Harmony (Continued from Page 3) had won In competitions with the rest of the Pack, and again when a whole week end had been spent together a little later. : Referring to the need of forming a scout troop. Chris stated that two boys were at the age for scouting and doubtless other boys would join when it became known such a troop would be formed. A warm wel. come was extended Mr. Hare, and he was wished every success as a leader of the new scout troop. Awards Presented Miss Linda Fairhart was the next speaker. She commenced her re. marks with a word of commenda- tion to Mr. and Mrs. Willoughby for their fine work. On behalf of the District Staff, Miss Fairhart told them to feel free to ask at any time for help, and it would be forth. coming. Cubs eligible for 1st year stars and proficiency badges were called to the front, and the presentation was made by Miss Fairhart, ex- plaining how sorry their Cubmaster was that he had been unable to get the stars, but that as soon as they could be obtained, they should have them. The following is a list of the cub's names: -- First Stars--Norm Ridgly, Sam Jackson, Don McKay, Bill Barlow, Ralph Myers, Hugh Smith, Jim Irv. ing, Neilson Greentree, Gord Ridge. ly, Fred Fountain, Victor Thomp.- son, Bob Barlow, Dale Neil, Charles Powers, Milt Black, Jim Allman. Badges--Freddie Fountain, Col. lections; Charles Powers, Garden. ers, Athletes and Collectiors; Neil. son Greentree, Gardener's and col- iector's; Ralph Myers, Gardener's and Collector's; Gordon Ridgely, Collector's; Don McKay, Collector's. Cubs Present Program At this point in the evening's ac. tivities, all hands were busily en. gaged in removing dishes, and tak. ing down tables, so that the Cubs could form into a circle. They op- ened their part of the program with the grand howl, then repaired to their lairs for inspiration. A demonstration of knot tying was put on, and a game "Jimping The Rope" entered into with much gusto, Miss Fairhart taught the Cubs a new game, which was, as she explained, an enactment of one of the jungle characters, Kaa the Python, found in Rudyard Kip- lings book. This new game which portrayed the reptiles attack on the chattering monkeys in the jungle, made a hit with the Cubs, and they'll soon be doing it again at their meetings. An interesting feature was the investiture of Kent Williams, who, after giving the Cub promise, was welcomed into the Pack with three loud cheers. As Akela placed the neckerchief around Kent's neck, he explained why it had two colors -- one light, and one dark. The light color stands for the bright thing in life, and should be kept to the right. The dark color represents the dark things in life. The Knot has a meaning too--this, to do a good turn every day. Short Skit Presented A short skit by Charles Powers, Milt Black and Norman Ridgely, though unrehearsed, brought a good Jaugh from the crowd. It depicted, in action, a"cowboy scene, the main scene being "hanging a horse." Ak. dear who member of Cedar Dale United Church. Besides her husband, to whom she was married here in 1900, Mrs, Crandall is survived by three daughters, Mrs. L. Pelow (Blanche) and Mrs. J. Moore (Violet) both of Oshawa and Mrs. B. Smith (Dor- othy) of Gananoque, and five sons, Russell D. and A. J. of Toronto; Clarence, Robert and Douglas of Oshawa. Also surviving are three sisters Mrs, W. Hopper of Toronto, Mrs.. E. Saint. of Cleveland, Ohio, and Mrs. A. Abraham, residing in the United States, and three bro- thers, Jack and Ernest of Osha- wa and Arthur of Detroit; 21 grandchildren and 4 great grand- children. The funeral will be held from the Lyke-McIntosh Funeral Home at 2 pm. on Monday, March 22, fol- lowed by interment in the Oshawa Union Cemetery. The services will be conducted by Rev. L. E. Fletch- er, minister of the Free Methodist Church. MRS. BESSIE BRAUND A resident of Oshawa for many years, Bessie Bond, beloved wife of the late Joseph Braund, died at the home of her daughter, Mrs. Robert Bamlette, in Calgary, on Friday, March 19. The deceased, who was in her 86th year, passed away sud- denly. A daughter of the late Mr. and Mrs. Samuel Bond, the deceased was born at Enfield on March 17, 1863. She was married 62 years ago to George Blair who predeceased her about 40 years ago. She later married Joseph Braund, who prede- ceased her some years ago. Mrs. Braund lived for the greater part of her life at 29 Brock Street East before going to Calgary in 1938 to live with her daughter. She was a very devoted member of King Street United Church and was ac- tive in the work of the women's or- ganizations of the church. The deceased is survived by four daughters, Mrs. C. Colville (Lila) of Hampton, Mrs. Robert Bamlette (Alma) of Calgary, Mrs. Earl Davi- son (Ruby) of Edmonton and Mrs. Walter Fair (Lulu) of Oshawa; and two sons Ernest and Raymond Blair