Dominion Stores Sales: Show Rise Sales of Dominion Stores Limit- ed continue at an accelerated rate and recent Mammoth market op- enings have far exceeded expecta- tions, J. William Horsey, Presi- dent, stated at the annual meeting. Costs, particularly wages, continue to rise whereas prices are at a lower level. However, the manage- ment is greatly encouraged and looks forward with new confidence to the fhture. * Commenting on the Company's Erowth in the past 15 years, Mr. orsey pointed out that sales have Ly by $102,000,000 to $120,646,000 1952, while the number of units has been reduced to 202 from 464 in 1938. Total assets are $17,302, 000 higher at $21,248,000 and share- Yolders' equity of $10,970,000, or $8.70 a share, compares with $3,- 062,000, or $2.73 a share. No divi- dends were paid in 1938, whereas $662,000 was distributed in 1952. Despite world conditions, Canada will continue to grow afid not only will Dominion Stores grow with Canada but by constant devotion to the principle of "more efficient distribution--more for eve 4 it will make a definite and ef- fective contribution to the growth of this country, continued the President. The Mammoth market has been an outstanding success. Many sites have been and are being ac- quad for further expansion of the rvice in the territory presently served. The Company will continue to move forward as rapidly as sound judgment and planning will permit. Simcoe Street School Anniversary "This is God's House and He is here today' was sung by the Be- ginners' Department as a very fit- ting Invocation to open the annual Anniversary Service of Simcoe Street United Church Sunday School. In the pulpit, with the minister, Rev. John K. Moffat, B.A., were Fred Britten, the General Super- intendent of the School, who con- ducted the service and brought the message; Larry Higgins who very ably read the scripture pass- ages, and Beverley Pine whe led the congregation in a beautiful and thoughtful period of prayer. The Beginners Department brought a message in song about '"The Creation," lead by Miss Joan Hutchison with Miss Eleanor Gay as accompanist. Fourteen of the lovely voice§ from the Primary Sunday Department sang 'All the happy | children," conducted by Miss Mae Kayes with Miss Mabel Coedy at the piano. In his message Mr. Britten trac- ed the development of Sunday Schools from the time of Robert Raikes and his "Raikes' Ragamuf- fins," when classes were held in his home with four helpers being paid a shilling per Sunday, com- paring it to the present day with nearly 600,000 members in United Church Sunday Schools across Can- ada and teachers who serve for the love of God and the joy of the work. Children's hymns were used throughout the service and the choir, under the direction of Mr. Matthew Gouldburn, sang the fa- miliar anthem "I am Alpha and Omega." Missionary To Italy Will Visit Rev. Daniel Ippolito, who has re- cently arrived in Canada from Italy, will be visiting in Oshawa over the coming weekend. Rev. Ippolito was sent to Italy to do missionary work through the Pen- tecostal Churches of Canada and America in Italy. While there he also ministered among other evan- gelical bodies. Although Italy, under her new Constitution, guarantees Freedom of Religion, it is only a paper freedom, Mr. Ippolito asserts. Al- Churchill Explains Korean Difficulties LONDON (AP)--Prime Minister Churchill told the House of Com- mons Tuesday that "nothing ought now to stand in the way of the conclusion of an armistice (in Korea) except necessary adminis- trative arrangements." Churchill said he was confident the administrative details "may soon be completed." "We are satisfied," he added "that the arrangements now agreed will. ensure that no prisoner of war is repatriated by force." Churchill went on: "Under the decisive guidance of President Eisenhower a result has been achieved which, unless new disappointments occur, will be of high value in itself and also import- ant in relation to the world posi- ion. "I do not feel that full justice has been done by us here during the last few months to the difficult- ies to which General Clark and General Harrison were subjected not only by Communist obstinacy but also by the attitude of the South Korean government under Mr. Syngman Rhee." Gen. Mark Clark, the American general heading the United Nation forces in Korea, and Gen. William Harrison, chief UN negotiator in the truce talks, have repeatedly come under fire of Labor mem- bers in Parliament. Bratton Moves Nearer Welterweight MONTREAL (CP)--Johnny Brat- ton of Chicago, seeking a crack at champion Kid Gavilan's welter- weight crown, Tuesday night won a unanimous 10-round decision over Danny Womber of New York. The fight drew only 3,575 fans and the paid gate was $10,836. Bratton, who weighed in at 149 3%, was master of the situation all the way and had Womber in dis- tress in the fifth and sixth rounds. Womber weighed 150%. In the fifth, Bratton caught Wom- ber with sharp rights and lefts and the New Yorker reefed backwards against the ropes. He came out bobbing and weaving and kept out of further trouble for the remainder Crown 1 Oshawa most everywhere there is active and official opposition both by civic and religious authorities. Protestant Christians in Italy are caught between Roman Catholicism on one hand, and Communism on the other. Both are militantly op- posed to evangelical Christianity for the Italians. In spite of this, there are about 350 Pentecostal Churches in the country and their numbers are growing rapidly. Some churches are officially clos- ed yet continue to meet as they can. Christianity has again taken to the catacombs in Rome. There is great unrest in Italy with Communism and Fascism taking dominant parts in fostering civil strife, each strjving for lead- ership in the gove ent. To add to all this, Italy is a country of poverty and wealth. There are mo- dern cities, fine buildings and homes but for the greater part there is poverty and misery. ° Rev. Ippolito will be showing pictures he took while in Italy in his visit to Oshawa. Of particular interest are the pictures taken when, as they preached, they were set upon by the mobs as they were urged on by robed priests who are clearly seen in the pictures. Mr. Ippolitto was able to get out of the crowd and turn his camera and take pictures as the police came to his rescue. These will be shown in the Pentecostal Church, Simcoe Street South on Saturday evening and Monday evening 'and the pub- lic is invited to be present. Rev. Ippolito visited the Holy Land during the Easter season last year and has beautiful pictures which he took while there. They will also be shown. All are heartily invited to see the pictures, which are all in natural color.

