See Town All Confusion
If No Organized Planning
For Expansion To Come
An organized town planning program for Ingersoll was
urged by the Chamber of Commerce in a letter to town council
Monday. The letter, signed by Leigh Snider, secretary, warned that all would be confusion if some systematic planning
were not done now to take care of present expansion in the
town, and undoubted expansion that would follow completion
of the Thames Valley projectThe Chamber of Commerce letter, on which no council
action was taken, reads:
“Since 1945, The Ingersoll Chamber of Commerce hasbeen pressing the Town Council to undertake town planning
so there would be some overall scheme to work to in the de
velopment of the Town.
“It was urged that a town plan should precede the installation of the sewage system. The Council felt otherwise.
Since the time when the sewerage installation was in its early
stages, many important developments have taken place and
are taking place in the town and The Ingersoll Chamber ofCommerce submits that the sewerage project and other public
undertakings are daily demonstrating the fact that the lack
of a proper town survey and plan is costing the town money
and adding to the confusion.“We understand that several years ago Council passed a
resolution in favour of a zoning bylaw, but so far as it is
known nothing has been done in this regard. This is a most
essential feature of town planning and has an important bearing on our industrial development. New industrialists will not
be attracted to a town where home builders have no protect
ion. A man does not want to erect a good home and then have
someone come along and build a shack next door.“The Thames River improvement is now taking place.
Much valuable land formerly useless will be made available
for other purposes: Is there to be no plan to determine the
proper uses of this land? Are we going to use it for industrial purposes, or for park purposes, or for residential pur
poses? Or are we just going to have another area of jumbled
developments which will be an eyesore to the town and the
worst advertising, apart from our roads, we can possibly get?Now The Ingersoll Chamber of Commerce submite that
if we had been working to a plan the town would not be in the
difficulty it is today. The sewers, the hospital, the public
school addition, the new Collegiate area school and othervarious developments would all have been contemplated and
taken into consideration and we could have proceeded accord
ing to our needs.
"Last year the question of town planning again came tothe front. Conferences were held with the Mayor and a
representative of the department of planning and develop
ment The Ingersoll Chamber of Commerce passed the follow
ing resolution which is hereby submitted to the Council of theTown of Ingersoll for its consideration and action‘That the Town Council for 1949 be asked to request
the Minister of Planning and Development to define
and name a planning area including the Town ofIngersoll and that if other municipalities are in
cluded with the town, then the town be named as the
designated municipality in accordance with Section
2 of The Planning Act, 1946.’“The Ingersoll Chamber of Commerce strongly urges
that this resolution be acted upon. It is felt that the longer it
is left the more entangled conditions will be. The financial
obligations are small when considered in the light of savingsthat will be brought about.
“Ingersoll should develop industrially, residentially and
municipally according to a well ordered plan."

Mike, Nifty Get The Bird
Mike McMillan and Nifty Nafto-
Jin of Jack’s Store are pretty carefulthese days when they indulge in playful banter with small boys.
The other day a lady entered thestore, with a small son, and as thesmall son prowled hither and thitherabout the store, the mother explainedhow she managed to keep her boy
operating on a low head of steamout on the farm. She got him interested, she said, in the fascinatingpastime of trapping sparrows in theChicken coop. He’d scatter feed about
the coop, near the open door, and asthe sparrows gathered, the boy wouldsay shoo, and slam the door, bagginganywhere from none to half a dozensparrows at a shot It did no one any
harm, she said, and kept both Juniorand the sparrows hopping.Mike, who was taking all this inwith just a mild touch of skepticism,decided he’d “carry along with the
story” and offered the gaffer 5 centsfor one live sparrow. Nifty thought hemight as well get in too, so he offeredanother nickel. Mother and the boyleft, and Mike and Nifty promptlyforgot all about it.Well, come next Saturday, in came
a man and a small boy, the boy carrying a shoe box. Mike, figuring someone had a pair of shoes to exchange,smiled politely, said how are you my
little boy and took the box. It didseem a bit light, but then they couldhave been slippers. He opened the box,and—Well, you guessed it—two verylive sparrows. Mike, and Nifty
handed over the dime.

Council’s Not So Impotent
It Has To Be At Mercy
Of Any One Man - Morrison
“No council is so impotent that it must be at the mercy of
one person’s views—no matter who he may be,” declaredCounc. Tom Morrison in council Monday as council over-rode
Mayor Dr. J. G. Murray and approved the Fullerton Construc
tion Co. bid to repair Ingersoll roads battered by the sewer
installation.Work is to get underway to-day, and it is estimated it will
take 6-8 weeks. Charles St. will be the first to be done, then
Canterbury, Hall and Carroll Streets.The heated discussion, admittedly out of order, began
when Mr. Morrison, seconded by Councillor Healy, asked
approval of the finance committee’s report, which recommen
ded acceptance of the Fullerton bid. The company bid $12.50a ton for hot mix paving, to include excavation of the streetwhere necessary and sweeping. The company bid $10.50 for
a warm mix.

Hangs by Arm
30 Feet in Air
As Ladder Gives
Fire Chief Fred Ellis had a narrowescape while investigating a fire inthe roof of the St. Charles hotelyesterday.
He was climbing a ladder to the roofat the back, and had just reached theparapet when the ladder gave way,leaving the chief dangling by onearm 30 feet off the pavement.Russ Nunn, spotting the chief inmidair, quickly connected up theladder and got it up again as thechief’s right arm was beginning toget numb.
"They say I was only up there aminute or so,” said the chief, “but itsure seemed like hours. I -can’t feelanything in my fingers yet”
Mr. Ellis said the two sections ofthe ladder had not been connectedcorrectly and it gave way. The fireburned a hole in the roof.“Boy, another couple of minutes
and he’d have been broken up on thepavement,” said Russ. The chiefweighs over 200 pounds.
Record Cenemony
As Gift Given
Mr. and Mrs. George Nancekivell,
Beachville, were pleasantly sur
prised on their 40th anniversary by
over 40 relatives. Cards and crokin-
ole were played. A recording was
made as a walnut coffee table was
presented to Mr. and Mrs. Nancekivell by two of their grandchildren,Donald and Marion, children of Mr.
and Mrs. Carl Nancekivell. Mr. Wil
bur Nancekivell, the eldest son, acted
as master of ceremonies calling on
different members of the family for
congratulatory speeches. The replaying of the record caused much
laughter. As Mr. and Mrs. Bert
Nancekivell were unable to be present, the recording was taken to their
place later. A message from them
had been recorded earlier in the
evening and came as a surprise dur
ing the replaying of the tpcord.
One of the bride's sisters and her
husband, Mr. T. McLennan, Hanover,
had arrived to spend the day not
knowing it was a special occasion.
Boost Healy, Nunn
Rent, Mayor’s Idea
Mayor Dr. J. G. Murray on Mon
day suggested to town council that
rents charged for space in the market building be boosted. The matterwas left over for discussion.Councillor Lome Healy and Ex
Councillor Russ Nunn pay a totalof $38 a month, council was told.“I wouldn’t think that’s too much,”
said the mayor. “We could have got
more than twice that much before.”
“Call in the rental board," sug
gested Mr. Healy.
“The rental board has no con
trol," said Warwick Marshall, town
solicitor.
“Wouldn’t it be a matter for the
building committee?” asked Mr.
Healy.Councillor Ranger suggested it be Idealt with in committee.
Going To Object
“I’m going to object,” said the mayor.Me too,” chimed in Councillor Kerr.“And me,” added Councillor Eidt.“It’s not fair to the town,” said Mr.Murray. “There are lower tenders.
We’re going to lose $4,000 to$5,000.”“Then I want the ayes and nayesrecorded," said Morrison.
Those voting for the tender were:Councillors Morrison, Healy, Rangerand Worker: those against were,Councillors Kerr and Eidt and Dr.Murray.“It’s not fair by a long shot," reiterated the mayor. /"I wouldn’t vote for this if I didn’tthink it was fair,” stressed CouncillorWurker. “We might save $2,000 tor$3,000 now, but in two or three yearswe’d be repairing it all over again.”Mr. Morrison said he couldn’t und
erstand the mayor’s attitude. Hesaid three contractors had presentedbids and the others just didn’t com
pare. And besides, he added, the Fullerton company had shown great faithand sincerity on previous jobs.
Not Niggardly
“I feel by these people we’ll get thebest job, and also be treated the most
fairly,” he said. “I always spendmoney as though it were my own. Idon’t try to be niggardly.”
“Neither do I, if that’s what you’reinsinuating,” the mayor replied. “Butthis is going to cost the people $5,000or $6,000 more than it should.”“It is not,” retorted Counc. Morrison
“This hot mix is the best you can buy."“Not in my opinion," was the reply.Mayor Murray said as good a job
could be done at the $11.10 tenderand with the 3,500 estimated yards
required, the saving was apparent.He said the prices bid by one company had allegedly been broadcast all
over town, and as a result they hadproffered another bid. Fullerton, hesaid, had come in after the committeemeeting and said he wanted to retender.
“It’s not ethical to go out after
meetings, and ask someone to submitanother bid," said Morrison.
“I didn’t,” retorted the mayor. “Hecame in.”
Council gave third reading to the
bill to raise $135,000 to do the roads.The mayor suggested that Mr. Wash
burn and he could supervise the work.“Perhaps each one of us could put
a day in on it," said Mr. Ranger.

