There is no regulation as {to who shall do the killing.

There is no | bylaw forbidding firing of guns in| the village, Corporal Bruce explain- | | ed. He recently recommended such 1a bylaw be passed. | Checking Laws Corp. Bruce said he was checking | Section 537 of the Criminal Code, | which provides a penalty of up to | a $500 fine or a year at hard labor for any one shooting a dog which is not definitely a stray. However, | the local bylaw clashes with this law. Several mothers on the where Niggy was shot said they | feared some bullet intended for a | | dog might hit a child. "Something should be done at {once said Mrs. Grace Wootten of | Brock Street. "Our dog (another | black spaniel) was shot through the {leg the 'other day find out who did it." Meanwhile, Bobbie and John Mc- Cormack have another dog to help them forget Niggy is dead. A neigh- | bor, Mrs. Joe Campbell, loaned them her pet for a few days. Retail Sales Course Closes Tuesday Night tail Sales Course will be held at the Genosha Hotel on April 10, (to- | morrow) April 17, and April 24, It is the desire of the Oshawa Chamber of Commerce that every retailer take advantage of this course by attending with your em- ployees, whether you are a mem- | ber of the Chamber of Commerce or not. The course thus far has been extremely helpful to those who have attended and it is only rea- sonable to expect that others would like to also take advantage of the facts so closely affiliated with their own business. The attendance been this year has very encouraging and will these lectures. It will be through thes that the customer appeal twill start and I am sure there. is not a busi- {ness man in the city of Oshawa, that is not anxious to have his | store and his employees spoken of in the highest terms.

Guilbault is already | serving a sentence of four months | in Cobourg where he was convicted of similar offences. He pleaded guil- ty to the charges of obtaining mon- ley from Peter Fuller, 286 Albert | Street, Harry Holmes, 226 Celina | Street, and Mitchell Valentine, 106 Olive Avenue, by means of worth- less cheques, when he appeared in court last week.

S. Ebbs in police court today. His premises were declared a public place for the period of one year. On a second charge of permit- ting drunkenness on his premises, Brown was fined $50 and costs or one month in jail. Detective Sergeant stated that he had house of the accused about 7:30 p.m. on March 23. There was a num- ber of people in the house and one person was stretched out beside the | kitchen stove "dead drunk." Brown | admitted ownership of a case of | beer which he had not obtained on his permit. Three Minor Accidents Reported to Police Alexander Three minor accidents were re- ported to Oshawa police over the weekend. Property damage in all cases was small and no injuries were sustained. A car driven by Humieuny Teo- dor, 136 Summer Street, collided with the telephone pole on the northeast corner of the intersection of Court Street and Summer Street just after midnight on Saturday. Teodor told police that a car com- ing east on Summer Street forced him to swing wide when he was making a right turn from Court Street onto Summer Street. An estimated $40 damage Was done to the right front fender of a car driven west on Richmond Street West by Rowland Arnold, 272 Gibbons Street, when it came ed on to the street by Bruce Gedges, {85 Arlington Avenue. About $15 as done to the rear of the Gedge car. 3 addin day the rear of the car driven west on King Street East by Marvin Crane, 363 Mary Street, was dama- ged slightly when it was struck | while the car was stopped in the | line of traffic. | Chinese | (Continued from Page 1) holding camouflaged positions north of Hwachon City.

