CREDIT JEWELLERS ®. OSHAWA Rash of Ontario Strikes Sees Windsor Focal Point By The Canadian Press Windsor was the centre of On- tario's chief industrial tieups to- day as three construction projects were picketted in that city. Mean- while eity hal workers at Lon- don were thinking of striking, Windsor school caretakers were making demands and at Kingston five contractors signed new wage agreements, At Windsor members of the International Brotherhood of Hodcarriers, Building. and Com- mon Laborers (A.F.L.) walked out and demanded a 15-cent per hour wage increase. Picket lines were drawn up in front of the two eonstruction projects at Hi- ram Walker and Sons Ltd., and the ice cream plant of the Borden Co., Ltd, All are employees of Dinsmore McIntire Ltd., a con- struction form. Misrepresented Fred Sartain, secretary of the General Contractors' Association, said that organization would meet tonight to discuss the strike. "The whole thing's. been misre= presented," said S. E. Dinsmore, president of the company. Other A.F.L, unions in Windsor are supporting the strike, with carpenters, bricklayers, electrici- ans, plumbers and truck drivers refusing to cross the picket lines. Also in Windsor school careta- kers demanded collective bargain- ing, closed shop, checkoff and pay increases of from $200 to $400 per year. The separate school board agreed to review its finances in view of the salary demands. Painters Rounding out the Windsor lab- or picture, Joseph Durocher, bss- iness agent for local 1494 of the Brotherhood of Painters, Paper- hangers and Decorators of Ameri- ca (A.F.L,), said the union had negotiated wage increases, retro- active te April 1, for the local. Wages of spray painters and oth- er painters have been increased 10 cents to maximum hourly rates of $1.30 and $1.10 respectively. Two hundred men are affected. At Kingston five contfactors, not 'members of the Kingston Building Contractors' Association, signed new wage ggreements giv- ing carpenters and joiners, who went 'on strike last Friday, a raise of 20 cents an hour and a 40-hour week, Inside workers at London's City Hall plan a meeting. to dis- cuss a new agreement offered by city council and turned down by the union, The agreement deleted the Rand formula and compulsory checkoff, Hamilton At Hamilton 25 striking mem- bers of the operating engineers, local 793, were .still holding out for a 26 cents-per-hour wage in- crease and holding up construc- tion of a $3,000,000 cold roll mill and a $750,000 office building. H. C. Nichglls of the Toronto Builders Exchafige labor relations committee said the strike of 180 crane and steam shovel operators was delaying 50 construction pro- jectswand affecting 1,500 building workers, And at Fort Frances members of the International Brotherhood of Pulp Workers voted in favor of strike action to enforce de- mands for a general wage in- crease of 14 cents an hour, The workers, employed at the Ontario- Minnesota Pulp and Paper Com- pany, approved the action, to také effect in 30 days, by a 399- 63 vote, Hope to Promote Community Rink For Columbus MARY M. DYER Correspondent Columbus, May 12 -- The May meeting. of the Columbus Home and School Association was held in the school on Tuesday evening, May 6, with the President, Mrs. Miller, presiding. The meeting opened with singing of O Canada, followed with prayer by the president. Mrs. Mil- ler spoke a few words of welcome to Mrs. Jones, Mrs. Mounce, Mrs. Fisher and Mrs. Forrester of Osh- awa. Mrs. Miller thanked all for their efforts in connection. with the Euchre party. A motion was passed to turn over to Mr. Patton and Mrs. Spry the sum of $12 to purchase recreation- al equipment for the school. It was decided to postpone the ar- rangements 'foi the bazaar, to be held in the fall, until the next meeting. Mrs. Miller thanked those donating cups and saucers to the school. A committee was appointed to find out the possibilities of promot- ing an open air skating rink in Columbus. It was suggested that this is a large project for the Home and School Association to sponsor as the 'Association is just in its in- fancy. The need, however, for such a project is very great, especially for the children and the young people. It is hoped the entire com- munity will give a helping hand to the promoting of this much needed form of outdoor recreation. Mrs. E. W. Webber sang two de- lightful solos "Somewhere a Voice is Calling" and "Little One A-Cry- ing." Mrs. Gordon Evans played a piano solo. Mrs. Jones gave a short talk on the Aims and Purposes of Home and School Associations and also spoke of the literature which we might obtain and which should prove of assistance in our work. Mrs. Mounce spoke, giving several help- ful suggestions. Mrs. Fisher spoke of the meaning of "Founders' Day." The various ideas which these lad- ies were able to bring us should