TUESDAY, JULY 23, 1929 THE NEED OF WATER FOUNTAINS Visitors to Oshawa, as well as many of the citi- zens, are complaining bitterly of the dearth of water fountains to be found on the streets of the city. In these dog days, a cooling drink of water is one of the most eagerly sought methods of relief from the heat, and yet motorists coming through this city have to be told that there are no fountains on the streets at which they can be accommodated. There is a fountain, it is true, at the corner of King and Simcoe streets, but for some weeks it has allured only to disappoint, for there has been no cooling" stream coming from it, 1t would not cost a great deal to instal a number of water fountains at convenient points on the streets of the city, but this would give a much appreciated service to the citizens, and also to visitors. Oshawa cannot expect that visitors will have a very high opinion of its facilities when they seek a drink of water in vain, It may be, of course, that this 1s under consideration by the proper authorities, but, it so, the season of the year when the need of water fountains is greatest is here, and a little action would be much appreciated. . COMPETITION FOR INDUSTRIES That cities all over Ontario are awakening to the fact 'that competition for new industries is ever be- coming keener is evidenced by the action of the city council of Guelph in appointing, for the first time, an industrial: commissioner, and in choosing for the post a man who is well qualified to serve that purpose. Oshawa, of course, has already an industrial com- missioner, but more than a mere official is required if industries are to be secured. The man in that position can do much, but only if he has the right kind of co-operation, and has the materials with These materials consist of facturers are looking when they desire to open a new factory. Up to the present, the Oshawa industrial commis sioner has been handicapped in carrying on this part of his work. The city council, however, in deciding to create an industrial area of fifteen acres in extent, is giving at least some measure of co- operation, which will enable him to offer something tangible to prospective industries. With that encour agement, he will be in a much better position than heretofore to meet the competition of other cities, and there are much better prospects of securing re- sults than there have been for the past two years. OSHAWA PROBLEM (St. Catharines' Standard) This is the time of the year when there is a let down in automotive production and apparently this annual let down is felt at Oshawa, which prides it- self on the name, "Motor City." refers to the situation, in part, as follows: The greatest problem which is facing the city of Oshawa today is an economic problem, that of . overcoming the condition of seasonal unemploy- ment which is common: to the workers in the automobile industry everywhere. Every year this condition arises, and, under present manufactur- ing and selling conditions in the industry, this* condition seems inevitable, There is a hope that this year it will be overcome to some extent by an increase in the amount of export business de- veloped in the local plant of the General Motors of Canada, Limited, and there may be a real hope in this direction. After all, there is only one corrective of the bn dition complained of. That is the building up of It' was particularly, felt when Ford was working out his new model. In Ontario, some towns depend mostly on the textilesingustries. In Brantford, there is a good array of factories but when the farm implement industries are slack, it is . severely felt. The Standard has preached, ever since the forma- tion of the Chamber of Commerce, the building up of a diversified industrial fabric. Almost any indus- try which can be named will have its ups: and downs. But if only occurs after a long period of years that all industry is depressed or upset. The Great War in its aftermath produced this effect and the present generation will hardly witness another catastrophe like it. "To have industries which will absorb a goed proportion of female laber, and indus. {vies of the iron working order, strengthened by the paper manufacturers and electrical equipment fact tories is an_ ideal condition, and a survey of the situation in St. Catharines will shew that this city is pot far from the ideal, It is something which our 4 » & The Oshawa Times ; i No town or city should have , all its eggs in ene-industrial basket. Detroit, a great motor car city, has witnessed very acute distress when ' {he trade was slack. THE OSHAWA DAILY TIMES, TUESDAY, JULY 23, 1929 industrial' boosters should never lose sight of for a moment. Stability is far more essential than the high but temporary tide of prosperity over a few months of the 'year. < - - © . ; THE RIOTING COMMUNISTS Toronto has had another taste of Communistic riots, this time right on Yonge street. Communist agitators, 'enlisting the services of girls and young 'women, for a long time defied the efforts of the police to break up their gathering, and the wonder is that no blows were struck in the melee. The police, of course, have met with charges of using their wea- pons on Communists before, and were doubtless "guarded in breaking up the mob of Sunday night. There is a growing suspicion, however, that