Vol. 93, No. 21 shown a great deal of im‘:rove- ment to what they were early this Spring. This is more than can be said for most of the districts withâ€" in a hundred miles of here, where the roads are as bad or worse than when the snow first came off them. s Sedar St. and Erb St. East have now â€" either been surfaced or g::ched and are in good shape. tions where the new sewer was installed last year still leave something to be desired, but eviâ€" dently the soil has not settled sufficiently to permit surfacing. . The old bridge on Erb East is one section that should have something done about it. The curve at this bridge and the other one on Erb West near Shirk‘s Serâ€" vice Station, are two of the worst danger spots in the city. Both of these corners are "blind spots" with the one on Erb West being made even more dangerous by a number of cars parked there at all times. The railway crossing on Erb West is a public disgrace. Council could put a little presâ€" sure on the railway to fix this crossing, or even fix it themselves and then bill the railway? J.HS. Belching clouds of stinking smoke the train still crosses King St. at noon hour, while a pack of cursing motorists wait to get home for lunch. 0 . cbnd i us db i Ouf council are certainly well trained, at least so far as the railâ€" way is concerned. Not once have we heard one of the aldermen get up and ask for some control over the times the railway can plug up these public thoroughfares with their rattling boxcars and antiâ€" quated engine. 0 MBo omie Ruees oo n an s MMEstec eodelucet Evidently you mustn‘t hurt the feelings of the railway bigwigs or they might pull their toy engine and tracks out of Waterloo. In the long run it would probably be a mighty small loss. J.H.S. Waterloo is to be blessed with two far side bus stops. These are to be situated, one at the corner of King and Cedar and at the main corner of Erb and King. The farâ€"side bus stop is something that should have been used from the time the trolleys were first put on the job. There is no reason or excuse for the buses stopping on the near side of a street and holding up a long line of traffic as well as cutting back into the traffic and forcing private vehicles to wait for them. Most needed is, of course, the far side stop where there is a traffic iight. Here the buses are not only a nuisance but downâ€" right dangerous. Many of theddri; Ec LOU® MSZ c .& FO B in egne es t Car dealers in particular are optimistic and their stack of orâ€" ders for new cars remains high. 1t was expected that by this time, this year, orders for new cars would be pretty well filled and dealers would be scratching for business. Such has not been the case and in many instances, the various unions can be given the credit, if that is what it can be called. Unions have hampered the production of almost every car industry to the point where production has fallen way below what was expected and in some cases like that of Chrysler, ceased altogether. J.HS.

PLATTSVILLE.â€"The war between Eastland and Westland opened without a formal declaration. Westland demolished the locks at Sault Ste. Marie and swept through the Huronâ€"Sarnia area with paratroops. Drawing reserves from Valcartier and Ottawa, Eastland troops fell back to defend the territory between Hamilton and Burâ€" lington. But the line became overâ€"extended, supplies ran out and Eastland was forced to fall back again and reâ€"form along the Thames River. These were the theoretical conditions met by the 720 men of the 2nd Infantry brigade and auxiliary units taking part in battalionâ€" scale "Exercise Mayflower", the largest peacetime scheme of the Reâ€" serve Army in Western Ontario The manoeuvres took place on maseâ€"to makeâ€"conditions as realâ€" Sunday, 5 miles west of New istic as possible.

Roberts said the P.U.C. were pmvidins a service for Twin City people. If that is the only reason you have for discriminatâ€" ing a%ainst the Lishman buses, Ald. Roberts, it‘s pretty poor. Don‘t forget, all Twin City people do not live in the heavy residenâ€" tial districts. Many of them live at the edge of the cities and some far enough out they could claim to be living in the country. These are the people the Lishman coachâ€" es serve for the most part and a mighty fine job they are doing. This is something that might be taken into consideration when any more disc;i;{nisnating is done. Believe it? . . . Once upon a time a poor fellow bought himâ€" self a weekly newspaper and after he bought it he was even poorer. Then he met another man who said, "I owe you some money for that stove I advertised in your paper, but I didn‘t sell it and I don‘t see why I should pay you." When he got back to the shop a lady called up and gave him holy ned for leaving out her grandmoâ€" ther‘s maiden name in a news item she had sent him. Then a fellow got on the line and wanted to know why his name had been used in a news story without permission. "What kind of snooper are you"" he wanted to know. Next a man came in and wantâ€" ed 10,000 posters printed but would not spend more than $3.50 â€"what kind a gyp joint was this? Just as the newspaperman was getting rvadg to end it all, he dropped dead of overwork.. By and by a new man took over the paper, and when people read it they sniffed, "Humph, he sure doesn‘t know how to put out a newspaper. Too bad the other fellow had to die. He sure was a good editor " _ â€" _ Which would make a good news story if anybedy would believe it Advance elements of the atâ€" tacking forces, the H.L.I. of Galt and Oxford Rifles, came under enemy fire a few hundred yards from the river. Splitting into two flanks, they crept through the woods to the right and left of the bridge, while antiâ€"tank guns and heavy field pieces laid down a "softening up" barrage.

