Powers'and Stone Inc-, New York and Chicago FRIDAY, MAY 9, 1930 HOPES AROUSED Hopes that something definite will be done in the near future in connection with the long-deffered plans for the building of a city hall or administration building were aroused anew by the declaration of Mayor Mitchell 'at the opening of the collegiate and voca- tional institute on" Wi afternoon, Mayor Mitchell, in pointing out that the city council had never refused the money asked «froth it by the board of education, said the council was now considering doing something 'for the city. His words were very plain, for he said: "1 believe the city council is now in the ro to do. something for ourselves, and to * seriously consider the building of adminis. tion offices or a city hall." This is the most definite statement that Has yet been made on the subject. One would hardly imagine that the mayor would have spoken right out in meeting in this way thout knowing something of the minds of is. colleagues on the '¢ity council, and his tement gives some hope that the council ill, before long, come to a 'definite conclu- sion asto the plans to be followed. "It would be good news for the people of Oshawa to learn that it has been decided to undertake this project at once, for the need of central administration offices for the city becoming more acute as time goes on, t need can only be met by courageous gtion off the part of the council, and one can only express the hope that the mayor has Burately judged the mood of the city coun in making the statement which he did on esday afternoon, : » THE MUSICAL FESTIVAL "The opening of the Oshawa Collegiate and Vocational Institute this week was the big- gest event in Oshawa in many years, if not in the 'whole history of the town, but there remains another outstanding educational oc- casion to be observed in Oshawa before the present school term comes to a close. This is the musical festival of the public schools, which is due to take place in the auditorium of the O. C.'V. 1. on May 21 and 22, The musical festival is a function which "is fully deserving of the interest and sup- . of the publie. Under the direction of Richer, director of music in the schools, the children of Oshawa have made remarkable progress in this course of study, and the people of this city are due to have a very pleasant surprise when they attend the festival. An event of this kind is bound to stimu- late local interest in the musical arts. By . the training of children in an appreciation of music, the foundations are being laid for 'the development in the community of a mus- which exists to a very small extent at the present time. A festi- val which reaches into the homes of all class- #8 of citizens, and in which all classes of children are taking part, is bound to give a stimulus to musical education, and, in ad- dition, it promises to be a highly in and enjoyable event. The festival should' oye ,-and if the people of awa are fully seized of its importance, be attended by capacity audiences on: The Brantford Expositor, in an editorial it, t' that one: of the comment, go Rf Alm a Mads, iby Fhe Pros A R.

