BOWMANVILLE REPRESENTATIVE--HENRY HOLFORD -- AND DISTRICT PHONE 881 Urges Understanding @f Farmers' Problems . BOWMANVILLE -- An under- stinding of the problems of the famer was urged last night by public relations officer and re of Ontario Agricultural Col- ere at Guelph, Rev. W. A. Young, wio addressed a joint meeting of Lins, Rotarians, and Kinsmen at Community Centre. The r said it was to the advan- tae of everyone to keep the farm- eri in business, and everybody cold do his part to keep them in buiness by understanding the famers. Stressing the importance of agriculture, Rev. Young said Candians have enough to eat -- eve a surplus -- while one-third of tugworid's population is under- 2 OF THE WORLD ON US '""he hungry eyes of the world arejpon us," he warned. "They're notfar away, either; only a few hous' flying time by jet. That isn' very safe." Pointing out that the wo most important things in the world were land and people, the speaker said China was an exaiple of too many people in too little land. He sald the North American 'estimate of land requir- ed to support one person was two acres, while in China the amount of land per person was about 1- 46 acre, and in Canada the land per capita averaged 5.4 acres. While we had a surplus of food and were wondering what to do with it, perhaps the day would come when the surplus would be completely and effectively trans- ported to the undernourished na- tions, said the speaker. Rev. Mr. Young said the popu- lation of Ontario had increased by 30 per cent in ten years, while the Ontario rural population had decreased by 10 per cent. Still the farmers had taken advantage of new methods and machines to increase farm output 20 per cent, he added. "The farmers will stay in business as long as they are making money," said the OAC rep- resentative. Advising rural and urban populations to stick together, Mr. Young asserted. '"We're going to win or we're going to lose to- gether."

Law enforcement officers have remarked on a flurry of air rifle and air pistol activity in recent spring weather. Corporal Throop, provincial police detachment, and Chief Sidney Venton, municipal po- lice, emphasized that children should not have dangerous wea- for "cowboys and Indians' ac- tivities. They said parents will be summoned to court if suspected of supplying airguns to children. Both officers suggested it was equally important to prevent chil- dren from obtaining BB shot, say- ing, "without ammunition, you can't shoot", | Empire Parley Ties Sterling For Bridge i Hl By ALAN HARVEY Gnadian Press Staff Writes IANDON (CP)--The recent con- ferace of Commonwealth - istes has just had an impact in Lonlon. The British treasury has refised to release funds for a brige in New Zealand. Tie link between the two events - the Commonwealth economic corerence and the New Zealand brilge -- is simply that the Com- moiwealth ministers decided that futire investment should be re- latd where possible to projects _ tha have something do with . eaning or saving dollars. Vith this in mind, Treasury Chief * R.A. Butler regretfully informed the New Zealand government that thaigh the bridge might be a good thitg to have, Britain could not affird to finance it in the present "'ctgested state" of the London cajjtal market. 'The bridge, scheduled for com- Jision in four years, was to have ed the: city of Auckland with the borough of Northcote. It would haw meant an "enriching" of the Nev Zealand scene, a treasury spkesman said, but it appeared to lave little to do with the balance of )ayments.

Last year a record 9,000 Ameri- can immigrants came to Canada, Mr. Harris said, but 27,000 Cana- dians look up residence across the border. Mr. Harris said 58 per cent of the immigrants settled in Ontario.

