C. A, Dunning, ¥indnce Minister in the MacKenzie King administra. tori will' have an immediate effect in this city according to a report this morning from the groceteria of the T, Eaton Company. This 'ompany is reducing the price on all ranges of their tea by seven cents a pound so. that citizens of Oshawa will be immediately bene- fited by this reduction in duty. Other local stores who were quer- fed by The Times this morning have not as yet had any orders re- garding any reduction but the manager of the Oshawa Wholesale who controls the chain' of Superior Stores in this city informed The Times that if other stores were re- ducing their prices it was probable that his stores would do so also. He claimed that this would be a distinet loss to the company and the retailers but a report from leading tea blenders and importers states that if an immediate reduc tion is made they will sustain the loss of the retailers, The reduction handed in the 1930 budget takes from 0 to 106 cents a pound of tea but it is ex- pected that this will be equalized on all grades and a general reduc tion on these grades will be the hame. Mhis explains the reason why the T. Eaton company has reduced all their blends seven conts, If the wholesale Importers were not to sustain the loss to the re- taflers it would mean a matter of five to six weeks before the reduc tion would come into force as all present stocks at the reduced prices would have {0 be bought be- fore a noticeable difference would be made.

Irwin, local lawyer, has been retained to act for Lomax. Danfel Galloughaly the second man to be about noon today on a similar am- ount of bail, Lomax, it is under- stood, contends that he has nothing to fear from the investigation and subsequent events, Investigation Thorough From the quantity of goods now In hands of police, it is very evident that the tuvestigation conducted by the police has been thorough and effective. Police officers, however, stated. emphatically that their cause had been damaged consider- ably by premature publication in the Toronto morning = papers on Thursday, and by radio broadcast- ing which followed. Ony officer sta- ted that the investigation might have shown more startling results had the papers laid off unt) today 1t was made clear by the officers that absolutey no Information had been given to the papers on Wed- nesday or Thursday. The officers are certain that more goods would have been recovered but for this premature publicity, Homes Raided All day Thursday the officers, armed with search warrants, en- tered house after house, and from several goods in large or small quantities were taken, blankets be- ing in the majority, It is stated that clothing and food were also found, and owners of the houses searched were obliged to make an oxplamation as to where goods found tu belong to the Hospital came from, Today the investigation is pro- ceeding, but in the meantime it is the talk of the county town, with various rumors afloat, It was announced at the Court House this morning that a more complete statement wold be forth. taken inte custody was released coming later today, Bay of Quinte Branch W.M.S.

Sills, Corresponding Sec- retary, also gave a very compre- hensive report of the year's work, In reviewing the work there is much cause for gratitude. The reports from the Presbyterials are very encourag- ing: There is a growing conscious. ness nong the young people of the great significance of the cause of mis sions, and we trust the enthusiasm which comes from the inspiration of this anniversary of Pentecost may work out an endeavour to do and dare greater things for the King of Kings, Statistics show: 304 auxiliaries; 11,344 members; givings, $74,204.21; 7 Associated So- cities; 16 members; 25 Y.W.A's; 696 members; $6496.59; 57 Mission Cir. cles; 1,200 members; $5798.68; 161 Mission Bands; 4,238 members; $7, 120.12; 38 Baby Bands; 753 members; $84.48; 74 CG.LT.; 1,016 members; There are three new auxiliaries, two Mission Circles promoted to Y, A. and one new Mission Circle, There are nine new Mission Bands and three new Baby Bands.

Systematic giving is be. coming more general; the envelope system is growing in favour, The group system is being employed while there is increasing co-operation a- mong the various societies, Several Presbyterials sent a dele. gate to the Whitby Summer School. Mrs. H. T, Thompson, Secretary of Christian Stewardship and Fin. ance, stressed the fact that so far as we exercise the three-fold division of stewardship in prayer, in possessions, in personality, in so far do we ac: complish our financial objective and further the Kingdom of Stews ardship is the Christian law of live ing, indeed, it may be called life, it self, What shall we do to press on to victory in 1930?

Thanffoffering service, a World Friendship service missionary plays, bales packed an 'baby's layette made. As | feature of the year's was the issuing of the new ene nt cards, World Friendship ral. for teen age girls were p were extremel. r work, Two maxinims are especially worthy of note, "Approach all pers sons in the spirit of respect or eth. ical love" and "Approach all facts in the spirit of science" 1f our girls have a real experience of Jesus in their own lives through vital worship and serving of others and have attitudes of respect of just. ice and of sympathy with others they will be prepared for the responsibilis ties of life. Mrs. E. B. Cooke, speaking for Associate Helpers department, said that in this we have a department whose whole task is to reach and enlist women who are not yet mem- bers of the W.M.S, 133 new members have been enlist. ed in 1929, making a membership of 1,490. Contributions $1,674, 113 have joined the auxiliary 'during the year, Systematic giving is one of the aims of this part of the work, Mite boxes are used. It is a grand work when our women cannot come to the meeting to take the meeting to them, If the benefits of this department were really known, no auxiliary would be without one, In every congrega- tion there are women debarred from attending the meetings. To reach such and to link them with the W. M.S. is our task. To enlist even one woman is to render a very great ser- vice to the Master. Mrs. P. J. Jull, Strangers' Secre- tary, gave a beautiful picture of the work done all over Canada by this Department. Our Strangers' Secre- taries are using the leaven of loving kindness, to cheer the lonely, bring brightness to the sick, make paths straight for the feet of the young going about doing good to all the people they can, in all the ways they can. 2304 strangers visited last year, One sent supplies of wood and coal to a needy family, another took care of a mother, a new-born babe and eight small children, Such acts are being carried on all the time, The work with boys and young men is very worth while. Ong secretary re ported 12 young men as her especial care Tourist camps are visited, 898 re. movals were reported, 1994 patients in: hospitals were visited, ood of Temperance Mrs. W, H.
