Mr.A.Crutchfield, and the hats to Mr.W.G.Gibson and Mr.Wm.R.Wilson.Mayor A.Crutchfield in calling the meeting to order, explained the purpose of same and said he was proud that the people of Hin- chinbrook had done so well in all Victory Loan campaigns.He called upon Dr.J.E, Caza to address the gathering.Dr.Caza congratulated the people of Hinchinbrook on their splendid response to the loan campaign and spoke of the impression it would make upon the boys returning home.e people of the municipality had made a fine contribution to vie- tory all through the war.He thanked them and said it gives me great pleasure to present this plaque, a symbol of the Eighth Victory Loan, to the Mayor and citizens of the Municipality of Hinchinbrook, in acknowledgment of the fact that they subscribed 147.8% of their objective in the purchase of Victory Bonds.The Mayor on behalf of the councillors and citizens of Hin- - chinbrook thanked Dr.Caza and the Huntingdon County War Finance Committee for the plaque and said it would find a position of honour where all the people would see it.He was proud of the support the citizens had given to the purchase of Victory Bonds and of this acknowledgment of the efforts of the salesmen and of the people in the Eighth Victery Loan campaign.Mr.George Dixon, on behalf of the Publicity Committee of the Huntingdon County War Finance Committee, was called upon to make the presentation of the hats to the two salesmen, Messrs.W.R.Wilson and W.G.Gibson, who had worked hard to contact all sons likely to be buying Bonds in the campaign.In presenting a hat to each one, Mr.Dixon addressed them as follows: \u201cIt is a pleasure for me to be here today and to have the privilege of presenting a prize to each of the Victory Loan salesmen in the Township of Hin- chinbrook.\u201cI would like to explain that these prizes are given by the members of the Central Hun- tingdon County Committee as a personal effort to encourage salesmen to strive to obtain the maximum number of applications from the citizens of their respective districts.They realize, of course, that in giving a prize \u201c9 a salesman, they are also honouring the citizens from whom that salesman obtains his applications.\u201cAnd now, to you Mr.Gibson and Mr.Wilson, I would like to say that you both richly deserve this award.You have both been conscientious workers in all Victory Loans and this time you have placed the Township of Hinchinbrook at the top in the County of Huntingdon.\u201cI, therefore, on behalf of the Central Committee have great pleasure in presenting to each Hats in Recognition of Services of you\u2014a hat.We hope, in wearing these hats, you will realize that you and the people of your Township have made a contribution to Canada -and its great war effort\u201d.Mr.W.G.Gibson re to Mr.Dixon and thanked for the hat presented to him.He congratulated Mr.J, Church and Mr.Grandchamp on their organization work in connection with the various loan cam .He also felt that Mr.Wilson had much to do with the results obtained and if he had two heads, he would gladly offer him the two hats as he felt he deserved them.He thanked all those who had purchased bonds as it was their purchases that had brought the results that were being recognized\u2019 today.This district has always given ready response in the matter of buying bonds.Mr.Wm.R.Wilson thanked Mr.Dixon for the hat and said he was very pleased to be associated with the two Victory Loan organizers, Messrs.Church and Grandchamp, and their organiz- Ing ability had done much not only in this district, but in others also.In the Municipality of Hinchinbrook the people were bond-minded and conscious of the value of buying bonds both for themselves and for the coun- Ty.Mr.J.Church was called on for a few remarks and he congratulated the people of Hin- chinbrook on their activity in buying bonds.The salesmen had done exceedingly well in this loan and they had also distinguished themselves in previous loans.The municlpality had been consistent in loans and that is why they had achieved such magnificient results.He reminded the people that another Victory Loan would come in the fall, He also stressed the value of buying \u2018bonds, both to themselves and to their country.Mayor Crutchfield thanked the peopie for their splendid response in purchasing Eighth Victory Loan Bonds and said he was very happy that it was this municipality that had received the plaque.The singing of the National Anthem brought the proceedings to a close.On the back of the plaque the following wording explains the reason for presentation and the objectives obtained, etc.: This Shield, received by the County of Huntingdon, in acknowledgment of participation in Canada\u2019s Eighth Victory Loan, is

