Dr. Locke of Williamsburg The reports of marvellous cures effected by Dr. W. M. Locke of Williamsburg have aroused the interest of the whole contin- ent, and thousands of people flock to the little town down on the St. Lawrence, seeking relief from their ailments. In the Williamsburg Times one can read each week of the marvellous cures which have been effected, and the list of them is Im- ive. . me spite of the report, there are still those who are sceptical. They are not convinced that Dr. Locke has grasped at something "which is doing an incalculable amount of good. Yet there is proof that he can perform remarkable feats of heal- i 7 the case of little Ernie Brooks, of Oshawa. Given up as hopelessly incurable, he was taken to Williamsburg, and has returned from his first course of treat- ments remarkably improved. Those who knew of his condition before he went to Williamsburg, and who have seen him since his return are amazed by the change which has been wrought in his condition. It is no use trying to tell these people that Dr. Locke's cures are imaginary. This young lad has not been completely cured, ut the progress which he has made under Jr. Locke is such as to give rise to the aope that a further course of treatment vill bring about that much-desired result. Whatever his power may be, it is appar- nt that Dr. Locke has something which is of tremendous value to those who undergo ireatment at his hands, and it is little won- der that his fame has spread across the whole length and breadth of the North American continent. Why Not Deportation ? It is reported that Tim Buck, the Tor- onto Communist leader now serving a term. 'n Portsmouth Penitentiary and some of \is associates are responsible for the riots in that institution this week. We can read- ily believe this to be true. It would not take much of Buck's fiery type of oratory to incite men in prison to deeds of violence, and, according to reports that -is exactly what happened. If there are Communists in Portsmouth Penitentiary who are responsible for the riots, there will be good grounds for rais- ing the question of why such men should net be deported to their own countries, In every case in which deportation is possible instead of being sent to prison to create trouble there. If they are liable to deport- ation, what is to be gained by keeping them in a Canadian prison, at the expense of the Canadian people, for a year or two, or perhaps longer, before sending them back to their native country? That is a plain question, and it should have a plain answer. We would think it would be far better to deport such men immediately, instead of letting them 'be guests of Canada in a penal institution where, by their association with men who are very amenable to talk of revolt, they can create such situations as that which has arisen at the Portsmouth institution. Needless Duplication on The Railways The complele report of the Duff Rail- way Commission, recently given to the public, has served to confirm the general opinion held by most people who give ' thought to public questions, that there has been wanton extravagance on the Cana- dian National lines and reckless competi- tion between the C.N.R. and the C.P.R. The Commission has certainly justified its appointment if on no other grounds than that it has brought this impartial report before the country in words that must call forth governmental action to stop the squandering of millions in senseless waste and useless competition, A few years ago when the Canadian Pacific Railway constructed its new line through the lakeshore towns from To- ronto to Montreal, paralleling the old Grand Trunk double track line, residents of thege towns, including Oshawa, hailed the project as a great asset and as a val- uable addition to the pasgenger and freight service to these communities, which it then was. Times have changed, however, and the Grand Trunk has now become the property of the people, who are yearly putting up millions to meet its deficit. Competition between these two lines doesn't look so attractive now. Several. trains each way daily on both lines carry a volume of freight and passenger traffic 'that could easily be handled by one line without taxing its facilities in any way. In fact, passenger coaches are frequently al- most empty. It seems to be nothing less than crim- inal waste of the funds of the taxpayers of the country and of shareholders of the C.P.R. to continue train services on both these lines through lakeshore towns when one railway could give ample service. No doubt there are numerous other cases where similar duplication of service leads to waste of untold thousands of dol- lars each year. Canada needs railways; but not to the extent that public and pri- vate lines should compete regardless of the cost to the people. The government of the day will be well advised to take immediate and effective steps to put into practice the suggestions of the Duff Commission. Editorial Notes - Britain is not wastimg much time in passing the various measures necessary to ratify the Imperial Economic Conference pacts. W. H. Moore's speech in the House of Commons on the Imperial Conference agreements indicates that he is not nearly so hide-bound a partisan politician as some of the other members of the house, Fifty-five towns and cities in Ontario have established Public Welfare Boards. Apparently the recommendations of the provincial government's advisory commit- tee have proven popular with municipal bodies. Truly the ways of juries are sometimes wondrous strange! The A and P. Company increased its advertising by $13,000 in one week, and as a result increased its sales hy $800,000. Who can now dispute that advertising pays?

