Tresidder, representative, TIVES IN US, REPRESENTA Powers and Stone Inc., New York and Chicage MONDAY, OCTOBER 13th, 1930 THE CITY'S RELIEF PROGRAM The program of public works which has now been adopted by the city council, in committee of the whole, for submission to the provincial government for approval as unemployment relief projects, is an ambitious one, and should go a long way towards satis- fying the unemployed of the city that the council is determined to do everything in its power to provide work for as large a number of men as possible. The Times has frankly been critical of the city council in the past, believing that the council did not fully rea- lize the needs of the situation. But The Times can, nevertheless, commend the council for its present endeavor to secure for Oshawa as large a share of government assistance as possible in meeting the unemployment prob- Jem in a large way and trying to solve it, The list of public works with which the coun- cil is asking for public assistance includes the following: Construction of pavement on Simcoe Street South, from Thomas Street to the harbor. Construction of one mile of pavement in various parts of the city, the work to be done by pick and shovel and hand labor. Construction of a bridge across the Osh. awa Creek on Bond Street. Cutting down hills on certain streets to a proper grade, the work to be done by hand labor. Construction of main storm sewer from Kitchener Avenue to Bloor Street East, the tile to be constructed locally, and the entire work done by hand labor. of 3 feet of concrete tile to be carried in stock and used as required by the city. : Construction of a new clear well at the pumping station. Construction of approximately 5,200 feet of water mains. Grading and levelling of Alexandra Park. Request that excavation work on the sub- way be done by manual labor. In addition to these suggestion projects, which have to receive governmental appro- val before the work can be started on a re- lief basis, the council is making a request that direct relief assistance be given by the government, and also that certain of the above projects, coming under the jurisdic- tion of the public utilities commission, be also approved by the government as entitled to subsidy as relief works. The above list is impressive. It should, if 'approved, create a large amount of em- ployment, and, by following the policy of giving men one week's work in every two, _its benefits should be felt by hundreds of families in the city. After much considera- tion, the council has at last produced a pro- gram that is worthy of the situation, and 'the unemployed now have a definite assir- ance that something is being done to provide for them. ' The council has given warning that it will "not be possible to provide for all of the un- employed in the city by initiating the above projects. That was hardly to be e ted. "Yet if half of them can be taken car€ of by council's 'endeavors, a splendid thing will have been accomplished, and it will rest with private individuals and concerns to do their share, in providing work for the balance by following out, intensively, the campaign to "Give a man a job."

This should be ong. of the big days of the cam- paign. The*Tarmers have not felt the pinch of depression and unemployment to anything like the same extent as the city people, and with their crops safely harvested, they ghould be in a position to make a splendid contribution to the cause of prosperity. Need- less to say, they will be given a hearty wel- come to the city on Farmers' Day, when it is hoped that Oshawa will be the mecca of thousands of visitors from the rich agricul- tural district surrounding the city. CANADA'S FIRST ATLANTIC FLIGHT The thrill has to some extent been jake) out of flights across the Atlantic. The fea has now been performed a sufficient number of times that successful fliers gain neither the glory nor the cash rewards which went to those who were the first to cross the ocean by air. Yet the people of Canada were intensely gratified when they received the news that Captain Errol Boyd, of Toronto, had landed safely on the other side of the ocean after a perilous flight from Newfound- land, thus completing the first flight which has its beginning in Canada and its end in the British Isles. During the war, Canadian airmen gained for themselves an undying reputation for skill and courage. In times of peace, they are showing the same qualities. The work of the fire prevention patrols and the explor- ation fliers in the north country has been of an outstanding character, and the feat -of Captain Boyd and his companion in success- fully spanning the Atlantic, after a fierce struggle with storms, will be long remem- bered as one of the epic achievements of Canadian flying men. Nothing new has been proven by the flight, of course, but nevertheless, Canada is proud of Captain Boyd, and rejoices that he was able to make the trip in safety. COMFORT ON RAILWAYS Competition from other systems of trans- portation is going to revolutionize the trains of the future, accordi to a statement made by Sir Henry Thofnton, chairman and president of the Canadian National Railways, in addressing the American Association of Passenger Traffic Officers at Atlantic City the other day. In fact, Sir Henry painted a picture of the trains of the future, and the changes he predicted were of such a charac- ter as to make the people of even this age of modern conveniences sit up and take no- tice. Referring to competition from aero- plane routes, Sir Henry said:-- "A new competitor is challenging the railroads. We will have to meet that by increased speed and