i PAGE EIGHT THE OSHAWA DAILY TIMES, TUESDAY, JULY 9, 1940 - BRITAIN CERTAIN HITLER SHALL NOT "WIN PRESENT WAR a (Continued from Page 1) . #8lp of Service and Imperial Unity." Greetings From President " President Stewart expressed the | fenor and pleasure it gave him to Preside at such a notable gathering and introduced Alex Ross, District Governor of Rotary District No. 168, who read a message from the new president of Rotary Interna- onal. "Greetings and best wishes io all attending the District As- sembly at Oshawa." This was res- ponded to an enthusiastic ovation. "President Maurice Hart, on behalf of the Oshawa club presented Mrs. 'Ross with a basket of lovely roses stating that "these are for the lead- ing lady of District No. 168 in token our esteem." Oldfield, well-known bari- singer of Toronto, delighted assembly with a group of fav- 'orite songs for which he received the sustained applause of the hosts | and guests and the profuse thanks | of the chairman. i .. Hitler Shall Not Win «Fred Saunders, the guest speaker, +eld the undivided attention of the | 200 seated at the dinner tables, in 'a most scholarly and patriotic ad- | "dress. He pointed out that the British people are determined that "Hitler shall not succeed. But let | no one be deceived, it is the British | peoples upon whom the world pins its hopes for the salvation of] 'Christian civilization. As we wit- ness the indomitable courage and anconquerable spirit of our people, If 'We recognize that they are worthy | % descendants of those splendid fore- .bearérs who put to flight the Span- ish aggressor and stopped the ty- : rent Napoleon, and procured for us any > years of freedom from ag- | wa a. after years of peaceful | . pursuits our people have been com- ed to, for their own preserva- | and for the preservation of the "sacred liberties of free peoples ev- "erywhere, to again take up the d against an enemy the like | "of which the world has never known | Hor fiendish cruelty and barbaric | of Christian principles, Mr "Saunders stated. If the people of 'any country ever had the slightest | 'doubt as to the intentions of this "inhuman monster and his treach- | "erous. ally, surely after the recent | "evidence of his insatiable lust for | er, pursued at any cost to hu. | . life, they have at least seen | oo for what he is and must now "Yealize that nothing but the un- "éonquerable spirit of the British ig now stands between this guilty tyrant and his dream «of world domination. If he succeeds we shall be forced into a mode of life compared to which slavery | would be a paradise. "The National Spirit" Continuing his address on "Eng- | land, and the National Spirit," Mr. Saunders said we must distinguish between nationalism and its true! form and the perversion of the na- 'tional spirit evident in some coun- | tries--a nationalism that regards | every other nation and race as in- | ferior. The true national spirit is the highest form of patriotism. | "And defining the word, the speaker | Quoted the words of C. R. Skinner: "Patriotism is more than a senti- | ment; it is a conviction based upon | a& comprehension of the duties of a | citizen, and a determination loy- dlly to perform suck duties. Pat- | fotism is a love of country, born | Of familiarity with its history, rev- | erence for its institutions, and faith | in its possibilities, and is evidenced | by obedience to its laws and res- pect for its flag." Such a patriot- | {sm gave us a loyal South Africa | | and a General Smuts, and that | means a lot when all things are | { Sansidered, Mr. Saunders pointed | "Our national outlook 'must not | i Rreciude the right of freedom to { er constructive criticism. In| ing this right as members of | p-democratic system, let us be y of our high privilege, and | | with honesty of purpose let us care- | fully weigh our utterances and en- that our views are not tinted with any shade of political bias, Mr. ers urged. Equally, those who charged with the responsibil- f of conducting the war should not be hypersensitive to fair and phan criticism honestly made : a single purpose--a victorious times of grave danger, such as 4 present, it was never more true "that whoso loveth his life shall lose it," Mr, Saunders suggested must even be prepared for some ary suppression of liberty, of and action, if a continuance 'af this liberty leads to its being finally ] lost. The spirit which #agress to suppression for the com- mon good will certainly claim and Procure these rights again when the danger is passed. 5 Value of Traditions ~The desire to perpetuate in our. ree those characteristics which have made our nation great, and on our great traditions to the 'younger generation is most aptly expressed in the words of a British |g Bishop who said, "traditions which xe not valued, which are not guarded, which are not expounded isfresh to every generation as in its tn it steps onto the arena of the ituries, that tradition will grow jk and pass," Mr. Saunders stat- + Traditions are the stanchions those great edifices of character sacrificial service which have nt) ted to our generation many the liberties we enjoy, but which sometimes fail to appreciate. , the speaker pointed out, na- nalism, in some of its unbridled has become one of the curs- age, and instead of be- | ans must prepare and organize for | 'Andrews, | car allegedly stalled, and | ceeding north at the | a birthday | to his coat lapel and as rotarian Jof our a virtue is a sinister influence in its manifestation of arrogance and aggression. Rotary's Opportunity Rotary which has been shut out temporarily from some countries because of the insane desire to de- stroy or suppress those elements which make for better understand- ing and which weakens the desire for war, will again have its oppor= tunity to play an important part in the process of convalescence and rehabilitation, Mr. Saunders said. And it is for this work that Rotari- the coming peace. In closing his address Mr. Saund- ers urged that we guard our heri- tage by sharing our national privi= lege with only those whom we have solid grounds for believing will ap- preciate these inestimable privileges. We must see that in future people of other races are not permitted to settle in our country and enjoy the benefits of our freedom and by subversive methods through the medium of their political organiza- tions, undermine our constitution and render our social structure un- safe. If these people have not the good sense to participate in our privileges, enjoy and share in our heritage, they should be made to return to their own country and enjoy those privileges which they profess to admire. The closing sentence of thought-provoking address was: his | "in| | our conception of nationality let us realize the potential weight of our | influence in our own private and | community spheres, and if we are possessed of the determination to | play our part, this world will yet | be won for sanity. so that men and women may again traverse its | broad acres, breathe its unpolluted air, enjoy the wonders of a great | creation, and enter - into the full | enjoyment of human fellowship and | friendship, which will make this | place of our earthly sojourn al heaven on earth." Owing to the heavy shower dur- | ing the progress of the dinner, the | visit to Parkwood Gardens had to | be abandoned. OSHAWA AND VICINITY LITTLE BROWN CHURCH Rev. Mr. Nicholson, of Toronto, | was the guest preacher at The Little Brown Church last Sunday eve- | ning and based his sermon on the | words of Leviticus, 171-9. A testi- | mony service was held at the start. | Both the Junior and Senior choirs sang. There was a good attend- | ance at Sunday School in the after- noon. ST. DAVID'S PICNIC A large number of members of | the St. David's Welsh Society gath- | ered at Lakeview Park on Saturday | last for their annual picnic, when an enjoyable time was spent in games and contests. Following were the winners: "Billy Locke, Muriel | Nancy Thomas, Sally | Lewis, Sally Hughes, Martha Hugh- es, Mrs. Car-michael, Mrs. Chappell, | Mrs. Munkley, Mrs. Williams, Mrs. Jenkins, Mr. Farmer and Mr. Bull.

