He was in his 77th year. A son of the late Mr. and Mrs. william Rose Crummey, the de- ceased was born in Newfoundland on August 10, 1875. Until his re- tirement in 1935 he had heen a public school teacher all his work- ing life. His career had been in many respects remarkable and he exerted a great deal of influence upon his pupils. Of one of his classes of eight pupils, five entered the ministry and three latér be- came medical doctors. * Coming to Oshawa four years ago from Stellarton, N.S, Mr. Crum- mey was a member of King Street United Church. Predeceased by his first wife, the former Ellen Elizabeth Oakley, in 1940, he is survived by his present wife, the farmer Clara Godden MacLean; two sons, Dr. C.B. Crum- mey of Mount Dennis and Major C. W. Crummey of the Canadian Ar- my Dental Corps; a stepdaughter, Mary MacLean and a stepson, John MacLean. Also surviving are a sister, Mrs. Elizabeth Robbins of St. Johns, Newfoundland; three brothers, Ern- est Crummey of Toronto; Wilbur of Boston, Mass, and Richard Crummey of St. Johns, dren. Newfoundland, and five grandchil- Rev. M. A. Bury, minister of King Street United Church, will conduct the funeral 'service at the Arm- strong Funeral Home at 830 p.m. today. Interment will be in Spring- ville Cemetery at Stellarton, NS, on Friday. FUNERAL OF WILLIAM F, C. NASH The funeral service took place at St. George's Anglican Chugch, Osh- awa, yesterday for William F. C. ' Nash, who died in Oshawa General Hospital on Friday. Canon D. M. Rose conducted the service and the pallbearers were W. Larimer, J. Heath, J. Davenport, R. Wotten, A. Bryant and D. Catton. Interment took place in Union Cemetery. To Continue Floor Price For Produce Ottawa (CP) -- Continuance in 1952 of government floor prices for eggs and bacon was announced to the Commons yesterday by Agri- culture Minister Gardiner. He said the government will continue to buy any eggs offered at the year - end at cents a dozen for grade A' delivered in Montreal and bacon Wiltshire sides at $32.50 a hundredweight. " Mr. Gardiner made his an - nouncement as the Chamber con- sidered legislation, later adopted, to establish an agricultural pro- ducts board to handle government bulk purchasing of farm products. He sald the board, already in existence by virtue of emergency powers, will not operate on a day- 'to - day basis of buying and sell- ing. Rather, it will be available to buy farm ce if, for example, the government needs them to fill a bulk contract for a foreign government. Opposition members used the legislation as the basis for a cam- paign urging the government to establish parity. prices for farm products or at least raise existing floor prices. This drive led to a formal division as the Chamber voted 97 fo 38 in support of Speaker Ross Macdonald when he. ruled out of ing that the government boost the floor prices. Dealing with floor prices, Mr. Gardiner said the government has had no pork products offered to it at the support price since market prices are above that level. Under its egg - support program, ft offers to buy any grade "A" elgs remaining in storage at Montreal at the year - end. No one had offered eggs to the govern- ment at that price. : The board would not have ths right to requisition farm products or make farmers uy it. dear Fine Youthful Drivers In Speeding Case A cavalcade of three or four mo- torcycles and a car tore along Dun- das Street East in Whitby about 1 a.m. on December 4, and as a result two youthful drivers were in Whit- by police court this morning on charges of speeding. Joseph Bobac, 14% Bond Street Bast, Oshawa, and Ronald F. Poole, of Taunton, drivers of the car and one of the motorcycles in question, pleaded guilty to the charge, and each received from Magistrate F. 8S. Ebbs a fine of $25 and costs or 10 days. OPP Constable J. N. Pocock told the court how he had chased the group east along the main street during the wee sma' hours, between the Four Corners and the subway. Passing the car, he'd signalled it to halt with the stop light of his cruiser, having previously taken its number. ¢ Then, gunning the cruiser up to around 65 miles an hour, he had overtaken the leader of the motor- cyclists, the accused Poole, and ar- rested him for speeding. Returning .|to the spot where he had signalled Bobac to halt, he found this ac- cused had turned around and made his escape with the other motor- cyclists, Having pleaded guilty to the charge, Bobac insisted he had not been doing 56 m.ph. as the con- stable charged, although he had '| exceeded the speed limit. His Wor- ship said the fine wouki stand. He also added that motorcyclists needn't expect they could tear through town at that speed in the middle of the night, Bogus Ballots Found In City After Voting Port Arthur, Ont. (CP) The mystery of the fake ballots kept Port Arthur agog today. City council, perturbed over the counterfeit mayoralty ballots found blowing about in the streets last week, decided last night that ballot boxes used in the Dec. 10 opened and examined. In the election C. W. Cox, a former mayor, was elected over Mayor Fred Robinson with a majority of 113. The confusion over <the fake bal- lots deepened, with Mayor-elect Cox saying yesterday he thought the whole thing was a "gigantic hoax." However Harold Stanworth, who has printed civic election bal- lots here for 35 years, said Sunday night that the fakes "might pos- sibly have been waste" used to clean the type on which the bal- lots were printed. Detective O. Harti also told coun- cil that ballots made in testing the printing machine before the re- gular run were crumpled and thrown into a refuse box which had been placed outside the print ing ship Dec. 11. The seven forms found, five of them counterfeit, also were crumpled. But Mayor Robinson asserted that the five bogus ballots were found on the morning before the re- fuse box reached the street. In other comment, Alderman Russell Brown said he had found one sub- division where there were more ballots in the box than the number of persons who voted. IRAN VOTING ON ACTIVITIES OFMOSSADEGH Tehran (AP) -- National elec- tions began today in Iran amid high political tensions that have touched off repeated bloody riots and death threats in recent weeks, Premier Mohammed Mossadegh and his nationalist followers were confident of winning on Mossa - degh's reputation as a national hero who defied foreign "enemies" and took over the British-owned Anglo-Iranian Oil Company. Voting is for the 136 seats in the Majlis (lower house of par- liament), They select a premier. Mossadegh himself is not an elec- tion candidate. Under the consti- tution, he could not be premier or hold other office if he were a member of the Majlis. i Balloting is spotted over the country at different times and it takes several days to complete the voting and the count. Balloting began today ih northern provinces on the Soviet border and in Tehran. Shunter Accidents Again In Pairs As is their wont, accidents in- volving Oshawa Railway shunters, tame in pairs again yesterday. About 1225 pm. motorist Ed- mund K. Weber, 98 Lasallé Avenue, came into collision with a shunter at the Wilkinson Avenue railway crossing, the conductor being Rob- ert Davies of Oshawa, Car damage was to grilleand fenders, and, as usual, the shunter came well out of it--damage nil. The other collision came about at the Mary Street crossing, around 530 p.m. yesterday. This shunten with conductor George Lowe of 92 King Street West and motorman Pete Sobil of Taunton in charge, hit a car owned and driven by Murray Franklin, R, R. 2, Port Perry, damaging its left front fen- der, hood, radiator, and left front door. According to the police re- port, a witness, Charles Walter, who happens to be a General Mo- tors Limited constable, said a prakeman wz: at the creving, waving his lantern. The report also : Was shippery, and the traffic heavy, municipal elections should be; I Canal Project Advancing On Paper Vienna -- The gigantic Danube- Black Sea Canal project which the Romanian Govt. launched some 2% years ago, is, on paper, nearing the halfway mark. Origin- ally scheduled to finish in 1955, the authorities now have stated that it is expected the work will be com- pleted "far sooner." Ten days later they announced the ousting of the trade union committee responsible for super- vising operations. ; 8ix charges were brought against it: (1) It had infringed the rule of "workers' democracy" and disorganized the work of the unions on the project; (2) it had | ignored instructions from the higher trade union organs; (3) it had liquidated a local elected com- mittee in order to get control itself; (4) it has smotnered per- sonal initiative and criticism; (5) it had embezzled union funds; (6) had turned the union premises in- to a saloon and an establishment for "convivial evenings." PAPERS CHARGE FRAUD The culprits were sent to jail and the newspapers, which 10 days | earlier had been loud in praise of the progress being made in building the canal, were instructed to declare that "the class foe had once again tried to deal a blow at trade union work through the em- ployment of dishonest and deca-| dent elements which had found their way into the ranks of the working class." Viata Sindicala, the trade un- ion paper, added: "Now, when the class foe, with the agents of Am- erican and British imperialism, are more determined than ever | trying to undermine our peaceful | work, . . . it is our duty to be more | vigilant than ever in foiling the attempts of the foe." | The heinous nature of the crime was enhanced by the fact that be- tween the lines of the official en-| comiums about the progress of the project there is an undercurrent showing that the "hundreds and thousands" of ordinary workers have not been getting enough io] eat. The problem of accommodation, said one writer, 'has been largely solved." 'Then, in his next para- graph he went on: "It has not been possible however, to solve the problem of food in the same way." Food, he explained, has to be ob- tained almost entirely from other parts of the country because the Dobruja, where the canal is situ- Oshawa Rotary Club Children's Party Huge Success The climax of the evening came with the distribution of gifts.

