New York and Chicage THURSDAY, DECEMBER 19, 1929 AN OPPORTUNITY FOR GREATER EFFORT The decision of the subscribers of the Oshawa Lite tle Theatre movement not to let 'it die from non. support, but to carry on, operating on @ basis of voluntary effort for the balanes of the present seas yon, should meet with the approval of all these in the city who ure interested in the development of the cultural side of the community's life, It has often been asserted that Oshawa is a typieally materials istic city, with little time and Hetle inclination for, the finer things of life, The Little Theatre movement is u stiucere effort to disprove that assertion, and to prove that there is a place in the city for & movement that tends to create a love for the finer things of life us represented by the Lest dramatic art, It Is untortunatey of course, that the Little Theatre lias to lose the services of Joh! Craig, the talented and capable director, but it was frankly impessible to continue the season on that basis, The new basis of operation, whereby voluntary effort will be ape plied to the direction und production of the plays, should, however, strilie a popular chard in the minds "ul those who appreciate the educational value of the movement, Tt will provide a "splendid - opportunity { for eitlzens with interest in theatrical produetions, and with ability to get the best out of a play and the players, to show what they can do in this branch "of dramatic endevor, and ib 1s alse an, apportunity for those who are interested in the Little Theatre to show their appreciation of the efforts of those who are accepting postions of leadership In the movement, In fact, the new basis of operation for the Little Theatre is a challenge to its sponsors and its friends, It would be unfortunate if it should not succeed, for in that case Oshawa would lose something very much worth while, What is necessary is that those who have accepted responsibilities in connection with the movement should put thelr shoulders to the wheel, and push ali together to demonstrate that art has a place gven in industrialized Oshawa, and that there Lis inthe city.a group of people willing to work and sacrifice {or the sake of promoting a movement that has already become a popular institution in the com munity ---------------- A -- A Ao JOBS FOR VETERANS -- The announcement of the department of pensions "and patiopal health with respect to the finding of employment for veterans who are partially disabled, is a dirget challehge to the employers of labor in Canada, The department, through its gecretary, IL. H. Scammell, las annoynced a policy which, if age "gepted. tn the spirit in which it iy offered, should go » long way towards solving he problems of many 4 gx-service man who have beew unable to fit into their fornier vosations, A * The policy is one of seeking to find employment "dor these veterans by having them established in busi ness and industry, And, in order 10 encourage ems sployers to glve these men a @hatice, the department Difers to pay the first few months' wages for any of them, so that they will have an opportunity of ae quiring a knowledge of the business of trade in + which they are placed, without. loss to the employer "during the instructional period, "5 This plan is, to some extent, an extension of the sold scheme of vocational training, although It is far Shore practical, Ii the offer iy aceepted in anything fike a generous spirit by employers of labor in gen: gral, it will apen up the way for hundreds of ex- Bervige efi to become established in work which they can, in spite of their handicaps, perform with a proper degree of efficiency, And, after all, that is the best service which can be done to the ex-service 3 man, sinee it gives him an opportunity to become a 3 self-supporting citizen who does not need to depend "on pension or charity for the means of supporting himself and his family. A * A PARADOXICAL SITUATION §. Hon, Peter Heenan, minister of labor fn the fed- ral goverpment, has refused to call a conference of } bepresentatives of the provinces to consider the pre i Bent unemployment situation throughout the Dor "inion, In his opinion, such a conference is not ne. *gessary, because, he says, business and employment Tonditions are mot such as to give any eause for Salarm, And in support of that statement, he quotes figures fron 'his employment statistics to. show that '£ fhe record of men employed in Canada in November avas the highest recorded in that monthrof the year since these statistics were started, aud, in compari Jean with the United States, employment in thiy eouns ! Ny 20.5 per cent higher han in the country to the south, ! \ It seems rather strange, | conditions are as these dgures seems to indicate, tha here should be so v E oy 4 THE OSHAWA DAILY TIMES, THURSDAY, DECEMBER 19, 1929 ch evidence of unemployment throughout the Dos minion, It is certainly a paradogical situation that employment should be 'utlits highest level for this time of the year, and that at the same time there should be so much unemployment in nearly every city of any account in Canada, The thousands of mep who are out of work, many of them through seasonal slackness in the industriks in which they are employed, will be inclined to take exception to Mr, Heenan's attitude that everything is wll right, and that there is no need to do anything about it, Its trugi of course, as Mr, Heenan says, that basic: ally conditfons are sound, and that