RSDAY, TEE. 4th, 1~54 TRI OMADIAIi UTATESMAN. mOW~MrVTLLE. oeITARIO PAGE TmRTEEN Couilles Plumbing Dy-Law Meets Wiih Considerable Opposition Allough Piuoe is for Protection Opinions af inembers of No)rthumberland and Durham counties council differ on the mnerits of the by-law covering in9pections of plumbing instal- lations. On the closing day of the January session of council It praduced considerable discus- sion. At th atset, it was pointed Out by Ir unties salicitar Harvey 'j0ient tq the plumbing regula- lions wee established by the provincial government and were compulsory. Mr. Brent's obser- vatiôn followed a question from a councillor who asked if coun- ~il could rescind the by-law. â .r. Brent said the regulatians 'St caver rural areas where rEpu1ation was less than 3.8 r acre. Under the Healtn Sthe minister of health had ~povier to bring in the regu- lations and they were compul- tory. "And we have no control of the costs," commented Reeve Charlie Burrison of Hamilton township. New Building Dep-Reeve G. Rickard of Dar- lirîgton twsp. said the regula- tions would flot affect farm peole but only areas sufficient- lybuilit up ta corne within the 3.8 population density. It had been bard to control building, but with the plumbing regula- tibons being enforced it would be poosible to cantrol at least that phase of construction and there would be proper sanitary facili- ties in new homes. Reeve A. Beer of Manvers township explaîned that the fees went to the municipalities and thence to the health unit.1 Trhe revenue would pay a good, portion af the cost of the plumb- ing inspectar. "These regulations are for aur own protection," said Deputy- Reeve G. H. Free of Campbeil- fard. "It will guarantee that the work will be done by men who know their job. I know af people who have bought aew houses and then had ta rip up the sew- ers because they weren't put ini right. Reeve R. Bothwell af South Monaghan township said it was a shame and a disgrace the way some plumbing was instal- led. City plumbens like ta get rural contracts because there are no plumbing regulatians ta hinder the type of work that is done. I'Get in now in regard ta this plumbing bylaw and you wili have same measure of contrai over plumbing. Otherwise you are going ta be in for trouble," warned Deputy-Reeve Rickard. Licenslng A resolution in the agricul- tural committee repart, endors- ing licenses for tractons, was at- tacked by same of the counicil. Reeve L. Hootan of Cavan township said it would be a hardship ta have ta pay a il- cense for a tractor. Many farm- ers had their land spiit by a road and they used the tractor going ta and fro alang the road, he said. Deputy-Reeve Rickard declar- ed that ail roads were danger- ous. He said that in some cases a man whose licence had been suspended because af drinkingi or sorne highway offence just used a tractor and was able to get away with it. The ma jority of council agreed and the corn- ANNOUNCEMENT Kingsway Lunch NEWCASTLE ls now serving FPIsHR & CHIPS £ nday to Thursday, from il to 2 and 5 to 7 Friday from 12 noon to 2, and 5 to 12 midnight Saturday from 12 noon until closing.

They're trying to influence the young and tender minds of we young in- nocents. Communistic sympath- ies were definitely in evidence during an announcement made in the high school assembly on Thursday morning. As the scene opened we be- held comrade Turner standing 7in the middle of the stage sparting the biggest, reddest star you ever saw and uinging that familiar tune "Changing Comrades." He was joined by camrade Brooks arrayed in similar attire who was hummning a few bars of "Take My Hand, I'm a Stranger in Siberia" as he entered. Atter a few mo- ments of witty banter whlch could only have originated ini the deepest, darkest sait mine in Siberia, comrade Markle, commonly known as "Pinky' entered upon the scene, render- ed a sweet littie number- We don't want a We don't want a If you're careless wlth your your fight Find another Statelite! and produced a telegram an- nouncing the forthcoming B.H. S. "At Home." This was sup- posedly the reason for the an- nouncement, but, we are cer- tain it was just a clever ruse to cover up their actual, sneaky motives. These three would bear watching Senator. We would suggest that you get some of your men on it rîght away. And whîle you're at it maybe you could arrange ta have some of the books around here burned. BOYS' BASKETBALL By Jim Hooper O.C.C.I. ventured to B.H.S. last Wednesday ta play aur Juniors. Ia the first hall B.H.5. rather dominated the scoring. They must have thought they had a big enaugh -lead not ta play that hard in the second half. This fact is shown in the number of points scored by each team. The points in the second haif were as follows: B.H.S.-22, O.C.C.I. -21. Kelly for B.H.S. was back ini fine shape sinking 22 points out of 46 for the home team. The high scorer for O.C.C.I. was' Kalodzie with 10 points. The attendance for the game was a littie better than usual but stili couid be greatly im- proved.