Betty Crawford Is Honored
As Pictures Hang In London
New honors have come to Betty
Crawford, Ingersoll’s librarian, and
painter of note. From the many pai
nters in Western Ontario, Miss Craw
ford, along with two others, has been
invited to show her work in a special
exhibition at the Williams Memorial
Art Museum, London.
The other two painters are George
Eitel, Kitchener, and Clark McDougall,
St Thomas. The special thrve-man
show follows the annual Western Art
League exhibition at which some ofMiss Crawford’s paintings were shown.The exhibition went on view June4, and will continue for about amonth. All works are in water color.Says the Free Press: “Miss Crawford’s unframed pictures are more inthe way of sketches than finishedpictures and they present individualpersonality, fine imagination andsense of beauty combined with good
workmanship. All are studies of treesat various seasons, portraying different qualities and moods, with remarkable success. . .
“Bare tree trunks give desolationto the acene of a street corner in thewinter, with snow marked by carwheels but otherwise showing no sign
of life. Coloring is admirably drabin a subtle way. •'Desolation" is thename given a twisted tre« on * table

Our Town -la Very Lucky
In Teaching Staffs We Have
The people most important in any youngster’s
life are his parents and his school teachers.
Upon them, on pretty well a 50-50 basis, rests
the tremendous responsibility of bringing up
young Canada to be honest intelligent law-abid
ing citizens who will make a rbal contribution to
r their country and to the world.
Ingersoll, we think, should feel themselves
pretty lucky in the teaching staffs they've got.
No community has in its public school, high
school and separate school organizations, teachers
better equipped or more whole-heartedly interest
ed in their pupils than those of Ingersoll. It is a
fact we feel the town’s parents and pupils should
be extremely grateful for.
Of course it is of no use to have enthusiasm if
there is no ability, and certainly no use to
have bags of ability and no enthusiasm.
But Ingersoll’s teaching staffs seem to be more
than amply endowed with these and every other
qualification which go to produce good, solid citi
zenship.
Let’s cite a few results of these qualities. .
Look, for example, at Irfeenoll’s cadet corps.
We saw them inspection and night and they—
boys and girls—were a great tribute to themselves
and the teachers who devoted so much time and
enthusiasm to them. The cadets have since been
judged the best in the area. Such results come
only from inspired leadership, and full co-opera
tion, and having been a pupil once ourselves
we know that pupil enthusiasm only comes when
you like and respect the man—or woman—who
is teaching you.
•Look at the public school’s Empire Day concert.
It was nothing less than wonderful to see and hear
' all those kiddies out there singing and dancing as
though they liked it—and they did like it And
■ think of the hours and hours of work put in by
the principal and his music director and the other
members of the staff to bring about such applause
provoking performance.
Look at the public school magazine, the Bugler,
and the high school magazine, the Volt Both
excellent jobs and interesting to anyone—not
just those connected with the schools concerned.
Hours and hours of leadership and work went
into both. What sort of publication do you think
would result, if the principal just said, okay kids,
you can have a magazine if you want, go ahead—
and then forgot about it Or if, on the other hand,
the principal got all het up about it, but couldn’t
inspire bis pupils.
And <day by day, in every way, you can see
what a great group of teachers we have. One of
Ingersoll's boys is a noted public speaker. The
fact he was encouraged and his interests zeal
ously guarded by his teachers are reasons why.
Two other boys have won a special prize and hon
orable mention in a province-wide music contest
also bringing great honor to the town.
Again, the interest of their teachers can take
a goodly share of the credit.
And so it goes on and on ... in the realm of
music, art, sports, speaking and nearly every
other endeavor. *
We would like to say to Principal J. C. Herbert
and his staff; Principal .A- G. Murray and his
staff, and those at Sacred Heart school—you are
doing a grand job—carry on.
of the North. Its traders have been in daily touchwith the Indians and Eskimos, and the wildernessthey inhabit, for the past 280 years. To tell the
story of the royally chartered company for its
first two centuries is to tell the story of the Can
adian West from 1670 to 1870.
Small wonder, then, that those who guide its
destinies today feel that its operations, past and
present, are worth publicizing. To do this they
have chosen to publish, for all who wish to sub
scribe, a unique magazine, finely printed, with
photo-engravings, the admiration of all who
see them. Between its four-colour covers will be
found articles on travel and transportation, west
ern and northern history, Indians and Eskimos,
outstanding northern men, natural history and
modern developments in the North.
Notable historians and scientists write for The
BEAVER. So do Company employees whose
knowledge of certain sections of the North is un
rivalled. And first-class photographers are per
iodically sent into the wilderness to bring back
exclusive pictures for the delight of THE BEAV
ER’S subscribers.
The additional prestige THE BEAVER has
brought the company no one can measure. But
this 50 page quarterly is received not as a house
organ in the usual sense but as a magazine whose
18,200 readers, 5,000 of them in the United
States, find it an attractive and authoritative
source of information about the Canadian North.
For our money it is one of the finest magazines
published in the world.
Notes on the Editor's Pad -
We’d like to tell you of a little case of mole
hills turning into mountains—right here in Ing
ersoll. Saturday we were busy whipping two of
our children into a state of good humor, when
one of ,our local scouts called to report a man
had just been killed on the railroad tracks right
here in town. We called the C.P.R.—he hadn’t
heard a thing. We called the C.aN.R. they didn’t
know anything, they said, except that the pro
vincials had been down talking to the man in the
tower at the Thames St. crossing. We roared
down there and the towerman said he didn’t
know anything, but he had heard there was an
accident and the provincials had raced off in that
direction. So did we. We scoured the tracks for
miles. Not a sign of a police car or anything. We
ducked back to the police station. The officer
there said he hadn’t heard of anything, but he’d
check the telephone operation. The telephone
operator said yes, there had been a man killed,
and Constable Alsop was investigating it Since
Alsop was doing it, it had to be in the town lim
its. So we started looking again for a police car.
We couldn’t find a thing. Finally in desperation,
we called Constable Alaop’s home just on the off-
chance he was back home after checking into the
death. Well, we asked, was there an accident?
Yes, he said, two autos bumped each other—dam
age less than $50 . . . Yep, we sure did.
Birds seem to have a greater faith in the hu
man race than we, for example, have. What brings
this up is the fact that a cardinal, one of these
beautiful red birds which seem to like Ingersoll
so well, (not using the roads), with all the world
to choose from, has chosen a spot virtually on our
front door step to build a home and rear its
brood. We hope no catts are listening, or can read
this, but the nest is in a. not particularly thick
bush not more than arm’s length from the veran
dah rail. Our verandah we should say, is the
natural and frequent habitant of a great num
ber of the neighbor's children and our own, and at
times it makes the C.N.E.’s midway seem like a
deserted village. It is as much as an adult’s life
is worth to step out into the midst of this car
eening howling mob. And kiddies of course, have
little respect for any bird's efforts. But to the
cardinal, apparently it was Eden, and we hope her
faith will be rewarded.

