TUESDAY, AUGUST 31, 1948 er ES SU A RES ES THE DAILY TIMES-GAZETTE PAGE THREH Fear Bogus Bills Being Used In Currency Postmaster Asks Aid of Citizens To Improve Service A plea for the erection of street signs and the number- ing of all houses as a means of improving the service given by the Oshawa Post Office was made By Postmaster Norman J. Moran in a classification address delivered at the luncheon meeting of the Oshawa Rotary Club yesterday. Pointing out that the drivers for ® mail order houses often appeal to the Post Office for assistance in finding streets, Rotarian Moran said that «he could show the mem- bers of the club sections of the city and Westmount where the houses are not systematically numbered and where it is possible to find odd and even numbers on the same side of the street. The difficulty of de- livering mail is accentuated also by the fact that the turnover in staff is large and many new men who have not been residents of the rap- idly growing community are now employed. Mr. Moran said that there are some 2400 persons receiving mail here through general delivery. This is too large a number and does not tend to good service. The need for a letter slot in every home was also emphagjzed as a means of protect- ing the mail and ensuring its re- ception ir good condition. Carrier's Job Not Easy Some idea of the magnitude of , the job done by the city's letter carriers was given when it was stated that a carrier makes an av- erage of 374.9 calls per trip and car- ried an average of 1,024 items of mail per trip. The carrier walks Places Fourth DAVID POWLESS Every Church Member Must Be Active "The work of sounding the Gos- until 'he membership becomes more active." This, thi ugh provok- ing observation was made by.Pas- tor W. A. Butler, secretary of the General Conference Home Mission= ary Department, in an address de- livered at the Ministerial Conven= tion now in session at the Oshawa Missionary College. Pointedly, the speaker emphasiz= ed that the second coming of Christ awaits the accomplishment of the task assigned to ajl profes= sed followers of the Lord by the Master Himself. Continued Mr. Butler: "It is God's plan that every missionary in his respective sphere. Because of disobedience on the part of ancient Israel, the Israelites were compelled to wander about i.* the Sinai wilderness during a per- iod of 40 years. Similarly, if modern Israel fails to fulfill God's plan, it will be kept in this world of con- fusion and sorrow longer than ne- cessary. "The delay of the Saviour's re- turn (one of the clearest and most emphasized doctrines of the Bible) is occasioned by the lethargy of the church, We may hasten this event by taking a more active part in the proclamation of the Gospel.

It also is the first day of a week-long Golden Jubilee Celebra- tion, at the end of which she will abdicate and turn the duties of state over to her daughter, Prin- cess Juliana. Queen Wilhelmina came to Am- sterdam Monday from her country estate at Apeldoorn. Hundreds of thousands of her subjects thronged the streets to pay her homage. She paused briefly at The Hague on the way to resume the duties of the throne whic been exer- cised by Juliana ess Re- gent. Today's program calls for her to ride through the streets in state in an open carriage. A Jubilee Pag- eant will be held at the 1928 Olym- pic Stadium, climaxed by a fire- works display. Amsterdam turned on the Jubilee spirit Monday night. Colored lights blazed up all over the city and a carnival atmosphere took hold. Enough visitors are expected to double the city's normal population of 800,000. For the small business man the jubilee is a windfall. For the tax- payer, it means more expense. Every shopkeeper donated a mini- mum of $20 and a maximum of $40 for decorations and some larger establishments donated what are called "fabulous" sums for prepara- tions to boost the spirit of gaiety. Nevertheless, the feeling of gaiety is tempered by the realization that this week marks the end of the reign of Wilhelmina, who is deep- ly respected in this land. She will s Pi : Black Market Man, Woman Held | By Toronto Police | As Note Passers Ontario Spotlight ASSAULT CHARGED Toronto, Aug. 31--(CP)--Frank Currie, 36, was held today on a charge of assault after Constable William McKeown suffered a pos- sible fractured jaw and other in- juries Monday night.

