Campbell, C.B.E,, the automobile industry has lost one of its 'outstanding figures. It might be said that Mr. Campbell grew up in the industry, although perhaps better expressed to say that the industry grew=up around him, as it has done 'around others who have shared in the wonderful progress in motor car development and production during the past forty or fifty years. Joining the Ford Motor Co. of Canada at the age of 23, Mr. Campbell was then its only bookkeeper. In that year, 19065, a staff of 50 turned out 117 automobiles. Twenty-one years later, Mr. Campbell, then vice-president and treasurer, 'saw 116,000 cars produced in the Canadian plant. But the greatest record of production was achieved during the war when, under Mr, Campbell's leadership, the Ford of Canada produced nearly 400,000 units of all kinds as that company's contribution of motorized equipment, which playad so impor- tant a part in the success of our fighting forces overseas. Mr. Campbell was not only a great industrialist but also a valued civic leader, serving for many years as chairman of the Border Citizens' Service Committee. He also gave active suppport to such worthy organizations as the Y.M.C.A.,, Y.W.C.A., Boy Scouts, Salvation Army and Vic- torian Order of Nurses. He was chairman of the board which directed Canada's war output, prior to the 'organiza- tion of the Department of Munitions and Supplies, and for this and other valued services he was included in .he King's honors list July 1st, 1946, being made a Commander of the British Empire. di : The automobile industry has produced many are men, or at least has given opportunity for the unfolding.of their , capabilities, and Mr. Campbell will be remembered as one of those who made a very great contribution toward the ' development of the industry here in Canada. Irresponsible Youth The spectacle of some 44 young men leaving their jobs as lifeguards on Toronto beaches is not a very encouraging |, one. Many of these young men are said to be youths in their late teens, high school and college boys, who applied for and accepted this type of summer employment under the conditions of a contract which they signed voluntarily. One clause of this contract is as follows: "I agree that, in view of the nature of the work on public beaches and the necessity that there be no interrup- tion in the service and the supervision of the beaches, I will not myself go on strike at any time during the course of my employment. , , ." Nothing could be plainer or more clearly understood and the reason for such a condition of employment is perfectly obvious. When interests clash, as they sometimes do, then the lesser should be subordinated to the greater. And surely no one willl argue that the welfare and safety of thousands of Toronto citizens, Including many little chil- dren, is many times greater than the dissatisfaction of a few young men who have been persuaded that they have ) made a bad bargain. The question is not a financial one, It is one of funda- mental morality. The surprising thing is that these mis- guided youths are so lacking in common sense that they cannot see the damage they are doing to their own good names and the good names of their families. The stigma they have brought upon themselves is likely to do them much greater harm in years to come than any ternipora ai they may obtain, Pye Crude Swindlers Every little while a report is published of how an innocent person is flim-flammed out of a considerable sum of money by a couple of slick strangers. The scheme is much the same in every case and it is a wonder that adult persons, who presumably read newspapers, guard against such actually crude tricksters. 'The latest report comes from Toronto and tells of a Fort Erie man who fell in with a stranger who seemed friendly. Almost immediately another man joined them. The latter pretended not to know Confidence Man No. 1 although actually they were partners in the game of swindling. Together they inveigled the Fort Erie man into "betting that he could produce more money than one of them could. Failing to have enough in his pocket he went to a Toronto bank and got the manager to telephone Fort Erie to verify his account and then cash a cheque for him for $900. He gave this amount to one of his new "friends" to count and on the strength of this showing of wealth he Was supposed to win a bet of twenty dollars. With the $900 in their hands the two men made off and left the Fort Erie man to report the matter to the Toronto police, who are , still looking for the swihdlers. We have read at least a half dozen similar stories, and it leaves one amazed how people can be so gullible, ; The 'struction on this continent, are not on their. By HAROLD DINGMAN Ottawa Correspondent Ottawa, Aug. 