The fatal accidents numbered 247, as compared with 339 during 1931, The total benefits awarded durâ€" ing the year amounted to $5,125,195.56, &s Mmafid with $6,021,302.10 during 1931, the 1982 figures being made up of $4,307,055.18 compensation and $817,240.38 medical aid. Taking a basis of 300 working days, this would average daily benefits awarded of $17,084, reâ€" quiring an average of 698 cheques per day. There was a decrease in the avernge number of new claims reâ€" ported daily from 176 in 1981 to 138 in 1932. The acâ€" vidents reported during December numbered 2,0680, as Some would suggest in these days of retrenchment that the missionary efforts of the church should be curtailed but this would be impossible due to the fact that the men and women on the mission field are there doing a good work, and by no means should this be withdrawn. No new missionary work should be started, although this is a tragedy; but the work which was previously under way should be carried‘on with the greatest enthusiasm. The summary of figures for The Workimen‘s Comâ€" pensation Board of Ontario for the year 1982 shows a total of 41,470 accidents reported during the year, a \ It is true that the Church in common with other orâ€" gamizations was not able to collect as much money as in previous years, but this must be expected, and the officials are greatly indebted to the members for their loyal support. ALTHOUGH nothing official has been given out it is fully expected that when the annual reports of the different churches are presented during this month, they will show that 1932 was fairly generâ€" ous as far as contributions to religious organizations are concerned. Then the pessimists will look t'nck and wonder what was the matter with them in January, 1933. Again toâ€"day purveyors of despair, even if they sit in high places, are in the wrong. Canada and the British Empire will come through the present stress and strain in triumph.. They and the rest of the world will return to normal economic conditions. This is a note touched upon in Premier Bennett‘s New Year message published on Monday last. They were mistaken because they under rated the qualities and staying power of the British race and the powers o( recuperation latent in the British Empire. These were all eminent peopleâ€"in the main, men of vision and understanding, but they were disturbed by what they saw around them. Late in the Great War Lord Lansdowne thought that the Allies could not win. us." ‘Disraeli in 1849; "In industry, commerce and agriâ€" culture there is no hope." On the eve of his death in 1851, the Duke of Welâ€" lington thanked God he would "be spared from seeing the consummation of ruin that is gathering around The publishers of the Oshawh paper are hopeful that. the curtailment of issues may not be of lengthy dura» tion. They are confident that there must come a turn , in the economic deficiency before long. They express * their regret at having to take a step that suggests re~ trogression, but the newspaper business is expensive in the matter of outlay. Employes must be paid and thereâ€" must be current revenue to meet the outgo for newsprint, ink, type mats and other materials necess@ry to newspaper production. THE Mail and Empire in a recent issue, directs atâ€" tention to the following expressions to show that the former days were not better than these nog were the men of past generations more courageous in times of trouble than are men of today. Lord Shaftesbury in 1848: "Nothing can save the Brjtish Empire from shipwreck." A community of the size and importance of Oshawa without a daily newspaper is under a handicap that will be reflected in the businéss organisation. It is of importance that the merchants have at their disposal a daily medium through which they can get a message to customers. It may be aâ€"matter of indifference to mafny business menâ€"whether a daily newspaper surâ€" vives or goes to the wall, but when the actual suspenâ€" sion of such service does take place they will have a difficult time finding a substitute that provides such a convenience at so low a cost. ‘ ~ At the time of the French Revolution, Queen Adelaide of England said that she had only one desire, "to play the part of Marie Antoinette with bravery in the revolution that was coming to England." _ The same is true of the weekly newspaper as has been demonstrated on many occasions in recent years, Regardless of what is said on the subject it is the intelligent use of daily newspaper space that has built up any worthwhile business on this continent and those who think that they can make progress without it are simply fooling themselves and missing an opportunity to make their business a creditable factor in the life of the community. Unfortunately a considerable part of the public has the impression that newspapers possess some mysterâ€" ious method of financing that makes it unnecessary for anyone to pay for services. ‘The newspaper is expected to get behind every cause, contribute its space free of charge while every. other interest associated with the project demands money for its services. The grocer, the butcher, the drygoods merchant are not expected to hand out their goods free of charge. The newspaper is expected to contribute its space, which is all it has to sell, free of charge and to be cheerful and enthusâ€" iastic under the ordeal. o Several dailies in Western Canada have been comâ€" pellied to reduce their services, but it is believed that this is the first in Ontario. | _ ment of daily. publication theâ€"owners of The Times ads mit ‘that, "For the past year it has been extremely difâ€" ficult to obtain sufficient revenue to pay essential costs of publication." _ ~lished at.Oshaws, an Onfarie city with.a popula tion of 28,400 and a firstâ€"class tributary territory, has been forced to revert to publication three days 2 week., PESSIMISTS WERE WRONG THEN AND ARE SO NOW In ANNUAL CHURCH MEETINGS EDITORIAL NOTES of the temporary abandon: its Then. sir, with this thought in mind I ask, does the council realize what a vicious principal they are followPng when they cut sglarieu of those, who, through their obligations, have necesâ€" sarily to spend their wages or in other words, keep it in cireulation. It 43 not necessary to be a very scholarly person to figure out that the minute. you cut a man‘s wages, the butcher, baker. mercha:f and | manufacturer (Continued on Page Four) Cufting wages in an unreasonable way puts me in mind of an old Railâ€" way story, "The freight was pulling a very steep Hill and the man in charge was sweating blood thinking the old engine wasn‘t going to make it, but eventually they just got over the top. Wheh they finally made it ‘the conductor said to the new brakeâ€" man, "I didn‘t think we were going to make it‘ and the inexperienced brakeman said ‘neither did I so I put on the brakes so we wouldn‘t slin back." ‘ Now as to the loss of $885.00 which makes us think of the old adage "Penny wise and Pound foolish" this sure takes the cake. The five employâ€" ees whose salary was so drastically cut were making a contribution of $760.00 and the Government subsidies made up another $1520.00 on account of their direct contribution or in all $2280.00. This direct contribution by the emhployees"Will of course be disâ€" continued and the town gets instead from their cut in wages $1395.00. The governtients subsidies cannot be paid against moneys saved by salary cuts but are only against direct relief. Then where in the name of common ‘sense are we ing to recover the difference or agsum of $885.00. ~"It seems tou@ille, sir, that the other 58% who do not use their franchise should get over the attitude of being satisfied to sit down and let a minorâ€" ity which has always been dominated by a clique run the affairs of a town the size of Weston situated as it is in the heart of the greatest populated province of the brightest gem in the British commonwealth of nations.
