A Growing Newspape: In a Growing City Tle Oshawa Daily Times Succeeding The Oshawa Daily Reformer : * "All The News Whiie It Is News" VOL. 8--NO. 39 Day Ecest Sundays ami Publis: Holkiogs OSHAWA, ONTARIO, MONDAY, FEBRUARY 16, 1931 12 Cents a Week; 3 Cents a Copy EIGHT PAGES 400 MEN STILL EMPLOYED ON RELIEF WORK & » Rabbi Eisendrath CONGREGATION IS URGED TO STRIVE TO ESTABLISH SPIRIT OF BROTHERHOOD Well-known Toronto Rabbi Makes Appeal for Jews and Christians to Work Together for Ideals of Peace EARNEST PLEA FOR MORE TOLERANCE Vast Congregation Filled Simcoe Street United Church to Capacity for In- spiring Address by Elo- quent Jewish Preacher "If I were a Christian." This is the title of a sermon which was preached by Rabbi Maurice Eis- endrath, of Holy Blossom Synagogue, ronto, at. the evening service of Simcoe Street United Church last night. The speaker's conception of Christianity, or rather of the princi- ples of Christ its founder, was a noble, ificent and glorious one. Erect of figure, with keen eyes and schol- arly features, Rabbi Eisendrath charmed an overflowing congregation with his burning eloquence and held fast the attention of that vast audi- enice, which crowded the church to the very doors, as lic set forth a chal- lenge for those who call themselves after the Man of Nazareth. The visiting rabbi was extended a sincere and cordial welcome by Rev. E. Harston, pastor of the church, who commented that this was not the first time that a Hebrew religious leader had: spoken from he, velpie of Sitn= coe Street Unite hureh, riefly he referred to Rabbi 'Isserman's visit to Ol two years ago aud stated that it had brought much spiritual benefit. A week ago, Rev. Mr, Har- ston said, he had attended the morn- ing service in Holy Blossom Syna- gogue and had felt that God was truly there and that its minister, Rabbi Eis- endrath, was indeed a Man of God. Therefore it'was with great joy, that on. the occasion of the anniversary of the church brotherhood socicty, the congregation welcomed Rabbi Eisen- drath as special speaker. Being a true Christian, to the mind of Rabbi Eisendrath, is to be in every sense of the word an ideal man, an advocate of peace and brotherhood, broad-minded, sympathetic and charit- able. "It may seem presumptuous," he said, "for me, a Jew, to attempt to give you as Christians a nobler, a more exalted conception of what your religion should mean, "But is it not true that sometimes those who sec things from a distance can perceive more clearly than those who see them closely. Familiarity may not breed contempt, but familiarity may result in indifference and in ignorance." Nor is there any one who will deny that Rabbi Eisendrath succeeded in (Continued on page 8) TAKING WHEAT INLD OF GASH Plan Which Has Been Spon- sored by Wrigley Com- pany May Be Adopted by Others Toronto, Feb. 14--Many concerns interested in business ~ from the CONFERENCE OF INSURANCE.

This section of the program calls for the convention to open at 10 a.m. on Wednesday, August 26, with the official welcome and introduction of leaders in the civic life of Oshawa. Business sessions thereafter will be held daily from 9 a.m. to 12 noon and from 2 pm. to 530 p.m. with the evening left free for whatever enter- tainment features may be arranged by the Oshawa Branch, These will include the convention ~ banquet, which will probably be held in the Armouries, and at which there will be between six and seven hundred juests, Present indications are that at least 500 delegates will be present, and while the problem of billeting them was discussed, the provincial fficers were assured by M, Mcln- tyre Hood, chairman of the general convention committee, that this prob- lem would be met satisfactorily by the people of Oshawa, prairie provinces are idering the adoption of the Wrigley plan, states Allan Ross, president of Wrigley's. 'His statement that Wrigley's have béen successful in holding and in- creasing their business by taking the amount of current sales in wheat has not only shown a good will and friendly interest to th¢ west but has encouraged manufac turers and bankers to a more liber al view of the credit strength of the distributors (jobbers and re- tailers and consumers in the prai rie provinces. r. Ross regards wheat as a sta plé whose depressed value is not likely to long continue and which offers good security in exchange {0 the merchandise of the east. Many of the eastern manufactur- ers who have made inquiries verb- ally and by letter are very compli mentary toward the plan and three of them seem likely to announce their adoption of it within the next few weeks as a means of helping reviyal of business in the west.

