THE OSHAWA DAILY TIMES, THURSDAY, OCTOBER 9, 1930 CPR. President F de Western Canada Cheerful . Montreal, Que.--An inspiring _ cheerfulness and confidence in the future was noticed among the peo- ple of Western Canada by B. W. Beatty, chairman and rodent of the Canadian Pacific Ratlway dar- ing" his recent tour over that com- pany's western lines, according to a statement he issued on his return. Mr. Beatty returned to Montreal last Saturday afternoon. He finds that the wesern population of Can- ada is confident that it will require much more than the slacking off of business noticed in recent months i to injure the West permanently, or «even. seriously to retard its devel- + opment. He was accompanied by '® party of directors of the railway company and 'prominent 'business men from the east. Steady Progress "The entire party," said Mr. Beatty, 'has come back greatly re- . assured as to the outlook for a steady progression of general busi- ness with, in all likelihood, a well. defined uptura in volume making itself evident next year. "The crops were, on the whole, 'yery encouraging. The total yield will be considerably above that of last year and greater than was anti. cipated a month or two ago. While 3 in some 'districts they were far 3 from good, in the north and more % particularly in the Peace River { country, they were excellent. The 3 quality, too, is generally good. al- # though in some districts recent i rain and snow have delayed thresh- £ ing and may to some extent have + lowered the grade. The decline in + wheat prices naturally has had a % serious effect: upon the purchasing £ power of the people, and u return % to such pronounced prosperity as 5 we have experienced in the past, de- L pends to a large extent, upon the % future course of the wheat markets 2 and that of the markets for such 4 other commodities as this country % produces in large quantities. The & outlook in this respect is not at the present time clear, but I see no reason to believe that a return to more active business conditions should not be accompanied by at least a gradual upturn in values. Courage Unshaken "In the meantime, the West is not grumbling, Farmers and busi- ness' men are'facing conditions as they- find them with a stout eour- age born of an unshakable confid- ence in the country in which they live. There are already evidences that present conditions are bring- + ing about' re-adjustments that in 2 the Jon2 run will'establish agricul- 2 tural industry upon a sounder basis. 'A much wider spread of mixed farming is one of these. If the de- cling in wheat prices effects this in a general way throughout the West, it will not have been an unmixed evil? MFT. Beatty said that he and his party were much imprassed by the developments that had faken place in the Peace River area since they weré two years ago and the same might be said of north Saskatche- wan where the dian Pacific has Im nt branch line oxtension work going forward. Splendid farm lands were being cleared on every side and there continued a good flow of new population in that direction. From the Peace River area this year there would be shipped out about seventeen mil- SSEANASANAAL am EE EERE LRAT VRE REY lion bushels of all graifls which was approximately double the crop of 1928. This country was proving eminently adapted to stock raising and mixed farming. Improvement Seen .Conditions as the coast were &lso re-assuring. "Business men there," sald Mr. Beatty, "are cheerfully optimistic regarding the future and state that already there is notice- able a general improvement ia the movement of trade. The fact that this season has seen considerably larger shipments of wheat through Vancouver than up to this time last year is an encouraging factor. "One of the purposes of our trip this year was to ascertain what ex- tension work might be taken in hand and gone on with so that the Capadian Pacific might 'assist to- wards the reduction of unemploy- ment. The result has been the im- portant program of extensions which we announced the other day and in which we are co-operating with the Government campaign to provide work. Later on there may be something to say bout further extensions in the Peace River and surveys are going forward in con- nection with the outlet. from there to the Pacific ocean. Activity in railroad building in the past has brought temporary prosperity to this country and this contemplated work should greatly assist in carry- ing over now. "I feel that at a time like this, capjtal expenditures should be di- rected towards the placing of trans- portation facilities where thoy are most needed leaving luxurious ad- juncts to travel for more prosper- ous times. In these extensions it is the aim of the Canadian Pacific to carry our rails the gates of as many farmers as is possible and thus to give them the advantages of reasonably convenient and there- fore less expensive transportation for their products most of which must find ultimate markets over- seas. By such policies as these the company will retain its acknow- ledged position as an up-building force and a steadying influence in the economic fabric of this coun- try." Mr. Beatty and his party visited the Peace River on the way west later passing through 3anff and Lake Louise to the coast. On board the Princess Norah they encircled Vancouver Island and spent two days at Victoria. The return was over the Kettle Valley Raflroad to Kimberly and Trail Where the Sul- livan' mine and the Consolidated Smelter; were visited. The fruit rowing industry of southern Bri- tish Columbia was found to be in excellent shape. Large quantities of fruit were being shipped and the quality was reported good. Daily Service From British Columbia the party returned north to Prince Albert where Mr. Beatty's special train in- augurated a. daily service between Regina and that cityover the new Lanigan-Prince Albert branch. At Nipawin the party crossed oe Sask- atechawan river on the néW bridge and inspected the branch line work going forward there. The return was through Winnipeg direct to Montreal. Travelling "with Mr, Beatty were Sir. Herbert Holt, Sir Charles Gordon, W. A. Black, and R. S. McLaughlin, all of whom are Oshawa Tom welcome. No charge.

