+ 1. H. ORMISTON Editor and Manager PHONE 703 a WHITBY AND DISTRICT NEWS h - 4 THE DAILY TIMES-GAZETTE, Thursday, March 26, 1953 Progressing Well New Park Project With Coronation Day just over two months away, plans are now being completed for the formal opening of Coronation Park, Whit- by's new sports field, located west of Hillcrest Public School. At a meeting next Monday even- ning final plans will be completed and approval of committees ob- tained. An estimate of the total actual cost of nstruction ill then be available' If the weather is dry, the Racher Construction Company will complete the level- ling work within about two weeks. At the last meeting of the Sports Field Committee plans were ap- proved for erection of gates at the ark to commemorate Coronation y and the official opening of the park. Bill Winters has consent- ed to do the stone work, Stafford Brothers, the plague and Mr. Ed- wards will do the iron work. At the completion of the project, a permanent committee will be set up to administer the field, thus putting no obligation upon the municipality. The committee already has $2.- 200 in its account and plans to raise the balance required shortly. A complete canvass of the town will be undertaken shortly. Tenta- tive financial plans include a tag day, a street carnival and pos- sibly other events. The civic Coronation Committee has given the Sports Field Com- mittee rights to operate a porta- ple refreshment booth on June 2, with all proceeds to go to Corona- tion Par Gordon Hawes, chairman of the Coronation Park project, has been invited by Legion President Harold Augustus, to address the monthly meeting of the Legion for the pur- pose of informing that organiza- tion on the project and to ask their support. : Another item of interest concern- ing the Park, is that Whitby fire- men are conducting a draw, pro- ceeds of which will be turned over to Coronation Park. Bad Record No Help To Musical Thief In and out of jail for the past 23 years (mostly in) William Sims, 37, of Toronto and Corbett's Point esterday had six months added 5 a sentence he is now serving. He had defrauded Whitby and Osh- awa merchants. "I don't believe this man's evi- dence in any shape or form," said Judge F. J. MacRae. "He is just a regular nuisance." Turning to Sims' counsel, Manny Frankel of Toronto, His Honor said: "Is there anything you can say in his favor?" "Well, he did nursery work and put a nice lawn in my home once "' responded Mr. Frankel. "I am surprised he hasn't been in Kingston before now," said Act- ing Crown Attorney Russell Hum- phreys reading the record of Sims, alias W. Atkinson, a name by which he sought to escape the stig- ma of his prison record. Since April 10, 1930, Sims has been in trouble in many parts of Ontario. Usually for false pre- tences but his record also includes seduction, theft, skipping bail, con- tributing to juvenile delinquency and fraud. He is also known to the courts as William Burgess. Now under sentence until Oc- tober 4, 1953 the six months given yesterday will be added to that. At the same time, on a second conviction, he was given six month concurrent. 8ims was charged with theft of a radio and guitar, the property of Lloyd S. Palmer of the Whitby Record Bar. He was secondly charged with obtaining $60 by means of a worthless cheque from Joseph Flyn, manager of the Osh- awa Sports Haven. Palmer testified that he had seen Sims at Corbett's Point and known him as Atkinson, When the man came into his store, he sald he was working for a transport company and wanted the articles to take out on approval for his mother and sister. Then he would return and purchase them for $84 cash. After leaving the store, Sims didn't return. Early this month, the guitar was recovered by Chief Charles Fletcher on a visit to Napanee. The radio has not ap- peared. Sims story to the court was con- tradictory to that told by the merchant, He said he had obtaned the good on credit -- not on the approval slip exhibited in court and that it was agreed he would pay in a week. The radio was for his girl friend's mother and the guitar for his girl. Personally, he couldn't play. At the Oshawa store, Sims also obtained $190 worth of goods on credit besides the $60 cash.

