Power, who left recently to fill a mew position at Fort Frances, Ont., Mr. Stockill has been identified with the Canadian Le- gion, and with former veterans' organizations for a number of years, and his experience of sec- retarial work is expected to make him a valuable official to the lo- cul branch, which, by reason of its rapid growth, has reached pro- portions entaiilng a good deal of secretarial work, The question of appointing an assistant secretary was considered by the executive, but left in abeyance for the pre- sent. Arthur Gladman, the fin- ancial secretary, will continue to act in that capacity. MODERATOR TO VISIT OSHAWA There are few busier men in Canada today than Dr. E. H. Oliver, Moderator of the United Church. Daily in many import- ant centers he is speaking in be- half of 'sorely tried . congrega- tions located on the severely parched prairies. Tomorrow he meets the Peterboro Presbytery and later in the day comes to Oshawa. Tomorrow evening the laymen of Oshawa and vicinity will meet and welcome him at a supper in the school room of Simcoe St. Church. Following this at eight o'clock he addresses a public mass meeting in St, Andrew's Church. The untiring Moderator certainly is entitled to all the en- couragement that a crowded au- dience could give him. SNOW IN ALBERTA ~ QUENCHES FIRES Huge Flakes in Foothills Hamper Harvest -- Re- lieve Dry Streams Calgary, ' Sept. 10. -- Huge snow flakes spread themselves over the foothills of southern Al- berta yesterday, ending the for- est fire threat and relieving the Cried streams and rivers where fish had been stranded in little pools when the water disappear- ed in the extremely dry weather. The snow's initial appearance of the season hindered harvestiog operations but it was welcomed by the weary forest-fire fighters. Fires raging in the vicinity of Coleman and Blairmore, Alberta, for the past two weeks have been extinguished by the first snow fall which was preceded hy a drenching rain that continued for two days, Lethbridge re. ported snow covering the moun- teins with several inches in the valleys. Fire-fighters who main- tained constant vigil since Aug. 25 in the mountains, are trekking homewards. In the Calgary district snow commenced about 9 o'clock yes- terday rning» Large flakes tumbled "downward, melting as quickly as they struck the ground The countryside has received a good soaking since rain' com: rienced on Sunday.

Oshawa is by no means lagging in this respect. In fact the Public Library is almost too small to ac- commodate its patrons. Up to the end of August 1931, 108,597 books were circulated from the Public Library. This was an increase of 14,645 books over last year when 93,952 books were used. New readers joining the library number 1,102 an §n- crease of 129 over the new read- ers for 1 930. In the adult department, 14,- 457 non-fiction and reference books have been used and 69,998 fiction, making a total of 84,455 books circulated. The Boys' and Girls' Library have circulated a total of 24,122 books; of these, 9,289 were non-fiction and 14,- 853 fiction. : The following are the number of books circulated in each divi- *sicn up to the end of August: Adult Juvenile 82 27} 613 6 481 72 949 1,159 77 2 646 1,613 838 1,696 1,565 1,616 : 1,616 .. 69,988 2665 General Works .

BRANCH OF LLP. FORMED IN CITY Principles of Organization Are Set Forth By Its Secretary ni, A branch of the Independent La- bor Party of Canada has been form- ed in Oshawa.. J. Smith has been elected president, while other of- ficers include J. Wattison, vice- president; A. Broad, treasurer; and A. Ayres, secretary. An executive of ten is also to be electeds The local branch has now a tot- al of 30 members and wants it distinctly understood that no Com- munists are allowed in its ranks. "We have nothing whatever to do with Communists," A. Ayres, secre- tary, emphasized in a statement to The Times today. "The Independ- ent Labor Party does not believe in the use of force nor in the destruc- tion of property. Neither does it indulge in unpleasant personalities or unjust criticisms. Although sympathizing with the unempolyed and steadfastly urging changes an the present economic system so that the causes of unem- ployment may be abolished, Mr. Ayres declared that the local branch of the Independent Labor Party had no brief for the Unemployed Association of Oshawa. He intim- ated that the party had been sub- jected to false accusations and mis- representations on the part of lead- ers of the Unemployed Association. It is the intention of the newly organized branch to hold regular meetings at which leaders in the Canadian labor movement will speak, "We also hope to have addresses "R28 1,388 312 597 533 2,044 656 14,8563 1,621 on subjects related to labor and social problems," Mr. Ayres said. PLEAD GUILTY TO STEALING TREES Three Men Placed on Sus- pended Sentence by Making Restitution Three men, Steve Neckforuk, Harry Rutz and Harry Dobring, who it was alleged stole trees from the City Farm were placed on suspended sentence in police court yesterday and told that they must pay the costs of the court and make restitution for the damage they Lad done. A similar charge laid against Wil- liam Bessie was dismissed. Neckforuk and Rutz pleaded guilty to the charge, while Dob- ring, who was represented by D. . J. Swanson, pleaded not guilty but was found guilty of the offense by the court, Dobring