Coa Sh-- REPRESENTATIVE--JAMES H. ORMISTON SAYS CANADA CAN INCREASE TRADE INWORLD MARKETS (By Whitby Staff Writer) 1f Canada wants to increase her trade and meet competition in the markets of the world, she must re- duce her costs and unify her tran- sportation systems, or else reduce her population and consume her own such was in brief the of the Wiuto by Mr. George W. McLaughlin, ot Oshawa, at a supper meeting held in the Council Chamber Thursday even- ing. Mr, McLaughlin was 'a mem- ber of the Canadian Trade Mission comprising representatives of Cana- dian manufacturers, which recently made a tour of countries in South America, and his description of the many places visited the lite and cus- toms of the peoples, prefaced with a historical background, and illustrat- ed with moving pictures taken on the tour, was highly, interested and in- structive. - The truth of the old adge that one half of the world does not know how the other half lives," was more than brought home, while the audience of men and women was giv- en a new conception of empire trade. to Return Mr. McLaughlin, notwithstanding his interesting trip, and expressed liking for some of the places visited, was free to confess that he was glad to return to Canada where conditions, nothwithstanding this period of de- pression were highly favorable in comparison with some of which he had gained an intimate knowledge. Canadians hardly knew that they were alive, said the speaker. A M. Irwin, president of the Chamber of Commerce, presided, and to his left was Mayor C. E. Bow- man. There was a fine attendance of business and professional men, while not a few ladies graced the fes- tive board. The supper was provided by the Women's Institute and an ex- cellent meal it was, The ladies mer ited the many tavorable comments made. The tables were tastefully de- corated and wcll laden with good things to which full justice was done. Mayor Bowman pir to Mr, Mc- Laughlin's address led the commun- ity singing, with Mrs. A, E, Kearney at the piano. During the evening two new members, Dr. Mills and W. W. Armstrong, were introduced, also two visitors from Oshawa, C. M. Mundy and A. R. Alloway, of the Mundy-Goodfellow Printing Comp- any and publishers of the Oshawa Daily Times and Whitby Gazette and Chronicle. The speaker of the evening was in- troduced by Mr. G. M. Goodfellow, who stated that no man was more welcome in Whitby than Mr. Mc- Laughlin, and none more. able to Speake on the great topic of empire trade. SPeaks of Many Countries While Mr. McLaughlin made a more extended reference to the Ar- gentine republic and its great capi- tal, the 'city of Buenos Aires recent- ly visited by the Prince of Wales and his brother as empire trade and -will ambassadors from Great ritain, he touched also on Cuba. of which Havana is the capital; Uru- guay, and its capital, the fine city of Montevideo, the British port of Trinidad, and Brazil, All of these countries, with. the exception, per- SUNDAY EVENING, SACRED , concert by the band and sonz- sters of the Salvation Army at 8.30 p.m, Don't miss this, ° (96a) RUMMAGE SALE, 1.30 BATUR- day afternoon in Simcoe St. Church basement, for sale.

