HUNTINGDON, QUE., WEDNESDAY, FEBRUARY 28th, 1945 let nd man know thy business, save some friend.EIGHT PAGED Red Cross Drive Opens Monday, March 5th Happy Reunion of Roskes Family in Montreal Wife and Daughters Held by Germans in Poland, Have Many Experiences If there are four happier people in Montreal than Izak Roskes, his wife and two daughters, who are they?People in Huntingdon well know the nervous state of Mr, Izak Roskes ever since he landed in Huntingdon, from Poland, in 1939.His wife and two daughters failed to get out of Poland in 1939 by a few hours time, due to delay in their transportdtion tickets arriving.At that particular time Mr.Izak Roskes was in England.From September, 1939, to June, 1942, they were in Poland and it was nothing short of hell on earth.Mrs, Roskes, daughters Sonia, 23 years of age, and Rachela, aged 19, are now in the Windsor Hotel, Montreal and are to visit Hunting- don this evening, due to arrive heré-on the 8 o'clock train.Mrs, Roskes will be accompanied by her sister, of New York, who had not seen her for 16 years.Sonia and Rachela talked of their years of confinement whilst Mrs.Roskes and Izak listened to them expound to the Gleaner.Truly it can be said Sonia was the greatest informant, Rachela having become more quickly reconciled that she is now safe and with her Daddy.In Poland, the family was in continual fear of being murdered because they were Jews, The Germans over-ran the country and with that the first thing done was to have every Jew tagged with an arm band indicating that the} were Jews.To be seen without the arm band was .sudden death or torture to death.° aq.a They were eye-witnesses to cold blooded slaughter of many fellowmen, g fate they quite =xpected to suffer.Rachela, was on one occasion about to be killad.Her name was posted and the Gestapo entered and called for her.He was alone, he recognized her for he had lived in the same community.The three Roskes had Nicaragua passports and evidence that their father was in America which meant they could be classed as foreigners.The Gestapo spoke to Rachela and in place of murdering her had the record marked that she was a foreigner.Such is a sample of one of the many miracles they went through, said Sonia.Our great salvation was the fact that father was here in America, that we had Nicaragua pass ports, which actualy were worth little real value other than what we were using them for.In their Town of Tarnow, Poland, there were some 30,000 Jews and it took about a week for the Germans to dispose ¢f about 20,000 of them.The Jews were crowded into a town square, kneeling for hours.Without shooting at anybody in particular, the guards occasionally sprayed sections of the kneeling folks (with machine gun and rifle fire.The square was covered with human blood and is still covered with blood, In June 1942 they were taken to an internment camp in Germany, not many miles from Switzerland.Here they were placed in company with many British, American and Canadian women, some having been in this camp since 1939.The camp was formerly a convent and insane asylum, three two- storey buildings with three gardens and some land.The land was worked by the insane or half wits, so to speak.The nuns operated the internment camp in that if any bartering was to take place by the internees it was with the nuns.It may be that an internee had the prospect of securing a bit (Continued on page 4) | Ladies\u2019 Auxiliary Rink Party Proves Very Successful Proceeds to be Used to Send Comforts and Boxes to Boys Overseas The Ways and Medns Committee of the Ladies\u2019 Auxiliary of the Canadian Legion, Huntingdon Branch, held a very successful entertainment at the Huntingdon Skating Rink on Monday evening.There were about 500 persons present and no doubt more would have been there had the weather been more pleasant, A heavy hain fell during most of the evening and no doubt prevented many more from attending, However, the evening was full of amusement for young and old alike and started off with two broomola games, the first between two teams from the Huntingdon High School and the second between a team called the Chateau and one called the Garage.Both games proved very exciting and provided the fans with plenty of thrills, the first game started at about 8 P.M.between the Juniors of the school and Grades 8 and 9 and ended in a score of 3-0 for the Juniors.The teams were as follows: Juniors: Meta Oney, Captain, Frances Middlemiss, Peggy Stark, Mary Dawson, Lilian Beare, Beverly Kyle, Miss P.Nussey.Grades 8 and 9: Carol Martin, Captain, Cassie Boyce, Rhoma Hurst, Catherine Maither, Ruth Christian- son, June McWhinnie, Miss E.Cameron.The second game started at about 8.30 P.M.with the following lineups: Chateau: B.Wilburn, goal, W.Durnin, J.Rolfe, G.Bougie, M.Robert, Helm, Goodfellow, McWhin- nie, C.Lepage, C.McDowell.Garage: J.Chambers, Y.Leduc, F.Hurst, G.Guerin, B.Hebert, G.Murphy, Mac Helm.The game ended in a score of 1-0 in favour of the Chateau team.A hockey game between Orms- town and Huntingdon followed at about 9 P.M.and provided the fans with some real good hockey that many considered one of the best games seen here for some time.Mrs.A.Dawson, President of the Ladies\u2019 Auxiliary, faced off the puck for the official opening of the game.During the first period Ormstown scored 5 goals and Huntingdon scored 2 goals, there were no penalties.In the second period Huntingdon scored two goals to make the score 5-4 at the end of the period, there were no penalties handed out in this frame.The third period saw Orms- town score one more goal, while Huntingdon piled in two to make the score even for 6-6.During this period Mac Arnold was handed the only penalty of the entire game.The ice was soft and the puck hard to carry, but a good game was played all through.Both goalies made some very good saves and deserve much credit.\u2018The game was refereed by Wm.Boyd of Huntingdon and Cartier of Ormstown, and the line-ups were as follows: Huntingdon Ormstown Beaudin goal Cartier Query defence Primeau Arnold defence Boyle Moore defence Prevost Cluff defence Boyle Grant center Guerin Brisbois center McCallum wing Legault Lavasseur wing Cherrier Galipeaù wing Poirier Zabitsky wing Gastonguay Presseau wing Laberge The proceeds of the evening which amounted to $115.00 are to be used for sending comeorts and boxes to the boys overseas.The rink was donated for the evening through the kindness of Mr.A.Antoine, President of the Rink Association.To round off the evening, skating {was enjoyed until about 11:15.Spot \u201cUnemployment\u201d Here It is admitted in Ottawa that postwar unemployment problems are already rearing their heads despite the influx of vast U.8.war orders which will drive Canadian war output to an all-time high within a very few weeks, writes The Finan- eial Post Ottawa correspondent.\u201cOnly a few days ago, press reports quoted Mayor Lucien Borne of Quebec as stating that 2,600 of the city's 3,000 unemployed would be put to work shortly on a new $350,000 federal building to house offices of new government departments.\u201d \u201cThe really astounding manpower fact, not generally appreciated in Canada as yet, is that munitions production is proceeding at a rate near, or close to, the all-time peak for physical output, while at the same time the number of workers in Canadian war plants is down possibly 20% to 25% from the peak figure.\u201d \u201cIn short,\u201d says The Post, \u201cwhile Canadian war plants have lost 200,- 000 or more workers to the armed services and other high priority jobs in the last year or more, there has been little or no let up in the physical output of Canadian war materials.