The contacts were made and the deal effected by Mrs. Evelyn Cook, real estate agent, Newcastle, The amount in- volved was not disclosed "but it is said to run into comparitively high brackets. i Willow Acres, consisting of 140 acres on the 2nd. Concession, Dar- lington Township, just north "of Boys Training School on Soper Creek, was developed and operat- ed by Mr. and Mrs. Fergus Mor- rill, formerly of Toronto, during the past decade to become one of the most attractive farm proper- ties in the country. The total acre- age consisted of 85 acres of the 'W. W. Henderson farm and 55 acres of the former Bellman estate. Modern Improvements Mr, Morrill o y built up an accredited herd of Holsteins and thus entered the local dairy pictlire as a large producer. More recently he set out 18 acres of young orchard, mostly Spys and McIntosh varieties, and these two great improvements become val- uéd assets to the new owner. Fin- ally Mr. Morrill established a Gladiolus Nursery on the farm, the success of which claimed so much of his time that he decided to concentrate wholly on the lat- ter enterprise. With the two properties having two complete sets of farm build ings, Mr. and Mrs. Morrill moder- nized their farm home by install- ing three-fold water system, tiled baths and new heating and with broadloom carpets and modern furniture, the residence had all the comforts and conveniences found in the better homes in the city. The buildings on the Bellman half were fitted as the residence of a married farm foreman. The New Owner The entire estate, including the Holstein herd and the basic home furnishings, went lock, stock and barrel to the new owner Mr. H. Gregory Merritt, Toronto indus- trialist who took possession on Friday, December 3. Mr. Merritt, head of Precision Die and Casting Company, and interested in several other Toronto industries, plans to sell his Toronto home at 97 Doug- "las Drive, Toronto, and will make the family residence in future on Willow Acres, although the name of the estate may be changed in the transfer. Mr. Merritt is married When Yon WORN OUT and Worried malt duty » i and has a son 3 years of age. He will employ a farm foreman and continue operations where Mr. Mor- riN left off, save for the Gladiolus Nursery enterprise. New Town Industry Prior to completicn of the sale, Mr. and Mrs. Morrill closed a deal for the Scobell estate in the town of Bowmanville, located on King St. E.,, at the head of Simpson Ave. On its 15 acres they will continue Willow Acres Gladiolus Nursery and they are presently moderniz- ing the old Scobell home along city lines. Catalogues of Willow Acres" Glads now circulate elear across the continent and Mr. Mor- til statés that his bulb distribu- jon for 1948 runs to over four mil- on. Jews Agree : To Discuss Withdrawal Paris, Dec. 10--(AP)--A United Nations official said Israel agreed Negev Desert of Southern Pales- tine The Israeli government notified the acting Palestine mediator, Dr. Ralph J. Bunche, that it is ready to negotiate a stage-by-stage with- drawal of its troops {rom the Negev, the official said. The Israeli reply brought can- cellation of a scheduled later today of the Security Coun- cil's special committee on Palestine, which' is considering the Negev situation. Aubrey 8S. Eban of Israel had been expected to tell the com- mittee the Faluja forces would be freed. Release of the garrison would remove one of Egypt's most im- portant declared objections to en- tering armistice talks with the Jewish state. Israeli sources said Thursday night their 'government probably would decide to release the Egyptians by stages. The General Assembly proposed to take up the twice-revised Bri- resolution 'on Palestine after d of the declaration of hu- rights, The British resplution would set up a three-power com- ciliation commission. It would take over the mediation functions now handled by Dr. Ralph J. Bunche of the United States and such spe- cific jobs as working out details of an international regime for Jerusa- lem within a year. Israel's chances for U. N. mem- bership this year faded. A meeting of the Security Coun- cil, scheduled for this moming, to resume consideration of Israel's ap- plication was called off. France and Canada, which hold. key votes among the 11 members on the coun- cil, had wanted action delayed until the General Assembly voted a Palestine settlement plan, F.N. McCallum (Continued from Page 1) ists and I would not think of them as being Communists, It is not too late to correct this policy. Number of Forgotten Men "There are also a number of for- gotten men in our party. One is John Diefenbaker. He has been forgotten but I hope he won't be for long for no man could do more to bring back those who have slip- ped to the Socialist and Liberal folds. If we are to win the next election we will have to win back a lot of these votes. "In 'this riding the COF has the backing of the unions," Mr. Mac- donald continued. "A large per- centage of the voters are trade unionists. In the last election they voted CCF and they consider them- selves a part of a crusade. Do you? I think we have forgotten that we, too, are a part of a cru- sade or else we have become lazy. We. must sacrifice something to win in this constituency." Then Mr. Macdonald made the suggestion that the Progressive Conservatives and the Liberals join to defeat the 