Truck Driver Blameless In Fatal Crash COBOURG -- A coroner's jury Monday night brought in a verdict attaching no blame to the driver of a truck with which a car col- lided last Wednesday killing two people in an accident four miles west of town. Driver of the truck was C. J. Brown of Kitchener. The car was driven by George Harri- son of Oshawa, who with his pas- of the round. In the sixth Wi made an attempt to come back and peppered Bratton with short body and head punches but mid- way through the round Bratton caught him with two hard lefts and a right which banged Womber into the ropes again. The Chicagoan held a wide mar- gn in the scoring. Judge Johnny judge Rene Ouimet 7-2-1 and judge Leon Germain 8-2-0. Just before the end of the ninth Bratton brought Womber up with a fast right and a left and Womber, moving away from another Bratton right, slipped to the canvas. There was no count. Labor Board's Ruling Set Aside OTTAWA (CP) -- The Supreme Court of Canada ruled Monday that a local labor relations board was not justified in refusing to certify a trade union because its organizer was a Communist. The appeal, brought by Smith and Rhuland, Ltd., shipbuilders, was from the judgment of the Supreme Court of Nova Scotia which set aside the rejection by the province labor relations board of an application for certification by the Industrial Union of Marine and Shipbuilding Workers of Can- ada (CCL). The board refused certification because J. K. Bell, secretary of the marine workers' federation, and organizer of the upion, was a Communist. He became secretary of any new union organized by the federation until it elected its | COMING EVENTS MADAME NEVADA, PALMIST, AT 77 Ontario St. Hours: . 10-9, Wednesday, Thursday, Friday.

The Nova Scotia court on ap- peal held the board to have had, in the circumstances, no discre- tion to refuse certification, and ruled that even if it had the dis- | cretion was improperly exercised. Dismissing the appeal to the Su- preme Court of Canada with costs, Mr. Justice Ivan Rand, in a ma- jority verdict, questioned whether the board in its refusal to certify had acted within the limits of its discretion. ow scored it 6-2-2 for Bratton, 1 F.

Cecile and act- ing major Lawrence A. Deziel. After attending a luncheon, the United States editors, guests of the M ger, William E. Gratton of Havelock, were killed. Only eyewitness was the truck driver who said that the car sud- denly swerved over into his traf- fic lane, coming headon, and side- swiped the' rear wheels of the tran- sport tractor. The car was going at a high speed, he said. Provincial Constable Frank Clough gave evidence as to marks on the highway, which indicated that the car had swerved over to the wrong side of the road just before the collision. The truck driver ditched his vehicle in a vain effort to avoid the crash. The jury found that the two men died at 3.30 a.m. on Highway No. 2 on June 3 "and that the truck driver did all he could to avoid the accident." BIRTHDAYS OSHAWA Combining The Oshawa Times and Whitby Gazette and Chronicle THE DAILY TIMES-GAZETTE WHITBY VOL. 12--No. 135 OSHAWA-WHITBY, WEDNESDAY, JUNE 10, 1953 PAGE THREE LABOR COUNCIL BRIEFS Last night's meeting of Oshawa and District Labor Council moved to protest the holding of the fed- eral elections during the month of August, when most of the local plant holidays occurred.' Elected by acclamation as vice- president of the council was G. Wesson, Local 1817, United Steel workers of America. Heard Alderman Wes Powers, the CCF candidate for election in Ontario Riding in the coming fed- eral election, plead for labor par- ticipation in the coming political struggle. "I know I can win with your support," said Alderman Powers. Saw President Ted Twining pre- sent a pen and pencil set to Har- old Henning, immediate past presi- dent of the council, in appreciation of his faithful services to the labor body. It was engraved with his name, office, the date and the Osh- awa and District Labor Council. The next meeting of the Religion- Labor Foundation was announced for June 23, at 8 p.m., in the UAW Hall. The work of the foundation was commended by secretary- treasurer M. J. Fenwick as a wor- H. [thy community enterprise. On motion of delegate Wilfred Duffield, council went on record as condemning the dictatorial at- titude of General Motors of Can- ada Limited for penalizing work- ers who had celebrated Coromation Day, declared a holiday by the Canadian government. "This great American corpora- tion," said delegate Ralph Cook, "bore down on workers who took Coronation afternoon off with pen- alties up to as much as two days suspension." "GM thinks no more of the Queen than of dirt in the gutter," added delegate Nelson Wilson. MILLBROOK (CP) -- Ontario provincial police have ruled out the theory of murder in the mys- terious death here Monday of Jack William Smith, 20-year-old farmer. Mrs. Smith, the victim's mother, found her son lying on the ground beside his hay wagon with 'a bullet through his heart. Police Abandon Murder Theory Police said they believe a stray bullet, fired in target practice or hunting, caused the youth's death. Mrs. Smith, who went to get her son a cup of tea before the shoot- ing, said her son was hammering at the rack"of a hay wagon at 1:30 p.m. She said she heard the hammering stop and discovered the body at 2:45 p.m. "There