everything looks rosy for the future, It ju true, too, that when the soupopal slackness in some industries, such as the automobile industry, passes over, there will be an abundance of employment for many of the men now out of worl, But that does not affect the situation ap It is today, It is useless, for instance, to tell the workless people of Oshawa that there is nothing wrong, It Is an insult to the intelligence of those who are face to face with the same situation in To- ronto and other large cities to tell them that there is no need of doing anything, because employment figures are standing at a high level, In that respect, figures and facts do not agree, and Mr, Heenan wauld have been better advised to listen to the facts rather than to quote the figures, for it would seem as if this were one Instance in which it is quite poss sible for figures to lie, ANOTHER SUCCESSFUL FLIGHT The two fliers, one a Frenchman and the other an Uruguyuan, are to be complimented on their good fortune in spanning the South Atlantic Qcean, and In making a successful flight from Spain to Brazil They have succeeded where many others have failed, In an undertaking of this kind, success means glory and praise, and failure means death, And the mars gin between the two is so small that the slightest slip would turn success Into failure, The hagards are against success, Experience has proven this, for thelr are many brave men and capis ble aviators who are resting In unknown graves in the mid Atlantle, simply because something went wrong, und when flying over that wide waste of was ters, It does not take very much of a mishap to bring the fatal ending, What happened to those who never reached thelr goal, in most never bi known, "But for the two men who reached Drazi, even if they did crash while making » fokced landing near the coast, there will be nothing but the highest of pralse, although congratulations upen their gaod fortune are probably more in keeping with the ad venture which they carried through to a successful conclusion, cases, will TRAINING FOR AGRICULTURE The day has passed with only those men who have been found unfitted for any other cecupation wre considered suitable to follow the calling of agricul ture, of the farm who possessed unusual ability or brain should go to the universities and the cities, there to make their mark, while the dullards were left bes hind to carry on the work of the farm. That was before agriculture became the highly seientifle and commercialized industry that it is find W. R, Reek, director of the agricultural exper mental farm at Ridgetown, Ontario, declaring that the farms of the future must be operated by keene minded young men who know the commercial end of the work as well as the agricultural, It has at last been fully recognized that agriculture is one of the most complex industries of the present age, one which requires, from these who are in the rank and file of the industry, a greater wmount of specialized knowledge than almest any ether industry, It requires a knowledge of chemistry, of animal huss bandry, of the rudimentary princifles and the more advanced precepts of how to make two blades of grass grow where one used to grow, And, in addi tion, it requires a business training and a knowledge of marketing conditions and methods All of these are essentials for success in agriculture, and thus it is that teday agriculture is a challenge to the keenest and brightest young men of the rural communities, No longer do they need to go to the cities to find tasks to test their brain power, They can find them in seeking success on the farm, And when that success has come, it is quite in order to assert, it brings a much greater amount of independ. ence and satisfaction than can be attained by the following of a career in any one of the learned pre {essions For t9o long the idea prevailed that the sons today, Thus w PUBLICITY A DETERRENT (Editor and Publisher) It is interesting to note that the legal censorship of the English devorce court is becoming even too noxious for the court itself, Recently Lord Merris vale, chief judge of that court, announged to the press and public all of the facts in a "high society" cas wherein the offense was 30 indecent that the outs raged judge declared the people should be informed, A "friend" of the son of the marchioness af Curzon had invaded his home within four months of his mars riage and Lrokeh it up, Lord Merrivale said: YI have stated theso facts because in my judgment it is not in public interest that crimes of this kind should be committed ahd that the particulars of the offen should not he known to the world in which thes people live, One of the deterrents of misconduct is publicity," If this is true in one case, why should it not be true in other cases! To us, it seems anything but democratic for the ceurt to announce one scandal and cover others, even if the one published is a agrant offense against domestic honor, It is impossible to interfere with the orderly pros cesses of news without creating evils, no matter how good the motive may be, EDITORIAL NOTES This old warld would be a pleasant place to live in if all the people in it were as polite as prospective candidates when election time is drawing near, Have you given any thought. to the question of who you would lke to constitute next year's city counell, The councillors are the directors of the city, and their selection is an important matter, The appointment of T, A.
