"VANDALS DESECRATE JEWISH CEMETERY," Winnipeg Tribune. May 8, 1933. Page 1. ---- 70 TOMBSTONES ARE BROKEN OR TUMBLED OVER ---- Slabs Marking Resting Place of Pioneers Deliberately Smashed --- PRAYER SHAWLS STOLEN FROM NEARBY BUILDING ----- Havoc Wreaked in Children of Israel Burying Ground In Transcona Rd. --- Discovery was made today that vandals had entered the Children of Israel cemetery on the Transcona road and wrecked havoc on the graves and tombstones.
Created nearly 50 years ago, the first Jewish cemetery in the west today presented a picture of ruin and devastation. More than 70 tombstones, some of them marking the graves of Jewish pioneers who had come west in 1882, were broken or tumbled over. In the small building used to house prayer shawls and prayer books both doors and flooring had been stolen. The shawls and the books were scattered and tumbled over the bare earth.
Hammer Believed Used The damage done to the tombstones bore evidence of deliberate vandalism. Weather-beaten marble slabs marking the resting place of men and women who had passed away in the nineteenth century were broken, probably with a sledge hammer. Gravestones of hardier granite were broken off at their joints, and columns rudely thrown on to the graves themselves.
The motive and the perpetrators of the desecration of the cemetery were alike unknown today. Evidence of the breaks in the tombstones indicated that the vandals had done their work within the past two weeks. The destruction in the small building may have been a separate act by another party.
Reward Is Offered Royal Canadian Mounted Police were informed of the destruction today by William T. Tobias, former M.L.A., the graves of whose parents were among those despoiled. A brother, Norman Tobias, of Vancouver, had discovered the vandalism on a visit over the weekend. A reward for information leading to the arrest of the vandals has been offered by the cemetery board, Mr. Tobias, J. E. Black and David Vineberg.
The Children of Israel cemetery is about one-quarter of a mile north-east of the Transcona road and about a mile east of Elmwood. In recent years burial there has been rare, the Shaarey Zedek cemetery in West Kildonan succeeding it. Picture caption: Vandals entered the Children of Israel cemetery east of Elmwood and broke or tumbled over more than 70 tombstones, it was discovered today. The building used to house prayer shawls and prayer books was ransacked. R.C.M. Police began an investigation today. The view shows some of the gravestones broken by the vandals.
[AL: There was a wave of antisemitic acts like this throughout Canada in 1933, in the wake of the Nazi seizure of power in Germany. Swastika clubs, vandalism, Klan activity, and of course the infamous Christie Pits riot in August 1933 in Toronto. The victory of fascism in one country can have dire impact elsewhere in the world. There was a corresponding wave of mass protests and organizing, led by the far-left, across Canada as well, though because the Canadian state and bourgeois were far more anti-Communist than anti-fascist for much of the 1930s, these protests received more hostile coverage in the press and even police suppression]

Winnipeg's city council approved a plan Thursday that will see the cost of transit passes for low–income earners drop gradually over the next three years, bringing the price for those who qualify to half the regular rate by 2022.
Councillors voted 15 to 1 in favour of the program, with North Kildonan representative Jeff Browaty being the single nay.
Anti-poverty advocate Al Wiebe was one of several people who spoke to council in favour of the plan. Wiebe said he has had to make a choice in the past between buying food or paying for transportation to get to a job.
"I have had to turn down jobs because I could not afford transportation costs to get to the job and back.… If I did, we wouldn't be eating," Wiebe told councillors.
Currently, a full-fare monthly bus pass for an adult costs $100.10.
Several people told city council that even a 50 per cent reduction in a bus pass wasn't enough for those on the lowest incomes.
The first phase of the reduction will start in May 2020, and will mean a 30 per cent discount on a full-fare monthly adult pass. The discount will increase by 10 per cent each year after that for the next two years.
Based on current fees, the low–income monthly pass would be priced at $70.07 in year one, $60.06 in year two and $50.05 per month when the program is fully implemented.

