Westmount Has | Declared War On Ragweed -* at Was - anhouniced Jast week : that war has\u2019 been \u2018déélared .on 2% ragweed.This \u2018common pest is an untidy, «innocuous < looking weed which \u2018thrives on sparse soil, and is common.ih vacant.lots, along roadsides, and \u2018in uncultivated soll.\u201d © Causes \u2018Hay Fever ; In addition to being unsightly, {| however, ragweed causes untold misery every year, to the great number of unfortunate \u2018hay fever sufferers who are allergic to its pollen.It is estimated that about 85% of hay fever is due to ragweed.It usually commences around the middle of August when the ragweed stawts to pol- liriate, and - continues \u2018until the first frost in the fall.Since hay fever is caused by ragweed pollen, an effort is being made to relieve hay fever victims by destroying the plant before it pollinates.To this end, West- mount and all other municipall- ties of Montreal are co-ordinat- ing their efforts to eliminate the noxious weed.Cleanup Every Year Thé Westmount Parks Department, as a matter of fact, has been combatting ragweed and other noxious plants for several years.The method has been to cut the weeds in all vacant lots, roadsides, etc., before the plants flower in an effort to prevent pollination.This also prevents plant reproduction.This may entail cutting two or three times in the season, and hand-weeding as well.New Weed Killer To reinforce these efforts, plans have been made to make extensive use, this year, of the chemical weed killer 2-4D which has been proven highly effective.It is hoped, eventually, to rid the district of this bane of hay \u2018fever victims.Unity Club Baseball Teams Play Boys\u2019 Farm The Junior and Senior baseball teams of the Unity Boys\u2019 Club of Westmount, journeyed last Saturday by bus to Shawbridge, where they played the teams of the Boys' Farm.The Unity Club Juniors beat\u201d the Boys\u2019 Farm Juniors 21-9.The Unity Club Seniors lost to the Boys' Farm Seniors 13-8, Everyone had a good time.A return game is planned for next Thursday evening, when the -Boys\u2019 Farm Teams will come down to play the Unity Club teams.on diamond No.4 in West- mount Park, 7 Westmount Has Series Of Minor Accidents Reports from Westmount Po- | lice and- Fire Departments indi- tate that things are pretty quiet around this district these days.There have been .no fires, no crimes, and no sorious accidents lately.King of the #\u201d Strange to say, however, there has been an epidemic of minor traffic accidents; no one fit, but minor damage here and there \u2014not much\u2019 individually, but the aggregate damage of all -the accidents is considerable.: The.frequency \u201cof such accidents seem to run in aporadie cycles without * apparent\u2018 reiisolt, SERN \u2018Cho, aminer Serving the City of W esimount, Garden Suburb of Canada\u2019 s s Metropolis Hardwood Floors -

she read about \u2018Petunia,\u201d a cute little skunk from \u2018the Bronx Zoo in New York, who has been taken to visit the children in the, public schools, and she decided she would like to have one.She wrote to the Bronx Zoo for information, and was referred to the Chase Wild Animal Farm at Egypt, Mass, which, it seems, specializes definitely not of the usual domesticated variety.A skunk was ordered about two months ago, and last week, the little fellow arrived at his new home.Only a_few weeks old, the new arrival is really cute.He endured his long journey very well, ager.Bobby Matthews was elected.\\ Winners of the Prince Albert Scavenger Hunt were: 1st team, John Swaine and Garth Pierce;

Perhaps you have noticed that.Some of them actually expect to be paid for putting a few lines in the paper boosting that supper that is coming off next week at fifty cents a head, or that bingo which is being operated to buy mittens for the polar bears.Why, it is only a few lines! Talk about \u201cstingies.\u201d In mentioning recently that newspapers had to live we were told that we made our living on selling papers.People do not realize that all the money we get from selling newspapers would not keep us going more than six weeks.It is advertising that makes it possible for your district to have a newspaper.* + + Every newspaper has a special responsibility and privilege, altogether apart from its commercial existence, and we are steadily reminded, as we should be, that it is our obligation to climb well above any monetary position.Newspapers abide by this remipder.By and large, they comprise an industry that is more willing to part with its chief stock in - trade, on a voluntary basis of free donation, than any other in the entire nation.On the other hand they must pay their bills or will soon find themselves out of business.