S. Mitchell in Oshawa traffic court Tuesday. A total of $625 was levied in fines in 30 convictions. Five charges were dismissed, and 36 charges were adjourned, set over or withdrawn.

All classes of "negative-type" blood are in extremely low supply at the central blood bank which serves Oshawa and area hospit- als. This condition eouple with an extraordinarily heavy demand for blood at all hospitals and the rising holiday accident toll has created a major crisis for the free transfusion service of the| Red Cross. Robert H, Stroud, eco-ordinat- ing chairman of the Blood Donor Clinic Committee, has issued a| 7" |special appeal for donors to come ito the clinic which will open to- morrow at St. Gregory's Auditor- jum on Simcoe street north. Clinic hours are from 1.30 to 4 {p.m, and from 6 to 9 p.m. | Oshawa's normal minimum goal has been 300 pints of blood a|' month, But, in view of the fact that more than 300 pints of are being used at the hospitals each month for some time now, a minimum objective of close to 400 pints must be idered as an absolute necessity, Mr, Stroud said. June Customs Shows Increase Total customs collections in Oshawa for the month of June amounted to $10,399,631.51, Osh- awa customs officials announced today. The total collections for June, 1959 were $8,888,211.91 or about one and a half million dol- lars lower than June of this year. Breakdown of last month's total is as follows: Import Duty $854, 214.04; Excise Duty, $891; Sundry Collections, $1,383,25; Total Sales Tax, $6,346,520.53; Total Excise Tax, $3,196,622.60.

He said this visit, including 23 Oshawa trade unionists in a dele- gation estimated at close to 300, "was extremely successful", Mr. Smith said he was impressed that Prime Minister Diefenbaker spent over an hour on the dele- gation, "The whole presentation of the brief, with the discussion, took two hours," he said, "The prime minister complimented the unions on the size of the delega-| tion and the preparation of brief. He also said he was im- pressed by the speakers from the floor." Four members of Local 222) spoke from the floor.

Mr, Smith said Windsor has been hardest hit by the depressed condition of the auto industry. Windsor had about 65 delegates in Ottawa.

The highest dart is stuck into the pole at a height of more than 60 feet, The lowest is at about 25 feet, with the others at varying heights in between. How the darts got there is something of a mystery, but their presence is providing visitors with a new and facinating type of guessing game, New Cigaret Tax Suggested OTTAWA (CP)--A cigaret tax should be levied on Canadian smokers as a long - delayed royalty to Indians for having in- vented tobacco, it was proposed Tuesday by an Oblate priest who has labored 12 years on behalf of the first citizens of Canada. The money would be used to finance an Indian Canada Coun- cil operated by Indians for In- dians on and off reservations un- der control of Parliament itself. Rev. Andre Renaud, 40, direc- tor general of the Roman Cath. olic order's Indian and Eskimo welfare commission, sprang the idea at a press conference.

The youngest group are boys aged seven and cars in the United States, led with a shortage of components, have caused Vauxhall Motors, the British subsidiary of the Gen- eral Motors Corporation, to stop all overtime working for the present. About 3000 workers in the body assembly plant at Luton are affected by this decision, Making the announcement, a spokesman for the Vauxhall Com- pany said: "All imported medium - sized family cars have dropped sales up to 30 per cent in the United States, due to the new American compact cars, which are only a few hundred dollars more. Our sales in Canada are, however, being maintained with the two special models of the Victor pro- duced for export. We shall be on the normal working week, with- out overtime, until the holidays, which start in the middle of July."

These reduced rates will be ef- fective on meter readings on and after October 1, 1960. It is ex- pected that they would remain in |effect on an interim basis, until a public rate hearing has been held, A.-L. Bishop, president, in an- nouncing the move, said this would be the ninth voluntary rate reduction made by Consum- ers' Gas since 1955, when natur- al gas replaced manufactured gas in Metropolitan Toronto. STATED POLICY "This follows our stated policy that our customers are entitled to the lowest possible gas rates and highest standards of service consistent with good business practice," Mr, Bishop said. "The new heating rate would, if approved, apply throughout C s' greatly expanded dis- tribution system from 'Brampton in the west to Bowmanville in the east, north to Barrie and along Georgian" Bay to Colling- wood, and in Peterborough, Lind- say, Brockville, Otatwa and the Ottawa Valley." Average saving to house heat- ing customers under thé proposed new schedules would be $4.77 for a year. For commercial and medium sized industrial heating customers substantial saving would result. BILLING EXTENDED Heating customers would bené- fit next summer by extension of the period of summer billing to include the month of June, as well as July and August. The summer reductions bring June, July and August bills down nya high of about $7, to between $8 and $4 each month, with furnace pilots on and hot water units operating. Mr. Bishop noted that Consume ers' voluntary rate reduction pols icy had proved highly successful in obtaining house heating and water heating customers. The total of heating customers in 1955 was 3500, Today it is over 70,000. In its application to the Fuel Board, Consumers' stated the re- quested rate reduction would bet ter enable the Company to coms pete with oil, coal and electricity, particularly in the commercial and medium sized industrial field, Mr. Bishop said that reductions in revenue as a result of the nine rate cuts to date represented nearly twenty-four million dole lars in savings to Consumers® customers. " "Acceptance of natura] gas in our franchised areas and our ability to finance necessary exe pansion at a cost of over one hundred million dollars in less than six' years, have completely justified the voluntary rate re- duction policies followed by Cons sumers' Gas," he declared, " 432 Persons Killed On U.S. Weekend CHICAGO (AP)--At least 432 persons were killed in traffic accidents in the United States during the holiday weekend, set- ting a record for a three-day celebration of Independence Day.