The New Zealand trade treaty was a good thing for them, for it prevented a real butter scarcity from developing in Can- ade, and kept the price of butter at a price which they could afford to pay. Now, with the treaty to be cancelled, the consumers will face a serious situation, for Canada is not producing nearly enough but- ter to supply domestic demands, and if the "supplies from New Zealand are cut off, or are hindered by high tariffs, the working "folks in. the stores, offices and factories will "see the price they have to pay for butter goar to prohibitive heights, But then, the New Zealand trade treaty made so powerful a political weapon to use among the farm. ers, that even the Conservative members rep- thought of taking up the cudgels for those who were finding their cost of living reduced by its operation. : Polities, however, brings forward some strange arguments. Now that the treaty is to be cancelled, we would not be a bit sur- prised to find those who were shouting most loudly for its cancellation condemning the government's decision to do so on the ground that it will mean an increase in the cost of living. We have seen things just as illogi- cal as that happen many times in an election campaign, and the one that lies ahead is not likely to be any 'exception to the general rule. INCOME TAX HIGHER One would hardly 'expect, in view of the depression which set in about the middle of last summer, that the people of Canada at the present time would be paying more in- come tax than they did a year ago, when conditions were thought to be booming. Yet it is a fact that they are doing so. The col- lections of income tax up to the present time total $44,000,000, according to the minister of national revenue, and this is $1,000,000 more than for the corresponding date of last year, The minister claims that many people are paying their income taxes in full this year, rather than taking advantage of the provi- sion for installment payments and this would among those who are income tax payers, This is a healthy sign, and if that money can only be placed into circulation as quick- ly as possible, it should have a highly stimu. lating effect on business. ADVERTISING DOES IT A gentleman who has considerable busi ness experience in the United. States and Canada has issued a pamphlet'in, which he sets out to show how Canadian enterprises may increase their sales in this country and abroad. He attributes the success attained by American manufacturers in disposing of their wares in the Canadian market to well- organized publicity campaigns. This, com- bined with a policy which studies the re. quirements of customers, and makes every effort to meet their tastes, has resulted in expanding sales, ousting articles of domes- tic manufacture which, it is admitted, are often superior, and putting other foreign competitors out of the running. But there is no reason why domestic concerns should suffer, says the author of this pamphlet, Mr, Victor Soucisse. Let Canadians adopt similar methods; let full and intelligent use be made of advertising media and the im. porter be met on equal terms in this respect and there can be no doubt about the result, he says. It is no good having meritorious commodities for sale, if their merits are not sufficiently made known. The days are past when good wine needed no bush, In the complexity of modern business advertis- ing plays one of the chief roles; it is to the 'goods which hive the largest and best pub- licity that patronage goes. ---------------- A -------- : EDITORIAL NOTES Some men never appreciate their children s0 much as when they are making out their income tax reports. Oshawa should be ready to give Sir Henry Thornton a hearty welcome when he comes here on Friday. "For God, our country and trut " was the motto suggested for the Oshawa Collegiate and Vocational Institute by one of the speak- 'ers at the opening ceremony. There could not be a better motto for an institution de- voted to the training of young Canadians. The Ottawa Journal says that Mr, Meigh- en, defeated in 1925 and 1926, is vindicated in 1980. But perhaps it is a fortunate p- 0 meet the changing condition ; The lawns and gardens of 'Oshawa are breaking out in all their 'spring glory." But it will require some hard work to make them retain. their beauty through the summer " 'months.

Now this Increase in the number 'of these white corpuscles is usually in proportion to the severity of the ailment, For instance if the num- ber in a certain amount of 'blood is 5,000, a slight afiment might send it up to 10,000, and a severe allment up to 40,000: You ean thus see how generous Nature 1s in providing these extra corpuscles to fight off the aliment, Now while this fact fs true, nevertheloss research physicians are now finding that if an individ- ual with an increased number of these white corpuscles, in le down quietly for an hour wnd at- tain complete physical and mental rest, he can bring down the number to normal, If however the individ- ual takes exercise the number In- Croases, Drs.

MARKET EXPERT SAYS 'EASY MONEY' UTOPIA SMASHED Laws of Arithmetic snd Principles of Economics Not Yet Abolished New York, May 9~--An inescapable conclusion to be drawn from recent developments in industry, business and finance is that "Utopia is still far away, and that the laws of arith. metic and the principles of economies have not yet heen a yolished," accord~ ing to E. H, H, Simmons, Presi. dent of the New York Stock Exe change, who, in his report for 1929, discusses at length the events that led up to the stock market's col. lapse last autunm, Asserting that the phrase, "New era," used in relation to American economic history since 1924 has been productive of "exaggerated notions of many kinds, and has been much ridi- culed after the 1929 stock market col lapse," Mr, Simmons says that, nev- ertheless, it is necessary to make al lewance for the many novel changes in business methods, whether con. sidering the events of the past two years, or the likely developments of the future. Particularly, Mr. Simmons says, one must consider the "vast growth of investable capital" in the past few years, "No accurate and comprehen sive statistics in this regard exist," he contends, "but evidence as to the great proportions this development has assumed is afforded by statistics relating to public security offerings, right financing, building and loan a#- sociation assets, savings bank deposits commercial banks time deposits and life 'insurance premiums, "Undoubtedly the United States ex- perienced an overissuance of securi- ties last year. Yet this fact only temporarily neutralized the nation's vast accumulation of investable funds through thrift, The creation of new capital through national savings has been a principal back-log of our na- tional prosperity in the immediate past, It continued on anything like the scale maintained in recent years, it promises to prove so again in the future."
