"Durham County's CGreat Family Journal" VOLUME 97 BOWMANVILLE, ONTARIO, THURSDAY, MARCH Sth, 1951 6e PER dOPYNUBR1 Council To Consider Civil Defence F-zogram Set-Up for Peace or War UyNext Regular Monthly Meeting Couneillor G. R. Wooll, Chair- man. o! the Industrial Committee, presented a brie! on civil defence to Town Council at thein meeting Tuesday evening. After thoroughly delving into the question, Mr. Wooll recom- mended that Council should take steps to evolve a civil defence plan wbicb would be effective in peace or war. Claiming not to be an alarmist, he said the many disasters currenthy featured in the daihy press - floods, train wrecks - necessitated some kind o! organization capable o! doping with such an emergency localhy. Mn. Wooll necommended a de- fence comrittee be appointed and that a civil defence plan be pre- pared. Training of volunteer wonkers sbould also be initiated. Considering that the subject is complex, Council decided to in- vestigate ahl the aspects o! civil defence prior to next meeting. It was believed that personal ne- search by each councihior would enable more complete action on the question of civil defence. Grant la Approved ~Cuclapproved a granýt o! $4,000 to Community Council for Recreation in order that they may meet expenses in 1951. A. M.

Tag Day Approved Council unanimously approved a request fromn Miss Helen Cry- derman to bold a Tag Day for the blind Saturday, Marcb 5th. AIl counicillors were present ex- cept for Cotin. A. Darch. Bowmanville Boy In Midst of Fighting In Muddy Korea A Bowmanville boy, PFC Al- len W. Dumrnitt, is serving some- where in Korea with the Ameni- can 7th Infantry Division accord- ing to bis mother, Mrs. Laverne Souch, 58 Duke Street. Called "Souchie" by most o! his friends in Bowrnanville, Allen retains the name taken by his mother in ber first marriage and is officially known as PFC Allen W. Durnritt, Ra 16261850, to the American Arrny. Born in Port Huron, Mich., the 22-year-old soldier was brought to Canada when 18-h-ontbs-old and bas lived bere up to bis en- listrnent in the U. S. Army in January, 1948. The Dumrnitts took up residence in Carnpbell- ford originally. but when Allen was nine, moved to Bowmanville. PFC Durnritt attended Central Public Scbool and worked for a while in the Goodyear here. He Mayor Disceusses Civic Af fairs Taxes Mount t. An Ail-Time High This is Education week in On- ,~tario and the theme is said tu be " Education, Everybody's Busi- ~ness." .Witb the receipt o! the Bow- manville Public Scbool requisi- tion for 1951 in a total amount o! $66,700.23 it bas been forcibhy brought home to us, in no uncen- tain way, tbat Education is, in any event, the taxpayers' business. Fnom the time o! the com- mencement o! the present system o! Public Scbool grants in 1945 until last year, the mili. rate in respect o! Public Schools in Bowmanville bas isen fromn 6.5 to 14.3 and this year having re- gard to the requisition mentioned above it will be 22 or 23 mihîs. The letter from the Board Secre- 4ery ""tes in part "The increase made up chiefly o! salary in- 'rases and a deficit o! approx- lmately $5250.00 carnied over frmlast year." At this particular time in our Xational and Municipal economy the excessive demands o! the teachers in Bowmanville are.only typical o! the current adoption tgke the hindmost." We ame fully aware of the pressures that have been brought to bear by the Teachers' Associations in these matters and o! the threats that Scout Paper Drive Realized $141-48 As a nesult o! their Saturday paper drive, the Boy Scout As- sociation is $141.48 icher accord- ing to information rcceived. They gathened 23,580 pounds o! old newsprint from generous Bow- manville residents wbo tied their old papers in small bundies and placed tbem on the curb for pick- Up. The Boy Scout Association would ike to thank those pensons wbo donated to thein drive and ,w also those people wbo donated Ao âtrucks to help in the colledtion. Fnom past experience, lt would appear that citizens o! Bowman- ville are anxious to have their old papers picked up thus remov- ing a nuisance froni the cellar, on whenever papers are stored in the borne. The Scout Association are onhy too eager to take al the old papen you bave. The next papen drive will be beld Satunday, Apnil 28. Bowmanville wvill be placed upon the "grey list" of the Association in question should the demands not be met. In these difficuit times with which we are ail faced, the teachers have apparently refused flot only to belp us to ride out the storm but to insist in rocking the boat. May I quote from an article of Dr. Charlotte Whitton in a recent issue cf The Canadian Statesman: "Government, at the top, must begin by spending less and doing the essential things; deferring unessential services and take bu- man money and power. Business and industry must do more for less profits and ail of us who are shareholders must prepare to support such a course. Labour, agriculture, the professions and the service pursuits - ahl of us must be prepared to sacrifice, no, rather to serve, - by doing more for less for our personal profit anddedicating that extra stint to the common weal. It must bc a partriership and if any one ele- ment-in it fails, then it will col- lapse ultimateiy in the whole structure. It will flot be easy; neither wili chaos and commun- ism, the alternative."