There will be a lot of laughter inIngersoll this summer if the Book
Club’s recommendations are carriedout The June meeting last week was
addressed by Mrs. Ross Kilgour andMrs. Jack Morgan. Humorous book*were chosen for review and were very
humorously presented.Cheaper By The Dozen, the book
that is currently entertaining thousands, was the book Mrs. Kilgourtalked about It is the story of the
astonishing family of Gilbreths. Thefather, an industrial engineer and an
efficiency expert, worked out manyof his famous theories on saving timeby trying them out on his twelve
children. Teaching the family touchtyping in two weeks, foreign lang
uages by absorption and the MorseCode by making it a game, were onlysome of them. To study ways of saving 1
time for surgeons in performing operations he arranged a mass tonsil
ectomy for the family. This however,was not one of the successful experiments. The book provides plenty
of amusement as well as many interesting side-lights on managing a
large family.Mrs. Morgan chose to speak onseveral Canadian and American
humorists such as Robert Benchley,Stephen Leacock, Ogden Nash, Frank
lin P. Adams, and Eric Nicol. Sheread several examples of their writings, the most hilarious being the one
by Robert Benchley on travelling withsmall children, Kiddie Kar Travel,
and Stephen Leacock’s famous account of his experiences in a bank,My Financial Career. A short bit
called International Relations was alsoincluded and drew as many laughs
as the others, and it was not discoveredtill after the meeting that the piecewas by Ingersoll’s own rising young
humorous writer, the speaker herself, Laura Morgan.
The five minutes of current eventswas capably handled by Mrs. J. C.Herbert, who highlighted such events
as the International Federation ofAgriculture and the InternationalTrade Fair both taking place in Ontario, the Eisler case with an interesting commentary on the old British
Extradition Act, and the latest movesby Russia in Berlin and the East.Miss Helen Nagle thanked the
speakers for such a fine summerymeeting. Mrs. J. N. Barnes presided
over the meeting and the convener of
the program was Mrs. David Stone.At the conclusion of the meeting avariety of jackets from the new bookswere displayed. These are all booksthat will have appeal for holiday

Group Seek New Means
To Salvage Farm Waste
A select group of. men are hard at work devis
ing methods of putting more money in the farm
er’s pocket by salvaging farm waste and sur
pluses. Very little is heard of them for the science /
they are engaged in is virtually unknown. It is
called “chemurgy’*—that branch of applied chem
istry devoted to industrial utilization of organic
materials, especially farm products.
The accomplishments of chemurgic chemists are'
making history. Take straw for example. Millions
of tons are set afire annually by prairie farmers
.because they could find little use for it Recently,
two scientists in Peoria, Illinois, developed a new
methods of processing wheat straw into high '
grade paper and pulp board. This will place insul--
ating board from straw in a position to compete
with similiar material made from wood.
Another chemist, Garl Miner, sought to find
out how waste corn cobs and oat hulls could con
tribute .to better living. After years of experi
mental work he discovered a chemical from these
■ called "furfural’’ which has become ' an import
ant ingredient in the manufacture of petroleum,
nylons, synthetic resins and antispetics.
In Idaho, a potato growing community is richer
by $5,000,000 each year because of a new indus
try which manufactures white starch from culled
potatoes. In Canada the national chemurgic com
mittee of the Canadian Chamber of Commerce is
knee deep in chemurgic research with the National
Research Council A recent project involved the
use of excess wheat in the manufacture of starch
and dried gluten.
. While the above are only a few example^ of
chemurgic research, they are enough to indicate
the continuing importance of farming to the
national economy.
We had a long talk with Stan Minshall, local
boy who made good, and who is now the mayor
of St Petersburg, Florida, where nearly all Can
ada except us goes down to sweat out the wintry
winds. And the most remarkable thing about
Stan is that he hasn’t the teenist bit of sun tan.
Now nearly everybody we know who goes visits
ing comes back looking like a fit candidate for a
Jim Crow car. But Stan looked positively pale.
How come, we asked, mentioning that all the ad
vertising said the sun shone at least 400 days of
every year down there, and the only way U miss
it was ta go to some rainy spot, like California,
Well Stan said, he was just too busy to get out
side and he barely saw the sun from one year to
the next—roughly only when he walked between
his florist’s shop and the mayor’s office, one block
and., a half away ... So that’s why Stan makes a
ghost look flushed. Incidentally for being mayor of
that city he gets not one penny a year. Just the
honor.

Just about the most excited boy
in town these days is Kenny Wal
lace, 5. Ken’s dad, Jack Wallace,
bought him a ticket to the Lions
Carnival and Kenny won the grandprise—the Frigidaire of all things.
Or as Kenny calls it, the “frigid-ator.”
It is conceivable Kenny could haveused something else to more advantage, but he couldn’t have beenmore excited.“He’s just tickled silly over it,”said Mrs. Kay, housekeeper at theWallace home, (Kenny lost hismother recentTyf. ‘5He says he’s
going to do nothing but make ice
cream for everybody—and pop
sickles, too.”
Mrs. Kay said Kenny didn’t know
it, yet, but there’s a possibility
Father Wallace will be giving his
youngster something more suitable
in the play line—perhaps an elec
tric train—as sort of a swap propos
ition.
It is Kenny’s first prize, it isbelieved.The Lions themselves are just
about as excited as Kenny. Their
carnival raised an estimated $2000
to carry on their grand work in the
interests of the public welfare,
which includes aiding the new hos
pital.

LOUIS ST. LAURENT. Prime Minister of Canada
widnund th* savage attacks
of sun, snow, *]e«t, and rrio.
It won't turn white or even
smtfrik white.
S. IL Douglas & Sons
KING ST. EAST
At the polls on June 27 the voter must
ask himself, ahead of anything else, who
should be head of the government.
In Louis St. Laurent, Canada has
found a great national leader.
That he had higli abilities of the min'd
was proved by his career in law. That
he had wisdom in cabinet, unique gifts
in parliamentary debate and a quick
grasp of large affairs became clear as
soon as he entered the Government In
international affairs, as one of the origi
nal advocates of the Atlantic Pact he
made himself a world figure who spoke
out as no Canadian before him, in the
councils of the nations.
He also revealed an understanding
of ordinary people, because he is
one of them.
This warm and essentially simple
human being is the real St Laurent the
product of the small town, of humble
beginnings, hard work, a big family and
the friendliness of country neighbors.
In blood, language and instinct he
combines the qualities of two great
races.
To the voter it is equally important
that St Laurent is the leader of a .truly
national party, with proved strength
from coast to coast the only party which
can hope to form a stable government
after the election. His character. his
ability and his achievements have made
him the leader of all the Canadian
people*

The history of Banner congregationsituated on the fourth concession ofNorth Oxford Township, three mileseast of Dorchester and four miles west
of Ingersoll, is more than 90 years old,says Mrs. R. J. Gordon, in the London Free Press.The records show that in the year1842, Rev. George Young, preachedthe first sermon in this communityin the home of Mrs. Alex Hyde, who
was the grandmother of A. G. Harris,who later preached an anniversary
here. The first Sunday School wasstarted by David Dundas, with the
assistance of Miss Martha Minklerand Miss Matilda Hyde. It was held fora time in the home of David Dundas,and then in the first' school house,which stobd across the road from theprescnVchurch, on the farm of Joe.Spearman.The land for the church and cemeterywas given by David Doughty of Ingersoll, who at that tithe had the contract for supplying wood to the GrandTrunk Railroad—Canadian Nationaltoday—that passes a short distanceaway.