\u201d Finances of Town in Good Condition Net Surplus of $432.27 After All Liabilities Met The Huntingdon Town Council met at the County Building, on Monday evening, for an adjourned meeting to consider the financial Statement for the year 1944.All were present except Alderman La- lande.The financial statement was read by the Secretary and various parts of it explained and discussed.The statement which is published on another page of this issue, showed that the Town is in good financial standing and has a net surplus of $432.27 for the year 1944.The gross surplus shows as $4,088.48, but the following articles were purchased and paid for from this surplus: Snow plow, $448.00; New Equipment for Fire Department, $682.91; Wiater Sewer, $1,003.74 and Heating Equipment for the Filter Plant, $1,521.57, making a total of $3,656.22 for capital expenditures, thus leaving a net surplus of $432.27.The Revenue for the year was $38,226.78 and the Expenditures were $34,138.20 not including the capital expenditures menticned above.All Bonds and interest and other charges were paid for the year 1944 Under the heading of Revenue Liabilities there is shown Notes Payable, $2,000.00.This has been paid off so that all 1944 current payments were made.It was polnted out that the Town had been managed well and that the new assets had been paid for out of current revenue and still a surplus of $432.27 was left.The statement was passed as read and ordered published in The Gleaner and also that a copy be sent to each ratepayer, In view of the services of Mr.Rene Rousselle being so valuable to the Town, it was decided to pay him $30.00 per month commencing from March 1st newt, and until further notice.This concluded the business of the meeting, but the members of the Council discussed a number of matters which they intend to bring up at the next regular meeting on March 5th, 160-POUND ICICLE Brockville, Ont.(CP)\u2014Two Brock- ville children had a \u201cclose shave\u201d recently as they sat reading in their home.A large piece of ice weighing about 100 pounds slid from the roof of a nearby house and crashed through the roof of their house, landing on a bed beside them.THRLE BROTHERS SERVING THEIR

the founding of Rotary 40 years ago and twenty years of Rotary in Malone, on Thursday evening.To mark the occasion, they were hosts to the Rotarians of Huntingdon and their ladies.100 people met in the Franklin Hotel where Dr.Frank Phillips, Ithaca, N.Y.was the guest speaker.Dr.Phillips\u2019 address was particularily interesting to the Huntingdonians who are so new in Rotary, and his address was so informative about the creating of Rotary forty years ago and how it had grown to become 50 large an international community service organization.\u2018Those from Huntingdon who attended were: President Gilbert Mc- Millan; N.F.Manning, Treasurer; Adam L, Sellar, Secretary; Hector Provost, director; E.C.Martin, director and Mrs.Martin, R.Norman Brown, Sergt.of Arms and Mrs, Brown; Robert Rolfe, J.H.De- mers, Paul Lefebvre, Wi.K.Philps, Mr, and Mrs.C.J.Kyle, Mr, and Mrs.W.K.Pope, Mr.and Mrs.Alex Fawcett, Mr.and Mrs.Ivan Heath, Dr.and Mrs, J.E.Caza, and King Scout James Bickford who held high the Union Jack in < company with Eagle Scout Jack Hin- man, Malone, who carried the Stars and Stripes, A candlelight ceremony of Rotary\u2019s Roll Call Around the World was an outstanding feature of the anniversary selebration.Candles were lighted about the various tables as the names of the various countries in which Rotary operates were announced.When all the candles were lighted the electric lights were turned off and a beautiful birthday cake with forty ean- dles aglow, was brought in.The cake was not cut, for the Rotarians immediately voted that such be sent to the Farrar Home for aged ladies.Needless to say.when the aged ladies, many bed-ridden, received the cake, they in turn would have a party of their own.It was a beautiful gesture on the part of Rotary and quite typical of many acts of kindness they endeavour to carry out throughout their years of service, Thanks to Dr.Phillips for his address, were voiced by President Gilbert McMillan, of Huntingdon.The whole event was indeed a very happy anniversary celebration and one that ought to do much toward cementing good fellowship.Federation of Agriculture Presents Brief to Government Want Immediate Abolition of Daylight Saving Time\u2014Continuance of Subsidies Urging the formulation and announcement of a national food price policy by the federal government at the earliest possible date, and asking for immediate attention to a number of matters of pressing concern for the farming industry, the Canadian Federation of Agriculture made its annuel presentation to the federal prime minister and cabinet on Friday, on behalf of organized farmers in Canada.The brief was presented by H.H.Hannam, President and Managing-Director of the Federation, and a delegation including federation representatives from all provinces.Among the matters on which the federation asked immediate action was the abolition of the present wartime daylight saving regulations which the brief stated, have proved burdensome to farmers and to rural people generally across the dominion; the inauguration at once, of a general prices support program for all agricultural products; the continuation of present subsidies on dairy products throughout the summer and with increases next fall; continuation of the present minimum price of $1.25 bushel on wheat for 1945 and 1946; establishment of the present ceiling prices on oats and barley as the initial payment prices, and continuance of equalization payments on these grains; a price of $3.25 bushel for flax; immediate medical examination of all Indians in Canada and full care for those suffering from disease; inauguration of policies that will prevent losses to producers of livestock resulting from congestion of deliveries at the main livestock marketing centers of the dominion.Respecting a national food price policy, the brief stressed the key position which the price level for foods and other agricultural products will assume in determining the fiscal policy of the nation in the years following the war.\u201cAs a first essential in facing post-war problems, Canada needs a definite food price policy\u201d, said the brief.\u201cThe federation of Agriculture believes that if all elements in our economy are co-ordinated and balanced on a moderate price level, it would be the soundest of all policies.\u201d The Federation also urged upon the Government the development of a more co-ordinated production and marketing policy for the dominion, both with respect to home and foreign markets for Canadian agricultural products.In this connection all products, with the grade marks carried through from producer to consumer, and payments made to producers for their products on the basis of grade and a wider differential in price for top grades.The brief urged the expansion and improvement of government machinery respecting the grading, inspecting, handling, storing, and sales promotion of Canadian agricultural products in export markets.Enactment of federal :narketing legislation was also requested.The Federation further asked that the policy of floor prices for farm products be adopted as a permanent feature of the national agricultural policy, and re-iterated its demand of former years for the establishment of a Canadian board of livestock commissioners.Respecting international wheat marketing, the brief urged the application in Canada of the quota system of wheat deliveries.It asked that there be a thorough review of the income tax act as applied to the