(Continued from Page 1) and gunfire we: get them down without waiting for the sivens. We Had a dreadful week last week, no fest by night or day, but this week {F's not been so bad. Our lads seem t0 be driving them off before they over the coast, but when they over in hundreds at a time a féw of them are bound to get: over, We know the difference in .the -sound of a German. or Bri- sh plans and can hear them com- ing a long while before they get overhead, but they fly so high it's jmpossible to see them with the naked eve. Yesterday we had a lovely fizht over here. We could hear the machine guns and the gooming of the planes, but they were so high it was impossible to see a thing. bad Raids and More Raids t. 6th. i well, raids and more raids. They seem to be more of a nuisance #very day I really can't keep track of the times they come over. Last might's raids lasted from 9.0C pm. until 5.00 am. and now it is 9.00 .m. and here they are again, and think this area seems to be a favourite battle ground. We don't Pother to take to the sheiter now unless they are overhead. That ls, T don't and the master and mis- tress don't, But we do get the chil- dren down at the first sign of dan- 'ger. We had a great thrill the ight pefore last. There was terrific 'gunfire over to the north and look- ing out of the window we saw three German planes in the search lights. Shells were bursting ail around fhem and we expected to see them come down any minute. We did not see them brought down as they 'moved out of our line of vision, but 'we heard afterwards that two were 'brought down. We really should 'ave been in the shelter, but the 'temptation to look out of the win- dow is very great although we are 'always being told to get into shelter 'at the first sound of gunfire, 'Sat. 6.00 pm. *. Well I wrote the above this ing while waiting for the "all clear", In that air raid bombe were dropped on West Wickham about 3 'miles from here and in the fight that was going on while I wrote, one of our Spitfires was shot down. It came down on Hayes Common 'mot far from here. Sorry to say the 'pilot was killed. : By the way, speaking of "Spit- fires" Bill Jenkin's nephew is 'pilot of a Spitfire now He is only 21. I wonder if any of the Auxiliary | members will remember Mrs. .Jen- kin's sister. She was in Oshawa about ten years ago and had just the one little boy, Donald. Well it'is this Donald who now flies the Spit- fire, Mrs. Jenkins was telling me. He sald he had realized his ambi- tion now he had his own fighter plane. No one but we in England can realize what we owe to aur sol- dier lads and the boys in the navy and air 'force. The fliers protect us many times a day and hoys in the navy keen us well supplied with food. I expect the soldiers will have plenty to do presently. Well dear, here is another raid. This makes our third since breakfast. We are 'Just listening to the news and the devils have been all over England 10-day. A hospital in Kent has been Rit today and several patients and Burses killed but I expect you hear 'the news as soon as we do. One thing though, our lads are giving ny as much and more than Zhe Germans are giving us. Well I have to leave this for now. - Given Hot Reception Baturday night, Sept. 7th, 10.10 p.m. Well here I am again with a few more lines. A raid started about 8.40 and the gunfire is terrific and we ; hear the planes up above. 'here was an awful attack made on on at 5.00 ppm We saw wave After wave: of planes going over our Beads and there was a big battle in the air. Some place was set on fire af Wcolwich by hombs dropped there and the fire is still raging. We fan see the glare from here. The whole sky is red and full of emoke and now these devils are here again to see what they have done. They are getting a hot reception though judging by that gunfire. We are in & direct line from the coast to Lon- don s5 wz get an awful lot of enemy mes over. Well I suppose th's ight will pass and if you get this letter it's procf we got through it safe'y i:n't it?