with the safety fa- cilities at our disposal, 'The time of land travel between London and Paris compares measurably with that by air. At the same time, we are confronted with the necessity of making travel by rail more agreeable and comfortable by attention to proper heating and cooling, and progress along this line is pans being made. Train travellers should have facilities reasonably equivalent to those provided on ocean liners when taking a journey across the continent. Shower baths, real bedrooms, moving pictures and gymnasiums are among the requirements of this sort now being sup- lied by some transcontinental trains." his is an interesting prospect to look for- ward to. One of the disagreeable things of train travel for long distances is the diffi-. culty of securing pure air in the trains, _ coupled with: the lack of facilities for bath. ing. Such things were far beyond the fond- est dreams of even one generation ago, but whél"a man of Sir Henry. Thornton's posi- tion and far-seeing vision, predicts that these things are likely to come about, then it would not be surpriging to find them developed on : Canada's own national railway system, over which he presides. ese) EDITORIAL NOTES Spend this week in helping to make pros- perity. The weather man is doing his best to keep down the cost of living by enabling us to conserve the coal pile in the cellar. The unemployed of Oshawa -are' hoping that it will not take the government too long to approve the unemployed relief program which has been drawn up by the city council. If credit is given where it is due, the un- employed, at their next meeting, should pass. a vote of thanks to the city council. Mr. Bennett's plan is apparently not be- ing met with so enthusiastic a response in the old land as is being given to it in Canada, ~ Even if it meets with defeat in the schooner races, the Bluenose is still an excellent fish- ing craft. ' Ex-Premier King's tion that Pre. mier Bennett does not speak for the people of Canada shows that he has changed his viewpoint since he crossed to the opposition DID YOU EVER STOP TO THINK THAT it is spid there is mo problem which cannot be solved sooner or There are a few problems that should he solved sooner than later, and that is the locating of new fll- ing stations and miniature golf courses, Driving through some cities gives you the impression that their princi- pal industries are filling stations and "baby" golf courses, and, from the of many of them, it seems that their owners have little regard for the neighboring residents or for the need of that locality. "It is just possible that these prob- lems will adjust themselves, or wil be adjusted after a time, but in the meantime the long suffering neigh- bors will suffer on, IT IS TO BE HOPED THAT THE VARIOUS CITY ADMINISTRA- TIONS ARE WORKING ON THESE PROBLEMS AND THAT THEY WILL BE SOLVED TO THE SATISFACTION OF ALL CONCERNED. By [umes W. Barton, M.D. RUN DOWN, INFECTION, RHEUMATISM You are reading daily about rhey- matism or arthritis, as it is called, and that most of it is caused by in- fection of teeth, tonsils, sinuses, gall bladder and other organs and tissues, Now just why do some individuals have these infections and others do not? In other words what causes the in- + | fection itself? Infection not only causes the arth- ritis, but it causes the "run down" condition of the body before arth- ritis starts and often where arthritis never does get a start. Research men are now wondering whether the run down condition may not be a cause of the beginning or starting of the infection, Thus a man will work hard men- tally, will become irregular in his eating, sleeping, and intestinal ha- bits, and thus the blood going to the different tissues will be of such poor quality that it does not build up the tissue of the part so that it can with- stand the harmful organisms that are always in the body, In this way these organisms, where there is a weak or exposed point open to attack, are enabled to begin ther destructive work. It would seem that stress or strain interferes with the way the tissues should handle food stuffs, and this paves the way for trouble or infec. tion, As you know the drain on the mo- ther with child, is often sufficient to lessen the amount of lime or other substances in her own teeth or tis. sues, even when she eats plenty of food and drinks plenty of milk. Also it has been well established that arthritis or rheumatism can be- gin, and be continued in the system, by the absorption of wastes from in- testine. In fact a great part of the treatment of rheumatism is by the use of Epsom, Rochelle, or other salts to help clear out these wastes from large intestine. Enemas, high irrigations, or colon flushings as they are often called, are now an import- ant part in the treatment of chronic arthritis or rheumatism. Now what about all this? All you need to know is that to try and avoid rheumatism you endea- vor. ta prevent infection by getting enough, sleep, enotigh all round food, and enough exercise daily to keep your particulaf body in good shape, If rheumatism does start, you get rid of the infection--teeth, tonsils, and so forth--and also get rid daily of the products of this infection which are not only in the joints, but to a large extent in the large intestine also, (Registéred in accordance with the Copyright Act) % Bits of Verse WHEN | GROW OLD When I grow old (if God so wills) There'll come a time when I Will lay my laborer's tools away And cease to draw a worker's pay, Retirement to try, And oft I wonder when that day At last to me appears, Will 1 be reconciled to let Another take my place, nor fret 'Away declining years.