SEVEN-TOED KITTEN Toronto, Aug. 31--(CP) -- The Canadian National Exhibition might have had to present a special class yin the cat show; one for seven-toed kittens. Young Gladys Tillman of Ottawa, who owns Peep Peep, the animal in question, wrote officials asking to enter the kitten. But the entry was too late nad Peep Peep will get no blue ribbon. nd Toronto, Aug. 31 (CP)-- Possibility of a tie-up between counterfeiters and a "black market" in United States cur- rency in Canada was seen by banking authorities Monday night after a man and woman had becn arrested on charges of passing counterfeit U.S. nctes at the Canadian Nation= al Exhibition. Leo Gauthier, 42, and Mary Boyce, 37, bpth of Toronto, in court Monday were remanded to Sept. T ion charges of possessing forged American banknotes. Police asserted that Gauthier was the "front man" for an organized gang of counter= feiters who obtain engraving plates from Kingston. One Toronto banking official told police: "We know a black market in currency exists, particularly in Windsor and other border points. This is not new. We catch 30 to 40 people a month at this game, some of them big operators but most of them petty chislers." It was suggested that the coun= terfeit ring hoped to cash in by selling spurious U. S. currency to Canadians anxious to take more American currency with them on trips south of the border than. the Canadian exchange laws allow.

However, lack of proper addressing had occurred in over 18,- 000 instances and in many cases only the name of the addressee and the city were given. Briefly outlining the history of postal service in Canada, Mr. Mor- an said in 1706 the first postal car- rier started work between Quebec and Montreal. In those days it took four days to make the trip as com- pared with an hour and five min- utes by air today. In those days postal service was controlled by the British Postmaster General and it was not until 1851 that it was turn- ed over to the provinces and not until 1867 thgt the Canada Post Office was established.

The least important of these has to do with the providing of information about government anhuities, the sale of unemployment insurance stamps, the sale of radio licenses, the sup- plying of income tax forms, etc. Next in importance is the finan- cial side of the service which has "to do with the sale of money orders and postal notes and the operation of a savings bank. Then there is the. operating side. This includes the handling of - four classifications of mail. .

Harris, Believe United Nations Not God's Instrument Bring Warless World The Christian church can place no reliance upon the United Na- tions as an agency of~world peace, Seventh-day Adventist ministers were told, in the closing meeting of their five-day convention at Oshawa Missionary Colleze. The United Nations, conceived with the best of motives is, they believe, bound to fail in its efforts to bring about a warless world. Carlyle B. Haynes of Washing- ton, one of the chief speakers at the conventien, emphasie:d the thought that the United Nations, noble as its aspirations are, and lofty as its purpose, is not an in- strument which God has brought into existence, nor is it one which He can use in the accomplish- ment of His purposes. Beyond Human Orgarizations "While we sympathize," said Mr. Haynes, "with the noble and lofty idealism which brought the United Nations into existence, our under- standing of the Bible leads us to realize that its lofty pur- poses will never be achieved. World peace is not within the reach of human organizations. "Nor is the idea of One World an idea that is in harmony with God's purpese. He does not want one world. He does not want the na- ticns brought together. He took action long centuries ago to sep- erate them. The account is con- tained in His word. . "Men once before tried to bring about a United Nations in the building of the Tower of- Babel. They attempted to erect a struc- ture that would reach to heaven. God came down and confused their language, separated them into va- rious nations and drove them apart, He has not wanted them to- gether since then. As a matter of fact it has been His purpose to keep them apart. "This purpose of God is not at all because he hates any nation, or has any favorites amonz the nations. There is no superior. na- tion or race. God merely saw that while man remained in a state of sin, it is better for the nations to remain separate. Consequently the whole idea of united nations is contrary to the essential design of God for the naticns, Follow Bible Teaching "The teaching of the Bible leads us to understand that efforts such as those of the United Nations, will be made at this period of his- tory. It is all set before us in the prophecy given by Paul in I. Thessalonians 5:3 'For when * they shall say, Peace and safety, - then sudden destruction cometh upon them, as travaileth upon a woman with child; they shall not escape.' "There is the prophecy of the United Nations, and there is set forth the inevitability of its futil- ity and complete failure. This world will never be a warless world until the Son of God Who is the Prince of peace, shall return and take over the rule of all things." Feature British Machines Thrill of Pride Over C.N.E. Win Is Shortlived MRS. KENNETH FLETCHER Correspondent Harmony, Aug. 31--A thrill of pride, even though short-lived, was experienced by Mrs. Gordon Bun- ker last Friday afiernoon, who, on going through the Women's Build- ing at the Exhibition, noticed the red ribbon, signifying 1st prize, on the Willing Workers' Quilt which had been entered in the "Life in Canada" Quilt contest. Closer examination revealed the fact that it was our quilt sure enough, but it had the name of a Kintail Women's Institute Group on it. Mrs. Bunker notified the authorities of the mistake, and after lengthy questioning and identifying of quilt, saw, to her disappointment, the honor trans- ferred to the rightful winner. At least we can say our quilt had the place of honor for a day, any- way. And we'd like to congratulate the real wingers, even tHo' we are disappointed. Please remember the first fall meeting of the Willing Workers will be held at the school on Wead- nesday evening, September 8th. Mrs. W. Trainer and her committee are arranging the program, and the support and help of the ladies in this community is needed to carry on a program which will be of benefit to all.

