Duncan MacLean of St. George's Anglican Church con- ducted the funeral services at the Armstrong Funeral Home at 3.30 p.m. yesterday of Mrs. David "Tuesday last. The pallbearers were R. Flin. f, R. Spratt, W. Dowe, G. Gar- rard, K. Adams and A. Teno. Interment was in the Oshawa Union Cemetery. FUNERAL OF WILLIAM JOHN HELE The funeral service was held from the Armstrong Funeral MAcerse neevee TT~11 AUWIL AL 11 (Continued from Page 1) city's population had risen to over 40,000. This meant increased ser- vices and administration and, of course, increased costs for educa- tion and other .. He recalled that in his inaugural address this year he stressed econ- omy. That policy had been carried out as much as was feasible, he said, When budgets were brought in at the beginning of the year it looked as though there was going to be an eleven mill rise in the tax rate. This was pared to seven. Later, 'during the question period Mayor Starr sald that he thought the present rate could be main- tained next year. Alderman Dafoe differed. He thought it more like- ly to be 50 mills. The city was generally in excel- lent financial position, Mayor Starr said. Thi® was shown by the fact that it was able to get rid of one and a third million of its dehen- tures in a week in spite of a shaky market. Alderman Dafoe spoke briefly. He Was opposing the Mayor, he sald, because he did not think the policy being pursued was in the best interests of the majority of the people. He would, if elected, he said, devote all his time to the job, give strong leadership, say no with finality to hairbrained schemés and do away with irre- sponsible plunging. A synthesis of aldermanic address- es in the order in which they were called is as follows: GORDON ATTERSLEY . "r would favor a plebiscite to settle the question of the ward sys- tem for Oshawa. I have been ac- tive in Oshawa life and feel that I could serve you well" MRS. EVELYN BATEMAN "Children's Ald Society costs are away up and it behooves us to seek revision of the agreement between the county, the city and the CAS. I can't understand also why we are *keeping up that great plant down here for five or six children and for six months there have been no more there." JOHN BLACK "It sems to me that only men of advanced union experience are able to make decisions in bodies like the Council with fairness and with- out discrimination. I think also there should be a study of Oshawa's traffic hasards." NORMAN DOWN "I am a farmer and come from a family of farmers and I think that I have had sufficient experience to serve you well. I notice, after making enquiries that there are 6,400 acres of farm land now In the city through annexation. I think this area deserves represen- tation and believe myself qualified to serve in that capacity." JOHN DYER "This is my third call. I have no axe to grind and no special inter- ests to serve. I know one thing and that is that you can't successfully run a business or a city by spend- ing more than you receive." ORVILLE EAGLE "Again ladies and gentlemen I am seeking your vote on Monday next. I feel that my experience in th2 life of the city can be of value on City Council." CEPHAS GAY "1 opposed the granting of a horsemeat license and I think I was the only one on City Council who did. I¢ seems a funny thing to me to see a demonstration of demo- cracy such as we had when the Prince and Princess were here and then just leave our shores and have a horsemeat license granted. There are thousands and thousands of cattle in this country and we are eating horses. It isn't right. I again offer my services and I be- lieve we need experienced men on City Council" CLIFFORD HARMAN "The Committee which I led this year saw 182 new lights installed this year and 68 new hydrants, most of them in the newly annexed areas. I again am offering my ser- vices to the City I love." RAE HALLIDAY "In my opinion Oshawa had one of the best City Councils this year. It is true that many of the annexed areas are paying for stredts, sewers and conveniences that they do not have. I, for one, will try in the next year to"see that they get hem as soon as possible." WILLIAM HARMER "1 am here especially to repre- sent the newly annexed areas. Tax- es there are up fifty per cent and they have got nothing for it. | Lighting is badly needed there. liam John Heal who passed away on Tuesday. Rev. L. D. Begg, minister of First Baptist Church, officiated. The pallbearers were F. Smith, J. Smith, W. Tonkin, G. Clarke, H. White and A. Hartshorn. Interment was in' the Oshawa Union Cemetery.

