One member complained that he had only one good dress shirt left as he had been unable to replenish his dwindling stock of shirts in the past few years, "The situation now is that I have neither shirts nor soap," he protested. "This is a serious prob- lem and can only be solved by ra- tioning these items." The meeting also decided to add shortening to the list of goods to be rationed. By another motion, the meeting voted $30 to the Community Chest Fund. The Federal government will be urged not to allow immigrants into the country until Canadian ex-war workers and returned soldiers are re-employed in industry, it was de- cided at a meeting of local 1817 United Steelworkers of America last night.

This time, however, the glib salesman is the harbinger of death and purveyor of a dreadful philosophy which would strip the stewbums of their pipedreams of to- morrow and make them face them- selves as are, The play's title is a grim pun on Hickey's favorite bawdy preference and his role as a messiah of death. * bo» O'Neill's message would seem to Oshawa and district.

The playwright would appear to snclude that his own pipedream-- 2 society of contemplative realists-- is not workable for the majority of us. It's just as well. Otherwise, Mr. O'Neill's audiences these nights might be marching trancelike from the theatre, heading for the East River like lemmings. * » Outstanding in uh magnificant cast are James Barton--the Jeeter Lester of thousands of "Tobacco Road" performances in Canada and the United States--who plays Hic- key; Dudley Digges, who plays the sinner-loving saloon keeper; Tom Pedi, the bartender-pimp and Carl Benton Reid, the ex-anarchist. They perform on a set as sombre and shadowed as a Rembrandt. Canadian Caper, Walter Huston, home in Toronto with "The Apple of His Eye" wowed his audience no more with his convincing por- trayal of a widowed farmer kay- oed by the hired girl than with a curtain talk.

Currell, in charge of the drive in the larger firms, said that at least 25 firms have adopted the payroll savings plan and in many' cases committees for the plant canvasses were formed last week. The canvass in General Motors is in full swing and many of the smaller firms are already well ad- vanced, he said. Among those which have handed in complete returns are the Bnt Foundry, Adanac Ma- chine Company and the Dominion Bank. Officials said that it was expect- ed returns would be compiled suf- ficiently to make possible the publi- cation of the first list of donors to- morrow. Throughout the city, the 'Red Feather" has become 'a familiar symbol while in the business sec- tion displays illustrating the work of the various agencies benefiting from the campaign have appeared in many of the store windows.

