B. Jolliffe provincial leader, described Premier Drew's election appeal as "the stangest ever put forward by a politician in Canada." In an address prepared for deliv- ery to a public meeting sponsored by Essex County C.C.F. associations, he said the Progressive Conservative appeal had only two important points--"A $25,000,000 surplus and a $600,000,000 mortgage." "We of the C.C.F. advocate a pro- gram of planned expansion," Mr. Jolliffe said. "We know of the great productive potentialities of. Ontario and the need for wellsplanned de- velopment. But we don't believe that any government cam -tax ils way into prosperity in the hit-and- miss manner of the Tories." "Theusands more immigrants are being invited to Ontario by a gov- ernment which makes no provision for new housing and which knows '--or ought to know--that industry won't have enough (hydro-electric) power in winter to employ all these people--or even the people who are here now." Brooklin Man Fined For Selling Inferior Potatoes W. Tripp of Brooklyn, pleaded guilty to a charge of selling pota- toes below the minimum grade and innocent to another charge of over- facing--preparing stock so that the face or shown surface falsely re- presents the contents. He was fined a total of $54 on both counts by Ma- gistrate Frank S. Bbbs in police court here today. E. Walton, fruit and vegetable in- grector for the Department of Agri- culture, testified he had warned Tripp on February 23 to be more careful with his produce but on March 9 when some of accused' pot- atoes were inspected, they were found below grade, The larger pot- atoes were in the top of the bag hiding smaller, scabbier ones under- neath. Accused told the court they were mixed through and he sold them as No. 2.gradé at $250 per bag. He said customers had bought potatoes from him for five years and he had ("never tried to beat them yet." *; "Housewives are entitled to pro- tection," said Crown Attorney Alex C. Hall when Mr. Walton revealed {that the market price for a bag of No. 1 grade potatoes is $2.50. His Worship pointed out the un- fairness of dealers who "have the rpportunity to go around with their produce and don't know enough to be honest about it."

Escapist Music Tops Hit Parade Of German Songs By ALLAN DREYFUSS Frankfurt -- (Reuters) -- Ger- mans turning from the bellicose wartime favorites such as "We are Sailing Against England," have now adopted popular music sug- gesting escape to tropical islands and beaches where the calory is un- known and the housing problem re- volves about a palm-thatched hut. {| Among the top five current fav- | orites in dance music and popular ballads are songs with such titles as "Nights m Shanghai," "Come With Me to Tahiti," and "The Fishermen of Capri." Eberhard Bethsold, composer of the current German dance hits "Gisellm" and "Destiny," declares, however, that in spite of this tend- ency to musical escapism, German songwriters have never been sad- dled with the "promise" * tunes heard in Britain and the United States. Whereas many Anglo-American dance composers write tunes in which an impatient lover promises his sweetheart material items ranging from a Rolls Royce auto to a diamond necklace, German writers, he says, traditionally steer clear of all such practical features, preferring a simple abstract love. Because of this tradition and the unhappy plight of most of Ger- many today, no lyricist would even consider writing a song which sug- gests food; luxury clothing or housing. One of the most interesting "es- sape songs," which has achieved a considerable vogue in post-war Germany, written by Gunther Forbid Dreaming." This dreamy tune is regarded by many as a musical expression of oppositio™ to years of regimentation and strict regulation in which the word "ver- boten" (forbidden) seemed synony- mous with everything desirable. Another optimistically - worded German dance favorite is called 'The World is Getting More Beau- tiful All the Time," while a catchy number entitled "Keep Smiling" reflects the only unrationed method in Germany for combatting gloom. _Bethsold says that the produc- tion of German dance music was greatly hampered by a Hitler order Which forbade public dancing from the time of the invasion of Rus- sia to the end of the war. Because of this ban, and because of the dampened spirits of most Germans little or no popular music was writ- en. Since the end of hostilities, how- ever, hundreds of young would-be German composers have been at- tempting to fill this gap in song production with a spate of tunes attempting to take the listener's Imagination as far from Germany as possible, German dance m have been greatly influenced by American "jive" music. German tunes which bear titles such as Swing It Christopher Columbus" and "Hello Baby" are evidence of the overthrow of another Hitler order forbidding the use of Ameri- can titles for German music. The occupation has also found the post-war popular German music composer guilty of a "crime" as- sociated with American composers working in New York's "Tin Pan Alley." . Long repulsed by the idea of Jeating ihe Works of classical omposers in any other atmosphere than that of the concert hall, vi war German tunesmiths have fin. ally yielded to the pressure of the times and begun stealing themes from classical symphonies and con- certos to turn them into the idiom of the dance hall. But the first favorites of Ger- man dancers are still old-fashion- ed waltzes and Spanish-style tang- os, usic composers 'GAVE RHODES A HAIRCUT Colchester, Essex, England-- (CP) --Charles Hazell, 86, who died here, claimed to be Britain's oldest prac- tising hairdresser.