- : The swift readiness of most newspapers to donate their commercial product \u2014 their space\u2014to a multitude of causes, has long \u2018since blinded the public to the fact that an actual donation was being made.All of this is written for the purpose of explaining the oddness of newspaper folks when they ask to be paid for their work just as other people do and are.\u2014 Shawinigan Standard.TO OUT-FOX COMMUNISTS Speaking of Communist infilration into unions, David Dubinsky, head of the Ladies\u2019 Garment Workers in New York recently .minority who recognized an occasion when \u2018posed, we \u2018hope unalterably, to higher un- made some wise recommendations to all union members.He urged, in brief, that every member attend union meetings, learn what is going on, and exercise every opportunity to vote.; This is corroboration from an authoritac tive source ef a suspicion widely held, that union meetings are attended mainly by a relatively small percentage of members.The unanimous vote of those present may not be fairly representative of the number of persons directly affected by the decisions announced.; Ç One further idea.Unions might consider inserting clauses in their constitutions requiring that all meetings adjourn not later than 11 p.m., or at least that no votes be permitted after that hour.This would work against filibusters designed to empty the hall of the less racalcitrant members who weary of argument and want some sleep.One even has heard of a church assemblage having a resolution put over on it by a the majority would be absent.>» .WAGES OUGHT TO BE HIGHER! ; Wages, real wages, have never been as high as they might have been if all workers produced as efficiently as healthful effort would permit.Wages have always been too low because most people are allergic to the kinds of work for which they are fitted.The great majority of people prefer idleness to work.They are not sufficiently interested in acquiring the things other people are willing to earn by work, writes John Atkins in The Scene from Shingwauk Farm.\u2018 Our constant criticism of pressure groups (may it never lag) and the too-much money they extort for too-little work, does not mean that we are opposed to higher wages.In fact, we favor the highest wages consistent with the wealth produced and the expansion of efficient, profitable industries.We are op- real wages, because wages which are not based on increased production per person are extracted from the real wages of all other workers.Unless the electrical workers each produce more electrical goods per hour, any increase in their wages must be taken from\u2019 farmers and others who must work more hours to get cost-reducing production equipment, and conveniences for their homes.More production per person by electrical workers and farmers increases all real wages.people out of business and thou- WEEKLY REVIEW Political Situation In Britain By LEWIS MILLIGAN sands out of work.The same thing is happefting in Britain today as a result of the rush into nationalizion.So far as the nationalization of the coal mines and, the railroads is concerned, there had been a growing feeling among Conserva- Speaking from London over the CBC, Matthew Halton gave an interesting review of the political situation in Britain.His broadcasts have hitherto appeared to me to be decidely prejudiced in favor of the socialist policy of the Labor Government, and he has seemed to take every opportunity of deriding the \u201cTories\u201d.But in this review he tried to take a middle course by giving a boost to the Liberal Party, which he believed was in the ascendant and the chief hope for the political salvation of Britain from communism on the one hand and extreme Toryism on the other.Mr.Halton\u2019s review consisted largely of quotations from Clement tives as well as Liberals that these two highly - developed industries must eventually come under government - ownership.They did not regard this as a step toward Socialism, any more than a Conservative government of Ontario intended the Hydro Electric System as a move in that direction.As Clement Davies says: \u201cThe test of nationalizing an industry must be, will it be.more or less efficient than THE EXAMINER, FRIDAY, JULY 18, 1947 Davies, the Liberal Party and a \u201clifelong follower of Lloyd George,\u201d with whom he had an interview.He quoted Mr.Davies as saying: The moderate socialists are really radicals: Liberals who deserted Liberalism because it was not moving fast enough.They're not true socialists \u2014 that is, Marxists.And this country will never go Marxist.But the tragedy is that it may gradually be pushed into it, though the socialist leaders may have the best intentions in the world.Just as there is a danger of dictatorship, even of Fascism, from the Conservatives, so there's a danger of Marxian dictatorship from the true socialists.