S. Ebbs in police court this morning for driving while his license was under suspension. Leary was stop- ped by Provincial Constable N.K. McCombe, on Highway No. 2, near Dun nm, on December 23. Questioning revealed that the li- cense of the accused had been sus- nded for a period of three lonths in Toronto 'court on Oc- tober 6. The accused was not in- volved in an accident. He pleaded guilty to the charge. Md Allies (Continued from page 1) most votes the United States could hope for was 44.

Another diplomat gloomily pre- dicted that Peiping might conclude that if present military pressure in Korea had split the anti-Commun- ist front so far, a little more might disrupt it further. The Asian-Arab group worked on the basis of a resolution which they submitted in December calling for a seven-power conference to settle Far Eastern problems. It is similar to the appeal which Peipi re- Jected Wednesday, ine A. spokesman said today's meet- | ing would try to decide whether to press this resolution in an amended form -- it. had originally pre-sup- posed a cease-fire, to submit a new posal or to sit back on the side- #8 and support neither the United States position nor one di« yectly opposed to it, Oshinwe.

She stated that at noon a thermometer op her back porch registered a temperature the thermometer was sitting in the sun but said that the breeze was blowing across it. SKIDDING CAR HITS SIGN When Sydney Harmer, 966 Sim- coe Street North, applied his brakes at the corner of Elgin and Simcoe Streets yesterday morning to allow the car ahead of him to make a left turn on to Elgin Street, his car went out of control on the icy pave- ment and skidded across the road striking an Oshawa bus stop sign. About $50 damage was done to Harmer's car. Constable Jordan in- vestigated the accident. BURNER FLARE-UP Firemen from the Richmond | Street Fire Station, under Assist- ant Chief Milton Oster, were called to the home of Mrs. E. Hanna, 102 Gibb Street, late yesterday after- noon where an oil burner flare-up caused a minor blaze. Later in the evening, firemen, under Captain Roughley, answered a 'false alarm turnéd in on Fernhill Boulevard. Tot (Continued from page 1) "mix-up" in jurisdiction between Provincial Police and Whitby Town police no search was organized until this morning. Mr. and Mrs. Hartwig and family dwell in a tiny cabinet on No. 12 Highway at Rice's Hill. Sinclair's School is about a mile from the dwelling. Besides Norlene there are two other children in the family, Lynda, four, and Wayne, 18 months old. Police described: the , missing girl as being four feet, five inches in height, weighing 75 pounds, brown eyes, straight blonde hair, wearing a green coat with blue leggings and long rubbers. Investigators have also decided to check reports the girl had been kept in school at recess Wednesday for breaking school rules. Canada Gold (Continued from page 1) | decline in dollars meant a growing | preference for the previous metal or | whether the bank would in the fu- | ture concentrate on gaining gold | rather than dollars. The figures, though significant, still maintained their discretions. But they told a glowing story of recovery. The reserves at the end of Dec- ember had climbed to $1,741,000,000, more than three times the $511,000, | 000 in January, 1948, when Cana- | da's austerity and dollar-saving | program went into high gear. In each month after that, the recovery signs became brighter. The reserves climbed from $511,000,000 in January to $997,800,000 in December, 1948; from $1,021,00, to $1,117,000,000 in the January-December per- + fod of 1949; from $1,149,000,000 to $1,741,000000 in the 12 of 71 degrees. She admitted that | George Drew's Speech (Continued from page 1) whom he felt honored to consider as a friend, Lines Sharply Drawn "In these days," sald Mr. Drew, the lines are being sharply drawn, few of us had anticipated that at one day or another we would be ask ' to stand on one side or the other. I see it, the issue today is very ple--it is an issue be- tween freedom and slavery. "Give freedom whatever name you will and call slavery what you will but the fact remains that we, in this country, have freedom, and they, in those countries which, we say, are behind the 'Iron Curtain,' do not have freedom. The issue remains very clear and it is up to us to choose," Mr. Drew said. Men and women in this country, he continued, whatever political course they might pursue, have the right to "Go their own way." This fundamental right was denied them in slave-ridderf countries. "Never in the long history of the human race has there been so vile a form of subjugation as that which has been imposed upon 'slave' countries by Communism, "There is a kind of horror; a kind of hatred and trouble which we do not ordinarily think