DAILY AVERAGE CIRCULATION for MARCH 10,558 WEDNESDAY, APRIL 4, 1951 Volunteers Needed * Oshawa social welfare agencies, grouped 'together under the heading of Community, 'dIncorporated, are carrying on splendid ser- evices to the people of Oshawa, of all ages, sthrough their activities. Included in the wprogram are all the various activities of the IC.R.A., Simcoe Hall, the Y.W.C.A. and the Girl Guides Association, four of the agencies "which are given financial support from the :Community Chest. 2 While the Community Chest assists in the Ifinancing of the programs of these agencies, iit is only fair to say that they would not "be able to carry on as they do were it not ifor the valuable assistance of a large force sof volunteer workers. These interested citi- &zens give freely of their time and ability in $places of leadership in the many groups fwhich are operated by these organizations. They do so because they enjoy the experience fof being able to make their contribution '0 $the welfare of the community. Their only reward is found in the results they see aris- sing from their labors. They know they are tengaged in a work which pays rich dividends sin better citizenship. # At this time, when a busy summer's pro- sram is being developed, these agencies are finding that their force of volunteer workers Je far short of what is necessary to do the ijob that has to be done. They could use the ervices of scores of people who have talents to use in the training of others, and in the sguidance of activity groups. And in so doing, ftheir own lives would be enriched by their iexperiences. The C.R.A,, and Y.W.C.A,, the tWomen's Welfare League, and other groups ssuch, as the Girl Guides and Boy Scouts, swould welcome the assistance of volunteers ito play a part in their activities, and we pass salong this invitation in the hope that it will sresult in a large-hearted response from zcitizens of ability and public spirit. LE Protecting Sunday : The Protestant clergymen of the town of Barrie have passed a resolution criticizing sstrongly "the attempt of the management sof the powerful syndicate of Toronto's Ma- ¢ple Leaf Gardens 'to force the two clubs in ithe final series of the O.H.A. Junior "A" * championship playoffs as to when the games would be played next Sunday in Toronto, = where there is a Sunday afternoon sports = by-law. The Barrie club refused to play on ® any Sunday, and were met with an ultima- ¥ tum that they would either play on Sunday 2 or the Marlboros would not play at all. The Barrie club management is to be com- mended on its stand in connection with this attempt to compel its players to play on Sun- day. They are perfectly within their rights, and it will be interesting to see what the out- come will be, as a meeting is being held to- night to decide the issue. It would be in the interest of sport, and of protecting Sun- day against the inroads of commercialism, ¢ were Barrie to stand firm in the decision g not to play in Toronto next Sunday. That ¢ would place the Marlboros in the position of : either accepting the Barrie decision and ar- ranging another date, or doing what they threatened, drop out of the final series. Regardless of what the Toronto by-law may say, what an individual or a group of ¢ individuals will do on a Sunday is a matter : for their own consciences. If they honestly ¢ feel that their own standards of conduct are : being violated by playing hockey on a Sun- % day, there is no power that can compel them : to do it. We do not think the O.H.A. would % be guilty of trying to impose such an order ? on any club within its jurisdiction. gov & * Director. wi-g Stes RENIN eR TRATED RARE HEIRS TATE IRIE stasaane Sun Warming Up It is quite a common thing to hear old people declare that the winters are neither as cold nor as severe as they used to be. They point to records of snowstorms and low tem- peratures of bygone days to back up their claims that the people of today are living in a milder age. Folks of today are inclined to accept these claims with a certain amount of tolerance, and to regard them as coming from a tendency tq exaggerate anything which has happened' generation or two ago. It seems, however, that the claim that the weather is getting warmer is founded on def- inite scientific facts. From the observatory of the Smithsonian Institute on Table Moun- tain at San Bernardino, California, comes the news that the sun is now delivering to the earth one per cent more heat than was the case twenty years ago. These observaticns have been confirmed by data 'collected on Mount Montezuma in Chile, where a similar observatory is located. The conclusion that the scientists have reached is that there has been a steady upward rise in solar heat dur- ing the last century, and that it has been greatly accelerated in the last twenty years. This increase in solar