of Oshawa. The funeral will be held in Cal- gary on Monday, March 22. Inter- ment will be made there. Damage Is Heavy (Continued from Page 1) | but conditions have been restored to normal after all.night work. Owners of the Collingwood saw. mill were forced to rip out their dam on the Underwood Canal to save their mill. Water was three feet deep In cellars of 250 homes near the Pret. ty River. At Owen Sound the Syd- enham river flowed over the top of the dam at the Owen Sound wool- len mills and sand bags were used to stop the flow, Rail service between London and Clinton was suspended last night after a Canadian National Rail. ways bridge was flooded. Passen. gers on buses travelling between Wingham and London were strand. ed near Clinton. The Indians reported found safe after it had been feared they were drowned in the ice.filled Thames were three Nichols brothers, Peter, 28, Charles, 20, and Cedric, 9. Swollen by heavy rains and the first. rush of the spring run-off, the ice-laden sterams raced so swiftly toward Lake Erie that their flood crests caught most communities along their banks unawares. Mud- dy waters rolled into 'dozems of houses and many, persons were ma. rooned until rescuers in rowboats reached them. 'Worst Flood in History Listowel, in North Perth County, had the worst flood in its 96.year history as the Maitland River sent five feet of water down business streets. The flood split the town in. to two sections linked only by a C.NR. bridge. The town hospital was reported without heat after electric motors in the basement be- came soaked. On the Listowel-Gowanstown railway line a washout forced in- definite suspension of service. Residents of lower Wingham left their homes after water lap- ped first.storey windows, A large section of a bridge was torn loose and carried awzy at Mitchell by the jce.and-debris.-laden upper tribu- tary of the Thames. Workmen pil- ed sandbags on the riverbanks as officials reported the stream more than two feet higher than at any time in recent years. . On the northern outskirts of Lon- don, the Thames flooded houses and barns. Main streets in Clinton and Exeter also were flooded. Grand River flood. waters lay several feet deep over low.lying sections of Grand Valley in Dufferin County. A mighty heave by a five-mile- long ice jam wrecked docks, pilings and a fish house at Port Maitland. A huge ice field which spilled from the mouth of the Maitland River at Goderich damaged harbor instal. lations and small boats. For the second time this week streams in the Toronto area rose. Etobicoke Creek, the Humber River and Highland Creek ran high and caused flood troubles. ela kept up a running commentary to keep all informed as to what was going on. Mrs, Jimmie Hare, in her usual good form, kept the audience in laughter with her "Albert And The Lion" and "The Return of Albert." On behalf of the Cubs, Neilson Greentree tendered a vote of thanks to the ladies for providing such a wonderful banquet. The singing of "God Save the King" brought to a.close a very suc. cesful and happy event in the life of the 12th Harmony Cub Pack. Dozen Injured (Continued from Page 1) ped away a section of the C.N.R. freight shed. A freakish gust knifed through a house occupied by Mr. and Mrs, Hyttenrauch who were out at the time. It levelled the dwelling but left adjacent buildings unscathed. Six restaurant customers went to hospital after two plate glass win- dows were blown in on them, Several sections of the city were left without power when hydro lines were torn down. Chicago, March 20 -- (AP) --The death toll mounted: to more than 50 today in the series of tornadoes and destructive gales which whip- ped across wide sections of the United States yesterday and ex- tended into southwestern Ontario. The wave of destruction in the |. United States left more than 300 injured. Hundreds were homeless. Property damage was in the mil« lions, The storms, striking on the last official day of winter, hit hardest in southwestern Illinois near St. Louis, where 41 were reported killed. The storm crest formed in Texas Thursday night and moved northeastward. Small tornadoes struck sections of Oklahoma and Kansas Thursday night but the twister swept with devastating force yesterday in southern Illinois. The tornadoes or damaging winds fanned across sections of Indiana, Kentucky, Ohio, Michigan, Kansas, Pennsylvania and New York, then moved northeastward into Canada. U.S. Is Confident (Continued from Page 1) Soviet Union joined with the United States In one of the rare instances of = American-Russian agreement within the YU. N. It was understood here that the American decision came from the White House and was of Cabinet level. The United States statement left a loophole for the possible reinstate ment of the scheme to split the Holy Land into Jewish and Arab