14 THE DAILY TIMES-GAZETTE, Saturday, July 11, 1958 * CANADIAN "CAREER GIRLS" OFF TO STOCKHOLM Representing business and pro- fessional 'women's clubs in Can- ada, 17 members are seen at Montreal airport prior to their | departure for Stockholm, Swe- | den, to attend the International Congress of Business and Pro- | fess onal Women. Twenty-one countries were represented at last international congress with Canada having largest attend- ance. Asian Buddhism Unifying Factor North as well as south of the Himalayas, Asian Buddhism is now showing itself as a unifying faetor between peoples of different races and cultures, relates The Times of London. Although Buddhism admits of no centralized ecclesiastical control, pious' Buddhists of every race look to India, the joud sanctified by the Buddha's early life, much as Chris- tians look to the holy places in Palestine and Muslims look to Mec- ca. INDIA'S PLACE Moreover, Bodh Gaya and San- chi are held in equal reverence by adherents of the "Greater'" (or northern) school and the "Lesser" (or southern) school of Buddhism in spite of sectarian disputes. In- dia's position as the centre of 'the Buddhist world was again shown last year, when half a million Buddhists from many countries as- sembled at Sanchi, where, in the presence of the prime ministers of India and Burma, the relics of two of the Buddha's disciples were solemnly reinterred. The government of India is alive to its responsibilities as custodian of the Buddhist homeland; it welcomes Buddhist pilgrims and preserves Buddhist shrines. Its sympathetic attitude has won the gratitude of southern Buddhists, particularly in Burma and Ceylon. Southern Buddhists can under- take pilgrimages to India freely. The same thing is hardly true of northern Buddhists, particularly in China itself and in Tibet. From time immemorial, pilgrims from Tibet add China have been accus- tomed, like the Lama in "Kim," to acquire merit by following the Master's footsteps on Indian soil. But since China consolidated her hold over Tibet, India has seen few pi . WITH MISSIONS Those Tibetans who come are mainly members of official mis- sions on their way to and from Lhasa and Peking--between which capitals the quickest route still lies through Hong Kong and Cal- cutta. The Chinese Government, in fact, likes to keep its Buddhists to itself; it discourages pilgrim traf- the passes which lead southwards {from Tibet to India. Yet Peking is making great use of Buddhism as an instrument of its policy, particularly in Tibet and Inner Mongolia. China's rapid suc- to the rest of the territory of the Pedple's Republic is largely due to the care that has been taken to underline the kinship between Chin- ese Buddhism and the Lamaistic form which prevails in Tibet. The spiritual authority of the Dal Lama has been used to make Chin- ese administration palatable to the Tibetan people; the Panchen Lama has been made nominal head of the newly organized region of Wes- tern Tibet. Chinese policy in Inner Mongolia is aided by the support of 'Living Buddhas' whose pretige is exploit- ed by the Chinese representatives. Moreover, parties of prominent Buddhists from Tibet, Mongolia and other Buddhist regions are regularly shepharded round Bud- dhist shrines in Peking and their testimony that the Master is rev- erenced by the Chinese People's Government is broadcast in many languages. POLICY CRITICIZED This exploitation of religion to aid national policy is abhorrent to true Buddhists everywhere on either side of the "bamboo cur- tain." Perhaps this is why the Buddhists of Ladakh, cut off from their centuries-old connection with Lhasa by the Chinese occupation of Tibet, seem now to be turning to India, where the government is content to allow Buddhism to re- main purely religious. There is a party, led by the Skaushak Bakula, who would like Ladakh to be integrated with India with Kashmir, so that of Buddhism could be strengthened. Unless this can be arranged, there is a risk that Chin- ese influence may creep into La- dakh through the young abbots who are still 20g to Lhasa for spiritual (and no doubt other) instruction. It would be tragic if China master- ed this important strategic fromtier under cover of the Buddha's gentle creed. fic, like all other traffic, through Commission's To Be Legally Fought WASHINGTON (AP)--The U. S. federal power commission today announced approval of New York state's proposal to build the Amer- ican half of the. $600,000,000 St. Lawrence river power project. The Canadian part of the project is to be built by the Ontario hydro- electric commission. The power commission said in its announcement that it was deny- ing the rival application of Public Power and Water Corp., Trenton, N. J, for authority to build the big project. The commission added in its brief three-paragraph announce- ment that orders and opinions re- lating to its decision would be issued "within a few days." An authoritative source said the commission's decision was unani- mous. ' The source said' that under the terms of the licence, New York would have to make pewer avail- able to adjoining states within reas- onable transmission distance. If the project is, finally realized, it is estimated that New York state and the province of Ontario would share equally more than 12,000,- Seaway OK year. Even with the power commission approval, New York still must fate a leg arrier to proceeding wit the Ontario hydro-electric power commission in the project. Public Power and eeding -- petitioned the Lid S. circuit court of appeals to | restrain the commission from [2%anding the licence to New York. | er project proposed for | near nil . Y., is held to | be the hinge on which the engineer- | ing feasibility of the long-proposed St. Lawrence seaway swings. In announcing conditioned admin- istration approval of the seaway several weeks ago, White House made realization of the yower pro- ject a necessary prel ry. If the power project is built it would also mean that Canada could carry out a seaway project {by itself on its own side of the St. Lawrence. It has indicated it will do this if the U. S. continues as it has for decades to ref to join in building the 27-foot chan- nel from the sea to Lake Ontario. MYRTLE STATION Hold Induction At Prospect For New Pastor S. M. PERCY .

Some of this will come back to the treasury in candidates' lost deposits. Each candidate must post a $200 deposit, which is forfeited if he to poll more than half the votes of the winning candidate in his riding. In double ridings, he has to get at least half the total of the low-vote winning candidate.

The high point revenue from this source came in 1945, when 462 candidates lost $92,400. 3 Want to buy, sell or trade? -- A Classified ad and the deal is made. day evening with Mr. and Mrs. N.

All indications here are that Can- ada is going to move ahead on the basis of a favorable Washing- ton decision from the U.S. federal power commission, without letting U.S. court challenges by oppon- Free and family and Mr. and Mrs. Ed Cochrane and family enjoyed a picnic at Lakeside Beach on Sun- ay.

While legal blocks remained, of- ficial quarters here were inclined to the belief that the two countries could plow 'ahead regardless of sible court brakes in the U.S. Can- ada appeared determined to move. Transport Minister Chevrier an- nounced the Canadian government will consider "at once"--subject to ensuing U.S. litigation--the a ment of three bodies dealing with seaway construction. These are the St. Lawrence sea- way authority, capitalized by Par- liament at $300,000,000 to build and operdte the navigation works of the seaway on the Canadian side; a St. Lawrence board of engineers (joint Canadian and U.S.) to pass on the hydro and navigation works generally; and a board of control to watch water flow problems in the river system. Canada manufactured 5,573 pie anos in 1951, all but 114 of them upright models. ININNITL A Bv RINKER'S CLEANERS, OSHAWA of Mr. and Mrs. N. Birkett and family. - Mr. and Mrs. D.
