D, Tresidder, ' 'vepresentative, 4 : REPRESENTATIVES IN. U.S, Powers and Stone Inc, New York and Chicago SATURDAY, JUNE 28, 1930 YOLVING THE UNEMPLOYMENT PROB- LEM One af the chief objections which one can voice with respect to the Unemployed Work- ers Association, outside of the fact that it is a Communist body, is that it has no con- structive suggestions to make for the solu- tion of the unemployment problem, That, after all, is the root of the trouble of those who are out of work, It is employment they need, and the lack of it is due to conditions over which no one seems to have any con- trol, So this attempt at organizing the un. employed 4s bound to fail for lack of a con. structive policy. An instance of this can be cited from a meeting held in the city the other day, at which a Communist speaker from Toronto delivered. an impassioned harangue against the 'General Motors of Canada, Limited, and everybody concerned with it, for having found it neecssary to lay men off work and " "shorten the hours of labor. When asked for his solution of the problem, his only answer | was "Organize." "I "If 'the workers, simply by organizing, could 1'" 'set the wheels of the General Motors plant, or any other industry, running again at full speed, something could be accomplished, But the mere fact of the workers organizing is not going to sell a single extra automobile, and that is the only thing that will make the plant busy again, An true that many of the unemployed are in distressing conditions. That is an un. fortunate circumstance, and the man who can offer a solution that is practical for al- leviating this condition will be doing a na. tional service, But it should not be forgot- ten that the men at the head of large indus- tries are just as anxious as are the work. ers to see the wheels turning at full speed, Their welfare depends on the production of industry, just as that of the worker does, so it is only reasonable to suppose that they are doing everything that is humanly pos- sible to create markets for their products, and that, after all, is the only way in which the unemployment problem can be solved. Organization by the workers under the Communist banner can do nothing save to stir up employees aginst employers, and create a sentiment which is bound to react t the best interests of both classes, 'And in an intelligent community like Osh- awa, that is the last thing that is desired. MAKE IT A SAFE HOLIDAY With Dominion Day to be observed next Tuesday, the coming week-end is likely to be one of general holiday-making, with the highway traffic reaching its peak for the season. One can hardly think of heavy week-end traffic nowadays without wonder. ing what kind of a list of fatalities it will produce, Tn an effort to give an ample warn- ing to motorists to be more than usually careful during the holiday period, the High. way Safety Committee has inserted a large and striking advertisement in the newspap- ers of the province, 1t is significant that this advertisement is dayoted largely to stressing the dangers of _. "outting in" on a busy highway. A graphic illustration shows just how this causes ac- cidents, and a warning is given that highway traffic officers will be especially vigilant for thie who are guilty of thi practice, "In addition to this special warning, at. "tention is n called to the seven rules of 'safety which have been used as a basis for tite committee's campaign this year. On the eve of the Dominion Day holiday, however, it might be timely to again publish these "yules, which are as follows: 1. Have your car in perfect mechanical io particularly brakes, steering gear" a Gi divided attention to your ! , Giv un atte we FA i traffic, be sure there is a place for you in the traffic line ahead. drag attempt to pass. on curves or : entering 'main streets or highways, hing a railway crossing where a "View of the track is obscured, stop and 5 er vehicles try to pass you, let them pass 6, When making a right turn, keep to the | right of the highway: when making a left turn, keep to the centre, 7, Always signal before you slow down, stop, or change your course, and never hack up before ascertaining that the road behind is clear, : There {is little more that can be added fo. these rules, for if they were observel by "| ALLmoto rists, there would be few accl- dents And, after all, they can be bdled 1 down to three words, "Use Common Sens," for, if that were the motto of all who ve- ture on the highways as automobile driver, 'the week-end and holiday lists of tragedies would soon disappear, " DOCTORS ARE GENEROUS There is no profession which has to do #0 much work for nothing as the medical profession. Every doctor could, if he cared, reveal a list of patients he has treated but who, because of poverty, are unable to give him any remuneration for his services, That work is done as a labor of love for suffering humanity, a service rendered freely in order that the unfortunate ones may not lack for medical care and attention in their times of illness. The doctors and dentists of Woodstock, however, have gone even farther than that, 1t is announced that they have offered to give free treatment to school children whose parents are not in a position to pay for work which the public health nurses feel is neces. sary in the interests of the children's health, One of the criticisms which one sometimes hears of medical and physical inspection of school children is that recommendations are made far beyond the means of many parents, who simply cannot afford to carry them out, The announcement of the Woodstock doctors and dentists removes that objection so far as their city it concerned, hb Incidents like these confirm the idea that doctors are the most self-sacrificing of men, It is a noble profession, one in which the best of skill is often made available for patients without hope of monetary reward. But there is a reward, for there must come to every doctor, at some time or another, the realiz- ation that much of the rewards of this life are to be found, not in financial payments, but in the knowledge of duty well done and services freely given for the welfare of suf- fering humanity, ONTARIO'S FLYING MEN Reports of Captain W. Roy Maxwell, di- rector of the Ontario Air Service which is doing splendid work in the patrolling of the forest areas of the province as a safeguard against serious forest fives, give some idea of the magnificent work the aviators of this service are doing. A week or so ago, it was reported that, in the execution of his duties one pilot spent 156 hours and b minutes ifi the air in one day. This record, however, did not stand very long, for the other day another pilot, Bob Smith of Stratford, stay- ed at his post for 18 hours and fifteen min- utes out of the 24 hours. This gives the people of Ontario some slight conception of the work which is be- ing done by these intrepid airmen. The bald statement of facts, however, by no means indicates the nature of the service they are giving, nor the risks they are running every day, for the protection of the forest resouces and the pioneer settlers of the north country. Some day, perhaps, more will be told of their work than the mere statement that they were on duty so many hours a day, and when the story is written, it will be an epic of heroism and endurance that will arouse the admiration of all who read it. "CONSISTENCY, THOU ART A JEWEL" "Trade At Home" is probably the most widely used, and most widely abused slogan employed in present day business. A local merchant employs a brightly col ored envelope as a wrapper for small articles sold over his counter, Hundreds of these con- tainers are used in a day and go into thous- ands of homes in Cornwall and the surround- ing district. Printed In large type on the face of the envelope is the slogan "Trade At Home, Thank You!" On the reverse side is an advertisement and the line, "Printed in USA" . "Consistency, thou art a jewel.
