THE OSHAWA DAILY TIMES, THURSDAY, NOVEMBER 28, 1940 PAGE FIVE | CASE. ORDERS NAME PRIVATE AS RAID HERO Alberta Man Freed Vic- tims From Debris of Bombed Buildings While Attackers Still Overhead Somewhere in England, Nov. 28-- Pte. W. R. Owens from Drumheller, Alta, who freed several persons trapped in debris of a bombed build- ing in a Southeast England town, was mentioned in the routine orders of the Canadian Active Service Force. It was believed the first time in this.war that an act of gallantry has been recorded in Canadian Routine orders. The orders commending the pri- vate in the Royal Canadian Army Service Corps said bombs fell in the town last Sept. 20 and several houses were destroyed. "Although the air raid was in pro. gress, and at considerable danger to himself, Pte. Owens entered a de- molished building and succeeded in liberating several persons trapped in the wreckage,' the orders said. "There is no doubt that through the efforts of this solder more than one person was saved from serious injury and possible death. His con- duct throughout was worthy of the highest traditions of the service. "The G.O.C. 1st Division (Maj.- Gen. G. R. Pearkes, V.C.) is pleased to commend this action of Pte. Owens."

Mr. Carswell. was the 'man who put Canadian shipyards to work after the war started. He worked out a satisfactory price basis after | first attempts at letting construc- tion by tender had failed. He Is now the man called on to expand facilities and to multiply produc- tion. A dour Scot, the ship controller ers were given David B. Carswell, | aq cerved as a marine engineer in director-general of naval construc- tion, in a move to increase the ef- fective capacity of Canada's ship- yards. Announcement by Munitions Min- ister Howe that Mr. Carswell had been named controller of ship con- struction and ship repairs signifi- cantly followed within a few hours the British statement that ship con- struction was not keeping pace with ship detsruction. While Canadian shipyards have been working to capacity for some months, it is believed the extension of Mr. Larswell's powers fore- shadews an important ir/ease in Canadian construction. It is reported that a small army of experts will shortly arrive in Canada from both naval and com- mercial yards to assist in putting into effect the greatest speed drive in shipbuilding this country has ever known. During the last war, Mr. Carswell was superintendent of the Detroit Shipbuilding Company, which produced a 4,000-tcn stee: vessel every eight days. He is de- termined now to create new records Canada's shipbuilding program is expected to develop along two new lines. Mr. Howe announced last week that 18 large merchant vessels were to be built for the British Government. Naval Minister Mac- donald announced at the same time that Canada had asked for British experts to assist in a program of destroyer and cruiser building in this country. So far the largest na- val vessels built have been corvettes As shipbuilding controller, Mr. Carswell will be able to determine priorities. He can use his discretion in allocating work, designate the facilities to be used for any ship requiring repair, and distribute any machines and tools employed by the industry. He can order a boat to go to Montreal, instead of Halifax, for re- pairs. He also has the complete say where work is to be done. If necessary, he can take over any shipbuilding plant and operate it himself if he feels that the own- ers are not getting the maximum production out of their facilities.

OTTAWA TO SEE FAIR PAY GIVEN ON CONTRACTS Any Shortage in Wages to Be Paid From Fund Ottawa, Nov, 28.--Direct respon- sibility for payment of fair wages on all Government contracts was assumed yesterday by the Depart- ment of Labor. Labor Minister Norman McLarty made public regulations embodied in an Order-in-Council which make the Deputy Minister of Labor not only responsible labor regulatiens to meet the emer- gency situation is now being draft- ed. To make certain that fair wages | are paid workers, announced provide that the Gov- srnment may stop payment to con- tractors of any money found due | workers and pay this to tiie workers direct. A fair wage suspense account is to be created in Ottawa and into this fund will be paid the differ- ence between what employers have been paying men and what Gov- ernment investigators decide is the workers' due. Alberta Oil Production Shows 10-Months Gain Calgary, Nov. 28 (CP)--Alberta's oil production in the first 10 months of 1940 was more than 400,000 bar- rels in excess of the record produc- tion of the corresponding period of 1939, according to a report of the Provincial Petroleum and Natural Gas Conservation Board issued yes- | terday. Production for the first 10 months of 1940 was 6,813,347 barrels com- | pared with 5.296614 in 1939. Oct- | ober 1940 vield was 793,025 barrels | and a d average of 25774 bar- rv ily the regulations | SANTA SCORN NAZI TOYS - BUYS BRITISH Lots of German Pre- War Goods on Hand, But Public Won't Buy --Japanese Suffer, Too Toronto, Nov. 28--Santa Claus will have plenty of toys in his bag this Christmas despite the Nazi domina- tion of several world-famous toy- making countries. The toy industry has been stepped up to a great extent in England, U.S. and Canada to fill the gaps. As a matter of fact, Toronto wholesale merchants have expressed the opinion 'that the small countries of Europe will never regain their one- time status in the toy-making world. German = made playthings, of course, will not be seen on the store counters throughout the nation, al- though there is said to be a consid- erable stock on hand in some ware- houses -- leftovers from previous | Yuletides. The Germans are special- ists in the manufacture of metal | toys, and in years past their pro- | ducts were soid in large volume in | | Canada. © "We sold $38,000 worth of Ger- ! man toys a few months ago for a | "song'," a department store execu- tive declared. "Even though they were made long before war broke | out we wouldn't dare put them on the counter." The spokesman explained that the toys were sold as one order to an out-of-town buyer. {For the life of me I don't know how he is going to get rid of them," he said. Japanese-made toys will be few | and far between because of the un- | friendly attitude which exists be- | | tween this country and the Japs. | However, some Japanese shipments | | of toys are still arriving in Cana- | dian ports, but not nearly in the quantity of a few years ago.

