The committee which Is in charge ol the raising af the Welfare and Christmas Cheer hs frankly diss appointed with the response af the eitieens so far, There ls gratitude for the generosity of these whe have already made thelr donations to the fund, sines they have provided a splendid foundation on whieh to build, But the dalappointment comes fast that so far, comparatively few of the eltigens have #8 yet subscribed, In fact, alter making allows ances for eontributions from groups of employees of different kinds and for organigations, it ean be aid, quite' safely, that only shout five per cent of the homes of Oshawa are represented in the list to date, with the ether ninety-five per cent as yet unheard from, While there is no desire to depreciate the substans tial gifts whieh have been made by these whe, bee cause of thely eireumstances, are able to eentribule in & large way, there Is still abundant epportunity for the thousands who ean make smaller eantribytions, When & person makes & contribution to any aus, that contribution carries with it a personal interest in the gauss, The money given is, in & sense, ah fhe vestment, having made the Investment, the donors feel that they have a definite personal part in the mavement, and are intensely interested In Its sueeuss From that standpoint, the financial sueeess of the appeal fs not the only standard by whieh it ean be measured, 11 would be far more successiul if thew sands uf oitisons had given as they were able, sven if only in sums ranging from one to five dollark for these donations, while they would earry the fund wp to the figure whieh it is deslved to reach, a sum of about ten thousand dollars, would show a general ins terest In the welfare werk of the ety that would make for ite sompleta suoeens, For this reason, The Times once again joing with the officials of the Wels fare and Christmas Cheer Fund (n asking for & mare general support of their werk, and for the thousands of small contributions

to whieh that development may he used for (he upbuilding of Osh» awd The chief essential, however, is that it be made the subjeet of close study and wise guidance for the next few years, All the werk to he dene cannot be gompleted in one year, ner in two of three, but a start has been made, and, it is hoped, progress will he eontinued until Oshawa has a harbor sueh as many of ity eitisens have been working for during the past few years, and auch as will be a eredit to the eity and a real asset 10 ity future Under these eironmstances, the Chamber of Come meres is aang wisely In appelnting a special come mittee 10 study the future development and utilis von of the Oshawa harber, Such a committer ean find plenty of seeps for ussiul work, for during the next few years the intereata of Oshawa will have to be closely watehed, 10 will be necessary to make Fepresentations fo the government se that the work whieh has been started will be earvied through to its Jogieal conclusion, It will be necessary to make the best use of the facilities provided for the attracting of industries to which harbor sites are essential And all of this will have ite effect on the future of the eity, With a modern and eampletely equipped hare bor, Oshawa will be in a position 10 go ahead as it has never done before, and it is gratifying thar men of vision, such as Mayer Mitehell, G, W, Melaugh: Hw, Gordon 1, Conant and Leon Framer has heen ap: pointed to sideration, 30 that the benefits to be derived fram the provision of a harbor here way not be Tost, THE PROVINCIAL FINANCES Premier Ferguson may consider himaelf favored in What his provineial treasurer hay heen able © produce a Anancial statement for the fast fiscal year in which there 1a a surplus of over $2.500000, Comparing it

must be remembered, however, that Omtarie is moving forward, and that there sre, every year, fresh demands on the provincial tressury, The people are sonmvtantly asking for improvements in the facilities which have to be pald for out of provinelal funds, wand mrs constantly wsking for measures of rosin! ree form which add greatly ta the expenditures of the provinee, Demands for more and hstier highways, for extensions of the educations! system, and for the development of Northern Ontario are insistent, and the government must of necessity take the attitude that if the people desire thess added services they must he prepared to pay for them, That is & fairly sound principle to follow In & prevines whers the will of the peopls Is suprame, and I, as & result of seseding to the

J, Davis, that a quota be put inte effest aiaingt Canadians wishing to enter his country, In fast, such a step would be very weleome to many seple In Canada, who would ses in It & step, taken y the United Bates, towards keeping Canndians in thelr own sountry, It hos for years been one of the disappointing things In Canada that so many of the young people of this natlen should, on reaghing the age of mans hood and womanhood, and sompleting thelr eduas thon, foave Canada snd make thelr homes aeross the border, Canada ean ill afford to lose these Young people, and with the future of this eountry wesured an a land of great development, it should be possible for them to make Just as mueh of their lives In thelr OWN country as in any other, For that reason, those who believe In bullding up # nation with our own sons and daughters, Instead of tigwing them to go and Alling up thelr places by Inducing foreign Immigrants to come here, will be delighted If the proposal of Mr, Davis ls put inte affect and Is enforead, Tt will, If it does nothing else, have & salutary economle effect in Canada In that less of or nativesborn population would find Its way across the border to help in the bullding up of pres perity in the United States, but would rather remain in this country to have a share in its great and glovl oun future A REAL AMATEUR At the 1938 Olymuole Games, Perey Williams showed his heels 10 athletes from all over the world in the events In which he eompeted, In other words, he set the pace for them, Now he Is again leading the way In showing the world a new type of amateur athlete, Invited to make a trip to New Zealand to compete there, he has refused the invitation, simply heonuse his employer could not spare him away from his work long enough for the trip This Is something unusual for an amateur world ehamplon, It has been customary for sueh athletes to trouble very little about thelr gmployment when there was the prospect of a trip to some other coun try with a nies allowance for expenses, One has only 10 think of the athletes wha have, In resent years, come to the United States from European countries, as amateurs, for extended vislts, during whieh they had suMslent allowance for expenses to make it worth while for them te do so, And one ean also recall United States amateur athletes who have made quite a decent Nving out of expenses, But this young Canadian, Williams, Is of & dif forent stamp, With him, although he is a world champlon, his Job comes first, and his participation in athieties is merely his hobby, merely a sport which he enjoys, but which he places in Its proper prospec tive in his J's plan, This goss to show that his head has not been turned by the praises showered upon him since his victories at Amsterdam, and that