of when you hear the stories of people who have escaped from these states," the speaker said. Things to Cherish The survival of freedom; the survival of civilization; the surviv- al of every decent thing we know. These, said Mr. Drew, were the things we should cherish. "Whatever else we do we must understand the evil which con- fronts us. We must realize that there is no reason. for comfort. There is no reason for security. These things we have to fight the best way we know." All that has happened in the past few months in Korea, Mr, Drew continued, should awaken us to the realization that there is an "enemy within our midst." It should arouse us to reality; it should arouse' us to the knowledge of what could and has happened in other countries. "A principle which is sound in the smaller countries is still sound when applied to larger nations," said Mr. Drew referring to the gradual relinquishment of liberty by some of the Balkan states. "There are those who say that China is different" he continued. "Surely it should be realized by now that the present head of the government in China has been a stalwart of Moscow for 30 years. +He has been carrying out their or- ders and their explicit instructions for that time. The origin of the Communist Party was a small meeting attended by Mao Tse Tung in 1921. He took his instruc- tions then and he still is taking them now." At the same time, Mr. Drew stated, the Communists Party -in Canada had its beginning in a small way. It has never changed its theory or its objectives. It was destrutcion then and now is still destruction. "If we regard Communism in Can- ada as something unimportant," said Mr. Drew, "We should regard what has happened in other coun- tries where they allowed its organ- ization to gain strength. In China, they were very tolerant of Commu- nism. For many years the Koumin- tang Party, under the leadership of Sun-Yat-Sen, and later of Chiang- Kai-Shek, accepted the Commu- nists, including Mao, in their organ- ization. They thought it a good thing to let the Communists work with and assist them. Because they months of 1950. The reserves reached their peak | in October, 1950, when holdings | | touched $1,826,800,000: $542,800,000 | in gold and $1,2680000 in dollars. They had jumped tremendously | { from $206,00,000 in gold and $215,- | 000,000 in dollars in January, 1948. | Korea (Continued from page 1) were killed by air strikes and the remainder by ground troops. Bodies were counted in the snow where they lay sprawled. 'The battle near Yongwol came during sharp patrol ac- tions, cracking all along the Korean war front, which ap- peared to be preliminaries of a third major drive by Chinese and North Korean Reds down the centre of the peninsula. Communist forces continued to shift to central and eastern sectors in a way reminiscent of the two previous enemy offen- sives -- the plunge across the Chungchon River and the drive into Seoul. The Allied attack around Yong- wol was not classed as an offensive, but an officer said: "It must be quite a scrap. The area is full of those jokers, Elsewhere along the front, Com- munist patrols tried to close gaps between Communist, and U.N. forces after two weeks of comparative in- action. Heaviest Red concentrations still were in the west, south of Seoul, where three Chinese armies total- ling about 90,000 men were feeding some of their strength to the cen- tral and eastern sectors. AP Correspondent Don Huth re- ported from Eighth Army Head- quarters that it appears "possible that the long-awaited Red offen- sive to drive the U.N. troops from Korea may start rolling again soon." : Huth said elements .of a Red Chinese division were seen moving 16 miles east of Suwon, 17 miles south of Seoul. An air observer said the Chinese were digging in Thurs- day night along a river 14 miles northeast of Suwon. Red Berlin Control Tight, Trucks Taken | Berlin, Jan. 19%--(Reuters)-- Russian guards at the Marien- born interzsomal border check- point have confiscated 12 trucks taking scrap metal from West Berlin to West Germany during the last few days, the | West German News Agency | DPA said today. v | China. were so tolerant, and regarded it as just another political point of view, Mao was able to build as he did to achieve the Communist occupation lof China. "Since this is the thing to be de- cided to a great extent by the people in countries where they are still free it is essential tha. they should know what Communism is. We can see what has happened in Russia. see what has happened in Poland, in Czechoslovakia, in Bulgaria, in in Hungary and Rumania and in We must examine our po- sition in Canada in the light of what Communisn, has meant to these other nations. "We should remember, when it is emphasized that there are not many Communists in