Air odds were reversed then, and three planes defended the ground . troops against seven attackers. While the 54th LA.A. sent up an antiâ€" aircraft barrage, the 10 Harvards displayed combat flying.

Colorful Host A _ colorful _ behindâ€"theâ€"scene character that few people knew about was jaunty retired navy captain John deMarbois. His straâ€" tegicallyâ€"located riverside home "Pinecroft" became a combined picnic ground and battle headâ€" quarters fnr_“Exorcnso Mayflowâ€" Overhead, 10 R.C.A.F.

A charge of dynamite (right) close to the Bailey bridge sends water spouting 100 feet or more. The exâ€" plosives were used throughout the scheme to give a realistic interpretation of aerial bombing. Proof of the popularity of the annual _ International â€" Plowing Match is shown by the applicaâ€" tions for exhibit space already coming in, although the match is still five months away. The event this year will take place on Octoâ€" ber 10, 11, 12 and 13. _ cos Held under the auspices of the Ontario Plowmen‘s Association, this wil} be the 37th annual comâ€" petition. The fourâ€"day match is being held near Alliston on the beautiful Nottawasaga _ Valley Plantations, where there is ample space for the big event and where it will be possible, because of large open areas, to hold the plowing contests quite close to the great "Tented City" where the exhibits are to be staged. _ _ _ This year, say officials, it will be necessary to restrict the match to more skilled plowmen, as entries have increased from year to year. There will still be, however, several events for Juâ€" nior Farmers, and two parties for juniors will be included in those eligible for trips. Pupils Anxious To Aid Flood Victims J. A. Carroll, secretaryâ€"manâ€" ager of the Association, anâ€" nounces that some $14,000 in prizes as well as 11 trips, are inâ€" cluded in the prize list. . Location of this year‘s match at Alliston, just 50 miles from Toâ€" ronto, will make it easily accessâ€" ible to everyone. Public School children of Kitchâ€" ener are anxious to aid in the flood relief program for Manitoba. Mr. Russell Buie, inspector, said that officials have been reluctant to grant permission for fund drives in schools but that this case might be allowed since many of the pupils had requested it. The plan is for eaclt Kitchener school to adopt a Manitoba school in the flood area. In this way there would be a personal touch, as subsequent cortespondence would arouse the interest of Kitchener children in life in the Canadian west. â€" Certain organization plans are already under way regarding the calling of an early convention. | Early Election Feared by Liberals No decisions were announced, but it is understood that the disâ€" cussion of three Liberal members of the Ontario Legislature who sat in on the Ontario Liberal caucus of the Commons Tuesday centred around the problems of provinâ€" cial leadership. John G. Brown (Waterloo North) was one of the MP.P.‘s taking part. â€" Behind the demand for early action in getting a leader chosen and the provincial party solidly back on its feet, is said to be the fear thatPremier Frost might deâ€" cide to ride the crest of his popuâ€" larity and call an early election. Liberals admit that if he did, they might look for nearâ€"elimination Conservative Premier Frost, as the recognized leader of the antiâ€" socialist forces could count on a good me‘asure of Liberal votes district and " fell in love with it." An ardent horseman, he has traâ€" velled the river extensively and "knows every bit of it for miles."

Of these, will is the most important." _ _ s s . "The home lays the foundation and the school continues to train the will through obedience and the formation of noble ideals," said Father Murphy. _ . He was thanked by the presiâ€" dent, Wilfred Blanchet, who also gave a report on the diocesan committee for parentâ€"teacher asâ€" sociations. ‘ The Oscar Liphardt farm, of approximately sixty acres is now a proposed induslr_nal site.

