A report showing that in the last eighteen months the adjustment service of the Oshawa Branch of the Canadian Legion had been suc- consful in securing for war veterans, widows and dependents in Oshawa sums totalling $18,267.64 in pen- sion, retrometive pension, canteen fund grants, department relief from the department of pensions, war veterans' allowance and other pay- ments, aroused much enthusiasm ut the meeting of the branch held last evening in the council chamber, with a large attendance of mewib- ers present, The detailed report was presented by M. Melntyre Hood, adjustment officer of the branch, who showed that of the above am- ount, $8,610 represented the annual amount of pensions secured by the offorts of the Legion, payable to veterans, widows and dependents in monthly instalments and $6,282,02 roprosented retroactive pensions paid in lump sums to veterans and dependents, In two cases reported on, and which had been successfully completed in the last week, veter- ans who had for some time heen in straightened circumstances had re- ceived back pension payments of over $1,000 each, Comrade Hood expressed the opinion that many of the thirty to forty commuted pen- sloners In the city would be re- colving cheques for similar amounts during the next few weeks. These cheques were coming through os a result of the new legislation which was secured by the Canadiun Legion at the session of parliam- ont last spring. The report show. od that 165 cases had been handled or were being handled by the ad- justment officer of the branch since April, 1929, Outside Cases The report was received with much gratification, particularly as future prospects were so bright, and because the work of the Legion Is affording permanent measures of relief for wany fumilies which would otherwise be forced to apply for civie relief. " In addition to the local capes, 1 report was submitted showing that $2,325 additiopsl had been secured Lor veterans living fo other places who had applied tor the assistance of the loeal adjust. ment office, some of these cases he. & located in New York, Texan, Jhicago, Goderich, North Bay, Kingston, Bowmanville and other places, The thanks of the branch to the adjustment officer were ably expressed by the president. Galn in Membership The meeting saw a further gain In membership for the branch, four new members being initiated, and nine applications for membership necepted, The total membership of the branch at present stands at over 360, with almost the whole strength fully paid up. The financial state ment was also very encouraging, showing a substantial balance in the treasury of the branch, A resolution commending the ac- tion of the Port Arthur Branch of the Canadian Legion insorganizing as a special force to combat the Communists in that community was passed, and a copy ordered to he nent to the secretary of the Port Arthur Branch, ' DEATH REMOVES OLD RESIDENT Mrs. Wm.

The Toy Shop, it will be recalled, has done splendid service in past years in repairing and manufacturing toys for' distribution to the needy families of the city at Christmas time, and, on t of the jonally heavy demands for assistance this year, the Boy Scouts of the city have made an early start on their work, Each troop of scouts will take turns at working in the toy shop every even- ing, so as to use their skill in crafts. manship to remodel toys which have seen better days, and to repair toys which require such treatment. This year, it is estimated, there will: be 1,200 families to be cared for, in com- parison with 400 families a year ago, so the task ahead of the scouts is a stupendous one, The basis on which the Bo do their work is an pho g Scouts to the "|OSHAWA PUBLIC TO ements this year will be tremen- , 80 the is being started early, in the that the citizens will make a prompt and generous re- sponse, will clean out the boards, and send whatev, to send to the Fire Hall, or to which bave been ceiving depots for toys.

Their services are given freely, and the are only waiting for toys on whic to work, So The Times supports their appeal, and joins in askin those citizens who have toys, whic they can reasonably sacrifice, to place them at the disposal of the scouts, so that they can be used to make some needy family happy on Christ mas morning.

There was considerable discussion of the plans for the Poppy Day eam- paign, the general view being that the campaign should be more vig- erously prosecuted than in any for- mer year, on account of the great- or need among war veterans than In any past year. For ten years now, the Armistice period has been recognized as the time of the Le- gion's annual appeal to the citi. gons for funds for relief purposes, to be administered by the Legion and its Auxiliary in caring for the special needs of disabled and needy war veterans and their dependents, and {t was the feeling of the meet- ing that this year, above all others, the claims of the war veterans for sympathetic consideration should be strossed. The usual tag day will bo held on Saturday, November 8, when a large force of workers will be on the sireets of the city dis tributing. the poppies, which are mado in the Veteraft Shops by dis- abled soldiers, who are thus enabled to earn a livelihood, The remembrance aspect of the Armistice Period will not be over looked. The Legion has arranged for a church parade and service on the evening of Sunday, November 9, when the veterans of the city will parade at the Armories at 6,30 p.m,, and will march to Simcoe Street United Church for divine service: All war veterans of the city are in- vited to join in the parade. In the afternoon, on the same day, mem- bers of the Legion will join with the Ontario Regiment in a parade to St, George's Anglican Church, Hare a special service ia to be old. The observance of Armistice Day, on November 11, will be especially impressive. A large body of war veterans will assemble at the gore ner of King and Simcoe Streets at 11 am, to take part in the obser. vance of the two minutes of silence, They will spread out, in the form of A cross, along King and Simcoe Streets, and will see that all move- ment is halted during that impres- slve period, At noon on the same day, a brief decoration service will be conducted at the war memorial, which will be decorated by the Le- kion and the Auxillary, and an in- vitation is extended to the city council and other publia bodies to Join: in the service of decoration, as well as to any individual or oth- r Srysuisations Which wish to take art.