Watson Coo Ltd, Torents -- Established 1074 Gusicy FRESHNESS for BREAKFAST-LUNCH or DINNER for investigating | claims for payment of wages set out | in the fair wage 'schedule embodied in Government contracts, but fer seeing that these claims are paid. The regulations provide that con- tractors must deliver to the Gov- ernment a cheque for the full amount of any shortage discovered in wage payments, and that the Deputy Minister will be responsible for seeing that this is paid to the workers concerned. As a great part of Canadian in- dustry is now working on Govern- ment contracts, the regulations are considered the most sweeping ex- tension of the fair wage principal yet undertaken in Canada. They have been drafted, Mr. McLarty said, as a result' of representations made by labor. The belief was expressed that this is the first step in a Government move to establish definitely certain rights of labor before proceeding to take emergency measures likely to limit the freedom of workers in other directions. It is believed that it is the fore- runner of a move to enferce a strict stabilization of wages throughout the country. This was recommend- ed last week by an industrial dis- putes board of conciliation sitting in Montreal, and added significance was given to the recommendaticn by the emphasis placed "on it in Labor Department publicity re- leases, So far no direct move has been made to control the level of indus- trial wages in war plants, but some such move is considered likely, Fi- nance Minister Ilsley made it clear last week that the Governmen, is determined to fight any infiattonar, | move, and wage pegging, as well as price. pegging, is a. likely weapon in the fight. | Already the Government has | undcr penalty of a fine forbidding factories to bid against each other | 2ft-r =ix I0.C.AF. mon were forced to Yui cu' ef pr'rol hember, Three | cf rr whch C iv" izh:s the hope of fiz. 13 the remcé.ing three alive, n rzs:ued, but | jC for employees.

"They simply refuse to buy Japanese products. That attitude isn't exactly fair, as Japan is still buying large quantities of goods from Canada. We can't cut off our imports of toys entirely." The Japs, he said, were expert toy piano makers and manufacturers of toy dishes, Dezpite the efforts of both English and American manu- facturers, the Nipponese were still the best toy piano makers in the world, he added. Products of Czechoslcvakia, w end and hair-covered toys, once popular in this country, are now very scarce, The last shipments were received some months prior to the German occupaiion of the Czech territory. Some old stocks are still | on hand, but the public is under the | false impression they were made by | Nazi-controlled labor. Actually they were made long before Czechoslo- vakia was taken over. Austrian-made products are in the same position. Canada Steps Up With the shutting out of supplies | from the continent and the opening , up of new markets on this continent, | | England has gone into the toy in- dustry on a stupendous scale in the past year. Its most popular products are dolls and toy metal soldiers. Canada has developed her own toy- making industry in the past' few years to such an extent that home. made products are most popular. Canadian-made dolls are said to be as fine as any made in either Eng- land or the U.S. The sale of toy soldiers has sky- rocketted since the outbreak of war. One department. store has a huge display of "war" toys, including sol- diers, tanks, small and big guns, and | scores of other articles--all made in Great Britain, "I suppose it is the psychological tie-up between real war and make- beliece war of childhood that has boosted our sales," a storekeeper de. clared. "The only thing we're wor= ried about is slock--we're afraid we haven't enough of it." 1 PEP KELLY TO PROVIDENCE Chicago, Nov. 28.--Reg (Pep) Kelly, forward with Chicago Black Hawks of the National Hockey League, was 'armed out yesterday to Providence Home Made Style Mrs. Hamilton's Economy Brand Moist Mincement Happy Vale - - SALE AAT Saxonia Cut Citron Peel Saxonia Cot S| A) 81 Turned Down Caps Citron Peel Cut Mixed Tarned Down Caps Orange and Lemon Turned Down Caps--Mixed Lemon, Orange & Citron - - . . . . - 14-1b. er Tim IAL Australian Fancy Seeded Lexias - Australian Golden Sultana Raisins Australian with Seeds Lexia Raisins South African Sultanas Bleached Raisins Australian Recleaned Seedless Raisins California Thompson Seedless Raisins ustralian Recleaned Currants a™ Is.
