Two safes were stolen iu this dis-
trict and were blown open and ran-

rock Creamery at Centralia, owned by
Canada Packers, was found abandon
ed about two miles east of Moores

s between the creamery and the office;
The marks where the safe had beets
r shd across the floor were finite vis-
a ible. Vouchers and a sum of money

FOREIGN EXCHANGE ACQUISITION ORDER
IMPORTANT (;OTiCE
As announced by the Minister of Finance, the Foreign Exchange Acquisi-
tion Order, 19.40, has been enacted by Order -in -Council under the authority
of the War Measures Act.
Unless exempted by the Order, every resident of Canada who, on May
1st, 1940, has any foreign currency in his possession, ownership or control,
whether in Canada or outside Canada, is required forthwith to sell such
foreign currency to an Authorized Dealer (i.e. a branch of a chartered
bank) for payment in Canadian dollars at the official buying rate of the
Foreign Exchange Control Board.
"Foreign currency", for the purposes of the Order, means any cur-
rency (excluding coin) other than Canadian currency and includes bank
notes, postal notes, money orders, cheques, travellers' cheques, prepaid let-
ters of credit, bank drafts and other similar instruments payable in any
currency other than Canadian currency, and also includes any amount in
foreign currency of which a resident has a right to obtain payment by rea-
son of a deposit, credit or balance of any kind at or with a bank, savings
bank, trust company, loan company, stockbroker, investment dealer Or
other similar depository.
The Order does not require the sale of any foreign securities.
The Order does not affect any foreign currency, deposit or securities
of any non-resident of Canada and for greater certainty the Order ex-
pressly declares that a non-resident visiting Canada for business or pleas-
ure for a period or periods not exceeding six months in the year continues
to be a non-resident for the purposes of the Order unless such person
enters or has entered Canada with the intention of becoming a permanent
resident.
No resident is required to sell any foreign currency if he satisfies
the Foreign Exchange Control Board that he held such foreign currency
on May 1st, 1940, solely as trustee or agent for a non-resident and that
the non-resident's interest therein had not been acquired from a resident
since September 15th, 1939, except in a manner approved by the Board.
Under certain conditions stipulated in Section 1 (b) of the Order
a resident who is not a Canadian citizen may be granted exemption, but
only after application for exemption is approved by the Board.
No life insurance company incorporated in Canada is required by the
Order to sell any foreign currency which it needs for the purpose of carry-
ing on its business outside Canada.
Further particulars may be obtained from branches of chartered
banks. Any resident who has any foreign currency in his possession,
ownership or control on May 1st, 1940, regardless of amount, should con-
sult his bank at once in order to ascertain the extent to which he is
affected by the Order.

Stop Removal of Famous Boller—
The boiler of the wrecked "Erie
Belle" which has been a landmark on
the beach south of Kincardine for
many years, was almost removed Sat-
urday, and had not residents of
that area been vigilant and quick to
act in calling ponce, the landmark
would be long vanished. An Owen
Sound junk dealer, giving the name of
White, had all the equipment neces-
sary to hoist the heavy piece of metal
on to a special truck, and had almost
completed the task when Chief of
Police R. C. McKenzie arrived, in re-
sponse to a call from Reeve Ben
Logan of Huron township, and others.