The retail milk dealers of the city are accept. ing one third as their contribution, and they are depending on the co-op- eration of the public to absorb the other third by decreasing operating costs, The wholesale price of milk, on October 1, was increased from $2.- 20 per 100 pounds to $2.50 and so far, the dairies have been absorbing the whole of the increase. Last night, however, the farmers displayed a splendid spirit by agreeing to accept a share in carrying the burden, in order to keep the price of milk down to the consumer, and they agreed to accept a price of $240 per hundred pounds, This fine spirit on the part of the farmers will make it possible for the people of Oshawa to buy their milk during the winter without the usual seasonal increase in price, and will doubtless be much appreciated by the citizens generally. president of the Canadian Legion Delegations are coming to this ban- quet from Cobourg, Bowmanville Whitby, Brooklin, Port 'Perry, Sun- derland, Beaverton and Orillia, and it is expected to be the largest ever held in Rotary Hall, Died STAINTON--In Oshawa, on Fri- day, October 24th, 1930, Martha Tremeer, beloved wife of Mr. William H.

(97a) Producers' Meeting Here DEALER: PRODUCER | he) ¢ pe Milk Producers' Association Decides to Accept Summer -" Prices at Meeting Last Night Local Dairies Will Be Able to Supply Milk Here Dur- ing Winter Months With- out Raising Cost to Ton- sumers MEETING WAS HELD IN GENOSHA HOTEL Farmers Will Accept Cut of Ten Cents Per Hundred Pounds -- Association Elects Officers for Coming Year The Oshawa Milk Producers' Ag- sociation made a very creditable step at their meeting last night when they agreed to a cut of ten cents per hundred pounds in the price paid to them by the dairies of the city. The eit in price will al- low the dairies to supply the con- sumers of the city with milk dur- ing the winter months at summer prices, The move made by the milk producers of the district will have a very definite effect in alding the poor people of the city at a time when they need the help the most. The meeting moved that the cut take effect on November 1st, It was learned that the executive of the association had heen ap- proached by George Hart, presi- dent of the Oshawa Dalry who ask- ed that the milk producers who supplied Oshawa, should accept a cut of ten cents per hundred pounds in«the price paid by the dairies to the producer in order that milk might be supplied to the consumers in the city at the price charged dur- ing the summer months, Mr. Hart, it was stated, considered the price of milk too high for the existing conditions in the city. The price cut will mean that the producer will receve $2.40 per hundred pounds instead of $2.50 per hun- dred as has been the case in the past. It was understood that if the as- sociation did not agree to the cut in price that the dairies would en- deavor to secure milk from pro- ducers outside the association who would sell milk at a price below that paid to the association mem- bers. It was the feeling of the meeting however that the milk se- eured by such a method would not be up to the standard of that sup- plied by members of the associa~- tion. The association, it was stat- ed, had cause to believe that with the acceptance of the cut in price that no shippers would be cut off and that the price would be raised when conditions merited fit. The meeting, which was the 14th annual session of the association,' made plans for the annual banquec and elected the executive for the coming year. For the year 1931 the officers who had served the as- sociation during the last year were re-elected by acclamation, including Roy Lick, R, R. 3, Oshawa, presi- dent; J, A. Grandy, Brooklin, vice~ president; A. T. Stainton, Hamp- ton, secretary-treasurer. The hoard of directors include Carl Wilber, R. R. 1, Hampton; Les. Snowden, R.R. 2, Bowmanville; George Ree- son Oshawa, and L, W, Hall, Brook- lin, Les. Snowden and L. W, Hall were appointed auditors. It was agreed that the banquet of the association be held in the first week in December preferably in the evening. The executive of the association were appointed as a program committee and instructed to make every effort to secure Dr. J. B. Reynolds, former president of the Ontario Agricultural College, at Guelph, as the speaker for the oc- casion, The auditors' report on the finan- clal position of the association t¢howed that there was a very cre- ditable balance on hand, which would be augmented by the pay- ment of the membership fees for the year which as yet have not been collected, The association appointed Mr. Stainton and Norman Down as the delegates to the Ontario Milk Pro- ducers' Association meeting to be held early in the new year.
