METCALFE AFTER THE GAME Daily Times-Gazette (Osnawa, Whitby), red 57 Siméoe Street Labor Men Anxious For M spital Facilities ore Hospital Facilit In "the last few days, two letters have been published in The Times-Gazette, written by supporters of the CCF, and taking exception to our view that a national hospitalization plan should be deferred until hospital faciities have been developed to meet its needs. Their view is that the na- tional health insurance plan should proceed at once, taking a chance on new hospitals being built and hospital additions being pro- vided to take care of all the people. who would have contractual right under such a scheme, As we have pointed out, the point at issue is one of method rather than objec- tive. We are just as whole-heartedly in favor of national health insurance as are its CCF protagonists, but we can see dangers ahead if such a plan were put into effect and the hospital facilities proved inadequate to meet the demand made on them by a fully-insured population. We are also in agreement with them regarding thé need for greater hospital facilities and services, and believe that no time should be lost in providing them wherever possible. That is one reason why this newspaper is supporting the by-law to provide for the issue of $850,000 of debentures to help in building an alditional wing to the Oshawa General Hospital. With Oshawa hospital facilities already taxed to the limit, one can foresee an impossible situation in that in- stitution were every citizen to be covered under a national health scheme. The board of the Oshawa General Hospital is therefore wise in seeking to provide more accommo- dation and greater facilities for the future. In that proposal, it is logical, in view of the attitude expressed in the letters mentioned, to expect that the labor leaders and their rank and file would be whole-heartedly in favor of the hospital debenture by-law, so as to ensure that the additional hospital facili- ties which they seek will be provided in Oshawa, at least. Ryerson Institute Forging Ahead In the i.gerson Institute of Technology, Ontario has an educational institution which is carrying some of the lessons learned under the stress of war forward into the peacetime activities of the province. Started as an insti- tute for the training of war industry work- ers, and later used for vocational training of demobilized war veterans, it has now become a well-established link in the educational chain of the province. It has expanded con- siderably since the immediate post-war days, and today offers to Ontario young people a wide variety of courses of practical instruc- tion in many lines of industry and business. The service which the Ryerson Institute of Technology is rendering to young men and women, and the extent to which it is recog- nized as being useful, is shown by the fact _ that in the present term there is an enrol- -ment of 1418 students, an increase of 285 over last year's figure. In its night classes, « there is a registration of 3400, an increase of 700 over last year, and it has been necessary to turn away applicants for many of its courses. Ryerson now offers 29 courses, ranging from graphic arts to industrial chemistry, from electrical technology to institution and home management, This year two new courses, one in business for both young men 'and young women, and one in childhood management giving a training for nursery school work, have been added. And all of these courses are of a highly practical nature designed to enlarge the knowledge 'and skills of the students in fields in which there is a keen demand for skilled workers. Under the splendid leadership of its prin- cipal, H. H. Kerr, formerly on the staff of the Oshawa Collegiate and Vocational Insti- tute, Ryerson has grown in scope and use- fulness since it became established as a peacetime educational institution, and its training is bound to have a profound influ- ence on the future careers of the thousands of young men and women who take advant- age of what it has to offer. Ignorance of English Language Further evidence of the inability of many young Canadians to write correct English is given in the Ontario Department of Edu- cation's report on Grade 13 examinations in English literature and composition held -in June last. The report records too many misspelled words, generally weak punctua- tion and "every possible error" in the use of pronouns. Faulty sentences and' grammar were prevalent and few.students were able to express themselves with vigor and force. This report follows one which came from University College at the University of To- ronto which said among the group of 500 freshmen who tried an English text on punctuation and lucidity of expression 43 per cent failed. Business and others have complained for some years that graduates of high schools Editorial Notes Once upon a time a record wheat crop in Canada would have meant five-cent bread. But with the super-marketing schemes. of today, it probably will not mean a thihg. It is intimated that twice-a-day mail de- livery is to be reinstated in the urban cen- tres of Canada. Can this be anothe; sign that an election is not far away?

Other Editors' Views WOULD LIKE A LOT OF THINGS (Globe and Mail) The OCF may be able to prove--if petitions prove anything--that a lot of Canadians would like nations al health insurance, A lot of Canadians would like & new house, or a custom-built car, or a trip to Bu- rope. A lot of Canadians would like a lot of things, But they will not get them by signing petitions. They will only get them by paying for them in work and thrift, Are they willing to pay that price for more "security?" The fact is that they arg unwilling to pay for the "security" they already have; and as a result, it is collapsing unaerneath them. A Bit Of Verse .