Victory\u201d { Legion Dominion Day Event Contest For Plans Made For Incorporation of Victory Celebration With Dominion Day Observance A very enthusiastic and well attended meeting of the Chateau- guay-Huntingdon Branch of the Canadian Legion and the Ladies Auxillary was held on Thursday evening, at the Masonic Hall.The purpose of the meeting was to discuss jointly, a plan for a suitable celebration of Dominion Day In Huntingdon and to raise funds for the Fields of Honour In the Prot- astant and Roman Catholic Ceme- terles.It is proposed to place suitable markers in each of these Fields 30 that it may be known for what ¥ purpose they stand.The ful pur- | 4 chase price has yet to be paid and this is to be included in the plan.It is felt that with the idea in mind, there should be sufficlent funds raised to have a surplus to apply on a permanent Memorial as a recognition of the present war.The plan for Dominion Day is to incorporate a celebration of the Victory in Europe and thus it is proposed to make the day one that will be remembered for a long time to come.It was decided that a monster parade would be organized in which entries of decorated cars, bicycles, trucks, floats, school units, organizations throughout the county and others who may wish to enter, start off the day's pr at about 1 o'clock.This parade will Igo to the Fair Grounds after traversing a specified route, where the various entries are to be judged and prizes awarded.Following this it is proposed to.have Several baseball and softball games and small sports.Refreshments will be available on the grounds and there are to be several side amusements.The day will wind up with a big street dance at night in the centre of the town.Many novelties are promised for the dance at night and prizes will be awarded to dancers during the per- tod.It was also proposed to have seats at the dance for those who wish to sit and listen to the music and these are to be sold for a nominal fee.The orchestra stand be in such a position that all may hear the music and a sound system will be used to carry it to all parts of the enclosure.For the weeks previous to the great event, tickets will be sold bearing a coupon good for a certain number of votes in connection with a \u201cMiss Victory\u201d contest which will be organized in the county and include Ormstown and Howick districts.For this purpose the Legion Members are asking that groups of persons in the following districts sponsor one young lady from each of the districts to compete for the title of Miss Victory: Huntingdon, Hemmingford.Havelock, Franklin, Hinchinbrook.Elgin, St.Anicet, Dundee, Godmanchester, Ste.Barbe, Ormstown and Howick.The coupons on the tickets being sold.will carry a value of 50 votes which can be credited to any of the candidates in the running that the purchaser wishes them to go to.It will be up to the sponsors of each candidate to see that their choice gets full support in the matter of these votes.The tickets will sell for 25c each or five for one dollar.They will be numbered and will entitle the purchaser to enter the Fair Grounds and also to take part in a draw for a chest of Community silverware which will take place at the dance.This prize will be sold to the person holding the number drawn, for the sum of $1.00.So you will be well advised to hold on to your tickets as they will be valuable to you.No one will be admitted to the Fair Grounds without a ticket, and tickets will be sold at the gate.It is also proposed to provide the winning candidate, who will be \u201cMiss victory\u201d, with a suitable costume in which she will be dressed when the announcement has been made of the winner, and remain in it during the rest of the evening.The winner of the title will also recelve a suitable gift and the runner-up who will be the lady-in-walting to Miss Victory, will also receive a gift.The announcement of the winner in this contest will be made some time during the evening.The credit coupons for the votes are to be handed in to the Miss Victory Committee whose names follow at the end of this article, or to the salesperson selling the ticket.They

of being the first Canadian Ayrshire breeder to have Canadian-bred Ayrshire cattle entered in the Ayrshire Cattle Society Herd Book of Great Britain will go 'to the firm of P.D.McArthur & Son, Cherry Bank Farm, Howick, Que.The same also as regards being the first shipment of Canadian Ayrshires to Great Britain since pre-war days.Quite a few Ayrshire cows, of what might be called the commercial purebred type, were shipped to Scotland and England in pre-war days but whilst all registered Canadian Ayrshires must trace, on both sides of their pedigree, to the Ayrshire Society's Herd Book, that book was closed until recently to any but Scottish, English or Irish-bred Ayrshires.When Wing Commander A.B.Matthews of the R.C.A.F.and Mrs.Matthews were in Canada a few months ago they were so impressed with the Cherry Bank herd of P.D.At the weekly meeting of were promoted that will interest our youths and the parents alike.In the