THE OSHAWA DAILY TIMES, TUES AY, NOVEMBER 11, 1930 Armistice Sunday is Fittingly Observed in Oshawa Churches Oshawa Man is Charged Wi Criminal Negligence A Motor Accident at West Hill h ter Police Allege That Miles E| Houck, of King Street Chambers, Had Been Drinking--Car Crashed Head on With Toronto Man's Machine FRED. FLAXMAN DIES OF INJURIES Houck Said To Have Been Driving Borrowed Car -- Arrested on Arrival in Oshawa Miles E. Houck, Chambers, has been charged with criminal negligence, and Frederick Flaxman, 411 Arlington Ave. Toron- to, died last night at the Toronto General Hospital, as the re- sult of a motor collision which oc- curred on the Kingston highway just east of West Hill, Saturday night The car, driven by Houck, was proceeding east when the accident occurred, it is said, colliding head-on with a car driven by Flaxman. The machine driven by Houck had been borrowed from a friend here and po- lice allege that he had been drinking. Percy Smith, 56 Arlington Ave., Tor- onto, who was riding with Flaxman, sustained facial cuts and bruises. Flaxman's sedan was a complete wreck with the front wheels broken and the body knocked off the chas- sis. Slight damage was caused the other car. The accused was arrested by the local police as he arrived in the city on a motor bus. Provincial Officer John Kay and Sergeant Tom Dray- cott, of the Scarboro police, inves- tigated. i Houck appeared before Magis- trate Keith in County of York police court this morning and was remand- ed until November 17th on bail of $5,000. He is being defended by D. A. J. Swanson, well known lawy- er of this city, and it was revealed in court toc¢ay that a party of four had been driving in Flaxman's car, a girl accompanying him in the front seat, while Smith and a sec- ond girl were riding in the rear seat. The girl who was sitting with Flaxman informed the court that she thought that they were driving on the right side of the road, while the other two occupants of the car could give little evidence concern- ing the accident. The accused on his own behalf claimed that Flaxman"s car was traveling at high speed and crash- ed into him on the wrong side of the road. Bail has been put up by the ac- cused, his father, Mott Houck, of Uxbridge, and Adam Wallace, Scugog Island. . King Street to "They've hung everything on me except the Chicago fire."--Al Capone.

These overcoats will be greatly appreciated by those men and boys who find them- selves unable to buy warn win- ter clothing, and the women will be grateful for any such articles sent to them at the Welfare Rooms, in the Times Building. Citizens unable to send coats to the Welfare Rooms are asked to telephone to Mrs. Mills, No. 3386, who will be glad to arrange to have them called for. SINGI AIR STATED GOVT.

E. N. Sin- clair, Liberal leader. It reads as "ollows: "The statement of Hon. Mr Henry, acting Premier, Saturday that legislation is necessary for aid- ing municipalities in unemployment relief work in many instances, shows the advisability of an early session. Banks may advance money, but this will not validate by-laws on which money is loaned. "The Government has had three months now, and the best they can promise at present is legislation in February. Quebec province realiz- ed the sitmation and has called its session early. I asked Ontario to do the same some weeks ago when Mr. Henry made a similar statement as to the necessity of legislation.' "The comfort and convenience of the Government and members of the Legislature is apparently more important than the urgent needs of the unemployed and the difficulties of municipal councils in meeting the unusual situation." - No Difficulty Experienc®d Informed of Mr. Sinclair's state- ment, Hon.

McLaughlin again took a prominent part in the National Horse Show which entered its third day at Madison Square Garden, New York City, on Satur- day. The competition in every class was even closer than it had been during the preceeding days, one event being decided by a matter of split seconds. The show drew large crowds of society people at each of the morning, afternoon and even- ing sessions, as Canadian exhibitors added to their long list of prizes. Mr. McLaughlin gained second award in the qualified hunters. heavyweights, with his chestnut gelding, Michael and a third with his brown gelding Jaybed. in the lightweight class, Miss Ruth Cowans of Montreal, easily taking the blue ribbon in the lightweigths with daring exhibition of clever riding upon her bay mare, Mountain Top.

"I have written to the Bankers' Association informing them that legislation will be adopted at the forthcoming ses- glon of the Legislature to validate the money by-laws. It has been a common practice for banks to loan money to municipalities on recefv- ing such assurance from the Gov- ernment. The Dominion funds for unemployment relief will be dis- tributed monthly. "The Province of Quebec always starts its legislative session before Christmas," said Mr. Henry. 'None of the other provinces is calling an early session. The steps taken by the Ontario Government will enabla municipalities to proceed with their plans without the need of an early session." Obituary REV. IRA SMITH The death occurred this morning, of A.