told the court that he had been asked to help get some wood out. and that he cut down the trees. He said that the work had commenced at three in the morning, which statement caused Magistrate Creighton to remark that it was rather early for hon- est men to start work, by professors and leading thinkers' A new plan of operation, in order to stimulate the use of gas, and in- cidentally in the hope of provding employment locally, is announced today by Ontario Shore Gas Com- pany, in connection with the in- stallation of gas services to homes which are not now served. The plan provides for the payment in easy instalments of the cost of in- stalling the necessary gas mains in- to homes, so as to spread the pay- ments over a period of ten months, Milner, general manager of the company, in making this an: nouncement, gave details as to the operation of the plan. In all cases of new service, the main from the supply lines on the street to the pro- perty line of the house will be pro- vided free of charge, while the main from the property line to the house Gas Company Announces New Installation Plans will be charged for at the rate of 30 cents a foot, which includes the cost of the pipe. Under the new system, one third of this cost must be *paid on installation, while the balance will be spread over a per- iod of ten months, and added to the gas bill in ten eqaul instalments, Thus, in the case of a home re- quiring twenty feet of mains from the property line into the building, the total cost would be $6.00. f this two dollars would be paid at the time of installation, and the bal- ance paid in ten monthly instal- ments of 40 cents each, Mr. Milner is hopeful that this new system will result in hundreds of new services being ordered, and this, in turn, will enable him to keep his gang of workmen employed for some time, A favorable climate and fertile soil may presently make Oshawa bloom like the Garden of Eden. Second crops of any type of vege- table are generally limited to dis- tricts in the sunny south. But Osh- awa's clime has been so fine this vear that one local resident, David Snodden, 245 Celina Street, reports a second crop of peas in his garden. Proof of the pudding is in the eat- ing, according to the old saying, and when a member of The Times Celina Street Gardener Grows Second Pea Crop staff sampled these peas sufficient proof was found. According to Mr. Snodden pods full of peas dropped from the plants when they ripened early this summer, The wind and rain thresh- ed the peas and as the seed lay scattered over the garden and Mr. Snodden decided to cover them with soil simply as an experiment. He was pleasantly surprised when the seeds took root, sprouted and ultimately produced as fine a crop as the first one. (By George Hambleton, Canadian Press Staff Writer) London, Sept. 10, --R¢t. Philip Snowden, a slim figure, arose painfully in a crowded House of Commons this after- noon. Leaning on two canes, in a speech of an hour and a half he balanced the British Budget. And as the chancellor resumed his seat he was accorded such an ovation as is given to few chan- cellors. Throughout his speech, almost to the very end, the Labor Opposition listened in respectful silence to the minister who re- nounced his party to play his part in the natiomal government. Onl when Mr, Snowden de- clared his firm belief the nation would accept the proposals, did the Laborites interrupt with cries of 'No, no." Mr. Snowden stopped and de- flantly faced the Socialists with whom he was associated for so many years. "And in so doing," he con- tinued, 'the nation will give the whole world an example of in- domitable British spirit in the face of difficulties." His peroration was again broken by Labor interruptions. In the din, sentences were lost. Then in a break, his voice could be heard--" Come the world against us, England yet shall stand." Mr. Snowden sat down and all about him Conservatives and Lib- Hon. British Chancellor' Presents New Budget erals rose to their feet cheering. They waved order papers and crowded about the front bench shouting congratulations. There were a few sympathetic cheers from the opposition too, but mostly the Laborites sat silent. Mr. Snowden made no response to the cheering, He sat as though tired out with his effort. Features of Budget London, Sept. 10--Features of Britain's emergency budget today are: Standard rate of income tax in- creased by six pence to five shill- ings in the pound, of 25 percent. Unemployment personal allow- ances for both married and single persons reduced. Allowance to industry for depre- ciation of plant increased to com- pensate for income tax increase. Surtax yields to be increased ten percent, Duty on gasoline raised by four cents a gallon, Excise duty on beer increased by two cents a pint. Customs duty on leaf tobacco in- creased 16 cents a pound. Entertainment tax increased 16 2-3 percent. Sinking fund provision $162,500,- 000 instead of $250,000,000. The above provisions are estimat- ed to turn an estimated deficit of $370,000,000 this year into a surplus of $10,000,000 and an estimated de- ficit of $8505,000,000 next year into a surplus of $7,500,000, to PARKWOOD HORSE WINS TWO AWARDS Storm Along, Owned by R. S. McLaughlin, Was Win- ner at C.N.E. Yesterday Storm Along, one of the ani- mals from the stable of R. S. McLaughlin, Parkwood, was a double winner in competitions at the