Watt, a former St. | Mary's resident, now advertising manager of General Motors of Can- ada, and a member of the Oshawa Rotary Club, was introduced at the luncheon meeting of the Club yes- | terday as having recently celebrated | anniversary.

In view of the fact that there were no previous convic- tions and that the accused was not operating "on g large scale", Mag- istfate F. S.

Magistrate Ebbs decreed that the case against Norman Ward and George McEvoy must be dealt with on July 30, when it will come up for the third time. J- P. Mangan, counsel for Ward, and A. W, 8.

The seiting was enhanced by the addition of ferns and plants. A United Empire Thére perhaps was never a feel- ing of unity so strong among the peoples of the British Empire than at the present time, when men, money and materials are being mo- bilized to defend democracy, Col. Frank Chappell said in opening his address. And we feel like a prize fighter coming up for another bat- tle, grim, resolute end full of cour- age. Those countries which have al- ready succumbed to the heartless and ruthless foe now face the ter- ror of the Gestapo. The Rotary clubs in those countries are gone and the only hope left for those conquered. people is the saving power of the one free nation left-- Great Britain. Those who tried carrying on a veiled neutrality discovered that their neutrality was about as ef- fective as a chiffon shewl in a thunder storm, Col, Chappell point- | ed out. What could Britain do under | the circumstances? Those countries | where | and the world know now Britain stands--and where she has stood before--alone. We must now think in terms of England, not in terms of Canela, Scotland, Ire'and, or other parts of the Empire, Col. Chappell advised. While England is threatened from the south that threat is no more fearful than the one from the west. for the neutrality of Ireland will be of little eail, as it was in 'those | other countries.

Rumor is a great | force and the enemy used it to great | advantage. In fact it may be the secret Weapon that Hitler boasted of. We can deal with facts but not with rumor and therefor should stamp it out. The enemy has built up a huge war machine based on self-denial and the acceptance of the imposi- tion of a force which caine through the sacrifice of comfort and the giving up of 'private affairs, which has been described as "guns are bet- ter than butter," the speaker point- | ed out. With our higher ideals there is the possibility that we may have to meize sacrifices, give up some of our comforts, some of our money and even our freedom if we are to successfully combat the enemy.

Bird, a past pre- sident of the Oshawa Club and a past district governor led the dis- cussion on "Keeping the Club Alive." Items up for discussion in- cluded community service, vocaiion= al service, international service, Ro- tary extension, the 1941 district oon- vention and the international con- ference at Denver. The presidents and secretaries broke up into separate groups dur- ing the morning and discussed mat- ters pertaining to their owa psa. ticular offices. The assembly ad- journed at 12 noon.