13--If any innocent follower of the Labor Progressive Party doubts that orders come from the 3rd Internationale, let him study the prima facie case of de- liberate sabotage recently uncover- ed in the US. And while the LIP crowd are whimpering about democracy, let them examine the contempt their bosses have for the ballot box. It will help them to understand that they are part of a 5th col- umn and that their nominal lead- er, Tim Buck, is merely an aging footboy. The expose goes back to 1941 when Germany and Russia had a non-aggression pact, It demon- strates clearly how blind this continent is to the dangers from within, The Allis-Chambers plant at Milwaukee had a $45 million con- tract to build destroyers and cruis- ers for American defence. The Communist party singled out the plant as a focal point for opera- tions and the union which be- came the stooge and instrument of sabotage was the CIO-United Au- tomobile workers. The union' officers were Harold Christoffel" and™ ert Buse. They and their activi- ties were investigated by the House Labor Committee (The Canadian Parliament has a similar committee which is too genteel for such in- vestigations) and part of their re- port was so packed with dynamite it was turned over to the Depart- ment of Justice for action. These two were responsible, in part at least, for a 76-day strike at the plant, which paralyzed Ameri- can defetice production. Here's what the committee reported: "Your committee is forced to speculate as to what extent the strike in 1941 at Allis-Chambers contributed to the tragedy of Pearl Harbor and other naval reverses in World War II. Obviously it is im- possible to estimate in dollars and cents or American lives the full ex- tent of the damage done at this plant to national security by a few revolutionary Communist = Labor Leaders." "At the direction of the Com- munist party and for the purpose of carrying out its program, Harry Christoffel called a 76-day strike at the Allis-Chambers plant. In doing this he used over 2,000 fraudulent ballots and betrayed his country, his employer and his fellow work- ers." Nice, isn't it, to think that in the midst of war the "democratic" La- Progressive Party will accept and obey orders from abroad to sabotage our plants? If we have another war we'll have to fight it at home as well as abroad. It will be a shooting war at home, too. There'll be blood in the streets. Let no one doubt that the mem- bers of the Labor Progressive Party are the saboteurs of tomorrow. There is nothing so thoroughly in- ternational as unism; it crosses all international boundar- les, finds no obstacles in languages or religion, Members of the Labor Progress- ive Labor Party are the handmaids of the old Communist gang; the gang is the subservient tool of the Internationale; the Internationale takes its directions from the Polit- buro in Moscow. The Politburo is made up of 14 members -- the most powerful 14 in the world. The Labor Progressive Party of Canada would destroy the capital- ist democracy we know and substi- tute a caste system of Russia. The top Communists in Canada today aspire to become the 14 most pow- erful men in Canada after the de- struction of democracy. And if the 3rd Internationale needs a war to bring about that de- then we'll have war. The capitalist de- mocracy will be blamed, even by our Socialists who are so determin- ed to grab control of all the re- sources of the country. From Frying Pan to Coffee Pot Las NV --Russell in the Los Angeles Times Time for Decision By GEORGE W. JAMES + The Canadian Statesman, Bowmanville, Ont. r ! ARTICLE 18 Continuing the debate on immi. gration, John Bracken, leader of the official opposition, brought the question down to the simple pro- position of whether Canada should continue exporting food on credit to millions abroad or adopt a policy of bringing in acceptable immi- grants to expand production and markets at home. For at present three Canadians out of every eight Jepend on world trade for a liveli- Trade and Humanity We are a thinly populated land, rich in resources and food produc- tion possibilities, while thickly popu- lated lands outside are short of food. We are trying to feed a hungry world outside and doing practically nothing to welcome fine, potential citizens to our shores and the gov- ernment seems fearful of taking a lead in this matter. It is not only a matter of trade but of humanity. National Policy Mr. Bracken went on: "What we need is a national policy setting a goal for steady admission of selected people in a way not to conflict with domestic employment. We thus would not be so dependent on out- side markets and would better serve both ourselves and the outside world," He urged the government without delay to accept the princi- ple