heat would, the scientists claim, be quite sufficient to effect considerable changes in the world's climate. So that science has at last lent some sem- blance of authority to the statements of the old-timers that our climate is not as cold as it used to be. Editorial Notes A United States shoe manufacturer says the women of his country have the biggest feet in the world. That claim will only stand until Soviet Russia hears about it. * Re + A shipload of snow imported into Britain from Norway for a ski contest was given a customs value of $9.00 a ton. At that price, just think of the value of the average winter's snowfall in Canada. Ld * * The British government estimates there will be a substantial deficit on the Festival of Britain, But against that there will be the millions of dollars that will be spent in the country by Canadian and United States visitors. + + LJ The Kingston Whig-Standard points to the fact that the Eskimos have had peace as far back as most people can remember. But that might be because they did not stand in the way of some country that wanted something that belonged to someone else. * Other Editors' Views @ HOLIDAY DATES (Saint John Telegraph-Journal) 'A holiday in the middle of the week is just a holi- day, but a holiday on Monday almost rates as'a short vacation. "To be realistic about it, not many citizens devote May 24 to contemplating the grandeur and glory of the Victorian era, or July 1 to recalling the deeds and dreams of the Fathers of Confederation and the stirring outcome of their efforts." * * * PLENTY OF BONES (Detroit Free Press) . The Manchester Guardian recently carried an ar- ticle pointing out that anatomists were complaining that their studies were being hampered .by a world- wide shortage of skeletons, The price of a full set of human bones has just about doubled because, for some reason not explained, skeletons are just no long- er being shipped froin countries which formerly made a good business of exporting them. Frankly, we can't see what there is to worry about. We have lots of official closets in Washington, for instance, and if some one would just take the trouble to open them, we are confident that they would find skeletons aplenty. ® A Bit of Verse @ SPRING IS COMING A call from a red robin High up in yonder tree. Is welcome music to the ear, That spring is going to be. Soon this fickle weather Of snow and wind and rain, Will change to sunny balmy days, Then spring is here again. Tulips shall be in bloom Grass begin to sprout Nature shall bestir itself Children will jump and shout. ' Happy in their freedom 'To be outdoors in the sun Throwing off heavy clothing They now can skip and run. No more snow to shovel Nor coal to throw on fire, No chores to worry about, ~Sweigert, in The San Francisco Chronicle Looking Around The World By DEWITT MacKENZIE Associated Press News Analyst Foreign Secretary Herbert Mor- rison of Britain told a home audi- ence Monday night that "this is the psychological moment" to try to end the Korean war. Simultaneously, Warren Austin, United States delegate to the Uni- ted Nations, expressed the opinion to newspaper men that from a mili- tary point of view this is a good time to talk peace for Korea. Now it's hardly likely that these two almost-identical expressions were - pure coincidence, especially since they were echoed yesterday by France. Indeed they seem to be a bit of purposeful kite flying, espe- cially since we know that the 14 Al- lies who have troops with the U.N. Army in Korea have been consider- ing a possible policy declaration re- garding peace. Conversations have been proceeding in Washington without fanfare. No U.N. Move As far as the United Nations it- self is concerned, it is said there is no move under way in that organ- imation for a peace proposal. How- ever, that doesn't indicate lack of interest. It's due to the fact that the U.N. has delegated authority to the United States to handle the Ko- rean issue, and consequently the matter is being discussed in Wash- ington. Here it should be emphasized there is no indication the Chinese Reds are ready to talk peace. There has been nothing further from them since they rejected Gen. MacArth- ur's negotiation offer of March 24. Since there has been a fresh massing of Red troops in' Korea. The Peiping government has declar- ed that it will eject the U.N. forces from Korea, and the current Com- munist gathering of troops could represent a preliminary to such an effort. As regards this being the "psycho- logical moment" to try to end the war, that may be true if you em- phasize that little word "try." Mac- Arthur's troops are in possession of South Korea and are standing in force at the hotly-disputed 38th Parallel. If peace were made, neith- er side need lose face. Move For Record Moreover, there is widespread feeling among U.N. members that a peace