REPRESENTATIVES IN U.S. Powers and Stone Inc., New York and Chicago THURSDAY, SEPTEMBER 25th, 1930 THE WELFARE MEETING Tonight the Associated Welfare Societies of Oshawa, an organization designed to co- ordinate with the relief an€ social service work of the city, is holding its first annual meeting. As was explained earlier in the week, there is a greater need for the ef- fective work of this organization than ever before, and if the needs of the distressed and needy families of the city are to be met during the coming winter, the Associated Welfare Societies have a great problem and a stupendous task ahead of them. It will require wise counsel and guidance to direct the affairs of this organization. For that reason, it is to be hoped that the attendance at tonight's meeting in the coun- cil chamber will be a large one, so that full consideration can be given to the plans put forward, and a strong and energetic board of directors appointed. The meeting is open to all citizens who are interested in relief and welfare work, and The Times joins in urging that there be a large gathering of citizens ready to give thoughtful and pains- taking consideration to the weighty prob- lems which will be discussed. WORTH WHILE OPPORTUNITY In the news columns of The Times today, there appears an announcement of the open- ng of this season's series of lectures under the auspices of the University of Toronto Extension Department. In past years, there have been series of University Extension lectures, and they have had a strong appeal to those who have attended them. Without exception they have been proclaimed. as well worth while, and those who have taken ad- vantage of this opportunity for educational lectures which are at the same time in- tensely interesting, will be found ready to enjoy them again this year. Unfortunately, there are far too few peo- ple taking an interest in the University Ex- tension Course. It is not a thing for the few, but for the many. It is not meant for a small group, but for the general enlighten- ment of the public on subjects of a cultural character. Culture should be an important part of the life of any community, and those who are sponsoring the University Exten- sion Course, are anxious to make these lec- tures available for as lafge a group as pos- sible. The fees are low, the calibre of the lecturers and their subjects is of the first rank, and it is to be hoped that there will be a large registration when the course is pened next Thursday evening. A NEW GERMAN THREAT A threat of a new character is sounded in the statement made by the leader of the Fascist party of Germany, which won a spectacular success in the recent general election in that country, although not suf- ficiently so to gain a clear majority. The election result was sufficient to show that Fascism and Communism are growing In power in Germany, and that unless there is a decided reaction against them before there is another election, there is a grave danger that they may be the controlling elements, This would be a serious menace to the wel- fare of Europe, for Adolf Hitler, head of the Fascist party, has declared that one of its first steps would be the repudiation of the Treaty of Versaillies and all that that means. There will be a policy of defiance and eva- sion of the responsibilities of that treaty, and a refusal to recognize that it is bind- ing on the German people. Le That is typical Communist policy. The Communists in Russia started off by repudi- ating all the obligations of the former Rus- sian governments. Now the Fascisti and Communists in Germany are prepared to go even further, and to repudiate the treaty by which the war of 1914-1918 was conclud- ed. What this might mean to Europe, and to the world in general is hard to contem- plate. ed and changed, until its application is far different from its original purpose. But to repudiate it altogether, to act as if it did not The treaty has already been twist- precipitate a situation which would be a dis- tinct blow to the progress of Europe and the prosperity of the world. It is to be hoped, for the sake of world peace, that the Fascisti and the Communists are never in a position of control in Ger- many, for that would bring a threat of world revolution that might well startle the rest of the world, and cause complications that would halt the progress of civilization for generations to come. ? TOURIST TRAFFIC Ontario has been complaining that there has been a decided decrease in the tourist traffic for the present year. Yet a special survey made for the Financial Post reveals the remarkable statement that there was, during the first six months of 1930, an in- crease of 27 per cent. in the number of tour- ist automobiles entering Canada. - There are two possible explanations for this. One is that if Ontario has lost patron- age from United States, other provinces of Canada have gained very substantially, and in that case, it is essential that this prov- ince should take a leaf out of the book of Quebec and the Maritime Provinces, and make wider use of publicity and propaganda to attract the tourists to this province. The other explanation is that the decline in tourist traffic through Ontario is more imaginary than real. It may be just an- other phase of the depression psychology which has taken hold*of so many people, and has made them talk hard times, whether or not they themselves have been affected by the business depression. This sounds like a more logical explanation. People will talk and when business conditions are not up to normal, unfortunately, the depression talk becomes greatly exaggerated, and tends to make listeners believe that everything has gone to the dogs. That is probably what has happened in Ontario with reference to the tourist traffic, and it would be interesting to know just what proportion of the 27 per cent. increase recorded for the whole of the Dominion in these semi-official statistics can be credited to this province. GIVE AND TAKE Premier Bennett and his colledgues have left for the Imperial Conference and the Im- perial Economic Conférence. And from old London, where the conference is to be held, advance stories are coming, predicting the probable course of these momentous events, In all the advance notices, the fact that Em- pire Trade will be a big subject for consid- eration is stressed, and it is quite obvious that. much of the time of the economic de- partment of the conference will be devoted to a consideration of ways and means in building up a much greater volume of In- tra-Empire trade.than at present exists. If the Imperial Economic Conference is to make any progress towards the goal greater Empire trade, there will have to be a drastic realignment of ideas on the part of some of the delegates representing the overseas Dominions, and of the Motherland. Trade agreements of this nature involve the making of concessions: No delegate from any country can expect that he is to secure for his country all the benefits of trade with- in the Empire, and give nothing in return. There must be compromise. There must be a spirit of give and take. Canada seeks an Empire market for her surplus wheat. Then she must be prepared to help the Mother Country to secure a Canadian market for surplus products. Canada seeks markets for manufactured products in Australia, New Zealand and South Africa. She must, there- fore, be prepared to offer concessions to these countries in return for the conces- sions which she is seeking to gain from them. These are the fundamental principles of trade agreements. They involve bargaining, if you will. They certainly involve compro- mise. The die-hard, the stand-patter, will make little progress in a conference of this kind, and Canadians must be prepared to face the fact that if the economic confer- ence is to be of any benefit to this country, then it will only be because Canada's rep- resentatives were willing to compromise and make concessions: to the Motherland and the sister Dominions. of Autumn is now supposed to be here, but it feels more like a hangover from summer. EDITORIAL NOTES It would not be surprising to find an ap- peal being made on behalf of starving Rus- siang, in spite of the Soviet's effort to dis- rupt the world's wheat market by dumping its wheat at any price. The Chatham News had a serious fire in _ its plant. The News has our sincere sympa- thy, but we hope the fire was not caused on account of the dryness of the paper. Speakers at unemployed meetings should make sure of their facts before they make accusations against civic officials. The Globe urges people to.eat more bread, so as to help absorb the wheat: sur- plus.

In or- der to collect it properly expensive machinery in the way of organiza- tion would be necessary, The do- minion government already has this machinery in operation and is in the best position to collect tax on incomes. There is no doubt that under the present conditions in- come tax is 'worked to death," and it would be a splendid move if some system were adopted whereby every man would be compelled to pay a fair tax upon his income once, and be done with it.

She was homesick --homesick as only a gizl can be on her first night in a strange school a hundred miles away from her mother. Then she heard the telephone ringing and her room-mate came running: "Hurry, Betty -- it's long distance. Maybe it's your mother". And it really was mother -- talking with her just as though she were in the same room -- and the whole world changed from grey to sunshine. School was fun after that, because Betty and her mother had a regular weekly visit by telephone every Friday night. It didn't cost much because they waited until eight-thirty when the lowest night rates begin. It amounted to about the price of a movie and it was worth twenty movies to Betty. It was worth still more to her mother. \ AR HR RR SS Ra VG ROT i A cit ey