Wallace, tis campaign trail through the southern states splashed with raw eggs and ripe to- matoes, appeared headed today to- ward more segregation troubles. "We shall go on," Wallace said through a staff member who re- ported the Progressive Party's pre- sidential nominee's determination to continue Gis tour of the south where he is protesting segregation of Ne- groes.

South. Progressive steps in postal service included the insuring of parcels in 1921; C.O.D. delivery in 1922; air mail in 1927 and the all-up service this year. With regard to the latter service it was pointed out that no guarantee is given that all letters of one ounce and less with first class postage affixed will go by air as the Post Office buys space from the air lines and all available space may be taken. Rather than delay first class mail, it is forwarded by train in such cases. Instances of additional services given included the supplying free of charge of books showing the number of persons in rural and ur- ban centres. In a dition it is pos- sible to buy from the Post Office lists of names of pesons living on rural routes in electoral districts. This service is valuable to those who wish to circularize these peo- ple. Business reply cards and enve- lopes can also be secured with the sender required to pay the postage on only those returned. Postmaster Moran, who has a re- cord of 34 years service with the Canada Post Office, was introduced to the club by Rotarian Douglas M. Storie. The thanks of the meeting was voiced by Rotarian T. L.

Automotive Day Toronto, Aug. 31 -- (CP) -- The first all-British motorcar show in North America, sharing honors with Canadian cars, today was a feature of Automotive Day at the Canadian National Exhibition. The great fair, recovering from the eager onslaught of youthful thousands on Children's Day Mon- day, turned to automobile compan- ies, their products and problems, Monday, when thousands travel- led from many points in Ontario and elsewhere to join milling throngs of Toronto children, more than 2,700 children turned up "lost." Most frequent remark heard from anxious grown-ups at the Lost Children's Centre was "I just turned around a moment and he was gone." The cooler weather brought out greater crowds. The Children's Day attendance was 203,500, compared with 167,000 on the same day last year. This made the total for three days this year 565,500 against 542,- 500 last year. British car dealers reported keen demand for . their ' products. Many of the British machines, in the $1,500 class, are of similar size and appearance to the Canadian models of 1948. But exhibitors told also of many inquiries for the British mid- get type. The complicated judging classes for dairy * products, grains, vege- tables and honey began Monday and continue for somé time. Children's day was accompanied by the CN.E, Amateur Diving and Swimming Championships. Toronto youngsters took most . awards, al- though Hamilton boys ond girls chalked up 13 second-places among the 34 events. built up from traditions and ways Three swimmers from the Min- neapolis Y.M.C.A. combined to win major awards. John Hancock won the 40-yard and 120-yard free style for boys 13 and under. Bruce Aune captured the 40-yard breast stroke and 120-yard medley for 15 and under, and Bob Squiers took the 14 and under breast stroke. . Premier Drew of Ontario, speak- ing as Minister of Education at the Directors' luncheon, outlined an educational program to eliminate racial and religious intolerance as one of the most important means of assuring Canada's future. Stress- ing the value of the heritage brought by the thousands of for- eign-born newcomers to the Do- minion, he said "there is one word that I would like to see removed from our language, and that is the word 'foreigner.' " The Premier noted that the Bri- tish people themselves were made up \of divergent racial strains and that"Canada's civilization had been of life which owed much to Brit- ain, France, Italy and other na- tions. "It is essential that we give our youth an understanding of their part in the great comity of nations today," said the ' Premier. Hard work and the happiness resulting from doing a job well also were essential ingredients in the train- ing of youth. Otherwise, the cultural inherit- ance would be lost to future gen- erations, The history of the past showed that stagnation .and a downward trend in a nation began when people refused to work and fight for the comfort they had won. "Mr. and Mrs. Murray Greentree and Wayne, and Mrs. Wm. Green- tree, have left for their homes in Saskatchewan after visiting with their many relatives here. Mrs. C. E.