The church was built in 1856 butowing to some differences with thecontractors was not dedicated untilJuly, 1857. Rev. J. H. Robinson ofLondon, preached the dedication sermons.
The original trustee board of thechurch was Armon Clark, WilliamMcFadden, Jeremiah Minkler, AsaHyde, Robert Dundas, Stephen Irwinand Joseph Spearman.
In the early days the church wascalled “North Oxford,” and the community “Spearman’s Corners," and wasattached to the Ingersoll circuit, underthe ministry of Rev. George Kennedy.In the year 1868, Banner became anappointment of the Dorchester circuit under the ministry of Rev. Will
iam Galbraith.
In 1904 the congregation decidedto make some changes in the churchand to make it warmer, the walls werestripped and new lathing and plaster
ing put on, a new ceiling was installedand the windows remodelled. It wasdecided to excavate under the church
and install a furnace. After the excavation was made, it was decided tokeep on digging, Taise the churchfloor and put in a basement room fora Sunday School. The big platform
and steps that ran across the wholefront of the church, on the outsidewere removed and a new entry built.Neighborhood men all turned outfor “bees” and did all they possibly
could, including the cement and carpenter work. The ladies served dinnerfor the workers.
Owing to the fact that the seatswere not delivered as expected, theopening services were not held untilSunday, February 26, 1905. Rev.Clayton Moorehouse of Rutherford,
brother of Rev. A. E. Moorehouse,preached the morning and evening
services. Rev. Marshall of Ingersoll,preached in the afternoon.
On the Monday evening, the Ladies
Aid served a bountiful fowl supper.From then on to 1947, the 90th anniversary, the usual anniversarieshave been held. During the war yearsthe fowl suppers were eliminated andcongregational pot luck suppers wereheld.
The 90th anniversary was held onSunday, November 2, 1947, with Rev.F. W. Craik of Peterborough, a former pastor in charge. On Tuesdayevening, November 4, the Women's
Association with Mrs. Roy Gordon aspresident, held a pot luck supper inthe basement of the church. Aftersupper, a delightful program was enjoyed, (contributed by artists from
Zenda, Dorchester and Banner). Rev.R. J. Merriam was chairman and open-*ed the program with the hymn, “BlestBe the Tie That Binds,” followed byMrs. Bartindale and Mrs. Charles
Waring; vocal solos by Mrs. CecilBurrill; readings by Mrs. RobertDoan; violin solos by Charles Waring;whistling solos. Miss Clara Dundas;vocal duets by Mrs. Cecil Burrill andMr. Calvin Sutherland. The historyof Banner Church was read by Mr. S.J. Dtmdas.
After 52 Years
Miss Bower Leaving
Setting what is believed to be a record, Miss Effie Bower is retiringat the end of this term, after 52years’ teaching in Ingersoll.
Principal A. G. Murray, speakingto the public school board, estimatedthat at least 2000 pupils had passedthrough Miss Bower’s hands, “and Ifeel Ingersoll has benefitted greatly,
from her efforts as a teacher.”“Every one of her pupils will benefit for having been in Miss Bower’sclasses,” he said.She lives on the same street on
which she was born.

SAY CATTLE THRIVE
ON FERTILIZED FIELDS
Seeming to sense the nutritional
value of superior herbage grown on
fertilized fields, cattle will oftenbreak down stout fences to ge at it,according to pasture managementexperts of C-I-L's agriculturalchemicals division.
To acquire ideal grazing condi
tions, the experts suggest it is far
better to fertilise a small area
amply than a large area too spar
sely. Early spring growth prompted
by fertilization means grazing
should commence earlier to enable
cattle to keep the height of grass
down. When grass grows too tall,
it develops fib rous stems which are
neither palatable nor nutritious.
Should growth of herbage get outof control, a mower should be runover the fields to cut down the fibrous vegetation and allow the protein-rich undergrowth, to develop.
To make the most of fertilized pas
ture, it is advisable to divide it into
two areas for alternate grazing, al
lowing each a brief period of time
in which to renew its growth of
grasi.
According to tests made over an
eight-year period by the Dominion
Department of Agriculture, a 75
per cent increase in grass product
ion was achieved with the use of
fertilizer high in superphosphate.
Increase in carrying capacity was
58 per cent-

What a great time we’ve had this
week. Yes, just got through mov
ing also had the great pleasure
of planting and planning another
home,.even built a little fish pond
and rockery, with all the little
plants that go with it to make it
look natural.
What is more soothing than to
sit and look at a few gold fish dancing about in the water, trying tocatch some insect that might havefallen in. Everyone can have a littlepond. Just get an old tub and sinkit in the ground, put a few rocks
around, plant some iris and water
loving plants near by and what
have you . . . something to be proud
of and to watch every day. By the
way, how about a visit from you
to show you what I mean.

Hope To Bring Harmsworth To Canada With Miss Canada IV
An unusual hydrodynamic designfeature, worked into the hull of “Miss
Canada IV,” Canada’s Harmsworthchallenge boat, may change the marine design picture.In discussing the design of MissCanada IV, Douglas S. Van Patten,whp created the boat, explained fullythe working principles of this newdevice, the “keel knuckle form.” Thisfeature never before has been fully
explained in print. Experts who haveexamined the few boats in which itis employed, have overlooked itAnd yet Van Patten looks upon thefeature as one of the outstandingfactors in the “Miss Canada” design—a factor which could win the worldclassic powerboat race for Canada.Jqst what can be expected of thispower boat will be indicated in twoweeks, when the first trial runs aremade in Gravenhurst waters. The
boat, owned by E. A. Wilson, anddriven by his son Harold, both ofIngersoll, is nearing completion.The hull, built at Gravenhurst byGreavette Boats Limited, is finished.The 2,500-horsepower Rolls-Royce,“Griffon” engine and accessories were
shipped to Gravenhurst from Ingersolllast week-end for final installation.Van Patten’s prognostications putthe Canadian boat in a speed rangewhich exceeds Sir Malcolm Campbell’sworld record water speed of 141 and-a-fraction statute miles-per-hour.
The designer said this speed prediction can be compared “with thatof the people who are building HenryKaiser’s new boat, which has the snidehorsepower, but which they say should ;go 180 miles-per-hour.”
Lighter Weight
“Miss Canada IV has considerably ;
lighter weight than Kaiser’s boat andthe same horsepower, so it has an ad- 'vantage in speed potential.
“Kaiser’s boat weighs in excess of 1
8,000 pounds now. They may succeed 1
in getting a ton out of it before they’re 1
through.” *Miss Canada IV, 33 feet long and .

nine feet, ninc-and-a-half inches in thei beam, weighs 6,439 pounds ready to
i run. The hull itself, empty, weighsI 2,750 pounds.“Miss Canada IV is a competitionboat If we were building for recordsi on a straight run where we could, pick our weather, we would buildr lighter. We would build the same gen-r eral shape though.”i According to estimated stress andstrain tolerances, Miss Canada IV is> built for tough racing conditions.The boat. Van Patten says, willwithstand a stress of 57,000 pounds,’’sagging” or “hogging.” “Sagging”
means supporting the ends and applying weight to the middle. “Hogging”
is the opposite."The structure will take more buthow much more depends on the natureof the woods. Woods vary,” he said,declaring the boat might break in two
at around 57,000 pounds.This maximum stress would cause acrew reaction of “9-G’s," or wherethe weight becomes nine times normalin relation to gravity.
9-G Blackout
A "9-G” is sufficient to cause a
complete blackout of the individual.The human organism can withstand7-G’s, some people 8-G’s, but 9-G is adefinite blackout
In other words, Miss Canada IV
will take all the pressure that hercrew can withstand.
For Example, at 120 miles per hourin a dead calm, principal strain wouldcome from the thrust of the propellor.At this speed, in these water conditions, the boat would be withstanding1,765 pounds of thrust.
Principal strains in racing comefrom "jumping” in rough water.
Taking a hypothetical case, MissCanada IV at 120 miles per hour,would take a strain of 50,000 pounds
in water "rougher than any that highspeed races have ever been held in—a good deal rougher than the Gold Cupcourse was last year.
The hull design of the boat, VanPatten says, is not "strictly speakinga V-type.” This one radical designfeature, the "keel knuckle form,” is a
principle of interest of both UnitedStates and British Governments.
This keel form is actually a flatsurface, running along the keel thelength of the boat.
This flat keel surface, which it
can be said is narrow, "has a con
ditioning effect upon the water the
boat rides on."
Give* Velocity
“The function is this: The unit
load on that flat surface is ex
tremely high, which results in a cur
rent of water being directed out
ward and sideways. This imparts a
transverse velocity to the boundarylayer."
This reaction “reduces markedlythe area-of low pressure water contacting the trailing edge of eachplaning surface, drastically reducing an induced load.”
“The keel knuckle is in rny opln-
iop the only improvement in the
hydroplane since the Rev. John
Meade Remus invented it (about
1883)” said Mr. Van Patten.
The “keel knuckle” is part of the
design of Miss Canada III, the trim
Gold “Cup boat of Wilson’s that has
been admired by so many authori
ties on powerbqpt racing.
In Miss Canada IV, virtually
every joint where wood touches
wood is glued. Since the war new
synthetic adheKives have been developed on a practical basis. Theyare truly waterproof.
“Prior to the war, all race boatswere fastened together with screws,bolts and rivets. Since the war. practical designers are employingglues", said the designer.
The keel for Miss Canada IV waslaid down at Gravenhurst February19, this year. The boat was finishedwith its varnished de^k, black sidesand ivory and'black bottom thisweek. ’ -
Lake Erie Oak
The keel is of white' oak, taken
from the north shore of Lake Erie.
Harold Wilson and Van Patten
scouted in a car where they thought
oak was, until a fanner offered them
some good material which has been
"Miss Canada IV”„ owned by E. A. Wilson,
Ingersoll, -and driven by his son, Harold will be
ready for trial runs at Gravenhurst in two weeks.
Pictured here is the hull of the boat, as it nearedcompletion in the shops of Greavette Boats Limited,
Gravenhurst. The bottom is completely planked
with solid mahogany, and the sides, of laminated
mahogany sheets, have been attached. The trans
verse ribs, which give the boat its contours can be
seen.

