TORONTO OFFICE 66 Temperance Street, Tele time to come, REPRESENTATIVES IN US, the amount in years to come, TUESDAY, JUNE 19, 1928 ) A NEW INDUSTRY FOR OSHAWA * The Chamber of Commerce, as a result of diligent efforts on the part of its Industrial Committee and Secretary has succeeded in secur- ing for Oshawa a new industry of considerable size, which, if negotiations now under way are completed, will locate here at an early date. That the new industry is a brewery and that this newspaper is as "dry"' cinder path does not prevent us from recogniz- ing the importance of the accomplishment of the Chamber of Commerce in this regard. The City Council was told last night that three other locations were in competition with Oshawa for this particular industry, Oshawa won out. The Chamber of Commerce has demonstrated that when it goes after anything it is deter- mined to get it and we may expect to see the same determination evidenced in the case of other industrial concerns, both large and small, Nor must we forget that the Industrial Com- mittee of the City Council which is united with a similar committee of the Chamber of Com- merce did their share in securing this new in- dustry. 'We only wish we could rejoice whole-heartedly in the new acquisition to our industrial fabric. Were the industry designed to manufacture any other product we can think of we would not have the slightest difficulty in that regard, But after all, profound convictions, though they may be a little inconvenient at times, cannot he ignored.

Last year's Council struggled with it and finally passed it on along with some other "unfinished business" to the 1928 body. And this year's Council has almost completed half its term of office before finding As Mayor Preston said last night, this year's City Council could wish no better memorial than to be remembered as the Council that secured the opening of certain streets for all The opening of William Street is not of major importance just at present but it is well worth the cost right now and will be abundantly worth Because others made mistakes in subdividing property years ago, or because the street open- ings and extensions that are so apparently de- sirable now could have been opened or extended much more cheaply at an earlier date is no reason for refusing to consider the situation as it is at the present time, Xach proposed street opening must be considered on its merits and we do not suggest the payments of any fancy Petitions from property owners affected or the absence of such petitions should not be the determining factor in a matter of this kind, Many people hesitate to sign any petition that will cost them something. Council should take a comprehensive view of the situation and act in the best interests of the city as a whole and There is no more important business before Council than trying to remedy some of the unfortunate mistakes in laying out of streets that the citizens of today have inherited along with many. wise and good things from the The height of folly is the high cost of liv- Every time the bottom falls out of the stock market another class graduates at the Might as well put something by for old age so yau can retire then instead of just -- J <l Wednesday Morning BARGAINS SOME OF OUR SPECIALS NEW STOCK Values up to $1.50 Yor Cups and Choice Saucers $100 GREEN TINTED STEIN WARE In Goblets, Tumblers, Sherbets and Wine Glass; new and pretty.

Though some inherit lands and gold, And fortunate are they, They still must work their wealth to hold Or it will get away; Bad luck or good luck never found Those talents buried in the ground. The fish are caught within the sea And never on the shore; A poor man he will always be Who never tries for more; This truth exists and always will: One gets nowhere by standing still. --Edgar A.

Allied Newspapers Send Party to See Pa Dominion The holiday inaugurates a remark- able pioneer effort to inspire the love of Empire amongst all young people in the British Isles, by afford- ing them the opportunity not only to learn something of the Empire, but to see the Empire, therchy equip- ping themselves to play a part in the Empire's story. Seven Weeks Trip Throughout the seven weeks tour of Canada the personal interests of the young visitors will be, supervised by capable people. In addition to Frank L. Lascot, the organizing director of the scheme, the party will be accompanied by a "hostess- chaperone" for the young women, and an adjutant for the young men, a special newspaper correspondent, a staff photographer and an official movie camera man. H. R. H. The Prince of Wales has extended an official invitation to the arty to visit his ranch at High iver, Alta, and has expressed his whole-hearted appreciation of the scheme. In addition to the Prince many well known men are supporting the movement, including L. S. Amery, Secretary of State for thé Domin- ions; Stanley Baldwin, Prime Minis- ter, and Capt. Willie Brass, M.P., Parliamentary Secretary to L. S. Am- ery. The tour will commence on July 28, "hen the party will leave South- ampton on board the Cunarder Alau- nia for Quebec, where they are due August 5 Will Field Program From that day, until they depart for Southampton again on September 7, their time will be fully occupied, and they will see almost everything nm €anada worth seeing, including Jasper Park, Njagara Falls, Hollinger Gold Mine, and also take a 70 mile automobile trip through the Rockics to the Prince of Wales' ranch. Sir. Henry Thornton, President of the Canadian National Railways, has sent the following cable to the Al- lied Newspapers: "Information that Allied Newspa- pers Empire Travel Scheme has been launched received here with much gratification. I have studied the pro- posal closely with keen interest and consider it onc of the most instruct- ive steps ever taken for promotion of interest "in Empire affairs. Cana- {dian National Railways deem it pri- vilege to participate. Walter S. Thompson, Director of 4 i Publicity for Canadian National Rail- ways, when interview said: "I know of no scheme that has caught the vublic's fancy as this scheme has dons. It has reached deep into the hearts of hundreds of thousands of British homes."

