'WEDNESDAY, SEPTEMBER 30th, 1931 More School Accommodation ' On Monday evening a deputation of citi- wens from the College Hill district appeared before the Oshawa Board of Education and presented a petition asking that a small school be built in that part of the city. The deputation, through its spokesman, made out a good case. All the children in that area, it was pointed out, had to walk a long distance to, either the Simcoe Street South School or the Cedardale School, and had to brave the dangers of heavy traffic to do so. In all, there were approximately 200 chil- dren, it was stated, attending these two schools from the College Hill district, and in addition to these, there will be 142 more ready for school next year. Thus, their claim for a school in that area seemed to be based on solid grounds. The chairman of the board, however, had other views to present to the deputation, and his figures showed a condition of con- gestion in the northern schools far greater than exists in the schools in the south of the city. The Northwest ward, for ins- tance, has no school at all within its boun- daries, and the children there have to at- tend either Centre Street school or North Simcoe Street School, both of which are al- ready overcrowded. Mary Street School and King Street School are also crowded beyond their normal capacity. : It looks as if Oshawa is once again fac- ing the problem of school accommodation. This year there is an increase of 160 in the number of pupils attending public school, and the present schools, with one or two exceptions, are all filled beyond capacity. Whether a school in the College Hill dis- trict is the greatest need, or whether the northwestern or northeastern parts of the jeity should be given attention first, is a Doubtless the board, in considering the petition from College Hill, will consider the situation all over the city and this, after all, is the only sound basis on which to analyse the city's weeds for school accommodation. Give a Man a Job : A year ago, The Times sponsered a cam- paign in Oshawa to provide casual work for men in the ranks of the unemployed. This campaign proved to be very success- ful, and was the means of bringing hun- dreds of men out of work in contact with citizens who had jobs to do, and who mere- X needed to have the matter brought to eir attention to produce action. The time has again come around when an-ap- peal of this character should bring a satis- factory response. At this time of the year, there are gardens to be dug and made ready for the winter, cleaning up to do around the grounds of most houses, storm windows to put up and windows to clean, furnaces to be put in shape for the winter, and so on. One could compile a long list of odd jobs which need attention now, and which could keep a man busy around the house for at least one day, and in many cases for two or three days. Citizens who have the means can help to keep the wolf from the door of many fami- lies by calling an unemployed man for this york. .4flley will have a double satisfac- fon in so doing. The work will be done, and will cause no further worry, and there will be the knowledge that some needy fa- mily has been helped by providing work for the breadwinner. There is a long list of . unemployed laborers and handy men at the local employment office, 8 Bond Street East and a telephone call to No. 547 or 548 will bring an immediate response, won't you look around, tabulate the odd jobs that 'need dojng, and then reach for the tele- «Rhone to call for a man to do them. Highway Billboards 'he American Institute of Park Execu- ves, meeting, in convention in Toronto de a strong reference to the obnoxious d unsightly character of billboards which ve been erected adjacent to the provin- highways of Ontario, and passed a ng resolution demanding the abolition f all kinds of tbadside billboard publicity. This resolution is in line with the ideas of great number of people who have been msed beyond measure by the blighting he beautiful landscapes of Ontario by ds painted in gaudy colors. Most people are anxious to preserve the beauties | the Ontario landscape, one of the great- it assets of the province from the stand- SER gl holidays at Osh- 1 THE OSHAWA DAILY TIMES, WEDNESDAY, SEPTEMBER 30, 1931 ment to pass legislation placing a rigid ban on these billboards There are usually ar- guments on both sides of any question, but from the public Viewpoint there is nothing that can be said in favor of unsightly bill- boards which mar the natural beauties of the province. And those responsible for them should: realize that their presence along the highways causes resentment ra- ther than good-will in the minds of the peo- ple who see them. The Association of Park ° Executives will not find itself alone in ap- pealing to the government to remove these eyesores, and their voice will perhaps add weight to the pleas which have already been made in this connection. Editorial Notes Golf is a sporting game, and the local golfers showed themselves to be real sportsmen and sportswomen by raising a sum of $137 to help the unemployed. Services are being held in thanksgiving for the safe gathering of the harvest. The thanks would be a little more sincere if the prices for farm products were a little bet- ter, ' Let us try to find some consolation, at least, in the knowledge that conditions in Canada are nothing like they are in China. The government, in giving contracts such as that at Oshawa harbor, ought to take some steps to see that as much manual la- bor as possible is employed.

CUT IN RAIL WAGES Says Michigan Central | Pays Higher Scale. Than Canadian Lines Ottawa.-- "The Brotherhood of Railroad Trainmen is entirely opposed to the view that reduc- tions in wages will mean an ad- vanced step in improving the al- together abnormal business con- «ditions now and for some time in effect," Hon, James Murdock, vice-president of the Brother- hood of Rallroad Trainmen, has stated. 'Canadian railroadmen have, since December, 1926, been working for 7% per cent lower wages than the rates paid to similar classes of employes in the Eastern United States terri- tory," he continued. 'Today a Michigan Central brakeman will come into the city of St, Thomas at a wage rate 7% per cent high- er than that paid to a Canadian National or Canadian Pacific brakeman working out of St. Thomas or other terminals. Rail- road men cannot readily under- stand why they should be cut 10 pér cent under these conditions especially when they realize that many of the commodities which they uso cost more in Canada than they do in the United States, For example, it is well known that automobiles in many inter- national lings cost largely more in Canada {han in the United States.

It is understood that Sir Hick- man proposes to make "cuts" of from 5 to 50 per cent. in the rents, which event at the present scale of from Gs. to about 12s. an acre, are among the lowest in the district. The Gainsborough estate has been In the Bacon family for several generations. Sir Hickman is a man of frugal habits, but has often shown himselZ most generous in deserv- ing cases. He told a reporter that the reé- ductions would be based on the condition of the farms and the ability of the individual farmer to pay, "IT have not asked to see any of the farmers' balance sheets," he said, "but T am certain from observations of prices that they difficulty in existing. "More and more land 1s being put down to grass, and this will continue so long as the present position lasts, Rather than see my land go out of cultivation I would let them for nothing. "Unless the English farmer can have a guaranteed price for his produce from some source or another, agriculture will further decline, "I have seen reports of foreign corn coming into this country at ruinous prices--at figures which would not cover the cost of the harvest in England. One of my own tenants, in fact, is using Russian corn for feeding stock. "I know from conversations with my tenants, and from opin- fons made on the position at the beginning of the year, that the winter is bound to be one of the blackest on record. Surely it should be within the ability of this country to remedy the pres- ent state of affairs."