The Daily Thistle
The Daily Thistle – News From Scotland
Thursday 14th June 2018
"Madainn Mhath” …Fellow Scot, I hope the day brings joy to you…. From a clear and dry Costa del Sol, where the water of the Mediterranean Ocean kisses the shores of Spain, ..as I opened the door of the house this morning after walking Bella, under a star filled sky, the smell of rich and full flavor Colombian coffee invaded my senses, so a cup of the java in my hand, I sit pondering the news from around the world, so let me tell you about what caught my attention today…
SCOTLAND GEARS UP FOR SCORCHER OF A SUMMER AS MET OFFICE PREDICTS TEMPERATURES WILL SOAR TO 33C…. The glorious sunshine is expected to fall within the school holidays, from late June till August. Scots are gearing up for a scorcher of a summer. The country is set for its hottest summer for over a decade. The Met Office is predicting the highest temperatures for 12 years, soaring to a sizzling 33C. It's good news for families, as the glorious sunshine is expected to fall within the school holidays, from late June till August. Hotter temperatures are eight times as likely as cooler temperatures, the Met Office claims. Many parts of Scotland have been basking in glorious sunshine over the past few weeks. Scotland gears up for scorcher of a summer as Met Office predicts temperatures will soar to 33c  Looking to this coming week temperatures in Glasgow and Edinburgh will push 20C. A spokesperson from The Met Office said: "Many places will see warm spells of sunshine after any early mist has cleared this week. "Some heavy showers will develop across Scotland and northern England later where it will be fairly cloudy. "Wales and the south-west will see isolated showers too."
AXE LOOMS FOR HIGHLAND STATION WITH JUST 76 PASSENGERS YEAR…. A remote Highland railway station could be the first to be closed in Scotland for more than 30 years under plans to speed up journeys on the line. Kildonan, near Helmsdale in Sutherland, has just 76 passengers a year – around one every five days – though it is served by seven trains a day. Shutting it could save up to four minutes from trips on the Inverness to Thurso/Wick route. However, the plans come months after ministers rejected a move to close Breich station in West Lothian, which has even fewer passengers. Supporters of the Far North Line said they were likely to oppose the plan to close the 144-year-old station, which has the third lowest number of passengers in Scotland. Balloch Pier on Loch Lomond was the last to close, in 1986. The Highlands and Islands Transport Partnership co-ordinating body (Hitrans) said there would be an opportunity to close Kildonan when barriers are installed at an adjacent open level crossing, where trains currently have to stop to ensure the road is clear. The station is a “request” stop, so trains would still have to slow down in case there were passengers waiting to board. Partnership manager Frank Roach said: “Over 60,000 passengers a year use stations to the north of Kildonan, including Wick and Thurso. “Caithness residents have one of the slowest journeys by rail to their regional centre, Inverness, which is increasingly an important centre for education, training and health. “These passengers could have the journey time reduced through this measure. “It is a low-cost non-engineering solution to a long-standing problem. “Local residents within in the catchment are few, and trains will still stop at Kinbrace, eight miles away, and Helmsdale, 9.5 miles away.”
50 BANDS SET TO APPEAR AT LOCH LOMOND LIVE FESTIVAL…. AROUND 50 bands will take to the stage for Loch Lomond Live festival. The event, on September 22 and 23, will be the first major music festival on the loch in ten years. The festival will feature a mixture of traditional Scottish music and up-and-coming indie rock and alternative bands. There will also be local acts on the bill. Balloch band Have Mercy Las Vegas will appear. A spokesman for the festival said: “We’re delighted to announce that the festival will be at Luss Highland Games park. “It’s a fantastic location and we’ll also be announcing various transport options in due course. “Dubbed by radio legend Jim Gellatly as ‘an ideal festival band’, we’re delighted to announce local stars Have Mercy Las Vegas as our first act.” The event will promote local culture and feature entertainment, attractions and live music plus food and drink. The full line-up will be released on Monday, with tickets going on sale on June 15.
WOMAN ARRESTED AFTER CANNABIS RESIN SEIZED IN ABERDEEN…. Cannabis resin with an estimated street value of £100,000 has been seized from a property in Aberdeen. The seizure was made on Monday in the Rosemount area of the city, according to Police Scotland. Officers said a 57-year-old woman was arrested and charged in connection with the recovery. A report has been submitted to the procurator fiscal. Anyone with further information is asked to contact Police Scotland on 101.
PRANKSTERS PUT BORDERS SCHOOL UP FOR SALE ON EBAY…. Pranksters have put their secondary school up for sale on eBay for a bargain price of £2,018. Sixth-year pupils at Berwickshire High School, in the Borders, were trying to flog their high school building, facilities and “full use of all staff”. There were 14 bids made on the listing with the highest reaching £50,000. Buyers were offered “free collection in person” but warned the seller won’t accept returns. The listing read: “On behalf of the Berwickshire High School’s Class of 2018, we present the school building, its contents and full use of all staff for sale at a bargain price of £2,018. “The building comprises over 50 rooms, 5 bathrooms, excellent sporting facilities, luxury kitchen and a host of other amenities. “However what makes this a great buy is the staff on offer. “This full package deal comes complete with an exclusive angry headmaster, who will probably murder us when he realises we created this listing.
On that note I will say that I hope you have enjoyed the news from Scotland today,
Our look at Scotland today is of the Isle of Lewis in the Scottish Islands with the Northern Lights above illuminating the heavens.

A Sincere Thank You for your company and Thank You for your likes and comments I love them and always try to reply, so please keep them coming, it's always good fun, As is my custom, I will go and get myself another mug of "Colombian" Coffee and wish you a safe Thursday 14th June 2018 from my home on the southern coast of Spain, where the blue waters of the Alboran Sea washes the coast of Africa and Europe and the smell of the night blooming Jasmine and Honeysuckle fills the air…and a crazy old guy and his dog Bella go out for a walk at 4:00 am…on the streets of Estepona…
All good stuff....But remember it’s a dangerous world we live in
Be safe out there…
