THE OSHAWA DAILY TIMES, THURSDAY, NOVEMBER 28, 1940 PAGE THREE 'Win War or Possession Worthless -- Conant VOLUNTEER GUARDS BEST ASSURANCE FACTORIES RUNNING SMOOTHLY Ontario Fire Marshall Claims Civil Guards Deing Much to Prevent Acts of Sabotage "The 45,000 Volunteer Civil Guards in the province of Ontario are one of our best assurances that nothing will interfere with the smooth running of our factories, which are now, more than ever be- fore, so essential to our war effort," said W. J. Scott, K.C., Fire Marshal of Ontario, in his address to the local branch of the Volunteer Civil Guards last night at the Legion Hall. The speaker contended that Can. adian industry was playing a far more important role in the war than was generally realized. The German war machine relies on mechanized equipment and machines and the only adequate method of combatting hem was with the products of Brit- nd Canadian factories. It is im- possible: to sheller an entire factory from aeri ttack and thus our factories in™ ada assume added importance use they are so re- mote from the scene of combat. The Civil Defense Committee which is under the supervision of the Attorney General's Department is aimed at the organization of lo- cal groups in each city who will follow a carefully arranged plan for meeting emergencies and co-operat- ing with peacetime public services. Aims of Defence Committee The five chief aims of the Civil Defense Committee are to supple- ment and assist the existing police and fire protection systems, to or- ganize and register for service all doctors, nurses, and other civilians trained in first aid work, to protect the public utilities such as gas and water, upon which our industry de- pends, and to organize an efficient method of providing transportation for large numbers of people on short notice. It was suggested by the speaker that the best way to accom- plish the latter aim would be to secure the names, addresses, and telephone numbers of all owners of trucks and similar vehicles, and en- list their Support: Mr. Scott stiéfed that a very use- ful field of activity for the Civilian Defense Committee is co-operation with police authorities in reporting any suspicious characters or possible saboteurs. In this connection the speaker quoted the case of Alexan- der Wolfgang Hauffe, of Rossland, B.C., who was convicted last Febru. ary 14 on the specific charge of "having in his possession a letter addressed to the German consul in Seattle, US.A, containing informa- tion likely to be directly or indirect- ly useful to the enemy." The case involved a plan to sabotage the plant of the Consolidated Smelting Co. at Rossland, which is a very im- portant source of war metals for the Canadian and British' governments. Assist Fire Dept. The are occasions during emer- gencies, the speaker reminded his audience, when the local fire depart- ments could he materially assisted by help from such volunteer organ. izations as the Civilian Defense Committee or Volunteer Civil Guards, especially in such tasks as controlling traffic and keeping spec tators at a safe distance. Mr. Scott paid glowing tribute to the fire de- partments in England who were doing such a wonderful job in fight- ing fires during air raids. "It is a fact that while the Canadidh Active Service Force has suffered to a re- cent dats only 127 casualties, there have been over 2,000 English fire- men killed." Accompanying the speaker was Mr. C. Caskey, Chief Inspector of the Fire Marshall's Office. Mr. Scott was introduced by Oshawa's Fire Chief Wesley R. Elliott. MIDLAND REGT, LAYS FOUNDATION FOR BRASS BAND Recruits to Be Given Further Training; Also as Stretcher Bearers In keeping with its reputation as a fine infantry unit, officers of the 1st Bn. Midland Regiment yesterday decided to form an outstanding brass band to accompany the Bat- talion wherever it may be central- ized or sent into action. Advertisements have been inserted in the outstanding papers through- out nearby localities so that any | bandsman who wishes to join an Active Service unit may continue his hobby or profession while doing so. Bandsmen will be recruited as stretcher bearers and will be given a course in this important work as well as further band training. Any person wishing to enlist in this capacity is advised to write to the Adjutant, 1st En. Midland Regiment at Cobourg as soon' as 'possible. The Midland Regiment has a his- tory of achievement which dates back to the Northwest 'Rebellion in 1885 and reached its peak ing the World War of 1014-18. low, its officers and men are again answer- ing the call to service with efficien- cy and spirit for which the men of these surrounding counties have be. come famous, Lieut.-Col. J. C. Gamey MM, as Commanding Officer of.the unit has approved the formation of the new | band which he expects will make its first appearance within a few weeks. The bugle band which has been operating for several months will be continued so that the ment will have two bands which will be a credit to the unit. Due to army limitations, only 20 or at the most 25 bandsmen will be enlisted. Those interested are urged to contact Battalion Headquarters as soon as possible. : ASK AID COUNTY COUNCIL FOR BETTER DRAINAGE SYSTEM IN RAMA TWP. Too Large a Proposi- tion for Twp. J Frank Kelly, MP, Says, J Should be Joint Ac- tivity / (Special to The Times) Whitby, Nov. 28.--A plea for a better drainage system resulting in direct benefits to farmers of Rama township was made before Ontario county council yesterday by J. Frank Kelly, M.P.P, for Muskoka- Ontario. Appearing before council at the invitation of Warden Leslie McMullen, Mr, Kelly asked the council's co-operation in "a matter of great interest not only to the township of Rama but to the coun- ty of Ontario as a whole." "It's tco large & proposition for the township and under the Drain- age Act of the provincial parliament would bz too hea cost.

