- ject to approval as to type and suit- ability by the official representative of the Dominion Live Stock Branch serving the point of purchase. Spe- cial provision has been made to ex- tend the benefits of the policy ge- spectively to farmers of Eastern Canada. of the Prairie Provinces, and of British Columbia.