well cured for years.Working to a tolerance of 1-64of an inch, the keel was laid in thetraditional fashion, and fitting upbegan.The “bulkheads,” "ribs” or
“frames”—the crosswise parts
which give the boat its shape and
contour, were bolted and glued to
the keel. These parts take the ver
tical strain.
’ISandwich” construction, used
during World War II in the Mos
quito bomber, is used for the bulk
heads. Two pieces of yellow birch
plywood forms the outer surfaces,while the internal lamination issitka spruce.The lengthwise stringers werethen bolted and glued to the struc

along the sides where the side sur
face meets the decks, are of white
oak, % inch less in each dimension
than the chines.
The sister keelsons are also of
the “sandwich” type of wood lam
inations or plywood. These sister
keelsons are 17 inches deep at the
deepest point, and are the main
strengthening members. They run
the full length of the boat.
Engine Street
The engine rests on an oak bed,which by a bracket arrangement isfastened to the sister keelsons. The
stress from the engine load is takenin the boat by the lengthwise sisterkeelson, or main timbers. They
are 1 7-32 inches thick.Next, the sides are fastened. They
are 9/16 inches thick, were made
35% ft. long to follow the contour,
and consist of 15 laminations of
African mahogany, 15% inches
wide at the widest point.
The sides provide a great deal of
longitudinal rigidity.
Van Patten says “a great deal ofracing boats are built without sides.The decking surface curves over tothe chine. This necessitates additional members, installed to give theboat strength, and adds greater
weight.“The sides are not merely to
kee"p the deck out of water, but
they are definite structural mem
bers.”The sides are fastened with bolts,
Someone once asked designerDouglas Van Patten, who created
Canada’s Harmsworth challengeboat Miss Canada IV, how such beau
tiful boats as the "Miss Canada”
series could be produced in what
referred t« as the "wilds of Gravenhurst.” Someone else, hearing the
conversation, was inspired, and thishumorous cartoon was produced. The
big question as far this laughable
sketch is concerned, is how spot
lights steering wheel, windshield,
and even the flag can be carved out
of a tree trunk.