MORE SCIENCE, LESS GLORY (New York Herald Times) In the flying news that fills the papers these days one is made aware of a somewhat different spirit ani- mating those whose achievements are establishing records. Instead of the vast output of preliminary publicity that attended so many ofthe spec- tacular ventures of last summer the makers of aviation history this year show a marked disposition to creep up on 'the public with a fait accom- pli. Their objectives, too, have a more substantial ring. The ambition to be the first to span this or that, or to go the other fellow one better Head Offices TORONTO Money for Fixed .

OTHER FLIGHTS LOOK TAME (Stratford Beacon-Herald) The Southern Cross has made a most remarkable trip, and has done it under all manner of wea- ther conditions, good, bad and in- different. The plane, carrying two Aus- tralians and two Americans, made three notable trips: Oakland to Honolulu, miles. Honolulu to Fijis, 2,138 miles. Fijis to Brisbane, 1,762 miles. In all the trip covered 7,300 miles, and the whole course was over water, with stopping places fairly difficult to locate unless navigation was well attended to. This quartette of aviators may have made observation of' condi- tions over the Pacific that wil ex- plain why there was such a loss of life in previous attempts to span the distance between the mainland and Honolulu. Certain- ly their diary should be rieh in observations covering the condi- tions they experienced over the entire distance. Trans-Atlantic flights look rather tame when eompared to that of the Southern Cross. 2,400 SPECUI ATING WITH SAVINGS; WHEREIN LIES THE DANGER (From the New York World) It is probable that with the spread of the speculative mania the with- drawals of savings have continued during the current month. This ten- dency to risk the fruits of years of thrift in a margin account with a broker is something which cannot be viewed with complacency. At the moment a majority of those who have taken this risk can probably answer their critics by showing a nice profit --on paper. But amateur traders are prone to overstay their market; they are loath to take their profits so long as there is a prospect of a further rise. In this trait lies the danger. It is by no means certain that all of the paper profits will be carned or that the diverted savings will eventu- ally find their way back to the banks. The president of a local savings bank calls attention to the decline of over $14,000,000 in savings deposits in New York during the past month, and he cites this as evidence that many persons of small means have been tempted into speculation by stories of the great fortunes being made in the stock market. Yet in view of the market's per- formance it is really surprising that such a swall proportion of the say- ings deposits has been diverted into a speculative channel. The decline in total deposits in Manhattan dur- ing April amounted to seven-tenths of 1 per cent. Not all of this, more- Qver, went - into the purchase of stocks. PROTECTION OF HOME BUSINESS (From the Ottawa Journal) The drop in prices of the news- print industry is arousing consider- able comment throughout the coun- try, not as regards the consumers in this country, but on broader national lines, that a natural product is being used up to supply the United States at the expense of Canada. The Engineering and Mining Jour- The article alfo refers to the dia- mond industry in South Africa, the products of which are sold through a syndicate to maintain prices, and that owing to the recent alluvial dis- coveries there the South African Government has passed an act giving it power to limit the maximum quan- tity in value of precious stones. In the German potash industry overproduction and keen competition, resulting from too rapid dev elopment, caused the larger companies in 1879 to enter an agreement to limit out- put and determine distribution zones. Independents caused trouble, and in 1888 thie potash syndicate was form- ed, all sales being regulated by a cen- tral agency. The control persisted and received government recognition and assistance. After the war the Potash Law of 1919 made member- ship in the syndicate compulsory and placed control in the hands of a pot- ash board appointed by the Govern- ment. The functions of this hoard included supervision of the industry, fixing of domestic prices, and regu- lation of production. Later, power was given to the board to shut down unprofitable mines, compensation be- ing given for inactivity by means of a quota charge. This is an example of restricted production and the cen- tralization of a large industry under government control.