be of benefit to the Association generally. Mother's Day was observed in the Sunday school, the program being fairly closely followed. A short story was given by Miss Elaine Scott while Miss Marjorie Groat gave the main story. Mrs, Pereman, Mrs. Powell, Mrs. Ratcliffe, and Mrs. Smith sang a quartette. Following Sunday school service a splendid Mother's Day sermon was delivered in the Church, by Rev. G. W. Gar- dner to. a splendid congregation. There was a Baptismal Service at which Garry Kenneth and Diane Margaret, children of Mr. and Mrs, K. Powell, Larry Roger, son of Mr. and Mrs. H. Martin; Robert Bruce, son of Mr. and Mrs. Bruce Ormist- on; Garry Wayne, son of Mr. and Mrs. Leslie Gibson, were baptised. The choir sang two numbers. Personals » Russell Lane and Patsy visited on Sunday at the home of Mr. and Mrs. Gordon Lane, North Oshawa. Mother's Day guests at the home of Mr. and Mrs. T. Pereman were Mr, and Mrs. W. Allison, Miss Marie Herity, Mrs. J. Herity, Mr. A. Her- ity, from Toronto. Mr. and Mrs. Lorne Hoskin and boys, Solina. Mr. and Mrs, George Wilson and boys, Oshawa. Miss Elsie Dyer spent Sunday at home. On Saturday at 3 o'clock the Co- lumbus United Church was. the scene of a pretty wedding when Margaret Gimblett and Frank Simpson were united in marriage by Rev. G. W. Gardner. The bride, gowned in white taffeta and carry- ing a bouquet of Calla Lilies, en- tered the church on the arm of her father to music played by Mrs. W. Scott. The bridesmaid Miss Vera Ostle, cousin of the bride, of Osh- awa, was gowned in pink taffeta. Gordon Patterson of St. Catharines was the best man, while Wilfred Simpson, brother of the groom and Ray Gimblett, brother of the bride, acted as ushers. Their friends in this community wish them Very Best Wishes for a Happy Life. Plans Action On Price Front Oshawa and District Labor Coun- cil will take action on the price re- duction front by inserting adver- tisements in The = Times-Gazette and Bowmanville Statesman urging retailers to shave ' prices by "at least 10 per cent," it was decided last night. After M. J. Fenwick, council sec- retary, had read the draft of an ad- vertisement lashing out at 'greedy rwofiteers," John Barker suggested the message be re-worded in more concise fashion in order to attract reader interest, Answering a protest from thie O D.L.C, regarding the opening of an additional Prices Board oifice in Toronto after tiie closing of the W. P.T.B. offices here, Donald 'Gordon said in a letter that the extra To- ronto office was a "temporary ar- rangement" which had no bearing mu the closing of the Oshawa of- ce. When one council member pro- posed despatching another letter tc Ottawa on the subject, Mr. Fen- wick said he doubted whether any more letters "will get us any- where." "The reply every time has been that it was an economy meas- ure," he said. The Oshawa Street Railway's bus Service popped up on the agenda last night as council members rap- ped the slow service routes and the crowded conditions at rush hours. It was decided to write W. A, Wal- ford, of the Canadian National Transportation Company, urging better and more frequent bus serv- ice on the Ritson Road and King Street runs, as well as more ade- quate service during rush hours and on the Lakeview Gardens run, Council a motion calling on the Board of Health to press Robson Leather Co. to install sew- ers in the company's homes on Rowena Street. nil British Housewives Want Emancipation from Meals Served from Tin Can London, May 14 (Reuters). --Bri- tain's food-canning . industry is planning to step up production in the next four .years and make the country less dependent on' overseas canned goods, Some firms have planned to ex- pand their productive capacity by 100 per cent, and 50 per cent in- crease of canned fish output is ex- pected this year. One of the major problems facing canneries in the home. market is the British housewives' wartime prejudice against canned food. "The reaction of the average British housewife is 'how- soon can Wwe get fresh food?' 'They feel they need to be emancipated from the can," F. W. Smedley, head of one of Britain's pioneer canneries sald. "We believe this attitude is only temporary. When rationing is re- laxed and women can buy fresh food freely, they will turn again to tinned products for their quality variety and out-of-season appeal." Britain's canners believe that an immediate expansion of their in- dustry would save the, import of canned foods from the dollar areas and build up a reserve against any future food crisis. 'Handicapping this is the fact that the new metal strip mill in South Wales which will produce the majority of the tins will not be in full production until 1950. Existing mills are short of labor, many operate uneconomically and there are shortages of materials for making cans and cardboard cartons. Named Auditor G.