move should be made for the record. It would show where both sides stand. Actually the attitude of the Chi- nese Communist. regime towards peace is likely to be settled, not in Peiping but in Moscow, Therefore the big question is whether the Russians want peace in Korea--or anywhere else abroad. Says Russia Soon Able To Attack U.S. Washington, April 4 -- (CP) -- Chairman Carl Vinson of the House of Representatives Armed Services Committee said Tuesday that Russia "in a short space of time" will have sufficient stockpile of atomic bombs to loosen "a ter- rible attack on our cities and homes whenever she wisi®s to do so." Vinson, Georgia Democrat, spoke in the debate on universal military training. He urged the house to enact a combination draft-UM.T. law to give the US. "the steel" he said Russia will respect. He asked the house not to eliminate long- range U.M.T. provisions from the bill to extend the draft law and lower the induction age from 19 to 18%. a Classified ads are sure to pay -- Peanut Oil Rapid Means Add Weight By ALTON L. BLAKESLEE Boston, April 4--(AP) -- One glass of a new milky drink gives sick people the energy from three' pieces of ple with ice cream. The drink is peanut oil, homog- enized like milk. It has a sweet, milky taste, tinged with peanut fla- vor. One pint gives you 2,000 calor- ies -- about two-thirds the daily energy needs of the average man. The fat drink works like a charm in supplying energy and helping people gain weight, Dr. Frederick L. Stare, chairman of the nutrition department, Harvard School of Pub- lic Health, reports in The Journal of the American Dietetic Associa- tion. The emulsion is made by Up- john Company, Kalamazoo, Mich., under the trade name Lipomul. The fat drink has been tested on 300 patients and 50 normal volun- teers, Dr, Stare said. The patients were men and women who needed building up before or after an op- eration, who had little appetite, or who were emaciated by tuberculosis, arthritis and other diseases. They gained from one to 22 pounds in a short time on the fat drink, Some gained a pound in the first two days, drinking a half pint daily. It is taken between meals, or early in the evening. Drinking it just before going to bed might give you a stomach ache, just as from overloading with pie or other rich food. oe Bouquets BASEBALL CLUBS THANKS The Editor, The Times Gazette.

Out there a political Storm has arisen because The government service Of state hospitalization Is costing more than Its promoters anticipated, And the government is Insisting that the rates Charged to the people Must be raised so that It will pay its way, . And not incur deficits To be met out of Fublic taxation. This is a demonstration Of the inescapable fact That it is impossible To get something for nothing, And that sooner or later Someone pays the bill, So the hospital service In British Columbia Has to be financed with The people's money either Through the rates charged Or by the increasing Of taxes to meet the Inevitable deficits, Because there can be no Free government service. That is something which Should be remembered When we are demanding Social and other services Which seem to cost nothing But for which in the Final analysis we always Have to pay. ® 25 Years Ago General Motors produced 6,129 cars in March, 1926, the highest record in the company's history up to that time.

KNOX Cambridge, Mass., April 4--(AP) --Dr. Hugh MacDonald Sinclair, British biochemist who directed an Oxford University nutrition survey throughout Europe, reported today that there are no long-term serious results from under-eating. He doesn't recommend starvation, but he says a diet deficient in the amounts and kinds of food gener- ally considered necessary for ade- quate-nutrition appears to produce no disease conditions comparable to those associated with over-eatinz. Describing studies of population samples in England, Holland and Germany, Dr, Sinclair told the Harvard Medical School: "We found no lasting effects on the population that were caused by under-nutrition. "In Holland, for example, where a serious famine existed for a time, we found less high blood pressure, less coronary heart disease and less incidence of diabetes and arthritis. All these maladies go primarily with over-eating. Over-nutrition can be as serious a problem as under- nutrition." Breakfast, he says, can be the cheapest meal of the day and yet yield one-quarter to one-third .of the day's direst needs. He mention- ed oatmeal and whole-grain cereals for breakfast. He approves milk and cheese. Puddings and fruit desserts, 'with a fruit bowl near the sugar bowl" may deliver more nutritional value at lower cost than some kinds of cakes and preserves. A Meat from the cheaper fore quar- ters may yield protein, niacin (A B vitamin) and other values as high as the costly steaks, roasts and chops.