Toronto's Chief Magistrate Much Pleased With Oshawa| }ARKS ARMISTICE His Worship, Mayor Bert Wemp, of Toronto, was a lunch hour visit- or to Oshawa on Thanksgiving day and enjoyed his Thanksgiving din- ner in the Genosha Hotel. His worship, in a 'special interview granted the Oshawa Daily Times commented in glowing terms on Oshawa's finest hotel, of the splen- did cuisine, the service and the fine accomodation. "What brought you to Oshawa today," asked The Times reporter of Mayor Wemp? . "Well, we were just out for a drive in the country," he answered and we left an hour early so that we might have lunch in your splen- did hotel. It certainly is a credit to the city and should bring busi- ness to Oshawa." "1 was just speaking to your city engineer' Mayor Wemp added "and after hearing of the program your couneil have provided for Unem- ployment Relief I must congratu- late the city on its foresight. | am given to understand that the city has provided work for nearly five hundred men week ahout and 1 ME 1] think that is very creditable to any | city and especidlly to the Motor City | which is hard hit with the automo- | bile industry depression." | "How are unemployment condi- | tions . in Toronto?" asked The| Times. | "Well they are bad," commented his worship," but we have a three million dollar program for relief. This will employ thousands and we are following the same course as you are following in Oshawa, giving the men a week's work and a week off." As Toronto's popular chief mag- strate left to continue his drive through the country he commented, "you know this is not the first visit I have had to your city. I have played golf with your Mayor on vour fine golf course and I have had lunch on several occasions in your new hotel and the more I see of Oshawa the more impressed I be- come with it. It is a progressive city and a city with a heart. On- tario can take a .lead from you in the manner in which you care for your unemployed and needy." | | | | 'DONOT FORGET 60D," PASTOR WARNS HEARERS Orangemen Attended Arm- istice And Thanksgiving Service "Canada has been enjoying ten vears of unparalleled prosperity, and the people are forgetting God With this prosperity has come ques- tionable means of making money, and a disregard for the church If the people will humiliate themsel- ves before God in a time of depres- 'jon, and wake up {0 a sense of sin in the business world, this will in- 'eed be one of the greatest Thanks- fvings that Canada has ever nown," declared Rev. C E. Cragg, nastor of King Street United "hurch, in his morning sermon on 'unday. Rev. Mr. Cragg was addressing a ipecial 'service of remembrance, which was attended by members of the Orange order in this city. Be- fore the service commenced, a two- minute period of silence was ob- served in memory of those who laid down their lives in the Great War, The speaker pointed oat that the government proclamation, calling upon the people to observe Thanks- giving Day, had mentioned many reasons for thankfulness, including =ood crops, industrial prreress, and peace, People of Canada had more reasons than those of any nation in the world to be thankful this year, Mr. Cragg commented. In the period of prosperity that the nation has been enjoying, there has been a tendency to forget God. Rev. Mr. Cragg declared. Church attendance had suffered, and in many rural districts churches had been closed. Wealth had Jbrdught questionable methods of making money, the speaker asserted, men- tioning inflation of the stock mar- ket, and the methods employed by brokers, brought to light in recent trials. Crime had increased, and there was an alarming tendency to- wards corruption in civic govern- ments. These things, combined with the introduction of labor-sav- ing machinery that had thrown many men out of work, had result- ed in uprisings in many cities, and a very prevalent undercurrent of dissatisfaction among laboring men. "If the public conscience be- 7Th. Hg. comes aroused, and if the people as a whole become interested in the civie and political life of the nation, there will indeed be grounds for thanksgiving in Canada," he stated. Turning to the Armistice Day ob- servance, the speaker declared that nowhere in all Canada had he seen a cenotaph as beautiful as the one in Oshawa, containing as it did stones from every battlefield on which Canadian troops fought in the war. Its very name, "The Gar- den of the Unforgotten," was a con- stant reminded of the sacrifice made by the gallant soldiers. The world was seeking a basis for permanent peace, and yet fit seemed as if little was being accom- plished, The London Naval Con- ference and the League of Nations had met, with delegates present who were among the most peace- loving men in the world and yet not much had been accomplished be- cause of the war spirit at home. "We must talk peace, think peace and live peace, if peace is to be ac- complished," he declared. Appropriate music was presented hy the choir during the service. This isciolpd the anthem "O Death, Where is y sting," and the solo. "Fear Not, O Israel," sung by F erring. TAG DAY PROCEEDS SATISFY LEGION Although the total proceeds are somewhat lower than they were last year. the Poppy Tag Day of the Oshawa Branch of the Cana- dian Legion, held on Saturday, was considered very satisfactory under the conditions prevailing In the city. The women of the Ladies' Auxiliary worked faithfully all day on Saturday, and were rewarded by a generous response on the part of the citizens, who gave well un- der the circumstances. Further special contributions to the Poppy Fund since the last report are as' follows: George W. McLaughlin, $100.00; F. W. Cowan, $50.00; Robson Leather Company, $25.00: C. Ewart McLaughlin, $25.00; T. B. Mitchell, Mayor, $10.00; D. M. Tod, $5.00; N. C. O.s, Ontario Regiment, $5.00. Other special contributions are expected to bring the total of the fund up to close to last year's figure, COMMITTED FOR TRIAL His Worship Magistrate Creighton today committed Harry Phipps, Ridgeway: avenue, fpr trial on a charge of a serious offence against a young girl of the city. Phipps was remanded from last Friday, when the case was given a | preliminary hearing. His Worship commented that there was sufficient evidence produced in the hearing to warrant his being put on trial. Phipps when asked, stated that he had no statement to make to the court, Stock Market Prices Market Summary by Canadian Press Toronto and New York Stock Quotations Supplied by and Crawford, Alger Building, Oshawa TORONTO Stock Low Br.

