FLETCHER Correspondent Harmony, Dec. 3--Very. festive in- deed was the auditorium of Harm- School on Wed. evening, for the annual Christmas banquet of the Willing Workers. Four long tables, very attractive in their traditional Christmas col- ors presented a picture of warmth and cheer. Large bowls of gleaming red apples, flanked on either side by red candles, were the chief dec- orative notes and small bowls fill- ed with chrysanthemums lent add- ed color. Table room was at a préemium and extra tables had to be quickly pressed into service to ac< commodate the large crowd of six- ty-five who sat down and enjoyed the delicious supper of roast tur- key with the trimming, including hot mince pie and ice cream. Occupying a very prominent place on the platform, 'and overlooking the head table at which were seat- ed the executive and honored guests was the Christmas tree, resplend- ent in its gay trimmings and .color- ed lights dripping icicles and. gaily wrapped gfts. Foliowing the welcoming by the president, the blessing was offered by Mrs. R. J. Luke, Carol sing- ing under the leadership of Mrs. Mike Krashul, with Mrs. Len Mar- tin at the piano, was much enjoyed. One of the highlights of' the ev- enings proceeding was the presen- tation of Life Memberships to Mrs. O. C. Lander, and Mrs. J. Green- tree, in recognition of their years of servcie to the organization. Mrs. Lander was one of the first presid- ents of the society and had helped made to the way Mrs. Greentree had helped with quilting activities, in getting it formed. Reference was especially during the war years, when quilting was on regular week- ly job. On behalf of the Willing Workers, these ladies were present- ed with silver trophies set with mar- quisites. A few items of routine business were taken care of and a financial statement covering proceeds of baz- aar given by Mrs. James Hare, the treasurer. The sum of $250.00 had been taken in and more was yet to be collected. . It was unanimously decided to transfer sponsorship of the Twelfth Harmony cubs to the Harmony Re- creation Group, who -had previous- ly intimated their desire in this .| connection, Yearly dues for 1949 were paid and Blue Cross registration cards handed out by group leader, Mrs. Krashul. . Mrs., M, Lambe conducted the short woorship service, which open- ed with "Silent Night," and was followed by the Christmas Story ac- cording to St. Luke's Gospel, and read by Mrs. Harry Faint, The program consisted of humorous readings by Mrs. Hare and a talk by Mrs. Pilkey on a recent trip to Florida. Highlight of the program was, however,' the reading of "verses" describing each persons' 'capsule' sister. Each year this part of the proceeding grows more po- pular, and the efforts of putting into verse a description of one's sister calls for amusement, Gifts were distributed by Mrs. W. Ridgely and her committee, and thanks and good wishes were exchanged. The slate of-officers for 1949 as presented by Mrs. W. A. Fleming is as follows: _ President, Mrs. K. R. Fletcher; Vice President, Mrs. Howard Hosk- kin; Secretary, Mrs. Charles' King; Treasurer, Mrs. Stewart Mackie. Yearly reports will be given at the annual meeting on January 5, at which time Mrs. F. J. Rundle will install the officers. Thanks were extended to all who | helped to make: the bazaar a suc- cess; to those who.donated, or help- ed in any way and to those sup- plying cars. - Sympathy: of the community is Midget Films Set Spy Hunt Going Again City & Dist. | News ..

By enlarging the films, the com- mittee has built hundreds of documents three or four feet high. Stripling would have mau it easy to break an American code. Chambers testified at the com- mittee's spy hearings last summer that he was in the 'underground for several years before with the Reds in 1938. He didn't' volunteer any mation about the microfilms, and there was no explanation of his failure to produce them. Re-Stock Creeks With Brown Trout Brown trout have been planted in suitable streams in Durham and Ontario counties during the past 10 days, A. B. Wheatley, district fores- ter, has announced. Usually these fish are planted in the spring or early summer, fall plantings are also considered satisfactory, Mr. Wheatley said. A contributing factor, also, was the surplus of brown trout at the Cod- rington hatchery. It is expected that about 60,000 speckled trout: and 75,000 brown trout will be distributed from the Codrington hatchery in 1949, The following streams were re- stocked: Wilmot Creek, Bowman- ville Creek and Soper Creek in Dur- ham County; Oshawa Creek in Ontario County.

The resolution is expected to come up for General Assembly balloting next week, probably Tuesday. Some delegates attributed the closeness of the Political committee vote to a last-minute Canadian amendment which provided for a sub-committee of the big five pow- ers to select the conciliation com- mission. The big five committee would work under the assembly rules without a veto, and could name the three conciliation com- mission countries by a simple ma- jority vote. Russia opposed this method, de- claring the conciliation commission members should be named by the 11-member Security Council. Rus- sia has used the big power veto 28 times in the council. Informed sources said the major- ity group, headed by the United States and Britain, may drop the Canadian amendment. These sources say the United States now may favor a secret bal- lot in the assembly to elect the commission. The action was taken in the Poli- tical Committee by a vote .of 24 to 21, 'with eight abstentions. Canada proposed that the big five name the commission. The Canadian amendment was tucked into a watered-down Bri- tish resolution for settling the Pal- estine dispute. The resolution still has to be voted on as a whole. It | has been approved paragraph by | paragraph. The Political Committee decided last night to set up the conciliation commission. It refused however, to W.A. Meeting At Prince Albert F. E.

SEE AND HEAR ThEM AT "Look for the Store BIDDULPH With the Yellow Front" PHONE 3800-W = 8 WN manner. got To The Electors of Oshawa! In the municipal elections on Monday I am offering my services for next term, as Alderman. During the past three years I have served the city in the capacity of Mayor and I have, at all times, tried to deal with civic business in a conscientious manner, thinking only of what is best for all taxpayers. Naturally, there have been many contentious problems and I have not always chosen the easy road which, had I done, would have meant, in some instances, higher taxation. I"think that it is only fair to state that throughout my municipal career I have enjoyed the co-operation of Labor generally, in Oshawa, and have formed many warm friendships among my fellow Labor citizens. I would like to emphatically state that there are no differences whatever between my theories of citizenship in Oshawa and those held by the representatives We are all interested in what is best for everyone. I noticed, for instance, in last night's issue of The Times-Gazette, a letter signed by W. L. Grant, Local 222 UAWA-CIO. I have the highest respect for Mr. Grant and am sorry that he has mis- construed my remarks in connection with the Hydro power shortage question. There never has been and there never is now, any thought in my mind that Labor was not willing to co-oper- ate in the emergency. Any differences that existed were between M. J. Fenwick and myself. Mr. Fenwick is a salesman and has perhaps less reason to speak on behalf of Labor than most of us who are working hand in hand with Labor every day. Conse- quently, what Mr. Fenwick thinks, or. does not think, about the co-operation between Labor and management is of little concern. In appealing to the electorate for their support at the polls on Monday to my candidature I submit that Oshawa needs counsel and men at the head of affairs who are not committed to any organized group, whether it be Industry, Labor, Lodge, Church, etc. The council that is elected must be, if it is to func- tion properly, capable of making decisions that will be in the ultimate interests of all the citizens, regardless. My record in municipal service, for example, will prove that I have conscien- tiously and fearlessly faced every problem on its merits, always mindful of the fact that there are two sides to every question, but I have insisted that the decision should be made in favor of the majority of all the people, at all times, and if elected on Monday it is my thought and purpose to so view the problems which will confront next year's council in exactly the same vote and Elect M:CALLUM As Alderman on Monday X
