Wartime Houses (Continued from Page 1) of 75, however, certain provisions were made for the possible sale of the homes.

The amount of $1 is also paid for street lighting services, On sale of the houses they would become subject to the regular mu- nicipal taxes.

Committee Heads Fully realizing the great public responsibility entrusted to them, members of the Oshawa Kiwanis Club willingly 'undertook this anti- Tuberculosis crusade, with the fol- lowing serving in key positions: General Chairman T. B. Seal Com- mittee and Survey, Ted Johnson; Treasurer, Fred Bartlett; Chairman, T.B. Survey, Dave Jamieson; Chair- man Canvassers' Committee, Evan Reynolds; Vice Chairman, Bill Mc- Clennan; Chairman Clinic Commit- tee, Reg. Gibson; Chairman, School Children Committee, Ev. Disaey; Chairman Publicity, Cyril Souch. The following were in charge of the Suburban Canvass: Morley Wyman, Keith Gahan, Wes Piatti, Harry Gay. Financed by the Oshawa Kiwanis Club, the Port Perry Lions Club conducted the survey in Port Perry, Raglan and surrounding districts. Particular thanks is due to the Ki- wanis ladies, who helped most will- ingly and effectively .at the clinics. During the survey, a full-time sec- retary was employed to look after the vast amount of detail involved. The city was divided into 44 sec- tions with 'a Kiwanis captain in charge of each section, aided by voluntary workers who canvassed each district thoroughly. Thanks to the splendid job they carried through, it was impossible to con- duct this vitally important survey most successfully. An important i Possible Search For Valentine Gifts On In Earnest With Valentine's Day only a mat- ter of hours away and with stores Pro will reach i y. Even at 10 am. today customers of all ages -- men and women; and children who missed school in or- der that their friends should not be disappointed, were scann shelves and Valentine-decked t: that ordinarily displayed toys, novelties books or knitting-wear. They saw cards to sult budgets -- any- from .cheap cent-a-piece nov! that make only the chil. dren laugh to lavish lace-trimmed masterpieces that make hearts weep: at $1.50 a-piece. Words like these were splashed across their faces: "For you Sweetheart"; "To My Wife 'on Valentine's Day"; "To Mother with Love on Valentine's Day"; and for the children: "Crazy to be Your Valentine." ; Of expensive cards one store- glerk said that of a steck of at least 80, only two remained. Pigtorial effects included every- thing from cloud-sitting elves, bows hand and arrows poised at far tant hearts; to lovers in the moonlight -- under hearts. The rush on practical gifts is not reported great. However, mer- chants have taken full opportunity of the season to deck their windows with hearts and arrows and other appropriate decorations. Though choeoldtes, cosmetics and toiletries were not commonly seen in pre-war heart-shapes some jewellers dis- played heart-shaped lockets, brace- lets and other fancy items amid resplendid posters. Schools will not observe Valen- tine's Day to any great extent. However publi¢ school children may look forward to after-recess parties. factor in the success of this project was the educational publicity de- voted to it through efforts of Don Crozier, president of the Port Perry Lions Club, the radio broad- cast delivered by Kiwanians Reg. Gibson, Evan Reynolds and Dave Jamieson, and in the words of Chairman Dave Jamieson "thr the effebtive advertising and edi- torial columns of The Daily Times- Gazette." Pig-Knife Death Tool Cornwall, Feb. 13 (CP)--Belief that the crude, pig-sticking knife earlier identified by Prederick La- ma as "my dad's", might have been the instrument that caused the death of Mrs. Mary Kate Lama was expressed today by Dr, G. K. Cam- eron, Cornwall pathologist. The evidence came as the trial of the boy's father, William Earl Lama, entered its third day. Lama is charged with murder in the slay- ing of his wife. Yesterday a story of family bickering, not only be- tween his wife but between his sons Frederick, 17, and Daniel, 12, was unfolded at the trial, Dr. Cameron said today he judged the woman had been dead about 12 hours when he performed a post- mortem between 10.30 and 11 o'clock on the night of Aug. 16. He said she had suffered a stab wound in the left side of the neck, a deen scalp wound, and another stab wound in the back. The stab wound in the back had penetrated the lung. Shown the exhibits previously entered by the Crown, Dr. Fraser said it was "quite possible" the stab wounds had been inflicted by the pig-sticking knife, but he was doubtful if the scalp wound had been inflicted by the club. Under cross-examination, the doctor said that during a struggle it would have been hard to give the woman a di- rect blow with the club, and said "I had the impression it was caused by a piece of car spring, or some Oiler similar weapon, rather than a club." Witness also told defence coun- sel that death, with the combin- ation of wounds, probably came within a half-minute. He said there was no way of knowing whether the blow or the stabbing came first. The victim would have dropped in her tracks from the stab wound in the back, he added. He said that with all the wounds, it was not like- ly she could have raised her arms and waved. Second witness called by the Crown this morning, James Cooper, Moulinette bread driver, swore he had gone to the Lama home about 3.30 p.m. Aug. 16, and had not seen the body or any sign that anything was wrong. He said he had blown his horn in the yard, and when no one answered, drove away. Cooper's story was corroborated by George Derousie, of Mille Roches, who also swore he had seen noth- ing wrong at the Lama home, 0.C.A.