Canadian National Exhibition. In a class of three year olds, classified as likely to become hunters, this animal was award- ed the first ribbon. In another competition for three year old likely to become saddle horses, the same animal was @iven sec- ond prize. Storm Along is one of the younger horses of the Park- wood Stables, but shows excel- lent promise of developing into a consistent prize winner at future exhibitions. These were the cnly classes listed yesterday in which horses from the satble of R. S. McLaughlin appeared yesterday, An Englishman, on his return from New York, was asked by a friend if he had any difficulty in obtaining a drink. He replied: "I 'should say not. There are so many bootleggers there that they wear badges, so they won't waste time trying to sell to each other!" WHEAT YIELD FAR BELOW LAST YEAR Gov't. Estimate Shows the Crop Will Give Only 246,000,000 Bushels Ottawa, Sept. 10.--The wheat crop in the three Prairie Prov- inces is estimated at 246,400,000 bushels in a crop report issued by the Dominion Bureau of Statistics. This {is substantially below the crop of 374,500,000 bushels in 1930. While there are bumper crops in Central Alberta, there is a complete failure in some southern regions of the Prairie Provinces. Higher wheat production is forecast in 'Alberta than in Saskatchewan, despite the fact that the seeded acreage in Alberta was only about half that in the other Province. "If the Provincial estimates are justified by the outturn, it will be the first time that Al- berta has been the leading wheat- producing Province," according to the report, Get Big Contract Peterboro. -- A contract for the manufacture of a large pour- tion of the tents that will be re- quired by the Ontario Govern- ment in constructing its portion of the trans-Canada Highway has Leen secured b yJ. J. Turner and Eons, of this city, it was revealed is morning. HUMANE SOCIETY T0 REPAIR THE ANIMAL SHELTER Plans Are Also Discussed for Junior Membership Campaign At a meeting of the Oshawa Humane Society which was held on Tuesday evening, a motion was passed to the effect that re- pair work on the animal shelter and pound would begin at once. The shelter which was never propertly finished in the first place, is in very poor condition and work must be completed be- fore the cold weather sets in. At present much of the plaster between the bricks has worn away and on damp and cold days it is not a fit place for the ani- mals. For some months a Junior Membership Campaign has been a topic of discussion at the So- ciety"s "business meetings, and it will be started in the very near future. The Society proposes to go about getting in touch with the boys and girls of the city, by firs¢ getting in touch with the teachers of the Public Schools. Friends and members of the Oshawa Humane Society are in- vited to take advantage of the accommodation provided for them at the Society's booth at the Ush- awa Fair ground during the three days of the Fair, next week. BRITISH PEOPLE WILL KNOW FATE THIS AFTERNOON Chancellor of Exchequer Will Announce Proposals to Balance Budget (By Canadian Press) london, Sept. 10--British people will know this evening what sacri- fices they must make and what bur- dens they must bear in order to re- store the nation to a firm financial foundation, The Rt. Hon. Philip Snowden, chancellor of the exchequer, after the closing of markets at five o'- clock, will reveal in the House of Commons the National Govern- ment's emergency proposals for averting the threatened half-billion dollar deficit in next year's budget. The man who walks the street in search of a job is already resigned to the expectation that he must suf- fer a ten per cent. reduction in the weekly dole of about five dollars. Wealthy people fear that duties on many luxuries will be boosted to produce $300,000,000 in additional revenue, LESSENED FIRE HAZARD STRESSED Chamber of Commerce Cites Arguments in Favor of Burying Wires ey Reduction of the fire hazard and the consequent favorabls re- action upon fire insurance rates, elimination of a constant source of danger and beautification of Ine streets are among the main reasons stressed by the directors of the Chamber of Commerce in urging that the city council in- terest the government in the pro- blem of substituting the ecuy's present system of overhead wires by an underground system through conduits, The Chamber of Commerce al- sc believes that if this project were undertaken it would employ a large number of jobless men and create work for a large num- ber of people within the confines of their own city and thus avoid transporting them to distant areas. In the resolution passed by the CLamber of Commerce directors te menace to life, causea wy overhead wires, is stressed. Such wires, supported by aging wood- en poles, constitute an ever pre- sent danger they contend and to support this theory point out that ten persons lost 'their lives in Ontario last year through coming in contact with live wires which had in some way dropped from the poles to the ground. College Opened Kingston, -- Regiopolis Col- iege, which has this year been taken over by the Jesuit Fathers, opened its doors Tuesday for the 1931-32 terms under the new management, This year Regiopolis takes another step in that it cpens for the first time as a boarding college as well as a day student college, DISTRICT FARMERS AGAIN WIN PRIZES W.