Canada, that in no country in which the Com- munists have taken control has there been a ma, rity of Com- munist Party members". declared Mr. Drew. "In Russia, in 1917, less than one half per cent of the population was included in the membership of the Communist Party. Even today, less than three per cent of the people of Russia are party members. In the Ukraine, which I hope it will be remembered is regarded by Russia as a separate national entity, by virtue of which it has a seat in the United Nations, thirty-five millfon people are dom- inated by a small percentage of Communists. So it is in all the countries in which Communism hac come into power. By all means let ur recognize that all the Chinese people are not Communists. Neither are the people of Russia or any of the satellite countries. Unfortunate- ly, we must deal with the govern- ments of these countries, and being what they are, these governments have to be dealt with as we find them. g Terrifying Expansion "Communism today is a force," said Mr. Drew, "which has brought under its control more of the world's people than have ever at any time in history been brought under the domination of a single force. In less than six' years, over one- third of the population of the world has been brought under its control. This terrifying expansion of the vilest force of slavery ever known by man can only be met and faced when we know the nature of the menace with w ich we are con- fronted. "We as a nation fought to destroy Nazi Power," said the speaker. Naz- ism was a form of slavery which | placed the state above the individual as a free human being. That fight still goes on, but wit a greater and more powerful enemy. We must carry the struggle into' our homes, and into our communities, for the greatest defence against this evil i% in our own domestic life in Can- ada as in all other free lands. "What are we fighting?" Mr. Drew We | asked. "What are we seeking to pre- serve? There is nothing complicated about it. It is very simple. WI ait we are fighting for told very simply in a poem 'whic included 'in a volume of poems published by the famous 8th Army commanded by Field Marshal Montgomery, a poem entitled, 'A Soldier--His Prayer.' This poem has remarkable history. It does not carry the name of its author, as does the poem 'In Fland- ers Fields' and for a very simple reason. As the barrage was being laid down at El Aghela, to open the battle of T1 Alamein, a piece of pa- per fluttered into a slit trench. On it. was written this poem, written by a soldier going into'a battle. The fact that in the years since then no one has ever claimed its authorship suggests that its writer lost his life in the engagement. In the poem, he describes the sensa- tions of these, with their families at home, going into battle. He tells of his love of wife and children, and of the struggle they were facing. Then comes this verse which tells what he was fighting for: "We know what we are fighting for We know that death is but a door; Peace for our kids, our brother freed, A kinder world, a cleaner breed. "That is what we are fighting for. That is what our men fought for in Italy, in France and Hol- land and Germafy and on other fields of battle," said Mr. Drew, "That is what the young men fighting and dying in Korea are fighting for--not for the occupa- tion of Suwon, not for victory in battle, but that they may preserve freedom for themselves and that their brothers within the whole human community may be free from the slavery into which they have been brought in these past years. That is the issue here; it is the issue elsewhere. In a Total Struggle "We are in a total struggle to an extent we have never known before. It will be won not only by the efforts of the men who carry arms, but through the kind of life we build. That does not mean our life in terms of our fine homes, in terms of large pay envelopes and the comforts we enjoy, impor- tant as these are. We will win as we understand between the two forms of life, and build something far beyond the materialism of the Communist system. We do not yet clearly understand that Com- munism does appeal to the mater- ial instincts in the lands where it is in power today. "We will not be able to stem the tide of Communism by offer- ing a higher measure of material things, but when we raise the ban- ner which regards spiritual and decent things above every other consideration, things such as free- dom, belief in God and the impor- tance of the. individual as against the importance of state. The suc- cess and strength of our civiliza- tion will be measured by the ex- tent to which the spiritual aspect of life is made the guide of our actions, We "will have lost the struggle if we simply give our peo- ple a higher meastre of material advantages and lose