Business And Markets ated 'produces much too little." An especially difficult problem, he admitted, was that of vege- tables, fats and meat. "In vege- tables alone, for example, 17,000 tons were needed. This meant 1,700 trucks for transport and a large purchasing network through- out the country, resulting in de- lays and high prices." But for the fact that there is an Iron Curtain, they might have found it worth while to see what happens in New: York and London where far more vegetables are handled every day. But as things are, the canal authorities had to rely on the timely aid and advice of the brotherly Soviet Union. SOVIET MACHINES USED According to another newspaper, Viata Capitalei, almost 450 vol- umes have been specially trans- lated from the Russian language 'so far" for the use of the experts under whose care the canal is be- ing built. Much of the machinery used is also of Soviet origin, including an excavator using "hydraulic-me- chanical power," the first of its kind ever seen in\Romania. As planned, the canal project in- cludes not only a waterway ,which reduces the distance between the Danube at Cerpavoda to the sea from 350 kilometers (about 233 miles) to 70 kilometers, but also the reclamation of the Dobruja which at present is mostly either swamp or plantless desert con- tinually eroded by dust storms. It involved the building of a large number of irrigation chan- nels, the formation of many arti- ficial lakes, and the planting of tree belts to break the force of the wind. Altogether it affects some 17,500 hectares (about 43,750 acres). To begin with, the work of ex- cavating was done almost entirely by hand. But now it is partly me- chanized, thanks to the help of the, Soviet machines. The canal bed is to be from 175 to 200 yards wide. It is difficult to estimate how much land actually has been re- claiméd so far. The official ac- counts speaks of the "systematiza- ton" of agricultural land having been carried out over an area of 70,000 acres. This certainly does not mean that the whole area has been planted because then the sup- ply of vegetables would no longer be a problem, Another account mentions the planting of "gardens" on about 5,000 acres and the inauguration of a special agricultural research station on "'a large area' at Med- gidia. Yet another says the farms were ftteaning 2,000 hogs last sum- mer and hoped to fatten another 2,000 before the end of the year.

