PENSION TRIBUNAL HELD IN OSHAWA (Continued from page 1) for a decision, In the case of E. F. Moss, the last to be heard, judgment was re- served by Major Thompson after a most considerable amount of evid- dence had been given. The four Oshawa cases were all handled in their preliminary stages and prepared for the tribunal by the adjustment officers of the Osh- awa Branch of the Canadian Legion, which made the initial claims to the Board of Pension Commissioners, and also assisted the pencion advo- cate in assembling the necessary evidence. Much dissatisfaction was express- ed because of the fact that only five cases were heard at the present session, there being many other lo- cal claims which have been refer- red to the tribunal and are wait- ing hearing. Arrangements were made this forenoon by James Holt, the present adjustment officer of the Oshawa Legoin, whereby a spe: cial session devoted to Oshawa cases will be held in Toronto with- in the next two or three weeks, A large number of local veterans at- tended this morning's session, and displaved keen interest in the pro- ceedings.

Maude Phillips, executive secretary of the Ani- mal Rescue League of Boston, who has spent the summer tour- ing the Grenfell posts. Boys at theses various stations were taught to make kennels for the dogs and now local store-keep- ers find that they have no trou- ble in disposing of old packing boxes which make excellent ma- terial for the purpose. Humane clubs have been form- ed among the children at all the Grenfell Mission stations, Miss Phillips said, and the name 'Sir Wilfred's Crusaders" has been adopted. Travelling along the coast in the Grenfell steamer, Miss Phil- lips sald, was full of adventure, as climbing the dizzy heights of fishing stages in the middle of the night, the thrill of seeing the welcome given Sir Wilfred Grenfell by the populace of the fishing villages, and the sight of the gradual transforma- tion that is taking place in the landscape with the introduction of gardening. The latter is the result of 'missionary effort on the part of Prof. Sears, of Am- herst College, who hms taught the fishermen how to grow vege- | tables. The cabbages are wonder- ful, she remarked Community '"'cookeries' have been organized in the various | centres, and the movement for | better dietetics in which growing | of vegetables is an important part, has been stimulated fur- ther by teaching the women how to can salmon, instead of it be- ing used during the winter only in salted condition Slang terms have their place in the Labrador vocabulary Col- lege men who do volunteer work there during the summer, digging ditches, and what-not, are de- gignated by the fisherfolk as "wops".

Leaders of the new organi- zation are gratified at the inter- est shown in their efforts by peo- ple in all parts of Canada since the federation was formed early in August. Immediate organization plans involve activity both in the far west and the far east. New Brunswick and British Columbia are regarded as flelds where the federation can make headway. J. 8S. Woodsworth, veteran Labor member of parliament from Win- nipeg and president of the fed- eration, ig at present on a speak- ing tour in British Columbia. Arrangements are being made for several members of the U.F. Com- mons to visit New Brunswick either before or after the coming session of parliament, In Ontario organization work C. R. Mosh- er. of Ottawa, president of the All-Canadian Congress of Labor, and William Irvine, U.F.A. mem- ber of parliament for Wetaski- win, is assisting. Before a great deal can be ac- complished the member organi- zations of the federation have to ratify the constitution adopted at the organization meeting at Calgary, Norman F. Priestly. secretary of the Federation and vice-president of the United Farmers 'of Alberta, states. After that, however, every opportuni- ty is being taken to spread the ideas of the federation. Small independent political groups, Socialistic, Labor, and Farmer organizations of every kind from the Atlantic to the Pacific are lining up with the federation, according to Mr Priestly. Activities of Farmer and Labor groups in Saskatche: wan were primarily responsible for its formation but Mr. Priest- ly was surprised at the number and variety of organizations in other parts of the country taking an interest, The object of the Federation is to bring together all persons interested in making a change in the economic system. Its goal is Socialism and the substitution of a system of co-operative produc- | the number of tion for use in place of the pres- ent caplalistic system of produc- tion for private profit. The Farmer and Labor organi. zations of Saskatchewan and Al- berta have a well-defined pro- gramme for accomplishing this end but support of the Federa- tion does not necessarily involve acceptance of them. Realizing economic changes can only be brought about through action in the federal parliament the aim is to get all groups of advanced so- cial thinkers in Canada working together. Minor differences are to be overlooked providing there is a general common objective. The Federation has been in correspondence with the League for Social Reconstruction and al- though the aim of the latter is educational rather than militant it is expected to affiliate with the federation. FALL HUNTERS GIVEN ADVICE Those interested in reducing lost . hunters re- ported each autumn from the Canadian forests are anxious to make known that an ordinary watch will serve ag a reliable compass. The idea is sponsored by the navigation department of the Canadian National Steam- ships. Hold the watch horizontally, point the hour hand in the direc- tion of the sun and remember that the half way point along the are which the hour hand has yet to traverse before it points to the number 12 {s south, if the time of day be six o'clock p.m. or later.. If the hour be earlier than six o'clock the half-way point along the arc which the hour hand hag already traversed since it pointed to 12 {sg 'the point marking the south, In all cases the watch, held horizontally, is moved around so that the hour hand points in the genera] dir- ection 'of the sun. Obviously, this improvised compass is of little use at high noon and of no use when the sun cannot he located Standard time should be the ba- sis of reckoning. They've broken a "window next door.