our spiritual aspirations as a basis for civiliza- tion. Free Sytem Challenged Today we are challenged to build our life on a basis of mutual understanding to demonstrate the strength of our free system. Our democracy depends on the extent to which, through criticism and discussion, we give consideration to our public affairs, We must also demonstrate the sfrength of our system by the way in which we | carry it forward as free people. | "We have an opportunity here in Canada to show how people can | live and work in harmony and | build a free society, extending the | broad base of freedom to all peo- ple. There are those who would seek to create misunderstandings between different parts of our country, between different occupa- tions, between religious points of view. One group, which is doing all it can to sow the seeds of mis- understanding, is made up of the Communists in our midst. As we seek to build a free society, it seems to me that 'with all the evidence before us, we should say that in- sisting, as we do, on freedom of speech and thought we should not tolerate the traitors in our midst, and take steps, and should take steps to deal with those who would force on us the vilest form of slavery that has ever been impos- ed on the world. "It is time to say that while we insist on the right of every Cana- dian to express his opinions, we will not permit our freedom to be used to assist those who would de- stroy that freedom. All we ask is that there be effective laws by destroy our electrical and indus- 'had been away from her home for which -those who would destroy our freedom can be brought before the courts, tried by a judge and jury, and if found guilty, subjected to the penalties of the law. Can Be Great Danger "We may say that there are only 30,000 or 40,000 Communists in Canada, but they can be a great danger in time of stress. As we look 'back to the last war, it might be suggested as there were no great acts of sabotage then by the Communists, we do not need to be worried now: But, it is well to remember that at no time during the last war were we at war with Russia. At no time would it have been to the advantage of Russia to trial plants. Russia might have looked with concern on the de- struction of those things which built our power to destroy Ger- many. : "But if the time ever came," asserted Mr. Drew, "when we faced a military decision with Russia, the Communists would receive different instructions from those in the last war. A few men, with knowledge of Where to act and what to do, could wreck the production poten- tial of this country at a time when the success of democracy depend- ed on the things we produce. "We are an arsenal of freedom and democracy. The United States is not the only arsenal. Canada, Britain and the nations of West- ern Europe are also in that cate- gory, and they are arrayed against the only country wich can menace | our freedom. There can be no doubt that the plans of those who would destroy us are already pre- pared for the sabotage of our war potential. Living in Stirring Times "We are living in stirring tmes," said the speaker. "They are of great concern to all of us. When we look at the story of Commu- nist aggression, perhaps we have taken too high an estimate of Com- munist power. It also has its weaknesses. As we think of its strength, let us also think of the weakness in Russia and its satel- lites, where there are millions who Took to the restoration of their freedom in the days ahead. If the free nations stand together today, as I think they will, I have every confidence that the time will come for a great change in other lands, and the people in Russia, China and other satellite countries will help to bring en the day when their freedom will be | restored. . | "Let us keep our vision and ob- jectives clear. Then we will not have a static picture of Commun- ism advancing, but a brighter day when every nation will have the right to assert what kind of gov- ernment it wants by the free vote of its people. Let us keep in mind what freedom means to us, and bring hope to the hundreds of mil- lions of people who want freedom as can only people who have lost it, so that the nations now enslav- ed may have freedom in the days ahead and the desires of the con- ference at San Francisco in May, 1945, can be fulfilled. "I hope that in the lifetime of many who are here tonight we will see a United Nations meeting at which the people of free nations will voice the hopes of Russia, China, Rumania, Czechoslovakia, Lithuania, Esthonia, Latvia, and all the other countries now under dictatorship, a meeting at which these people can get together and thank God that there were those who had the freedom we have and | which they deserve. "If we show our strength, we can preserve peace and through