You can do this in an enjoyrble and profitable manner on Monday evening, July 15, by buy- ing at least two 25c war savings Stamps to see a special show 'at your moving picture theatre. You keep the stamps, the Government gets the face value of the stamps for war purposes, you enjoy a show and get your money back from Ottawa plus interest while the theatre manager pays the bills, the Divine Mind which is our hope, Dr. Macleod pointed out. In conclusion Dr, Macleod urged the community welfare movement in teaching the foreign born, to culti- vate their acquaintance and try to help them fit themselves into our Canadian citizenship, which will re- sult in a strong force against those things which assail us from within. Within them there are great possi- bilities for true citizenship and for great legxders. District Governor Alex Ross, of Toronto, who presided, asked that the Rotarians bring their influence to bear on these new Canadians and give them a chance to take their places in community and national life. It is a terrific problem in United States as well as in Canada and it is up to us as good citizens to tackle the problem. It cannot be done by politicians but only by good, sound citizens in the com- munity in which they reside. Economic Side Stressed Rotaricsa George Hart pointed to the economic side of the problem and the lower standards of living which foreign born usually bring to Canada. By appealing to their pride of ownership and social status per- haps a higher plene of living might result. He doubted if any Rotarian knows how the churches and other organizations are conducted and for that reason besides teaching them probably we have & lot to learn from them as well. Immediate past district governor, 0. D. Herity, of Belleville, pointed out that many English children will be coming to Canada shortly, and that as many of them will bring a new accent and a speech that is dif- ferent to what we are accustomed, that personal references and criti. responsibilities by | mall that religion and | of dic- | of the Old Land !s | rotary clubs to get behind the cism be refrained from. During the afternoon discussion dealing 'with purely rotary matters were dealt with, John Gibson, past international director of the To- ronto Club gave a talk on classifi- cation, while members of the Lea- side Club discussed "How a New Club Gets Along" and N. C. Mill- man, of the Oshawa Club discussed work of the Crippled Childrens' Committees. At 6.30 the assembly adjourned to the Genosha Hotel for dinner, where tne program was under the direction of F., M. Stewart, presi- dent of the Toronto Club. CUT ABLE-BODIED CIVIL GUARDS 10 BE UNDER CONTROL OF POLICE FORGE -- (Continued from Page 1) be charged with the responsibility for the entire civil guard project. Between 50 and 75 Provinclal Po- lice officers will be detached from regular duty. An officer will be assigned to each civil guard unit and will direct their training. Each officer will be responsibie to Queen's Park for his particular unit. All members of the civil guards will be sworn in -as Provincial officers. They will receive no pay. A survey of the Provincial force has been ordered by Mr. Conant Within the next few days the twelve district inspectors will be called into conference at Queen's Park. Picked men will be assigned to the civil guards, and their places on the force will be taken by re- serves, mostly veterans, all above the age limit for service. Civil guard members will wear the O.P.P. armband but the ques- tion of uniforms will be left to the discretion of the various munici- palities. Not Sure of Militla's Place Just how far the non-permanent militia units located at various | points in Ontario will implement the new plan is not known at Queen's Park. Some of the corre- spondence which has passed be- tween Mr. Conant and the Ottawa Ministry was read at 'yesterday's meeting of civil guard and munici- pal hcads. In a letter dated July 5 Mr. Conant w.ote Hon. C. G. Power, Minister of National De- fence, in answer {c a previous com- munication from Mr. Power. Mr. Power's letter, and the answer from Mr. Conant follow: Ottawa, July 4, 1940. "Dear Mr. Conant: "Your telegram of July 2, address: ed to my colleaguz, Mr. Ralston, and your further telegram of July 4 have been received.

"They Mr, Nixon declared. "Each munici- pality is to determine whether a | person is employable. In Toronto, | the report is that 04% per cent. | those on relief are employable. I rather doubt that figure, but I be- lieve many can work. And we're going to shake them up."

"Our reports indicate there are lots of jobs on the farm and partis | cularly in war industries," Mr, Nix- on declared. "There will be refresh ! er courses for the men on relief to aid them to qualify as mechanics. | Employers will be urged to show consideration for the man who has been on relief and who may not be | able to work at 100 per cent. effi- ciency immediately." Mr. Nixon expressed disappoint- ment with these who refused, to | work in Toronto, but he insisted they will be struck from relief rolls. These, he said, are physically fit and employable. "They felt they were better off on relief than working at about 30 cents an hzur," said Mr. Nixon. The plan is being supervised by Mr. Nixon, and operations are to be carried out by Hon. Eric Cross, Min- ister of Welfare, and Hon. Norman Hipel, Minister of Labor. Rotary Convention Delegate Roster (Continued from Page 1) J. Carley, Pres. Whitby--D. A. Wilson, Pres, J. R.