countries by next Oct, 1. However, a high U.N. official said bluntly: | "This means the end of partition." Reperts and rumors that Wash- ington was abandoning partition have been current here for some time but in each instance the State Department has issued careful statements of denial. Warren R. Austin, chief United States delegate, presented the pro- posal at a private session of the big five powers and then to the council. The council was asked to call the Special Assembly Session, endorse the interim trusteeship under the U.N. Trusteeship Coun- cil and instruct the U.N, Palestine Commission to give up efforts to put through partition. The com- mission already has a small ad- vance party in the Holy Land. London, March 20 -- (AP) --The Colonial Office announced today Britain stands pat in its determin- ation to. surrender the Palestine Mandate May 15, British troops, the office said, will be pulled out not later than Aug. 1, regardless of the situation created by the withdrawal of Am- erican support for partition. The text of the Colonial Office statement: "The new situation created by the United States proposal is now being studied in London. Nothing in the mew situation affects the determination of His Majesty's Government to terminate the man- date not later than May 15 and withdraw .all our troops by Aug. 1." Little Damage (Continued from. Page 1) were later removed with the assist- ance of a plow mounted on a jeep, The most serious danger occurred at the John Street bridge where the ice jammed, at about 2:30 p.m. and forced the water to flow over the raised walk across the flats. The pathway was piled high with chunks of ice for a considerable distance west of the bridge. Water also flowed around the east end of the bridge. Although one woman was heard to express the hope the bridge would be carried away, it remained intact. The flats, north of the bridge weré entirely flooded before the jam broke about half an hour after it formed. Bridge Barricaded Barricades were placed at both east and west approaches to the John Street bridge by employees of the Board of Works and the pupils of Centre Street School, liv- ing west of the creek, were warned by their teachers.to use either King or Gibb Streets to return home, The volume of water coming down the creek was such that it could not be carried In its usual course south of Thomas Street with the result that it spread out over the marsh lands. Trucks and buses were still passing through about two feet of water, immediately north of the creek bridge, shortly before 4 pm. but shortly after that the bus service was temporarily suspended. Traffic was back to normal over the bridge when a member of The Times-Gazette staff visited the scene at 10 p.m. Return Of Trieste (Continued from Page 1) ed into Yugoslavia by procedures which do not respect the desire ex. pressed by. the powers to give an independent and democratic status to the territory." The joint statement reviewed the compromise agreement between the Western Powers and Russia more than a year ago by which the Free Territory of Trieste was created and then concluded: "The governtents of the United States, United Kingdom and France have therefore decided to recom. mend the return of the Free Terri. tory of Trieste to Italian sovereign. ty as the best solution to meet the democratic aspirations of the peo. ple and make possible the re.estab. ilshment of peace and stability in the area."

As a public service, The Star has supplied the articles to more than 20 other Canadian news. papers, which are publishing them concurrently. By DON CAMERON Windsor Star Staff Reporter How do Canada's Communists get that way? Are they really the resentful vic. tims of a heartless economic system that discriminates unfairly between the "haves".and the "have-nots," or are they congenital malcontents who would find fault with perfec: tion itself? Are they motivated by lofty ideal_ ism, by honest indignation against real or imagined injustices, or mere. ly by a cynical and selfish desire to seize and use incalculable wealth and power for their own satisfac. tion? Answers Are Contradictory The answers to these questions are many and contradictory. None is conclusive, because in the final analysis they must be reduced to terms of individuals, notwithstand- ing the Marxist.Leninist-Stalinist theory that all but a handful of hu. man beings are mindless masses to be regimented and ruled for their own good. Communists are rogues nad crim. inals. Communists are psychopath- ics with a compulsion toward viol- ence. Communists are cold, cynical schemers intent on using other men as dupes to achieve purely person. al ambitions. Communists are sincere, earnest people, too, who actually believe in their hearts that the extremes of violence and destruction to which they subscribe now are justifiable