LOCK "I do not subscribe to the im- pression that the city is heading for a period of financial distress. This city is suffering from growing pains and along with expansion comes increased costs for services and capital expenditures. However our ability to meet our obligations is beyond question. However the possibility of a general recession is, of course, always a factor." JOHN E. MOTLEY "The men you elect must be men of vision, courage and resource. The first consideration in each case must be the taxpayer." HAYWARD MURDOCH "With the advent of a portion of East Whitby Township scope was given for the establishment of a Traffic Committee on the City Council. I have found that solu- tion of Oshawa's traffic problems is like finding a needle in a hay- stack. However I believe one an- swer would be, to get relief from the government. This city pays be- tween $400,000 and $500,000 in gas- oline taxes and I doubt very much if we get $50,000 back." JACK NAYLOR "During the past year I was on the Council of the CRA, the CAS and the Welfare Board. I was elect- ed to the vice-chairmanship of the Fire Protection and City Property Committee. In addition I helped in the preparation of two important reports, both of which took a lot of research, At the municipal level it seems to me that real property is overloaded and help is badly needed from other sources." WILLIAM PETERS "Present taxes in Oshawa are terrific and every year they are go- ing up. It has got to be stopped. | The only thing to do is watch the spending. One mistake the Council has made is having so many dif- ferent buildings for so many differ- ent services, They should have police and city hall, for example, in one building." . WESLEY POWERS "I realize that many things are needed in the annexed areas and I intend to see that they get them. Economy should be exercised al- though there are certain things which have to be done. Another thing that I have realized is that there is a discrepancy in the Osh- awa assessmient." HERBERT ROBINSON "1951 has been a busy year and I feel that I have carried my share of the load. I have been Chairman of the Building Committee and be- lieve me I have been busy. I have been assured today that the police station will be ready by June 1 and I am also - assured that the contract price of $114,000 will be adhered to. There will be no ex- tras." FRANK STIRTEVANT "After a great deal of deep thought and a great deal of per- suasion I have finally consented to allow my name to go before the electors for the position of alder- man. The City of Oshawa is big business and T think there should be a number of business men -- men who are proven financlers." NORVILLE SWEET "I will endeavour to serve to the fullest extent all citizens regardless of religion, color or creed." ARTHUR TURNER "I am not going to make promise es. All I will say is that I will serve you to the best of my ability." JOSEPH VICTOR "One good turn deserves another and I have a real desire to serve the community which has been so -good to me." STUDIO ROBBED Police reported a break-in last night at Campbell's Studio, 26 Sim- coe Street South, of which Ed- ward Pankhurst is manager. The office was ransacked. sometime be- tween 68 p.m. last night and 9 a.m/ this morning, and approximate] $50 was taken from the till. Poljce had no details as to how break-in was effected. 'guilty to both charges, he heard 'eye view of the whole of Oshawa Forbidden to Hold License Six Months Two charges, namely of care- less driving and of driving with- out an operator's license, brought Mervyn Thursby, 17," 541 Grier- son 'Street, into Magistrate's Court this morning. Pleading Magistrate Frank 8S. Ebbs. fine him $25 and costs or one month on the first, and $10 and costs or 10 days on the second charge. Chief of Police Owen D. Friend read to the court the report made by P.C. William Cairney on the November 28 accident at the cor- ner of Masson and Hillcroft Streets, in which one person had been injured. The car driven by Thursby had come south on Masson Street, and rounding the corner on to Hillcroft, had hurdl- ed the sidewalk, and proceeding for 113 feet across lawns and driveways had struck No. 54. A passenger in the car, Glenn McLaughlin, 20, had been remov- ed to hospital with injuries. Accused's brother appeared in court to say this was the first time the youth had ever been in trouble, or even in a car, for that matter. Magistrate Ebbs, in passing sen- tence, sald that it was a very seri- ous thing to be driving without a license, and the boy was fortunate he hadn't hit anybody. He for- bade accused from holding a li- cense for a period of six months. Steeplejack (Continued from Page 1) tage point he got a true bird's and could see past Whitby on the horizon. At noon he climbed from the vane, swung down two ladders which lean against the 80-foot high steeple and into the bell chamber. From there he had to climb down four more ladders tp get to the church gallery. 