ORMISTON Daily Times- 4 RAR RRARRY NEW PAVEMENT NOT FAVORED BY COUNTY COUNCIL No Action Taken on Ex- tension North to Beaverton At a special session on Tues- day afternoon the County Coun- cil declined to take any action on a suggestion made by Reeve John Ross, of Thorah, that Council re- commend to the honorable the minister of highways that the new pavement now being con- structed north of Sunderland be extended to the village of Bea- verton this year. The suggestion by the reeve of Thorah, dean of the Council, was an echo of the deputation which waited on the minister at his summer home recently and asked that the extension to Bea- vert'on, a distance of five miles, be undertaken this year. The minister turned down the request on the ground that it was not proposed by the Department to undertake any further paving this year, and also that the County Council had not yet been consulted. In this deputation were members of the Council who at the January and June ses- sions this year strongly opposed the construction of any new pavement in the county this year, and voted for a resolution ts he sent to the government along that line Would Provide Work In support of his suggestion that the county recommend this new pavement to the govern- ment, the reeva of Thorah point- ed out that it would provide work for many needy men in the northern part of the county, in- cluding Thorah, who up until now had been provided for by treasury funds. Mr. Roes pointed out that if the work was recom- mended now as an extension it might be undertaken by the De- partment, but if left over until next year, as suggestion in a res- olution before Council, it would be treated as a new pavement, He further pointed out that the county would not have to pay anything on the work until the vear 1934, by which time, it was hoped, conditions would have improved Reeve Jackson said he was dis- posed to support Mr. Ross in his request, as he felt that it was good business and in keeping with the stand he had taken at previous sessiong when the pave- ment north from Sunderland, now being built without the county's consent, wag under con- sideration. Mr. Jackson marvel- led that Mr. Ross was lacking in support from men from the north who had formed part bf the dep- utation which without being au- thorized by Council had waited upon the minister at his summer home. The reeve of Whitby ex- pressed a desire to hear some de- | tails of the visit to the minister, |and invited members of the depu- f tation to make themselves heard. He noted from press reports that some who were on the deputa- tion were opposed to any fur: ther paving this year at previous segsions of this council but ap- parently they had experienced a change of heart In a general discussion of Mr. Ross' proposal some members of council were in favor of it chief- ly on the ground that it would provide work for unemployed men There were others, how- ever, who fired with a zeal for economy, argued that the county should adopt a 'pay-as-you-go' policy, and not add any further debenture debt to the county to be taken care of later by some who today were in danger of los- ing all that they had. It was "suggested council should leave it minister to decide if the new pavement should be proceeded with, for, it was pointed out, the government would probably ig- nore any recommendation the council might make, COUNTY COUNGIL 10 FIGHT APPEAL ON EQUALIZATION Assistant Solicitor And Special Committee Acts For County the to the that | Ontarle County Council at a spe- | cial meeting called by Warden Ro- | bert Somerville and held at the | Court House in Whitby on Tuesday afternoon decided to defend before {2 Board of Arbitrators the assess- | ment equalization bylaw passed at I the June session this year, and against which an appeal has been lodzed by the Township of Reach. | The date for the first sitting of the Arbitrators has not yet been set, nor ig it definitely known who | will, sit on the Board. The equali- { zation bylaw was discussed at length at the January session this vear, and again in June, because of the attitude of Reach township re- resentatives who claimed that their swnship assessment was altogether I © 0 high. In June the Council, af- | ter throwing out a 'port brought in | by a special committee, decided on only one change in the assessment schedule which has been in force for five years, the sum of $12,000 being taken from Reach and placed on the Township of Pickering. This change, however, was not satisfac- tory to Reach and notice of an ap- peal was promptly given, The proceedings before the Board of Arbitrators will probably be long drawn out and costly to either the county or township or both. In view of the economic depression and high county taxes, the launch- ing of the appeal is considered most unfortunate at this time. Special Solicitor The Council appointed Gordon D. Conant, of Oshawa, to act for the county in the hearing of the appeal in conjunction with County Clerk and Solicitor R. Donald Ruddy. On motion, the warden named a spe- cial committee of Reeve F, M, Chapman, Pickering; Reeve Allan Lavis, East Whitby; Reeve John Ross, Thorah; Reeve John Low, Uxbridge Town, and Reeve John Bruce, ot Mara; to consult with the solictors and with power to act. It is understood that on Tuesday another effort was made to arrive at a settlement with Reach and thus avold the cost of an appeal, but without success. May Attack Bylaw At the hearing of the appeal the validity of the equalization bylaw will probably be attacked, while it is expected that the assessment of every municipality will have to Le reviewed. The Township of Reach may be called upon to produce con- siderable evidence in support of ils claim that its assessment is now and has been for some years too high, The cost of the special session of Council Tuesday will be over $300, I'm a pretty "earty eater, you know; but as I always says, IT ain't gorgeous, Women's Meetings ALBERT STREET WOMEN'S ASSOCIATION ENTERTAINED The Women's Association of Simcoe Street United Church yes- terday afternoon entertained the Women's Association of Albert Street United Church. The members of the visiting Society were welcomed by Mrs. Albert Wilson, President of the Simcbe Street Association, and at the close of the meeting refresh- ments were served with Mrs. MeGillvray's group in charge. The program was provided by the Albert Street ladies under the leadership of Mrs. R. Taylor, President, Mrs. J. H. Canning gave a Scripture reading, Mrs. M, Morison, a solo, entitled "An Old.

The business of the Simcoe Street Society included the an- nouncement of a shower for the kitchen at the October meeting. The meeting was closed with the benediction and a vote of thanks was extended to the Sim- coe Street ladies by the Albert Street Associatfon for their kind hospitality. »!
