This month's target of 400 packs fell short, reaching 371. Red Cross blood donor clinic chairman Robert Stroud said that the blood collected may not be enough for Oshawa needs during this month, He said extra blood will come from outside sources if need- ed. --Oshawa Times Photo Well Done, Says MPP Of School Safety, Men Albert V. Walker, Oshawa riding, last night com-| mended the Oshawa school safe-| ty patrols on their "enviable recor The 1,000 safety patrollers who guard more than 14,000 fellow students at 163 city intersections and 34 adult crossing guards have never had an accident while under their supervision, he said. Mr. Walker, speaking at the annual dinner of the Oshawa Safety League in the Genosha Hotel, also paid tribute to Sgt. Wiliam. Tane of the -.Oshawa Police Department, director of the safety patrols. He eaid he is in favor of the elity's mew cross-walk program as "a necessity in this rapidly developing city". He said the Mew program can be beneficial to both the pedestrian and the driver, but there must be a careful spirit of co-operation and an attitude of safety by every- one concerned. Mr. Walker said a government ean promote and encourage safety, but cannot dictate it. "A government cannot simply pass a law and say 'there now, we won't have any more acci- dents'. That wouldn't be a law it wanld he a miraclo."' He: said the government can only do so much and the rest is up to us as individuals. MPP for|tered motor vehicles in the prov-|of us at some time or another} ince. "The horseless carriage was a new-fangled novelty and many people thought it was an ugly, noisy, impractical fad that would soon pass away. But it didn't and today we have 2,400,- 000 motor'vehicles registered in Ontario, an increase of five per cent over the previous year." He said if this trend continues it is expected the total number of- registrations will reach 3,000,000 by 1970 and 4,000,000 by 1980. Mr. Walker said in 1964 Ontario motorists drove almost 21,000,000,000 miles. By 1980 it is expected the total number of miles driven will be double these figures. "Every year in Ontario more than 1,000 people die in traffic accidents, more than 45,000 are injured and there is property damage of many millions of dollars." Mr, Walker said this is a need- less waste of lives and human suffering as well as the dollar cost because "'most of these ac- -- they are collisions that are caused by carelessness."

Mr. Walker said the Ontario government places great stress on safety education. "The teaching of safety begins with parents in the home to in- still a safety-conscious attitude in children," He said many children are killed in Ontario each year while riding on bicycles which creates a special need for all children who ride bicycles to take the utmost care and use common sense. **A vital time for traffic safety is when a boy or girl becomes old enough to drive," said Mr. Walker. "Young people between the ages of 16 and 24 represent only 19 per. cent of all Ontario drivers but they are involved in 28 per cent of all Ontario acci- |dents."" He said he was glad the driver |instruction program is being re- jvived in Oshawa secondary schools and he suggested to the Oshawa Safety League that it committee, The Rundle Park Neighbor- hood Association is making a bid to get out the vote at a 'do or die' meeting of the organi- zation Sunday.

Function of the association, |operated by a five-mémber com- mittee, is to regulate recrea- jtional activities at Rundle Park, which would be turned over ito the city recreation depart- ment if a 1966 committee is not lelected, Mrs. Brown said. . One Crosswalk Some 10 car accidents have occurred here since the start of Safe Driving Week, Monday, but no-one was hurt and damage ovas slight. And Traffic Inspector Norman Smyth said today he expects a few minor accidents before the week is out. In most. other Canadian communities th2 safe- ty week is observed from Dec. 1 to Dec.7. Inspector Smyth said he is hopeful there will be no fatali- ties here, though "getting pedes- trians and motorists used to the six new crosswalks here is a threat." The crosswalks opened Mon- 10 Mishaps In Safety Week, Charge Laid day and one charge of passing a stopped vehicle at a crosswalk was laid yesterday afternoon against a motorist. It was the first charge made in connec- tion with the crossovers. Fine for the offence ranges from $5 to $50. there have been seven traffic fatalities and in all Canada, 26. At the end of the week last year there were 26 dead in the province and 60 across the country.