Page 10 THE INGERSOLL TRIBUNE, THURSDAY, JUNE 9, 1949Major Details of '
The Progressive Conservative Party’s Declaration of Policy-
Drafted and Approved by Canadians from every Province-
Representing Every walk of Life
I have now visited all ten provinces since Parliament was dissolved. In one
tiling there is widespread agreement throughout the whole of Canada: it is timefor a change. Tla- important thing for all Canadians to decide between now and
June 27th is what that change will be. On earlier occasions over the radio I have
put forward some of the reasons why a change is so necessary if we are to restoreParliament to the people and lift the burden of taxation and arbitrary controlsfrom the shouldera of those who are doing the work of the nation in all their many
daily tasks. At this time, with the election four weeks away, I would like to reviewsome of the major details of the Declaration of Policy which was drafted andunanimously approved by the delegates of our Party from every constituency in
Canada ana representing every occupation. I have already referred at different
Gsorgs Draw times to many of its details. This is no hastily-drafted election manifesto. It isnot my statement of policy, or statement prepared by any group or committee.It expressed the unanimous opinion of delegates from every ••'nvince who met in Ottawa from September 30th
to October 2nd last year.
Details are embraced by the three words which interpret the purpose of the undertaking we give toCanadians: Opportunity, Security, Freedom. Those words constitute no meaningless, time-worn slogan. Theyrepresent the broad purpose of a dynamic and progressive plan of action which we have placed before you as aconvincing reason why you should support the Progressive Conservative candidate in your own constituency,
no matter what party you have supported in the past.
May I quote the very first words contained in that Declaration of Policy: “Freedom is one and indivuable.
If economic freedom is lost, political freedom will be lost. Economic freedom is the essence of competitiveenterprise, and competitive enterprise is the foundation of our democratic system.' All history shows that competitive enterprise provides the maximum of production and therefore the maximum of social security. For
those reasons we affirm our belief in the principle of economic freedom. Economic freedom will promote thrift,foster and encourage the qualities of self-reliance, industry, and initiative which have brought this nation toits present enviable position. It will preserve and improve our standard of living."
With that statement, and believing in freedom as we do, we have also undertaken to make the necessary
amendments in our Criminal Code to deal effectively with those who are working to establish a Communistdictatorship here in Canada. In the name of freedom we do not intend to permit treacherous, anti-Christianagents of that evil tyranny to destroy the freedom for which Canadians paid so great a price. We also believe
that our constitution must be respected and observed to preserve national unity and also to make secure ourown freedom by those wise balances of authority between the dominion and the provincial governments whichwere devised as a check on the concentration of power in the hands of the national government. Believingthat the strongest basis of freedom is the encouragement offered free people to better their own condition
by saving from what they earn and building a home as the centre of the family life, we are opposed to a systemof taxation which makes it difficult to save even with the present relatively high earnings.
I take this opportunity to review some of the major features of our policy with particular reference/to
three words: opportunity, security and freedom.
OPPORTUNITY
First let me refer to the word‘opportunity’. The Progressive Con
servative Party will assure opportunity to all our people by:
A bold and progressive national
development programme
Canada is on the threshold of
her greatest period of development,if a vigorous government, with faithin the future is given the opportunity to bring into production the
immense resources wiiieh we p,*-scss
in every part of Canada. Whilethe vast areas of the North challenge
our vision and our courage, there isno part of Canada where there arenot new opportunities of develop
ment if we provide the electricenergy and other sources of power
which will encourage new industries
and new types of agricultural pro
duction which can nvtke every partof Canada more productive in theyears ahead.
Our national development programme will cover the development
of power, oil, coal, mineral resources
and the <- transportation facilitiesnecessary for their full use. Inparticular we will establish (a) aNational Development Advisory
Council in co-operation with theprovinces; (b) establish a NationalPower Authority to co-operate with
the provinces in the technical examination of possible power development and in the actual development
of electric power at cost; (c) undertake the commencement of a jointconservation, irrigation and power
project on the Saskatchewan River;
(d) encourage the development ofpower in the Maritime Provincesfrom coal ns well as by other means;
(e) promote the development of thegreat iron ore resources of ourcountry and the establishment of
greatly expanded steel industrywithin Canada; (f) stimulate thedevelopment of petroleum and othermineral resources in co-operation
with the provinces by taxation andfiscal policies which will encourage
the investment of risk capital;
(g) institute a vigorous programmeof water conservation, reforestation,flood control, irrigation and drain
age schemes throughout the wholeof Canada for the reclamation ofunproductive land and the pre
servation of our soil, and along withother sinfilar activities in co-operation with the provincial governments; (h) establish a positive pro
gramme of marsldand reclamation.and development; (i) take effectivesteps at the earliest possible date to
co-operate with the provincialgovernments in building the TransCanada Highway and feeder roads,which will not only greatly increase
our transportation facilities, butalso help to open out the vast possibilities of the tourist business in
every part of Canada; (j) remove thediscrimination in freight rates between the several geographical areasof Canada so that all sections of our
country may receive the full benefit,from the development of our greatresources; (k) deal effectively with
the special transportation problemof Prince Edward Island,. Newfoundland, Cape Breton and Van
couver Island; (1) take the necessarysteps to proceed with the development of the power and waterways
project on the St. LawerencefRiver.
Expansion of trade
The ultimate value* of all our
development depends upon the distribution and sale of what we pro
duce. Because *»f our tn'mendous
producing capacity we are oner ofthe world’s great exporters. Theexternal markets for our surplus
products contribute very Largely tothe pay envelopes which buy the
food, clothing and other necessities
in every Canadian home. Lookaround you in your own borne now.The things you have depend upon
that overseas trade, no matter wnatyour occupation may be. Overseasmarkets have been lost, and our
trade is dangerously threatened bythe government’s foolish trade ufod
monetary policy. As our trade withBritain and other overseas marketsare lost. Canadians are being re
assured by the volume of our exports
to the united States. We believein increasing our exports to theUnited States to the highest possi
ble level. We believe that allCanada’s exports can be, and shouldlie, tremendously increased. We
know, however, that disastrousresults would follow any attempt todepend exclusively upon exports toone nation no matter how friendly
that nation may be. The loss of ourtrade in wheat, lumber, fish, apples,dairy products and the other things
that we have been shipping overseasmeans more than a mere questionof dollars and cents. It means aloss of business on the railways, in
the seaports, and on the ships whichhave been carrying this trade to theworld. It would dislocate our wholeinternal trading organization and
force serious readjustments of employment with our railways andother transportation services. The
Progressive Conservative Partypledges itself to adopt every practical means to expand our internal
trade with the United States andwith all other nations where we cansell what we produce. By reciprocal
trade agreements we will promoteand expand our trade overseas andalso with the United States. Parti
cularly we will (a) remove all
abnormal trade barriers imposed byway of license, quota, or embargo;(b) remove the arbitrary provisions
of the Foreign Exchange ControlAct; (c) re-value the Canadiandollar within the limits permitted
by the Bretton Woods agreementand seek such modification of thoseagreements os .ire niwssary to per
mit our dollar to assist our externaltrade in the normal ^way; (d) opennegotiations immediately for the
purpose of making the dollar and
pound convertible, so that we mayopen and expand our lost overseasmarkets in the sterling area.
Reduction of Taxes
The greatest encouragement to
work, production and trade is theopportunity to receive a fair returnfrom which money can be saved forour families, our homes and pro
vision for the future. Even withhigh earnings today, our present taxsystem is making it difficult to save
and is greatly increasing the cost ofeverything we buy. Reduction oftaxes and sweeping reforms in oursystem of taxation are necessary
to encourage initiative and rewardhard work. With that in mind, theProgressive Conservative Party has
undertaken to: (a) increase the
personal income tax exemption toat least $2,500 for a married person,and to at leasts $1,250 for single
persons; (b) increase the exemptionfor dependent children by $200;(c) lower the general rate of personalincome tax; (d) allow deductions to
farmers for work done, by membersof the family who share the work ofthe farm; (e) end the persecution of
our people by tax-coliectora actingunder arbitrary power; if) encourage development and improvement
•.of small businesses operated by the
owner by allowing proper exemption for money which is put intothe improvement of the business
and not paid out in profits; (g) provide for a graduated reduction intaxes on other small businesses upon
the portion of the income left inthe business for further developmentqnd consequently for the increase
of employment; (h) abolish nuisancetaxes and. make substantial reductions in general sales and excise
taxes on necessities.
SECURITYThe Progressiva Conservative
Party assures security to all Cana-by the following Declarationof Policy.
* Security of EmploymentWe believe that the greatest
assurance of employment in Canadais based upon the fullest develop
ment of our resources which will
create new employment across thewhole country and inerca’w the
domestic markets for all that weproduce. In addition to the discovery and employment of newresources, the remarkable scientific
developments of the past few yearshave greatly widened the use we
can make of all the resources we
possess. In co-operation with thevarious provincial governments wewill explore every possibility of
expanding the opportunities forwork by encouraging new types ofproduction.
Contributory Social Security
Pio^rammc*
The Progressive Conservative
Party puts forward a contributorysocial security programme providingthe following benefits amongst
others:1. Believing that provision for oursenior citizens at a level of payment
which will give them a feeling ofindependence in their retiring yearsis essential, we have stated that we
do not believe that old-age pensions
should be regarded as a favour, butshould be a right and that no chargeshould be made on such property
as has been saved during their working years, nor should there be any
enquiry as to whether some money
is being earned by the personreceiving the pension. We believethat the laws of the country should
not discourage saving during theworking years and such work as ourpeople wish to do in their old age.
For that reason we provide for old-
age pensions at 65 without a MeansTest.2. Unemployment Insurance
benefits will be extended to includepayments for time lost due to accident or sickness.
3. Adequate medical and hospital
care will be provided for our peopleunder a national health programmewhich will also include the most ex
tensive preventative health services.4. The same family allowancewill be paid for every child, no
