Carl Hemingway Press Mis-led Readers I I 6 li "BIG 3" CAR SERVICE S10.501. Align Front Wheels... 2. Balance Front Wheels Bl S1.19 If bought separately..............’516.69 There was an interesting editorial lin the December 16/65 isisue of this paper entitled ‘/Letting in the light” quoting "The Power of the .press is a mighty sword”. Reference1 is made to “Steve” the dedicated editor of Big Town Illustrated. At least some of you with gray hair will remember this radio program where Steve, through his editorials and re­ porting was .able to defeat the ■forces of evil in one situation after another. The News-Record editorial goes on to say “Bad things — the creepy crawly slimy things 'Which can begin Where secrecy is allowed to prevail; live but a short time when exposed to the air, and close scrutiny of public opin­ ion.” So far I can agree with the editorial. The Power of the Press (which must now include radio and TV) is a mighty sword. But let us remember that the sword kills the innocent just as effectively as the guilty. The gun in the hand of a gang­ ster can defeat justice with as much efficiency a's the gun in the hand of a policeman can enforce the law. Reference is made to the formation of a School -area in the Tuckersmith-Stanley area and to FAME. As far as I am concerned the editorial implies that "there Was something creepy, crawly and slimy ’about the things that were done in the formation of this school area and in FAME. I don’t know anything about the school situation but I do know itwo men on the Tucker­ smith council "and I’m sure they would have nothing to' do with this kind of thing. With regard to FAME I know that the leadership of FAME was innocent of any kind of trick­ ery or crookedness. Certainly the Report of the Royal Com­ mission substantiates my state­ ment. But what of the Press ? What percentage of the report of the Royal Commission appeared in the press? Even what did ap­ pear1 misled the public. The one Statement that was repeated in every neWs item on FAME Was " ....... . ■ —............... ..........' the purchase of the Fearman Co. an which the farmers of Ontario lost $1,500,000. This is not a true statement as yet at least. | When a purchaser ■,fails to meet a mortgage payment the former owner can retposess the property but the value must be Ron Jewitt Wins a Dog Ronald Jewitt, a public school teacher, was the Winner of the huge yellow plush dog in the draw at Sutter-Perdue Hard­ ware on December 24. Mayor Donald E. Symons drew lucky ticket. ----------o---------- the Rev. J. T. White Funeral service was held Monday at St. John’s United Church, Springfield", for Rev. J. T. White, 81, who died Fri­ day at St. ’Thomas-Elgin Gen­ eral Hospital. Mr. White was born in the.. London area. He was a gradu­ ate of the University of Tor­ onto. In 1911 he began his minis­ terial service and held church positions in Saskatchewan for 33 years. He Went to Oakdale in Lambton County after being minister of St. John’s Church; Springfield, for four years. For six years he served at Londesboro, prior to returning to Springfield. In 1959 he was appointed assistant minister at St. Paul’s United Church, Ayl­ mer. H'is wife, the former Mary Isabella Dalziel, survives, with two daughters, Mrs. Ray (Hel­ en) Butcher, of Bramton, and Mrs. Fred (Beth) Charlton, of Springfield; three sons, Dr. William White, Springfield, III., Edward M., Bramalea, and Nor­ man, Sarnia; also a sister, Mrs. Martha Wilkin, Hamilton. determined and if the present value is greater than the bal­ ance owing, the difference must bet returned to the purchaser. This could mean ,a very sub­ stantial-return of the $l,500,000 dawn- payment. I wonder wh'ait Steve would have done in re­ porting on FAME? I wonder how many of you Saw the CBC. TV program Where it was shown how the Toronto Star arrived at its de­ cision to support the Liberal Party during the last Federal election campaign! Briefly these are the conclu­ sions’ they came to: first the panel agreed that the NDP had the best 'leader, second they a- greed that the NDP candidates on1 the average had the greatest ability; third they agreed that the NDP had the best plat­ form; fourth they agreed that the 'public was not going to change sufficiently to elect an- NDP government and that the Liberals would .be elected. Therefore the Toronto Star sup­ ported 'the liberal party. I wonder how much of the Press decided against what i't felt was right and supported what "they felt was popular? The editorial also suggests that “Steve” must have cleaned up the Whole Big Town since 'the program is no more. My guess is that “Steve” be­ came weary of well doing and sold out to the “Thompson” chain. In dosing I hope no one will think that I'am being critical of the News-Record. I know of no other paper that would publish this article, which I think is sufficient proof of their sincerity. I would 'like very much to know how many other papers will copy it as they have other artides on many occasions. f ™ A WEEK > < ONLY f \ f Torsioh Bar Af Adjustment and ,F Parts extra If, needed ■fya ft Oil Burner Service Cleanouts Done Promptly.
