Pe.+,roro Press Criticized With the question o! publicit39 thus opened, D. Buckspan, man- ager of the local theatre, comn- plained that The Statesman pub- lished ads of outsîde theatres and that patrons visiting outside the- atres thus took business away from town and, seeing store win- dows elsewhere were led ta buy there as weli. The matter was funther emphasized by the Mayor who claimed that some classified ads of outside firms appeaning in the local press were .misrepresen- tations. He submitted as evidence that local buyers had told him, after visits to the outside adven- tiser, that the goods advertised were eitber non-existent or pon value. Chaîrman Walter DeGeer sug- gested that the discussion was be- coming academic and questioned wbether a paper could refuse le- gitimate adventising by any firm legitimately established in busi- ness. The outcome was the sug- gestion that charge o! spuniaus ad- vertising should be submitted ta the Better Business Bureau since the local press bad no facilities of examining eveny mattress or gadget advertised by duly licensed merchants, bere or elsewbene. Selling to Empioyees Goodyear came under review in the assertion by a tire dealer that ils employees had the pnivi- lege o! buying from the firm at less than competitive netail pnices, bath tires and batteries.. A comn- pany official pointed out that it was company policy in the nature of public relations, just the same as that of a retail merchant who no daubt gave similar' concessions to bis own employees. President's View President DeGeer expnessed the view that the matters braught out were fnank, above-board, out into the open feelings that not only gave'emphasis ta the desire of im- proving the cammunity as a whole but gave a keynote ta the Cham- ber of Commerce ta approach its prablems ala-ng the uines of broad general pninciples. He accorded very bigb praise ta the chairmen and members o! sub-committees wbo be said were the backbone a! the organization. Secretary Reports Secretary Charles Carter, Sr., reported on bis attendance as del- egate o! the Chamber at the On- tario Association of Boards of Trade. It was the provincial a!- filiate o! the Canadian Chamber o! Commerce andi acted as the connecting link between the na- tional organîzation and provincial locals in dealing witb matters of provincial concern. Tounist bus- iness was higb on the agendafon the next few years, a resource o! immense possibihities. Finance Mr. Carter was inforrned that the membership o! the Bowman- ville Chamber, companeci witb of- ficial records, was nean the top on a percentage basis when com- pared witb population figures. The financial statement presented was most encouraging. Funds accru- ing fnom memberships amounted ta $715 out o! wbich general ex-, -penses were $209.55, leaving a bal- ance on hanci o! $505.45. A drive for new members wiil be contin- udas the Chamber continues with its very extensive program. Committee reports will be found in another column.- The bride wore a street lengtb dress of green wool crepe and brown accessories and a corsage of Red Roses. Mrs. Jack Goheen sister of the bride acted as matron of honor wearing fuchsia wool crepe and brown accessories and a corsage of yehlow roses.

Miss Beatr 'ix Mclntosh, président, presided, and in ber. opening re- marks explained -the purpose of tbe meeting was to fifialiy decide the future of the Newcastle Brancb, whetber it wouid be pos- sible to continue as a peace time Red Cross or wbether it wouid be acivisabie to discontinue as a so- ciety. This question bas been in abey- ance since the annual meeting in Januany wben Miss McIntosh in- formeci thé meeting that unless a new group would be wiliing to re- organize and ,~assume the lied Cross peace time pnognam, that it would be impossible to continue as a bnanch, as she and ber pres- ent executive and War Work Com- mittee wbo had carried on so faithfully for the past six years were weary and felt unable to assume this new work. In Marcb a meeting of the branch was held at which Mrs. Dewar of Toronto addressed the membens and impressed on them that the Redi Cross work is neyer done. She outlined the plans of the peace time Red Cross which included outpost hospîtals, service to veterans and families, national blood *ransfusion service to sup- ply free blood to those needing transfusion therapy throughout Canada,'and other services such as nutrition, first aid and disaster relief. It was decided at the conclusion of Mrs. Dewar's address that the question of disbanding or continu- ing the branch would be left over until the autumn in the hope that some interested person or persons could be found who would take charge of the peace time work. At the meeting on Thursday ev- ening the president, Miss McIn- tosh, explaineci that as no one seemed ta be wîllingý to undertake this work, the question of the fu- ture of the branch was again be- fore the.-meeting with a finàl de- cision to be made that evening. The president gave a short resume of the work accomplished by this branch during the war years, with over 20,000 finished articles ship- ped ta headquarters and with the branch raising aven $16,000.