Strike Vote At Chrysler Detroit, April 20--(AP)--Amid reports of .a drastic slash in the union demand, the United Autorho- bile Workers (CIO. executive board met today to give its ap- proval to a strike by 75,000 Chrys- ler Corporation employees. The board's approval was the last remaining union barrier in the way of a "sanctioned" walkout. All legal requirements have been met but no strike date has been set.

Many miners walked | out yesterday after the contempt | finding. There were threats of a full-| fledged walkout in the soft coal | mines if Lewis should be sent to jail. | |" Under cviil contempt, it would |be possible to impose a fine that |increased with each day the mines | | were idle; a fine of $5,000 a day, for | | instance, for each day the miners | stayed out. | Morison reminded Goldsborough that Lewis and the UMW. were | before him today as second offend- | lers. He recalled the conviction of | | both Lewis and the UM.W. in 1946 | |for contempt under similar circum- | stances. | Morison said that the defendanis | (Lewis and the UMW. "have chosen to set themselves above the procedures of law and to disregard | entirely a law of the United States and the mandate of this court is- sued pursuant to that law." Lewis and the union had "wilful- | ly failed" to obey the April 3 court order, Says Fines Heavy When Morison concluded, Welly K. Hopkins, the union's lawyer, told the judge such fines as the government suggested would inflict "grievous injuries" on the miners. The penalties asked for "were without parallel." Speaking of the miners, Hopkins said "I say to the government they are not second-rate citizens. "Thére's no caste system of un- touchables--as yet." Lewis arrived eight minutes be- fore the court's convening hour, He walked in, turned and looked over the spectators crowding the court room. Then he sat down, There was the faintest suggestion of a smile on Lewis' face. Hopkins said the government harped repeatedly on the letter Lewis sent the mine operators Feb. 2 telling them the union reserved the right to take "independent action" because there had been no agreement on miners' pensions. 'He asked: : | "Why does the government bear down so heavily on the message of | Feb. 2, addressed not to the union | but to the operators and made pub- | lic by the operators?" | "The right of free speech existed | on Feb, 2, The right of free speech existed on March 12" (March 12] was the date when Lewis messaged the miners their contract was "dis- honored.") Lewis on April 3 sent a letter to the membership saying they were independent agents and free to contafue idle. No strike had been called, Lewis reminded the 400,000 soft coal miners, | Hopkins remarked "it was strange" that the government had | failed to mention Lewis' April 3 letters - VICTORIA'S CHOICE Ottawa was chosen to be the capi. tal of Canada in 1858 by Queen Vic. toria, Its original name was Bytown. --1 this fall.

G. Macdonald of Nia- gara Falls, Ont., today told the an- nual comference of the Ontario In- dustrial Accident Prevention Asso- ciations. . "Iie unsafe acts of persons now account for nearly 90 per cent of 'all industrial accidents," he said in an address prevared for delivery to the meeting, now in its second day. "Factors of vision, hearing, per- cppiion, muscular speed, sense of rhythm required for some machines can be measured and the right man can be fitted in tae right job. "But the 'unteachables' --~ the chronic day-dreamer, the preoccu- pied the emotionally upset--are all accident-prone and are thie human factors 'that are the crux of 'the problem. Polls show that more than 50 per cent of workers dislike their jobs." The organization, which yester= day elected L. H. Ingram of Peter- borough president, also heard W. A. Oshourne of Galt speak on accident reduction and Dr. C. D. Russell of Oshawa link .poor diets and social maladjustments with industrial ac= cidents. Mr, Osbourne said that at the plant of Babcock-Wilcox and Gold- ie-McCullocfy, Ltd. of which he is vice-president and general mana- ger, 1,550 accidents were reported to the first-aid department in 1947 and only 90, or about six per cent, were serious enough to require me- dical aid and be reported to the Workmen's Compensation Board of Ontario. "That is prchably representative of other industries," he added. Dr. Russell, plant doctor at Du=- plate (Canada) Ltd. said lack of interest in proper diets and social maladjustment often caused acci- dents. "The efficiency of the worker de- pends upon his social, mental and physical wellbeing. Even a proper diet for an overweight employee or interest in an adolescent with acne may play a part in the improved state of mind that will be reflected in a lower accident tendency."
