THURSDAY, MAY 9, 1929 THE CRUCIAL STAGE The crucial stage is now coming near in the plans of the Oshawa Chamber of Commerce for the in- dustrial development of Oshawa. The Chamber di- rectors have, since its inception, studied carefully "he situation in the city, and have come to certain conclusions regarding those things which are es- sential before there can be substantial progress in the industrial field: These conclusions have led them to see the necessity of establishing an industrial area in Oshawa, and the erection thereon of buildings which could be leased or sold to industries seeking to locate in this community. As a result of this decision, two lines of action nave been adopted, and both are nearing fruition. The first took the form of a plan for the creation of an industrial area in Oshawa, and through the ac- tion of the Ontario legislature in passing amend- ments to the Bonus Limitation Act, it is now pos- sible for the city council to do this, providing the citizens vote favorably on the question. The city council is now engaged in the preparation of a bylaw to be submitted to the ratepayers for this purpose, and it is expected that the vote will be taken about the middle of June, at the same time as the vote on the purchase of the hydro and gas plants. This vote will be an excellent test of public senti- ment towards the development of Oshawa indus. trially. If the ratepayers vote favorably it will show the Chamber of Commerce and the city council that their action along this line has general approval, and that there is a strong desire to make the way easier for the establishment here of new industries. The second line of action taken by the Chamber of Commerce has resulted in the incorporation of a tompany under the name of the Oshawa Industrial Foundation, Limited. This company proposes to erect buildings for industrial purposes on the indus- trial area provided by the city, this being dependent on the outcome of the vote of the ratepayers. The company's prospectus has been prepared, and is being made ready for distribution with a view to having the initial stock issue of $150,000 subscribed by in- terested citizens. Here, again, the citizens have an opportunity to show their faith in Oshawa, and in the future indus- trial development of the city. No company of this nature can operate without capital, and it is essential that this capital be subscribed by interested citi- zens of Oshawa. The measure of support given to the proposition will show the directors of the Cham- ber of Commerce whether their efforts on behalf of the city have the support of the citizens, and will determine to a large extent the future plans of the organization. BANQUETING A SLAYER It is not often that a man is tendered a banquet because he has killed another man. Yet this hap- pened in London a few days ago, when a Detroit policeman, named McClellan, was feted by the city council because he had shot and killed a bandit on the road near that city. This incident shows the estimation which the pub- lic has of the services rendered to society by those who take a firm stand against banditry. The taking of human life is something which can only be con- doned under the most unusual of circumstances, and in this case the facts would indicate that there was justification for the killing. It has been proven that bandits with revolvers do not hesitate to use them when they find their plans being thwarted, and had the Detroit policeman been less prompt in using his 'weapon, he may have been the victim, rather than his assailant. The people of this country have become so thor- oughly aroused against banditry that it is not sur- prising to find this man banquetted for ridding the province of a dangerous gunman. Armed highway robbery has become all too common, and it is only because so few people are able to make a show of resistance that the bandits carry on their work so freely. While in a legal sense, McClellan had no right to be carrying a gun at all, yet it was well for him, and for the country generally, that he was armed on this occasion. THE UNITED STATES TARIFF It is as yet too early to comment with finality on the effect which the proposed new tariff schedules of the United States will have on this country. The measure in which they are incorporated has a long way to go before it becomes/law, and already there are signs that many of its provisions will be so bit- terly opposed both in the house of representatives - and the senate that the final enactment may be to- tally different from the bill as reported by the tom- mittee of congress. At first glance, however, it would seem as if the new tariff schedules, if they become law as proposed, will have a serious effect on several lines of Cana- dian industry, most of them having a direct con- nection with agriculture, The proposed increase of the tariff on dairy products, hogs and sheep means a great deal to the agricultural industry of this country, for these find large markets in the United States, and provide a profitable outlet for the pro- ducts of Canadian farms. : Those areas which are contiguous to the United States border, and which éxport to that country large quantities of milk, cream and milk products, will feel the increase in the tariffs on these ar- ticles to a very large extent, and the result might be a serious curtailment of the trade in these pro- ducts. The increase on the duties on timber pro- ducts, too, 18 expected to be highly detrimental to the lumbering industry of Canada. It {8s too early as yet, however, to say that retalia- tory measures should be taken, for, as has been pointed out, the proposals have so far to go before they become law that anything might happen to them before that time. STILL PROSPERING One of the soundest indications of progress and prosperity in Canada is found in the building fi- gures from month to month and year to year. Thus it is gratifying to find that building con- struction