first place it was agreed that the Club should place $50 at the disposal of Rotarian Hector Provost and the sports committee to have a softball league organized amongst the scholars attending Huntingdon schools.Mr.Provost stated that at St.Joseph's school he was informed three teams could be entered, and it is more than -probable as many.or more can be organized from the High School.The Rotary Club subscribed the $50 to the cause with which Mr.Provost stated he would Arthur Square where the games would be played and at the same time use some of the money as suitable prizes.The second matter before the Club was that of having physical examinations accorded boys and girls attending our school, with a particular view to combatting T.B.developing amongst our rising generation.Dr.Clouston stated that the matter had been under consideration by the local doctors and they were agreed that a plan to be followed at the start should be first to have the Rotary Club Plans to Assist Youth of the Community Softball League to be Organized\u2014Children

$1.50 per person so examined, stated Dr.Clouston.Dr.Clouston suggested that the principals of schools be interviewed and if they wished certain children to be examined now such would be done and that the general examination be made in September, when the schools re-open for the year 1845-46.The Rotary Club will pay the expense of such examinations.The records of such examinations would be recorded and could then be followed up from year to year.With a new lot of scholars being examined cach year, it would not be long before the youth of the entire community would be examined, and if correction is needed the parents will be advised as to what should be done for the good of their children.Dr.Clouston stated that each child should be given a second examination at the nge of 15 to 17 years of age.The Rotary Club are going to be responsible for paying the cost of heving the students of Huntingdon exumined for this year, and if possible would like to extend their efforts in this direction so as to ultimately take in the entire County.The number of children in the County in this age bracket being considered for examination would number 300 or more.Final results in West are as follows:

the results obtained are really much better because the minimum amount, of the objective was raised in loan to almost the amount obtained as a sum total in the last loan.That is the minimum amount of the objective in the last loan was $677,000, and the amount raised was $779,750 which was $15.17% of the objective.In the present loan it is only 2.12% less in the amount of percentage of objective, but the amount raised is $818,850, $39.- ak Ormstown M The district of Beauharnois Live Stock Show which will re-open its gates to the public at Ormstown June 6 to 9 this year after a lapse of the five war years, came into existence in 1910.It was brought into being by a group of the leading live stock men of thal day in the Ormstown district.headed by Dr.D.McEachren, a former Veterinary Director General, who had founded a Clydesdale stud at nearby Ormsby Grange.The first secretary was Dr Archie McCormick.D.V.S.Not having uny suitable accommodation, the first exhibition was held in the skating rink.with the horses atabled round the village, \u2018This continued until 1912, when the show was held in the stadium, which still stands a monument to the men with the courage and foresight to build it.It is worthy of note that the live stock men of thaf time were men of courage and vision, dipping deeply into their own pockets to finance thelr show.It is doubtful if there ls another exhibition In Canada that has grown to national importance with as little assistance from public funds.This was not accomplished without the usual number of griefs and disappointments.When the new stadium was ready for the roof, a storm levelled the entire steel frame, and during the early years the cattle were stabled with the sky for a roof.Rubber Shortage Ormstown has not always been favored with ideal show weather.On one occasion all the merchants in Ormstown and Huntingdon were completely sold out of rubber boots.One of the ideas of the early promoters of the show was to stage a live stock sale in connection with the show.This was at first a great success, but due to lack of time was dropped.But it is just possible that this feature might be renewed with advantage to the district.Among the officers of the show in the early years are many names of men who were landmarks in Canadian live stock history: Robert Ness, 8r., Neil Sangster, James Bry- son, Alex.Younie, W.F.Stephèns.and still living are: George Baird and D.J.Greig.respectively first and second vice-presidents when the show was organized.Pays Tribute Among those still living, but now not able to take an active part, are two men who contributed much to Ormstown show, R.R.Ness, of Howick, who served