He went on to point out that Waterloo‘s actual investment would be small, "We should get our equity out as the land is sold, and our costs would be included in the resale." Mayor Bauman feels that now is the time to set up an industrial comâ€" mission office working through the Chamber of Commerce to folâ€" low up trade and industrial leads that the Toronto branch might offer. He said, "this industrial site is the wedge needed to interâ€" est the trade and industry branch of the Department of Planning and Development. to assist us in opening up other areas with deâ€" finite potentialities for industry " The mayor also felt that organizaâ€" m%‘now industries would provide C NR with the optimum haulage for the amount of track which is installed in Waterloo. â€"Chronicle Staff Photos Milk Production C# Waterloo Council Will Ask By Poor Hay Crop Milk production figures for the month of April refected last year‘s poor hay crop and this W‘s’ effects on the meadows and clover fields. Whole milk which went into butter and cheddar cheese during the month was down to 184,501,â€" m&))und; from lut"i'ear’s 195,â€" 637, pounds, according to the monthly dairy report of the Onâ€" taroi Department of Agriculture. Cut in milk production meant a drop of 4.6 per cent in the creamâ€" ery butter yield to 5,974,400 pounds, and a reduction of 9 per cent in cheddar cheese, with the province manufacturing 3,996,600 pounds during the month. The poor hay crops of last year left most farmers without any surplus of food when :Kring arâ€" rived this year. And then, wet, cold weather prevented them from turning the animals out on pasture. Even when the weather improved, many pastures had been so badly damaged by heavâ€" ing that they had to be handled very carefully for the first few weeks. Add to this the fact that the low production of last year sent prices of hay, clover and concenâ€" trates skyward. The result was that farmers kept feeding to a minimum and production dropped accordingly. e _ Cumulative rroduction of creamery butter for the first four months of this year totalled 17,â€" 272,100 pounds, a decrease of .8 per cent from the same period a year ago. Cheese production on the other hand was up 20.1 per cent to 7,511,200 pounds.. _ Evaporated whole milk producâ€" tion showed a 15.2 per cent drop during the first four months of the year, and powdered skim milk, roller process, was down 61.5 per cent, condensed whole milk down 22.5 per cent, evaporâ€" ated skim milk, up 87.1 per cent, powered skim milk, spray process, up 53.5 per cent, evaporated whole milk, bulk goods, up 43.9 Two Pay Fines For Careless Driving per cent Constable Laverne Wideman testified accused‘s car veered off the Doon road shortly after midâ€" night and struck a house. |__ _ _ Pleading guilty to careless drivâ€" ing in Waterloo Township Court Monday, Donald Cul%. 22, of 756 Elizabeth St., Kitchener, was fined $25. _ c In his defence, Culp admitted that he and his passenger friends had been drinking at the district hotel prior to the mishap, _ _ _ _ The vehicle went out of control when it struck a soft shoulder.

Lishman Lines to Reâ€"Route Waterloo Council will ask the Lishman Coach Lines to reâ€"route its buses in Waterloo.

It was discussed four years ago and abandoned because of objections from Woolwich Township.. ‘ Ten years ago, when the sysâ€" tem of appointing county assessâ€" ors was inaugurated, an amendâ€" ment to the Assessment Act made provision for appointment for an inde)pendent court to hear appeals in all parts of the county. _ _ It is said that the Municipal Arâ€" fairs Department favors the proâ€" posed system as aâ€"replacement 0/ the present one under which muâ€" nicipal councils in towns, village and townships comprise the cou for their respective municipaliâ€" ties. Principle of elected represenâ€" tatives acting as a court on asâ€" sessments is said to have i weaknesses. It is pointed out that newlyâ€"elected councillors have! little, if any, experience with o knowledge of assessments. e A county revision court would hold sittings in each municipality. It would comprise five men apâ€" pointed by County Council who would hold office at the pleasure of the council. ° â€" It was learned in a county source that the question of a perâ€" manent county court of révision may be broached at the ;gualiu- tion committee meeting May 31.

Albert Heer said the shoâ€" vel bought last year had earned the city money, but because the work was piling up the old one \_.v%s considered inadequate for the job.

Bridge, viceâ€"presiâ€" dent of the Ford Motor Company of Canada Ltd., announced last Saturday that the Canadian comâ€" pany would commence a sixday week, beginning the first week in June. Mr. Bridge said, "Although our output has been at record leâ€" vels, we are still unable to meet the demands of our dealers and customers on the basis of a fiveâ€" day week.

(Bill) Heise died in Galt last Saturday after an lengthy illâ€" ness. The prominent Preston business man was known in baseâ€" ball end hockey circles. He had held the Ontario Hockey Associaâ€" tion‘s gold pin for "meritorious" service to that organization. Ald. Frank Bauer told the Waâ€" terloo Council, that a rough estiâ€" mate on the cost of tunnelhnf the water diversion from Silver Lake to Laurel Creek, would run about $1,250,000. The duct will run via Princess St., to surface upstream of the Cedar St. bridge. City Enâ€" gineer E. W. Oke was authorized to prepare estimates on the cost of tunnelling as well as the reâ€" placement of bridges and the Under the present agreement no buses are allowed to use P.U.C. stops other than the P.U.C. buses themselves. Asking the Lishman line to reâ€"route was a matter of courtesy to the Kitchener P.UC., contended Ald. D. A. Roberts. Under the Public Vehicles Act, Waterloo, has the right to define the bus routes, said Ald. Roberts. The only problem Ald. Jerome Schneider could see with the change was the narrowness of Park St. Ald. Harry Gould felt that the argument was too trivial and did not mean a thing. He said it would be unwise to discriminate too much a?ainst the Lishman Coach Line for the service it is rendering, particularly to outâ€"ofâ€" town people. 0_ Buses Hamper P.U.C. It was claimed that the Lishâ€" man buses were hampering the _I;(liJ.C. service at rush hour perâ€" iods. Mayor Bauman saw a problem on Queen St. He said he did not like buses travelling on the narâ€" row street. When the matter was discussed further in council, Ald. Frank Bauer pointed out that the Lishâ€" man Coach Line was paying just as much taxes for road maintenâ€" ance as the P.U.C. Ald. Roberts noted that the P.U.C. was providing a service to the people of the Twin Cities. Guide Award Won By Waterloo Girls That‘s a 5â€"pound brown trout Harry Behling is holdâ€" ing here.
