DON CARTER of the Wingham Business Association pt Bents gifts to Sergeant Ron
Zimmer of the Wingham Town Police and John P. Fitz'pat.ick of the Bank of Montreal.
Mr. Fitzpatrick, a special agent with the Master Charge division specializing in fraud,
was guest speaker at last Wednesday's meeting.
Business Assoc. meeting
hears speaker on frauds
"Will that be cash or charge?"
is a common question every-
where today — in stores, hotels
and even restaufants. It's a
simple choice, but a dangerous
one, according to John P. Fitz-
patrick, guest speaker at the
Wingham Business Association
meeting last Wednesday. night.
Mr. Fitzpatrick is an ex -police-
man working with the Bank of
Montreal as a security special
agent for Master Charge. He is an
expert on frauds and illegal uses
of charge and credit cards.
"We're heading into sort of a
cashless society," Mr. Fitzpat-
rick explained. "You've got it
and you're stuck with it."
Not that he has anything
against the use of credit cards:
they are convenient, useful, ac-
cepted everywhere. But they
have opened up a new area of
danger for business enterprises
everywhere — and a new gener-
ation of criminals.
".1 a paper hanger (cheque
forger) is finding -it very bard to
cash cheques in banks and stores
these days, so he's changing to
credit cards," Mr. Fitzpatrick
explained. His department in the
central division has close to 500
credit card frauds under investi-
gation at the present for a total of
almost $130,000. The frauds ac-
count for less than half a per cent

of the entire `credit card gener-
ation' but Mr. Fitzpatrick hopes
to kill the credit card racket
completely.
Fraudulent methods to date
have been restricted to the illegal
use of `real' cards, but Mr. Fitz-
patrick suggested that counter-
feit cards would be entering
Canada next year: "Thep, we'll
be in for it!"
The credit card business "is a
million dollar deal," Mr. Fitzpat-
rick said, "and it's vuhierable."
He explained the methods used
by the 'card sharps' to obtain the
cards: mostly theft from the mail
or through contacts with hookers,
body parlor operators, pick pock-
ets.
He cautioned that it was the
public that would end up paying
for the losses in the end: "The
general public is being ripped off
for millions and millions of dol-
lars. You're going to pay for it —
one way or another."
Following -a film on "A Short
Lesson in. Fraud," demonstrating
the various techniques used to
defraud business. enterprises,
Mr. Fitzpatrick urged all busi-
nessmen to exercise due caution
in accepting credit cards.
"You're in a pretty honest area
here," he said, "but it could hap-

Pro-life group begins
•
speaking ing engagements •
The Wingham and district pro-
life group, now known as Alliance
for Life (Wingham Branch) had
its first speaking engagement for
1975-76 with Sacred Heart C.W.L.
of Wingham.
"Abortion, How It Is", a 30- .
minute slide &id tape presenta-
tion by Dr. and Mrs. J. C. Wilke,
depicted true, documented facts
on abortion and a question period
followed. -
-The education committee
pointed out that Canadian law
states that abortion may be done
for women if a pregnancy "would
or would be likely to endanger
her life or health". According to
the law abortions must be done in
accredited hospitals where
therapeutic abortion committees
comprised of three or more
doctors rule on such ahortions.
The iz ent of aw t'as that
aboih ns e b or dilly very
serious reasons.
However, the law is being
abused. A too -wide interpretation
of the word .health is being em-
ployed. Abortions are being done
for social and economic reasons
and, in effect, in some of our
Canadian hospitals we have
abortion on demand. One
Canadian doctor described his
hospital as a "fetal abattoir".
In 1974, five major hospitals in
Toronto performed an estimated
7,230 abortions. The abortion rate
in Canada has risen steadily from
500 in 1969 to 43,201 in 1973. While
the federal government enacts
the criminal law, it does not
administer or Apply it. Enforce-
ments of the criminal law in rela-
tion to abortion, as in other
matters, depends upon the action
of the Attorney General of each,
province.
The education committee also
pointed out that there is a great
need for a change in attitudes in
society re the pregnant unwed
girl. By looking down at her we
-could indirectly be the cause of
an abortion. There is a great need
for supportive groups who would
befriend and help distressed
pregnant girls or any woman who
is pregnant and distressed during
and after pregnancy. This is only
one humane solution to a problem
pregnancy.
Goforth meeting theme
is "Fact andIssve"
"Fact and Issue"' was the
theme of the regular meeting of
the Goforth Evening Auxiliary.
held last Tuesday evening at St.
Andrew's Presbyterian Church.
Mrs. Murray Underwood and
her group were in charge of the
meeting which opened with a call
to worship followed by a hymn.
Mrs. Kenneth. McKague led the
responsive scripture reading
from Psalm 145.
Guest musician was Stephen
MRS. RICHARD CAMPEAU and Alexander Sproal were installed Sunday as 'auxiliary
ministers' at the Wingham Sacred Heart Church. Along with two other 'ministers' in-
stalled Saturday, they will help in giving the Eucharist at the Sunday assemblies and
bring Communion to sick members of the parish.
Burke who presented "How
Great Thou Art", "Amazing
Grace" and "Do Lord" on the
piano accordion. Miss Merle Wil-
son dedicated the offering.
The meditation was given by
Mrs. Ted English and Mrs. Ken-
neth Leitch and took the form of a
debate concerning the facts and
issues of the Ten Command-
ments.
The Ten Commandments are
sometimes called God's outline of
the moral constitution of His uni-
verse. He gave the direction in
which our lives should move to
find fulfilment. When God gave
the Ten Commandments He knew
that no one could keep them. But
they were given as a mirror.
When we look into them, we see
ourselves and how short we come
in meeting God's requirement.
Thoughts for the week were
given by Mrs. Underwood and a
hymn was sung. Members of the
group participated in a game
called "'The Mall" and each
player drew a card stating a
consequence of an issue or fact.
Many thought-provoking con-
temporary issues were discussed
as well as pertinent facts re-
vealed concerning missionaries
and Bible characters.
Mrs. Ralph Nixon and Mrs.
Robert Campbell took charge of
the balance of the meeting and
tribute was paid to Mrs. Harold
Brooks, a devoted Goforth
member, who passed' away last
week.
Plans were made to attend im-
portant area meetings to be held
in the near future. They are the
Teeswater Presbyterian Thank -
offering meeting, on October 2;
Belmore Thankoffering meeting
October 15; and the fall rally of
the Maitland Presbyterial held in
St. Andrew's church, Wingham,
on October 22. Missionary Lillian
Dickson of Taiwan will also speak
in St. Andrew's church, Wing -
ham, on Friday, October 24, All
ladies in the area are cordially
invited to attend these meetings.
Mrs. Nixon closed the meeting
with prayer and refreshments
were served.