New Holden where my brother lives was bombed and bad- ly smashed up three weeks ago, but it was the bottom end of my brother's street that got the worst. Their house just had the bathroom ceiling brought down, but my sis- ter-in-law and the two children are very nervous now. My brother is an air raid warden and fifty people were killed In his district and over a hundred hurt. Please éxcuse this scribbly writing but I am dead tired, but can't sleep with that awe ful row going on above so thought I may as well fill in the time with a description of the proceedings. During that five o'clock raid to- day I saw two air men coming down by parachute, but they looked like white dots in the sky they were so far off. The planes going over were like sea-gulls they were so high but we counted over fifty in iittle groups of five ana six. Some were not in formation as shells were bursting round them. Dig For Buried Shell Something came dow n in our playing field this evening and has buried itself in the ground, but whether it's a bomb or a piece of shrapnel or shell case we won't know until the soldiers get il out. We are not allowed out in the field until it is cleared. Well checrio for now. I am so sleepy I can't keep my eyes open, Monday morning Sept. 9th. Well what a night of terror for seme people Saturday night was. The raid lasied until neerly 5.00 a.m. Sunday morning. There were several time bombs in this district and they were going off at inter- | vals all day yesterday. The worst of | those kind you never know when to expect the explosion. The soldiers R. F. were here a!l day yesterday | digging In our field and they haven't got to whatever it is yet. They have dug down in a slanting direction for 16 feet now and still haven't reached it. Scturday was the worst raid London has cxperi- enced so far, but although the dam- age done is very pad and over 400 killed and 1,500 wounded, people are | still not scared to death as' you might expect. I feel really proud of my countrymen and women . the way they are standing up to this Yesterday, Sunday, we only had | one day-light raid, but they came | at 8 last night and stayed around until 6.00 am. this morning, but we have all made up our beds in the | cellar and all slept there last night so had a more or less peaceful night | 'and we did not hear much down | there. Bombs Fall All Around Thursday: Well I have been too busy and tired to get this let'er off, Well we have put in some awful nights this week. All-night raids | every night. They come as soon as | darkness falls and stay til! dawn Last night our guns put uo the strongest barrage they have ever | done. The noise was awful all | night, crash after crash ang the crunch of bombs all around us. Sev- eral fell within a few minute's walk of us, and near the station which started a fire. The soldiers finished digging up | our field yesterday. They started Sunday morning and did not get the object out until yesterday after- noon. It was a four point nine shell, unexploded. It was about 15 inches | long by 42 inches in diameter | However, they got it ou* safely, but I expect we should have had some | damage cone to this place rad it | exploded | Streets Strewn With Shrapnel | This morning the streets were strewn with pieces of sarabnel We picked up several, alo shell chips and cartridge cases, so in future J am going to always take cover.

We are all ready now waiting for the siren We all sleep in the cellar, 11 of uc. so there isn' much room to move down there. Our cel- lar is not quite as big as the kitchen at the Hall. We have single bed springs spread on forms and our mattresses laid on the springs. It's quite comfy and although ft gets warm gown there we hzve an electric fan.

The agreement proposed by the unions called for a forty-four-hour week, plus time and one-half for overtime and double time on Sun- days and holidays. This was to apply both on Government work and on repair work done by the company. The board found, how- ever, that the company had been paying basic wages on Government work up to forty-eight hours a week and thereafter time and one-hal! for overtime, Sundays and holidays This practice, - it considers, should be continued. In respect to repair work it recommends that the exist- ing nine-hour-day plus time and one-half for overtime and on Sun- days and holidays, should also be continued. In recommending what amounts to approximately a 10 per cent wage increase the majority report states that "in view of the fact that the employees have enjoyed a 31 per cent increase during the last year, the board is not disposed to rvecom- mend in full the further increases of 47 per cent requested." In the minority report Mr. Mc- Clelland agrees with the forty-eight hour week. He feels that double time should be paid for work on Sundays and public holidays. Ti necessary to put night shifts in operation, the hours governing should be arranged between the management and the men's com- mittee to suit local conditions, and men on this shift should be paid time and one-quarter. He considers the wage increaces set forth in the schedule to the majority report in- sufficient, and submits a draft of an) agreement in which minimum hour- | ly rates of pay are set forth. HOUSE AND SHOP ARE BROKEN INTO | Goods Stolen, Recovered -- Two Soldiers Face Charges WHITBY, Ontario, October 9.-- Charged with breaking into and entering the dwelling of J. M.