The wrong kind of development, he said, wag the "milk-bar" type, where fun ere released for such amenities as milk bars and cine- mas. The decision in the Auckland case marks the first public refusal of finance since the Commonwealth ministers met here in December. The relevant clause of the com- munique issued 'after the confer- ence was that "development should be concentrated on projects which directly or indirectly contribute to the improvement of the (sterling) areas balance of payments with the rest of the world." Now Butler has shown that Brit- ain means business. This translation into bread and- butter terms of the general state- ments and abstractions usually is- sued after Commonwealth confer- ences has been welcomed by the British press as injecting an air of welcome realism into the supply 'ted in of Commonwealth capital. United Faith | Greatest Need In All World WINDSOR, Ont. (CP)--Rev. W. J. Gallagher of Toronto, general sec- retary of the Canadian Council of Churches, said Monday the greatest present need of the world is a com- mon faith, Addressing a local service club, he said the world today seems to be based on three paradoxes. The paradoxes are the political, i which the world is one and yet divided at the same time; the economic, wherein plenty and want co-exist; and the spiritual, in which man's values seem based on the material while he yearns for a uth only the spiritual can pro- vide. Dr. Gallagher said the world is governed by three facts: the world is in revolution; millions of people are suffering and the world has no common faith. "The deepest need of the world today lies just there--the need for a common faith." Such faith would solve the prob- lems of the other two facts which stem from the existence of the three paradoxes. The spiritual paradox was exhibi- ted in the fact "we pay our pugi- lists more than our teachers and we pay more for drink than for education." " Marxism and communism attrac- ted great followings not because of material attractiveness but be- cause they offered a cause, even though it was based on false promises. Union Plans Canada-wide Strike Move TORONTO (CP)--A national cam- paign aimed at forcing Swift Cana- dian Company to bargain with the union for a settlement of the poul- try plant and hatchery strike at Stratford will be undertaken by the United Packinghouse Workers of America (CIO - CCL), Sam Hughes, assistant Canadian direc- tor, said Monday night. Eamon Park, 8 member of the conciliation board which heard the 15-month dispute, accused the com- pany of treating the board with contempt. Mr. Park told the Toronto Labor Council (CIO-CCL) that Swifts have shown 'contempt for the concilia- tion process, for the Canadian la- bor laws, and for thé Canadian people." He said Swift's is a Uni- ted States-owned corporation. Mr. Hughes, who told of plans for a national petition to be direc- ted at Swift's management in Can- ada, said Eric Taylor, chairman of the board that heard the dispute, had authorized the statement that he had never had so frustrating an experience as attempting to conciliate with Swift's. None of the company represen- tatives appearing before the board were prepared or authorized to bar- gain, Mr. Hughes and Mr. Park told the labor council.

CARLING APPOINTMENT T. E. ARKELL C. O. Dalton, President, The Carl- ing Breweries Limited, announces the appointment of T. E. Arkell to the position cf Vice President (8ales) and a Director of the Company. Mr. Arkell was former- ly Sales Manager. $1,000,000 Italy Embassy Under Fire OTTAWA (CP)--The usually-im- mune external affairs department got caught Monday in the crossfire of running political strife arising from opposition charges that the government is using the public's tax money extravagantly. The issue of the moment: An esti- mate by the department that it will cost about $1,000,000 to erect and furnish an embassy residence and office building in Rome. In the Commons external affairs committee, Howard Green (PC-- Vancouver QuaJdva) said it is "ri- diculous" and "extravagant'" to spend that much money for that purpose. He and Gordon Graydon (PC--Peel) asked the Separyneny to reconsider and try save money. Tom Goode (L--Burnaby-Rich-- mond) retorted that Canada did $150,000,000 worth of business with Italy in the last two years and figured the cost of the buildings would run to roughly $45,000 to $50,000 a year over 20 years. The alternative was to keep on paying $22,000 a year rent, He called it 'good business." R. M. Macdonnell, assistant un- dersecretary of the department, moved cautiously through the con- troversy but he did say the de- partment feels that in the long run the Rome investment would prove a good one. Once Canada had her own property, she would escape taxation under diplomatic privile- ges.