means to an end that will improve the lot of all mankind. This reporter talked with a good many of them before starting to write these articles. He asked them how they got that way, and some of their answers were interesting. A swart, skinny youth with knife. sharp feautres and a cauliflower ear gained in a Ward 5 street brawl Toronto said: mr was a poolroom bum when the neighborhood L.P.P. Club took an interest in me. I left home when 1 was 15 after a fight with my old man and worked for a bootlegger, delivering liquor, till the cops sent me away for a stretch, I was head- ed for a second stretch for gambling when one of the fellows at the club sent around a lawyer to bail me out and get the charge dismissed. System Gets the Blame "1'd never paid much attention to all this talk about Communists and capitalists, because I figured it was my own fault if I didn't get ahead. But this Jawyer proved it was the system, not me, that was haywire, and 1 couldn't ever beat it by knuckling down to the bosses. "Maybe you dont like Commun. ists, since ¥ou make your living by playing the capitalists' game, but you can't deny our system needs plenty of changing. Well, we're go- ing to change it, and I'm helping. I never used to hold a job more than a few weeks, but now I'm an assistant foreman in a factory where I've been for two years. I've done a lot of good on the side, 'or. ganizing the men in my depart. ment, making them see where their real interests lie. "rm not a hig shot and I never will be. But I've got a goal in life, mister, and I feel pretty good about it. I'll never be a bum again. We Reds are going to be on top of the world pretty soon, instead of at the bottom of the heap, and if you were smagt you'd be joining up with us while you've got the chance." A blond giant who worked under. ground in a gold mine near Kirk. land Lake gave. his answer with clear-eyed anger: "My father got killed on a job like mine when I was a kid. One of my sisters died of tuberculosis be. cause there wasn't enough money to buy the food that would have kept her healthy. I went to work when I was 12, at a man's job, to help out. Wants Family Security "Now I've got three kids of my own, and I want to be sure they never go through what I had to go through. Sure, I know about un- employment - insurance, pensions and all the benefits the government is talking about. But it's not nearly enough for security--and when an. other depression comes, who'll pay the taxes to keep it up? I'm will. ing to stand on my own feet and look out for my wife and kids as long as there's a job for me and I'm able to handle it--but look what happened to my father. "That's why I figure the Com. munists are the only ones in the world today who know both what they want and how to get it. I'm with them a hundred percent and the bosses can argue and offer bribes till Doomsday without chang. ing my mind. They're the same bosses who let my mother and my brothers and sisters go hungry after my father lost his life digging their gold for them, and believe me I won't shed any tears when the re. volution puts them in their places." A poet and novelist who had achieved something very like fame 20 years ago, only to drink himself into the gutter--a man this reporter last saw being hustled into a patrol wagon in New York's Greenwich Village in the midst of the depres. sion for taking part in a Red "hunger march" -- had a different kind of answer: "Remember when I was getting kicked out of every place and the newspapers were making nasty jokes about my meteoric progress from writing filth to wallowing in it? The only ones who stuck with me then were friends. They kept me from starv. ing and eventually they got me off the booze altogether, They saved my life, Wants to See World Wrecked "I happen to believe in Commun. ism, but even if I 'didn't I'd stick with it and work for it because I'm sick of the kind of world that fawns | my Communist on a man when he's riding high and spits on him when he's down. I'd like to see it wrecked even if f nothing would ever grow out of the ruins. As it is, I think a better world will grow out of the ruihs, and I'm trying to hurry it up. My stuff doesn't make the money it used to, since the capitalists don't care for it, but it's being read where some day it will count for a lot." Here were three very different men-- the poolroom hanger.on, the independent toller and the brilliant but unstable intellectual--who hat. ed and had cause to hate the pre. vailing system for what it had done to them. And since all men are not born strong and purposeful, the fact that two of them largely brought about their own troubles is beside the point. Webster's New International Dic- tionary defines Democracy as: "The principle or system of gov- ernment by the people. Belief in or practice of social equality; disregard