SAYS NEW WORLD ORDER BASED ON DIVINE LAWS Canada Does Not Em- brace All of Ten Com- mandments, Speaker Claims Claiming that world events point to the end of the punishment age | and the near 1eturn of Christ and the end of all war on this earth, Mr. Wemp, an apostle of the British Israel Federation gave some sugges- tion for a new world order which is much in the public mind at the pre- sent time. Mr. Wemp addressed a meeting at the Temple Building last evening. The division of the world into three parts, prophesied in the Bible and suggested in the pyramids, has already begun, with the three axis powers, Germany, Italy and Japan recently holding a conference, Mr. Wemp said, and will constitute part of the new world order. This will comprise East Asia, Europe and Anglo-Saxon territory. The great earthquake foretold in the Book of Revelation may be an economic earthquake or a symbolic earth- quake and those things which can- not be shaken will remain. However, there is only one basis on which the new world order will succeed and that is God's laws which may be found in the Bible, Mr. Wemp as- ried. Many of our present laws are founded on the ten commandments, but it is a peculiar thing that Can- ada does not embrace all God's laws, r, Wemp said and pointed out that he law governing the sin of adult- ery is not carried out and neither is the law governing the resting of the land every seventh year obeyed; the wearing of mixed materials, the planting of mixed seeds and the can- celling of debts every seven years is disregarded. But one of the most important, the forbidding of interest or usury and the training of all men 21 years of age and over, are per- haps our greatest omissions and the cause of a lot of our troubles. Mr. Wemp claimed that every na- tion on earth was bankrupt, even if they didn't know it. And this has been caused by the interest system. The per capita debt in Canada is $863 and this debt will never be paid, simply oecause the people have not obeyed God's laws and forgiven debts every seven years and have also retained the interest system.

Your Committee has given this proposal due consideration and would recommend that the road known locally as the 3rd Conces- sion Line in said Township com- mencing at Simcoe St, North (which is the north limits of the City of Oshawa) and extending westerly on the 3rd Concession Line one mile to the northerly on this allowance for road between Lots 14 and 15 approximately 2400 feet, to the airport property. And also the road between Lots 14 and 15 extending southerly from the 3rd Concession Line a distance of 1; miles to intersect with King's Highway No. 2 be assumed as County Roads, an approximate dis- tance of 27% miles.

In the new world order this will be put into effect, he claimed. We have been praying for 1900 years for God's Kingdom to come to earth but we have not obéyed all his laws which would bring this about, Mr. Wemp asserted. He suggested that if we would know more about what {God intends we should study the book of Deuteronomy.

The House the debate will conclude before before early next week. The House is expected to adjourn until Feb. 17 when the debate ends. Labor Minister McLarty continues the debate today.

L. E. Car- diff (Con., Huron North) said in his maiden speech tHat the farm- ers never had a fair deal from any government, least of all from the Present one. The reason, he said, was cam- paign funds, Such funds were "much more conveniently collected In thousands of dollars than in Smaller amounts," with the result that the big interests expected Special assistance and get it." Rural people realized that the present crisis called, for more sac- rifice and effort.

