Tresidder, representative, REPRESENTATIVES IN US, Powers and Stone Inc.. New Yark and Chicago FRIDAY, AUGURT 1, 1080 A GREAT EVENT FOR OBHAWA ? It was welcome news, and surprising news to many people, to know that the dredging work at Oshawa Harbor had been completed, and that it Is now ready for na. vigation, And it was more welcome news still to learn that, through the activity and good offices of the Oshawa Chamber of Commerce, a regular frelght steamer ners vice in and out of Oshawa Is to be inaug- urated on Thursday of next week by one of the steamers of the Tree Line Navigation Company. This will be a great event in the history of Oshawa, It will mark the opening of a new era of growth and development for the olty, since, with freight steamers making Oshawa a regular port of eall, it will only be & matter of a short time before the harbor is seething with activity, and Oshawa is en- joying all the advantages of water-borne commerce, . It will not be long, either, he- fore industrial development of a substantial character will follow on the opening up of the harbor, and the city, because of its fa cilities for water-borne traffic will enter on a new phase of its growth, The completion of dredging, = of course, does not mean an end of the harbor work, At least, we hope it does not, There is much still to be done before the harbor plans reach finality, but this Is the beginning, and the continuance of the work depends on the ex. tent to which the harbor facilities are used, This should be borne in mind, and every en- couragement should be given, by those in a position to give it, to the shipping com. panies which decide to make Oshawa a regu. lar port of call, In the celebration next week, of the offi. cial opening of the harbor, it should not be forgotten that a large measure of thanks is due to the Chamber of Commerce for ita share in bringing about the arrival of the first lake freighter at Oshawa, The Cham- ber of Commerce, Mayor Mitchell and his colleagues of the city council, Mr, W, H, Moore, M.P-elect, and others, have worked assiduously for the development of Osh. awa's harbor, and it will be a source of great satisfaction to them all when the first freight steamer ties up to the dock at Osh. wa harbor, A SPLENDID BRITISH ACHIEVEMENT It in not surprising that the arrival of the British dirigible R,:100 at Montreal last night was made the occasion of a great pub- lie celebration, The long flight across the Atlantic from England, made without fuss or oatentation, was a great achievement for British engineers, since it showed that they need not take a back meat to those of any other nation in the designing of long dis. tance aircraft, There had been some trepl- dation in the minds of many people as to whether the R-100 would come up to expec. tations, This was Intensified by the long "drawn-out And exhaustive teats which were made before the flight started. And the wisdom 'of this has heen proven. It has been the British way to make sure they are right and then go ahead, and the applica tion of that principle has resulted in the sue- conn of the flight, . As a single flight, the trip itself may not mean much, But as the beginning of a reg- ular service by dirigible hetween Britain and Canada it may mean a great deal, For one thing, it has proven that the facilities which have been provided by Canada for the landing of wiant dirvigibles are ample "for the oraft of that type, and that the Montreal airport can be looked upon as a [apart equipped base for ships like the R- 00, a | ot be expected that the aevial N Ju A and the Motherland will be started at once just because the flight of the R-100 has been successful. There will be other teats, and it will only be when service Be Yorn that it will become a regu. ar route of transportation and communioa- tion, But a start has been made, and one can look ahead to the day 'n the not far distant future, when: it will be possible to travel acrosa the Atlantic, in less than three has been thoroughly sur. days, as a regular feature of transportation service, without the discomforts which, to many people, make an ocean voyage hy steamer a nightmare, EI RETURN TO PARTY POLITICS 'One thing which has been accomplished by the election campaign of 1980 Is that it has definitely marked the decline from im- portance in Canadian politics of third par. tles or groups, This had been a gradual process, slowed up In coming into effect by the fact that since 1925 the government in power has had to depend for its very exist- ence on these groups of sympathetic sup- porters, They have held the balance of power, and while they have admittedly been closer to the government in their political Ideals than to the opposition, this has helps ed to perpetuate them, The election of Inst Monday, however, de- prived them of that position of importance, The new premier and his government will have a clear majority within their own par- ty, and will have no need of support from any third group in order to pass through the legislation they wish to pass, This means that the twenty odd members bear. ing the titles of United Farmers, Progres- ives, Liberal-Progressives and Labor, will not have the samo status in the new parlia- ment as they did in the old, They will lose their effectiveness, and that will mark thelr finish, It has taken ten years to bring this about, After the 1021 election, there were 656 Pro- gressives in parliament, and they were a powerful Influence in moulding the policies in Canada, In the 1025 and 1026 elections, however, their numbers were sadly deplet. ed, and the 1080 election has about complets ed the work, By the time another elegtion rolls around, it is likely that there will be a closer return to two-party government, and a definite end of the ern of third parties or groups will have been reached, Third partyism has never had a long reign in Can- ada, and the fate of the party recruited di rectly from the agricultural classes and elected as a class party has been definitely decided by the defeat of all but a handful of ita candidates at the polls NTOP THE FOOL WITH A MATCH (Montreal Star) The very great majority of forest fires are the result of sheer carelessness on some- body's part, Every government in the country spends fortunes on fire protection, Our forests are patrolled, regulations are nailed on thousands of trees and buildings across the country and yet one fool with a match can undo the work of years, ruin ir reparably not only miles of forest, but in nome canes, the very ground on which the foreat stood, and endanger, if not actually destroy, human life, The forest Is very lovely at the dawn of spring, It should be free to all who care to week it, but If its annual slaughter goes on us It has been going on for years at the hands of those who should be ita protectors, the governments of all the provinces will have to follow Nova Scotia's example, There are manifestly many people who cannot be trusted in the woods in spring time, It may be necessary to keep all peo ple out until the danger be past because of their eriminal folly, EDITORIAL NOTES The King supporters found that New Zea. land butter was slippery stuff to play with, There in a lot to he sald on both sides of most arguments==hut a great many people can hear only one side, Back seat drivers are all right=when they are willing to change tires after a hlowout, ; And some people are actually giving the new government credit for the fact that na- vigation opens in Oshawa Harbor next week, The average man only needs to play a round of golf on a Tom Thumb coprse with his young son to realise the superiority of the rising generation, Pools of water would be much more aos ceptable to some parts of Canada at press ent than wheat pools, Nowadays, when a man says he haa just played eighteen holes of golf, it in necessary to ask what kind of golf he means , Even although a magistrate haa decided that miniature golf courses can be operated on Sunday, it is to be hoped that their own. ers will not defy public opinion in Ontario by taking advantage of this declalon, We wonder if the Kitchener Record, afs ter ita strong support of Mr, Euler in the election campaign, will now revert to ita forgrer status of an independent newspaper. The name of Stephen Leacock haa been mentioned as possible chairman of the tarift board, Byt the popular impression of Mr, Leacock is that he has a tendency to make .