This letter should clear the mat- ter up. The job of unions is to organize the unorganized, not disorganize the organized. Out of an approximate four mil- lion working force in Canada there are only one million of them or- ganized. This should give a clear picture of how open the field is for anyone interested in organiz- ing unorganized workers. The evidence presented by me was documentary material on the happenings of the whole Marmora situation, Of course confronted with this evidence Fenwick could only resort to red baiting in his attempt to cover up. In September the Mine Mill union applied for certification in the Bethlehem iron mine at Mar- mora. When called before the board the Mine Mill union 'sub- mitted signed applications repre- senting 72 per cent of the employ-, ees at the mine, Also appearing before the board was a company lead hand with a petition signed by some 35 employees claiming intervention. The steel 'workers name was not on the intervention paper, but Dave Lewis, the Steel buyer, appeared on behalf of the intervener and argued he could prove that Mine, Mill intimidated some of the employees into join- ing the union. The board held up the hearing until Mr. Lewis could present his allegations but after two weeks of waiting he dropped the charges and the board called for a vote. the time that Mr. Lewis was holding up the board, the steel organizers had two weeks to go into the area and do a job on the union applying for certifica- tion. When the board called for a vote the Steel organizers issued leaflets and carried out a cam- paign for the workers to vote for no 'union. Needless to say, the company did the same. The result was that the vote for the union was lost and the workers will now have to wait six months Lefore they can again apply for certifica- tion, In the meantime a company union has béen started and any chances of sively organizing them are rapidly go down the There is no such a thing as a Communist or CCF or Liberal or Conservative union. Unions are or- ganizations of workers of all politi- cal beliefs with the main interest of establishing @& better of living and improving working conditions. I am quite sure that no member of any union wants to see his dues dollars spent on raid- ing when the field for new organ- ization is so great. I am also quite sure that when the membership of any union, in- cluding the mine mill, feel that the leaders are not doing the cor- rect job they will vote them out of office. Most workers today are not fooled by red baiting for no matter how thin you slice it you can't eat it. Yours truly, WILLIAM RUTHERFORD. 527 Eulalie Ave., Oshawa, Ontario, QUEEN'S PARK May Remove Restrictions In Municipal Elections By DON, O'HEARN Special Correspondent for The Times-Gazette TORONTO ~--There may be a change in the Municipal Act to permit more freedom for men doing business with a municipality to sit on local councils. As it is now anyone doing business with the corporation is barred from office. The spotlight has been thrown on this recently by actions to unseat two aldermen in Sudbury and the reeve of Kincardine. They are only the latest in a long series of similar actions. And they are only a fraction of the actions that could be taken if the Act were strictly enforced. There must be thousands of men on local councils through- out the province who have business dealings with the corporation. But it is only when someone lays a complaint against them that the Act is brought to bear. It is prob- ably fortunate this is so. If it were not many of our better public ser- vants would be lost to their com- munities. The principle behind the Act is to prevent profiteering through council membership. But a strict interpretation goes beyond this. It would bar anyone at all doing business. Thus a hardware merchant who had been selling to a city for years couldn't run for office even though there were no increasing his sales through a seat on council GRAFT Hon, George Dunbar, Minister of unicipal Affairs has indicated he s going to look into the Act. He had leng muricipal experience hLe- fore entering the House here and agrees entirelv with the princinle of preventing profiteering. He has known of men who formed special companies after being elected to office just to take advantage of their positions. Naturally he has no time for these. But he also believes good men shouldn't be kept off council, LOOSE Even if he only succeeds in clarifying the wording and inten- tion of the Act it will be helpful. At present this is extremely vague and effectiveness largely depends on interpretation of the individual judge. According to the wording among those ineligible is "a per- son having himself or through an- other an interest in any contract with the corporation or with any commission or person acting for the corporation." This can be wide- ly interpreted. One judge, for in- stance, found it didn't apply to an insurance agent who was on coun= cil and received premiums from the city. The Kincardine case 4s being taken because the reeve is an electrical contractor and al- legedly did some electrical wiring work in a municipally-owned buil- ding. The action was laid by an- other contractor who was turned down on another job. Officials of the department agree the definit- ions under the Act are loose, and also that it probably bars some men who would be most desirable in local government. It would seem quite to be expected that steps will be taken to tighten it. TRAINS CRASH, 2 DIE LEAMAN, Alta.

CLAREMONT WMS Held Open Night EDWARD J.