the authorities (in Toronto and other Canadian centres are far too lenient in their handling of Communist rioters, They have no useful place in any com- munity, but devote all their energies to stirring up strife in the ranks of the workers, afid to circulat- ing their seditious propaganda, directed against the. maintenance of British institutions of government, law and order. There are limits to the endurance of this kind of thing, and to thinking people it would seem that the limit has already been reached, and that the time is ripe for drastic action against those' responsible for riots such as occurred im Toronto on Sunday night. NO NEED FOR AN ELECTION A despatch from Ottawa says that there is little likelthood of a federal election in the near future, that a combination of circumstances makes it ex- ceedingly unlikely that there will. be any general appeal to the electorate of the Dominion to elect a new parliament until 1931. The despatch gives all sorts of reasons for this viewpoint, but, strange to say, all of them are linked up with political expediency. They can all be boiled down. into the assertion that there will be no elec. tion until 1931, because the federal government does not consider that it would! be' good political policy to hold one before that time. The average citizen of Canada would be much more impressed were the decision to hold no election until 1931 based on common-sense rather on the mere hope of the government continuing in power after the vote. After all, there is no reason in the world why there should be a general election until the govern- ment's legal period of office: has expired. There is no great, pressing question to be decided by a general appeal to the people. The country seems to be mak- ing good progress, business is in a healthy condition, and until there is something definite on the new tariff of the United States, there will be no subject of such importance as to warrant putting the country through the tiresome business of electing a new pai- liament, General elections are not a good thing for busi- ness generally. The uncertainty as to how they will result, and as to what the effect of a change in government would be reflects itself unfavorably on all lines of trade and commerce, and creates a situa- tion from which the country takes many months to recover. Thus, unless there is some pressing public need which demands an expression' of the people's will, there is no reason why parliaments should not continue for the full length of time al- lowed by luw, thus saving the people of Canada from going through the throes of an' election campaign more often than is really necessary. CHICKEN STEALING _ (Farmers' Sun) Hold up a bank and, if caught, you will get short shrift. Rob a farmer of his chickens and you will likely get off scot free. We read of an Oshawa chicken thief arraigned before the local magistrate, found guilty and after paying the costs of the 'court. and making restitution being allowed to go on sus- pended sentence, despite the fact that a juvenile swore on the stand that he had gone. with the' ac- cused several times to steal chickens. Here appag- ently is"a man making a profession of chicken-steal ing and at the same time contributing to juvenile delinquency by engaging a youthful accomplice in' his nefarious trade, convicted and let off without punishment. The chicken thief should go to jail. EDITORIAL NOTES Canadians will rejoice at the success of the Do- minion's marksmen at Bisley, with the possible ex- ception of Agnes MacPhail.

Looking forward seems to be his policy for the protection of the rights of the men he serves. BRITISH FACTORIES (St. John Telegraph-Journal) A number of acute British obser- vers have lately expressed the view that British investors and manufac- turers have not realized their op- portunities in Canada, noi merely in relation to the sale of British goods but establishing branch factories in the Dominion." Such action would be of immense benefit to Canada, and therefore to the Empire. This coun- try is steadily enlarging its export of manufactured goods, It is no lon- ger concerned merely with the ex- port' of matural products. British capital invested in Canadian factor- jes for export trade should find a good field, and by expansion of our foreign trade strengthen the posi- tion of the Empire in an economic sense. TRAINING OF CHILDREN (Montreal Star) A stinging indictment of parents and guardians who were directly charged with being responsible for the creation of emotional conflicts in the minds of their children which led to mental instability or to ec- centricities of temperament on the border line of insanity, was launched at the session of the Canadian Medi- cal Association by Dr. Baruch Sil- verman, who has devoted years of study to the problems of mental hy- giene. It will come as a shock to many persons to hear that there are more men and women in our mental hospitals and asylums than there are patients treated for physical ills in all the hospitals of the city and that one out of twenty-two children born is destined to become a patient of a hospital and to remain under treat ment for the remainder of his or her life. 4 - Bits of Humor - IT ALL DEPENDS Mistress: Did I see you kissing somebody in the garden this morn- ing, Sarah--the milkman or the post- man ?

