THE CANADIAN STATESMAN. BOWMANVILLE, ONTARIO THURSDAY, NOV. l5th, 1945 AN EstaMlished 1854 AINDEPENDENT NEWSPAPEB With which is Incorporated The Bowmanville News, The Newcastle Independent, ana The Orono News. 91 Year's Continuons Service Ta The Town of Bowmanvlfte and Durham Vount7. Member Audit Bureau of Circulations Canadian N ~Weekiy Newapaper SBCRITIOtRATES $2.0 aTea lntheUnited State. GEO.W. JMES.Editor. With No Board of Trade Bowmanville Stands Isolated There is always a great degree of diff i- dence and even of humiliation when a local paper fecis impelled to eall attention to local municipal shorfcomings. But in hew- in- to fhec une in an endeavour to arouse people to take action designcd to keep in step with the turnes and parficularlY to kecp in sfcp wif h surrounding mnincipali- ties, The Stafesman offers no apologies. As a cornmunity, and we consider ourselves an enliglifencd comniunity, it can be said flatly fliat we do nof measure np in several partic- ulars, nofably in vicw of the inferest s of men rcturming from active service. It is time we correcfed our omissions. At the mo- ment we mention only two and deal specifie- aily with only one. Wc -mnst have a new library building. We mnst have a Board of Trade. We shall talk abont the library in a series of later editorials. At the moment we point ont thaf Bowmanville stands isolated among al adjacent towns in hlaving no Board of Trade or Cliamber of Commerce. Look at the picture. Clear flirongli from Whifby to Trenîton there are active Boards of Trade, and fliey are getfing things donc. Latest f0 gef int o the picture is Whitby. Like fthc others ifs Board of Trade has ffled ifs indus- trial potentialities f0 be forwardecl to On- tario House, London, f0 be ini position to affract industries in the posfwar period. Meaîîwhile, Bowmanvillc, alone, sifs supine. *Well f0 say flic least it is an invidions dis- tinction. Let us mosf clcarly assess flic picture. WeT know that several men, rcturncd froin service, have lately gone info private busi- ness in fuiis town. We had no Board of Trade f0 hieip tlim. If is known that some werc denied governiment assistance and lîad to rely upon their own resources. A Board of Trade could have helped fliem immneasur- ably, but wc let thcmn down. WNe know ive haven'f made a single move f0 affracf indus- tries f0 enlarge onr local buying, power and sustaili tlise returned men. lni short we arc eollecfively, simply an aggrcgafion of buînp- kins, prating mucli and doing nothing. If is time we came alive and calleti a meeting f0 esfablish flic foremost necd of flic com- munit.), a live Board of Trade. Bank Managers Can HeIp Ail Returned Personnel One of flic most encouraging fhings we have seen in recent months is flic advice pnblicly fcndered by Stanley M. Wedd, President of flie Canadiani Bankers' Associ- at ion. In flic past, inany people have feif diffident about consulfing, their local bank manager ini regard f0 personal problems of money, whefher f0 finance a home, a business or of a nafure to improve their gencral prosperify. Ini fuis issue of The Sfatesman appears exfracts from Mr. Wedd's recent address under fhlileading '"Fnture Bright for Canada." If is worfh reading for flic reasons stafed above, for if invites consul- tations wifh brandi managers of the char- fered banks of Canada. 0f parficular inferest is flic suggestion that refurned men eau very profitably con- suif wifh their local banker. Just as they would without hesitafion consuif f heir lo- cal docfor, they eau lic assured equal wel- corne and sound advice from flîir home town banker. Mr. Wedd points ontt flaf flic back-log of Canadian savings is now greater than ever hefore andi of fuis g-reaf sum, refurncd mcei ow'î a considerable shiare.

These orders are filled by flic Photogra- phie Service and sent ail over flic Unitedi States and Canada and a Raiph H. Carruthers few abroati. Thc Division also ineludes flic microfilm reatiing raemn wheme whele bocks andi ether material whidli las been preserved on microfilm may be ead through tfli easily operateti pmoj ecters, or reading machines; and a laborafary wliere Mr. Car- uthers lias already donc a con- siderable amount cf research on photographie problems, anti cx- peefs te de more experimental work in mierepîofography and in the new techniques cf ticeumen- fary pliofagraphy in general.

Carruthers lias made lis part icular spliere and lis adhievements in fIat spîere, can- nof fail to e oe f inferest f0 flic re- sident s ef Bcwmanviile where le grew up and received lis early educafion. Affer graduating from Quecn's University with an honcur degree in Arts in 1926, Mr. Carruflers teck a posfgraduafc course af Col- umbia University Scîcol, of Lib- rary Service in New York, anti received lis B.S. degree in lib- ary work in 1927. He joinedth fe staff cf tIc New York Public Lib- rary anti serveti for ncarly a year in flic Science anti Tecînology Division. In flic spring of 1928, le was placeti in charge of fIe rapidly expanding Photostat Sec- tien, remaîning in this position fcr four years. The years 1932 te 1936 were spent in flic Central Information Division, while also serving in an advisery capacity in aIl phctographie matters. These years in flic Information Division were valuabie for fIe wide kncw- iedge gainetio ef liresources cf this immense anti world famous library, and licw mcmi anti women in ail professions anti industries avail fliemselves of flic opportun- ity f0 secume information on au- mest every subjcct. If was duing these yeams, Mm. Camuflers says, fIat libraries be- came interesteti in micraphofo- graphy.

In 1937 Mm.

If new las four photostat machines, f we micra- film cameras anti many other pieces of photographic equipment. This service, Iandling over fifty thousanti orders a year, charges fhe ecipient enly flic actual pro- duction cosf anti postage. Most of flic users are engageti in scientific researech in industrial labarafor- ies, but lawyers, business men, publishers, authars, decorators, designers, gcneaiogisf s, sdhlars, student s anti many ethers make frequent use effflic service. Ealy in 1942, war fcmporariiy took Mr. Carruflers cut of lili- rary work, but flot out of phot o- graphy. Býecause of fhe place he had made for himself in the pho- tographie world, by reason of his work and research in micropho- fography, and also becouse of his knowledge of publications, Mr. Carruthers was called f0 Wash- ington in May, 1942, f0 fulfil a mission whose nature remained a strict secret until lie returned f0 these shores again at the end of August, 1945. Mr. Carruthers can now dis- close that he was sent overseas in June, 1943, as a representative of the Interdepartmental Committee for the Acquisition of Foreign Publications, first f0 Lisbon, the last neutral port on a continent in the grip of the Nazis, where he acted as local field represenfative for the committee. Then witli the advent of 1944, he was made the- atre chief for ail the committee's activities overseas, and directed these first fromn London, then fol- lowing the sweep of the Allied Armies affer D-Day, in various European countries. His task completed, Mr. Carruthers report- cd back f0 Washington in the early autumn of this year. He flien returned f0, Canada for a short vacation af home with his parents, Mr. and Mrs. W. H.