farming industry, with full consultation with the federation respecting problems in this connection.The Federation desires the widest possible application of the national housing act to rural areas, particularly with respect to farm homes, homes for hired help, and farm buildings, and also asks that the new farm improvement loan &ct be extended to include buildings for cooperative associations.In the field of research, greater appropriations were ¥rged for agricultural research in all its branches.The brief also referred to the improvements brought about in the west, that the benefits of this act be extended to other provinces.In the field of health, the Federation re-affirmed its support of the principles of the national health insurance plan as presented to the government by the federation in 1943.It also urged greater sums for cancer research, and the featuring of milk and its importance in the human diet, in any national health plan adopted by the government.It urged that those discharged from the armed forces through disability, be given adequate attention before being returned to civil life.At the conclusion of the presentation, Premier King congratulated the delegation on what he termed an excellent presentation.He had been impressed, he sald, with the fact that farmers appreciate the full significance of world organization, in it stressed the importance of estab-! which all countries would play a lishing complete grading systems for | part.Cattle Breeders Assisted By Science Successful Experiments in Twin Breeding in Cattle Made in England Cambridge, England\u2014(CP)\u2014These are some of the things now possible as a result of research at the University School of Agriculture here: 1.To increase the size of beef herds by the controlled breeding of twin calves; 2.To bring heifers into milk before they have calved and induce cows which are barren to give milk.3.To make goats kid In the autumn instead of spring or summer, thus increasing the winter supply of milk.The first experiments to encourage twin breeding In cattle were started here by Dr.John Hammond, director of the animal research sta- tion at the university, in 1940 and continued by his son, mond, since then.\u201cWe now have reached the stage where we can guarantee to produce at least twins,\u201d Mr.Hammond Jr., said.ensure control so that the cows don't have triplets or multiple births.\u201cOur method is to inject the cows with serum obtained from the blood of Welsh mares.\u201cDairy farmers don\u2019t want twin calves but for beef breeders they are ideal.A cow can rear two calves as easlly as one, and she costs no more to keep.At present the cost of the serum works out at about five shillings for an injection but when it is prepared on a commercial scale the cost should not be more than about two shillings.John Ham- \u201c Qur present difficulty is to A Pamphlet For Farmers List of Recommended Varieties for Various Field Crops The Quebec Seed Board has just published a pamphlet in which are listed recommended varieties of fleld crops for Quebec, with explanatory notes on different grades of seed and methods of treating diseased gain.This pamphlet is distributed free of charge to farmers, Co- ples may be obtained through the Publications Section, Department of Agriculture, Quebec.In the majorfty of cases, the varieties as recommended by the Provinciai Seed Board should give very satisfactory results, as they have been tested amongst other sorts and subsequent recommendations are based on results obtained through comparative tests.Farmers should therefore be guided by these recommendations in their choice of seed grains.Auto Licenses Ready March 1 Automobile licence plates and operators\u2019 licences will be available on March 1.This is when the automobile licence year officially starts, but inasmuch as the gasoline ration book is valid only on April 1, car owners must retain their old plates until that date.as without the 1944 plate on the car the present ration book will not be valid.Registration and driving licence fees remains unchanged for passenger cars\u201470 cents per 100 pounds or fraction thereof, $1 for the plate and $2.50 for driver's licence.One dollar must also be paid for the gasoline ration book.In a special bulletin issued by the Royal Automobile Club, it is pointed out that the age limit for licensed drivers in the province of Quebec is 17, but minors, married or single, must obtain parents\u2019 authorization before a licence will be issued in their favor.This rule applies each year until the applicant has attained the age of 21.The Quebec licence plate is made of metal, with white numerals on a blue background.By an order- in-council the concession granted last year to commercial vehicles to affix the composition piate on the front of their vehicles has been cancelled and the Bulletin points out that the plate for the coming year must be affixed to the rear, as In tke case of passenger cars.Inquiry Held Salaries School Secretaries And Others Give Evidence An Inquiry into the conditions of school! teachers\u2019 salaries in the Judicial District of Beauharnois, has been carried on over the past two weeks, with a two-day session in Huntingdon, on Monday and Tuesday of this week.Justice Fabre Surveyer, Judge of the Superior Court, from Montreal, is in charge of the enquiry in this district.A demand was made to seventeen Schoolboards in this district, by the teachers, for an increase in salaries.This demand was refused, with the result that under the laws of the Province, this inquiry is being held.John Paul Cossette and L.Codebecq of Valleyfield appeared for the Teachers\u2019 Association of District No.14, while Albert Lablanc and G.Meloche, of Valleyfleld appeared for the School Commissions.Miss Bertha Monette, Vice-President of the Teachers\u2019 Association and Miss Blanche Rousseau, Secretary of the Association were present and took notes on matters brought before the inquiring commission.\u2018The inquiry is to establish the ability of the various schoolboards to pay the inoreases of the salaries asked and to this end the matter of tax rates and valuations was gone into.Teachers interviewed were asked ta give their experience qualifications, how much they paid for board and whether they were local persons and so forth.The inquiry in Huntingden was held in the Council Chamber at the County Building.Several secretaries for various schoolboards as well as others were called to give evidence to the inquiry among them were J.O.Michaud, E.C.Martin and J.B.Macmillan.The inquiry has been investigated in Valleyfleld for the past week and from Huntingdon will go to Beauharnois on Saturday.At the conclusion of the inquiry a period of thirty days has to elapse before a verdict is rendered.BLOOD DONORS UP Regina\u2014(CP)\u2014Blood donations in Saskatchewan during 1944 almost tripled those of the previous year, a Red Cross report revealed.Last year there were 45,297 donations given in the province.WEIGHT SHRINKAGE COSTLY Williams Lake, B.C.\u2014(CP)\u2014Henry Coster, cattleman, told a ranchers\u2019 meeting here