HIGHTOWER Washington, April 9--(AP)--The | United States and Britain today | open a series of talks designed to produce a common Anglo-American policy for meeting the Iranian oil crisis. The U.S. Assistant Secretary of State, George McGhee, is expected to urge the British government, through Ambassador Sir Oliver Franks, to accept the nationaliza- tion of Iranian oil and concentrate on working out a plan for operat- ing the industry under Iranian con- trok Britain, however, is understood to oppose the nationalization move approved by the Iranian parliament, and is reported to be anxious to | block it. This apparent division of views probably will be the major issue | in the talks. | The Iranian fields produce about | 500,000 barrels of refined oil a day | through the world's largest refinery | at Abadan, and. an additional 150,- 000 barrels of crude oil. The fields are controlled by the Anglo-Iranian Oil Company. This company is dominated by the British govern- ment and is a vital source of oil for Britain's navy. The Iranian wells, together with those in nearby Arab countries, also supply most of the oil for western Europe. Because of the constant Russian pressure against Iran, western dip- lomats are concerned that nation- alization of Iran oil might re- sult in a diversion of the fuel from | western industry and defence. { There also is the possibility that | the Iranians may not be able to | operate the industry and will have | to call for foreign help. Since the U.S, is vitally interest- | ed in keeping the oil flowing to- | ! ward the west, and because Ameri- | | can companies control some of the Arab fields, the U.S. has followed a policy of trying to keep Iran sta- bilized and thus minimize oppor- tunities which might permit the Russians to move in. McGhee recently visited the area !and talked with Iranian leaders. He | western powers have no alterna- tive except to deal with the Iran- | ian decision to nationalize the oil- | | fields. | However, it is understood he also | feels and will impress upon the | British authorities that it is not | the legal ownership of the fields | which is of primary importance in 'the present situation, but rather | the continued production and flow | of oil into the European economy. He evidently believes that in spite of the deadlock between the Iran- ian and British governments over | oil negotiations, the Iranians might '- | be willing to keep a British operat- ing company in the fields on a! profit-sharing basis. | ------------------------ 'Second Coal Cargo 'At Oshawa Harbor The Fontana, of Buffalo, tied up | this morning in Oshawa Harbor iand began the work of unloading 'a cargo of coal for the Robert | Dixon Company Limited. In six | | hours the huge conveyor had lift- !ed 4200 tons of coal out of tae | holds of the vessel and by early afternoon - she was ready to pull {out of the harbour. | ~The collier, with a gross weight of 3,800 tons exclusive of cargo and | an over-all length of 360 feet, came ! into the harbor at 6 a.m. after standing off shore all night. She came from Toledo and will begin | the return trip today to Sodus Point about 100 miles across Lake | | Ontario from here. | | Master of the Fontana was George Sweet, of Buffalo and First | | Mate, Oscar Gronwald, of Tona- | | wanda. | Steamer Fire (Continued from Page 1) {sengers and 197 crew members| | aboard, . { | The dead were all passengers, | asphyxiated in the fire ana smoke while the ship was speeding to Tadoussac after the outbreak had been discovered in a linen closet. The other passengers and crew were put ashore safely at that village. Mr. Justice Choquette said the {fire and the loss of "life were not contributed to by any "wrongful act or default" on the part of the owners--Canada Steamship Lines, Ltd. --the ship's master--Capt. C. H. Burch--or any other persons besides the incendiarist. However, he added there were "several individual defaults and omissions" by crew members not going to stations assigned to them. Also, lack of fire-fighting qualifi- cations and training of the crew was "obvious." He made several recommenda- tions for tightening up safety pre- cautions on ships of the Quebec's type, and in a statement accompany- ing the tabling of the report, the Transport Minister said these would receive his department's immediate | attention. | el eesti | 400 FLEE HOMES Minneapolis, April 9 -- (AP) -- | | About 400 persons fled their flooded | {homes in the town of Mankato, | Minn., yesterday as the swollen Minnesota: River swamped streets, | With temperatures down near | | freezing, all but 500 Mankato resi- | dents left their homes under orders : of local officials. | The Red River also was rising. A flood warning was posted at Fargo, | N.D., and Moorhead, Minn., lying on | either side of the river, expected to crest at 26 or 27 feet today. Elsewhere in Minnesota, the com- munity of Marshall counted its losses as the Redwood River ebbed. Damages were estimated at.$1,000,- | 000. Missionary Tells of | ells of Work In Bolivi The week of Missions being con- ducted in the First Baptist Church all' this week got away to a good start Sunday when Miss Alice Clarke, returned missionary . from Bolivia addressed large congrega- tions at both morning and evening services. Speaking from the text, 2 Cor. 1:22 "God has placed His seal upon us and given the guarantee of His Spirit in our hearts" RV. Miss Clarke remarked how easy it was for the Bolivian people to grasp the truth of such a passage be- cause the "seal" and guarantee have such a prominent place in their everyday living. No document is re- garded of value without a seal and No tr nsaction is made without the guarantee being taken into account. Gold Mines Ask Shareholders For Guidance Toronto, April 9--(CP)--Ontario | Business And Markets) and Quebec gold mines, harrassed | by a piece of gold which doesn't | rise, and costs which do are asking shareholders what they should do about it. [ Questions have been prepared by | a committee of operators and will be mailed out by a.large number of companies. It is estimated that they will go to from half to three- quarters of an estimated 200,000 shareholders. The questions are: Are you in favor of Canada's gold mines being given free ac- cess to world markeéts for gold, at home and abroad? | Should we, in order to give sup- port to our employees and mining communities in general, continue to struggle against almost impos- sible odds until our resources are exhausted? Should we, in order to conserve Outlining briefly the history of the Canadian Baptists in Bolivia from the time Rev. A. B. Reekie first entered over 50 years ago till the | present time, Miss Clarke told of the of the Aymara Indians many of whom are now educated and able great change made in the lives | | our valuable ore assets, give con- | sideration to suspension of opera- | tions until we can reopen gold | mines under more favorable condi- | tions? At present, gold mines are paid | $35 an ounce United States cur- | !rency, a price set by the United | to carry on mission work on their | States in the '30s and which has | own. The Bolivian Baptist Union today consists of some 22 Churches and many missions and support en- tirely 9 native pastors. Through the evangelistic fe: vor of many of the Bolivian Young People missions are springing up in many outlying districts even to those bordering the Bolivian Jungle. Churches are at present situated in -La Paz, Oruro, Uochabamba, | Guatajata, Sacaba, Malcorrancho, Liorrancho, Llallagua, and many other populated areas." It is inter- esting to note that at the present time none of the missionaries are pastors in any of the Churches nor do they hold any executive office in the Bolivian Baptits Union. All offices are filled and managed by natives who have been educated and trained in Baptist schools. Miss Clarke referred to the work! | being done by the Baptist Radio | | Station "Southern Cross" at La Paz| and said that letters had been rec- ceived from all over Bolivia, from | Peru, Chile,' Northermr Argentina as | well as Paraguay. Gospel messages | and songs from a nightly program | broadcast in Spanish as well as children stories and music. The station under the direction of Rev. | and Mrs. W. A. Ridgway assisted by | technical way, much good is deing accomplished. Th: vision of 1'; million Aymara Indians yet untouched by gospel places upon Canadian Baptists a grave responsibility as well as chal- lenging the best that lies within all christian people said Miss Clarke in closing.

