J. Umphrey, vice-president and director of sales of General Motors of Can- ada, said today. Deliveries of these units in May totalled 22,- 751. "From present indications it becomes increasingly evident that this buoyant market for cars and trucks will continue at a high level through the month of June," Mr. Umphrey said. "Used car sales by our deal- ers also showed a marked up- turn in May. This indicates a growing strength within the whole automotive market in Canada. "With the steady increase in new car sales and the extreme- ly healthy position in respect to used cars, we are tonfident that General Motors dealers in Can- ada will have another highly successful sales year in 1961," Mr. Umphrey said. 300 MAKES OF AUTOS IN 1895 Car manufacturers came along and faded quickly in the early days. In 1895 there were about 300 makes of autos in existence; some 200 of which had disappeared by 1900.

B. Rynard, MP for Simcoe East riding, Sunday morning challenged the grad: : uating class of the Oshawa | Missionary College "to meet the |challenge of a changing world and the challenge of Commun- |ism, growing and growing like a gigantic tyranny." | Speaking to the 39 college |seniors during the OMC Com- mencement, the member of parliament also challenged the students "to fan the spark of ability in them until it shines like a meteor in the world." DEVELOP RESOURCES The speaker urged the grad- uates to develop their individu- |al resources so that they can |aid the world in developing its untouched potential. According to Dr. Rynard, in the Soviet today, the state con- trols your movements from the cradle to the grave the people cannot go anywhere -- they work at whatever they are told -- they read only what the government tells them to and they cannot strike for higher wages because their trade un- ions are government controlled. "In the Soviet today", Dr. Rynard said, "education is high- ly selective -- two scientists are produced to every one in the United States. Yet in the hu- manities, seven per thousand is their enrollment as compar- ed to seventeen per thousand in the U.S. and in Canada. We must not forget that, on the very day they put a man into space, the public were unable to buy bread or meat in Mos- cow -- what sacrifices -- what sweat and tears are endured for the false god of material ism and militarism." UNTOUCHED POTENTIAL Stressing the need to assist the world in developing its un- touched potential, Dr. Rynard said: "The human resources of those underdeveloped countries of the world have, on the whole, been shamefully neglected. Few can read or write. It is estima- ted that out of the billion and a half population of underde- veloped countries, one billion 350 million can neither read nor write; that their lifespan is thirty-five years, compared to our 70; that they have one doc- tor to over 5000 people and a nurse to 30,000. "You young men and women are allowed your freedoms, your dedication to the true God and is Son give the stimulus so that all of us will strive for Christ and His principles of freedom. This day, dedicate yourself to the challenge of your Christian principles to make this world Christ's World," Dr. Rynard urged the graduates. COLLEGE CERTIFICATES Elder P. W.