Brings A Total of First Day of Community Chest Drive $5,421,25 The organizer Hayden MacDonald and Lt. Col. L. W. Currell delivered Addresses Over CKDO Last Night . . . Urging Citizens 'to Reach the Minimum Objective of $55,000 by Sat. Night Announcing that $5421.25 had been turned into the Community Fund Office Hayden Macdonald, Organizer of the Oshawa Commun- ity Chest Campaign expressed the hope in an address over Radio Sta- tion CKDO last night, that the Committee would like to see the campaign completed by next Satur- day. The text of the address is as follows: Radio Broadcast Monday, October 21st, 1046. Mr, H. Macdonald: During the past few weeks it has beén a distinct pleasure for me as organizer of our Community Chest Campaign to be associated with so many ' of you working togeth- er in a common cause that will without doubt, be of great benefit to our city. I feel you would like me to tell you of some of the prac- tical aspects of the Community Fund Campaign, so to begin with, may I briefly acquaint you with the set-up of the organization. The General Committee under the chairmanship of Mr, Carrol An- derson peruses and passes on the amount of money requested by the sixteen participating organizations. After this is done, the Organizer, in conjunction with the Treasurer, Mr, Robert Argo, the Secretary, Mr. J. J. English and the Publicity Chair- man, Mr. Cyril Souch, secures the services of twelve Team Captains, each of whom takes charge of a particular sphere of the Campaign. The team Captains are:--Lt.-Col. L. W. Currell, Geo, Fletcher, W. Dew- land, Stan Everson, George Hart, J. H. Beaton, George Shreve, Keith Gahan, F. Grindley, Don Burns, Alec Ross, Major A. P. Simester, and Bill Murphy, Kinsmen Club. The Team Captains, in turn, se- cure the necessary number of can- vassers to assist them to present to you the direct opportunity of mak- ing your contribution. All of these canvassers contribute their time and effort voluntarily on your be- half. The Treasurer's office is sit- uated at 23% Simcoe Street North and all donations are turned in dally to this office. The Campaign Headquarters are at the Genosha Hotel. (Phone 1800), we have received magnificent support from Oshawa's new Radio Station CK.D.O., and George El- liott, its manager, and also from merchants in various ways such as window displays and truck advertis- ing. A complete survey has been made and it is believed that the canvas- sers who are now calling upon you are fully acquainted with each one of you and will miss no one. It is possible, however, that someone may be missed," and should that someone be you, will you please mail or bring your contribution to the Treasurer's Office at 23% Sim- coe Street North or phone 1800 for a canvasser to call. An official re- ceipt will be given to every sub- scriber which may be used for in- come tax deduction purposes. You will be Interested to learn the result of the first day's canvass, up to five o'clock tonight.--The amount turned in to our Commun- ity Fund Office is $5421.25 and as I speak contributions are still coming in at an exciting rate from all over the city. Ladies and gentlemen the Cam- paign is on. The minimum objec- tive is $55,000. We would all like to see the job completed by next Sat- urday. A lot will depend upon your ready response, and we are sure from to-day's results, that when next Saturday rolls around every- body in the city will be wearing the Red Feather, the signs of the good deed. A half a day or four hours pay from everyone will mean the certain success of our Community Fund Campaign. The following questions were ask- ed by the announcer and answered by Lt.-Col. Currell: * 1. Q. What comprises the Payroll Section of the Community Chest? A. The Payroll Section is compos ed of the larger plants in Oshawa-- as follows: Alger Press Limited, An- glo-Canadian Drug Co. Ltd, Bell Telephone Company Ltd, Coulter Mfg. Co. Ltd, Duplate Canada Limited, Fittings Limited, T. G. Gale Limited, Gay Company Limit- ed, General Motors of Canada Ltd. Jambi Sportswear Company, Kohen Boxes (Oshawa) Ltd., Mundy-Good- fellow Print| Co. Ltd. and Times Publishing mpany of Oshawa Ltd, McCallum Industries Ltd, Ontario Malleable Iron Co. Ltd. Ontario Motor Sales Ltd. Ontario Steel Products Co. Ltd, Oshawa Railway Company, Oshawa Wood Products Co., Pedlar People Limited, Reynolds International Pen Co. (Canada) Ltd, Robson Leather Co. Ltd., Skinner Company Ltd, 2. Q To what extent does the Payroll Section assist the Commun- ity Chest in reaching its objective? A. For the Community Chest, as was' the practice for the Victory Loan Campaigns during the war, Canvassing Committees have been organized in the various plants, and the folks have the opportunity to give through their own plant Can- vassing Committee. In many plants substantially the same organization and Canvassing work. The importance of the contribu- tion made by the Payroll Section as a unit is demonstrated by the fact it represented in excess of 25% of the total objective in the 1945 Campaign. 3. Q. What are the advantages of the Payroll Section Canvass? Committee are carrying out the El 1 A. There are many distinct ad- | vantages which include the follow- | ng: (1) It affords a most convenient | & pertunity for every person ém- yed in our Oshawa plants to give to this worthy Annual Community Effcrt, and in the environment of his own daily occupation. (if) It insures that there will be a minimum of duplication of Can- vassing effort and that individuals will not suffer the annoyance of repeated approaches by Canvassers which would occur under a less or- ganized method, (ii) It affords a choice of giving immediately in cash or through the medium of payroll deduction, which may be distributed over one or more pay periods. This is a convenience much ap- preciated and made possible through the co-operation of the Manage- ment of the various plants who make this plan. possible, and it has, of course, the unqualified support of the various Labor Unions. (iv) A further important advan- tage is that the Canvass is carried out with a minimum of fuss and effort, and is all over in a matter of hours in even the larger plants, 4. Q. Do the folks prefer and sup- port the Payroll Section plan? A. Results from past experience definitely prove that this plan is preferred and supported. Opportunity to give through this convenient and organis:d medium is quite apparently well appreciated. 5. Q. We realize this 1s only the first day of the Campaign, but can you bring us any report on how the Campaign has gone in the Payroll Section so far? A, It is indeed a pleasure to re- port that the first day has closed with most satisfactory results in the Payroll Section. Most plants completed the organ- mittee last week and where in readi- ization of their Canvassing Com- 'Slashed Portrait of President Truman Wi the damage could be repaired.