Firemen Arrived on Scene No New McLaughlin Models To Be Introduced This Year Although ti has been customary for the McLaughlin-Buick to make an- nouncements in connection with new models on the First of August each year, the plan will not be followed 'in 1931, according to W. C. Herring, As- sistant General Manager in charge of sales, General Motors of Canada, Li- mited. Mr. Herring said today that the present line of McLaughlin. Buicks would not be replaced by new models this summer, The 1931 line of Straight Eights, equipped with Syncro-Mesh transmission, has met with such definite approval from the motoring public that it has been de cided to continue the present models beyond the usual announcement date In planning the 1931 series of the McLaughlin-Buick, this new arrange- ment was very definitely in mind, ac- cording to Mr, Herring. "It appears to meet with favor on the part of our dealers and the public as well," he ad- ded, "particularly in view of the fe- cent change in the Eight-Fifty mod- els, which unifies the whole line and puts it in shape to meet demand that seems likely to continue for some time." The change referred to by Mr. Her- ring took place when Syncro-Mesh transmission and torque tube drive were incorporated in the Eight-Fifty series, which is the lowestspriced of the McLaughlin-Buick ~~ Straight Eights. This development brought in- to the lowest division of the medium price field a remarkable transmission and drive that together have herejo- fore been offered exclusively in a much higher price field. Boy Claims Bicycle as it Was About to be Sold by Auction A lad in his teens caused quite a stir in the council chamber on Saturday afternoon while the auc- tion sale of unclaimed articles was In progress. A very fine-looking bicycle was put up for sale, but as sooh as it was raised for the crowd to inspect, this lad jumped up, and said, "That is wy wheel. 1 had it stolen a couple of weeks ago." The chief of police doubted the statement, and sald the wheel bad been in police possession for much longer than two weeks, but the boy persisted in his assertion that the wheal was his. "What is the serial number of 'our bicycle" asked the chief. "LT 22708," said the lad and the constable who was holding up the wheel certified that this was the number borne by the machine which was being put up for sale. The bicycle was withdrawn from the sale, after the boy asserted that he had given this number to the police when his bicycle was stolen, and he had been advised to call at the police station to straighten out the tangle, the chief stating that if he had given the number specified in his report of the theft, the machine would be turned over to him, After the sale, these formalitios were com- plied with, and the boy rede off on his bicycle, happy to be in pos- session of his machine once again, and grateful that he had taken the trouble to attend the sale. Motorist Who Ran Into Train Wins in Action for Damages Against Railway Company Whitby, Feb. 16.--Judge Robert Ruddy has just given judgment for the plaintiff in an action brought against the Canadian National Railways by a Lindsay citizen for damages sustainedw hile his auto- mobile ran into the side of a rall- way train at a crossing on the Little Britain road on a dark night in October last. Tho plain- tiff in the case was Frank Cayley of Lindsay and the accident oc- curred near that town. The judgment, which is of great inter- est to all motorists, finds that the railway was liable because its train had obstructed the crossing for fonger than the legal timo limit, and was not protected by lights of any kind. R. I. Moore of Lind- say represented the plaintiff in the case, and the Canadian National Rallways was represented by A. D McDonald of Toronto. The Judgment The judgment of Judge Ruddy, who heard the case in court at Lindsay on February 3, when he reserved his decision, in full, is as follows: "The evidence shows that the de- fendant's raltway track runs along a hollow and across the Public Highway, leading into the town of lindsay.

The extent of the reprisals which the government intends to take was as yet undermined, but rising in- dignation was apparent in the at- titude of the leaders here. Their determination to reduce drastically 'their purchases in the United States was indicated in semi-official an- nouncements. Meanwhile, the Soviet press in editorials and cartons attacks the 'anti-Soviet campaign" in the Unit- ed States and Great. Britain. The charges allege that the timber ban and other related moves against Russian commodities mask "capi- tal fears' of socialism. 'One report said that lumber work- ers held numerous meetings over the week-end, and adopted rerolu- tions urging American workers "to refuse to believe the bourgeois lies and join in the protest against the anti-Soviet attacks." The charges of 'slave labor" or forced work again were emphatic- ally denfed. The government, how- ever, it has been admitted, marshals its labor forces arbitrarily, like an army---and in this gense labor may, be termed enforced. .

The council chamber, where the sale was held, was filled to capa- city by a crowd of pcople who were either buyers, or interested specta- tors and Auctioneer Willlam Sully was able to secure surprisingly good prices for the articles sold. Some of the bicycles were in ex- cellent condition, and the better machines sold for from ten to fif- teen dollars. Many others brought prices between five and ten dol- lars, while the others, more or less wrecked and dilapidated, went for anything from a dollar to five dol- lars. It was surprising to notice how the buyers were anxious to bid on even remnants of what had once heen bicycles, machines with one wheel missing, and with various other parts Jong since separated from their original location, being sold for two, three and four dol- larg. Chief Friend was agreeably surpriged by the demand for bi- cycles; and with the amount rea- lized hy the sale of the old ma- chines, Rifles and shotguns of small calibre were also eargerly bought up, and sold at prices between two and four dollars, while tires in various stages of life went for prices ranging from 50 cents to five dollars according to their con- dition, : JACOB MILLER 13 GIVEN TERM INPENITENTIARY Man Whose Apron Swindle Brought Many Victims Is Convicted and Sentenced (Special to The Times) | Hamilton, Feb. 16.---Jacop Mil- ler, whose Hoover apron swindle attracted answers from female | victims from coast to coast, ap-| peared before Megistrate 'H, A.