By FORBES RHUDE i Canadian Press Business Editor Items from here and there: The current monthly review of the Bank of Nova Scotia says that Canadian cash farm income this year will be a record, probably at least 20 per cent above last year's estimate of $2,237,000,000. While giving a generally-optimis- tic picture, the review sees possi- bilities of problems in marketing of lower grades of wheat if crops next year shoiild be good, both in Canada and other exporting coun- tries.

Million Dollar Fire Hiis Supply Of Smokes And Beer Corner Brook, Nfld. (CP) -- A roaring waterfront fire today gutted a big warehouse loaded wita cigarets and beer and loss was estimated at $1 million. Fanned by a 30-mile-an-hour wind, the blaze raced through the warehouse and an office building of the A. E. Hickman Company, Limited, before firemen held it in check. For a time it threatened a nearby warehouse, the Canacian National Railways station and a machine shop and garage. Huge banks of black smoke rolled skyward as the flames reached 2100 rubber tires and $40, 000 worth of bonded cigarets.

They piled even higher in the country. A similar, less severe local snow storm hit the Buffalo area. About five inches had fallen in the city by evening and more than two feet in the southern suburbs. were late for work as street-car and motor traffic crawled along streets buried under inches of slushy snow. Bus traffic in and out of the city was off schedule but train service was reported almost normal. Air traffic was not inter- rupted despite low visibility. The provincial Department of Highways reported driving condi- tions treacherous but said all high- ways were open with snowplows working through the night. Visibil- ity along rural roads was. termed only "fair," with conditions poorest north and west of Toronto. In eastern Ontario, more. than seven inches of snow fell in two hours this morning as the storm moved from west to east across the province. This was the forecast: "The storm area will move out. of the province tonight and frigid air will again dominate the fore- cast regions. Tuesday evening will see another snow area moving in- to the Windsor region with slowly moderating temperatures through- out southwestern sections." Watertown, N.Y.

R, Mainguy said yesterday. The admiral, who this month took over command of the RCN and who two years ago wrote the '"Mainguy report" on the navy's internal problems, said at a con- ference in the parliamentary press gallery that he, as chief of the naval staff, is "against" any RCN activity or development which does not have to do with anti-sub- marine work of the defence of "harbors. The admiral said in a speech recently that there was no reason why Canada should not become the anti-sub authority of the allied powers. At yesterday's conference, he said Canada's naval role had been discussed at NA1O coniercnces, and it was generally. considered that Canada's main responsioility - is anti-submarine work. He also said that the navy, now about 12,000 strong, plans to ex- pand to about 21,00, and that the pace will be geared with the pro- duction of 14 anti-submarine es- cort vessels. 1652 PROGRAM . Reviewing the navy's needs an plans for 1952, the admiral said: - 1 The navy will seek to bore row submarines irom either bri- tain or the United States and carry out exercises with anti-sub escort vessels and the carrier Magnificent and her aircraft, pre- ferably with forces of other NATO nations and similar to exercises conducted in the Mediterranean this year. 2. More exercises will be car- ried out on minesweeping opera- tions as the navy gets delivery of new minesweepers, with a view to studying the most up-to-date form of port defence. 3. Shipbuilding programs started in previous years will bring fruit, with four more of the new anti-sub escort vessels being launched and the coastal mine- sweeper program of 14 vessels be- ing completed. In addition, the navy's Arctic patrol vessel, HMCS Labrador, will be completed. Equipped with helicopters, it is the first ship ofits type to be ordered by the RCN, and will be used as part of a navy plan "to know more about the north." - 4. In adaition, a number of small auxiliary craft are being completed, and older ships are be- ing "modernized" in line with the anti-sub policy. 5. HMCS Quebec, will be com- missioned early in the new year as Canada's second cruiser, mainly for training purposes. The other cruiser, HMCS Ontario, will continue to be based at Esqui- malt, B.C., and also be used for training.