"Dear Mr. Power: | "This will acknowledge your lei- | ter of the 4th instant enclosing a | list of Ontario regiments affected by the plan outlined therein. "There can be no doubt as to the accuracy of your statement thal your duties are pf a military nature while mindqgmprimarily connected with the functions of the police. Ordinarily and in peace times there is no difficulty in distinguishing between the functions of the militia and the police, or between the du- ties of those responsible for their respective activities. What con- cerns me, however, is the respective functions of the militia and 'the police, in war or an emergency, hav- ing in mind conditions reported to have existed in the countries in- vaded by Germany. "With the greatest respect, and while I am very intgrested and gratified to know that the regi- ments you mention are being re- cruited up to full strength, that fact alone does not anwser my problem. There are still the following most important questions: "will these militia units be avail- able to deal with internal disturb- ances, 'Fifth Column' activities, sabotage, and other emergencies? "How will these units be avail- able, ie, under the terms of the present Militia Act and the King's Regulations and Orders or under some other arrangement? "How soon will the protection afforded by the militia be effect- afforded by the militia be effective? "Will these militia units be equip- ped wtih firearms and live ammuni- tion? "These questions, which I have brought up in previous correspond- ence, are of the utmost importance in determining whether present po- lice organizations in this Province are sufficient to meet whatever emergency may arise or the extent to which they should be enlarged ts m~~t such emergencies. In short, it comes down to the question as to what effective forces are to be im- mediately available to deal with emergencies and to maintain law and order generally. I hope it will be pessible for you to further de- tail the functions and availability of the militia as suggested by the questions I have above formulated so that this Government can deter- | | | | | | mine what police forces may be nec- essary to safeguard the lives and property of the people of this Prov- ince, "Yours very respectfully, "G.

REGISTRATION 13 PLANNED IN AUG, TRAINING IN SEPT, Five-Day Period for Regis- tration Likely in Last 2 Weeks of August Ottawa, July 9.--Voluntary regi- stration of every man and woman in Canada will be conducted over a four or five day period during the last two weeks in August. Every citizen, whether on holidays or not. will have to arrange to be on hand to register. Hon. James Gardiner. new Min- ister of National War Services, has already thrown himself into the task of organizing his new depart- ment and arranging for the regis- tration, which will be his first big task. ! Major-General L. R. Lafleche, who was Deputy Minister of De- fense until the outbreak of war, is | returning to Canada from England to be Deputy Minister of the new department. | With him as joint Deputy Minis- | ter will be Mr. Justice Thomas | Clayton Davis of the Supreme Court | of the dret for compulsory mlii- Ottawa today. Judge Davis has been | granted leave of absence from the | Bench until the end of the war. Last night wires were sent to the Chief Justices of every Province to | name a judge to headle the details { of the draft for complusory mili tary training in each Province. It is expected . that compulsory training will start in September, when space in military camps wili | be available, The fzeilities of both the Domin- fon Bureau of Statistics which com- piles the decennial census and the chief electoral officer who compiles the voters' lists for Dominion elec- tions will be utilized in the regis- tration. Registration in each constitiiency will be under the direction ot a registrar, and a deputy registrar and it is hoped these officials cea all be appointed before the end of the present week. 'Forms for the registration are now being printed. Canadians will have to present | themselves before an official for | registration, No house-to-house canvas will be made as is done in the taking of the census. Public notices of the registration will be given through all available means of publicity and penalties will be provided for {failure to register. Major-General Lafleche will look | eter the military problems of the | department and Mr, Justice Davis | the legal difficulties arising out of compulsory training. Mr. Davis served as Attorney-General under Mr. Gardiner in Saskatchewan. He held several other portfolios and hed the reputation up until the time he went to the bench a year ago of being the driving force in the | Patterson Cabinet. General Lafleche has been con- nected with war and military affairs since 1914, when he left his position as manger of a Montreal branch of Molsons Bank to join the "Van- Doos" for service overseas. Serious- ly wounded in 1916, he was in hos- pital for more than a year before returning to Canada to take charge of demobilizer:ion in Montreal after the war. In 1920 he came to Ottawa as commissioner of the Purchasing Commission of Canada, and has served in various Government posts ever since. He was appointed Dep- uty Minister of Nations] Defense in November, 1932 remaining in that post until last January, when he was appointed Military Attache with the Canadian Legation in Paris. In Memoriam WRIGHT--In loving memory of Robert Thomas and James Wil- liam Wright, suddenly called to rest July 9, 1934. We little thought when leaving home They would no more return, That in death so soon would sleep, And leave us here to mourn, We do not know the pain they bore, We did not see them die, We only know they passed away, And never said good-bye.