matter how many children are inthe family, and the nutritional andother services for our children will
be greatly improved.
These, and other provisions in-jeluded in our programme, will be
worked out in co-operation with the
provinces, so that the highly-skilledand experienced public welfare services of the provincial governments
will be available.
An Effective Programme for the
Construction of Homes
1. Loans and priorities will bemnde available to those who desireto build their own houu-.H. 2. Low-
cost housing can, and will be provided under plana approved by thedominion, provincial and municipal
governments which will be administered by the municipalities. 3. Thecoat of building homes can be re
duced by encouraging new types of
construction. What is causing somuch concern to our people at present is not only the shortage of
housing accommodation, but alsothe excessive cost of small homes,particularly those required by our
young people starting out in life.In this respect I might point outthat while I was Premier of Ontario
we .introduced a Housing Act inregard to which the official publication of the Canadian Legion bad the
following to say and I quote from
their editorial: “Veterans everywhere will acclaim the new housinglegislation recently enacted in the
province of Ontario. In this newhousing legislation the Ontariogovernment is blazing new trails,
out of which might materialize thelong-awaited, over-all plan for thesuccessful solution of the housing
problem in every part of thedominion, which the Legion hasb»en preying for hard ever sincethe war ended.” The effect and
application of this Act wax necessarily limited by the overriding
authority of the dominion government, which restricted supplies forbuilding homes by their restrictiveregulations. We will remove thos<-
restrictions and the principles ofthat Act to which ] have referredcan be made effective in the wider
field by constitutional agreementbetween the dominion, provincialand municipal authorities who must
all play their part in solving thisvery urgent problem.
Security for our Farmers
Our programme sets out a verycomplete statement of policy in
regard to stability of income for our
farmers. I will refer to some of themore important provisions: 1. We
undertake to enact floor-price legis
lation based on the following principles: (a) A definite formula in theFarm Prices Support Act for arriv
ing at floor prices, (b) This formulawill allow for variation in production and demand for individual
products, (c) Floor prices will be
announced well in aavanoe of theproduction period, (d) The floorprice will be arrived at in consulta
tion with representative producers.We favour the restoration of theCanadian Wheat Board Act of 1935
to serve as a marketing agency for
wheat producers. We are in favourof coarse grains as well as wheatbeing handled on a voluntary basis
by the Wheat Board. We assurethat producers themselves will de
cide the method by which their
wheat will be handled and sold. Thisstatement of policy, and it is anemphatic statement of policy, is
based upon our belief that marketing boards, representative of producer organizations should, andwill, determine their own method of
marketing. The Wheat Board andall similar producers’ boards, will bemade up of producers themselves
and not be mere agencies of somedepartment of government.3. We will establish a board of
livestock commissioners.
4. We will extend the activitiesof the Federal Farm Loan Board sothat farmers may take advantage of
long-term, low-interest rates in thepurchase and development of theirforms.
5. We will increase the facilitiesfor agricultural research to explorenew uses of agricultural pfoducta
for industrial purposes and in cooperation with provincial Departments of Agriculture conduct thor
ough studies of contagious animal
aid plant diseases to reduce theheavy annual loss from thia cause.
6. In determining agricultural
policy, we will enlist the co-operation of farmers' organizationsthroughout Canada and those spec
ializing in particular types of production, so that all administrativeas well as advisory boards will have
representation of those with expertknowledge of the subject upon whichthey will be asked to deal. These andthe other provisions in our agricul
tural programme are all based uponthe belief that the best interests ofagriculture throughout Canada can
be served under the guidance ofthose with practical knowledge of
each agricultural activity.
Security for Labour
(a) Our national development
programme, our proposed taxreform and our plans for the expansion of trade offer the assurance ofexpanding employment in the years
ahead. Good working conditionsand satisfactory terms of employment can be soured hext by effec
tive laws governing labour relations.In the field of national jurisdiction,the Progressive Conservative Party
puts forward a policy based upon
the belief that good working conditions for our people and friendlyrelations between workers and man
agement are not only in the bestinterests of our workers, but also in
the best interests of every Cana
dian. We believe that the positionof labour must be constantly improved and that the security and
happiness of all our workers must be
protected by legislation which willprovide for effective collective bar
gaining, determination of the mutual rights of workrra and management, as well as the conciliation
and settlement of difficulties whichmay arise. With thia object in view,we will establish a National Labour
Council which will have equal num
bers of representatives of labourand nfnnagement. This council willexamine and consider the causes of
labour disputes and propose satisfactory solutions for such problems.It will also conduct research into
the ways in which labour relationscan constantly be improved.(b) We will provide for greaterrepresentation of labour on govern
ment boards, commissions, andagencies.(c) We will encourage profit-
sharing plans for the sharing ofprofits of workers by such adjustment in taxation and otherwise as
will encourage plans of this kind.(d) We will constantly improvethe legislation providing for com
pulsory collective bargaining, certi
fication of labour organizationsafter a majority vote, machinery forconciliation of disputes, fair and
adequate wages, standard hours ofwork having regard to the nature ofthe industry concerned, and holi
days with pay.
We have also an excellent pro
gramme for Security for Veterans
We believe that the governmentof Canada has no greater responsi
bility than to make adequate pro
vision for the young men and womenwho served Canada in two worldwars. Our Party has at all times
insisted that the promises madeduring the war to those in serviceshould be carried out in the spirit as
well as the letter of the assuranceswhich were given. Our programmetherefore gives the following under
takings to our veterans:
(a) To establish a standing committee of the House of Commons on
Veterans’ Affairs which will regularly
review all veterans* problems;(b) to retain and constantlyimprove all existing veteran legis
lation;
(c) to eliminate all unnecessarydelays in dealing with veterans and
to simplify procedure;(d) to extend pension benefits tothe members of tne merchant navy;
(e) to accept as the basis for alldecisions the medical category recorded on enlistment and to regard
physical condition below that standard during service as the actualresult of military service;
(f) to stabilize the pensions of
veterans of the First World War,providing for upward revision wherethe disability Has increased;
(g) to increase and extend the
provision of war veterans’ allowances with an increase in the amount
that a veteran may earn over andabove the allowance paid.
FREEDOM
Our constitutional freedom isbaaed upon the democratic principle that the people’s chosen repre
sentatives in Parliament aresupreme, and have the final responsibility for all laws which affectthe rights of our people. Thisprinciple is the corner-stone of all
our freedom. The Progressive Conservative Party pledges itself to put
and end to statmm in Canada andterminate bureaucratic action by
government order-in-council, minis
terial proclamation, and departmental regulation. We will restoreresponsible government answerable
to the elected representatives ofthe people. We believe in the widestpossible measure of personal liberty
consistent with law, order and the
general national welfare. We areopposed to all powers which investin the government arbitrary control
over tne rights of the individual.We pledge ourselves to restore thefull supremacy of the law and the
equality of every citizen under thelaw. We believe that the doeer
government ia to the people, the
better government always ia. Weare determin'd to conserve theauthority of the provincial and
municipal governments over thoselocal affairs which can best be dealtwith by men and women who are in
intimate contact with them. Weare strongly opposed to centraliza
tion of legislative and administra
tive power over local affaire, and toany breach of the constitutional
authority of any of the provinces
under the British North America^Act which made us one nation. On "assuming office we will arrange for
a dominion-provincial conference toconswl»-r all aspects of dominion -provincial relations and establish
an effective basis for close and continuing co-operation between all thegovernments of Canada. We believe
that national unity depends uponrespect for our federal constitutionand the clear definition of the
responsibility of the dominion and
provincial governments, with assurance of adequate financial resourcesto carry out those responsibilities
and with adequate financial resources to the municipalities to
carry out their many very importantresponsibilities. In preserving our
• freedom it is essential that freedomof speech be. fully protected. For
that reason, it must be a matter ofconcern to all Canadians that thegovernment-owned radio system
which plays such an important rolein the exchange of ideas should
have become a propaganda agencyof the government. May I em
phasize that in my belief the staffand technical experts of the Canadian Broadcasting Corporation are
trying to do a good job underutterly impossible conditions. Asyou know, any attempt on the part
of the employees of the CanadianBroadcasting Corporation to improve the organization only results
in immediate disciplinary action.The summary dismissal, for instance, of Mr. Joel Aldred, one of
the best known broadcasters of the
Canadian Broadcasting Corporation just the day before Parliament
dissolved, because he had publiclysuggested improvements within that
organization, is merely an indica
tion of the extent to which free
speech is being restrained by thepresent government. We undertake
to restore freedom of speech over
the radio as well as otherwise, andto place the supervision of allbroadcasting in Canada under an
independent administrative body.We further undertake to abolish thelicense fee on radio receiving sets.
We do this because this license fee.which is supposed to be for theservices given by the Canadian
Broadcasting Corporation, ia un
justified because there are manypirts of Canada where our juop.’u.receive no services from the publicly-
owned stations. All our iri^doiuand all our security depend uponour national security and indepen
dence. For that reason, one of thefirst resolutions adopted unanimously by our ddegatt-5 from everyprovince last October, was an
expression of unqualified support forthe establishment of a defensive
union of the Western Powers,
which has since taken form in theNorth Atlantic Security Pact. Oursupport of that policy has at all
time , hern stated m the xun- worthand with tin- s>imr> emphasis inevery part of Canada. The collec
tive preservation of peace and the
combined strength of the Irennations now gives increased importance to national defence and the
efficiency of our defence forces. Weundertake to set up a standing committee on ‘national defence which
will keep Parliament and the peopleinformed regarding the state of ourdefences and will also assure the
most effective use of the money wespend for the purpose of providingdefence forces.
The points I haw covered inthese remarks an* only some of the
progrexdve. practical and constructive policies which will be put intoeffect by a Progressive Conservative
government. I believe this state
ment will provide convincing reasonswhy you should cast your ballot onJune 27th for the Progressive Con
servative candidate in your ownconstituency so that the public
business of this great country willbe handled by a strong, vigorousand progressive government in the
years ahr.ul.

