Net Paid Circulation 9,240 TUESDAY, NOVEMBER 12, 1946 Careful Driving Needed Following the second accident west of Oshawa during the past week-end one man was heard to remark: The Highways Department should speed up the building of the new road. The old No. 2 Highway is too narrow and has too many curves." This may be so in a sense but the fact remains that many of the accidents occurring on our high- ways could be avoided if drivers exercised proper care and precaution. : Le wo This is the time of year when driving conditions are at their worst. This section of the province, bordering as it does on Lake Ontario, is subject to fogs which cut visibility to a minimum. Rains at this season of the year tend to make highways with their summer's accumulation of grease and oil as slippery as glass. Added to these hazards is the presence on the pavement of fallen leaves which can produce a dangerous skid without the slightest warning. It is the duty and obligation of every driver of a motor vehicle to have it under control at all times. That means that he can bring it to a stop within a short distance and also that skids will be eliminated. It is true the present Highway No. 2 was never con- structed to carry its present volume of traffic and that large transports are adding to hazards. However, until such time as the new dual highway is opened drivers must observe the rules of the road and be prepared to concede a point now and again rather than demand their full rights on the road. Remember how long you drive depends upon how well you drive. Average Per Issue FOR OCTOBER A Lasting Remembrance In thousands of communities in Canada and throughout the British Empire citizens yesterday stopped to honor the men who gave their lives on the field of battle in the two Great Wars. Almost without exception eloquent eulogies were delivered in which ideals were stressed. It seems to us, however, that the effect of the Remem- brance Day observances will be lost for want of personal action. For those who lost loved ones the day is a sad one. Their loss is still heavy upon their hearts. But to how many of the rest of us who have not experienced the rigors of battle or personal loss do the ceremonies have any real significance? : Remembrance Day is all very well in its place but its observance is empty unless we remember the sacrifice the fallen made through the years. Cut off in the flower of their youth, they gave up their cherished ambitions that we might continue to live a normal life. Many of their comrades have returned badly maimed. What are you and I doing to help them back to health and strength ? All too often they become the forgotten men. 3 hours Chicago Go T.C.A. and save hours for work or leisure...

AIR EXPRESS TRANS -CANADA A fea CANADA'S NATIONAL AIR SERVICE "If It Really Moves It's No Decoy" --Lewis in the Milwaukee Journal Expose And CrushFascism In America Says Robeson J By MARK HARRISON Paul Robeson, world famous star of stage, screen and radio, warned students that the world was slowly being led toward the brink of another war, when he spoke before a crowd that filled U.C's Junior Common Room at the University of Toronto, to capacity. He expressed concern over the hysterical outcry being heard today against Russia and against labour, and urged that the sources of these sentiments be brought to light. "We must crush every effort to preserve the status .quo," he de- clared. "There is a tremendous con- centration of wealth and power in the hands of a few men. This leads to the ideology that the Negro and the Jew are inferior. In Europe these men have been rounded up. They are the same guys that backed Hitler. They are the-same guys that helped Mussolini. They are the same guys that betrayed France, Norway, Austria and Czechoslovakia. They are the same guys that exist in America today." "What happens in America and Canada will have a great bearing on what happens in the rest of the world" he said. _ "You hear people say that we will change all this by democratic means. You can still see little demo- crats today throwing up their hands in horror because 1i Fascists were taken out and hanged in Nurem- berg. It is one of the greatest weak- nesses of our democratic way of life. As a Negro I can't be too con- cerned with what happens to these Fascists. Nothing was done when six million Jews were murdered in Europe or when Negroes were en- slaved and murdered by the mil- lions. It could have been stopped in Spain in 1936, when hundreds and thousands of innocent young men and women were sent to their death". He recalled his visits to England and to Wales where he worked in the mines and was accepted as an equal by the Welsh miners because in him they recoghized a kindred spirit," the spirit of an oppressed people, . "As we drove through tha villages and hamlets every door was crowd- ed with smiling, waving people. I shall never forget it. I was deeply moved." He believed the democratic world owed a debt to Russia for killing their Fascists before they could achieve too much strength. "I saw the Russian Fascists in 1934, I see the same men in America today." "If you're going to free the Neg- roes you must have a concentration of power, a dictatorship. But that's what Russia did. She had to occupy her entire country in the interests of the nation. In the one generation since the Revolution, Russians have regained all their freedom except the right to tell Stalin to go. But that is like an American soldier in the Battle of the Bulge saying 'Ike Eisenhower, you gotta go'. The dif- ference is this: My son, if he re- mained in Russia, could conceiv- ably take the place of Molotov; I cannot conceive him taking the g | place 'of Byrnes." ; "The day that America declares war on Soviet Russia will signify that Fascism has attacked the democratic peoples of the world and Y will fight Fascism wherever I see ® 20 Years Ago School Attendance Officer ©.

Percy is retirement students, General Montague praised the work of those who had served under him and urged that still closer liaison should ¢ exist between Canada and Great Britain. "I hope this nation will see its way clear to send staff officers to the Imperial Staff College and thé Defence College in Great Britain" said General Montague. "Officers of the non-pérmanent forces and even promising young members of Parliament should be able to take advantage of the Staff College" said Gen. Montague. Speaking of his experience with the Canadian Army Overseas, he said that the selection of officers and men had been much 'more efficient than in 1914. "There were bad men in the arm- ed forces", he said "but most of these were the result of broken homes, a thing we' must remedy in the future." General Montague had high praise for the British people noting the "character, courage and kind- ness" of the women. He also briefly urged that there should be compulsory military ser- vice in Canada but added "Having said that, I do not wish to press the point." Sun to Be Partially Eclipsed on Nov. 23 Toronto, Nov, 12--If it is a clear day, Toronto and this part of On- tario will fade into partia] dark- ness at noon hour on Nov. 23, when a 50 per cent. eclipse of the sun is scheduled. The eclipse will begin at 10:42 am. (ES.T.) and will last until 1:45 p.m. and at its maximum at 12:13, the moon will cover about half the sun's surface. Although in- teresting to laymen, officials at the David Dunlap Observatory state the eclipse will have little scientific value. The eclipse will be viewed across Canada and in Edmonton will be- gin at 8:25 a.m. and last until 10:28 ap. It will begin at the top rim of the sun and work across to the left edge, where it will disappear.
