This Bow- manville team is good and is going good, so tonight's tussle has all the earmarks of a fast hockey game that will keep the fans keyed up from the opening bell right to the finish. Hav- ing defeated Peterboro twice, and without a loss on their score card, the Oshawa boys are determined to keep up the good work. Throw in 'a bit of healthy local rivalry between the two communities, and there you have the setting for a first-class hoc- key attraction. The 'Oshawa line-up is expected to be the same as that which won the two games with Pet- érboro, although there is a possibility that Jack Bond will hop over' the board and join in the fray. Jack is just as good on the ice cushion as he is on the gridiron, and his addition to the team will strengthen it con- siderably.

While Justice Bailey's opinion prohibits the packers from engag- would the modification permit it has a bearing on the whole sub- ject of buying and selling. The court found no evidence of viola- tion of the Sherman anti-trust laws dicated that the broadened opera- not serve as a combination in res- traint of trade or competition, Lower Food Prices Chicago, Jan. ~The packing industry hailed the modification of the packers' consent decree as a le- gal decision which will result in lowered food prices the nation over, The District of Columpia Su- preme Court held in effect'that the meat packers might now engage in the wholesaling of many varieties of food products, vegetables, frun, milk, coffee, tea, and the like, Hith- erto, the packers had been confined by law almost entirely to the pro- duction and distribution of meat and fits by-products. Most executives of the greav packing houses which make Chicago the largest producers of dressed meat in America, declined to com- ent on the decision for publica- tion. F. Edson White, president of rmour and Co., however, issued a formal statement in which he sata the decision would be "beneficial to the public." Another packing company execu- tive who did not want to be quoted, explained the results of the ruling as follows: "SBalesmen of the big packing companies are now gning to retail stores to sell meat. The modifica- tion of the packers' consent decree means that these salesmen, while making their regular calls, can take orders for vegetables, fish and the other food products involved. 'Naturally the gelling expense of these food products will be low, The new method will save sales- men's salaries and expenses, It will do away with much duplication of selling effort, "At the same tie the expense of distribution of these food products by companies already sending out great shipments of meat will be low. "All this should mean more mon- ey for the packers, saving for the consumers and benefits to the re- tailers and producers as well." M. Davis, in charge of the outer office of the Town Clerk's Depart. ment of the London City Corporation, has resigned to become a Cistercian monk.

Bll AEROPLANES ~ OTART ON TOUR AROUND AFRICA Twin- Engined Transport Bi- planes to Cruise From Cape Town to Cairo and Back Cairo, Beypt-- The sixth Royal Air Force formation eruise [from Cairo to Cape Town and back---an ftem in regular service routine of the squadrons stationed in Egypt-- begin on Jan. 12. Three large twin- engined Vickers "Victoria" heavy transport biplanes ascend from Hel- fopolis aerodrome with instructions to arrive at Cape Town at the end of the first week in February and to complete the return journey during the second week in March, Earlier service flights over 11,- 240 miles of the voyage did much to pave the way for the mail and passenger service which will begin operation very soon. With never a serioug hitch or departure from pre-arranged time-table the annual cruise of Royal Air Force bombers has year by year demonstrated how aircraft might ply regularly from one end of the Afican continent to the other. Now the civil organiza- tion, manifest in a chain of aero- dromes and emergency landing grounds, asists the way of the ser- vice flyers and at the same time pays tribute to their predecessors. Every earlier cruise has engaged single-engined bombing craft, This is a more ambitious project, the greater size of the aeroplanes im- plying possible difficulty in getting into and out of the smaler aero- dromes. Each "Victoria," when fully laden, weighs nearly eight tons, and at Nairobi and Abercorn, in Northern Rhodesia, the aero- dromes are more than 6,000 feet a- hove sea level; this means that the ascent in the thin air fonnd in Afri- ca at this height, particularly if the sun be hot, will need every ounce of power which can be got from the two big engines. The flight, which will be super- viged by Group Captain E. M. Mur- ray, will spend periods of one or two days at certain aerodromes, where numbers of native soldiers will be borne aloft to give them ex- perience of aerial troop carrying. With Group Captain Murray will be Squadon Leader H. W. G. J, Pen- derel, and six pilots. Among them is Flight Lieutenant D'Arcy Gre:g, famous pilot of high-speed sea- planes, who was third in the last race for the Schneider International Trophy and held the former British speed record of 319% miles an hour. He is now engaged in pilot- ing huge and comparatively slow bed of straw, and wear neither shoes nor shirtm 1 troop carrying craft. The "Victoria" is powered with Toronto, Jan. 9--One little goal but what a difference it makes! For 45 and a half minutes® last night the Montreal Maroons and the Maple Leafs provided a brand of scoreless hockey that was featured by some tight defensive work and great saves by the goalkeepers more than the speed and the brilliance of the attack, but at this point Hooley Smith was given a penalty for a breach of the anti-defence rule and this offence, of the most minor na ture in appearance, became the most important feature of the game. kt gave the Leafs the odd man advan- tage, the same as they bad several times previously, and, while it did not shape up as the turning point of the clash between the two leading teams of the Canadian group of the National Hockey licague, it was the break of the game as it turned out With the advantage of no one in centre ice to check him, Ace Bailey | slipped down the ice with Blair and over toward the right boards.