The boat was grabbed by the current and swept Mainville, however, caught the side of the pumphouse and prevented the boat from plunging down into! the rapids. At midstream, the current again! sucked the boat towards the rapids, but it was stopped by the railing of a submerged bridge. Almost out of the current, an oar was broken and Rivet managed to! hold fast to a lamp post protrud- ing from the water. Stranded for almost half an hour, the council- lors saved themselves by pulling their craft along a cable fence inches below the water At midstream the water is 15 feet deep. MacArthur (Continued from Page 1) | ed him by Gen. Douglas Mac- Arthur's latest policy statement. But they and the White House | itself were silent on what action, | if any, may be taken. Friends of Truman inclined to the view, however, that he might | act quickly to make known his | views, They saw Truman as| caught in a squeeze between home | front supporters of MacArthur, mostly Republicans, and U.S. al- lies who want him to discipline the general for publicly suggesting the use of Chinese nationalist troops against Communist China. Much of the western European press thunderer against MacArthur calling for a crackdown and a clear directive of United Nations aims in Korea. The London Daily Mirror's New York correspondent wrote that MacArthur "is 'defying his own country's government and also other United Nations governments by making policy statements of his own." A British Foreign office spokes- man denied in London that there is any split between the two big powers over Korean policy. He said that British and American objec- tives "remain the same." France Opposed Paris, April 9--(AP) France lined up with Britain today in op- posing Gen. Douglas MacArthur's proposal for use of Chiang Kai- Shek"s troops by the United Na- tions in an effort to win the war | in Korea.