for' social barriers, as of class; ab. sence of snobbery." The : apostles of Red revolution contrast the real state of affairs with the ideal, telling half_truths, choosing the darkest pigments for their canvas. There is just enough basis for their most violent slanders of Canadian democracy to carry weight with those who are too bit. ter, too hasty or too careless to no- tice that the brighter colors are left out deliberately. Communism, as it exists in the world today, even so has vastly less to recommend it. Webster, again, describes it ideologically as: "Any theory or system of social organi- zation involving common ownership of the agents of production of the products of industry." Iron Curtain Hides Truth No intelligent or thoughtful per. son can believe the boasts of the Stalinist fifth columnists about the ogress purportedly achieved in the Soviet Union under miracles of Communism. More eloquent than their most resounding. oratory is the silent, stubborn fact of. the iron curtain which prevents the rest of the world from looking into Russia and the people of Russia from viewing the rest of the world. Our only depend. able means of knowing what goes on behind that curtain is read the official Soviet pnt, iid the lines. While guarding carefully against any uncensored world news enter. ing the USS.R., the rulers of Rus- sia tell the people in their news. papers and by radio of horrible want and suffering in all the na. tions, of wholesale disease and starvation, of cataclysmic economic crashes, of disasters of every des. cription. Much of this "news" is manufactured from whole cloth; the rest is based on shaky factual foundations distorted and colored for the purpose. 'That purpose can only be to con. vince the regimented slave-peoples of Russia and her satellite states that however hard their lot, the lot of people outside the sacred barriers of Russia is hideously worse, It permits of no conclusion other than that, under the Com. munist tyranny, Russia is in a far sorrier state than its overlords can afford to admit, Same Tactics Planned Here Absolute control of the press, of education, of speech and entertain. ment is an important part of the announced Communist program for Canada when the last vestige of her democracy has been wiped out. For knowledge has always been the worst 'enemy of the great dictator. ships of history, whereas an ignar. ant or a deceived people has always been helpless. Ignorance is one of the strongest allies of Red agitators in Canada, too. Communism supplies tailor- made opinions and slogans to those who are unable to formulate their own thoughts and who, consequent. ly, find themselves bewildered a good deal of the time. Says the president of a Windsor local union who has fought hard against persistent Red infiltration: "I am in contact with admitted Communists every day, some of them well-educated, some who are barely able to write their names. | It's easy to see that all of them get their opinions from higher up. I'll go from one end of the shop to the other, asking them questions --which they are perfectly willing to answer--and every one of them, literate or illiterate, will repeat al. most word for word the same re: plies. It's uncanny." That's another reason why so many people who seem to be do- ing well enough materially under our system of "bourgeois capital. ism" become Communists, All men, consciously or unconsciously, feel the need for a philosophy that will give meaning to life. The Com. munists supply that need with ar. guments sq plausible that the un. thinking are convinced before they know .it. Communist "Religion" The Communists go further. In these days when religious faith in many quarters is weaker than it ever has been since the turn of the century, they supply all the trap- pings of religion to fill the vacuum that exists in thousands of minds and hearts. Religious patterns and beliefs have been replaced with counter- patterns and counterbeliefs. Martin Ebon, in his new and auth. oritdtive book "World Communism Today," puts it: "Even outwardly, the resemblance between Communism and tradition. al religious practices is striking. There are s-riptures that the initi. 