Barton, M.D. INSULIN HELPS KIDNEYS DO DO THEIR WORK I have tried to liken the structure of the liver to the cggs themselves and to cardboard divisions that hold the eggs in a crate. The eggs repre- sent the liver cells and the carboard divisions represent the framework that holds the liver cells. Now when you have an inflamma- tion. in certain tissues of the body the regular tissue gets replaced. by fibrous tissue which is just like the hard white scar tissue resulting from a burn, Thus the liver gets inflamed, the framework "increases in size; which leaves less room 'for the liver cells themselves. 'The lining of cells them- selves also get inflamed. The result is less liver cell surface and more hard fibrous tissue. This is what is called sclerosis or harden- ing of the liver. However the liver is a very large organ, the largest in the body, and it keeps working away doing its best although often more than half of it is so hard that it is not much use. Now the liver can get to the point where the jobs it has to do are too much for it and various things hap- pen. One of these is the swelling of the limbs and lower part of abdomen because the kidneys cannot do their own work and the work of the liver also. An Italian physician reports a case of anaemia in which there was also this swelling of the feet and abdo- men due to too much water being retained in the body, He tried using a liver diet and the results were most surprising. Whereas before the use of liver diet the kidneys failed to get rid of more than 20 ounces of fluids, with the liver diet they got rid of four times that amount, that is 80 opnces. After a few days of the liver diet as the swelling had been greatly re- duced the liver diet was stopped, and on the fourth day the kidneys only removed about 30 ounces instead of The liver dict was then resumed and the kidneys removed 80 ounces daily again. / At the end of 15 days more, the swelling in feet and 'abdomen had cmopletely disappeared. The thought then is that if you can keep the liver free from infec- tion from bad teeth, tonsils, or other source that it will enable the kid- neys to do a perfect job in getting rid of fluid waste from the body. Also, the liver should be kept in good condition by not cating too much, especially rich or fatty foods, (Registered in" accorddnce with the Copyright Act).

Melntyre Hood, Member Provincial Executive, apd one - ARTICLE No. 8 One of the subjects of general in- terest which occupied much time and tought at the provincial convention of The Canadian Legion was the teaching of history in the public schools of Ontario, Faced by a ma- gazine article of a reliable nature, written: by a man of some authority, in which it was stated that books of history, piled and published in the United States, and primarily for consumption: in this' country, were being used in Ontario, the delegates showed their interest in this problem by first rejecting a resolution because it was not deemed sufficiently com- prehensive to deal' with the situa- tion. The main anxiety of the conven- tion seemed to be to see that the children of Ontario were given, through their history books, a proper appreciation of the magnitude of Canada's part in the war, It was sug- ested that certain articles written y Major George A. Drew and ap- pearing in. a Canadian 'magazine should. be incorporated. into the school books, byt this was not be- lieved to be just the right thing, and so the matter was sent back to the resolutiens committee to wrestle with anew, with the result that the fol- lowing resolution finally was given the approval of the convention. -- School History "That in the opinion of this con: vendoun, the school children of to- day are not sufficiently well inform- ed in the history of Canada's parf in the Great War and it is imperative that immediate action be: taken to instruct them to counter-act the in- fluence of undesirable articles and propoganda, which is desseminated throughout Canada in 'certain period- icals.. Be it therefore resolved that the Provincial Command of the Can- adian Legion lay before the Minister of Education for the Province of On- tario, their request that the Honor- able Minister take action at the very earliest opportunity to have this mat- ter rectified and that a suitable amendment be made to the present Canadian history as taught in the public schools of the Province of On- tario to include the part played by Canada in the Great War and pre- ferably that this amendment be com- piled by men who, in the opinion of the Honorable Minister of Education, are qualified to do so from the re- cords in the Canadian archives," 1J \) s 1 Another subject of general interest which was given much discussion was that of unemployment insurance, there: being. a sf feeling that a plan of some kind, based on the ex- periences of other countries, might well be adopted by Canada. It should be clearly borne in mind that there was no thought on the