BERLIN, Jan. ilk-The Supreme Evangelical Council of Berlin took » steps today to stop increasing withdrawals of young people from Germany's churches.

Both church and state in Gen- ' many consider children as having , the same faith as that of their par- i ents until they are 14 years oldfi after which they may, under the , law, withdraw from their church regardlexs of their parents’ wishes.

The council advised pastors they could not legally prevent resig-‘ nations of children over 14 years old, but that they should make an i extra. effort-either directly or through parents and teachers-tel persuade suchchildren to recon- sider.

The council's statement gave n0, specific cause for the withdrawals. Paganists have started a cam- paign to have persons leave the church, but it is assumed the cur- rent resignations were caused more by a general tendency of Nazi-

from church doctrinal control.

Dealers Find Diffi- culty In Purchasing New Lots As Prices. Reach $1.65 _t0 $1.70 Per Bag. '

TORONTO, ' Jan. 1s - (om- Wholesalers are paying $1.65 to $1.70 per bag for Ontario potatoes and reported today it is becoming diffi- cullt to purchase new lots. ‘There are not enough potatoes in the province to supply the need’ Tor- onto wholesalers agreed today.

Stocks of potatoes in storage in the Milritimes Jan. 2, this year were given in Federal reports as 61,000 hundredwciglht more than last year. Montreal and Quebec showed a m- duction in stocks of 25600 hundred- weight, and Ontario reduction of holdings is 278440 hundred/weight, a total reduction for Eastern Can- ada of 364,240 hundred weight.

“When the 1936 crop came to market early in July, the 1935 crop was practically all consumed, and the new crop went immediately in- to consumption," said J. T. Cassin‘ President. of the Ontario Potato “This con- dition prevailed in Eastern Cana- da and United statcs."

“Prices will continue at about $1.00 per bag to the consumer un- til spring, when they may reach the $3 and $4 levels of 1928"’ said Sam-

the many improvements that have ‘pm made in all de- _ l, partments. The biggest item of ex- penditure was street work, $10,- - ;. 675.83 being spent on a. street pro- gram, in which 31,448 square yards or permanent paving was laid and 6,000 feet of sewer. $2,720.66 was Spent on side walks. Other high , spots in the expenditure are $727.06 spent 0n the Library which is one of the finest in the Province and was moved early in the spring to the old Agricultural Building. It is up-to-datc in. every detail and a decided asset to the town.

PUBLIC HEALTH

public health utilities. An up-to- date refrigerator has been pur- g chased for the abbatoir so that

citizens can be sure of their meat i supply being properly cooled and hung before it is put on the market. This improvement has supplied s. long felt need in the town.

The expenditure under the head- ing of Abbatloir is $1205.07 and the revenue from this source was $1,- 332.75, showing a small surplus.

The town now has a Public Health centre and clinic, all new additions this year. About 6247.00 was spent on these improvements. The Board of Health operated at a. cost of $168.95.

SEA WALL

Another valuable asset to the townlbuilt. by the present Council is 2200 feet of concrete breast work east and west. on the water front. The Provincial and Federal Gov- ernment grants helped finance this project.

BRIGHT SPOTS IN THE FINANCIAL STATEMENT

Among the bright spots in the financial statement are the follow- ing: Electric Light Committee paid into the Town treasury $9,000.00. Receipts from the airport were

"$51.00 more than justifying the loperating costs of $184.86. Total | assessments amounted to $44,978.63. Poll tax and Judgments $3,592.25. Licences $2,430.00.

Mayor Robinson and his Coun- cil expressed the viewpoint. that although the expenditures were heavy the work accomplished more than justified the expense and tllat the improvements were s. de- cided asset to the town.

The splendid contribution of $9.- f 000.00 from the Electric Light Plant enabled the Town Council to keep down the taxes to a. great extent.
