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

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.