Another business on King Street is also scheduled to change hands April lst. Effective March lst, Don Me- Gregor of McGregor's Hardware Store, expanded his floor space, to take in the store formerly oc- cupied by Edwards' variety of merchandise. According to Mr. McGregor this new floor space will be devoted to beavy hard- ware and equipment. An arch- way between the stores bas al- ready been made and merchan- dise and fixtures are being in- stalled. The second store to change hands is Atkins Flower Shop.

Humanitarian Treatment of Prisoner In Reform Institutions Shows Resuits Crime has always been a prob- lem in Canada according to J. Alex Edmison, K.C., President of the John Howard Society, but the situation is gradually improving. Mr. Edmison addressed the Men's Canadian Club in the Balmoral Holel Feb. 28tb. Substantiating bis dlaim, Mr. Edmison told club members that eveny newspaper back through the years contains crime stories. "If not car thieves," he said, "then horse thieves." In any one year Up to Sept. 30, 1949, 86,000 men, wornen and boys emerged from penitentiaries, reformatories, jails and training schools, according to the speaker. Mn. Edmison said some remark- able reforms have been made in penal institutions witbin the last five years. He referred to the Ontario Training Scbool for Boys at Bowmanville as "one o! the best institutions of its kind any- where." The speaker's opinion was based on visits he bas made to similar schools in eight or nine diffenent countries. Compliments Major Foote The speaker expressed pleasune that Major John W. Foote, V.C., M.P.P. for Durham' County, was appointed Minister r,-' Reform In- [stitutions. "I bave known bimn a long time," Mr. Edmison said, "as a man who is interested in bis fellow man." He mentioned the work of Major Foote in connection with one of the most serious problems in Canada, alcoholics. He said Mr. Foote was particularly inter- ested in these people and witbin weeks after bis appoîntment, a bospital for alcoholics was open- ed at Mimico. According to Mr. Edmison, the bospital opening was directly attributable to Major Jack Foote. Touching upon thV Federal field, Mr. Edmison termed Deputy Commissioner of Penitentianies, Joseph McCully, one of the most fluent speakers in Canada. He said Mr. McCully could provide the thrilling story of what bias bappened in Canada's penitentiar- ies since 1946. Mr. Edmison told Canadian Club members that prison guards undergo a training course and are taught bow to get the best out of prisoners by us- ing the "humanitarian approach." "The greatest punishrnent is the loss of liberty," Mr. Edmison said. No matten wbat entertainrnent or recreation is provided, prisoners bave liberty uppermost in their minds. Emphasize Rehabilitation Under the Federal syster ern- phasis is on rehabilitation. Pris- oners are now being treated like human beings in Canadian pen- itentiaries.

"These people are hurnan be- ings," the speaker said, "and their best instincts are being cat- ered to."

The Church in Canada bas a wonderful future abead o! it, according to the Moderator o! the United Church o! Canada, tbe Right Reverend Clarence M. Nicholson, B.A., D.D., in bis ad- dress at the special meeting. o! Oshawa Presbytery beld in Tnin- ity United Chunch, Friday even- ing. March 2nd. More than 500 people, representing the Churuch- es in Presbytery, were gathened to welcome the- Modenator. In bis travels tbrough the whole o! Ontario since January, Dr. Nich- olson said he bas met many fine people o! the Cburch, and finds it wonderfuh to be assured o! the quality o! the people before birn. This significant service, in wbicb be was happy and honored to bave a part, was evidence o! the vitality o! the Cburcb, ac- cording to Dr. Nicholson, in that it raises up its servants. He re- joiced to see the young men and women ready to serve their Church in the person o! the sev- en candidates fnorn Oshawa Presbytery studying for tbe min- istry. He presented each o! the candidates with a Book o! Com- mon Order on behaîf o! the Pres- bytery. God's Profound Promise As bis text, Dr. Nicholson chose the verse be considers greatest o! ail, the profound promise o! John 3:16, "For God so loved the wonld, that He gave His onhy be- gotten Son, that whosoeven be- lieveth in Him shahl not perish but have everlasting life." This the Moderator considers the cen- trality o! the gospel of Jesus Christ, that the Chunch under- takes to proclaim. Dividing the verse into four phrases, be began with the basic phrase, "For God so loved tbe world . . . " The fundamental tnuth we must always bean in mi, according to Dr. Nicholson, is that God is love, and God wil always love. There is univers- ality in love, for God loves ail men cqually. In these days o! great crisis, we mnust decide whe- then we really believe the Word, that God's love. touches ail men, no matter wha-t thein moral con- dition, and His' Love is always there. Mçn dnaw to. God; not because of wbat they are, but because He loves tbem. The Church. sbou]d be a ýhaven, for sinners, flot just a meeting place for the wel-dressed on Sunday mornings.. We can always say, "I bave much, because God loves me in gladness, pain, light or darkness." "That He gave His only be- gotten Son . . .' is a phrase o! deep intent. Wben God gave His Son on the cross, He gave Himself. The Churcb has al- ways proclairned Jesus Christ as the Etennal Son of God, and we must hold to the doctrine o! tbe Trinity. Lovlng Means Glving God sa loved the world that He gave. Where love is there is giving. God doesn't want money from cold-hearted people, but fromn people who love, for they will give wilingly. If we pray that love will corne singing in our beants, we cannot help but give, said the Moderator. "Let the love of Christ corne surging, in. Let members of the Churchi feel warm in their bearts as the love of Christ cornes surging in.e' What is the promise of ever- lasting ife? Is it somewhere be- yond the coffin, a state beyond whîch man cannot drearn or im- agine? The kingdorn is in us, a joy that conquers aIl fear, gives new peace, confidence and hope. It gives a sense of freeness, with no fear of the world, what people say, or customs, but an expansive ife rounded in the promises o! God. The spirit of God gives evenlasting ife. Belief Is Action How can xve attain everlasting ife? The text says, "For God s0 loved the world, ... that who- soever believeth." Belief means taking ideas frorn the mind and changing themn to action, living what we beieve and profess. Be- lief is action, integrating our wills and purposes with God... Wben we so live, love and walk, then cornes the promise of ever- lasting life. As much as God gives any light and understanding in the mind, that is the gospel, according to Dr. Nicholson. Preacbing is achiev- ed onhy wben xinds are open to the gospel and assent to it. The Moderator finisbed wîth a prayer. "Grant that God may corne into men's and women's responsive minds, and corne within their wills, that they migbt bear truth. and do truth wberever the Gos- pel is preacbed in our Churches. Amen." Mlnistry Candidates Accepted Before the address, two broth. ers, Arthur H. Mundy, and George A. Mundy, who were recommcnd- ed by the session of Centre St. United Church, Oshawa, were accepted as, candidates for the ministry by Rev. M. C. Fisher, Chairman o! the Pnesbyteny.

