He has many calls upon this and has been expending about £300

per week ln relief, i With his consent. I am appeal- ing on behalf of the Fund for . stamps of all kinds fused and un- ‘usedt, and if you would kindly co-operate by mentioning this in your newspaper tn the hope that readers would assist. by sending gifts of stamps to me at the above address, I should be most grateful.

J. TAY. Clerk of the Justices, Portsmouth, Eng, 5th, August, 1941.

an Englishman is starting a move- ment that. may be more lnltating. and effective than the "V" cam-l palgn. The Idea is always to refer w Hitler by his real name, Adolphe Sohickelgruber! Much of the hor- rible success of the Nazis has been due to the terror inspired by the very name of Hitler. know. terror paralyzes, and" whole

populations have been rendered

helpless by the fearful connotations

surrounding the name of Hitler.

Perhaps in the beginning, substitut-

lng his real name, Adolph Schlckel-

gruber, might not have worked, but

now that ttiie first. shock L! over and

he is meetlni ma! resistance every-

the Suggestion cf always calllng this; power-besotted, hate-drunken spawn - of Evil, b the mirth provoking

name. Ado ph Schlckelgruber!

Adolph Schiekelgruber, you em- anatlonct all that is distorted, here- by we give you back your ma! name! May it be a festering sore on your monstrous vanity! May it loosen the bands of fear and give rise to the laughter that. brings action and courage!

Adolph. Schlckelgruber, you pols- onous reptile, do not, pride yourself on the havoc you have wrought! You have been able to get so far, only because the vast majority of; people could not even imagine such depths of depravity as you and those you have infected with your venom, have shown!

Your fangs shall be drawn! Time will heal the wounds, not you, Adolph schlckelgruber, have ln- fllcted, but the Powers of Darkness existing everywhere, of which you are but the mouth-Piece and instru- ment! Through you, it may well be, decent people everywhere, f9;- ages l0 COMO. will be on their guard, al- ways. against hate and nnbrldled vanity and lust for power!

CaptuRiead got command of the Car Ferry because of oontradlctory charges laid against the ships for- mer Master. The Department at 0t.- tawa was informed the reason he was dismissed was lncompetencml which by the way only a marine tribunal can determine. At the same‘ time the railway authorities at Moncton charged hlm with drum’- enness and while for only two davs 11th and 12th of October. they we-‘e allowed witnesses, he was denied! them, until thev were forced, utter] a long tight. of almost four years, to grant. an investigation. at. which C. N. R. was judge and ury which was obviously wrong m t. e first place.

At tnls investigation, Ca tafn John Leturgey Read gave evl once supporting charge of drunkenness but when cross examined admitted he was mistaken and. dld so on the plea of short. memory. Yet: this as the man who has the effrontery to write “1 have never been forced to stoop to such tactics."

H. J. Page, who conducted the in- vestigation, tn his report to D. B. Hanna, then President of C. N. 1%., specified the evidence of Capt. Road as justifying the dismissal of Capt. Murchison on charge of drunken- ness. Whlle Capt.» Murchison was on Borden route he was without his first and second officer, and yet the Guardian of that. date says: "Everything worked like ilock

'. There Ls a. letter from the Minister of Railways saying abut the Captain was dismissed for iri- competience and that. he could. not. assiune the responsibility of endmg- erlng the roperty of the Depart- ment and Ives of assengers. Yet a. snort while therea W!‘ he was ask- ed by the some Department to go on S. S. Stanley until Ca taln of the Stanley got used to rou e.

Capt. Murchison injured nelcherl property nor passengers, nor, did he use his ship; but went to his grave with this in! ultous charge and denial of pens on. and that. after long years of faithful and efficient service. H. J. Page, who conducwd the investigation, Mr. Hayes, gen- eral manager of C. N. R., at, Mom:- ton and Knowlton. inspector of Car Ferries were all dismissed from C. N. R., but. jnsttoe was never given to Ga taln Murchison.

It time that; such should cease and this good fnl, and efficient former servant's name be cleared.

There should be a fair, impardal investigation into the loss of the . S. Charlottetown and it should be publtshed and blame placed not where Captain Read says it should be placed-l. e. "on the Brltlsh Ad- mirailty" or “man on tug boat," but. where ft. rlzhtfullv belongs.