is a need for aid, on a federal basis in order to assure that the children of Canada, from the Atlantic to the Pacific, can have a foundation in the principles /that will make this country great- ler in the years to come," declar- ed Rev. John V. Mills, guest speak- er at the Oshawa Kiwanis Club's luncheon meeting on Tuesday. The speaker, it was pointed out by his introducer, Kiwanian Steph- en Saywell, is current full-time secretary of the . Public School Trustee Association of Ontario and a member of the Toronto Board of Education. The well-known provincial edu- cationalist, at the outset of his re- marks, stated that he would talk, "not on the three R's but on the three T's." TAX INSIGNIFICANT Proceeding, the speaker pointed out that despite the criticism level- led by many citizens today at the cost of education, it amounts in most cases to less than the cost, of one packet of cigarettes per day. "I would be a heel if I criticized the cost of educating my son, if I stud- ied the actual cost," stated the speaker. '"We have a tradition in Ontario, a tradition of equal education for boys and girls in our province," stated Mr. Mills. "The home, the school and the church combine to give our boys and girls this equal opportunity. No boy or girl, from six to 16 should be without an ade- quate education. Following his discussion of 'tra- dition' as the first T, the speaker went on to point out that the 'trus- tee' and the 'teacher' could be com- bined as the second 'T' of modern education. 'Trustees receive no re- muneration and all they ask is the privilege of serving your children and mine," declared Rev. Mr. Mills. Speaking of teachers, and relating a few anecdotes from personal experience, the speaker pointed out that the teachers, al- though meterially remunerated, are for the most part, more. con- cerned with earning the esteem and respect of their scholars and in their way, are building the fu- ture of Canada, on a strong and sure foundation. PUBLIC DEMAND The 'speaker listed 'taxation' as the third of his 'three T's'. Stress- ing in many communities they still do not have the ordinary accomodation of classrooms, the speaker pointed out that the gov- .ernment had adopted a policy of leaving the financial obligation up to any community that wished to have extra services, such as mech- Urge Federal Aid For Education anical shops, home economics, gymnasia, etc. . "If we are to receive more aid from a federal source," stated the speaker after commenting on this phase, "it will come only as the result of a public demand." In con- clusion he added, "we must ac- quaint federal authorities with the information of what we want and need and that we need this aid, without strings or restricting reg- ulations and once we have estab- lished this, we may see a Gov- ernment that will assume such a responsibility." iwanian Johnny Graves ex- pressed the sincere appreciation of all the members and guests in a capable manner.

Laborites Want Economics Taught Raise Objection To Report Cards old-fashioned, came in for considerable discussion. at last night's meeting of the Oshawa and District Labor Council, when Lloyd McInally, a delegate who is also a representative on the Vocational Committee and the Co-ordinating Committee on Educa- tion of the Oshawa Board of Education said those com- in council's views on new trends and suggestions for additional night school sub- & WANT ECONOMICS After several suggestions had been made, a motion was passed asking the board to institute a simple course in economics for night school classes, with especial reference to trade unionism. As it was necessary to have a minimum of 15 students at such classes, the opinion was, expressed that council delegates would turn out en masse to make the course a suc- cess. Objection was registered to the new type of public school report cards, in which letters, such as "E" and ""U" indicated the pupil's standing, instead of the actual marks, as in the former system. It was felt that this left out the old-fashioned element of competi- tion, which was considered a healthy thing by several delegates. Council passed a resolution that the Board of Education be asked to revert to the former method of marking report cards by pergcent- ages. M. J. Fenwick, secretary-treas- urer, remarked that, despite the law there was a trend on the part of industrialists and education- ists to throw students under 16 years of age on the labor market. Not only that, retorted T. D. Green, but school principals them- selves were taking jobs that should go to regular laborers. With- in two days of the closing of school, he said, he had seen 12 of the local principals down at the selec- tive service office, signing on for summer jobs to supplement their regular $4,000 a year salaries. Harking back to the previous statement by the secretary, this delegate declared that any num- ber of children were compelled to leave school at an early age due to egonomic circumstances in the home, a state of affairs which > should not exist in one of the rich- est countries in the world, Further to the discussion on edu- cation, Kenneth Cobb questioned the wisdom of the board's paying married public school teachers less than single teachers, even when the former sometimes had "bet- ter" teaching certificates. He was asked to obtain more information for the next meeting of council.