A quantity of jewelry stolen from | Mr. Hicks' home, and 18 kegs of beer stolen from the Rousseau shop, | have been recovered, Chief William | Elliott announced. In the Hicks home, it is stated, the men took ol number of valuable articles of gold | | but missed 'a quantity of money. The | house was completely ransacked and to avoid being detected by thelr fingermarks they used towels to Through some Information the men were picked up in Oshawa In | connection with an alleged robbery | of a jewelry store in Bowmanville. | Pressing their investigation further | the police it is stated, discovered | evidence which led to the men being | charged with the Whitby robberies, | Chief William Elliott, who work- | ed with Oshawa officers on the case | was loud in his praise of the assist. officers. TRANSPORT BODY SITS IN WHITBY T0 HEAR APPEAL Session Arranges to Air Protests Against C.N.R. Line Closing WHITBY, Ontario, October 9-- The Board of Transport Commis- sioners for Canada will hold sittings in the Court House, Whitby, on Monday, October 21, commencing at 4:30 p.m,, to hear the application of the Canadian National Railways for an order granting leave to abandon operation of its Port Perry subdi- vision between Whitby (mile 211) ! and Port Perry (mile 19.61) a dis- | tance of 17.50 miles. Application of the railway is being oppoced by the village of Port Perry, the Township of Whitby and the Town of Whitby, the latter lending its moral support only. Tue main contention of the C.N.R. that the line tc be abandoned does not pay operating expences is disputed, and figures already submitted to the Transport Commissioners to back un this contention are likely to be vig- orously challenged. The Council on Monday evening was informed hy Mayor Rowe tha! a meeting of interested municipali- ties, held some time ago at Brooklin, he had pledged the moral but not the financial support of the Town of Whitby, pointing out' that the town would only be affected if 'a move was made to abandon any trackage south through the town. ne Council appointed a commit- tee of the mayor, reeve, clerk and town solicitor to represent the town at the hearing, OSHAWA AND VICINITY PAPER CAUSES CRASH When he was confronted with a string of paper stretched across the road from west to east on Tuesday evening, Les, Colvin, 320 King street east, stopped his car on Simco2 Street near the sub-way, William Bellingham, 96 Gladstone Avenue, collided with Colvin's car, Jamag- ing his own right rear fender and tire, and Colvin's left rear fender. OVERLOOKED RELATIVE Referring to Rev. Father Francis P. Duffey, chaplain of the "Fight- ing 69th", last Friday, The Times omitted to mention one of his clos- est surviving relatives, Miss A. Mc- Nally, North Oshawa, who is a first cousin. Those listed previously were related to Father Duffey through marriage. HITS CAR IN FRONT Edith Roach, Cherrywood, driving west on King Street West yester- day, collided with the rear of a car driven by Anthony Gascoyne, To- ronto, who had stopped to pick up a Dbassenger. The right front fen- der, head-light, and radiator of her car were damaged to the extent of abcut $35. About $15 damage was done to the rear of the other car. TO DISCUSS REPORT "Will the Rowell Commission Re- port be pidgeon-holed, after all the expense it has caused the country?" is the subject for discussion at this Friday's meeting of the Oshawa Property Owner's Association. The meeting is schdeuled for 8 o'clock | in Hotel Genosha, and President | Alex Durie urges all members and | other interested p:rties to be pre- sent. PUBLIC INVITED | The public meeting, sponsored by | the Oshawa Chamber of Commerce | at the Genosha Hotel which Hon. D. McArthur, newly-appointed min- ister of education, will address, is open to anyone interested. While | invitations were snecially extended | to teachers and school trustees, everyone interested in education regardless of whether a special in- vitation was received or not is wel- come to attend. Ladies are special- ly urged to attend. PLAN RESOLUTIONS The directors of the Oshawa Chamber of Commerce will meet this week to prepare resolutions for | consideration by Ontario Association of Boards of Trade and Chambers of Commerce when that organiza- tion meets in November. The an- riual meeting of the Association was | not held last year due to the out- | break of war but if affiliated organi- zations express a desire for a mee'- ing this year one will be held. It is expected that there will be a defin. ite demand for the conference as there are many pressing problems | which need solution and which such an organization can give guidance to the government.