part of the delegates of putting a premium on unemployment, but rather of merely exploring the field of present-day knowledge of this subject, and mak- ing this exploration the basis of a scheme which would best suit the needs of Canada. The thought of a "dole" for unemployed workers was not in the minds of the men who drafted the resolution. Rather did they have in mind a scheme to which all workers would contribute while employed, so as to help them over periods of unemployment, just as dis- ability, sickness and accident insur- ance can be utilized by paying pre- miums in time of good health in order to secure benefits while unable to work on account of sickness or accident. Here, again; however, there was no desire for hasty action on the part of the convention, for the resolution which' was passed recognized that the subject was too important for a snap judgment, and merely recom- mended inquiry and investigation. The resolution' was as follows: The Resolution "Whereas, an increasingly large number of Ex-service men are find- ing it difficult to obtain any employ- ment, be it resolved that the ques- tion of employment of Ex-service men be given serious and special consideration by municipal, provin- cial and federal authorities, and fur- ther be it resolved that we concur in the findings of the Select Standing Committee on industrial and Interna- tional Relations which. is as follows: --That the necessity of providing some method of unemployment in- surance is one that will inevitably have to be dealt with before long, as 2 solution, in part, of the industrial problem of tha present. day. "That we accept and endorse the rinciple of unemployment insurance derived from the State, the Employer and the Emplcyee. In this connes- tion, we would point 'that a some- what similar cecision was arrived at by a Royal Commission on Indus- trial Relations, which dealt with this gubirct in 19190 : . "That as unemployment insurance has been in' operation for a number of years in Great Britain; and has recently been thoroughly investigated by a strong committee, and the sys- tem. re-organized on the basis. of their' report, your. committee would suggest, to the Government, the ad- visability of obtaining' from Great Britain, expert advice on the subject which would be of service in the 'on compulsory contributions A formulation of a plan or plans suit- able to conditions in Canada, and ini arriving at an estimate of the amount of unemployment in Canada;"and in arriving at the approximate cost cf unemployment insurance, "In order that this matter might be further dealt with, your: Commi:- | tee recommends to Parliament that | at the. next Session this question be again referred to the ittee on | Industrial and International Kela-| tions." + A Hospital Problem The next resolution was one. which dealt with the regulations in conncc- tion with hospitalization of 'ex-scr« vice men, and touched 'on a. deplore! able problem which has been met) with in some localities. There have been: cases in which men have gona into hospital in cities other than those where their homes are located, and, especially in mental cases, have! refrained from letting their wives or relatives know where they are. In some cases, this has been done in order to deprive their families of money to which they would be ene titled, this having happened in some cases of desertion of wives and chils dren, It was the feeling of the cone vention that this situation could ba overcome if the procedure recom- mended in the following resolutions were adopted :-- "Whereas there are cases where men going to other centres for medi« cal examination are placed in hospi« tal, ofterr leaving their families with out word of the move and in ignore ance of the patient's whereabouts. "Therefore, be it resolved that the Canadian Legion, Ontario provinciak Command, in convention assembled, urge upon the Hospital authorities that in all cases of men going into Hospital, notification immediately be sent their next of kin this being especially necessary in the case of mental cases." : The final resolution. of this series was one referring purely to the in- ternal working of the Legion, and provided that past presidents of the Ontario provincial command would automatically sit on the provincia} executive for one year as the ime mediate past president. (Tomorrow's article will deal furthes with the resolutions passed and cone sidered by the convention.) { BAN ON AUTO BAIL § BONDS I REPOR ence Plan for Motorists Denied by Minister London, Ont., July 23.--Efforts to abate the troubles of motorists] in their clashes with the law prom- ise not to mitigate the drivers' wors | ries, but to add to them, according | to information received here today. Provincial traffic officers working out of London have been summar- ily ordered by Toroiito to discons tinue the acceptance of 'bail money' from drivers; but insteaa to take American tourists to the nearest magistrate. .