faithfully as president over a long period, and Peter Dickson, who supervised much of the construction work.Among those still active, the sen- for members of the board, are W.G.McGerrigle, the efficient and retiring secretary whose work behind the scenes did much to build up the show, and H.H.Chambers, the perennial vice-president (because he refuses to go any higher).The genial vice-president 18 an untiring worker, and has perhaps devoted more free time to the organization than any other member.The other members of the present board are: D.E.Black, M.P.; Douglas Ness, Alfred Greig, and Gilbert McMillan, president.It was a great disappointment to all when on the eve of the 1940 exhibition, even after the prize lists had been distributed, word was recelved that no exhibition grants would be paid.No War Show Faced with the commitment of a prize list of over $13,000, and no special means having been devised for raising the money, the show was abandoned.Continuing through this Henry Cassidy, Sweet childish days that were as long As twenty days are now Ae EIGHT PAGES Final Results For Eighth Loan in Huntingdon County All Townships Pass Objectives to Reach a Grand Total of $818,850 100 more than in the last loan.This is a very e - ing and speaks well for the county and the attempt of the people to express thanks for victory through the purchase of Victory Bonds, During the final week four additional salesmen reached their objectives in both number of sales and amount, namely: Anselme Latu- lipe, Walter Smith and Stan.alsh.Thus it is that in all townships the objectives were su , whereas in the last loan all but one their ob- ectives.In all ways the Eighth

directors, due to the fact that in 1940 à complete set of stubles has just been finished that are among the best in the country, and can accommodate close on one thousand animals.The organization, however, has always heen maintained, and at the annual meeting last November the directors were instructed to proceed with the show unless the war pletur became worse.All Are Keen That, the spirit that had made Ormstown show possible in the first place was not yet dead was evidenced by the fact that when a meeting of the various committees was called in February, with all roads practically tied up, over 30 members found thelr way to the meeting.Faced still with a definite refusal of any Federal support, the directors had to make the declsion of either reducing the prize ist or of taking means to raise the funds otherwise, A compromise was arrived at by slightly reducing the prize list (it is still over $11,000) and then by taking steps to raise the difference by increasing the admission fees, and providing entertainment to draw a large attendance.Horse racing wlll be carried on ns before, and there is evidently no scarcity of trotters in the country.Wallace Bros., the second largest outdoor enteftalners in Canada, heve been engaged to provide the outdoor shows and midway, and a group of talented performers engaged for an afternoon and evening performance.Big Night Show One of the main entertainment features, however, will be the evening horse show, and this promises to he the greatest ever seen at ormstown, To give the horse show official rating membership was taken in the American Horse Show Association.The showing will be made and Judged under its rules.One of the best judges in the United States has been engaged te make the awards, At this daje sufficient entries are in to definitely assure the success of this department and the best stables in Eastern Canada are represented, It now remains for the other live stock men to see that Ormstown 8how gets away to a proper start.With the relationship that has in the past existed between the exhibitors and management, they have no fear on this score.This is essentially a live stock show and whatever money it can make, the live stock men can depend on seeing it reflected in next year\u2019s prize list.Little Overhead No major exhibition in Canada is operated on a smaller overhead.Outside of the meagre allowance for the secretary, the entire work of administration is voluntary and free.Seldom is seen a finer spirit of co-operation than 18 evidenced by the men behind the show.wn has recently organized a Board of Trade.This board is making the case of visitors who wish to stay overnight one of its projects, and also doing everything to boost the show.The management of the show,