\u201d That, of course, 18 a Liberal Party leader speaking.There may be some truth in it so far as the socialists are concerned, but I doubt if there are any Conservatives in England \u2014 certainly not among the party leaders \u2014 who would stand for Fascism any more than Socialism.I recall that, in one of his speeches delivered in the House parliamentary leader of of Commons before the war, Winston Churchill declared that if he had to choose between living under Fascism or Communism \u2014 which he hoped he never would have to do \u2014 he would prefer Communism.The fact of the matter is \u2014 and it is an historical fact \u2014 that most of the reforms of lasting benefit to the British people as a whole have been passed by Conservative governments.It may be true that many of these reforms were in the first place advocated by the Liberal Party and were subjected to searching criticism from the Conservatives.But that is the chief purpose of the Conservative Party to conserve all that is best and modify extreme or hasty measures of reform that might upset the economic balance of the nation and thus injure the very people they were intended to help.Such was the effect of certain measures in the Lloyd George budget of \u20181910, which brought about a slump in property values and put a lot- of realized under private enterprise?\u201d And he adds: \u201cSo far, the socialists have worked on that principle: but one day they will find themselves forced into nationalizing things for doctrine sake; and that's when freedom will go.\u201d The Labor Government saw the danger signal when it halted at the point of notionalizing the steel and textile industries.They that those industries were involved in far - reaching ramifications of international trade and commerce which called for free and alert private enterprise at home and abroad.Asked where British Liberals stand in the controversy about Russia, Mr.Davies replied: \u201cWhere can we stand?You may not like Russian Communism or American capitalism.But in America there is spiritual freedom, free speech and a free press.Given that, everything else will come.Without it, nothing else can come.\u201d here can be no doubt as to which the British people would choose if the Conducted by Howard S, Ross, Ca d .C.In Which Subjects of General Interest Are Discussed e Thé opinions expressed In thi this newspaper, and it does no accept responsibility for them.Now, that dikes are breaking» through in many places \u2018along the Mississippi and the rich corn land being seriously damaged, there is, of course, great glee in corn circles because the prices of corn have been mounting rapidly, but \u2018we should not blame the corn dealers, they are simply following the rules of our present system, and how pitiful it is that we are all cursed by an artificial scarcity economy.Instead,of spending time blaming those who do business according to the rules of business as we have them, we should spend more time on working out a social order based upon justice to all and which would give us a system based upon abundance.* + #% Kirby Page, veteran lecturer and publicist on a national tour of the U.S.A.for the American Friends Service( Committee, gave three addresses in Central Methodist Church, Utica, N.Y.State.He urged that the U.S.make an effort to penetrate the Russian \u201cjron curtain\u201d, seeking to gain the confidence of the Russian people and to change their viewpoint.He considers it to be a vain \u201chope that communism in Russia will collapse.The only effective policy, he said, is to change the Russian attitude, but this will require a- parallel or previous change in the U.S.A.He considers it possible to reach an agreement with Russia to disarm and thus to open the road to strengthening the United Nations.Drunkenness is decreasing in Glasgow, Scotland.There were 3,275 convictions for drunkenness in 1946;