346 Simcoe 8. --- Phone 716 20 years experience in farm stock and household effects, Your business solicited. No' hierarchy, and "ere are mission. aries. There is excommunication for heresy. There is public confession of sin, nearly identical with self- castization at revival meetings. There is a centre of strength which inspires and ¢smands devotion. And there is final salvation that will reward the sacrifices of the pre- sent. "Like any transcendent religious faith, Communisnr helps to heal-- outwardly at least--the soul pains of human insecurity. It provides its adherents with a Great Purpose. It gives their lives a meaning, It re. veals a path for the lost or bewild. ered. It has a answer to every ques. tion. It seeks to destroy all doubt and demands full allegiance. The burden of individual decision does not strain the shoulders of its fol- lowers." In a sense that is an indictntent of the Church as scathing as Karl Marx's characterization of religion as "the opium of the people." Some. where, somehow, the Church -- which once kept faith alight in all the world--has failed miserably, to let the rival destructive faith of Communism gain such influence as it wields today. And all of Communism is a stern indictment of the guardians of our democracy, of every man and wo. man who holds democracy and lib- erty dear--and who forgot to watch over it while predatory rival ideol. ogies prowled the world and devour- ed the freedoms of other peoples. When all the questions about the why and how and what of Com. munism have been asked, and all the various answers found, one other far more vital question will remain: Is democracy doomed? Monday -- The Cure of Com. munism. Both Sides Reject (Continued from Page 1) donment of partition. Secretary- General Abdel Rahman Azzam Pasha of the Arab League.said the United States action was "wonder- 'm afraid the Zionists will lose their heads. They will fight. If the Jews fight, we will accept the chal- lenge." A source in the Jewish Army Ha- gana sald of the United States stand: "This in no way changes our plans. We must fight on to es- tablish and hold Jewish sovereignty in \whatever parts of Palestine we can," The temporary draft constitution referred to the partition decision, the U.N. implementation -commis- sion and economic union with the proposed neighboring Arab state. Most Jewish leaders were in all- Jewish Tel Aviv to the north and could not be reached from Jerusa- lem because of war-disrupted tele- phone communications. Meanwhile, Jews lashed at Arab strong points in the Jerusalem sub- urb of Katamon. Two explosions After nearly a whole night of fighting between. Jewish and Arab suburbs on Jerusalem's south side, the attack took on big propor- tions. Sappers moved in to blast an Arab house already damaged by bombing and another the Jews called a sniper's nest. Super Market (Continued from Page 1) tending over many years, has been chosen to be our manager of this Super Market", said Mr. Hendricks who himself has been with the company for many years. A member of the staff of the Do- minion Stores Limited since 1928, Mr. McCarl has been associated with Dominion Stores in Colling- wood, Uxbridge, Sudbury, Chap- leau and Capreol, as both manager and supervisor. His ability to please discriminating shoppers has been demonstrated time anc time again. It is with this happy quality, and years of valuable experience, that Mr. McCarl comes to Oshawa for Dominion Stores. Mr. and Mrs. McCarl, both keen- ly interested in service work and civic affairs, will no doubt be valu- able additions to the community. Mr. McCarl has purchased a home on Cadillac Avenue where he and his wife will reside with their three-year-old son, Terry. Arrangements were completed with The Times-Gazette to fea- ture the Market values in the Osh- awa new Dominion Super Market every week and the public will be asked to look forward to the open- ing which will take place on March 30, and thereafter every week for the Dominion Store advertisement.

Harry Rigg, of the Oshawa Boy Scout Local Association, in em- phasizing the importance of badge work, at the annual Third Oshawa Boy Scout Group's Father and Son banquet, Gem Samac, last night, Continuing, esident Rigg spoke highly of the Third, both past and present, and urged them to higher Scouting proficiency. Referring to the campsite, Mr. Rigg called it "the finest campsite on the North American Continent" and called upon the boys and their leaders to use its facilities to the full. In mentioning the various facili- ties of the camp devoted to the pur- suance of good Scouting in Oshawa and district, Mr. Rigg referred to the fact that the camp warden was himself a member of the Third Oshawa, while his wife was "more than interested -in Cubbing." He added that the presence .of Mr, and Mrs, Clyde Saunders would promote good Scouting and Cubbing in the camp, Mr. Rigg praised highly the work done by the group committee, both in their own group, the third, and also in the extensive work of the local association. He urged the fathers to take an active interest in their boys by attending more meetings throughout the year, Also on the agenda as speaker of the evening was Assistant District Commissioner Edward Alker, who spoke briefly to the Scouts of the Third group. Charging that a Troop is only as good as its poorest boy, he urged the Scouts of the Third Troop to back their leaders to the full, and thus to ensure the Third becoming "tops in Oshawa Scouting."