Inc.Huntingdon, Que.ADAM L.SELLAR, President and Editor éubscription Rates - .- .- $50 Year Agents: A.Beaudin & Son, Ormstown, Que.This nes:spaper is a member of the Weekly Newspaper Advertising Bureau Canadian Weekly Newwpapers' Association Ontario-Quebec Nevispaper Association Huntingdon, Wed., May 23rd, 1945 Dominion Day to be Celebrated OR many years Dominion Day has not been celebrated in Huntingdon by any display of sports or entertainment such as other towns have used to mark the day.The members of the Canadian Legion and the Ladies\u2019 Auxiliary of the Canadian Legion met on Thursday evening to discuss plans for a suitable celebration of Dominion Day which will be observed on Monday.July 2nd.this year.They decided to incorporate a victory celebration with the observance of Canada's Dominion holiday.in view of the fact that no celebration was held here on V-E Day.Incidentally it was decided to use the proceeds obtained from events to be staged.for purchasing the two Fields of Honour.one in the Protestant Cemetery and the other in the Roman Catholic Cemetery and to place some suitable marker in each cf these plots.It is also hoped to have an amount over that required for the above purpose, which can be added to the Memorial Fund.This fund is for the purpose of erecting a permanent Memorial in the near future.It will be seen that while the celebration of Dominion Day will provide the people of Huntingdon County with a day of amusement and relaxation, it is hoped that the proceeds will provide for recognition of the services of Veterans of the last war and of this.It is therefore hoped that the people throughout the county will get behind the plans in a whole-hearted manner and see that the best support is accorded them.No more worthwhile cause could be supported than those mentioned, already two local veterans have been buried in the Field of Honopr at the Protestant Cemetery and it is only fitting that these two special burial grounds for veterans be suitably marked and kept up.There is no question that this County needs a suitable permanent memorial as a marker to cherish the memory of those of our citizens who gave their all and to honour those who served in the present war.Already a certain sum has been laid aside by the Legion for a Memorial purpose and it is proposed that any remaining from the proceeds after the Fields of Honour have been looked after.will go toward the Memorial Fund.Thus when the plans go ahead for this Dominion Day celebration the members of the Legion hope that the public will remember the cause for which the plan is being sponsored and support it to the utmost of their ability.Many inducements are being offered for the public to take part in the celebration and in so doing they will be helping the cause along.It is just another way in which we all can offer our thanks for the Victory in Europe.Interest in Community Affairs N co-operation with the parents, doctors and schools, the Huntingdon Rotary Club is organizing a series of medical examinations for school children in certain age classes.This scheme is not to interfere with the rights of parents and their children, but merely as an assistance in determining the physical condition of the school children with a view to developing a strong and healthy group of boys and girls in the community.Primarily the examination is to discover early signs of tuberculosis and if possible to stop it from developing.Incidentally, through the examination it may be possible to detect other defects unknown to the parents or to the children, that can be remedied before serious trouble occurs.The examinations will only be undertaken if it is the wish of the parents, and no cost will be borne by the parents, as the club is looking after this also.It is considered likely that the pupils in about grade eight are the ones who will be examined in the fall before school opens, and each year as the new group comes along they in turn will be examined.The next class will be in the 15 to 17-year-olds, after which there is comparative safety from developing T.B.The periods mentioned are considered the danger periods.to In addition to the above idea, the Rotary Club is working on a project to provide the boys and girls with some healthy recreation and a place where they can go and enjoy a few games.A sum of money was voted for this purpose at the last meeting of the club, and the idea is to be carried out in a very short time.It is proposed to have teams from each of the two schools in town, made up into leagues and for the games to take place at Prince Arthur Square.A backstop is to be built there and practice games will start almost immediately.This latter idea could very well lead to the establishment of a properly equipped and supervised playing centre, where the children could go and enjoy themselves in safety and where the parents would know where to find them.It would help keep children off the streets where danger lurks at every moment, yet there is no other place for the children to play.If it were properly supervised it would keep the children in check when they became too noisy and would prevent injuries happening if the children became too rough or careless.The games centre is a start, may we hope it will lead to the greater development as time goes on.The members of the Rotary Club are to be congratulated on taking an interest in the children