REPRESENTATIVES IN U.S, Powers and Stone Inc., New York and Chicage TUESDAY, AUGUST 26, 1930 A LAST OPPORTUNITY This evening's public meeting in the Memorial Park will provide the ratepayeys of Oshawa with thelr last opportunity, be- fore going to the polls, of hearing a pub- lle discussion of the bylaws on which they are to vote on Thursday of this week, The previous meetings held for this purpose have not been any too well attended, but with Indications of an Increased Interest In the bylaws, there Is reason to hope for a larger attendance tonight, It Is essential, If an intelligent and repre« sentative vote is to be cast on the civic building and police station bylaws, that the ratepayers should be fully Informed as to every phase of the subject, The Times, and those members of the city council who have been supporting the bylaws, have done their utmost to carry out this plan of education but, po far as the public meetings are con- cerned, there has been little disposition on the part of the ratepayers to be informed, Tonight's opportunity should not be over- looked, At this meeting, it is expected both sldes of the question will be put forward, so that the meeting should be an interesting one that will give the ratepayers every fa- cllity for having thelr own questionings set at rest. For this reason, it should be largely attended, for without Interest in civic mat. ters of such Importance, what hope can there he for real progress in Oshawa RED HERRINGS Opponents of the bylaws for the construc. tion of a civic administration building and a new police station are using varied argu. ments In thelr efforts to throw the electors off the real track in this matter, For in stance, Mr. Stacey points out that the city, instead of erecting the proposed buildings at a cost of $153,000, should spend about $350,000 for the same purpose. He also suggests that the subway construction should be undertaken, as a means of pro. viding employment, rather than the erection of the proposed buildings, \ These suggestions, of course, are merely herrings dragged across the trail to lead the ratepayers off in another direction, It Is * more than likely that were the larger pro- posal for a $360,000 building before the el. ectors, these same men would be found in opposition to that, In other words, their at- titude is that of obstructionists, who are opposed to anything that savors of develop: ment and progress, because the expenditure of money is involved, The ratepayers of Oshawa should not al- low themselves to be turned from the right path by these alternatives that are being put forward, but should make sure of pro. gross and employment by voting for the by. laws, RETURNING TO NORMAL E. W. Beatty, K.C., president of the Cana- dian Pacific Railway, should be enrolled at once as & member of the Dynamiters' Club," whigh has as its ohjective the creating of a spirit of optimism that will make business better, His address at the opening of the Canadian National Exhibition was exactly in line with the objects of the club, and shows a confidence in the immediate future that should spread all over the Dominion, In his address, Mr. Beatty saidi-- "In the light of the eloquent evidence of what we have done, and of the history of this country, both immediate and re- mote, no Canadian should doubt that Canada will shortly emerge from the pre- sent temporary depression, and prove again its inherent strength and the san. ity and reliance of its people." Mr, Beatty, as shown by his words, is a strong believer in the theory that "Prosper jty is just around the corner," and he is sooking to spread that theory to other peo- ple. The stronger a hold which that truth . "takes on the people of Canada, the sooner will the corner be reached, and prosperity be with us, But it requires optimistic think- ing, optimistic talking, and optimistic work. ing to make conditions better, so that there is a tremendous value in speeches such as that ot Mr, Beatty, who knows better than most Canadians that business is on the up- grade, and that in the very near future, there will he a return to normal prosperity. THE MADE-IN-CANADA CAMPAIGN The campaign for the purchase of made- in-Canada goods Is gathering impetus, At the annual provincial convention of the Can- adian Legion last week, it was made the subject of a strong resolution, in which Legion branches were urged to take a prom- inent part in this campaign, It was the be- lief of the sponsors of this resolution that the Legion, as a patriotic body, might well give leadership to such a movement, and might seek the co-operation of other bodies in doing so. Premier Ferguson has also announced that the Ontario government stands ready to sponsor the movement, and will shortly launch a publicity campaign, using the radio and the