She wanted to tell the whole story about Tucky's trav- els. Sickeningly truthful the angel- ic face told the truth. Tucky hop- ped a train to Sprinfield and couldn't get off. Helen then, with the air of a debutante, sought. to impress the aunt and Jeff with exaggerated stories of her bank account and personal freedom at home, attemp- ting to belittle Tucky, who arriv- ed on the scene again. Cries of "Ho, Ho, you can't touch me," provoked Tucky's ire and he wanted none of that non- sense. But the aunt quiely re- strained his overflowing emotions, although she was called "aunt stinky" more than once. DEFINITE PERSONALITY She explained to Jeff that only babies obey parents blindly. Older children have a definite personality that should be recognized. There- fore, rather than ordering the child to do someting, unaessianaing the young person's problems is of utmost. importance, as children want to explore. Aunt May reminded Jeff of his childhood, which had collected a lie misbehavior dust occasional- y. Then Mrs. Gridley appeared. While verbally bombarding the Simmons family. Mrs. Gridley (played by Joanne Stout) quieted her daughter within seconds. She gave an obvious impression that her daughter, althougu avout 10 years of age, was quite capable of solving her own problems. On one occasion, she said, not a word was spoken between them for two weeks. Most of Mrs. Gridley's time was taken up in social work. Aunt May also gave her ideas concerning Helen. Although the little rich girl appeared to be "spoiled,"" she was in reality, loos- ing her restrained thoughts and emotions publicly, said the aunt. Jeff, finally realizing that he had been too harsh.with the boy (he decided to strap the boy after hear- ing little Helen's philosophy on life) told Tucky 21] wos $a ~4 wr forgiven, and suggested they go and fix the radio together. 1ne play ended with father and son walking hand-in-hand towards a day of companionship. Mrs. O. D. Friend then announc- ed the names of members of the panel, which assembled on the Un- ion Hall stage. Mr. Mason was asked by Mr. Boys to give his opinion concern- ing Jeff's actions. Although Jeff was an exaggerat- ed example, he said, many fathers today think it is their sole job to "bring home the bacon." They a not make pals for their sons, as they think it is the mothers' joo. Boys do not, as a rule, follow their mothers' ambitions to the fullest, Mr. Mason sajd, as += leaders in sport or other exciting activities. SEEK SUPERMAN Mr. Mellow was of the opinion that the behavior pattern of boys is apt to be frustrated because they find it difficult to follow true psychological principles. They want a "superman'" to look up to. Very often, he stated, it is adult delinquency that frustrates a child. although, in certain cases slight modifications enter. Dr. Dwyer stressed the point that emotional disturbances arise because of improper training and environment. "People do the wrong thing with the right intention," he said. Mrs. Marritt pointed out that it is important for a boy to stick to a group of boys his own age, or he might be called a "sissy". In many cases, the boy makes an older boy a 'superman' in his mind, thus erasing parental in- fluence to a great extent. Mr. Boys asked Magistrate Ebbs what he thought about the little girl, Helen, in the play. Explaining that she was 'the real bouncing type'. who needled the boy at every opportunity, he explained that it was unnatural for her to do those things. It was ob- vious that she needed an outlet for her emotjons, because she was subdued by her overpowering moth- er, Mr. Murphy said that it would be the wrong time to give the boy a beating at that stage of the operation, to bring out any logical purpose. The boy, he said, had no previous warnings against his irunning away and would probably rebel, if given a paddling. There are times, he said, when certain little ""pills" need corporal punishment, but not until they understand why the action is be- ing taken, CORPORAL PUNISHMENT The discussion led to freer com- ment after each panel member pre- sented his views. Corporal punish- ment, its extent and purposes, were discussed, without any definite rule to follow being decided upon. Love through understanding and a recognition of God within t he home was decied unanimously to be primary factors in successful family life. Questions from the audience were dealt with. They mainly con- cerned the husband's or wife's standing with the boy and exces- | sive use of profanity in the home, | The panel accepted the fact that loose language within the home should be scrapped. Individuality should be brought out in young children -- not to excess -- and a mutual under- standing and recognition of char- acter between father and son, is vitally important, they concluded. | In summing up, Mr. Boys ac- knowledged the fact that boys near | the age of 10 have many problems | to face. They are not quite as de-. pendent on parents at that stage, and parents should try to promote their boys' friendship with other boys of the same age. like to fashion themselves after | DANGER OF REBELLION Although their imagination might | § PROVIDE all JYP [aml CIRCULAR AIRSHADE AWNINGS tection for your porches, doorways and steps.