the duties are less glamorous, but not less vital to humanity.Now that the transition from war to peace is nearly completed, the Canadian Red Cross Corps has taken stock of its strength and of work that lies ahead.Due to that some adjustments have been necessary.\u2018 One of these adjustments was to incorporate into one umit the four different units which func~ tioned in time of war.There was the Office Administration Unit, the Transport Section, the \u201cNursing Auxiliary and the Food Administration Section.The unit which now takes in all four is called simply \u201cGeneral Service\u201d.The change has even involved a new uniform\u2014one smart, tailored suit to replace the four different uniforms which made Canadian Red Cross girls well-known in a dozen different countries.Very ghortly we shall be seeing these new peacetime uniforms on our streets.The present strength of the Corps\u2019 in Montreal is about 150 members.In Quebec City there is about a third that number and the other large cities in Canada have also their detachments of the Corps.In the Province of Quebec, Miss Edith Nicolson is the commandant of this famous corps of young women.The Montreal Detachment is commanded by Miss Isobel Hulme and the Quebec City detachment by Mrs.Russell Han- nan.In the autumn there will be a recruiting campaign right across Canada for the purpose of adding further to the ranks of the Red Cross Corps.In tke meantime, if you or someone you know well, would like to join, it is very likely that the Corps would consider the application very seriously\u2014because the amount of work to be done exceeds the number of Corps members available to do it.This is perhaps particularly true in the transport section\u2014certainly it is particularly true in the summer A A \u201cwhen many of the girls go away for a period of rest and relaxation.Recently the Corps in Montreal has been busy with many duties that concern the establishment and operation of the newly re-or- ganized Montreal Branch of the Canadian Red Cross.One of the busiest groups have been the transport giris.They have been driving invalided soldiers to and from hospital and teaching these handicapped veterans how to drive a car in spite of their handicaps.: Still other Corps girls have been busy helping paraplegics to get exercise by swimming in tanks.of water.Other have been keeping up the library service which Red Cross maintains in several hospitals where veterans are still under treatment.It must be remembered that there are still many veterans in hospital.In the Province of Quebec alone there are close to three thousand lads whose war wounds still keep them hospitalized.The Corps girls _händicrafts to the veterans\u2014after having first taken a course themselves so as to be ahead of their If you were at the fair at Orms- town a few weeks ago, you per- hapa saw some of these Red Cross girls with the forty five veterans they drove from Ste.Anne.These outings are greatly apreciated by the boys in hospital.were the two Corps girls picked by Red Cross to fuifil this assignment.Many people wondered, after the war, whether there would be enough work to warrant .ke®ping the Red Cross together and whether enough young ladies would be interested in serving humanity in the Corps in peacetime.There seems no doubt now that there is plenty that needs \u2018tô be done and\u201d \u2019 that Canadian girls are rendy to do it.The new blood bank of the Red Croés alone will keep many of them busy-\u2014once it gets estab- \u2018|lished across the country.pupils.Of Westmount In one respect, Westmount has the longest history of any locality in America, north of Mexico.An ancient Indian burying ground was discovered in 1898 on the grounds of the Saint George's Club, which apparently belonged to a \u2018period previous to the fifteenth century.The type .of burial appears to be related to the stone-lined graves of the Xlinois and other ancient Algonquin tribes of .the Mississippi Valley, and was different from that of the Hochela- lgans who occupied the Islañd of| Montreal from about the year 1400.es The graves of the Westmount Indians do .not: contain any: pôt« those of thé Hochelagans.They The Indians - +) \u201cleach day send an average of 1, CP Pacific sleeping cars Da « BF Canadian 238 sheets, 1,370 pillow slips and 1,712 face towels tothe laundries of a dozen Canadian cities, it is shown in figures released by T.therefore, evidently belong to a time earlier than the fifteenth century.CT The Hochelagans following the people of the stone-lined graves M.McKeown, manager of were the second-known-posessors \u2018of the site of \u2018Westmount.- ing and dining cars.Sleep.The figures showed it oop $336,000 lait year to have 4,5 sheets, _ 5,000,000 pillow ali \u201d and 6,280,000 face towels wag, and ironed for CPR.sleeping : cars.Laundries In Halifax, John, Montreal, Sudbury, Toronto, Saint : Winnipeg Regina, Moose aw, ;
