Engimesring PAGE THREE Jaycees See OSHAWA-WHITBY, TUESDAY, MARCH 20, 1951. Knights of Columbus Automobile Is Presented' | Oshawa Junior Chamber of Com- merce members last night viewed | an interesting film entitled "Life § | Stream of the City" at a dinner 4 "Godliness, steadfastness, love, co-operation, friendship, mutual understanding as well as proper rules of conduct and principles of action must remain as the goals toward which we as- Canadians must strive if we are to continue the progress which has marked the first half of the 20th century in the Dominion. You cannot ex- pect to put down the wrong num- bers and expect to get the right answer," asserted Kenneth Green- away, executive secretary of Zel- lers Limited, Montreal, in a thought- provoking address to the members of the Oshawa Rotary Club at their luncheon meeting yesterday. Mr. Greenaway was introduced to the club by Morley Wyman, man- ager of Zellers Oshawa store, while the thanks of the gathering was voiced by President S. F. Everson. Depression Left Imprint Basing his remarks on the theme "Where Do We Go From Here?" Mr. Greenaway said the depression in the 30's and World War II as well as the by-products of these two monumental events had left their imprint upon Canada and Ca- nadians. During the last 50 years, Canada had lived up to the pro- phecy made by the late Sir Wilfred Laurier and attained nationhood. While Canadians are a modest people and prone to belittle them- selves and the things they do, it is a fact that few nations have had more bravery poured into the mould of their making. The Do- minion has been blessed with men and women of vision, the courage of their convictions, statesmen of integrity and soldiers to fight her battles with courage. Her rail- way builders played no small part in the uniting of the far-flung na- tion which occupies half a con- tinent. The development of Canada, Mr. Greenaway insisted, is a continuing story, but the time of real testing lies ahead and there is no reason to doubt that she will come through with flying colors Canadians Science-Minded Canadians, he sald, are a science minded people who are awed by nothing. However, the progress made had seemed to have removed the integrity of men and it would perhaps be as well return to a sense of servility. Canadian, he felt, should try to recapture 'the | power which is beyond their own | attainment--that of Jesus Christ.

Ask Thomson Oppose Beer Tax Increase Fearing an increased tax on beer, Local 1817, United Steelworkers of America, last night decided to ask Walter C. Thomson, M.P. for On- tario Riding, to oppose a tax boost on this beverage should the minis- ter of finance show an increase when he presents his budget to the House of Commons. "The local union felt that an in- crease in tax could result in higher prices for beer as it did last Sep- tember," said D. N. Kay, recording secretary. "Many of our members feel that beer is one of the few little luxury items which is still within the. reach of the working man's income." The meeting voted $25 contribu- tion to the Eastern Seal Fund of the Oshawa Rotary Club and de- cided to buy a prize fish trophy for the Union Rod and Gun Club.

Federal control soon will expire. In an address prepared for de- over a CBC Ontario Net- work in the free-time "Provincial Affairs" series, he said: "This control should be a two- way road so that neither the hon- est landlord nor the honest tenant suffers. All things should be done with a view to that which is fair and just. Both tenant and land- lord should be encouraged to co- operate with the government to make the task of the administra- tion as easy as possible."