Largest beneficiary was the Red Cross, which received $550; the 1.0. D.E. and Canadian Legion each re- ceived $450; the Salvation Army $150, and the Whitby War Effort Committee $98.37. Certificates of registration under the War Charities Act were filed with the clerk and produced in council from the Red Cross, I.OD.E. Legion and Salvation Army, while the Whitby War Effort Committee advised that it had applied for re- gistration and while a certificate had not been received, it had the assurance from the government that it would be forthcoming. The Council decreed that tha grant to the Whitby War Effort Committee is to be paid over when a certificate of registration has been produced for the satisfaction of the town clerk. The Council two weeks ago, de- cided that only the Red Cross, the 1.0.D.E,, Legion and Salvation Army thould share the patriotic grant after filing with the clerk their cer- tificates of registration, The Council. on Monday night, however, after listening to a letter from the Whitby War Effort Com- mittee, was unanimous that it was entitled to share in the money, more particularly when it was a purely local patriotic organization set up at the request of the Council and citi- zens and spending all its money in the town. One of the undertakings of the Committee it was pointed out, was to assist :n the maintenance and education of pupils from St. Hilde's College. Whitby, England, for which worthy cause a consider- able sum has now been collected. To Assist Regiment In the case of the Whitby branch of the Legion, the $450 was given on the understaixling that $200 of this amount is to be donated to "D" Company, Second Battalion of the Ontario Regiment which has its headquarters in Whitby, towards the purchase of clothing and equipment not furnished by the government. Dividing the Grant In cutting up the patriotic melon, the Council gave consideration to the fact that the Red Cross and the I.ODE. have a large number of local workers representative of all churches and many organizations in the town who have been hard at work for over a year making and shipping all kinds of supplies and carrying on other patriotic work. In the case of the Legion and the Salvation Army, Council did not overlook the fac! both these organ- jzations are doing a splendid work both at home and abroad for.the men of Canada's fighting forces and and that directly many Whitby sol- diers are the beneficiaries. Reeve A. M. Irwin said that the council would like to have granted more to the Whitby War Effort Committee, but the amount of money Obituary HELEN NECHAY Sympathy is extended to Mr. and Mrs, John Nechay, 702 Cedar Sireet by their many friends in the death of their infant daughter, Helen, aged five months, who passed awny yesterday, The funeral is to be held from the family residence on Sat- |' urday, October 12, with a service at 2.00 pm. to be conducted by Rev. Mr. Crozier, minister of Cedardale United Church. Interment in the Union Cemetery. NO STRIKE VOTE, BODY ROOM MEN ti (Continued from Page 1) of what transpired, it is understood that as a result of that conference and also other matters placed be- fore the mass meeting last night by Hans McIntyre, chairman of the shop committee, Thomas MacLean, president of local 222 and George Burt, regional director, it was de- cided to forego the vote to strike. Members of the executive com- mittea of the UAW.A. told the press last night following the meet- ing that the policy of the United convention is that all grievance Automobile Workers as laid down in procedure must be exhausted before strike action may be taken. This apparently had not been done, dl- though part of the procedure had been commenced but had not reach- ed the point of exhaustion. Following the walk-out last Fri- day noon, the employees of the body room were given "quit slips," which is tatamount to being dis- charged. But at the conference Wednesday afternoon the 88 men were reinstated pending the result of negotiations which open to- morrow morning at 9 o'clock be- tween executives of General Motors, the shop committee and the inter- national representative of the U.A. W.A Ballots had been prepared and a number of ballot boxes were bor- rowed from the city for the secret balloting which was to have taken place last night at the O.C.V.I, but none were used. Following is the statement given to the press by George Burt, Cana- dian representative of the interna- tional executive board, UAWA, last night following the emergency meeting of the membership of Local 222: "The United Automobile Workers & the Company reached a mutual agreement that the men involved in the dispute in the Oshawa plant would return to work pending ne- gotiations. The top management of General Motors will meet the shop committee and the Int. Rep. on Friday, Oct. 11, at 9 am. "The men requested the manage- ment to meet them tomorrow (Thursday) but