It was the ploneer trans-Atlantic aircraft to carry a yacuum tube transmitter. The spark set was used previously, but there was danger of it igniting the gas in the big bag unless careful precautions were taken. The vac- uum tube was considered a great safety factor, When the R-34 apvroached the coast of Maine the radio set was given a serious test.The fuel sup. ply was running low. The bulb called frantically. The crew fear. ed that a forced landing would be necessary at the Chatham, Mass, air station, instead of continuing to the destination on Long Islad, that could be quickly loaded. But The distress call was intercepted at Otter Cliffs, Me., and a subchaser dashed out to sea with all the fuel that could e suickly loaded. But the airship sailed overhead, signal- ling that all was well on board and it was expected that Roosevelt Field could be reached. . Faster Airship . The R-100 is three times as large as the R-34 and is a much faster ship. It represents a de- cade of improvement in airship de- sign. When the R-34 arrived on Long Island there were no microphones at the field, no announcers to give many millions of listeners a des cription of the arrival or to' hear the airmen report on their trip and the pleasure of landing in a for eign country. There were no reg- ular broadcasting stations in 1919, KDKA, the pioneer, did not go on the air until 1920, But when the R-100 arrived at its mooring mast more than a hundred broadcasting stations were, linked together by wire to enable the entire radio au- dience of the United States and Canada to eavesdrop on the scene near Montreal. England heard the announcers by short-wave radio as did other lands across the sea. The R-100 is equipped for long- wave transmission and long and short wave reception. The call is FAAV. The British Air Ministry Kd not disclose the airship's wave' lengths. It was hoped that private stations woulfl not attempt to trans mit messages ag the signal schedule was fully occupied in receiving me- teorological information and in sending essential messages. ed into four parts. On the first 1. 000 miles of the flight communication was direct from the station at Card. ington. From this position until Long. 35 degrees W. was. reached signals passed via the Rugby station, From 35 degrees W. until the air ship crossed the Canadian coast coms munication was through the ise burg station and thereafter direct to the airship base at St. Hubert.

Leng Waves Used The R-100 carries a main transmit- ter, capable of sending telegraphy over long distances on wave 'lengths from 800 to 4,500 meters. A smaller transmitter is used for code and ra- diophone communication on wave lengths from 500 to 3,000 meters in landing operations and as a standby to the main transmitter. There are two complete receivers, one as a spare, capable of receiving code and voice on wave lengths from 300 to 25,000 'meters. For the reception of continuous "waves a separate heter- odyne is utilized. There is also a wave meter on beard. The aerial, which is completely du- plicated te guard against the loss of the one in use, consists of a trailing wire 450 feet long. During landing operations the length is reduced to 80 or 90 feet to prevent fouling ob- stacles. The main electric supply differs in the two airships: R-101's supply was 200 volts alternating current; that of R-100 is 220 volts direct current. The main transmitter on the former re- ceived its high tension and radio tube lighting' current through the medium of transformers and rectifi- ers while in the case of the R-100 the high-tension current is obtained from a l.kilowatt motor generator supplying 25000 volts, to which is geared a 'generator supplying 20 volts for flament lighting. All the units of installation, includ. ing batteries, generators, etc, are enclosed in flash-proof and ventilated compartments, the ' covers of which are provided with electrical interlock | switches to cut off the power to the various units when any door or cover is opened. YOUTH KIELED IN DYNAMITE BLAST Companion May Lose Eye: sight--Explosive Hidden With Fishing Tackle Sudbury, Oct. 11--Explosion of dy= namite caps which, without their knowledge, had been concealed in af box containing their fishing. tackle resulted in the death yesterday of Lucien Myre, agtd 16, and the seri- ous injury of his companion, William Leedale, aged 17. The boys were fishing on McFar. lane Lake, about six miles from here, when the accident oceurred. Only detail. were extracted fram Leedale, who, it is feared, may lose b's eyesight as a result of the blast, The youth told his interrogators that he and his companions had tak- en a box of f'shing tackle in the boat, Hy had struck a match on the seat of the boat:to light a cigaret. 'The box with the tackle was under the scat, ' The next he remembered was ceint the sections were joined togeth- being hurled out of the craft. Attracted by the cries of youths, Antila Hurpanen and Oni Hormisto hurried to the spot, and suceeded in dragging Lecdale to safe- ty. They cou nd no trace of Myre.