McLAUGHLIN Who, in an address at Whitby stated -- that Canada can increase her trade in world markets. . SEA SCOUT NOTES A week ago last Tuesday the 8th Oshawa Sea Scouts were hon- oured with a visit of the 48th To- ronto Troop under Scoutmaster Harry Jamiéson. There were plenty of competitions and several new games after which the usual camp- fire was held. One of the Toronto boys favoured with a talented har- monica solo which was encored enthusiastically. The 8th now have an invitation to visit the 48th during the Toronto Boy Scout Circus to be held in May. After sea chanties the méeting was dismissed and after much cheering and hand shaking the 48th left for home. Last week the regular meeting was held and the boys took up their regular work once more. Next week every boy is asked to be present as there are several important announcements to make. Please keep this in mind and be on hand sharp at 38 bells in the 2nd Dog Watch with running shoes. TIME TABLE BY, OSHAWA, BOWMANVILLE war BUS LINES eek Schedule (Effective w oe April 13th, 1931) Going West Arrive Arrive Whitby = Hospital haps, of Cuba, with its close proxim- ity to United States, were import- ing from other countries vast quan- tities of goods, many of which were made in and could be supplied by Canada. He was particularly impres- sed with the opportunities for great development in the Argentine, a young country which had made great strides in recent years. Mr, Mec- Laughlin's knowledge of South Am- erican history added much to the in- terest of his address, and it proved to be highly educational. Havana with it historical places so much sought out by tourists, the hospitality of its people, and its exceptionally low death rate. Uruguay, a country with some of the most advanced social legislation in the world and very beautiful and well kept capital, the city of Montevideo with which he was very much impressed, and Brazil, full of historic interest, were describ- ed by Mr, McLaughlin. Everywhere he and those with him visited they were royally entertained and extend- ed the warmest hospitality. Several films illustrative of the tour were thrown, on the screen, adding much to the intérest and val- ue of the address. The machine was operated by Mr. Norman Irwin. A vote of thanks to Mr, McLaugh- lin for his kindness in coming to Whitby to give of his time and tal- ent was proposed by Mr. A. G Browning, K.C., and seconded by Town Clerk and Treasurer John R. Frost, Mr. Browning referred to the fact that while Mr. since his return home recently had received several invitations to speak of his trip, he had given Whitby the preference, and he felt that in this respect, the town was highly honored. Mr. McLaughlin also referred to the fine meal provided by the ladies. The singing of the national an- them brought a pleasant and profit- able evening to a close. "HAPPY DAYS" INSURES HAPPY NIGHTS From all the way across Can- ada comes the word, "Don't miss seeing the Dumbells this year." Their newest revue, 'Happy Days" appears to have.been a misnomer. It should have beem 'happy nights", except on those days when matinees are played. It is gratifying to hear that the Dumbells have come back with a bang this season. It gives rise to the hope that they may fore- stall their farewell tour for many years to come. The boys of the old brigade are not greyhounds yet. In fact, for pep, give us "Red" Newman any day. 'Red" and his side-kick, Pat. Rafferty, are the two funniest comics we have ever seen together. They are a team, useless each without the other. But together, what a team. Al, Plunkett is still the matinee idol of yore, a bit older perhaps, yet still retaining that million dollar smile and the gurgling laugh behind the song. Cameron Geddes, the operatic basso, is back with the company a) two years abroad. Audre Carline, a new star of the younger generation, seems to be one of the outsanding hits of the show, as does the ballet and chorus that with Miss Carline was the feature of "Sinbad, The Sail- or," during:the pantomine season in Toronto 'and Montreal, The Dumbells have been booked to present "Happy Days" at the Regent 'theatre for a midnight matinee next Tuesday, under the auspices of the Canadian Legion.

Not for some years has decoration day been recognized in Bowmanville and is hoped to revive the spirit this year. July Sth has been selected as the day tor the dedication of the gates. The gates were erected last fall and named the McGill Gates af- ter James McGill who left property in Washington, D.C,, valued at nearly a quarter of a million dollars to the town, The plans formulated so far call for a procession, in which all local organizations will be invited to take part, forming at the corner of Scugog and Church streets, marching down Church street to Temperance Street, where a brief halt will be made while the Mayor lays a wreath on the cenotaph. The procession, which will be headed by the Canadian Le- gion and Drum and Fife bands will then proceed to the cemetery where the dedication will take place. Some prominent person will be asked to cut the ribbon and formally open the gates. A platform will be erected inside the gates from which the speakers will address the crowd. All Bowmanville ministers will take part and the arrangements for the cere- mony have been left in their hands. Following the dedication of the gates the cemetery will be thrown open for the decoration of the graves, Councillor Lockhart, who heads the committee, is expecting that hun- dreds' of Bowmanville old boys and girls will return to the town for this day. In Orono the population of the village is more than doubled on Decoration Day and it is expected that a like increase will take place | here, NEWS ABOUT TOWN | Inguest Postponed The inquest into the death of Miss Melinda Potter whose body was found drowned in Vanstone's Creek a week ago was postponed last night by Crown Attorney Boggs, of Co- bourg, It will be held in the coun- cil chamber tonight.

DEALERS (Continued from page 1) tors cars and other products in Can- ada, with their employees, are eligible now under the group plan. It is re~ quired that a minimum of 75 per cent of the employees of individual dealers must subscribe, but it is be- lieved that the number voluntarily applying will be more like 95 ner cent, of the total. The cost of the insurance is shouldered jointly by the dealers and the employees, For class- es of employees earning less than $3000 annuglly, the cost is only about three cents a day, and the emplo~er contributes half that much. The em- nloyers bentfit, it is pointed out, by improving the welfare of each em- ployee who joins, and this should re- sult in a greater efficiency and con- tinuity of service. Other than this, no benefit whatsoever accrues to General Motors by the extension of the group plan. No medical examination is required and participation is free of the usual technicalities and limitations. The minimum policy is $2000 Monthly pavments in the case of disability are $52.50. It is anticipated that another month will see most of the Canadian dealers and their employees signed up in the "half billion dollar" policy, first in the history of insurance.