One or two plants, however, have yet ta hold their final meeting with the Canvassing Committee and commence the canvass tomorrow, One plant ---- Fittings Limit- ed--report their Canvass completed and some departments from figures ocmpiled so far, already show 100% subscription, 4 It is most encouraging to note that the total reported by this plant so far is approximately 85% of the total raised in the 1945 Com- munity Chest Campaign. Other plants report satisfactory progress during the first day of canvass, The General Motors of Canada Limited canvass is in full swing. The indications therefore are that if all plants do as well during the balance of the week our objective will be reached, 6. Q. Have you any suggestions to make with respect to the Payroll Section Canvass now. under way? A. Yes. I am glad you asked that question. For the benefit of those plants who will commence their Canvass tomorrow it should be stated that experience to date indicate that Canvassers should commence imme- diately their Committee Chairman gives the "Go" signal. Canvass each individual on your list as quickly as possible. He is expecting you and prefers to be canvassed as early as possible after your plant campaign opens, If you are asked questions you have not the answers for, get them from your Committee Chairman at once--this is his function, May I say to the Payroll Section Subscribers be prepared to complete your card promptly when the can- vasser arrives. He is a volunteer worker as are all Community Chest Canvassers, and he probably hes a long list of people to canvass. 7. Q. How do you think the Campaign will go? A, I have every confidence our Objective will be reached if we each give one-half day, or four hours' pay . . . A slogan selected to express the objective. Remember it is ONE campaign for ONE year-- ONE united effort for ONE common cause--ONE more "FEATHER" in "CAPS" of the people of Oshawa. It would seem as though the people of Oshawa who have been canvass. ed so far realize that EVERYBODY benefits because EVERYBODY is giving. If you have not already done so, do your good deed tomor- row--Wear a RED FEATHER. Lewis Demands New Mine | Pact Washington, Oct. 22--(AP)--John L. Lewis tossed the threat of a new soft coal strike at the Truman ad- ministration today, hinting broadly at new wage demands and charging the government with breach of contract. Mr. Lewis' new challenge, ending nearly six months of comparative silence, could mean a walkout of the United States' 400,000 soft-coal mi- ners by Nov, 20--on the ice edge of winter, Unleashing his attack with sud- den fry, the United Mine Workers' union boss accused the government of contract breaches resulting in "the loss of millions of dollars due to the mine workers." In a letter to Interior Secretary J. A, Krug yesterday, Mr. Lewis de. manded that negotiations for a completely new contract hegin by Nov. 1, and coupled with it a threat to tear up the existing contract in 30 days. ' London, Oct. 21--(CP)--Britain's songwriters are up in arms because they say American music has a "monopoly" in Britain, When the workers in crotchets and semi-quavers assembled in protest recently, songmaker Tommy Conner asked why the BBC bans some songs on grounds of "bad taste" while tolerating an Amer- ican song like "Jeepers Creepers" which, he said, "Covers blasphemy with colloquialism." Irwin Dash, an American domicil- ed in London who publishes Brit- ish songs, said "American music is a monopoly over here--not competi. tion." Now a committee appointed by the songwriters under the chair- manship of Bruce Sievier is urging better presentation of British songs in Britain. "On the other hand," Sievier told The Canadian Press, "for some years past British songs have been top sellers in the United States and in Canada as well." Two 'recent examples, he sald, were "I'll Gather Lilacs" by actore composer-playwright Ivor Novello and "Gipsy" by composer Billy Reid. "The first work of the commit. tee," Sievier said, "will be to gather facts and figures showing the amount of British newsprint used Britain to foreign songwriters." Later the committee will seek an embargo by which orchestras and artists will have to include 25 per cent British songs in their pro- grams, He pointed out that similar measures have already been taken to safeguard the British movie in- dustry. "At present only about 19 per cent of British songs are featured in Britain." Irwin Dash said after many years of music publishing in Britain he was convinced the British standard of popular songwriting was as high --if not higher--than that in the United States. "For the past 26 years British songwriters have composed many tunes that were smash hits in America," he said. "Take for ex- ample 'Show Me The 'Way To Go Home', that was a British tune by a then unknown composer and it is known all over the world, It Is practically a classic." A BBC official said the corpora- tion had never discriminated against British or American songs. All songs were treated strictly on their merit and quality. Debroy Somers, popular London bandleader, said he had for the last 25 years featured British songs Have That Broken Electrio Iron Repaired by Our Ex- perts.

Betty Taylor, 15 years old, sald that she and her mother had been on their way, at night, to the trans- port depot where her father works, "We were walking on the should- er of the highway with my mother next to the highway. I saw a car swerve from the west side to the east. I shouted a warning to my mother as it came towards us. We stepped to the ditch and then the car stopped and a man came out and came back. He sald to mother 'that would be all right' Then I went down and told my father what had happened." To defense counsel, the witness sald that there was nothing unus- ual about the judge when he came back after the accident, Dr, F. Robertson of Cobourg said that, on being called to the the accident, he found Mrs. Taylor bad- ly injured. On later examination at the hospital he found that she had received a fractured leg, fract- ured arm, fractured pelvis and sev- ere lacerations, He said that he didn't recollect anything about the judge's condition as he was too busy with his patient, Saw Auto Swerve James Quigley, who was walking on the side of the highway testi fled that he heard a thud and a scream and then saw a car swerve on the highway and come, to a stop about 75 feet from him.