work this year is excéeding all previous records. For the month of March of this year, the value of building and construction contracts amounted to $27,125,000, a higher total than ever recorded in the same month for any previous year. For the first quarter of the year, in spite of the winter season the total was close to one hundred mil- lion dollars. An interesting factor is that these contractors were well distributed among the various fields of building and construction work. Engineering contracts led the way with $31,000,000, the total for residential building was $18,000,000 and in- dustrial building accounted for another $11,000,- 000. And of this vast total, nearly forty per cent. was in the province of Ontario. As an index to conditions in Canada, these figures are very satisfactory. New construction work always means progress and prosperity, for there must be both expansion and wealth to war- rant new building. Thus there is a strong indica- tion that Canada's tide of prosperity now stands higher than it ever did before, and that there is great confidence that this prosperity wil continue. EDITORIAL NOTES The people of Hamilton insist on remaining on s'andard time. Perhaps they need that extra hour to waken up down there. A young man advertises that he would like to learn the latest dance steps. In these modern days, every dancer invents his own. "Rain is hitting the Farmers helow the belt," says a newspaper headline. Perhaps it is causinz them to get their feet wet. With almost three candidates for every seat, it cannot be said that there is a lack of interest in the general election in Britain. The Kingston Whig-Standard says that tests have proven that black print on yellow paper is the most legible of all. But there are few news- papers that would risk using it and being called, "yellow" journals, « Other Editors' Comment ~ STEPS TO PREVENT WAR (New York Times) So long as it is the conviction of sober states- men that a generation must pass before there can be a possibility of another such conflagra- tion it is more and more coming to seem the part of wisdom that steps should be taken in the in- terval in order to make sure that the world will never pe set on fire again. A FIVE-YEAR OENSUS (Vancouver Province) In the rapidly growing sections o fthe Dominion a census every ten years is too long a period to secure data of population and trade statistics. Grants and other appropriations are frequently awarded on an out-of-date per capita basis. The adoption of a five-year census would remedy an unnecessary injustice. HOW TO BE 100 (London Sunday Express) 'When a man becomes 100 years of age he is us- ually interviewed by reporters and this ingenious race invariably comes back with a story that the centenarian owes his great age either to drink or teetotalism, to early rising or much sleep, to smoking or non-smoking. The truth is that healthy old men never think about their health. If you wish to keep out of the grave put your health out of your hand. A CARRY OVER (Regina Leader) Mr. Veniot claims that he never dismisses a post- master unless it is shown that they were dishonest, inefficient, or have been active at election time, presumably in the interest of the opposite party. Mr, Veniot, we would judge, is a carry-over from the old-style politician who believed that the vic- tors were entitled to the peaches, cream, spoons, and werviette and tablecloth. The public will gath- er that where there is so much smoke at Ottawa about Mr. Veniot's dismissals there must be some Il - « Bits of Verse - » A WISH sevens oe.

TODAY'S LIST OF AUTO ACCIDENTS By James W. Barton, M.D. THE TONSILS AND THE APPENDIX Perhaps you think about that body of yours and the wonderful way it does its work, ; You think of the nervous system and how it controls® everything; of your eyes, your ears, nose, the love for music, art, beauty of any sort, how the food is converted into energy; about the wastes thrown out of the body; of the powerful little pump, the heart, of your lungs and skin and their ventilating ability. And then you begin to think about the tonsils and also about the ap- pendix, and you just wonder why the Creator put them into the body if they were not meant for use, You wonder if © doctors are doing the right thing by removing the appen- dix and the tonsils, You think a little further, and you remember about friends who have been afflicted with rheumatism or rheumatic attacks for years, follow- ed by serious heart complications, Everything has been done without avail and then when the tonsils are removed with all their poisins, your friend gets better and has no fur- ther attacks. Similarly with the appendix. You see a friend have an attack of appen- dicitis. The operation is delayed for a day or two and by the time the surgeon operates, the appendix is about ready to burst, and severe complications, perhaps death itself, is only avoided by hours. Now what about the tonsils and appendix ? Well they are in your body for a purpose. The tonsils filter out poisons from surrounding tissues and as long as they can "take care" of these poisons and kill off their organisms, then the tonsils are helping the body. When the tonsils are unable to do this work, and get enlarged and fill- ed with these poisons and the organ- isms themselves, then just as a filter on a water tap that is filled with matter from the water, becomes a danger instead of a benefit, so with diseased tonsils. They should be removed. Similarly the appendix has the job of getting rid of a portion of the harmful organisms and their poisons from the intestine. x When the appendix, like the ton- sils, is unable to do its job properly, its lining tissue gets so inflamed and irritated that it sets up such a ser- ious condition it must be removed. The thought then is that tonsils and appendix have uses, but when they fail to do their work properly, they must be removed for the safety of the body itself.