newspapers, in an effort to push the sales of Canadian products of the farm and the factory, as a means of increasing em- ployment, In his announcement of this, he BAYS! "We are determined to show to the people the real qualities of our products to demonstrate the value of our own markets--to prove to them'the advan- tages of buying at home, In short, we want to establish a greater measure of co-operation between consumer and pro- ducer," Under such leadership, the campaign ought to be a successful one, It only needs intensive and sustained publicity to make it so, and in this effort, there should be complete co-operation between the govern- ment, the producers and the retailers who have to finally pass the goods on to- the consumer, Merchants should be interested in this, not only because it will Increase thelr immediate sales, but because it will, hy providing more employment for Cana- dian workmen, place greater sums of money in clreulation to make business better for them, The circle of money works around through the manufacturer to the employees and the retailer, and back to the manufac. turer to repeat the process, so that by en- couraging the public to buy Canadian-made goods wherever possible a new eyele of pros. perity can be hastened, and everybody will benefit accordingly. WHO IS TO BLAME? It is Interesting to note how many people are still obsessed with the idea that busi ness is bad and is going to remain bad, Ir respective Of the fact that in many cases they have not been affected at all by the depression in business, they are holding back from buying things which they need, jus! because they have heard that times are hard, Many such men are earning Just as much money as before, and are, indeed, better off, hecause they are not spending it, but they are victims of depression psychology, and cannot be tempted to loosen up their purse. strings, In the final analysis, such people are large. ly to blame for business being depressed, In- dustries are below normal because people who can afford to are not buying their products, And there is only one way in which this can be remedied, If those people who have not suffered from the depression would buy as they did at normal times, and, of course, buy Canadian goods, the back of the depres slon would be broken. Money would be placed in circulation by being pald in wages, and it would go around the circle to pay more wages and more wages, and thus stimulate business to a tremendous degree, "Purchase for prosperity" would seem to be another appropriate slogan for the present time, and it should be encouraged by every possible means, EDITORIAL NOTES Are you a Dynamiter? Optimism may not feed a hungry man, but it will help to keep his dinner pail filled up in the very near future, Every voter who has a real interest in the welfare of his community will support the bylaws on Thursday. It does not matter much where the new police station is to be erected. The main thing is to see that the bylaw for its con. struction is passed by a large majority, The province of Quebec has a record num- ber of men at work on the highways of the province, thus helping to solve the unemploy- ment problem. It would be interesting to know how Ontario stands in this regard. Next year's census will include a count of the number of people unemployed, It is to be hoped that by then there will be very few to count, That special session of parliament atill seems a long way off to the man who has no job and no money, It is ten years since Alcock and Brown crossed the Atlantic in sixteen hours, and, as the Stratford Beacon-Herald says, that re. cord still stands, Stratford Beacon Herald: The Bennett cabinet contains nine lawyers and just one newspaper editor, That's not bad as it has always heen recognized that .one editor needs that many lawyers to watch him, KEEPING MOSQUITOES AWAY A number of years ago I sccom- panied a couple of chaps on a fish- ing expedition Into a wild part of the country, Wa were warned about the mos quitoes and each of us carried a bottle of citronelia ofl, In addition to an net for over our head and face, It woemed to me that J was Ap: plying this oll to my hands simost avery minute. because the mosqul- tons kept away for about thet time and then hegan Lo come near Again, I determined on something that would "stay" longer, and on my next trip used half olive oll and halt oil of citronslin, This was quite an Improvement, but 1 eame across a recipe the other day that looked so good to me that I want to pass it along to my read ors, It wan given hy Dr. C, Dover of Caleutta It wan citronelin oll, 4 ounce; spirits of camphor, '%Sounce; codars wood oll 14 ounce, and white vase: line 2 ounces, The vaseline should ha melted, and the other constitu ants then added, the mixture being well stirred.