of the town as too often these are the forgotten ones.It must be remembered that the children of today are the citizens of tomorrow, if we want them to take an interest and a pride in the affairs of our town, we must give them something that will make them think it worthwhile.At the moment there is little in Huntingdon which caters to the youth of the district, and until now there has been no one other than the schools who would interest themselves in such matters.The one treat of being able to attend the picture shows has been denied them, there are no sporting activities or recreation centres for the boya and girls to join in with.So good luck to the Rotary Club in the start they have made and let us hope that it will not stop there.Still a Matter of Doubt THE actual Russion feeling with regard to working out the destiny of the various parts of Europe which have been liberated, is still very much in doubt and constantly irritating problems are being thrust before the other members of the United Nations by Russia.The Polish question looms large among the problems that have arisen and there is also the matter of Marshal Tito's demands for Trieste and the occupation of same by the Marshal's troops.Recent announcement says the Russians have named a burgomaster for Berlin.It seems that in all cases it is Russia that is doing the naming of who is to do this.and what form this should take, or that take.It also seems apparent that the other partners are not acquainted with what Russia is doing and who she wants to look after the various parts, until they have been appointed, Then there seems to be no way of getting around the situation except to accept it.How long is this going to last before real trouble develops?A further meeting of the Big Three is sought at this moment and it has been announced that it will be up to Marshal Stalin to do a little travelling and meet the other two in London, England.It has been said that the Marshal has no need to stay in Moscow to conduct the war effort now.so he should be free to travel, the people of Britain feel that Prime Minister Churchill has done his share of travelling to meet Mr.Stalin, and Mr.Stalin should come to London and receive the thanks of his admirers.The United States and Great Britain are not satisfied with the explanation of why the Polish Delegates from London, were arrested and are being held.They are not satisfied with the attitude of Russia in not allowing representatives in Rumania and other parts occupied by the Russians.These territories were supposed to be open to representatives of any of the Big Three.Further these matters were supposed to have been straightened out at the Yalta Conference to the satisfaction of all concerned.Now Russia is demanding that the Yalta agreement be lived up to and the other two are demanding the same thing.What is wrong?Have the people been kept in the dark on what has been going at these conferences in which Russia has sat in?It certainly looks like it.It also looks as if a showdown with Russia is in the making, when and if the Big Three do meet.With circumstances as they are there should be a definite understanding among these three great nations as to what they intend to do, who is to do it and how it is to be done.When that has been decided, it should be carried out to the letter and according to the plan agreed upon.If length of service in this war means anything, then Great Britain and her commonwealth of nations should have as much to say as anyone.Russia has only defended her own territory so far, and a great deal of this has been accomplished through the help of lend-lease material unloaded at Murmansk at a great risk and with a heavy cost of lives of British and American sailors and airmen.The British and American airmen have been mainly responsible for the crushing of Germany from the air and especially Berlin.There has been very little mention of Russian alr raids on this part of enemy territory.Admittedly Russia has suffered at the hands of the Germans and came near defeat at those same hands, but she has not attained the right to make all the say as to what shall be done now that the war is over.The situation may just as well be straightened out now as any other time for if it is allowed to drift along, it could easily be the reason for another war in 15 or 20 years or so.It is time that Great Britain and the United States took a firm stand and made their demands just as clear to Russia as Russia makes hers to them.The programme of assistance that these two nations have given to Russia is nothing to be ashamed of, it is something to be proud of.It might almost be said that more men from these two countries have died for Russia, than Russians have died for them.So why not let us frankly discuss the whole matter and have our outspoken say just as much as Russia.We have always.presented the soft side of our nature, the appeasing side, but we shall find that in dealing with Russia we should be prepared to present the strong and determined side and prove that we can be tough if the situation demands.Inflation Already Started in Reich ERHAPS there was no truer forecast of the defeat of Germany than was contained in a report from Stockholm by a Swedish newspaper man, Olle Ollen, of a new and rising inflation of Germany money.He told of an Incident on a ferry crossing from Copenhagen to Malmo illustrating this new trend.