REGIMENT BY CHURCH PARADE Simple But Impressive Cere- mony Held in St. George's . Church, Sunday A simple yet impressive service, on Sunday afternoon, in St. George's Church, marked the com- memoration of Armistice Day by the 34th Ontario Regiment and mem- beds of the Canadian Legion. Cap- tain 8. C. Jarrett, Chaplain of the regiment, was in charge of the ser- vice, reading the lesson and the prayers. The speaker of the after- noon was Major Rev. W. R. R. Ar- mitage, M.C., of Toronto, who brought an ingpirational message, taking as his text, 'God Never Goes Back on His gifts. "A gift is a gift and a promise is a promise, and God never goes back on his promises," asserted Major rmiage. The world war broke out in August, 1914, because Germany broke her pledged word that she would not violate the territory of Jelgium. It was the breaking of that promise that lost Germany the war. Germany drew back from her promise and wanted Britain to go back on hers, but she refused. When a promise is given there can be no drawing back. God has set the example for the world to follow and those that follow Him will fol- low the true path of life, "Armistice Sunday brings to us anew the time for renewing, our covenant with those who have given all that man can give. Our com- rades who fell, went into the dark, as brave men go conscious that there was no drawing back, so that it is entirely up to those who are living now to keep the faith with those who did not return," statea the speaker. Major Armitage warned his au- dience against the false glamor of war, There were a number of peo- ple to-day who were bemoaning the fact that few vestages of the war were to be seen in France to-day. Lovely villages with gardens and churches were to be found that had the look of never having been otherwise. Others had the opinion that it wae soldiers' who made war, but this was untrue as it was the soldiers who made peace possible and ended the war which threaten- ed civilization. "Statesmen to-day fear that Rus- sia and Italy are committing them- selves to preparations for war and some are outspoken enough to state that there may be another war within ten years' time and that the world is drifting in that direction," asserted Major Armitage. Drifting is the word that best describes the cause of wars, said the speaker. "Unless we stand definitely on the gide of peace, we are breaking faith with those who brought the war to a close. God said, 'Blessed are the peace makers for they shall see God. It behooves us then to stand on the side of peace in order to keep the faith with those who died for the cause of peace and civiliza- tion.'* The most, impressive moment of the service was the two minutes of silence during which the whole con- gregation stood with bowed heads, before the silence was broken by the notes of the "Last Post." Following the service in the church the regiment formed up on Centre Street and marched to "The Garden of the Unforgotten," where a wreath was laid on the memorial hy Lt.-Col. E. C. Hodgins, while the colors were dipped and the regi- ment and veterans stood at atten- fon. ee n i Coming Events | | : | | 8 Cents per word each ime { sertion.

The deceased, who was a talented musician, had at all times gener- ously given of his services in many worthy causes and the large num- ber of friends who attended the ser- vice indicated the general esteem with which he wag held. Rev. E. Harston, minister of Sim- coe Street United Church, of which the late Mr. Salmon had been a member was in charge of the service and he spoke eloquently of his high character and generosity. A man of many talents, he had freely con- secrated them to the service of the Church of God, Mr. Harston said. He also stated that the deceased was of a kindly, sympathetic na- ture and had often endeavored to assist those who were in distress or difficulty. Rev.

The parade of war veter- ans and others was a splendid one, there being some hundreds of men and lads on parade behind the band as it marched down Simcoe Street from the Armories, under the com- mand of the Legion's parade mar- shal, Sergt.-Major William Cooper. The parade was by far the largest of fits kind held in Oshawa for years, and the veterans marched with a steadiness that was noted by the lar~e crowd of citizens assem- ' (Continued on page 10) the service.