Beautiful memories are all we have left Of him we loved dearly and will never forget; His loving smile and happy face A broken link we can never replace Sad was the parting, no one can tell, So sudden on earth the sorrow fell, Memories we treasure, no one can steal, Death leaves a heartache nothing can eal, --Ever remembered by wife and family. Major Carl Hiltz, staff officer of the Salvation Army, delivering an inspiring address at the second of the Passion Week services in Whit- by Baptist Church, sponsored by the Whitby Ministerial Association. It was based on.the 14th verse of the second chapter of the book of Titus, 'Who gave Himself for Us, that He might redeem us from all iniquity and purify unto Himself a peculiar people, zealous of Good Works." The service was taken by Rev. James E. Harvey, president of the Ministerial Association. Major Hiltz sald that while his- tory records the names of magy in all ages who have made supreme sacrifice for their fellows enduring gréat suffering, pain and shame their sacrifices were in the realm of the physical. The sacri fice of Christ, too, was in this realm, but for this difference, He carried the weight of the wer!' sin on his soul, reconciling the world, as Paul had said, uno . | Himself, that He might redeem us {from all iniouity. | Through His sacrifice on the Purpose of Christ's Sacrifice Outlined cross and His atonement all may be brought back to His fold. "If any man be in Christ he is a new creature," the major quoted Paul as saying, and it is as true todav as it was then, "We rejoice that we can share int he sacrifices He made on our behalf, and exper- ience the power of Christ in our lives," he declared. Obligation of those redeemed by Christ, and who had surrendered their lives to Him, said Major Hiltz, was to go out and preach the gospel to others, purifying the work of the Holy Spirit in their lives, and making His purposes ful- filled. We must present ourselves a living sacrifice to God. We are, in the words of the text, to be a "peculiar people" devoted exclus- ively to the service of Christ, and to bringing others to Him. We are to have close communion with him and seek®in every way to extend His cause and kingdom. We are called upon to be zealous of good works and spiritually enthusiastic, Major Hiltz said. By RICHARD O'REGAN VIENNA (AP)--It's no wonder Russian refuses to get out of | Austria. Under Soviet occupation, |the Russians are systematically denuding the country of its oil wealth--and even snatching its silk stockings and pencils for Russian women and children, This is a key reason why hun- dreds of four-power meetings to try to get a state treaty for Aus- tria always have failed. The Russians plainly are out to take the last shirt of the eastern part of the country--their occua- tion zone. Two more years and the Russians will have taken the last drop of oil. Since 1945, they have stolen, plundered or cheated Aus- tria- out of $1,000,000,000. Meanwhile, the United States has had to give Austria $1,419,000,000 in various aid. If it hadn't, the Alpine land would have collapsed under the Soviet heel. The Russian robbery of Austria is all-embracing. Not only do the Soviets take most of the output of 300 factories, but they run a huge illegal black market that nets tremendous profits. On top of that, they supervise a big East - West business that brings in vital war goods for the Soviet bloc. The Soviet exploitation has had this effect: production is way above what it was in 1938, but the average Austrian"s income is far lower. he has to pay in taxes for what the Russians take out. This is how Russia's colonial em- pire in Austria works: From 1945 to 1946, Soviet brig- ades carried off vast quantities of Austrian machinery, raw mater- fals, textiles and vehicles as war booty. Then they declared they had agricultural properties plus the shipping of the Danube Steamship Company because these were "Ger Reds Systematically Steal Austria Blind man assets' -- meaning plants which the Nazis had seized before the Russians got to them. Since then, Russian managers have been running these seized properties. Under them are 60,000 Austrian employees. The plants total one-fifth of Ausiria's indus- trial wealth, Most of the plants must sell their products at a mark-up of only four per cent above costs. This means that managers cannot afford even adequate maintenance and must borrow from the Soviet military bank to prevent deterioration. The result is that there is hardly a plant not in debt up to at least 40 per cent of its book value. In time, the plants will become out- right Russian Property Greatest single object of exploit- ation is Austria's oil, Since 1945, thousands of Austria workers under Soviet experts have ex- tracted 10,000,000 tons from the Zistersdorf fields north of Vienna. Of this, Russia and her East European satellites have taken 7,000,000 tons.