\u201cAt the currency desk I said, \u2018I still have a few reichsmarks\u2019, and the German official replied, \u2018If you have any left, throw them overboard; I don't want them\u2019.\u201d German shopkeepers were already asking for \u201ctrade goods\u201d instead of marks.They would accept anything rather than money\u2014 watches, furniture, clothing, shoes, trinkets and keepsakes.A Hamburg doctor recently gave a gold watch for three loaves of bread without batting an eye.He had three hungry children at home.A loaf of rye bread on the black market cost 150 marks.(The pre-war value of a mark was 40 cents).\u201cThe sudden and drastic reduction in value of German money\u201d, Mr.Ollen says, \u201cwas one of the principal factors in the \u2018doomsday feeling\u2019 that swept Germany\u201d.Thus does Germany reap another grim harvest of inflation to remind her of the one that followed the last war, when a man in Berlin papered his house with billion mark bills, and it took 400 printing presses, working day and night, to turn out enough money for the next day's business.Children\u2019s school fees were paid in coal instead of with money.A pound of sugar cost 74 million marks, and the cost of living was 1,247 times higher than in pre-war days.A German mark was worth 222 trillionths of an American cent, and four million people died of starvation.Is Germany headed for this again?How thankful we should be here in Canada that the little old dollar bill is still worth more than 80 cents of its pre-war value, and that our currency is steady and reliable, THE HUNTINGDON GLEANER The stories which the occasional escapee had told aboût conditions in - concentration camps in Germany are now being confirmed in all.their gruesome detail as liberated prisoners return to their homelands.Recent arrivals in Paris have included Father Leloir, of the White Fathers Order, who was a chaplain with the Ardennes maquis until his arrest in May, 1944; Remy Roure, a young newspaperman; and Julien Cain, former director for the French National Library, and former secre- tary-general of the Ministry of Information.Father Leloir, who was tortured, sentenced to death, and sent to the Buchenwald Camp with 1200 other captives, to be worked and beaten to death, described his experiences to a representative of the Catholic publication \u201cLa Croix\u201d in France: Only Forty-Five Still Alive \u201cOut of the 1200 captives who set out with me on that ghastly journey.I know of only 45 who are alive today.All the others were killed by the S.8., who are experts at murder with flame-throwers and grenades.\u201cA typical example of Nazi punishment was inflicted on a German official from Weimar.He was chained to a dog kennel and made to wear a dog collar.Held in leash by a Nazi, he had to walk on all fours and bark whenever an SS.went by.This man was forbidden to use his hands when he ate, and had to put his face into the bowl of food.\u201cAnother Prencn priest who was interned with me was forced to dissect corpses in a research laboratory, It was here that he discovered the body of Princess Mafalda of Hess, eldest daughter of the King of Italy.\u201cHuman beings were vivisected in laboratory 46.Horses and guinea pigs were too expensive, but Nazi doctors could satisfy their \u201cscientific curiosity\u201d with an unlimited supply of men and women.Prisoners were given numbers and lined up before the ghastly laboratory.A loud speaker would call out the numbers and each man and woman in turn would go in to the dissecting table.Many\u2019 prisoners were inoculated with the germs of various diseases, particularly typhus.Each month from 100 to 200 persons succumbed to these diseases and were disposed of in the crematorium\u201d.Remy Roure was arrested by the Gestapo in October, 1943.Although seriously wounded, he was sent to Germany, where he lived through the hell of the Auschwitz Camp.He was later transferred to Buchenwald where he spent several months.\u201cBoth in Auschwitz and Birkenau there were seven crematoria,\u201d he said, \u201cand each had its special gas chamber.Buchenwald had a siggle huge crematorium.It was a sprawling mass of blackened bricks, with a square tower dominating the whole camp.This building was the very symbol and purpose of Buchenwald and other similar camps.