will open.There is probably no other appeal that is more worthy of support than the Red Cross.In this war many people right here in the Cha- teauguay Valley have known the benefit that the Red Cross and the International Red Cross can give and also the comfort it can bring when relatives are missing or prisoners of war.Such people are grateful and feel it is their duty to support the Red Cross to the utmost.Soldiers who are returning from overseas are high in their praise of the Red Cross and those who have had occasion to need blood transfusions are exceptionally high in their praise.There are many instances of the work of the Red Cross of which the only actual proof of their service are the reports of what has been done.But a large number of people throughout this Dominion have had actual proof of the benefits and the work done by this great organization.As the war draws to an end, the work of the Red Cross will multiply rather than diminish and for this reason it is vitally necessary that all support possible be given to this drive which opens on Monday.Quebec's share of the national quota is set at $2.250.000.the iotal for the Dominion is se: at S37.600.000.A large poriion of the money is to be used for Prisoner of War Parcels and these cost approximately $2.75 each which includes all charges to the destination.It is thought that those who have in previous years contributed $1.00 would help considerably if they made their contribution the equal of the cost of one of these parcels.After all it is not very much when one considers the great joy and relief these parcels bring to those who receive them.When one looks at some of the reports and pictures of the men in prisoner of war camps, and sees the treatment meted out.it is no wonder these parcels are so eagerly looked forward to.One would wish that more of these parcels were permitted to be sent to the prisoners of war.The letters of those who Teceive them and the reports from those who have been prisoners of war and have returned home, are convincing enough evidence that these parcels are needed and a necessity.Thus it would be better to make the contribution large enough to pay for one of these, and if all did this, the Red Cross Drive would go over in a big way.Think it over before the canvasser calls, and decide to make your contribution as large as you possibly can\u2014it will be your chance to make someone else very happy.Praise For Quebec FTER receiving much criticism, Quebec came in for a bit of praise from the Financial Post in a recent issue of that newspaper.The Post says that the Postwar Spotlight is on Quebec, and then goes on to give its reasons for the statement.In one statement Abbe Arthur Maheux is mentioned as one trying to effect a better understanding between the French and English-speaking peoples of the Dominion.It will possibly be remembered that the Gleaner printed an article by this same man on the same subject.Regarding the potentialities of Quebec as a great industrial Province, there can be no doubt.The equipment that is right in the province is evidence of that, with electrical power the main asset.Having two great harbours for ocean going vessels is another valuable asset that makes Quebec an important province in Canada.Direct communication by rail to New York and within a few hours distance, is another feature that can be marked down to the credit of Quebec over other parts of the Dominion.It might almost be considered the nerve centre of the Dominion in so far as communication from the most important parts of the Empire, Europe and the United States is concerned.Having been chosen twice for special conferences between Prime Minister Churchill and President Roosevelt already in this war, seems to indicate the importance placed upon this province by these two important countries.Newcomers to this great Dominion from Europe and other Atlantic parts, in peace time, must come through this province either indirectly or directly, before they can become part of the population of this country.Persons leaving the Dominion for the points above mentioned also leave by way of this Province.Thus it figures in almost everything that is done in this Dominion.The greatest metropolis of the country is centred in Quebec Province and trains leave it daily for the greatest metropolis of the United States, i.e., Montreal to New York.\u2018The Post says: 74% of the population is under 40 years of age, 63% live in towns and cities, and 57% of Canada\u2019s developed power is in this province.One has only to look at the development that has taken place in the Chateauguay Valley in the past few years, to realize that more and more Quebec is becoming the industrialized province of this Dominion.New industries are continually opening up in this Valley and more are promised as soon as the war ends.This condition is equally true of other parts of the province.But there remains one great drawback to the complete progress of this province and that is the differences that continually crop up among ite people and those of other provinces over racial and religious matters.Even the Provincial Government is not helping these matters by continually harping on conscription issues and matters of Imperialism.If Quebec is to reap the benefits of its natural position in, the Dominion, the government and the people must co-operate and work as one, no matter the racial origin of the composition.The Provincial Government must work in conjunction and in co-operation with the Federal Government and not be so ready to legislate on Federal matters while letting provincial matters take a.back seat.It is up to the government to set an example to its people and there should be no separation of the people because of racial or religious differences.Even though Quebec may be able to operate on its own apart from the rest of the Dominion and apart from the rest of the Empire, such a policy would not lead to the progress of this province, as its very well- being depends on being able to work within and be a part of this great commonwealth.This is the plea that the Financial Post is trying to put forth in the article published in the recent edition mentioned.It is the plea of Abbe Arthur Maheux and it is the plea that all right-minded citizens wish to make.Progress is made much more difficult where co-operation is lacking, racial feeling does not make for co-operation and without co-opera- tion among all the peoples of this province there cannot be the bright future which the Post paints for it.The way the government acts and conducts itself makes the measurement that industrialists will use to compute their chances of success if they found a business in this province.There are indications that many European firms will want to open up factories in this Dominion after the war.Not only European but some South American firms also.They will not want to locate in a part of Canada where there is friction that may spoil their international! trade with other countries.The Government of the Province by condoning differences over Imperialism is not helping International relations.because it is well-known that England is a great market for items of all kinds made by all manufacturers.Canada has proved its ability to produce in quantity as well as quality, thus it is that industrialists all over the world are looking to Canada in the post war future.As can be seen by the figures quoted on Quebec, no small part of this production has come from this province.Thus it is that Quebec will be foremost in the minds of the people who may be thinking of setting up factories in the after-war period.It is up to the people and the Government of this province to prepare a picture that will be enticing and encouraging.Away with racial feelings, away with religious differences, and work more toward co-opera- tion to the achievement of a great Province of Quebec.Such an outlook on the part of the Government will do more toward achieving that unity that is so necessary, than all the arguments of all parties that are now in office.This one problem alone could occupy the time of every member for every hour and every day of the year for many years to come.In Provincial matters the welfare of Quebec should be first and