A a By veanoTHe Zod ane TERETE Ah: yaw THURSPAY, OCTOBER 14, - 1948 THE DAILY TIMES-GAZETTE PAGE THREE No Guarantee Power Quotas Will Not Be & ° Carriers Retain Happy Memories Of Ottawa Trip Tired but supremely happy after three days of thrilling experiences on their trip to Ottawa, 60 carrier boys and girls of The Times-Gazette arrived back in Oshawa at nine o'clock last night, bubbling over with enthusiasm for all that they had seen and done during their tour of the capital city of Canada. Many parents and friends were on hand at \ the office of The Times-Gazette when the two deluxe buses carrying the party pulled up in front of the office, with 60 youthful voices chanting The Times-Gazette yell which had been used throughout the trip: "What d'ya bet, What d'ya bet, We're the carriers of The Times- Gazette. We're out for fun; We'll have some now, Because we're all from OSHAWA. OSHAWA - OSHAWA - OSHAWA OSHAWA." As the 60 excited boys and girls descended from the buses to be claimed by smiling parents, the air resounded with their comments on the trip. All of them agreed that the 'trip and their experiences had far exceeded their fondest hopes and expectations, It is safe to say that for many a long day they will be talking about the things that happened in Ottawa. Luncheon Climax of Tri The climax of the tour of Ottawa was reached at noon yesterday, when amidst the sumptuous sur- roundings of the Chateau Laurier, the members of the party were guests of Mayor Frank N. McCal- lum of Oshawa at luncheon. This generous gesture of goodwill was greatly appreciated by the boys and girls, who were all introduced per- sonally to the mayor of their home city. The group did full justice to a delicious meal. Luncheon over, Controller Fenwick McRae of Ot- tawa on behalf of the mayor and city council, welcomed The Times- Gazette party to the capital, and in a brief speech, stressed the contri- bution made by the work of carriers to their own future welfare and to Canada as a whole. Mayor McCallum also addressed the group briefly, praising the edu- cational value of the trip-and com- plimenting The Times-Gpzette on its enterprise in arranging this outing for its carriers. On behalf of the whole party, Victor Henkel- man expressed to Mayor McCallum at vote of thanks for his generous hospitality. The hearty applause which followed left no doubt as to the appreciation of the boys and girls. Party Visits Paper Mill In the morning, the party visited the E. B. Eddy newsprint mill at Hull, Quebec. There they saw the entire process of newsprint manu- facture, from the pulping of the logs, the transformation of the mixture of pulp, sulphite and water by wringing, rolling and drying, down to the production of the fin- ished rolls of newsprint wrapped, labelled and ready for the waiting freight car. The rest of the morning was spent in a tour of the Ottawa busi- ness section, where the young people busied themselves buying presents and souvenirs for mother and dad. The Woolworth store did a roaring business, and the carriers returned to the Lord Elgin Hotel laden with gadgets of all kinds. Of course the trip "ad its cas- ualties. The advice of a doctor was needed for David Andrews' upset |i stomach, and Don Wagar did not enjoy very much of the program until he paid a visit to a dentist who relieved his pains. Don Houl- den was able to cope with other minor ailments. Home by Highway No. 7 After the luncheon at the Chat- eau Laurier, the party returned to the Lord Elgin Hotel and regret- fully started packing up for the trip home. At three o'clock the buses pulled away from the hotel on the journey te Oshawa. For variety, the homeward trip was made via High- way No. 7, through Carleton Place, Madoc and Peterborough. The scenery along the route was more rugged than that seen along High- way No. 2 and little lakes were seen at every turn of the road. Just as on the trip out, rain fell steadily and the sun was hidden, except for a. short time when a magnificent rainbow arched the sky. This in no way dampened the spirits of the boys and girls, whose song rang through the buses and indicated that, wonderful as their visit to Ottawa had been, they were happy to be going home. One stop was made on the way, at a wayside lunch room, where the party thor- oughly enjoyed the excellent lunches which had been prepared by the Central Experimental Farm at Ot- tawa. One feature, which helped great- ly in making the trip a success, was the excellence and comfort of the buses in which the trip was made. These were supplied by the De Nure Bus Lines of Port Perry and the Hoskin Coach Lines of Orillia, and were driven by F. De Nure and W. Hoskin in person. The courtesy and consideration of the drivers and the comfortable riding qualities of the two de luxe buses which were supplied, added greatly to the boys' and girls' en- joyment of tHe trip. ' Now the wonderful outing is over, but it will not quickly be forgotten by the 60 carrier boys and girls who were fortunate enough to. win it, and who felt more than repaid for the efforts they made to qualify for it by securing their quota of new subscribers for The Times-Gazette. BODY FOUND IN CANAL Peterborough, Oct. 14 -- (CP)-- The body of 34-year-old Arthur Ellis of Peterborough was found floating in the Trent Canal, police announced today. Married and father of three children, Ellis had been missing from his home since Oct. 6. Constable Claire McGillen noticed the body in the canal Wed- nesday about a mile north-east of the city. TROUBLED HISTORY The history of Palestine is for the most part a chonicle of invas- ion, conquest and confusing divis- on. Legion Poppy Fund Aids Needy Veterans By the end of each year the bot- tom of the barrel containing the monies of the Canadian Legion Poppy Fund has been well scraped. It is seldom, in fact, that the fund's administrators manage to meet all their obligations without borrowing from one or other of the Legion's subsidiary groups. About $1500, one-third of which is contributed by the Community Chest, is expended each year on providing assistance and comfort of a temporary nature to veterans and their families or to indigent families: of veterans. Remaining two-thirds of that amount is, of course, raised by the annual Poppy Fud tag day to be held this year on November 6.