the weaknesses of the dictatorships, which will break up because of the forces within them." Hon. G. D. Conant, in expressing appreciation to Mr. Drew for his address, said he fully agreed that laws should, be enacted to outlaw Communism and the Communist Party in Canada, and he paid tri- bute to Mr, Drew as a great Cana- dian who still had a great part to play in the country's affairs, Said Missing, Girl Returns To Home ' Fifteen-year-old Barbara Craw- ford who was reported missing, re- turned hom after "seeing her name in the paper", Mrs. D. Crawford, 231 Drew Street, mother of the girl, said today. She had been staying at the home of one of her friends in Ajax and hunting for a job. The girl was reported as missing to the police on Monday after she over a week. She left her home to go to school on January 8, but left a note for her parents in the mail-box stating that she was going to go to a friend's house and would call them in two or three days. When she did not hear from her, Business As Usual Hit By Cluxton fence Minister Claxton swung into tour today, after warning a Halifax audience that "business as usual is over." : Amid Ottawa reports that the defence budget this year will soar to $1,600,000,000, he told the Hali- fax Board of Trade last night that the "program I shall be putting before the next session of Parlia- ment will leave no doubt in the minds of anyone that business as usual is over." Instead, there was going to be more business than usual which would put pressure on resources of manpower, raw material and the productive capacity of the Dominion. Defence had become Canada's biggest business. Expenditures of $104.800,000 four years ago com- par with an appropriation of $567,000,000 this year. Other gov- ernment departments were spend- ing more than $100,000,000 on de- fence matters, "War," he said, "is not inevitable, neither is peace." These were some of the results of the current crisis: 1. Canada and the United States were setting up a ring of stations on the coasts of Labrador and New- foundland. 2. Orders had been placed - for tooling up for the production of U.S.-type motor vehicles and other military equipment in Canada. 3. Canada had proposed that she manufacture radar and wireless sets, medium guns and aircraft for Atlantic Pact Allies in quantities large enough to use up the $300,000,000 voted for European arms aid. 4. $60,000,000 would be spent to replace for the Army the equipment sent to The Netherlands. 5. The Navy would accelerate its program of refitting, rearming and commissioning. Canada was faced with this sort of effort for "perhaps a generation, until the threat of war is ended More Officers 3 (Continued from Page 3) been very constructive, well con- ducted, resulting in a feeling of co-operation and assistance. We have had many lengthy discussions, requests for radio, increased staff, and arranged to rent quarters for office space, which was sorely needed. These gentlemen have given much of their time and ef- fort while serving this township, and I trust that council 'on a whole will receive their report - when presented, and grant my requests. I assure you, gentlemen, that you will have no regrets, but will look with pride at the services you are supplying the people whom you represent. I am pleased to report that we must have been successful in solv- ing most of our major cases, and many of our minor ones, I give credit to the whole staff for their untiring efforts, and willingness to work long hours in their endea- vours to keep our area clear of crime. I myself have found it necessary to put in eighteen to twenty hours per day, and have since my appointment. Police Quarters We are greatly overcrowded and inconvenienced by trying to carry on 24 hours of service in the small office at my home, and I am very pleased that the Committe have arranged to rent the detached building on No. 2 Highway, oppo- site our present location. I am sure that we will be able to in- crease our efficiency and service in these larger quarters. Mobile Equipment We are in need of two cruisers, supplied by the township, to serve the area properly on a 24 hour basis. These with radio will make our Department 100 per cent effici- ent, by being able to keep constant contact with the station, and each other. Personnel The present strength of four all ranks is inadequate to render real service, and I have recommended the immediate appointment of three constables. This would enable a 24 hour service on the telephone and radio, and we could then give immediate service to all calls and complaints. Crime The many cases of housebreak- ing and shopbreaking have been alarming, but our successful inves- tigation of .these has enabled us to clear up 95 per cent of them, and to recover most of the property stolen.