foremost.Mr.Chaloult Tries Again F there is one man who is persistent on the conscription issue, that one man is Rene Chaloult.During the past week this man has again brought the question before the Quebec Provincial Legislature, and this time has found support for his motion.So far as can be seen only a very few will vote against the motion and one of these is Mr.J.A, Mathewson, a former Provincial Treasurer.Mr.Chal- oult made a motion condemning Mackenzie King because of enactment of conscription and condemning conscription itself.Some of the members while making vigorous protest against the motion, have said they will vote for the motion, because they are against conscription.It seems rather a waste of time to occupy the members of the Legislature in days of debate on a subject that is not only out of the control of a Legislative Assembly, but also a matter that has been debated and passed in the Federal House and is now being enacted.There are other things of far greater importance that the legislators could occupy their time with and it is well known that with Mr.Chaloult, Imperialism and conscription are his pet subjects, It is hard to find any real constructive matter that Mr.Chaloult has brought before the house that would help Quebec in a general way.Why waste time discussing matters of this nature when there is so much that could be done to improve conditions in this province and for the people.Such debates only tend to inflame the racial feelings of the people of the province and to engender hatred of Quebec among the peoples outside.We are all in this war and whether we like it or not the job has to be done and has to be done right and to the utmost of our ability.It is no worse for one people of any racial extraction to be called upon to do its parts than for any other, so iong as all claim to be Canadian.We are fighting this war as Canadians, not as French, Jew, English, Polish, Ukrainian and so on.In the Canadian Army many men of all kinds of racial extraction are to be found.They are in it because they feel that Canada is their country, so why should one section of the people feel bad because they are called upon to do their part.Why should Mr.Chaloult condemn England when that country has stood by the country of his ancestors and seen to it that it is liberated from the yoke of the oppressors.Has Mr.Chaloult no pride in his ancestry that he would not wish to see the country of their birth liberated from the oppression and suffering into which it was plunged?Would he wish to see France a conquered country and under the heel of Nazism for all time, that he is not willing to lift a finger in its defence?Possibly the only condemnation of Mackenzie King that could be made on the conscription issue is that he brought it about too late, not because he brought it about at all.Such a course was inevitable, it was the only Way out for Mr.King to continue in office.It was the only thing to do in fairness to the men who are bearing the brunt of the battie in Europe.When these men return, they will no doubt have plenty to say to Mr.Chaloult for the continual opposition he has shown to the war in general and the effort that Canada is making.Thank God that there are only a few people like Mr.Chaloult, or the Germans ! THE HUNTINGDON GLEANER would be in Canada by this time and if such had been the case, then God help us all.We can only urge that in the best interests of good government in this province, that the members of all parties in the Legislature ignore such motions and get on with business that will have far greater to do with the welfare of the people as a whole.It is debates an such subjects that cause the people to seek changes of government that go outside the old line parties.The world is changing too rapidly to allow governments to debate subjects about which they can do nothing.There is a trend today to get down to business and waste as little time on debates as possible, especially where such debates can accomplish nothing.There are too many important matters facing the people in the years to come, to waste time now.If Quebec is going to take its place in the Post War Future, then some planning must be done to see that the place is achieved.Let the government set the example for good citizenship and the people will soon follow its lead.But while the government is arguing about who should fight who and why,.how can it be expected that John Citizen will make up his mind.There are citizens who will make up their minds and stand by it, but there are a number of others who have to have their minds made up for them.It is for these people that the government can set the example.Good government means good lead- ership\u2014have we got it?Burn and Sink Them If You Must ES, if you really feel you must burn up a pile of mailbags, endanger a great many lives, perhaps even sink a ship, the quickest and easiest way you can do it, without trouble to yourself, is to pack a few matches into your overseas parcel.Pack them loose, and Hitler himself could not make a better job of it.The parcel will then be thrown by the sorter into the proper bag and even that may be enough to ignite those matches.Or perhaps they may lie dormant until the mailbag is thrown into the hold of the ship.Then there is every chance that they will ignite and smoulder for several days until the smoke is detected rising out of the hold.No one will ever know\u2014except the one who did it! There have been three really bad mailbag fires lately from this cause, but although they have been given a great deal of publicity, the pgrcel-packens keep right on packing in their loose matches, and close to lighter fluid too.Another thing you can do if you have decided simply to make a nuisance of yourself, and that is to pack in cocoa powder or chocolate syrup in a cardboard container.This is the very latest tip, and it looks as if these two sweet things were going to outbid jam, honey and molasses for pride of place.It is just amazing what parcel-packers can do.There are so many badly packed parcels reaching the Army Base Post Office at Ottawa that the authorities are regularly repacking 5,000 of them a month.FIRE TRUCK AND BOOSTER PUMP IN Ke.GER AL A ENS Wednesday, February 28th,

Department a few days ago.Possibly the fire dept.is the least publicized of anything in public life except when there is a fire, Then when the fire is over, it is possibly the center of criticism for not having accomplished more than it did.The Gleaner wishes to acquaint the people of Hunt- ingdon with the facts about its Fire Dept.and to give them some idea of the great strides this department has made in the past few years\u2014it is a revelation.Instead of unjust criticism, we believe the Fire Department is deserving of praise.Having this interview we | were able to get some idea of the problems that face this department and the efforts that have been made to overcome them to \u2018he best of human ability.One thing that the Town Coun- cll of Huntingdon has done much to improve in the past few years, is the fire fighting equipment and the instruction given the volunteer fire fighters.This is an important, department in any town or any community, and the stronger and better equipped the fire department is, the greater the benefits to the community.Not only is property less likely to suffer severe damage, *u: infurance rates are likely to \u201ce Ccreased, when the fire fighting services are such that large fires are more easily coped with.In the past few years Huntingdon has expanded both in an industrial way and in the population and number of houses.Prior to the war and before the real expansion took place, Huntingdon's Fire