GIRLS' BASKETBALL By Carole Gibner On Jan. 29th the girls' bas- ketball teams went ta Port Hope ta play two exhibition games against their high schoal. Port Hope junior team went ta C.O.S.S.A. last year and sa our Juniors didn't do too badly even if they did lose. The Jun- iors brought up their score vezy well in the second half. It was rather a rough game and the referees, Mary Husack, Bow- manville, and Pat Thompson, Port Hope, were at a Jase ta know how to calm the teams down. Top scorers on the Junior teams were. Pat Conway (8), 'Bowmanville, and Liz Ross (14), Port Hope. The total score was: Bowmanvllle (21), Port Hope (30).

John Elder, mis- sionany on furiough fram the Canadien Pnesbyterian Mission ln British Guimne, defended the necent British military action in British Guiena, as a precaution- any measure against Commun- ist disturbences, when the con- stitution af the Coloay was sus- pended and warships and troops sent ta the scene. The Communiste came into power, he stated, because di the genenal iliitenacy and ignorance of the electars, the majority af wham are East Indien Hindus and Mohammedans, end Caribs. or blacks. The Communists pramised that ail would be able ta have refnigerators, radios, cars, and whet-nat, under their regime. He steted that the parade in Georgetown when the gavern- ment chaaged haads was emus- îng, one truck-load af celebrants e nthusîasticeiiy singing, "There'll Aiways Be An Eng- land," and just as eathusiastic- ally waving red flags. The stan- dard of living there is very low, and education af the masses car- ried on under difficulties.

Ia speaking of the wank of Christien nmissions in the Cal- any, Mr. Eider sald that thene weeonly 280 odd primany or grammar schools la the country, and that the missions of the his- torie denaminetions, - Church af Engiand, Church of Scotland, Methadiats Congregationalits, and Caneclian Preabytenian - were respoasible for 248 af these schools. Hie himseaf was maneging di- recton or superintendeat of fine- teen of these, heving oversîght of the hlrlng and peying of teachers, the cane and ei'ectian of buildings, ad receiving from the Governmeat for the purpose the sumo ai $100,000 for build- ings, eand $250,000 for salaries, during the year. The nespanse to the religiaus appeal was steady and growing, new church buildings an the ia- crease, and congregatians of five and six huadred net uncommon. Because the missionaries af ahi denominations were taking an intenest la the weifare and edu- cation af the population, the at- titude had veered from hostîlity in the eariy days, stoning and maitneatment, ta one of friend- liness and co-aperation. The Hindus and Mohamme- dans were the descendants af in- dentured laborers brought aver ta work on the sugar planta- tions. The blacks were descen- dants af slaves bnought from Africa. Through inter-marriage and non-segregation a new race was being bora, and barring ac- cidents and political upheaval, the Colany feced a bright fu- ture. Mr. Eider showed sides ai the country-side and its indus- tries, sugar plantations, fishing, and diamond mining. Hie was appeaiing, he said, for the sup- port ai the Canadian Church, and for five edditional mission- anies ta engage la evangelistic and educationel work. Mr. Eider is returning ta British Guiana an March first. RA 42 MON ST.

Weathen and roads were nat the best s0 the attendance was nat et Its best. The bnoadcest an Free Trade With U.S.A. was veny weli tek- en and the discussion was ive- ly, each group bringing la dii- fenent conclusions. One was in favon ai much lowen tarifis and eventually inee trede. The other said, the supenian industnial stnength ai U.S. and financial supenîority would allow them ta monopalize-aur industries and Canada wouid become the raw producer for thein big machines and be aven-rua politicaily aiso. It led ta plenty ai intenesting argument. Next meeting wihl be at the home of Mr. and Mrs. N. Mount- jay. Aiten a fine recreation period the hastess served a lovely lunch. PROVIDENCE FORUM Forum met et the home ai Mr. and Mrs. John Fayen ta dis- cuss the subject "Barniens ta Trade". There were twenty members present. Whether orn fot free trade with U.S. would benefit the farmers la this area made an iateresting question with one gnoup favouring free trade and the other gnoup taking a nega-1 tive view. We feit that the pro-1 ducers ai vegetables and fruits! would have veny unfair coin- petition. The effect oi free trade an other farm products might be advantageous ta the farmer if the barriers were lifted slow- ly aven a period ai years. With free trade the price on each side ai the border would be an the saine level and oniy the cost ai transportation would gavein the movement ai farm products. If campiete free trade with U.S. was realized we feel that eventually U.S. would damia- ate this country ecaaomically and probably many ai aur in- dustries would be moved ta the U.S. leaving Canada ta grow the raw matenials.