'CCF. "It is the only way we can save this constituency for free enter- prise, freedom of worship and free- dom of speech," he declare Delegates Taken By S The reaction to Mr. Macdcnald's speech was one of surprise to the delegates. There was no applause when he finished speaking although there was much whispering going on while the ballots were being col- lected. When R. D. Humphreys, K.C., president of the association and chairman of the meeting an- nounced that Mayor McCallum had won the nomination, the hall rang with cheers. After announcing the meeting's decision, Mr. Humphreys said: "I disagree with Mr. Macdonald's views. Our leader, Mr. Drew is one of the greatest socialists in the Dominion, Look at the social leg- islation he has put throuzh. His concern is for the common 'people, but does damn people who try to hide behind the Socialist banner and who are Communists and want to overthrow the government of the people. We will not have any saw-off with the Liberal Party," he continued amid cheers, * because it would mean that one of the two great parties would disappear and leave an open field for the CCF and their Com- munist hangers-on to become the official opposition and the official opposition usually; at some time or another, comes into power. If we are to save the country, we will do it by ourselves and with no saw- offs with the Liberals." Mr. Humphreys was followed by T. K. Creighton, K. C., former MLA for the riding who imtroduc- ed J. M. MacDonnell, K. C., pres- ident of the national Progressive Conservative Association. Mr, Creightori remarked that he was surprised ky Mr. Macdonald's at- titude and thought he was mis- taken about the feeling and temper of the party. : "We have felt the power of the C.C.F. but we know that its weak- ness is that it represents only a portion of popular opinion in the Dominion," he said. "The C.C.F. does not represent the opinion of all Labor. There are mén whose heads are not buried in the sands of Socialism." Mr. Macdonnell added that he agreed with Mr. MacDonald that the C.CF. "has a lot of crusaders," but pointed out that the Progressive Conservative also had something to work for. Mayor McCallum, in accepting the nomination, declared that he was firmly behind Mr. Drew as a national leader and pledged himself to give him and the Pro- gressive Conservative party best efforts. Since he was retiring as mayor of Oshawa, he said, he | would be able to devote more time to. the support of the-party. He admitted he had made a lot of mis- takes in the last by-election, but added that he would be able to profit by them. But, hé warned, he could not do the job of getting his | elected by himself; he would need. the aid of all party members. Election of Officers The meeting re-elected R. D. Humphreys as president, Ernest Marks as secretary and Norval Will- son as treasyrer and named the following vice-presidents, Grant Christie, Alymer Cawker, Mrs. Eva Hastings, Wilmot Bain, Jack Bald- son, J. M. Roblin, Jack Lowe, Thomas Havding, Mrs. Gertrude Hood Edward Clarke and Gordon Attersley. Delegates and alternates to the coming provincial convention are: J. M. Roblin, Alymer Cawker, Mrs. E. L. Barnhart, Mrs: C. Rowlands, Oscar Downey, Mrs. Lloyd Nichols, Ray Ferguson and Jack Baldson.

MacLar- en, BS.A,, Director of Ontario Farm Service Forcé, are contributing to the support 6f adopted children in war-torn Europe. This worthwhile undertaking was revealed for the first time today by Mr. MacLaren. "In our Farm Service Force Camps this last summer, the matter of adopting some child in Europe through the Save the Child Fund, was discussed," Mr. MacLaren says. We were. told that $50 would take care of one child for a year. "Enough money was immediately raised in the Oakville and Thedford camps to adopt a child and in the West Niagara, East Niagara and Toronto-Hamilton area there was enough raised 'to adopt three more." Mr. MacLaren says that if the idea were publicized, it is possible that other groups might undertake the same work. Here are descriptions-of the chil- dren assigned to the various areas: Oakville--Simone Armand, a girl of 14, living with her mother at | LeCouquet, France, is one of four left fatherless after the sea battle at Casablanca. Thedford--José Vandevelpe, 12, lives with her parents in Belgium. She is one of five children ranging from six months to 13 years. Her father is a miner but does not work regularly because of many dif- ficulties his country is undergoing. East Niagara--Jean Balamec, a lad of 11, lives with his mother in Douarneny, France. He is one of four children left fatherless after battle at Rochefort. West Niagara--Miara Mastroste- fano, ten year old girl in Italy is motherless as her mother died of an incurable disease. The child is in a delicate condition. The father is very poor and is trying to raise his family alone. ' Toronto-Hamilton--Spiros Saca- rellis is 12 years old. His father is dead and his mother lives very mis- erably with four children. The | child's existence depends entirely o! public assistance. « VALUABLE WOOL The wool clip of Australia's sheep in 1947 vas valued at $448,000,000. zed fibreweave, rich blue 'or maroon grained ort lool Sets Front Seats __ for Front & Rear ther protective. bands. 14.25 35 custom tailored patterns and textures--Ifeatured by the world's largest automotive store.