'That is just to get lunch. In this business we don't believe in leaving our tools behind," said Art. He keeps his pockets filled with materials he might need on the job. : Trans-Canada Steeplejacks, who will shortly be . publicised in nation-wide articles, have been working on the steeple for five weeks and they expect to remain on the job for another 11 days. ( Art Greer knows Simcoe Street United Church's steeple of old -- | he was working on it seven years | ago when he painted it. On this visit he has re-shingled steeple. the KEEP OPEN MIND Although he pleaded not guilty to a careless driving charge in po- lice court this morning, David Mc- Rae, Highland Creek, took the pre- caution of asking Magistrate F. 8S. Ebbs what would be the maximum fine if he were convicted. He also wanted to know whether he should bring currency or a certified cheque. The bench intimated that the for- mer would do nicely, but that until the evidence had been heard, the court would keep an open mind as to the size of the fine. The case was remanded to December 12, STOCK SPLIT PLANNED Montreal (CP). -- At a meeting yesterday of the directors of On- tario Steel Products Co. Ltd., it was decided to subdivide the com- mon stock on a basis of five-for-one subject to approval of the shate- holders. There will be a meeting of the shareholders on Jan. 24. BIG INDUSTRY Wool became a valuable com- modity in international trade in the 14th and 15th centuries. World Police (Continued from Page 1) - fumbling that was evident when North Korea struck at South Ko- rea, and to ensure that no Rus- sian veto can stop U.N. action against any future aggressor. At the start of the Korean war, Rus- sia was in the midst of a general walkout from the U.N. over the question of Chinese Communist membership. Thus the security council at the time was free to go ahead with its anti - aggression pland. But now Russia is back in its security council seat. So there is a plan to allow the U.N. assembly -- where there is no veto -- to set up any necessary executive military authority to fight aggression. In the Korean war, the United States was author- ized by the security council to direct the. U.N. fighting forces, thus the Korean unified command is in effect the United States gov- ernment. When the U.N. was first set up it was planned that all the big powers would contribute to an in- ternational army under the secur- ity council to defend the peace. But in almost six years there has been no agreement between east and west on how such an army should be formed. Some U.N. officials see in the new collective measures plans a means whereby the U.N. will be- come the world security body orig- inally visualized. U.N. Assembly (Continued from Page 1) general expectation was that they would repor@ next Monday that they have been unable to com- promise rival disarmament plans. The assembly already had voted Nov. 13 not to discuss the Chinese representation issue at this session. But acting president Sir Gladwyn Jebb of Britain allowed it to be brought up today: "because this matter raises deep feelings on both sides." Also in the U.N. tpday, Russia complained to the security coun- cil that the U.S. has failed to an- swer a Soviet note charging that a U.S. navy plane violated Russian territority near Vladivostok. The United States already has charged that the plane--missing since Nov. 6--was attacked with- out warning by Soviet fighter craft over international waters. Ford Strike (Continued from Page 1) without any statement from either side or a date set for another con- ference. The strike started over the dis- missal of 26 men who, the com- pany said, incited and took part in a wildcat walkout last Thurs- day. The union has demanded the reinstatement of the men but the company has stood firm on its in- sistence that the firings be sub- mitted to arbitration. The company has héld to the stand that wildcat walkouts and any other unauthorized work stop- pages must end once and for all. It says there have been 34 such stoppages since May, 1950. The wildcat walkout Thursday was in protest over the delay in receiving a conciliation board re- port on a contract and wage dis- pute that has dragged on since last May. The report has since been handed down but it has been pushed into the background by the strike. No evidence has been forthcom- ing that the company is ready to work eut a compromise on the . Observers here feel t the company will fight the issue even if the plant should be tied up for some time. 4ing Club has secured his commex- Oshawa And. | hau. 4 PETERBOROUGH VISIT Five planes from Peterborough dropped in at the Oshawa Airport on Sunday last.

