Several carloads a week are imported into Vancouver and Toronto. New England potato growers have claimed their potato sur plus has been due. to Canadian imports and that the subsidy to U.S. potatoes has really meant a gift to Canadian pro ducers. —Central Press Canadian HENSALL Mr. and Mrs. A.

Scanning the SPORTS By “SCOOP” —Continued From Page Five Centralia and we think you’ll go a long way to find a better group of lads. Then, too, it was the best 'brand of hockey for young fellows to watch that has and possibly ever will be .played in the Exeter Arena. And finally we can’t go along with Derry’s last reasoning either. He did a swell job with the kids in baseball last summer and this isn’t the first we have said so in this column. We for one tried to talk him into con tinuing this fine work with the kids in hockey and it wasn’t many weeks ago he admitted to us that he should have done so. However, we’ll never believe in that obituary stuff as long as Derry Boyle can hobble to a rink or a baseball diamond. Sport has always been in his blood and he can’t flush it out that easily. This, too, is written with mal ice to no one. If we have stuck our neck out it has always been for what we thought the better ment of sport in this district, which not only includes fairness to the individual club but also to the fans as well. We don’t criticize very often. When we do in our opinion there is a good reason for it and then the re sponsibility of a democratic press is exercised, KIPPEN Mr. and Mrs. E.

Despite the fact that the intensive and maintained campaign for safety by the Department received generous support and co-operation of the press, the radio, the schools, the police, many service clubs, safety organizations, the operators and drivers of commercial vehicles and many thousands of citizens, the toll of tragedy reached an all-time high. * r’ v HERE IS THE 1949 RECORD Motor vehicles registered in Ontario 969,363 < Tourist vehicles recorded 4,300,000 Persons killed 830 Persons injured 17,469 Property damage $9,531,659 THE PICTURE IN 1950 In 1950 there will be in operation on Ontario highways one million motor vehicles owned by Ontario residents. There will be more tourist vehicles in the Province than ever before. Traffic will be much heavier, and more charices of accidents will exist. - ,,.** * Estimated motor vehicles in 1950, 1,050,000 Estimated drivers licenses in 1950, 1,350,000 Estimated tourist vehicles in 1950, 5,000,000 «».•* , Unless the Ontario public takes this problem of highway safety seriously to heart and everyone sets out to cut down this mounting scale of accidents, it is possible that in 1950 the death toll may reach a new shocking figure, with the number of persons injured keeping pace. With these facts? in view, it behooves every man and woman, young and old, to make it a personal objective to establish and maintain safety, and to preach it at all times to schools, families, drivels and acquaintances. The Department of Highways is devoting all its energies to a continuous planned attack on accidents. The earnest teamwork of all citizens and organizations is re quested. It is a Common cause that all of us can aid for the general good. GEO. H. DOUCE-TT Minister of Highways