\u201cBut even these pictures of horror were brightened by the heroism of our fellow prisoners.I shall never forget Abbé Tanguy who was a magnificent example of patience, fortitude, and human kindness.He was with us when we were stripped of our clothes and left in the cold for hours on end.He gave his place to a sick comrade who did not have enough room to lie down, and went over to sit by the door in an icy draft.He caught pneumonia and died, but he will be remembered as a hero of whom France may justly be proud.\u201cAt the time of the Allied advance, the S.8.succeeded in sending east twenty-five thousand prisoners.We hope that their liberation has only been delayed .But the Allied Governments must hurry.Most of these prisoners are dying of wounds, diseases or starvation.In spite of all that can be done\u2014and the Americans have been doing a great deal\u2014each day lost represents so many lives lost; each day gained WOMEN MUST WORK BUT NOT SO HARD] ! .French Prisoners Describe Buchenwald - Camp of Living Death When Released means saved\u201d.that more lives will

bbb errr dtd * THE WEEK AT * OTTAWA Ottawa, (CP)\u2014The first large- scale removal of wartime restrictions has resulted in the lifting of a number of controls over the manufacture of consumer goods, elimination of the rationing of inner tubes, an easing in tire rationing and provision for extended pleasure travel in the United States.Just how soon it will be before the removal of restrictions on manufacturing will result in goods reappearing on store shelves remains to be seen, but the officials who took the controls off were careful to warn the public that it did not mean they would be able to go out and buy a vacuum cleaner, for instance, in the next week or so.Labor and materials are the factors that will hold back civilian production and war requirements will still have top priority.The main effect of the 32 production orders lifted by the Prices Board is to open the way for manufacturers to resume civilian output when war needs taper off.The Prices Board is putting emphasis on the necessity of maintaining its price stabilization pol- jcy in the immediate postwar period and to help keep prices down special war taxes on a number of items \u2014cameras, radios, and electrical appliances,\u2014have already been removed.Manufacturers will be expected to put goods back on the market at the same price they sold tubes, a plateau swept by all the == = for in 1841,

great concourse | of people.John Bracken \u2014 the Farmer \u2014 was accepting the leadership of a great resurgent people\u2019s party.In ringing tones he was speaking of \u201cThe People\u2019s Charter\u201d.And the soul- searching sincerity of this man of the soil, with his vision of Canada, of Canadians and the lies within our grasp\u201d du - \u201cworld of plenty that was deeply moving.Picture the background of this man \u2014 this moment.John Bracken, the farm boy, on his father\u2019s farm in Ontario, milking, haying, carrying in the wood, plowing .then young Bracken, honours student at the Ontario Agricultural College going to Manitoba as representative of the Department of Agriculture .on to Saskatchewan as Superintendent of Fairs and Farmers\u2019 Institutes and Secretary of the Provincial Livestock Association .then, later, John Bracken, author, writing books about farms, farming, farmers .And now years later, in Winnipeg, John Bracken, the farmer, is speaking of \u201cthe right of farmers and other primary producers to a fair share of the nation's income.\u201d Notice the simplicity of the language he uses, :lear, concise \u2014 sincere.\"During the last decade,\u201d he is saying, \u201cfarm income fell to such a low average as to become of very great concern in our Canadian economy.It is the responsi- hility of the nation to see that this great inequity shall not be perpetuated.\u201d Then, suddenly his voice rises, becomes even clearer, more incisive.\u201c1 may say guile frankly that if it had not been for that plank in your platform which pro- J ides for a square deal for agriculture, I would not ve here.Two years later, in Alliston, Ontario, \u2014 again the same simplicity, the moving sincerity.\u201cI am an agrarian,\u201d said John Bracken, \u201cand T am a Canadian .who seeks to correct the major social injustice of our day \u2014 the unfairly small share of the national income that goes to farmers and farm women and farm workers.\u201d Then, with a statesman\u2019s enlargement of vision, he added, \u201cWhen the injustice to the farmer is removed, the economy of Canada as a whole will be strengthened.\u201d No one could be less parochial in his outlook \u2014 more deeply concerned with national welfare than John Bracken, the farmer who embarked twenty years a on a career so successful as to be without recedent in contemporary political history within the British Commonwealth of Nations.B-2 Publlsbed hy the Progressive Conservative Association, Ottawa.Know John Bracken \u2014 the Progressive