Fighting equipment was only the average of the small town and in many cases inadequate to handle very large fires.The story is different today.BOOSTER PUMP PURCHASED \u2018While Huntingdon was equipped with a hydrant system, there were numerous defects which allowed that the system was not reliable In the case of fire.That is, at hose reel with several hundred feet of hose.When a fire occurred, this hose was attached to the nearest hydrant and only the pressure to be obtained from the hydrant was possible for use.The pumping equipment in \u2018those days \u201c|WAs not as good as that which we have today.The volunteer fire brigade of those days was not trained in the real art of fighting fires and depended on whatever number of citizens would be willing to go out and help fighting a fire.Under such conditions, the fire insurance rate was naturally high, In 1925, a booster pump was purchased, after much discussion by those not in favor of it, It took a fire to prove the usefulness of this piece of apparatus, before the town officials were sold on the booster pump.Thers was some difficulty in getting the pump into action at this first fire, due to the fact that no one knew how to operate it, The apparatus was here on demonstration when the fire occurred, and it was seen that the fire was beyond control, when someone suggested trying the new booster pump, As that time, the town only had a stated there was some time lost in getting it working and this very fact gave those who opposed its purchase, a chance to say \u201cI told you so\u201d.But when the pump was finally in operation, the fire was subdued so quickly that all were convinced it was a desirable piece of fire fighting equipment.Thus it stayed in Huntingdon.This was the first start toward the town building up a real fire fighting organization, although it has taken years to bring to the present point of perfection.FIRE HALL BUILT It was soon found that some suitable and possibly permanent structure should be built for a fire hall to house the equipment of the fire dept.Thus it was in 1927 the present Fire Hall was built, and in this there was a forward look to the future, for it was built on a large scale considering the amount of equipment then on hand.Even with this fine Hall, the equipment still had its drawbacks for fire fighting.The reel had to be drawn to a fire by hand and also the booster pump.On some occasions a horse was handy or someone had an automobile near by.In the winter time the roads were not plowed out as they are today, thus it will be seen that much time was lost in reaching the scene of a fire before anything could be done to get it out.It was decided in 1928 that a fire truck should be purchased and be available for quick transportation of the hose, ladders and other equipment to a fire.The booster pump was hooked on behind the truck.While the fire truck it not one of the specially built type, but was really an ordinary car converted for the purpose, it has served the town well and is still in fine condition.It was a marvelous addition to the fire dept., and had the effect of increasing the efficiency of the fire fighters and cutting down the time in getting to the scene of a fire.INDUSTRIES MAKE NEED FOR GREATER, FIRE PROTECTION With the advent of several industries locating in Huntingdon, and a sharp increase in population, there came the need for greater protection against fire and more improvement in fire fighting equipment and technique.It was necessary to improve the pumping equipment as more water was required and greater distances had to be covered.To this end, the Town enlarged its water works system with the latest improvements in pumping and purifying the water.Several of the mains were enlarged and new ones installed at different parts of the town.But still when fires occurred in parts of the town that were on the extremities, or where there was à big drain on the system by way of supply, the hydrants would not give a sufficient stream of water to fight ga fire.Before the Convent fire occurred, it had been pointed out that the water pressure in that part of town was very poor and if a fire did occur in that neighborhood, it would probably result in a complete loss.Sure enough when the fire at the Convent did occur, it resulted in that building being completely ruined.The water pressure was not sufficient and two lines of hose could not be trained upon the fire from the lone hydrant in that vicinity.Just previous to this, there was a disastrous fire at the hardware store of Braithwaite Bros., on Chateauguay street.These two losses following one another within a few weeks, caused great concern to all persons in Huntingdon and to the industrialists in particular.It was felt that insurance rates would increase and that fire protection was very poor for a town of this size.It was therefore decided that an overhauling of the fire dept.was necessary and that better provision for fighting future fires should Be made.Some improvements had been made before this time, under the leadership of Mr.Cecil Stark.as Fire Chief, and the fault in fighting the fires did not lie entirely at the doors of the fire fighters themselves, For some time previous, Mr.René Rousselle had been making a study of fire fighting and the methods that should be employed, and offered his services to the Council to assist in any way he could.This matter was brought to the attention of the Council by Mayor W.E.S.McNair, and it was decided to have Mr, Rousselle help on the fire brigade &nd to purchase some books and other equipment which he needed, Consequently, Mr.Rousselle acted as sub-chief of the fire brigade, under Mr.Stark.With the help of the books and continuous study of the various things that might affect the proper fighting of fires, the start of a general improvement in.the fire fighting methods and equipment was made.IMPROVEMENTS STARTED The first thing tackled after the two fires mentioned, was the booster pump, which had failed to operate effectively at the Convent fire.It was found that this needed overhauling badly and putting into its proper shape.This was done and many improvements were added to it, so that today.it is in first class condition and has proved its worth at several fires since.Some of the improvements are: a generator has been installed to charge a battery which lights a spotlight on the vehicle for providing light for the operator to make connections and watch the operations of the pump.An oil cup has been installed which guarantees instant action of the pump and supply of water as soon as the pump is operating.The pump has a possible lift of eighteen feet and 120 lbs.pressure at the pump itself, the pressure is shown by a guage.A tool box to carry all the equipment has been placed on the machine so that tools are always with the pump when it arrives at the point of use.These improvements make the booster pump most dependable and ever ready for use when needed.At weekly intervals the whole mechanism is checked so that any possible defects can be quickly detected.In the case of the fire at the Chateauguay Barracks, this booster pump proved its worth and no doubt saved a more system had been depended upon.R The defects being noticed in the serious fire than if the hydrant DEFECTS IN HYDRANT SYSTEM EMEDIED hydrant system, this was the next job tackled and to a great extent has been overcome today.A special test meter was purchased by Mr.Rousselle and he set about the task of testing the different hydrants in all parts of town.It was soon discovered that many of the hydrants were not giving the maximum pressure required.With this in mind, the sub-chief got his inventive brain