INDUSTRY BEGINS Many Reports o of Men Being Taken Back Into Employment The return to work of many thou- sands of workers is noted in dis- patches coming from various sec- tions of the country, Railway shops and automobile factories were chiefly affected. In Chicago, vice-president Frank Walters of the Chicago and North- western, announced that 7,000 men were returned to work along the entire system on a three-day a week basis, while from Detroit came re- ports that automobile plants in Michigan had re-engaged 22,000 employees.

Amend- | Statistical Organization Says That Better Days Coming Soon New York, Jan. 9.--The drastic | decline in = aggregate purchasing | power, which is both a cause and an effect of part and full time unem- ! ployment, has doubtless been the | predominating factor' in aggravat- {ing and prolonging the present de- | pression, says the Standard Statis- | tes Company, in discussing the | prospects of business recovery in 1931. A current bulletin of tne company continues in part: -- "We estimate that the current rate of annual income of all work- ers, exclusive of those in agricul- ture and Federal employ, is approx- imately 35 billion dollars, as com- pared with a peak rate in 1929 of about 44.6 billion, This represents a decline of 9.6 billion, or 21.56 per cent. The most severe reductions have occurred in the building and metal trades. In manufacturing industries, unusually severe de- clines have been registered in most branches of textiles and iron and steel, and in lumber, leather, brick and tile, glass, brass and bronze, automobiles, agricultural imple- ments, electrical equipment, pianos and organs, rubber products and automobile tires. "Current evidence indicates that the extreme of the unemployment completion will very likely be grad- few weeks of 1931, Both seasonal and cyclical trends should then take up at least a moderate amount of the present slack, and by the end of .the first half a more nearly nor- mal condition should have material- ized. While it is our belief that some further wage adjustments will probably be effected, in order to align the incomes of certain classes with those which were obliged to take the first brunt of the shock, its completion will very likely be grad- ual and protracted. "Purchasing power of labor will probably be gradually enhanced in 1931, not by increases in dollar wages, but by reductions in the costs and prices of most items com- prising the workers' budget. On the whole, we expect a steady, al- though perhaps slow, improvement in employment 4 during the year."

Charles Coughlin, of Royal Oak, Mich., be censored. Father Coughlin, rector of the famous Shrine of the Little Flower, has been giving a series of Sunday evening broadcasts over the Colums= bia networks. in which he expresses the Catholic viewpoint on modern problems, While reluctant to discuss the matter, Father Coughlin admitted * that protests had been made by sev- eral "large interests." He refused to name them, but said one large } church organization, a prohibition § organization and certain individuals were among them. One letter, he said was received from an Episcopal minister in Bui- falo whom he refused to name. The protests were prompted by his discussions of prohibition, un- employment and international af« fairs, notably the League ot Na- tions and the World Court. | Father Coughlin said he believed certain industrial interests had made protests against his discus- sions of the Catholic attitude to ward unemployment and the rights of labor. Asked what specific statements in his addresses on unemployment were objected to, Father Coughlin summed up the Catholic viewpoint which he had been propounding, as follows: "The Catholic Church upholds the right to private ownership, but does not agree that the proprietor of an industry has any right to use his possessions unreagonably to tho detriment of his fellowman."
