THURSDAY, OCT. 1 lth, 1945 Facts on 'Beer By-Iwv Man moves in a mysterici way his blunders ta perform! many enquiries have corne ta tl __dWtor as ta just what took pIsc %Council over what is called th 1Beer By-law" that it is deeme advsable ta review the matter fI general information. The deve opments appear ta be as in th following sequence: At the September sessior Councillor Allison presented a rE quest from industrial worker through their unions that Coun cil approve a by-law for a genera vote on the question of establis] ing a beer and wine warehouse i Bowmanville. He read extract fromn provincial regulations clear ly setting forth the whole mat ter. By uanimous standing vob Cqucil approved the proposa] i~ylaw was drafted. 'tthe October session,z spoIkesman for the Ministeria Association and other groups op. posed the by-law and set forti details which were formerly dis. closed by Councillor Allison naxnely the two methods of pro. cedure, one by way of CouncilE initiative, which had already been unanin-ousîy taken; the other by way of petition. Council agai: voted, but this time 7-2 to kidi the by-Iaw. Councillors were told by the Ministerial spokesman they must have acted in ignorance and Éidn't know what they were do- ing. But the fact was they were told clearly in the first instance. Their general attentiveness anc abillty were thus brought into question, irrespective of those who seek to impute private motives in the final vote. In the representations made, it was clear ta observers that a vote could not be avoided, simply post- poned wîth the petitioners foread ta proceed by way of getting sig- natures of 25 per cent of the elec- torate. Forms have been prepar- ed for signatures of those whc wish a vote to be taken which are now being circulated. Under Council's original decis- ion a vote was planned ta coin- cide with municipal elections and the expense of separate polling avoided. The present Council has shown its willingness at ail times ta hear ,,ny ratepayer or any delegation, ut far too few show any interest Council meetings. It is now pointed out that had the oppon- ents shown proper concern for the town's affairs, at Ieast one could have been at the September meeting and raised objection. Sa far as The Statesqian is con- cerned it aiways has and always will be against intemperance. But it will, as it always has, up- hold the right of expression of .-,-idemocratic decisions Factions mannot b resolved without get- \ t iga clear decision in demo- ýà je fashion. The hope is that '~clMnil wili have better support in future than in the past. LOCAL SHEEF BREEDERS WIN AT WOODRIDGE FAIR The Ontario Championship Sheep Show takes place annually at Woodridge Fair, one of the noted exhibitions put on at small- er centres. The main show was postponed from Oct 8 to Oct. 20 on account of wet grounds. But the sheep show took place in the main building. Breeders from many points of Ontario brought 400 sheep in var- ious classes for competition in the championships. Among them were the following local breeders who won many prizes: Chevoits and Sufiolks, Ray Mc- Laughlin, Oshawa. Shropsnires, Harold Skinner, Tyrone. tots- wolds, T. C. Glaspeil, Taunton. Southdowns, Alf Ayre and Sons, Hampton and Eimcroft Farms, Oshawa. - - - PAGE NInR I k *~ AI ~ DIL Irom w, :Us Sa the ce hfe ied for el- ;he )n, 'e- ýrs in in ýts Ir- t- ite al. a ýai th S- t- ýs )y n ke ie ci 0 0 'T'HERE are new wings over the Dominion.

Between the new modern Queen of the Skyways and the "Sîiver Dart", Canada's firat experment in aviation, there is a vast difference ini speed, dag and structure. Thle new plane, pictured in fligla in the top riglt-band corner, has au overali length of 65 fet, a maximum height of 17 fet, and a wingspan of 95 feet. It will cruise at 180 miles perhour. Nearly 40yearsago, J.A. D. McCurdy of Montreal and Ottawa, making the first airpiane flight in Canada, flew his "Silver Dart' (ahown above) thirty Lëet into the air at 40 miles an hour. i The photo (upper left) shows the Hlon.

Ebbs told Rupert Graham, Bur- keton, who appeared before him ici Oshawa Police Court on Oct. 3 ta plead guilty ta charges of fail- ing ta remain at the scene of an accident and having a bottîs of liquor ici his car. "This should be a warning to you," His Worship cantinued. Accused's car was in collision with Fred Griffin, also of Burke- ton, on September 29, at the cor- ner of Mary and William Streets. After the accident Griffin told the court the car which hit his vehicle had disappeared. Later P. C. Thomas Shields saw the wanted car on Highway No. 2 near the Town Lins. A fine of $25 and costs was im- posed for leaving the accident and $10 and costs on the liquor caunt. "You had no driving license," His Worship said. "I will recommend that none be issued ta you for the period of a year.