In re- | | cent years the tendency has been [for it to go to the United States, | which is willing to buy it. | | The committee issued a state- ment with the quéstions. | | { Equal Pay Act (Continued from Page 3) | said, was because the electors of | Canada did not put enough C.C.F. | members in the House of Com- mons in 1949. Turning to the Workmen's Com- | pensation Act, Mr. Jolliffe said the | amendments to the Act passed by |the provincial government were very disappointing to the C.C.F. party "but we welcomed them as far as they went." Justice Roach Commended The speaker pointed out that Mr. Justice Roach had recommended 16 changes in the Act. "He done a good job throuch- : 1 | young people of the La Paz church! out and most of his recommenda= lis said to bé convinced that the |is filling a long felt need in rb were what we nave been | community and while there are as | after for many years," Mr. Jol- | yet some, difficulties presented in a|liffe stated, "The government has accepted five recommendations of | the Roach report and not the most important ones. Some of the most important ones will have to wait. The government is afraid to say no to the Roach report." Referring to rent controls, he said, he had begged the govern- ment to prepare suitable measures two years ago, but that nothing | | had been done until the last ses- | sion of the legislature. The government has clamped on rent controls to take effect when the federal government abandons the field. | Mr. Jolliffe termed the rent con- {trol bill a "blank cheque" giving | the government power to enact any rent control measures they feel fit. The C.C.F. leader charged that | the Ontario government was "in- competent" and maintained that Premier Frost was carrying the burden for all but two or three heads of departments. Stressing that the C.C.F. party | was needed in Canada more than ever before, Mr. Jolliffe said from 11929 to 1939 the people of Canada | saw the depression side of a coin and that they are now selling the side of "reckless, selfish, expansion of inflation". He pointed out that the great corporations of the United States and Canada are making the biggest profits ever and sacrificing noth- | ing. "Those that are making the sa- crifices today are the people that | buy the groceries." he said. Riding Seen Stronghold At the outset, the popular C.C.F. { leader said he looked to Ontario | Riding as one of the strongholds | of the Ontario C.C.F. movement. | "Ontario Riding's reputation is | { very well known throughout the | whole C.C.F. movement in Ontario," | he stated. ol The opposition leader predicted | that Arthur Williams, C.C.F. federal | candidate for Ontario riding in the | | next election would be the next | ding representative at Ottawa, | Mr. Jolliffe said the highest co- | operation and team work existed | among the 21 C.C.F. members of | the provincial legislature and "we | are proud to have Tommy Thomas | (M.P.P. for Ontario Riding) with | us. He is respected by all sides of | the House. We have great faith in | him". : | The speaker was of the opinion | that the Ontario Liberal leader would not wish to run against Mr. Thomas. Donald McDonald, national | treasurer of the C.C.F. party, | stressed that socialism is no longer a theory but a definite practice. He cited the case of the Saskat- chiewan government which is doing | a good job in bringing about social | reforms and he said although the C.CF. is not in power in all the provinces of the Dominion its pro- gram has had a "terrific influ- ence" on the economic and poli- tical life of the country. Mr. Mac- | Donald said a new society is being built around the people of Can- | ada ecause of the influence of the | C.C:F.

Perhaps it is not exactly new, but it has been brought to a new precision largely through things learned during the war. It is the airplane and its camera and a host of scientific develop- ments with which to read the meaning of what they reveal. What they do was dramatized re- cently at the Toronto plant of Photographic Survey Corporation, Ltd, on the occasion of the com- pletion of a five-year contract for the Ontario Government, The company presented Hon. H. R. Scott, Ontario Minister of Lands and Forests, with the final map sheet of a survey of 127472 square miles of Ontario Northland.

Then, to com=~ plete the flourish, the company flew Mr, Scott home to Peterbor- ough in one of its helicopters. Before all this took place, & party of lands and forests per- sonnel and newspaper men were taken through the plant and shown how the work in the air is inter- preted. It was precision stuff, and technical, but the end result deter- mined, with reasonable accuracy, the following: The wealth of a timber stand. the hydro-electric potentialities of rivers and streams; data which will guide farmers in rotation of crops. And, becaus~ the airplane also has equipment to measure magnetic variations of the ground over which it flies, something is learned of what may be found deep down un- derground. For instance, around Marmora, | in" Egsterh Ontario, where known iron ore now is being explored, the magnetic recordings show where | search should be made for other possible iron bodies. Sometimes geologic formations of interest to the prospector are shown in places of groundwork have shown nothing. A company publication illustrates the time-saving as follows: "Although it has taken two gen- erations to compile a forest inven- tory of Ontario, 90 per cent of the work has been completed in the last. four years, using air photo- graphy .and photogrammetry." Not that the airplane displaces the man on the ground--far from it. But it saves his time. It tells him where to look. It not only points a finger at a forest, water power or likely mineral territory, but it shows the best way to get | into it and the best way to bring its resources out. months and years.