Mr. Russell «aid job openings | were heavy in most areas o work but that the agricultural picture of employment isn't too bright now that crop harvesting is generally completed and fall plowing is coming to a close. "Manufacturing continued to} maintain a strong position," said Mr. Russlel. 'Many local plants reported peak production with considerable increases This resulted in additional hir- ings in many cases.

He said Mr. Laycox made a contract with the county assess- ment department for the use of Over Reeve's Use Of County Equipment? Ajax, chairman of the county assessment committee, said Mr. Laycox paid for the envelopes and the time of the girl who operated the machine. The De- partment of Municipal Affairs, lhe said, had said there was nothing wrong with this action, He felt that the addressograph equipment was open to every ratepayer if the demand was ble. addressograph He said other candidates for the office of reeve were not notified the equipment was available. He said he would be prepared to sign a petition asking action ainst the reeve which could cause the election to be de- clared void if charges of con- flict of interest were proved. Sherman Scott, another can- didate for reeve, said it might be a case of someone using their position to get a slight advantage. He said it was an error in judgment on the part of the assessment department jand the candidate. Deputy Reeve John Hall, of t . Assessment Commissioner Gordon Hepditch said Reeve Laycox gras charged $3.40 per thousand for addressing 7,000 envelopes. He said the service was available to all munict- palities in the county but was not open to commercial entet- prises. Reeve Laycox said he felt the service should be open to anyone who asked for it. He had paid $2450 for the service, he said. He also said of his opponents: "Tf this was all they had as a campaign issue, they must need the job of reeve." OPPOSES TORONTO CHIEF Hit By City Terence V. Kelly, prominent Oshawa lawyer, last night took issue with Metropolitan Toronto Police Chief James Mackie's statements yesterday on capital punishment. Speaking to members of Osh- awa Kinsmen Club, Mr. Kelly said that there is no chance to make amends after a person has been hanged if he has been wrongly convicted. Chief Mackey was quoted as saying he will protest the com- mutation of the death sentence of the Beatle-wig bandit who shot and killed a man after a bank holdup in Toronto last July. FEEL EFFECTS Chief Mackey, president of the Canadian Association of Chiefs of Police, said Canada prould feel the effects of this jPoacy Wwaen convicted murders lare paroled, Mr. Kelly recalled a case about 20 years ago where a lawyer who had an obsession to represent persons charged with | capital offences offered his |services to clients under the jlegal aid system. He said several persons this man represented were hanged and it was later discovered the lawyer was mentally incompe- tent. "There is no telling how many persons might have been ac- quitted if they had received the services of a responsible coun- sel," he said. 'MOUTHPIECE' Mr. Kelly said a lawyer in capital cases is really a mouth- Capital Punishment Lawyer half of another, and it is not up to him to determine if the per- son is guilty or not guilty. He said facts prove that the incidence of murder is not de- creased by the retention of cap+ ital punishment. : "A defence counsel is entitled to do everything he can to gain an acquittal provided he uses fair means and pursues the truth," he said. "The onus is upon the Crown to prove guilt of an accused beyond reason- able doubt." Recalling some humorous in- cidents in court, Mr. Kelly told the story of a man who ap- peared in an Oshawa court charged with drunk driving, 'PICK 'EM UP' "The police officer threw down some coins after he was arrested and told him to pick jthem up," he said. "The man fxraas threse tham Aa. ¥ <<pr "ncase MUI SUM pick them up.'" Will Klein, national president of Kinsmen, presented J. Donald Fleming, president of the Osh- awa Kinsmen Club, a banner from the national executive. Mr. Klein said Kinsmen will have to take a hard long-term look at expansion. He said 30 per cent of Kinsmen Clubs in Canada have less than 18 mem- ers. ® The Oshawa club donated its full assessment for the next five years -- $1,800 -- to the Kinsmen national fund for work in the field of mental retarda- tion. Other head table guests in- cluded Jack Delaney, governor of District 8; Ross Nobleton, district treasurer and Walter piece, one who speaks on he- men Club. Mr. Klein, who lives in Regina, visited the Oshawa club while on. busi- ness in Toronto.