DISCUSSED § Novels, Stage, oe, Dancing And A Petting Parties Are = : Cited Boston.--In addition to the fact that "both girls and boys have to wait overlong for their marriages" Alfred Worcester, M.D,, of the Dc partment of Hygiene . at Harvid | University, claims another reason for | the "too previous awakening of the sex-urge can be found in the incite ment of modern novels and the stage to say nothing of modern dancing and petting parties." Dr. Worcester was speaking on education of the affections at a meet- ing held under the auspices of the Girls' Friendly Society, conducted in connection with the national eon- copal Church. The mating instinet, Dr. Worcester maintained, should not be stifled but during the period before marriage should be directed into motherly service in the case of girls and, in the case of boys, into channels of chivalrous conduct "that foreshadow the father's protecting care." "Such employment must of course be understood as only temporary," Dr. Worcester said, "for no normal girl or boy must ever deliberately: decide against marrying." "Not by the practically impossible preservation of childish ignorance but only by a truer interpretation, of the sex-urge will its problems ever be solved," Dr. Worcester said. "Girls as well as boys," he insisted, "have far more education and train- ing in the right use of their brains and hands than they have of their hearts. 'This is their misfortune." "Petting, so-called," said Dr. Wor- cester, "deserves a moment's ' con- sideration because it is the subject of frequent questions by young folks who honestly want to know how far it is allowable that affection for each other be given expression. "There is no short and easy ans- wer to the question. What is harm- less for one may be harmful for ans other, "A satisfactory answer to this question about petting, as well as to every other question concerning the true relation of the sexes, can be found only by application of the two great principles of kinship and trus- teeship.®* No man or woman is an independent creature; each is re- sponsible for the other's welfare, both temporal and eternal. "Moreover, both are alike respon- sible to our creator for the safe- guarding of the human life stream, for the passing on to future genera- tions unimpaired what has been re- ceived from unnumbered preceding generations. Our question thus con- sidered becomes simplified. "Instead of searching for the right pathway out of the maze of bewild- ering rules and customs, men and wo men have only to ask themselves if the conduct to which they incline would be mutually helpful or harm- ful as regards these great responsi- bilities. "It is pecause perfect marriage depends upon faithful sex trustee- ship that, in this difficult period of enforced celibacy, no conduct can be approved whi hick jeopardizes the chances of ps a marriage. And in this respect the man and woman are under exactly the same personal obligation, and both alike are also responsible for each other." Dr. Worcester strongly. assailed "the supposed necessity of stifling the sex urge," although he advised "proper premarital use." "So long," he said, "as it fs con- pidered immodest for a girl to ad- mit having any longing for a lover, who may e her shusband and the father of her babies, she is prac- tically obliged to stifle her best self. Her usefulness is thus impaired. 'The success of conscientious girls in such concealment leads their boy friends to believe that only girls of a lower class can be responsive to their advances, This surrender of the field by girls who only pretend to be cold blooded is the more ignominious Because it is made to rivals who having for- feited their capability for real love, have, become adepts in the pretense of it." SEVEN HELD FOR MONTREAL HOLDUP Ne ; "Montreal, Oct. 9.--City 'police have arersted five men, are holding two more as witnesses and are searching for another pair, all in connection with the holdup of two youthful messengers of the Banque Candienne Nationale on October 2 at the corner 'of Wellington and McCord street, with a loss of $7,- '400, 45-CENT MINIMUM .FOR WINDSOR LABOR (By Canadian Press Leased Wire) Windsor, Oct. 9.--~An agreement has been reached between the Windsor - Walkerville Technichal "School Board and Ernest Clarke, Ltd., contractors for thie addition to the school building, that the lowest rate of wages for laborers will be 456 cemts per Lour.