Tbnough the mediumn o! air survey, natural resources can be mapped and subsequenthy tapped for the ultimate benefit o! the nation According to the speak- er natural resources form the bases o! any economy. Through air reconnaissance, any specifiL area to be devehoped can be pho- tographed bringing to ligbt de- tails o! geography, soul and water. "Once this information is avail- able," Mn. Wooll said, "it is simple to sec which resounces should be developed." Speaker Introduced ntroduccd by Rotanian Mc] Dale, the speaker told Rotarians it bas taken two generations to compile the first forestry inven- tory in Ontario and at that, most o! the work bas been donc in the hast four years. Modern metbods and equipment today would en- able such a survey to be coin- pleted in two years according to Mn. Wooll. The cost o! surveying any par- ticular parcel o! land by air is but a fraction o! the cost invoived in a ground survey. Mn. Wooll said such a survey would take onc-tenth the time if donc by air photography., In bis opinion, people supphying investment cap- ital should encourage resources mapping throughout the world. Such action would safeguard in- vestment by rcducing the risk in- volved. Resources cannot be de- vclopcd until they are known, and capital cannot move without information. Governments today are awane of the necessity to conserve nat- ural resources because, according to Mr. Woolh. -resources are the truc capital of a nation." People must live on the "interest" pro- vided by natural vesources, flot the "~capital." Bringing statistics into use, Mr. Wooll quotcd information fromr a clipping wbich related to tlhec extent and duration of the wonld's supply o! minerai wealth. Minerai Wealth Depleted "The quantity o! minerai pro- duets consumed during the first bah! o! the Twentieth Century far excceds that of the whole pre- ceding period o! man's existence on carth," be tohd Rotarians. "At current rates o! consumption," be continucd, "it is estimated that known resenves of certain select- cd minerais crucial to industnial- ization would be depleted at the following rates: mron ore (actuai as against potential)-200 years, bauxite-200 years; copper-45 years; zinc-38 yeans; petroheuni -22 years. "If world-wide per capita cor.- sumption were to be increased to the current rate pnevailing in Ît'e United States, mron ore and baux- ite neserves exploitable under present techniques would bce x- hausted in 2.5 and 31 _years re- spectivehy; zinc, copper, tin anda lead would be exhausted in lcss than a decade; pnoved and mndi- catcd petroleum reserves wouid be deplcted in less than three years." At the present time, the popu- bous under-developcd arca.s of the earth are finding it difficuit to meet a per-capitadiet level o! ap- proximatcly 2,000 calories per day. Per-capita consumption in industrial countnies is in the neighborhood of 3,000 calories. Wben consideration is given the nicher foods consumcd in îndust- nialized arcas, effective pen- capita consumption is two to thrce times as great as that prevailing in under-developed areas rather than only 50 per cent greater. According to Mn. Woolh expeni- ence and techniques are now av- aihable for the mnost extensive and comprehensive survcys. ln bis estimation, thcy arc the first step in raising the standard o! living in the world.
