PAGE FOUR THE DAILY TIM ES-GAZETTE WEDNESDAY, JULY 30, 1947 LATEST NEWS OF T HE COUNTY TOWN OF WHITBY Business Office, Miss G. Macpherson; Wm. T. Williams, Editor. Phone 703, All Departments Rotary Hears Address By I.M.C. Asst. Secretary a h dvi Dr, Ellis Albright. assistant sec- retary of the New York office of the International Missionary Coun- cil, which recently completed a 14- day conference in the Ontario Ladies College here, yesterday addressed the Whitby Rotary Club at the re- gular weekly luncheon meeting held in the Royal Hotel, Dr. Albright was pressed into service as a speaker at the last moment, when his superior, Dr, William Decker, of New York, was called back to his home office. Dr. Albright briefly outlined the progress 'made by the I.M.C. deleg- ates during the recent conference, and emphasized the fact that the IM.C. had reached a stage now where it had' to brace itself against what he' termed "the frontier of daring missionary work." The speaker said that the I.M.C. was organized in 1921 and that since that time had acted as a multiple link between National Missionary Councils in the missionary sending countries and National Christian Councils in the missionary receiving countries. 3 Dr. Albright said that at the re- cently concluded conference there were 68 delegates representing 41 different countries throughout the world. He added that the results achieved at the conference could only be compared with those pro- duced at the two previous world conferences held in Jerusalem in 1928 and in Madras, India, in 1938. Several main topics and con- clusions resulted from the talks and sub-meetings held at the conference and they were listed by Dr. Albright as follows: Physical destruction, Hu- man Suffering, Inflation, Dislocation of Population, Fragmentation of So- ciety and Racial Tension. He said that the physical destruc- tion and human suffering through- out the world today because of the war was almost "beyond belief." Missionaries would devote a great deal of their time to aiding the un- fortunate people of the world wher- ever they happened to be. To exemplify the degree of infla- tion in some countries Dr. Albright told a missionary board in China that was forced to pay missionaries more than a million dollars per month (Chinese) and even with this tremendous amount of money the missionaries were barely able to crape by. As examples of racial tension throughout the world Dr. Albright mentioned the Arabs and Jews in Palestine, the Europeans and na- tives in Africa and the Hindus and Moslems in India. He stated that the only continent that was able to offer and provide any help and to carry on the lead in mission work was North America. He said that the rest of the world would sooner or later come to rel on this fact. ' Expressing surprise and pleasure at the "amazing degree of agree- ment that prevailed at the confer- ence" Dr. Albright said that the nfficials of the IM.C. were sure that ghe results and understandings reached and achieved by the confer- ence would strongly influence the trend of missionary thinking and action for many years to come. In closing Dr. Albright expressed the appreciation of the IM.C. and the delegates for the way in which Whitby citizens, officials and mer- chants had "looked after the de- iegates from far away lands." He said that the name Whitby would go ringing around the world because it happened to be the location of the 1947 conference and that for years to come people who had never heard of Whitby and had scarcely heard of Ontario would be using the name in the course of mission- ary discussions. The Babylonians had a numer- ical system pased on 60 instead of 10. .

BEbbs told Murray Griffin, Pickering Township in Whitby Po- lice Court yesterday afternoon, "but under the circumstances you are worthy of commendation because of your actions, since you were the only person present, and you co-operated with the police in every way." Grif- fin was fined $15 and costs or 15 days in jail. and a charge of dan- gerous driving was dropped.

"Flying Fraud" Gets Eight Months For 10 False Cheques Convicted on 10 charges of ob- taining money under false pretenses with intent to fraud, Victor Bonar. Mimico, was sentenced to eight months definite, and four months indefinite in the Guelph reform- atory when he appeared before Ma- gistrate Frank S. Ebbs, in Whitby Police Court Tuesday afternoon, Six sentences of two months, and three each of one month were also handed down by the Magistrate to the bogus cheque artist, but they will all be served concurrently. Bonar was taken into custody in an Oshawa beverage room by Osh awa police, following instructions from Whitby Police Chief William Elliott. He had been employed for a short time by Trans-Canada Air- lines, and he used his uniform, and supposedly authentic credentials to help cash' the cheque. In nearly all the cases, he told the person cash- ing the cheque that he had just got the cheque out of the mail, and it was after banking hours, In passing sentence, Magistrate Ebbs stated "This is a mean type of offense, especially in view of the wholesale number of cheques cashed and although the amounts are fair- ly small, this was only to make them easier to cash." Harold Sypes, convicted of break- ing and entering the home of Wil- liam Heron, Pickering Township, and stealing the sum of $12. appear- ed for sentence, and received a three month term in the County Gaol. Sypes possesses a lengthy record on similar charges dating from 1935, until a few months ago. Fined $15 And Costs License Suspended For Dangerous Driving Lyall Hummel, Highland Creek, was fined $15. and costs or 15 days in jail, and his driver's license was suspended for a period of three months when he was convicted on a charge of dangerous driving before Magistrate Frank S. Ebbs in Whitby Police Court, Tuesday afternoon. "Your manner of driving was not what it should have been -in this kind of weather," the magistrate said in passing sentence, "but I am dismissing of charge of failing to remain at the scene of an accident, although you didn't do everything you should have done, because you may have been excited." The charges were laid by Chief Jack Irvine of the Pickering Police department, as a result of an ac- cident on the Rouge Hill Road, about 4 pm. on Sunday, July 27, when a truck driven by the accused crashed into the rear of a parked car owned by John Kosar, Toronto, resulting in about $250. damage to the car. Kosar testified that he and a friend had stopped just past the intersection to look for a street sign. when the crash occurred. After the crash, he got out of his car, but be- fore he could get the name of the accused, or his license number, Hum- mel had driven off. Kosar gave chase, and caught up with Hummel, at the construction camp.of MoCaf- irey and Burge, about a half mile away. y Casper Chornomaz, riding with Kosar, gave evidence that Hummel was driving fast, and he had jump- ed into a ditch to avoid being hit by the truck driven by Hummel, " Chief J. B. Irvine, who investigat- ed the accident stated that Kosar's car received a smashed trunk and rear window, as well as considerable damage to the righ rear side of the car. 7 ' In his own defence, Hummel stat ed that the visibility was poor be- cause it had been raining intermit- tantly, and he had his truck lights on. He also added that it was foggy, and he had not seen the car, until it was too late. In answer to evidence by Chief Irvine that his eyes were bloodshot, and his breath smelled of Aiquor, Hummel admitted taking a bottle of beer after the accident, and before the police arrived. Crown Attorney Hall, commenting on the admission of the accused about taking the bottle of beer, stat- ed "nobody but a low grade moron would 'take liquor after an accident and before the police arrived."