working and made a testing apparatus that would detect leaks in the water system.With the aid of this piece of mechanism, tests were made and it was soon disclosed that there were several bad leaks on the main that runs along Chateauguay Street.Work was commenced on these leaks and after a short time they were stopped.The result, was that there was an immediate increase in the water pressure all over the town system.Naturally the condition of all the hydrants was improved and today very high readings can be obtained at almost any hydrant in Town.A further improvement was also obtained when the new main was installed to Chateauguay Barracks, as this caused a relief to the town water system and also improved the pressure at the barracks.Several hydrants have been removed and repaired, while some others have been replaced entirely.Two more are waiting to be installed in the spring.The Town of Huntingdon is considered to be approximately a mile square and within this area there are 40 hydrants placed at the most strategic points, so that it is possible to obtain water for a fire at almost anywhere within the town.town over the N.Y.C.tracks would present the firemen with their greatest problem at the moment, as it would tax the hose capacity and the water volume to fight a fire in that locality.It is hoped that when water is laid to this part, that at least a four inch main will be used, and a hydrant can then be installed near this point, FIRE DEPT, AND EQUIPMENT CHECKED Having overcome as far as is possible the hydrant problem, the next step was to check the fire department itself and the equipment.In with this, the volunteer fire brigade was also re-organized.In approaching the Council on matters pertaining to the fire equipment, the brigade found they obtained a ready response to the constructive suggestions which were made.Thus it is today that Hunt- ingdon Fire Brigade would rank very high among other volunteer brigades for a town of like size.The fire truck came in for a checking up and the result is that the equipment is loaded on it in such & manner as to give maximum ef- ficlency in case of fire.In place of the truck just carrying the hose in colls and one straight ladder, that invariably was too short, it now carries a 35 foot extension ladder and also a roof ladder: a 10-man outfit consisting of helmet, coat and rubber boots; gas mask; 5 fire extinguishers; various types of hose, couplings and nozzles; a special type of hose shutoff; two prodding poles for cell- ings; axes, etc.In order to accommodate this extra equipment, a The new portion of | special rack was built onto the truck and everything is carried in orderly fashion.The hose is so loaded onto the truck that one man can step off while it is in motion and bring yards of hose off with him already to be coupled to the hydrant.As the truck goes on, the hose is laid out until it reaches the requffed distance.A certain size hose is placed on one side of truck and another type is placed on the other.The latter has several feet of 1% inch hose attached to the 2% size.This is done by means of a Siamese connection which allows for the two smaller hose being coupled to the larger hose and gives two streams of water if required.The Siamese coupling has independent shut-offs for each of the two smaller hose and each of these has an independent nozzle with shut-off.Thus it is possible to control the water at several handy points without shutting down the hydrant.In the olden days, it was necessary to shut down the hydrant or leave the water running.With this equipment there is a minimum of (Continued on page 7) Fox CH HAT\u2019S all this talk about life insurance being a monopoly?ANSWER: It\u2019s just not true.If you want to shop around in Canada for insurance\u2014you can pick an American company, or a British company, or a Canadian company.You may choose a stock company, or a strictly mutual company.You may select either a participating or a non-participat- ing policy.You mean there\u2019s real competition?ANSWER: There is, indeed.Anyone who has let it be known that he is in the market for insurance realizes just how keen competition is between the different companies.He knows they offer a wide variety of plans and premium rates.Monopoly is a term which can never be truthfully applied to the life insurance

first real mild spell | there has been this winter.the weather this week turned colder.| Water was running freely on the streets on Thursday.Friday and Saturday and the snow was quite soft.On Monday rain fell toward late afternoon and during the entire evening, but later froze and made walking very unpleasant.On Tuesday it was much colder and during the morning a strong wind got up and it snowed, turning into a real blizzard, which lasted for most of the day.It gave one the idea that March was coming in like a lion.It is a complete change from the past week.-0- Kiddies Enjoy Afternoon at Rink Some 150 children attended the free entertainment sponsored by the Huntingdon Skating Rink on Saturday afternoon.There was much fun during the two hours and the refreshments of sandwiches and hot chocolate did a fast disappearing act as the hungry youngsters got into stride at refreshment time.Everyone thoroughly enjoyed the treat.-0- Bulldozer Clears Some of Snow During the few days mild spell of the past week, the Government bulldozer plow cleared the snow on the plank road and also widened out Chateauguay Street and on toward Trout River.The roads were getting into bad condition with the deep ruts, and this helped considerably to smooth them out.The Town plow was out also and cleared a lot of the snow back to widen the streets in town.It would be well for the Town plow to be out at the first soft spell and see that the bad ruts are eliminated and the soft snow removed.There were sharp rebukes during the last soft spell on account of so many cars being stuck in the soft deep snow and not being able to get out of the deep ruts.-0- Donations to the Hospital The following donations have been received at the Huntingdon County Hospital, from Mrs.Robert Milne: Cocoa, soup,

the letters we sent father all passed the censor, but we were always careful about what we wrote in our letters.Others in camp wrote severely about their internment, and of course such outgoing

unprecedented scramble among candidates representing a variety of parties.It is estimated that there will be more than 820 contestants in the field for the 225 Commons seats.There will be a multitude of three-way contests, many four-cornered battles and several ridings in which there will be five or more candidates.In this respect the national campaign will be a free-for-all on a scale never before equalled.The Liberal party is the only one * which plans to have candidates in every riding in Canada.The C.C.Fis next with official forecast of 225 and the Progressive Conservatives plan to

the bank than when the war started.They also hold an average of $580 in war bonds for every man, woman and child in the nation.This does not include extra cash nor victory bonds held by corporations or financial institutions.This was revealed in the annual, report of the publicly-owned Bank of Canada covering 1944 operations.The report also showed that Canada has spent $17,000,000,000 on the war, more than 10 times as much as Canada spent in the first world war: and a total of $20,000,000,000 since the war started.Of this huge sum half has been paid by taxes and current revenue.Of the balance about $6,600,000,000 has been financed by war bonds bought and retained by individual Canadians which | means the ordinary men and women in all sections of the country.Last year the Bank of Canada made profits of $20,300,000 of which it paid $18.300,000 to the federal.treasury after adding $2,000,000 to the rest fund as required by law.Canada And The World Canada's increased status in