Seventy-four families received bas- kets worth $10 each. In a good many cases the Poppy Fund basket saved the day for children of needy veterans. Asked where Legionnaires got the poppies they sold each tag day, Mr. Jacklin said that they were made at Vetcraft Shops maintained by The Canadian Legion had the exclusive right to purchase popples from this organi- zation, Also for sale by the Poppy Fund are wreaths to be placed on mem- orials or monuments. They are, however, made by the women of the Ladies" Auxiliary fo the Legion. | Money received from these wreaths is used to provide a wreath for the grave of every vet- eran buried in Oshawa, whether he be a member of the Lgion dy not. Last year thirty-eight such wreaths were placed. MPS EEL ANNOY.

That the meal --Photo by Ernle Foote Health Welfare And Recreation Objects Of E. Whitby Campaign MRS. K. R. FLETCHER Correspondent Harmony, Oct. 14--In just a few days, the Greater Oshawa Com- munity Chest campaign opens. As has previously been intimated, East Whitby Township is working in conjunction with the city of Osh- awa. to make this year's drive a joint effort, for the benefit of all within these areas. This makes the people of East Whitby think back to the time when they were not receiving any specific amounts of money to fur- ther a health, welfare and recre- ation program. The need was there, however, and some organizations had undertaken, on their own ini- tiative, to meet recreation needs especially, Then last year certain amounts of money, previously budgetted for by those persons in- terested in the needs of the people and having a knowledge" of how thy could be met, were turned over to the East Whitby Welfare Associ- ation for distribution in the various zones, How much has the township benefitted from this? First, there is the angle of health. A full time nurse is now on the job constantly, visiting the schools and homes. Im- munization clinics have been set up, not only for school age children, but for any children six months of age and over. The Welfare Department has been able to accomplish much in helping many people. Its work is mainly . concerned with meeting emergencies, such as fires, and pro- viding Christmas cheer for recipi- ents of old age pensions and moth- ers' allowances and others with limited earning capacity. Great things have been accom- plished in the field of recreation. Each zone in the township has its park or school ground, equipped with the essentials for good, healthy sport. Supervisors were engaged and a programme of planed activi- ties for the small folk and older children carried on during the summer months, including model- ling with clay, the reading of stories, volley-ball and other games. These were carried on nearly every day. In addition, a complete inter- township softball schedule was arranged, with both men's and ladies' teams competing. No one can over-estimate the goodwill and pure enjoyment derived from such a programme, Older people may say they were able to get along without such things when they were children, but things have changed considerably since then. Life moves at a much faster tempo. There is more doing, and some of the things done are not creditable. If children are sport enthusiasts, if they belong to the Guides or Cubs; if the young people can find worth-while interests and hobbies at their own community centre, they are more likely to lead happy, well-adjusted lives, While thinking of the "benefits that have come to the township from these three sources, health, welfare and recreation, it is also well to: remember what th "Red Feather" means in a broader sense --through the Red Cross, the St. John Ambulance Association, the Y.W.C.A. and the many other agencies, all bent on one thing-- the common good of all. With these things in' mind, the people of East Whitby will be ready when called upon to con- tribute, and by their contributions will be helping each one of the humanitarian' agencies which is working all year long, for the benefit of the people of Greater Oshawa.