ALTO- WHERE TO LOOK FOR GRURBS A special cjreular just issued by the Dominion Entomological Branch in connection with whira grub control in for 1932 includes the statement: "In planning for 1933-it should be borne in mind that the great- est number of grubs are to be expected in fields which were in timothy sod or pasture on light loam, muck or gravel in the spring of 1832. Smaller num- bers of grubs hut of serious con- sequence can he expected to he present in land which was in small grains of weedy hoed crop on lighter land in June and July of 1932.

A GLIMPSE OF JAPANESE DESTRUCTION IN SHANGHAI, wrought in that city's Chapei district, is shown above. Inset is Tsuyoshi Inukai, Japan's 77-year-old premier, who was assassinated in May by militarist fanatics, after which army leaders took control of the government in Tokio and ace complished their conquest of Manchuria. (This is the first of two timely stories on developments in the Far Eastern situation since the warfare at Shanghai, a situation which is due to come to a cli- max on Nov. 14 when Japan "goes on trial" before the League of Nations assembly for alleged violation of treaties in seizing Chinese territory in Manchuria.) Just a little less than a year ago the long-nosed guns of Jap- an's navy were hurling shells on Shanghai, Japanese machine gun crews were sweeping through the streets of the terror-stricken Chinese section and Japanese air- men were dropping bombs on the smoking ruins to complete the picture of death and destruction. What has happened since that time when Japan defied the world to inflict a terrible object lesson on feeble China for daring to boycott Japanese-made goods? In the months that have elapsed, this small but militantly aggressive island empire has com- pletely overrun China's rich province of Manchuria and set up there, under the protection of Japanese bayonets, the, dummy "republic" of Manchukuo "Law and Order" Continuing its policy pansion by conquest, taken; by force of arms, richest region--an area as as France and Germany bined, which contains more China's big com- than | half of the railroads in China and | which is immensely | agricultural | tional treaties is charged | before hoth re- rich i and mineral gonrces For this theft. of a neighboring nation's choicest area---in which violation of three great interna- Japan is scheduled to he placed on trial the world on "Nov 14 when the League of Nations meets at Geneva to take up { China's charges. ECONOMY HAS BEEN PREACH- | But to make this story clear it is necessary to go back to Sep- tember, 1931, when someone there is a lot of mystery about it damaged a Japanese-owned railroad just morth of the ege city of Mukden. The Japan- | | | | | ax- | Nippon has | refused to do. In May, the militarists of Jap- an gained added strength when there developed a fresh outburst of political assassinations and bomb throwing by young army and navy officers. Prime Minis- ter Inukai was killed, the govern- ment fell and was replaced hy a new government which was mere- |1y a tool of the army. Lieut.-Gen. Sada Arakia, Jap- an's minister of war, became the power behind the new govern- ment, He is still in control. In August, Count Uchida, the Japanese minister of foreign af- fairs, announced plans to recos- nize a new republic in Manchuria to be known as Manchukuo, Dr. Lo Wen-kan, the Chinese foreign minister, was quick to reply that "Japan has now cast off her mask and openly revealed her scheme of aggression in China." In September Japan formally "recognized" this puppet state of her own creation, A government, which guaranteed all existing Japanese rights in Manchuria, was set up under the regency of the former hoy emperor of China, Henry Pu-yi, Japan's 1932 History Japan organized this govern- ment wrote its constitution, se- | lected its personnel staffed its of- | setup supplied whole military to- fices with advisers, money and guarded the with a strong force.

