"THE OSHAWA DAILY TIMES, TUESDAY, JANUARY 7,.1930 PACE THREE Successful Candidates Pledge Their Ross Elected Reeve of East ~ Whitby in Largest Vote in History Ex-Reeve Warren Dearborn Again Defeated by Sitting Reeve, Majority for Ross Being 147--Vote Was 721 to 574 WARNE HEADS POLL FOR COUNCILLORS New Aspirant for Council Honors Receives 636 Votes--Hart and Scott Re-elected and Councillor Glover Defeated In spite of being handicapped by an illness which kept him confined to his home during the period of the campaign, John Ross, reeve of the township of East Whitby, was re-elected for another year of service by a decisive majority over Warren Dearborn in yester- day's election, the vote of the two candidates being 721 to 574 in favor of Mr, Ross. The two West- mount sub-divisions gave Dearborn a substantial majority over Mr. Ross and the returns for these of the Township indicated that the 1920 reeve might be defeated. he results from the northern polls and from Harmony, however, swung strong- ly in favor of Reeve Ross, and were more than sufficient to elect him by an even greater majority than that which he secured over Mr. Dearborn at the election of a year ago, when the same two can- didates were in the field. The great interest in the vote yesterday was indicated by the fact that the total vote, 1295, was the largest in the history of the Township. The election for the three coun- cil seats brought about a surprise result. Everett Warne, one of the new aspirants for township coun- cil honors, heading the poll with the total of 636 votes, and replac- ing Edgar Glover as a member of the council, The two other men elected were both members of the retiring council, these being Maur- ice Hart, who was second with 623 votes, and George L. Scott, with 599 votes. Glover, former council- lor, had 569 votes, thirty less than the lowest successful candidate, while Henry Wilkins, who was last on the list. had 357. W. A. Lavig was re-elected dep- uty-reeve by #eglamation. The detail votefor 'the town- shin of East Whitby is as follows: FOR, REEVE Harmony Westmount (8S) Westmount (N) Thornton's Corners ...

The trees added a genu- jne Christmas touch and made the streets quite attractive. RAIN AND MORE RAIN Rain and more rain seems to best deseribe the prevalent wea- ther conditions in Oshawa and dis- trict this week. The season seems more like spring than winter and it is hard to believe that there was any snowfall at all during the weeks preceding. DIVISION COURT Division Court opened here this morning, with Hig Honor Judge J. Ruddy, of Whitby, presiding. There are 46 cases to be heard today and a long session is expected. Tt Is probable that three sessions of the court will be held each month due to the large number of cases which have to be handled.

CARLISLE GIVES ADDRESS OF BROAD SCOPE Unemployment, Immigra- tion and World Condi- tions Referred to An address of unusual interest and broad scope was presented by C, H. Carlisle, Goodyear Tire and Rubber Co., of Canada, at' the regular luncheon meeting of the Rotary Club held in Welch's Parlors, yesterday noon. The speaker epitomized his speech nimself when he described it as "What we are? What we have? How we obtained what we have? And what it costs to «btain?" "This is an age of intense com- mercialism," the speaker stated. "We are living so fast that I sometimes wonder 'whether Wwe get a real glimpse Ca life." J World Conditions Referring to world conditions, Mr. Carlisle ventured to state that Canada occupied a unique and enviable pogition. She had not a great unemployment problem on her hands like Great Britain, neither did she have to face the difficulties now faced by Ger- many. In many respects she was much better off than the United States because of ihe fact that Canadians were on the average petter educated than the Ameri- cans, and Canada's government in- stitutions were less complicated and easier of operation. ; Commenting upon the many in- ventions of the age including the telephone, telegraph, wireless, acroplane and many others, the gpeaker said that he wondereu whether we fully appreciated their value, and realized the time and nconvenience which they saved. Civil and religious liberties, he said, had been won after much | struggle, sacrifice and bloodshed | | and yet many failed to appreciate | these advantagoes, | history revealed clearly the 'tre-| | mendous struggles which had veer | made for these things in the past. | wo done int What, he asked, had payment for them? ¥xhaustiag Resources Carlis]l~ he'i no brief tor | those who would exhaust all the natural resources of the countr) or the benefit of the present gen- eration. | "We are taking oll, R Mr. | coal and ll minerals from the sr-und and we | CLIFFORD HARM AN Northwest Ward W.

Captain James Andrew, Internationally known as! a builder of racing yachts, and one of the last surviving members of the fraternity of old-time lake cap- tains, died at his IL me in Oak- ville today in his eighty-fifth year.