FEAR AVIATORS HAVE BEEN LOST Search Is Instituted For Fliers Who Tried to Cross From Japan Seattle, Wash., Sept. 10.--As anxious hours passed last night with transpacific air lanes hold- ing secret the fate of Don Moyle and Cecil Allen, coast guard cut- ters 'began a search of the north- ern seas, At 6 'p.m. the two youthful fliers were 54 hours out from Sabishiro Beach, Japan. They had gasoline enough to keep them in the air 49 hours at the most. Since a steamer sighted their sec- ond-hand plane, the City of Ta- coma II, 100 miles off the Jap- anese coast the night before last, silence had enveloped the young aavenfurers. Tonight, four coast guard ves- sels on patrol in the Bering Sea were ordered to proceed to Dutch Harbor, Alaska, and skirt the Al- eutians as far west as Attu Island. Captain H. D. Hinkley, com- mander of the Northwest Divi- sion, voiced the belief that the search was but a hopeless ges- ture, Smythe: "Crow married a spin- ster who owned over a thousand head of poultry." Robinson: How came she to marry him?" Smythe: "Just like a woman. If she can't get a man by fair means, she will \by fowl!" WORK TO COST $300,000 AUTHORIZED BY GOV'T. TO GIVE EMPLOYMENT Mayor Marks Receives Notice From J. A. Ellis as to Amount Which Will Be Available for Unemployment Relief Work in City LOCAL PROGRAM IS GREATLY REDUCED Municipalities All Over the Province Have Their Schemes Pared by Pros vincial Government -- Details of Work Approve ed Not Yet Received ---- The Provincial Government has approved of Oshawa's program of uuemployment relief works to the extent of $300,000 according Lo information received by Mayor E. Marks today from J. A. Ellis, special relief commissioner. Osh~ awa's program, like that nf other municipalities, was reduced to considerable extent by the pro- vince. As the approval of tne federal authorities is still to he received the city has not yet Leen given definite word concern- ing the actual works in which tle rrovincial and federal govern- ments will share in the cost. The unemployment relief plane of 31 municipalities, to the ex- tent of $6,500,000 were passed by the special Unemployment Relief Committee of the Ontario Gove ernment yesterday and have now been forwarded for final endorsa« tion by the federal authorities. The Toronto program approved totalled $2,600,000. The pro gram submitted by the city cail« ed for an expenditure of $5,82%5,~ 104. Hamilton asked for a $2,« 782,000 expenditure and the coms» mittee allowed $2,000,000. In a.most every case, 50 per cent. reductions were imposed by the government. York township will row proceed with an approved $500,000 program. Saraia, Kit. chener and Niagara Falls with a $150,000 program each, and Ot. tawa with a $261,000 program. The big cuts imposed yester- day are due, it is understood to the fact that many of the muni- cipalities included extensive building construction in their ap- plications. Incorporation of buildings in the government's re ilef policy is still being debated and Hon. Dr. Joseph D. Montieth, chairman of the committee, is uns able to say what decision may be reached in this regard. Oshawa's original program, ine volving an expenditure of approx= imately $1,000,000 had been pre- sented to J. A. Ellis by Mayor Marks personally. Interviewed today the mayor remarked that the city had reason to be fairly well satisfied with the govern- ment's action. : Recently Mayor Marks wrote Premier Henry pointing out the seriousness of the unemployment: situation here. Premier Henry replied stating that he realized that Oshawa had an excessive rroblem on its hands in propor. tion to its population and that for this reason particular attene tion would be paid to its needs NEW POLICY FOR ° CANADA IS URGED C.
