in Ontario More than twothirds of the people interviewed during the survey just completed faVored evening shopping This was the third similar poll in recent weeks all three having indicated a strong public demand for even ing shopping privileges The polls and results were as follows City of Kitchener by Gruneau Research Limited percent favored evening shop ping All of Ontario by Gru Research per cent favored evening shopping Recently member newspapers in the Canadian Institute of Pub lic Opinion Gallup Poll pub lished results of nationwide study on the same issue reveal ing that percent of the public favored evening shopping In the most recent Ontario sur vey as in those for Kitchener and for all Canada the major objec tion proved to be the fear that if stores remained open in the evenings clerks might have to work longer hours However when it was pointed out that store clerks were protected from exploitation under other provin cial laws and that evening shop ping would not result in longer hours a good deal of such oppo sition was withdrawn The Ontario survey covered rural areas towns under in population and cities Of those who said they would like to have the stores open one even ing a week the largest percent age was recorded in the towns where percent of those ques tioned were in favor compared with percent in cities and percent in rural areas Rural areas comprise per cent of Ontarios population towns 124 percent and cities percent Information for the Ontario survey was gathered by recog nized sampling techniques through interviews with men and women across the province in cities and towns and on farms The purpose of the survey was to determine the attitudes of a crosssection of Ontario persons toward the evening opening of stores The question has become a controversial one in a number of centres in Ontario and else where in Canada BIRTHDAY The percentage of those inter viewed for the Ontario survey is made up of those who said they would like stores open one even ing a week percent those not in favor of one evening open ing a week but in favor of two evenings percent and those who when first questioned said they were not in favor of even ing shopping but when asked if they would be in favor if clerks did not have to work more hours said Yes percent The predominant reason given for wanting evening shopping was that it would be handy for people who work Other reasons given were that it would J ally be more convenient that children could not be left during the day that husband and wife can shop together that stores are less crowded at night The predominant reason given for not wanting evening shop ping was that there was no ad vantage to it and that people can shop just as easily during the day The second reason for op posing evening shopping was be cause of concern for employees but nearly half of these Indicated that they would favor evening shopping if employees were pro tected against overwork The Newmarket police finger printing department had a busy year in Chief Byron Bur- said in his annual report to council There were 19 calls for fingerprint examinations the majority by neighboring municipalities There were cases where fingerprints were found at the scene of the crime Of these were suitable for identification purposes and were referred to files in Ottawa One of these cases con tinued Chief Burbidge that comes to mind was reported in the Gazette It was a case where a fingerprint was the only evidence that linked the suspect with the crime On the morning of August 24 the Newmarket police depart ment received a radio call from township for assistance by a fingerprint man in a house breaking investigation When the officer from the Newmarket identification section arrived he learned that a burglar had bro ken into a house stealing a watch and cigarette lighter be fore stealing the owners new convertible A latent impression was found by the Newmarket officer at the point of entry a window It was photographed and sent to the offices On Sept the Newmarket police received a telegram from the that a man being held in custody in Toronto on a charge of trespassing was the one wanted for the township robbery The finger print evidence taken by the Newmarket police identified him and when he appeared in New market magistrates court the suspect pleaded guilty and was sentenced to two years less a day Safe Crackers Another case in which the Newmarket fingerprinting de partment rendered valuable as sistance was on October in Aurora Chief said Thieves had broken into the I A store there and had at tempted to break open the safe but had been scared away before they had finished their job When the Newmarket police arrived workmen from the safe company were preparing to drill open the safe so that the store could be opened for business The Newmarket officer noticed a substance trickling out of the bottom of the safe Upon testing it by taste he recognized it as nitroglycerine He called Dr Ward Smith from the Attorney Generals labora tory to neutralize it Dr Smith later credited the Newmarket of ficer with having saved lives He said that if the workmen had been permitted to begin drilling the people in the store would have been seriously injured and The Newmarket Era and possibly killed Cheque Artists Forgers operating in the dis trict provided additional work for the identification section of the Newmarket police Mr added Of these case fin gerprints were found on six cheques which later helped to identify criminals and led to their conviction Other duties of the identifica tion section included the copying of photographs of wanted and missing persons Copies of well- known criminals photographs were made and these proved of great assistance when the men began