"Our ...cest wealth is | nlso being exploited at a tremen dous rate, It we do not conserve we can not tell how things will last." The sccurces of power | being rapidly developed never before had there been a greater demand for power. One source was the weight of water and anotlier combustion, In the use of fuel for power only 25 per cent, utility was procured while in the use of fuel f.. ueating only 10 per cent utility was procured. The waste was tremendous, the speaker added, and challenged men to devise means whereby it could be avoided. Unemployment caused by the in- creased use of machinery was one of the problems of the present day which was touched upon by Mr. Carlisle. As a striking exampie of this he cited figures from his own business showing that in 1919 the company produced 3,600 tires a day and employed 8,600 men. Now however it was producing au average of 10,600 tires a day and employed 2,200 men. He felt how- ever that this was a question which would lend itself readily to solu- tion. The hackneyed statement that Canada's most imperative need was for a greater population was doubted by Mr. Carlisle. He point- ed out that there was no shortage of men eith-r on the farms, in the mines or in the lumber camps. On the other hand he stated the United States had developed most rapidly and mot great difficulties in dealing with her mixed popula- tio . Canada and the United States had had one hundred years of peace, but in the .peaker's opin- fon peace would be more difficult of maintenance {if either one ot the two countries .ccame over crowd:1 and the means of living wero thus more difficult to obtaly In the course of his address Mr, Carlisle referred to the pleasant associations which he had had with first the McLaughlin Motor Car Co. and then with the company as Gen- eral Motors of Canada, Ltd. -{e had come in touch with many Oshawa people in business and in society and had fcrmed a high opinion of them and the city in which they lived. The speaker of the day was io- troduced by G. D. Conant who de- seribcd him as one of the Canadian captains of industry who was known from coast to coast, George W. McLanghlin, president of the Chamber of Comma:ce, moved the vote ot thanks in which he ex- pressed tho appreciati.a cf all pres. ent for the splendid address which liad beer presented ry Mr. Carlisle, "We have heard a very thought | provokirs specch," Mr, McLaugh- lin commented, "and I would like to throw out this cie ruggestion.

B. Mitchell, the various successful candidates in the clection contests yesterday addressed the large number of electors who had crowded themselves into the building to see the bulletins being crected giving the standing of the candidates. Members-elect of the new city coun- cil, the Public Utilities Commission and the Board of Education all pledged their best for Oshawa in 1930. The mayor had announced that a meeting would be lield in the city council chambers following the re- ceiving of complete returns, but the figures were so slow coming in that he called the electors to order while they were still watching the bulletins, and asked the successful candidates to address them. Returns Slow Coming In Seldom have the returns from a municipal election been so slow in compilation as they were last night, The rcason for the delay was the large number of ballots that had to be counted, there being five sets of results to be compiled by each de- puty returning officer, For thé most part the deputies co-operated splen- didly with The Times in aiding the newspaper staff in compiling the re- turns, and The Times heartily thanks the officials for their help in this respect, A large number of girls, as well as the entire news staff, were kept busy at the office of The Times compiling the returns as they came in, posting up bulletins for the benefit of the assembled electors, and answering hundreds of telephone calls from people who desired information on the result in the city as well as in the neighboring municipalities. It was after nine o'clock 'before the first poll, that of the city hall, was received, and it was after eleven o'clock before complete returns had been tabulat The results in the north-west and Cedardale wards were known first, while the others were particularly slow in coming in, due to the larger number of ballots that had to be counted in the poll- ing subdivisions of these wards. Mayor Calls Meeting . Shortly after ten o'clock, when some of the results were known and others were showing a fairly definite trend, Mayor Mitchell mounted an improvised platform and called upon several of the candidates to speak. "I am sorry that the, bylaws were received so poorly by the city," said the mayor in opening his remarks. "I am sorry for the aldermen who, I think, should re- ceive some remuneration, but the (Continued on page 2) Details of The Vote In Oshawa Elections FOR ALDERMEN SOUTHWEST WARD Yet a study of | Boddy 82 80 176 107 303 163 176 421 Chmara 184 202 110 208 704 Cameron 158 244 Carnell Jackson South West Ward 1 2 74 3 Total South East Ward 4 0 NT 7 Total North West Ward Conant Fowlds 57 53 .8 9 Total North East South West ~ Ward Anderson 87 Total South East 85 200 132 423 History clear'y $l that the na. tion which disrerards these moral and spiritual valueg will surely go into decline." 103 1208 161° 1219 Jackson Bunker, Macdonald and Hawkes clected, CEDARDALE McDonald 7) Kirby 34 Boddy, Jackson and Sulley elected.