have landed in Britain.The minister of | national defence says that infantry i reserves overseas now are sufficient to meet months of heavy action by the Canadian armies in Northwestern Europe and in

Enterprise?\u201d were announced in the November 1 issue.The fol- jowing entry has been awarded the first prize of $250 in War Bonds, Free enterprise means an open road for merit, Under free enterprise the individual or group of individuals may accomplish and achieve in proportion to ability and capacity.Freedom of opportunity for all is the purpose of the free enterprise system.It recognizes the rightful heritage of the American citizen to get ahead and It encourages him to accept opportunity to improve his economic status, .The individual is the basic unit in free enterprise, When this fact is understood, the misconception that business is the chief beneficiary of the free enterprise system will be eliminated.Enterprise is not confined to business activity.An individual must be enterprising in order to live and the freer he is to venture, the better he can live, That is iree enterprise.He may join his activities with another, and in partnership the two of them may build a business.That is free enterprise.Or he may merge his interests with those of thousands of other individuals as stockholders in a large corporation, That is free enterprise.The success of business is the success of individuals.There could be no business, large or small, were there not free opportunity for the Soon he opens a savings account In time he buys & small shop of his own He

capitalist.Each individual is at once producer and consumer, buyer and seller.He is free to travel the open road to merit.The free enterprise system discounts class consciousness, It deplores hatred and intolerance, It holds that all men are created equal in opportunity.-It promotes good human relations, Free enterprise provides no special privileges.It comprehends restrictions on those who seek to take advantage of it for their selfish gains at the expense of their fellows.It protects by lay and public opinion against fraud and unfairness.It calls for fair dealing between all men and for regard for the right of others.The best interests of the individual gre served by private rather (than by government enterprise, Regulation and regimentation are the antitheses of free enterprise,

three days, ending on December 1st.The political humbug of the convention's proceedings and findings are enough to stir the honest disgust of any sensible citizen \u2014and we propose to deal with the convention in just those terms.In the days of the supposedly \u201cwicked old parties\u201d humbug and deception used to be referred to with | cynical contempt as \u201cpractical\u201d politics\u2014dlways holding one\u2019s nose and with the face averted.\u201cPractical\u201d politics were always despised : even in the worst days of Canadian political skulduggery.Naturally we thought the CCF\u2014Canada's new party of political purity\u2014was above all that sort of thing.Certainly it was, in its infancy, with the Rev.J.8S.Woodsworth as its Jeader\u2014a man who refused to compromise with principle at any time.But it has fallen low.David Lewis, secretary of the party.is unquestionably one of its dominant figures.We doubt whether any man in Canada, aside perhaps from Eugene Forsey and Professor Frank Scott, has as great an influence upon the CCF and its ment at this Montreal convention which we doubt was ever equalled in the wickedest of the wicked old days.The CCF party stands for socialism \u2014social control of everything.But on this the convention sought to pussy-foot.Its resolution touching socialization of industry did not propose to move fast enough for Harold Winch, British Columbia's CCF leader.Nor for convention chairman, Colin Cameron, of Courtenay, B.C.Both of them instarftly demanded stronger medicine.Pvt, John P.Sovinski, was bom in

Allies Informed of Japanese Territory CANBERRA\u2014(CP)\u2014In the dark days of 1942 when the Japanese were advancing towards Australia, Port Moresby was the most bombed town in the Pacific.But every time the Japs came over they found something there to meet them, planes from the tiny air force stationed there or vigorous anti- aireraft fire, arguing foreknowledge.Today the Japanese are a long way from Moresby, and the story of the street mission of a young Australian can safely be told.Ten years ago applications were invited for cadets in the New Guinea Administration; 200 applied, 10 were chosen, including Leigh Vial, of Camberwell, Victoria.Soon after he was appointed district officer for Rabaul, Wewak, Madang, Wau and Lae.He is said to have been the first white man to cross the Finis- terre Ranges and to climb Mount Wilhelm.Vial was still at Salamaua when the Japs came, and he led a large party of men of the Royal Australian Air Force to a secret emergency landing ground.They were flown to Australia.Vial enlisted in the Air Force.Pilot Officer Vial, on his own suggestion, set out from Port Mores- by with two native boys, radio equipment and provisions for six months, on a secret mission.Several days out, he dismissed these boys and engaged another boy, through whom there would be no danger of information leaking.With his provisions and a radio set he took up a station in the hills overlooking Lae and Salamaua, where the Japanese were entrenched.For the ensuing long lonely months he spent most of his time in treetops peering down on those enemy strongholds, watching through binoculars to detect the least sign of Japanese aerial activity below.\u2018When a flight of bombers took off from the aerodrome beneath, his clear, carried through the roar of the bombers\u2019 engines, giving details of the number of aircraft, the type, height, time and direction of flying.At Port Moresby a man sitting in a hut with earphones clamped over his head, immediately picked up and delivered the message, and the defences jumped Into action.Enemy Mystified Day and night Vial was \u201con the air\u201d.Vial\u2014\"Golden Voice Vial\u201d as he came to be called\u2014became a byword back in the garrison town as Moresby then was.As the Japanese surged across the Owen Stanleys between him and his base, he still carried on.The enemy was mysti- fled by this voice, seemingly from heaven, which ruined their best-laid plans time and again.Movés in New Guinea Once they flew over and took photographs of his position, but he immediately collected his gear and moved to another locality.He did that several times, and thwarted the Japs every time.One day his boy took a peep through his binoculars, When Vial used them again he caught a tropical rash which almost blinded him.It covered his body and reduced his strength until he was as weak as a baby.He could not climb trees, so he lay on the ground and watched the sky through his shaving mirror.The reports still went through.At the end of his six months he reported back.In Australia he investigated equipment for airmen likely to be forced down in the Jungle, and recommended a parachute which could be used as a tent, also a special bush knife.He was awarded the American D.S.C.Now a flight lieutenant, he left on another secret mission.The plane in which he was travelling was shot down in New Guinea by Japanese anti-aircraft fire.Vial was killed.Howick Mr.and Mrs.J.A.Chalmers, of Regina, spent Tuesday of the past week at the home of Mr.Thomas Elliot and sisters.Mrs.Wm.Marshall of