GETTING SKATING RINKS IN SHAPE Five Public Cushions Arranged by City Council Ochawa skating enthusiasts will be glad to hear that work has com- menced on five public skating rinks planned bv the City for use of lo- cal residents this winter. The rinks are located at Midland avenue and Buckingham avenue, Roxborough avenue and Elgin street east, and at Cowan Park and will not require the erection of boards as snow will be used for the sides. Boards are already in place for the large rink which will be back in former years. The large rink a' Cedardale School will be restricted to school students during the day, but will be made available to the general public during the evenings. As yet no flooding has been done and this will not be done until there is definite indication that winter is here to stay. Flooding of the rinks will be done with assistance by the Fire Department while the erection of boards is being carried out by the Public Works Dept. ment members when they pretend to assume in this dark hour that trade will move through normal channels." Farmers, he said, had divorced themselves from the profit motive and were actuated by a deter- mined desire to serve in the front ranks of production, However, they had to have enough to defray ex- penses and cover their overhead. Bruce McNevin (Lib, Victoria, Ont.) said that while the bacon price uncer the new agreement with the United Kingdom gave the producer small chance of profit, the matter was settled as far as he was concerned if the agreed price was the top price Britain could pay. The price probably would work out to an average of about eight cents a pound, liveweight, whereas it was 8.75 most of this year and at the moment was 8.10. While anxious to protect and preserve Canada's democratic in- stitutions, he favored curtailment of the freedom of speech and:the freedom of the press if those steps were necessary to prevent under mining of the morale of 'the people and interference with successful prosecution of the war, .of the Public Utilities Buildings as | N CANADA MAY HAVE TO EXPEND ENTIRE ASSETS TO PROVIDE MUNITIONS Oshawa Soldier Sees Coventry, Birmingham Two former Oshawa residents, now serving in the Canadian army went a long way to meet.

TWO REMANDED | FOR SENTENCE BY MAGISTRATE Legless Driver, in Accident Had No License In Oshawa police court Wednes- day morning Geo. Dainard, Toronto, pleaded guilty to a charge of break- ing and entering a freight car in the Canadian National freight yards at Oshawa on October 16. It was al- leged that the accused and an ac- | complice removed a box of fish from | the freight car while the train was stopped in th: local yards to 'take | on water. A statement signed by Dainard and given to the local police said that the fish had been sold to an Athol street west busi- ness concern for $7.00. Accused was | remanded until December 3 for sen- tence. Also remanded for sentence was M. Young, 406 Park street, Niagara | Falls, Ont., who pleaded guilty to a charge of operating a motor ve- hicle without a driver's license. Ac- cused, who has no legs and has been seen on Oshawa streets frequently selling small articles, caused some surprise to the court by stating that | he was once granted a driver's li- | cense which has since been lost. The matter was brought before the court | as a result of an auto accident at the corner of King street west, and Centre street yesterday afternoon at 4:20 in which a 1929 model car driven by Young was damaged con- siderably in a collision with a ve- hicle owned by Smith Transport. Young's car was, in turn, pushed against a parked car owned by Wm. Lynde, 122 Montrave avenue, doing damage estimated at $50.00. Unbalanced Economy, Resulting From New War Industries De- manding More Men, Creates Problem (By Whitby Editor) Whitby, Nov, 28.--The entire ase sets of the British Empire must be expended if need be te provide munitions, guns, aeroplanes, battle. ships and other implements of war to trounce the barbarous Hun, in- volving, it is true, great personal sacrifices, otherwise nothing that we possess will be worthwhile, Hon. Gordon Conant, K.C., Attor- ney-General of Ontario, told a dinner gathering at the Ontario County Home last night during a frank discussion of problems facing this province and the dominion on account of the war. The Attorney-General, J. Frank Kelly, MPP. for Muskoka-Ontario, the warden and members of the County Council, county officials, mayor and Council of Whitby, ex= wardens and others were guests of Governor and Mrs, James Read at a gathering which has become not only a popular social affair. but also an occasion when national and local issues are discussed. Warden Leslie McMullen presided. Unbalanced Economy Problem One of the most difficult domes= tic problems in Ontario, if not In the Dominion, the Attorney-Gener- al said, was that of unbalanced economy resulting in the past six months from the sp2eding up of private industries and establishe ment of new war industries by the government for the manufacture of war materials, creating an urgent need for men. Consequently, many have left tbe farms to go into the towns and cities to work in indus- tries where they can make more money in one month than they could in a year farming. He had been told that one man had made as high as $100 in two weeks, "I am not criticizing this wage scale because I realize that absolute nece (Continued on Page 9, Col. 6) rp -- [ Good Advice for.