Winston Churchill, with the inevitable smile and cigar, is scen here being cavried to an ambulance as he left a Londen nursing heme for his residence. ! rye a id He will later recuperate in the coun. three great international treaties which bind the leading nations of the world, each of which Japan signed, These treaties are: 1. The Nine-Power Pacific Treaty, signed at the Washington arms conference of 1922, which guarantees the integrity of China. 2, The Kellogg-Briand Treaty to outlaw war by pledging na- tions to abolish war as a nation- al policy. 2. The covenant of the League of Nations an instrument for set- tling disputes hetween member nations without application to force and which calls for mutual consent in the readjustment of boundaries. Japan's Defense 1. With regard to the Nine- Power Pacific Treaty, the Japan- ese reply that conditions in China had become so impossible that Japan, her neighbor, was com- pelled to take action te protect Japanese interests, (The United States' position is that when Japan signed this treaty she was well aware of the unfortunate conditions in China and the fact that conditions may have grown worse cannot be used as an ex- cuse for violation.) . 2. With regard to the Kellogg- Briand pact, the Japanese reply that they have committed no vio- lations: that their actions in Manchuria were in self-defense, and in accord with reservations made by leading countries. (It is now to be determined whether Japan acted in self-defense.) 3. With regard to the covenant of the League of Nations, the Japanese reply that there was no seizure; that the people of Man- churia rebelled ageinst China and set up an independent gov- ernment for themselves. (Wheth- er Japan is using. this "indepen- dent republic" as a pretext for seizing Chinese territory is a question for decision.) ') * Possible Outcome 1. The League can white- wash Japan and camouflage her Manchurian protectorate by side- tracking the Lytton report. 2. The League can call on member nations to apply moral pressure to Japan to make her relinquish. Manchuria, 3. The League can call for a diplomatic, ,economic and finan- cial boycott against Japan until she decides to live up to agree- ments. 4. Japan can tell the League to go to hang, resign from member- ship and continue to do as she pleases in China.

CENTRAL .CANADA IPAN AND SAVINGS COMPANY KING AND VICTORIA STS, TORONTO 23 SIMCOE ST. N., OSHAWA ESTABLISHED 1884 5) re (AN WHAT gINIRS WELSH COAL PRICES To the Editor of the Oshawa Daily Times. Dear Sir:--It would be oppor- tune at this time to acquaint! your readers with the profiteer- ing that is taking place in the sale of Welsh coal in this city and what applies here applies in a more or less degree elsewhere. 1 understand that Welsh coal is laid down on the dock or F. 0.B. Montreal at $6 per ton, yet sold to the consumers in Oshawa at $15.50. One is tempted to inquire who gets the other $9,50. My investigations lead me to believe that there are only three importers of Welsh coal who dis- pose of their cargoes to another small set of manipulators at thz dock in Montreal. These manipulators presumab- ly through agreements sell to a combination of two local dealers F.0.B. Oshawa for $9.50 a won and if they are distributing to the consumers there appears to be $6 a ton profit. The cost to the Montreal combine is $6 a ton. It costs for rail transpor- tation $1.95 from Montreal to Oshawa, If it was shippea ny boat in quantities of about 22,- 000 tons it would cost 50 cents a ton, providing it was unloaded in 28 hours or 55 cents up to 48 hours, This amounts, on the basis of rail transportation, to a profit of $1.55 per ton for the Montreal manipulators. The bal- ance of the coal dealers purchas- ing Welsh coal from the Oshawa combine have to pay $13 a ton loaded on the truck, add on to that 50 cents cartage to their yards together with 5 cents for weighing in . quantities of 3,000 1bs., one can readily see that the dealer outside the combine enly receives about $2 a ton for all his work oring, distributing, etc, but what about these twa dealers that buy for $9.50. These statements are based on information gathered by me from an authoritative source, but it they can be successfully chal. lenged, then the people of Osh- awa would doubtless appreciate the coal dealers giving their side of the case. If the balance of the coal deal- ers decide they will buy direct from the Montreal dealers they discover that they can only save $1 a ton for their efforts, in oth- er words, it will cost them $12 a ton instead of $13. So appar- ent has this hecome that tha Senate is now discussing it. Pro- tests should be lodged from every municipality to end this profit eering. The people of Canada need helping not plundering in these trying times. Yours truly, F. W.