Canadian delegate to the Uni- ted Nations, Mr, Martin said peace would always be in jeopar- dy as long as there wee people wanting for food and shelter. Criticizing the attitude of "people who say we should not send re- lief to certain countries," he sald, "That is no way to demonstrate the Christian spirit in which we profess to believe, The core of the intergational problem is the hu- man problem." Earlier in the day, the final session was given over to discus- sion of the problems of turnip growing and improvement, talks on the fertilizer situation, and el- ection of officers for 1947, The work of agricultural ex- perts in' the elimination of spoil- age by insect attack and plant dis- ease in turnips was explained to the group. Among those whose research was mentioned were Dr. MacLachan, of the Ontario Agri- cultural College, Guelph, who dis- covered a borax spray for growing turnips to combat water core, a disease which in some cases caus- ed the loss of 95 per cent of crops in certain areas, William Montcalm, agricultural representative at Cochrane, said, "what we need more in Northern Ontario than any place is co-oper- ation between farmers, There are always some farmers who are bet- ter salesmen . . , and it is good business to have these men sell the products than having a great number of men on the same mar- ket.

Caldwell, Sund- ridge, U.K. Crisis Hits Export Markets London, Feb. 13 (Reuters)--The brunt of Britain's industrial catas- trophe is falling on exports because | OM home consumption is being sub- stantially maintained while produc- tion is not. This, then is only the prelimin- ary crisis. What will happen next winter, when Britain will have. far less external credit left with which to foot the bill? The Canadian loan is disappear- ing faster than the American, and is nearly half gone. Nearly all drawings on the American loan have been for consumption, not for capital goods for which the loan was intended. The first big draw- ing for capital account now is coming and causes immediate anx- iety here. It comprises $100,000,000 to buy some of the United States ships at present chartered to Britain but which cannot be' chartered much longer. Some specific. British exports may benefit from the crisis. If fuel shortage causes even sterner aus- terity in such things as the produce tion of 'automobiles for "pleasure" motoring hee, there might be more for export. But the general effect must be a cut in exports, in order to survive the production crisis without an in- tolerable fall in the home standard of living. Before this catastrophe Britain was exporting 116 per cent of pre-war volume, and had to raise it to 175 per cent before she could even pay her way, let alone repay a penny of war debts. Events of the tragic week are bound to cause an immediate retrogression even from the present inadequate level of exports, and they will long brake the great further export advance needed for more solvency. B.T.C. Rules | ---- -- OA R. J. McCONNELL | AUTO RADIO SALES AND SERVICE Its Powers Unlimited Ottawa, Feb. 13--(CP)--Rejecting a move by seven provinces, the Beard of Transport Commissioners today ruled it had jurisdiction to deal with the application of the Canadian railways for 30-per-cent freight rate increases. The ruling came cn a motion by the provinces for a reference to the Supreme Court of Canada to deter- mine whether the Board had au- thority to order a general percen- || tage freight increase as sought by the railways. The provinces had claimed the Railway Act did not givé the Board jurisdiction in a general application but only in connection with #pecific rate changes. In reading the unanimous deci- sion cf the six-man board, chief || commissioner J. A. Cross said the Beard's statutory rower was so wide || that specific authorization did not appear necessary. The course followed in this case, the decision said, was realistic and practical." Protest against the Board trying the case without a court reference was lodged this week by seven prov- inces--all except Ontario and Que-, bec--as hearings cpened before the commissioner on the railroads' pro- pesals, designed to bring them $85,- 000,000 a year in additional revenue, Sport Shorts From Britain London, Feb. 11 -- (CP) -- This Busitiu of identical twins com ing for the same position in the same sport is becoming confusing.

Buchan said Holland's leading clubs, all amateur although broken-time pay- ment is allowed, are in favor of taking the plunge. "In the circumstances they can- not be expected to reach the stand- ard of the professional interna- tional teams and they believe they will be unable to do so unless their players are paid," Buchan said. A London west end bookmaker {| reports what he calls the bet made with him, It happened in 1041 when, just before the Lincoln- shire Handicap, a farmer ed him and ucing an outsize Spanish onion, asked whether he could lay him £100 ($400) to the onion on Gaston, a 50-to-1 chance. .