as stated and work out a detail- ed policy. Stin Other speakers of the official op- position pointed out other impor- tant factors in this question before Prime Minister King made his carefully worded statement, It was shown that in the two years follow- ing war the Canadian government was falling away behind other countries in the matter of selecting immigrants from Britain and Eir- ope. In fact we are practically standing still while other common- ewalth countries and South Amer- ica are extremely active. Government Policy Announcing the government's im- migration policy on May 1, 1946, Prime Minister King agreed with the Bracken thesis and suggested a two-phase approach to the ques- tion: (a) a short term plan to bring in as many as can be absorbed im- mediately, (b) a longterm plan on a selective basis. But he set no figure in either case. Even immediate en- try was limited to wives and rela- tives and this taxed the limited in- spection service overseas. Lack Shipping Space Mr. King declared that lack of shipping space was the continuing handicap in effecting his policy. So the whole matter was left at that for the time being. It was poor consola- tion for Canadian farmers faced with the most serious labor shortage in history and tens of thousands overseas anxious to come out here to work on the land, It will be told later how industry is entering into immigration in the absence of gov. ernment action. Gain For Others Lack of shipping was challenged by the opposition. It was pointed out that other dominions, particularly Australia, were chartering whole ships and are right now getting the cream of the immigrants in Britain and Europe. It is beginning to ap- pear that this excuse of lack of ship- ping is just another instance of gov- ernment apathy. So it appears to overworked farmers almost at the limit of their physical endurance. The story will be continued next week. ATLANTIC CITY 0 A Overlooking Bond Famed for hospitality, delicious food.

PETERS We took a trip out to Borden last Sunday see ON ers were ong. S my- Boing al: up to Borden through the courtesy of Mr, and Mrs, C. French, The camp this year is re- portedly the best they have ever had. It is possible to obtain a pass, and that is given a great boost to the morale of the cadets. They man- age to get into Barrie and out to Wasaga occasionally. The boys are billeted in tents, which have electric lights and wooden floors. We heard that the meals were on the up and up this year but if Sun- day's supper was an example, I dont' see any change from '45. There are about 180 cadets sta- tioned at Borden during this camp. A new system is in operation this year. Instead of a whole squadron bunking together as in previous years the cadets are broken up with two boys from each squadron bunk- ing together. This has improved the companionship between squadrons immensely. The cadets have their own can- teen and lounge in what used to be the writing room. Three Oshawa boys have pitched up a little con- coction on the piano with a catchy tune to which two other cadets are trying to fit words. If this master- piece matures, you can be sure it will appear in O.C.S. news. Two weeks ago come Saturday, Sgt. Shortt flew to Borden with Ed. Knox, and he hopes to go up again this week-end, so camp life can't be too hard this year. S/L L. Beal left his charges last Sunday after being with them for a week, but he is returning Friday night to come home with them on Saturday. The cadets will arrived in Oshawa at 5:45 p.m., Saturday, Aug- ust 16. The annual cadet camp dance will be held at Borden on hAugust 15. The main complaint that the fel- DAILY TIMES-GAZETTE EDITORIAL PAGE lows have is that they are not re- ceiving enough mail. They may only be away two weeks, but letters are always more than welcome, p-rii- cularly from the girl friend. It is too late to do much about the situation now, but keep it in mind for next year. The six cadets on the flying course will write their exams on Meteoro- logy, Navigation, and Airmanship, on Thursday. Congratulations to Cpl. R. Bishop who soloed last week. It is about time to start reminding the cadets that the cadets will par- ade at the airport on Tuesday, Sept- ember 2. This is a good time to say that the use of the word refers to a meeting and not march as some people seem to The O.C.F.C. will hold { airshow on September 185, this is an event you will be attend. Sorry I am late this week, but at least I did get in this week. If you don't see me Tuesday, look fur me Wednesday. eo A Bit of Verse | THE DANCING LEAVES Like gresn-gold coins they shine and All dancing in the sun, The with, Syeet, swagg'ring, swelt'ring They welcome, one by one, How gay and carefree they appear, Dancing--when the storm's so near!