Not Assured The prospect that this year's bill will find its way into the law books 'was enhanced, but by no means agsured, in the Senate's | vote yesterday. In the first place, a Senate- House conference committee must work out a compromise version, If it follows the tough form that many House members would like, leaders unquestionably will be able to force its. acceptance by both Houses, But the chances that it woulC be vetoed by President Truman: would. be increased, Milder Edition A milder edition, more in line with that approved by .the Sen- ate, apparently would encounter 18ss risk of a veto. - : ,Truman has kept his own counsel' abbut what he intends to do, 2 = But if he vetoes the measure he finally receives, Capitol Hill un- doubtedly will witness the most intensive campaign in years by organized labor and administra- tion feaderg to get the veto 'sus- tained, It. requires' two-thirds ap- proval of 'those voting in each House. to override, 24 More Claimants To Vie for Edwards 'Estate' Bangor, Me., May 14--(AP)--Mrs. Lester L, Grant 'of Bangor said' yesterday she and 23 relatives would press claims for shares in the $800,000,000 Edwards "estate", said to embrace some 40 acres of valu- able land on Manhattan Island. Through her mother, the late Ada | Louise . Edwards Jones, and her grandmother, who was Ruth C. Ed- wards, Mrs. Grant is a directs des: cendant, she said, of the original holder of the property, which - in- cludes that occupied by the Trinity Church - Corporation in the down- town New York financial distriet. ' HELD LEASE At one time, Mrs. Grant said, her mother held the .original - lease of- the property. Her ancestors, she claimed, gave the lease for 98 years: and it ran out, she believes, in 1000. (Trinity Church officials have em- phatically denied that the Church ever was on leased land saying the property was an original land grant: from Queen Anne of England. Sev- eral times in the last 20 years | claims fo the 'Edwards "Fortune" have cropped up'only tobe thrown out of court.)

"The world we face in 1947 is in a similar position, no matter how peaceful we may think it looks to us, There are trucks rumbling through the streéts "of the world, laden, with dynamite and ready to blow up, without warning, Commenting that too many men are prone to view, the world today without facing the facts,' the speaker said "we in Canada, we live in a sheltered corner of the world and we are not in a position to realize the urgency of the situation. The war did not tome real close _to us, enemy bombs did not fall 6n our country, We have never wanted for any- thing, we have never been hun- gry. We are not in a position to judge. Stating that the second World War was won by ,the non-white people, Dr, Agnew went on to il- lustrate his point, "the whole complexion of the world is chan- ging. The war taught the non- white peoples that.this world has food for everybody. The non-. whites will never go on, as before. Drawing from a wealth of per- sonal knowledge and experiences, gained in his years of work with the Chinese people, in their own land, the speaker described the change of philosophy in China, which has taken place, since only 23 years ago, when the 'warlords' ruled vast areas, by ruthless might and power. Reviewing the early history. of the West's introduction to the words: as he related the unscru- pulous tactics adopted, by counw tries and peoples, seeking quick wealth, "The force that prevailed was not out of Christian ideals, it: was not an 'ethical force, it was merely the force of superior might," he declared, Tw Briefly reviewing the history of the East, down to more recent years when Japan decided to "try out" the League of Nationa and invaded Manchuria, without any opposition being offered by te League, the speaker went on to tell how Japan, planning for the major conquest of China, bought oil, scrap iron and other materials needed 'to conduct a war, from the people of the West. Regarded With Mixed Feelings ° "There is no wonder that today the people of the East look at us with mixed feelings. They leok at us with a great longing, desiring the best in our way of 'living bat remembering what the West has done to the people of the East, they also look at us with a deep distrust. With alt our Christian | background, our claims of trust, peace and good will on earth, there are still these other things which they do not forget. : "The 'Easterner as tome to lose respect for us, He is ready to work with us because we are $0 powerful, he looks to us for help, for we have so much of the things he wants but he doesn't respect us. . pia .

MacRae, Chief, Tobacco Division, Centra] Experi- mental Farm, Ottawa, = This new way of consuming tobacco was nat- urally taken to Spain, and from there . it made slow progress to neighbouring countries. But cigar ettes did not gain any real recogni. tion until after Crimean war in 1856. The soldiers took to using this new form, because it. was much eas- ier and less expensive to. "roll your own", They brought it back to their various countries where once again there was -opposition, . . particularly in Germany, but the opposition thig time was not. against the use of, tos bacco but lay in the competitive pops ular cigar, . ; Biphi In England, cigarettes th, fashion rapidly, ee he the use of better.grades of paper and: tobacco.
