By watching the efforts of the city snowsshovelllng gangs, it was eusy to understand why the streets wer not cleaned off mere expeditiously" than they wiry, The sugary texture of the snow made It almost hin possible to wee the tractor and snow pleligh, while attempts ta shavel It Into wagons were a waste of In addition, the congested traffic in the busi ness seetion hampeied the work of the snow-shovell- ere to such an extent that thelr efforts were nullified by the constant flow of ears, which threw the soft snow all over the street almost as quickly as It was thrown to the side, --- . Under all these circumstances, the clvie officials are moras worthy of wympathy than eriticiom, and they did well to have the streets in the condition they did this morning, Storms of the type experienced this week arc Ward to handle, and citizens should try not te be unduly unreasonable in thelr criticisms of thesy who are laboring hard, under difficulties, to restofe conditions to normal FEWER FAILURES It is a» striking thing, In view of the stock market crash which shook the financial centres of this cone tinent "during the month of October last, that that same month, shows a marked decreases in the number of business" failures reported in the Dominion of Canada, One might have been justified in expecting un serious repercusslon from the stock market debas gle, and that Its results would ho felt throughout the whole of the dSusiness and industrial fabric of Canada, Yet such was not the ease, lustead, there were fewer business fallures in October, 1929 than in October, 1028, and less money lovelved in Habilities than in either of these months, While there were more failures in Qotober, 1929 than in September, the labilities were much less, The figures whieh are given in this connection by the Defiilnien Bureau of Statistics interesting They are as follows Qet, 1029 Assignments 176 151 200 Liabilities 2,080,232 $5432.73 $413,108 In Ontario, there were, in October, 54 fullures, as compared with 57 in September, and 86 in October of 1928 These figures bear out the oft-repeated statement that the stack market erash did net have a very sen ous effect on business, and that it did wot affect the fundamental soundness of financial and dndustrial conditions In the Doeminlen, Canada might well ¢ois gratulate bself on having its business world estab lished on 80 firm a foundation that u record of this kind was possible, > ---- i A BOON TO WHITBY (Whitby Gasette and Chronicle) The action of the ratepayers of Cobeurg in turn ing down a bylaw to purchase from the Ontario My- dro Electric Power Commission the water, light and gas plants in that town, will be of considerable ben fit to Whitby in years to come, Cobourg Hydro utils ity users will continue tq pay their present and probs ably higher rates but instead of the surplos from the operations of these planta going to the town they will go inte the coffers of the Central Ontario Sys tem helping to reduge the fate now in ¢ffect in White by and other places included in thiyg system, ' Cobourg i the first municipality in the Central Ontario Sys tem to turn down a Hydro purchase bylaw, It may also be the first municipality to regret it, The Cobourg Sentinel:Star, which strongly favored the purchase, attributes the defeat of the bylaw 1a the introduction of polities, personalities and matters for: olgn to the question, This {5 most unfortunate, for figures show thas the Hydro for years has made a nlee sum of menay from the sale of water, light and gas In Cobourg whish the town wight better have, The Town of Whithy, which a few years age, voted 10 become an active partner in the great Hydro ens terpeise, owna ita own distribution pladts which have been considerably improved of late, and today rales for Nght and power are as low, and in some cases lower, than in many towns of \Vhithy's sle¢ und fm. portance, are Sept, 100 Qet, 1028 "EDITORIAL NOTES | Now is the time to make ready for making 19% Oshawa's greatest year, Every day which passes means one day which te do Christmas shopping, 5 nuit du] There is still room for many more donations ih the Welfare and Christmas Cheer Fund, , Y-------- Men are seported to be chewing less tobacco, Their interest has apparently shifted to the radio plug, w---- Harping on. poor busioess will help to mak busi- ness poorer, That is why the optimist usually comes out en top, less in 5 EA One of the things which Heary Ford might include fn his museum of old relics for future generations to study is a figure of 4 pedestrian | we---- A comtemporary comments that Russia, in banning Christmas, 8 trying to attract the fathers of \ families from other countries, *.