P. Nethercott, Di- rector of Vocational Guidance for the London Board of Education, said here last night at a dinner in the Hotel Genosha when General Motors played host to nearly 90 boys from London's five secondary schools. Earlier in the day, the boys had toured the GM plant under the auspices of London's General Motors dealers. "We in education," said Mr. Neth- ercott, "have three jobs to do: help young people to form worthy ob- jectives; help them to see how these objectives may be obtainable. and help them to make their objectives a reality. What we have seen and heard here today in Oshawa helps us all in these three aims. You are our greatest resources, and what we do with you, determines the fu. ture." William A, Wecker, President and General Manager of General Mo. tors of Canada, outlined in detail for the boys the, complex operation of building Canadian cars and trucks. He stressed the teamwork which must be present in modern industry and told something of the diversity of opportumity within the industry. The company's Director of Sales, E. J, Umphrey, told the visitors that Canada, in the next decade, would offer more plentiful opportunities than ever before. "The basis of suc- cess," said Mr. Umphrey, is not ne- cessarily cleverness or genius, btu a good basic education -- the foun- datic . of which is honesty, depend- ability, conscientiousness, diligence and hard work. These are the sim- ple qualities every successful man must possess. They are perfectly normal qualities which are as un- beatable combination." AUTO HIT BY TRAIN Toronto, Oct. 14--(CP)--John F. Johnson, 53, of Milliken, Ont., was seve injured here Wednesday when his automobile was wrecked by a CPR. freight train. Police said the car was carried 150 feet down the track, and thrown upside down in a ditch. Johnson was taken from the wreckage by the train crew and taken to hospital. Drought Reduces Tobacco Output Ottawa, Oct. 14--(CP)--An Aug- ust drought knocked out much of Canada's 1948 tobacco crop, but there will be still enough to look after next year's home consumption and exports, it was reported Wed- nesday. The Burcxu of Statistics estima- ted this year's crop, including all types of tobacco, at 109,055,000 pounds. This was a considerable drop from the pre-season estimate of 126,681,000 pounds but about: two per cent above last year's crop of 106,688,000 pounds. Harvesting of tobacco now is completed, Dr. N. A. MéRae, tobacco expert at the experimental farm, said this amount will probably look after do- mestic needs and also the limited export field. Britain has limited it- self to 57,000,000 worth, which on the basis of last year's prices would be about 13,500,000 pounds. Canada's other eain purchaser, the British West Indies, will probably take an- other 2,750,000 pounds. Price of this year's crop will ke set next weel Hot dry weather during the latter part of August and most of Sep- tember ,cut the yields of flue.cured tobacco in Ontario considerably and accounted for the greatest loss since the first estimate. Average yields of flue-cured tobacco in On- tario were reduced 120 pounds per If Saving Reduced--Hydro Plan Stricter Rules Is Found To Be Insufficient Toronto, Oct. 14 (CP)--The new, strict power regula< tions which took effect in Ontario Wednesday, with fines of from $100 to $500 for violators, may become more strict if enough electricity is not saved. the Ontario Hydro-Electric Power Commission, said the Commission would "carry on for a few days and see where we stand under the new regulations." He declined to elabor- ate more fully. Under the new regulations, passed last week by Order-in-Council of th: Ontario Government, outdoor daytime lighting is banned and commercial indoor lighting is re- duced to about one-half the amount previously permitted, Electric heaters and fireplaces are banned, except in cases of illness, Also illegal is the use of electric radiators and air heaters. H. D. Rothwell, administrator of power regulations, said quotas might not be reduced if municipali- ties stay within their quotas, but added, "there is no guarantee they will not be reduced." Sarnia, which failed to get is quota increased, will have its first general cut-off today. Londoners, warned to prepare for cut-offs Wednesday, received uninterrupted power, Four Are Questioned In Montreal Slaying Montreal, Oct. 14 -- (CP) -- Four persons taken into custody at Campbell's Bay, 65 miles north of Hull, Que., were brought here Wed- nesday night for questioning in connection with the slaying of two Montreal policemen in a Sept. 23 bank holdup. The four are Helen and Frank Perreault, sister and brother of Douglas Perreault, one of two men charged in the slaying, Robert Tremblay, 26, and Richard Young alias Johnny Young, 36.

Officials predicted that attend- ance on the third day of the four. day match would exceed Wednes- day's estimated 25,000. The biggest crowd is expected tomorrow when competition in special classes will decide the four champion plowmen to be awarded all-expense trips to Great Britain. ; The match, the 35th staged by the Ontario Plowmen"s Association, ends Friday night with the plowmen's banquet, Agriculture Minister Ken- nedy is scheduled to speak. Stubble-plowing - with jointer plows, open to all comers, was Wed- nesday"s main competition, Like spectators at a golf tournament, groups of up to 100 visitors follow= ed as close ds possible to their fav. orite contestants. Plowings started in the rain put ended under scud- ding clouds and patches of blue sky. Against a backdrop of a mile of crimson maples Sir Andrew Jones, head of the British Food Mission in Ottawa Wednesday declared the match officially open. He confessed | that he had never fitted his hand | to a plow and was attending his first plowing match but said he re- cognized the iilling of the soil as "the first esseniial step to food production," He warned the gathering that Britain next year would reduce fier imports of food from Canada as dol- lar conservation measure. At the same time she would "step up her own production oN grain and live stock." ; That did not mean that Britain intended to close her markets to Canadian farm produce, he said. As soon as Britain overcame her cur- remcy difficulties--"and she must close the gap between the cost of her exports and the valde of her imports before United States aid ends in 1952-53"--she would turn again to Canada for much of the 50 per cent of her foodstuffs which she still would need to import. "Farming in the United King- dom has not been nationalized," he said. "It remains a free enterprise. Moreover, agriculture in Great Bri. tain now is more fully mechanized that in any other country. There now is one tractor to every 60 acres of crop."
