One brother, John, is in business in Bos,- tno, Mass. The other brother, Lawr- ence, awnence, .of Strath?rd, is the father of Mrs. Elmo, Howey, who died of shock at Tillsonburg last week after her husband and three children had been killed ina crossing crash. The tragic accident that befell the Howey fam- ily resulted in Mr. and Mrs. Fulton deciding to spend their anniversary without celebration of any kind. Only a few years ago their granddaughter was killed in a car accident in Toron- to. Mr. Fulton has six sisters: Mrs. Andrew Bruce, Grey Township; Mrs. John Docherty, Blyth; Mrs. Dave Chesney, Winnipeg; Mrs, Ed. Bruce, Miami, Man.; Mrs. Harry Charters, Seaforth, and Mrs. N. Gillies, Buffa- lo. One daughter, Mrs. James S. Armstrong, resides in Grey Township, and a second daughter, Mrs. 11. M. Clerke, lives in Toronto. " Produce More to Boost Dollar Addressing shareholders of The Dominion Bank at the annual meet- ing in Toronto on Dec. 10, Mr: C. H. Carlisle, president, dealt with the de- preciation of the Canadian dollar's purchasing value, sounded a strong note against threatened regimenta- tion of the Canadian economy and people, and called for more' adequate military measures in the face of dis- turbed world conditions in which Rus- sia was the principal factor in an attempt at world domination. i "Why has the purchasing value of your dollar decreased?" he asked, noting the rising coats, of commodi- ties and services and the drop of 45 per cent in the dollar's' purchasing power since 1935-39. "Largely through the high cost of living, due princi- pally to insufficient volume of pro- duction and higher costs of produc- tion. Another cause Is the appalling. and unnecessary loss due to strikes." "The demand which has, existed for many years, and is now enforced, for higher pay and less production is il- logical, uneconomical;" said Mr. Car- lisle, warning also against the same tendency lately prevalent in the mat- ter of executive salaries.