The Women's Auxiliary to theAlexandra Hospital Trust met atthe “Y” building, on May 80.The president, Mrs. P. M. Dewan,who occupied the chair, paid fittingtribute in the sudden passing of
Mrs. J. H. Nancekivell, a member
and former president of the Auxil
iary. She went on to say: “This
would seem like an inopportune time
to hold a business meeting, consid
ering we as a whole, have Just paid
our respects to a departed member,
but I feel that is the way Mrs.
Nancekivell would have wanted it.”
The secretary, Miss D. Harrisonand Miss A. Moon, treasurer, presented their reports of the lastmeeting, both being adopted.
A special thank you was extended
by the president, to Mr. and Mrs.
P. L. Smith for effective display of
prizes for the hospital tea. The
president also extended thanks to
all who participated in the successof the recent Florence Nightingalehospital tea. The tea netted $580.40.
In the absence of ticket convener,Mrs. F. Jackson, Mrs. F. Rich gave

With Rose Tag Day just few
weeks away, Miss E. A. Seldon,
convener for taggers, reported fav
orable progress in securing theassistance of many capable young
ladies, most anxious to help in such
a worthy cause. The tag day is June
18. Mrs. Mrs. P. T. Fleischer, con
vener for roses, reports members
have made 5000 roses to date, andhope to have 6000 completed byJune 18. Mrs. Fleischer and hercommittee are to be congratulated
on the efficient way they have hand
led this task.
Mrs. J. Baxter disclosed that
Pipe Major Collins of the Ingersoll
Pipe Band, has offered the band'sservices on Rose Tag Day. Mr. Collins said the band were most anx
ious to initiate their new uniforms
in their own home town, w’hose
people made the uniforms possible.
A concert will be held on the Mar
ket Square the night of June 18,
the silver collection proceeds to gotoward the Auxiliary Tag Day. Itwas decided to ask permission of
the mayor and council to rope off
space and make all arrangements
for this concert.
Considerable discussion took
place pertaining to achieving ourobjective of $25,000 for the furnishing fund. The total ammount sub
scribed to date stands at $20,000.
It was decided to sponsor a penny
sale for three consecutive days, Oct.
6, 7, 8, ending up with a monster
bingo in the Ingersoll Town Hall.Each member is to contribute asuitable article of not less than $2in value for opening sale. The pur
chasing committee is to arrange for
selection 'of several valuable prizes
to be purchased from the Auxiliary
Fund. A beautiful cut work table
cloth has been donated thus far.
The members decided to send fruitand flowers to Mr. Blake Coyle, ofCoyle & Greer, who has been veryill but is progressing favourable.
The Auxiliary also voted to raiseextra money through raffling of a
car, if considered feasible by the
executive. This matter was tabled
for future reference.
A questionnaire relating to furn
ishing the new hospital was con
ducted. A vote of confidence was
extended by Miss Seldon to the
president and the furnishing committee for their unstinting time andeffort in travelling to many placesin Western Ontario, (at their own
expense). The committee had worked
faithfully and diligently so every
penny of the public’s money would
be spent conscientiously and advan
tageously. Mrs. Dewan voiced her
appreciation fbr this kindly vote ofconfidence from Miss Seldon.
It was decided to remember sick
or deceased members with flowers.
Miss A. Seldon was appointed flower
convener. Mrs. Dewan reminded
members this would be the last
meeting for the season, activities to
resume the last .Monday in Sept.

and even dangerous to the horse;and the jolts which the wheels sustainare much worse than the worst macadamized road I am acquainted with.When the plank begins to wear out,it appears to be thought inexpedient
to attempt to keep it in repair; andthus its evils are endured for anotheryear or two, when it has to be replacedby new. Still the Board of Works islaying down a vast length of it between
Brantford and London, and thence onto Oxford, and in other parts of thewest; and I suppose where stone is

depended upon other things than itseasy-riding qualities. It permitted a]team of horses to draw heavier loads,in fact doubled the load they coulddraw. They were built more quicklythan macadamized roads, and since
farmers had plenty of timber, theywere willing to undertake the buildingof such a highway because it enabled
them to dispose of it at a good profitto themselves. The sawmills cut theirlogs into planks and allowed them a
good term of credit. By the time theirdebt was due they had received a dividend from the road tolls and could
pay the owner of the mill. The profits were not inconsiderable; ordinarily they were about fifteen per cent
after deducting the cost of upkeep,and there is the record of a threp-milestretch of plank road which paid 70,per cent one year. This extraordinaryprofit may have been due to the easewith which the patrons could be victimized who had been used to the sameroad as deep in mud as a slough. Mrs.
Moodic says that she used to doubtbefore traveling “whether it were ’better toruse a wagon or a boat” (Everybody seemed to see a plank ]road as a bridge to carry them over thesloughs which existed everywhere in .the province. About 1845, the Govern

I M P E R I A L O IL L I M IT E D
BY CHARLES S. BUCK iBetter roads than turnpikes were ifew in Upper Canada until 1840. iWhen they did exist they were gen- ;erally of only local importance. There
were some macadamized roads andsome plank roads. In some districts,the roads were improved by the addition of stone or gravel to the dirtsurface. Yet, in 1845, Dr. Beaven re
ports having seen only one section inWestern Ontario where the roads wereproperly built with broken stone, andthat was west of Hamilton. In otherplaces stone was used, but not of theright kind and not enough of it. Alsono care was given to the roads, afterthey were built, to remove the rutsand holes which soon appeared.He says: “The road is not watchedto preserve it from being worn intoruts and holes; when these eye-soresare formed, they are not speedily obl
iterated; The stone is not laid of sufficient depth to prevent its becomingvery uneven by the operation of thefrost in the spring; so that even thesubjacent soil frequently works up
to the surface, and forms deep mudholes in the middle of the road.”In another place, Dr. Beaven describes these planked roads in the process of being built. He was going fromBrantford to London. He says: “Inproceeding on our way we made thediscovery that the place to which we
were directed, viz., Oxford, had noexistence; that there was a townshipof Oxford, divided into east and west,but that there was no such place asOxford. A clergyman directed us to
Ingersoll. . . . There were two roadsto take, one the ordinary road of thecountry, the other partially planked ,and macadamized, and we were adv- ,ised to take the latter. What the for- '
mer might have proved, we of course jdid not know; but the latter proved jdisagreeable enough. About ten miles
of it were in the course of being planked; and the planking was not carried
on uniformity from one point to an- 'other, but the worst parts appearedto have been selected: I mean those ,
which were most swampy."The plank, it is true, so far as it ;was finished, which might be one * 1
fourth, was pleasant enough; but itwas questionable whether the road
on the whole was not in a worse statethan if nothing had been done to it.In those parts where the process oflaying down the planks was going on,we were often obliged to take to the
side of the road, which were of coursevery rough and uneven, and in partealmost impassable. In other parts theground was being prepared, by digging out trenches for the long beamsto which the plank was to be fastened,and laying down the beams themselves; and we were compelled toflounder along/on these as we could.The thing became much W’orse afternightfall, we were compelled to proceed mostly at a foot's pace; and whenwe came to one of these spots, we
alighted till it was passed. But it wasstill worse, when after trotting alongpleasantly on a bit of plank, we sud
denly came down on these beams andholes. In short, it must be evident thatEnglish horses would have been downa dozen times in the course of an hourbut our little Indians went through
it .all most patiently, and were perfectly ready for a merry trot when wecame to a bit of plank. Indeed, Cana
dian horses in general are remarkably sure-footed, and a broken kneeI have not yet noticed.
For a second period, roughly thetwenty years at the middle of the lastcentury, when pine was plentiful and
sawmills were operating on every millstream, plank roads were being laid
down throughout the province. Tomake the plank road, the land whichtlje road was to traverse was levelled
smoothly, ditched and drained. Piecesof heavy scantling five or six inchessquare were placed along the length
of the new road enough apart to makea roadway twelve, sixteen or twenty-
four feet wide. The ends of the scantling were sawn obliquely to make alap-joint and sunk into the earth
which was then levelled between.Pine planks three to four inches thick
were then laid across these, either atright angles to the scantlings or diagonally. (The latter was found to
make the road more durable.) Theplanks were wedged together and pinned with wood or iron to the timberbeneath. Sometimes the road was madedouble and in that case another lineof scantlings and another row oftransverse planks which met at themiddle timber, were necessary. Finally a light coating of sand or gravelwas spread upon the wood and conn
oisseurs in driving pronounced it “thepleasantest road for wheels that canwell be imagined." At least that wasthe opinion of Major R. C. Muir, author of the "Early Political and Military History of Burford.”Dr. Beavrn says, "You bound alongit with an ease and quietness whichis luxury itself, after one of ourordinary carriages over the macadamized road, to say nothing of theawful jolting and shaking of thosem a less advanced state. But then on
the other hand, when the plank hasbeen in use six or seven years, itbegins to give way in portions. Holes
are broken which are very awkward.