Mr, Carmichael, vice-president and general manager | was engaged in securing an order | which may result in a considerable amount of additional work to the employes of General Motors. "The policy of the United Auto- mobile Workers as laid down in convention is that all grievance pro- cedure must be exhausted before strike action may be taken. It is unfortunate that the management did not facilitate the hearing of | the grievances of the men concern- ed earlier which would have made relations between it and the em- ployes more harmonious. at the Council's disposal would not permit. The Reeve also stressed the great building, which is 515 feet long from east to west. | Thus though the - high altar was destroyed, the cholr, which is next | to it toward the west, the dome, | which is next, and the great nave at the west end were unaffected ex- cept that the choir arch was dam- aged. Only a few weeks ago, St. Paul's | was menaced by time bombs, which Royal Engineers removed at risk of their lives. A high explosive bomb went through. the east transept of the cathedral. The tall candlesticks and the beautiful cross above the high altar were obliterated, but the choir stalls, designed by Grinling Gibbons, two precious candlesticks designed by Sir Edwin Lutyens, and the bishop's throne were un- damaged. The reredos was buried debris but not damaged. The stained glass windows at the east end of the structure were dam- aged slightly. Debris was flung over a wide area by the blast and it was expected that the centre transept would be closed for some time while repairs were made, Services will be held in the chapel in the crypt. The bomb exploded as it hit the roof, knocking a hole at the apex »f the choir arch. The damage to the altar was caused by the falling of heavy stone blocks from the arch to the floor 90 feet below, Arch Holds Only the care with which the arch was constructed saved that whole part of the structure from caving in. The keystones of the arch were dislodged but the rest of the arch held, reducing damage to the chapel considerably. The altar of ebony and bronze was demolish- ed under Behind the reredos" the small Jesus Chapel was covered with a thick layer of dust but undamaged except for some holes in staineq' glass windows. The recumbant statue atop the tombs of the former canon still lay with folded hands, The damage was structural and can be repaired. Most of the cathe- dral's irreplaceable art treasures are intact, ' | and the various municipalities car- point that it had been County Council's intention to distribute the money among local organizations rying on patriotic work. AXIS OFFERS CANADATO 5, (Contirued from Page 1) sald, would be glad to see the United States, Argentina and Bra- zil increase their territorial posses- sions at the expense of Britain. "British. Honduras, British Gui- ana and the Falkland Islands would logically belong to Brazil and Ar- gentina," Appelius said. Japan is quite willing, he added, to give Australia and New Zealand to the United States, because she does not regard them as part of her vital space." "The United States people have two roads to follow. Firstly, they can await the destruction of the British Emvire and become its heir on the American Continent and perhaps elsewhere. Secondly, they can tie un their destiny with the British Empire in an effort to pre- vent or mitigate the destruction of Britain, "Germany, Italyr.and Japan have made clear their intentions to ex- pel the British from their respec- tive vital spaces, which include Europe, Africa and Greater Asia. "The vital spaces of the Axis and Japan do not include India, Cana- da, the West Indies, Australia and New Zealand," the newspaper said.

After the grievance pro- answer from the management is ret satisfactory to the union, any further action that is deemed ne- cessary will be promptly taken and will receive the full support of the International Union." OBTAINED GOODS WITH BAD CHEQUES Man in Court Here Also Faces Charge of b Perjury WHITBY, Ontario, October 9.-- Pleading guilty to two. counts of false pretences, Leslie E. McLean reversed his plea on a third to "not guilty" when Magistrate F. S. Ebbs asked him to do so, McLean was remanded one for sentence in. police court here Tues- day on the charges to which he pleaded guilty and remanded for two weeks on an additional charge of perjury in taking out a marriage license to which he pleaded not guilty. The accused admitted obtaining $10 from J. McDuff, Brooklin, through a cheque and also to ob- taining goods to the value of .75 and $2.25 in cash from G. Barker, Whithy, through a similarly worth- less cheque. He first pleaded guilty to obtaining $140 in gasoline and $8.54.in cash from Benjamin Lem- erg, Whitby garageman, but re- versed his plea after Lemberg ad- mitted that the cheque, handed him on Sunday, September 15th, was made out for September 16th and therefore post-dated.
