the acton free press acton ontario riluithdav jui y 30th ibm kading blwn ti un three nominated as candidates required to make deposit of 200 peace comes at last after what seemed an endless and fruitless amount of discussion the good news has come that the korean war has stopped and three years of struggle has ended peace reigns again on monday morning the combatants withdrew their armies to most of us it seems as if conflict wars and unsettled conditions have been the regular part of life for the past 16 years the second world war ended in 1945 and in 1953 the korean war start ed particularly to those who have loved ones in the korean conflict the news on monday morning was heartening to everyone who abhors the bloodshed and waste of men and materials the headline war stops today was oyous news here in canada the wars end did not bring the shouting and whistle blowing that the end of the conflicts saw in 1945 but in the hearts of every one there was praise and thankfulness that fight ing had ceased a truce had been made and a hope that men and nations may again turn to the peaceful pursuits of making the world a better place to live in rthymai perhaps its the heat but oumaildoesbring us more rare specimens these days last week we told you about receiving a booklet from the so ciety of gods it doesn t matter much what it was about because if we tried to explain tt you would become ust as confused as we were in the first few pages this week the prize package came all the way from bombay india it was from some professor so called who had gone into the mountains and received spiritual and magnetic powers he solicit ed inquiries and agreed to cure most everything from fits and diabetes business law affairs and solve even love problems and have everyone live happily together oh yes there were good luck charms and a special perfume that would get he or she a very cordial welcome in any society and loved by all a course in hypnotism was also available the catch of course came that all these good things to be given to mankind by the socalled professor were available for certain sums of money the more the power desired the more money the article cost it was at this point that we realized the heat wasn t responsible for the illusion we ve put trre literature safely away until after the election such things should never be set at large among the public someone is liable to spend money without any guarantee of refund the mail does bring some curious literature and perhaps the war time censorship from abroad should be made effective again not all in the finals as we go down the home stretch in the pre sent election we cannot help but feel that the selection of candidates or parties will not be en tirely decided on the oratory or platforms put forth in the campaign it s quite the usual thing in school or other standing to pass judgment on the term work as well as whet the student does in the final examinations we ve often wondered ust what effect the campaign speeches and other means used have on the actions of the electors when they go into the polling booth to mark a cross opposite the candidate of h s or her cho ce the ballot be ng secret of course no one w ii ever know ihe an swer but we bel eve that not as many votes are influenced n the final campa gning as one is somet mes led to bet eve there is such a mult tude oi platforms points and other terns put forth and often they are so contrad dory that n a few weeks the electors mj veil become con fused cond t ons under wh ch e f ave i ved for the past term of government are not forgotten as a rule when rhe elector registers his vote with all the means at the d sposal of canadian electors to keep m touch v rh the affairs of their government the issue s not all dec ded n the weeks allotted to the eiect on campa gn the wrong department there has been considerable discussion re oently and plans are being put forth fo have po lice cars equipped with radar to apprehend those who do not obey the speed limit to our mind the police are doing very wu even with their present equipment there is little use in bringing offenders to court until our courts are prepared to use com mon every day horse sense and quit quibbling about points of taw for several years we had the doubtful honor of serving as a justice of the peace in our newspaper work we have listened to many cases in court our experience has been that the courts are to blame for the lack of law enforcement a typical example was the recent case of a charge dismissed against a driver who was caught doing 90 miles an hour on one of our highways if any radar or other new fangled equipment is needed it should be brought into the court rooms the fault does not lie or the correction of the fault cannot be found in the department of highways the place to look is in the department of the attorney general for the province and we must admit we don t even know who holds that office at the present time that multitude of tourists and citizens who are law abiding anddeserve protecrrorrfrofrtthe few who break laws it is time a different view was taken in our courts when culprits are

of the ontario liquor control board to the ontario legislature make rather grim reading from the standpoint of actually control ling the sale of liquor and beer it revealed that ontario c tizens spent a total of 228 008 216 on liquor wine and beer during the year ending march 31 1952 this was an increase of 17 534 401 or 8 3 per cent over the previous year on the basis of a family of four persons it is calculated that the average ontario family spent 190 during the year on beer wine and liquor drink ng slightly over 67 gallons of the three beverages taxes alone would amount to 93 per family