It is understood he had applied to TCA and had a successful interview. DEER SUICIDES Lindsay -- George Bagshaw of Sunderland had parked his auto on the edge of the highway. He was looking at a deer in a field when suddenly another deer crashed in- to his car and fell dead as a result of the impact. REPEAL CLOSING BY-LAW The Bowmanville Council this week unanimously passed a by-law repealing the Saturday night clos- ing by-law for grocers and butch- | ers which allows them to keep! their shops open. FIND PAPER BURNING An 8.30 call yesterday took head- quariers firemen to the home of Harry Morton, 142% Simcoe Street Soutn, where they found some pa- per on fire in a passageway lead- ing to an upstairs apartment, The blaze was quickly extinguished. Firemen termed it more a smoke scare than anything. CHRISTMAS BONUS As its last meeting the board of directors of the Ontario County Flying Club decided to give a Christmas bonus to all the club's licenses pilots by reducing the re- gular flying rates on Aeroncas and Cruiser by 20 per cent. This ap- plies to solo flying only, and for the balance of December. WRONG RESIDENCE Included among the "thumbnail" sketches of municipal candidates, which appeared in yesterday's is- sue of The Times-Gazette, was one of John M. Black in which his ad- dress was given as Bonnibrae Point. This was an error. Mr. Black has lived at 106 Albert Street for a number of years. HIKE BURIAL COSTS Cost of plots at Bowmanville Cemetery, effective Jan. 1, 1951, have been increased as follows: old New Price Price ive 318 Single grave plot Two grave plot .. Three grave plot Six grave plot TRUCK DAMAGED A minor accident took place on Simcoe Street North, opposite No. 426, about 8.15 on Wednesday morning. A truck driven by Joseph driven by Maxwell E. Coffey, 63 Colborne Street East, were in coi- lision at that point. Police report ed that the truck had its right front fender damaged, as well as a headlight and the grille. There was no damage to the car. Both vehicles were insured. WIN MANY PRIZES J. FP. Anderson and Sons, who operate apiaries at Oshawa, Ailsa Craig and Belleville, have shown their honey at the CNE, Royal Winter Fair and London, Ontario. this fall with the result that they won 10 prizes among which were six firsts, one second, one third, one fourth and one seventh. Mr. Anderson is assisted in the busi- ness by his two sons Harold and Roy, who live on Ritson Road North. Mr. Anderson, who now lives in Ailsa Craig and formerly in Oshawa, states there was a good crop of honey this year which was good quality. SCOTTISH RITE ELECTION B. J. Logan was elected presi- dent of the Oshawa Scottish Rite Club for 1952 at a meeting of the Club held last night. Other officers elected at the social gathering dent, Cyril Deyo as secretary- treasurer, and J. Jackson, C. M. Wallace and E. N. Lewis as direc- tors. A talk on Mexico was given to the Club by the Rev. John Rid- dell, of Port Perry. APPEAL DISMISSED The Court of Appeal at Osgoode Hall has dismissed the appeal of Ralph Carey of Port Hope against his conviction and sentence of 20 years on a charge of rape. Bino, 104 Athol Street, and a car Pearl Harbor (Continued fiom Page b) {had time to reflect in the last six years of peace.

"If, for the defence of Japan, my service is needed again, I am ready to answer the call at any moment." GIVE SUBS CREDIT Los Angeles (AP) -- A captured Japanese book, distributed private- ly to high Japanese officials in 1042, credits five midget submar- ines with'much of the Pearl Har- bor destruction. Most American accounts of the disaster list the subs' role as minor compared with that of the attack- ing air raiders. Nine officers manned the five subs. They are' revered as "hero- gods" in the book, much of which {quotes Capt. Hideo Hiraide, chief of the navy press section of im- perial Japanese headquarters. The book leaves two questions unanswer- ed -- how big the subs weré and whether each carried more than one torpedo.
