C.N.R. Tickets WHEN WE TEST EYES IT IS DONE PROPERLY King St. W. Bownianville P. returned men, and the great needj for unity and co-operation ini the days ahead. His theme was brought down, in striking ternis, to emphasize the need for Cham- bers o! Commerce in commun>- ties ail across the nation. It was effective argument that claimed a most attentive hearing. lndustry Leads The speaker told of attending the meeting in New York, where the Hoffman Committee, made up of national figures in industry who sought a practical solution in get- ting business under full steam to meet the transitionai period. With the muddled example o! the last post war period as a guide, a plan was laid down to avoid former mistakes. Hence a national sur- vey was undertaken and is now deveioping to meet the practical needs of today. The Canadian Chamber of Commerce, operating on the ground level through its lo- cals, is promoting the same drive across Canada today. Common Interests Mr. Bryce suggested that it is not what we seek to get out of a Chamber o! Commerce, but what we put into it, that counts. The interests of one are the interests of ail. This conception was made apparent by publication in full in last week's Statesman of the ABC's of a Chamber of Com- merce. The speaker said that lo- cal Chambers were common meet- ing places where ail civic organ- izations, ail citizens, came togeth- er to thresh out problems com- mon to ail and to submit their views to the parent organization as an aid to policy making. Young Leaders Turning to the problem of youth and particularly to young veter- ans, the speaker spoke strongly of their desire for better educa- tion which was shown in the great number attending universi- ties and vocational schools. They would be the leaders tomorrow and he commended their interest in promotional work for Cham- bers of Commerce. He suggested a tolerant and heipfui attitude among older businessmen. Space precludes a more full report of Mr. Bryce's striking message. He concluded: "Getting together is a beginning; staying together means progress and working together means getting results." He pro- mised complete co-operation o! tPie Ontario and Canadian Cham- ber of Commerce wîth the Bow- manVilie branch. Other Speakers Mr. Hammili seconded the sen- timents o! M r. Bryce and compli- mented the young men for the very able conduct o! the meeting. He suggested to the audience that they were off on the right foot and a good start and he predict- ed fine success arising from the meeting. Mr. Garner, a former, BÊTwmanville citizen, told of the1 work of the Oshawa Chamber, of its campaign for memberships and phases of the work undertaken. He made valuable suggestions on how such an organization could co-operate' with the council. Stressing particula ly the tourist traffic and establishment of in- dustries, he revealed that the Oshawa Chamber had received since January 1, no less than 19 enquiries from firms wishing to lo- cate iii that city. He saw great- er success for the idea by invit- ing the widest possible farm mem- bership. Local Addresses Chairman DeGeer and Mr. Car- ter told o! the initial steps taken in organization, which stemmed originaliy from Mr. Carter's visit to a regional convention at Co- bourg. Both spoke strongly for the movement and complimented the young men who worked long hours to assure such a splendid general meeting. Mr. Strike ex- pressed the welcome in behaîf o! the municîpality and thanked the speakers. He enlarged upon the value of a Chamber of Commerce, in joining with civic administra- tions to promote the best inter- ests. of the entire community. He was confident that the movement had caught on and would go on. Business Bill James read the proposed constitution, clause by clause, moved its adoption. It was car- ried unanimously. Jack Allun submitted the tentative schedule of finance for the first year, ap- proximately $1,200 and Jack Ca- meron read the names submitted by the nominating committee. Others nominated from the floor included, Ex-Reeve W. R. Pickell, Darlington, Ross Stevens and L. W. Dippell. The complete list will be submitted to the eligible vot- ers by mail and the names of the board announced at the next meeting following completion of the ballotting. Registrations at the door were in charge o! Bert Johnston, Jim Stutt and Bill Mc- Feeters. Back Shop (Continued from Page One) that it has been difficult to decide who should be included.

In the Front Office-that haven of relaxation, we say, where the people sit down ail day- Miss Helen Norwlck bas been recalled Wo General Motors. She has been replaced by Miss Ruth Hutchinson, daughter of Mrs. M. Hutchinson, and well known locally as comedienne witb the Canadian Army Shows ln Canada and abroad. At the present time, we puzzle every morning ivho the new girl is, because, during ber travels, Ruth bas picked Up many and varied hair do's, which certainly are confusing. 9: * * No mention has been made pre- viousiy in this column of a young lady who entered the portais a few weeks ago, fresh from Bow- manvilie Business Sehool. We have reference to Miss Jean Living, daughter of Mr. and Mrs. Jack Living. Ail types are now rep- resented. Miss Balson is a red head, Miss Living a blonde and Miss Hutchinson, a brunette. No- thing monotonous about this place. In that important part of the establishment, the Back Shop, a new apprentice bas joined the task force, namely John Virgin, an ex-navy man, son of Mr. and Mrs. A. R. Vir- gin. He replaces Gary Tighe who bas retired fromn the printing field. John bas re- cently completed a course in commercial art and prlnting at Hamilton Tech and- is fit- ting into the picture quite nicely. THIS WEEK-THE DECISION This is an important week to nearly 800 workers at the local Goodyear plant, and to the entire community as well. Everyone is taiking about the possibiiity of the strike and everyone, includ- ing workers, emrnloyers and Tretir- ed people is hoping and, we imagine some are praying, that somnething wili transpire to bring about a settiement of the dispute. It is definitely certain that no one wants the strike with its sub- sequent hardships, its customary hard feelings and dirt throwing. We have no intention of dealing with the pros and cons of the situation. That is for union and management to figure out. We would like to mention something which we think wili have a consid- erable bearing on the local situation whichever way the decision goes. We have ref- erence Wo the two men who are the most important per- sons in Bowmanvilie at the mamnger hrieCar Plant UnineCae NorAlliaon UnohLeerl Non loAll.on bot wll no * *aly Both are, fortunately, men of high calibre. We have talked to them, argued with them and lis- tened to themn as they explained both sides of the story. We have yet to hear either of themn say one word against the other man or against the organization he rep- resents. Both are realists and know, how much a strike wili mean to the workers, to the plant and to the community. Both are in agreement that they are as anxious as anyone to avoid a strike. Both give the impression that they are vitally interested in the peaceful settiement of the dispute and in the continued har- monious relationship between un- ion and company to the mutual benefit of all. Both give the im- pression that they are sound men, striving to do a good job and -in- 1 United Church S. S.
