he Oshawa Tones Published by Canadian Newspapers Limited, 86 King St. E., Oshawa, Ont. Page 6 Thursday, May 19, 1960 'Manpower Utilization' Doesn't Concern Jobs? Labor Minister Starr maintains that the new Senate committee on manpower isn't to study unemployment. The word unemployment isn't even in the motion, he says. He's right, the Vancouver Sun agrees. The motion calls for a study of "trends in manpower requirements and utiliza- tion in Canada." But senators hope to hear witnesses from all over Canada. What if some jobless stiff (pardon) -- some currently unrequired manpower unit) decides to testify? The Sun wonders and com- ments: The committee may have to translate his evidence into government niceties, something like this: "I was working full time , .." (Wit- ness's manpower previously experienced maximum utilization.) "Then I was laid off . , ." (Became displaced.) "Well, I lost my job..." (Cessation of subject utilization.) " ,..along with several other guys..." (Trend to inutilization.) "There were rumors about machine . . ." (Planned automation.) " ...then the boss bought it..." (A technological breakthrough.) Government Eight Turkish students who picketed at the United Nations headquarters in New York against "police state" actions of the Menderes regime in their home- land are in danger of losing government subsidies or other considerations which allow them to continue their studies in the United States. Moreover, if their financial plight should force their re- turn to Turkey, it is expected that some or all of them may be jailed, as Turkish editors and other members of the political opposition in Turkey have been. While it might be improper for the United States Government to give them assistance in this situation, it is possible that American press organiza- tions or other private groups will find funds to enable the students to stay in the United States, the Christian this "My insurance ran out..." (Actuarial recompense exhausted.) " ..Can't fined a job..." (Manpower requirements restricted. "I'm broke . . ."(Underprivileged, suffering budgetary imbalance.) " ..we've lost our home..." (Tem- porarily unaccommodated housing cone sumer.) ", .. the wifes expecting..." tions of population explosion.) 4... running up a grocery bill . . * (Nutritional requirements direct cons- cious acceptance of living-beyond-means psychology.) "We're worried sick . . ." (Productie vity potential impeded by anxiety neurosis.) "I just want a job . . "(Desirous of terminating involuntary inutilization.) " .. Ive been wondering ..." (Un- productive contemplation.) " . . is there any hope?" (Obsessed with indeterminates, invalid anticipa- tory processes extant.) "Please help . .. (Supplicatory trans- ferral of responsibility.) The point is, gentlemen of the Senate, keep it nice. Paul Martin said it: "Oh, weasel words!" Not Nation all Turkish individuals has just come from the Turkish educational attache in New York in answer to questions regarding the students put to him by the American press. He said: "They demonstrated against the government. The government is paying for their education. The 'government should take steps, don't you think?" The answer to that is, "No, we don't think so," the Monitor declares. Isn't it truer to say the Turkish nation is paying for these students' education? The government is the agent of the nation, governing presumably by the consent of the gov- erned. Confusion over that point in Ankara is what has produced the present Turk- ish crisis of whieh these few students seem now likely to become added viec- tims. It may be that.

Another hefty segment, 15 per cent, would turn first to finan- cial affairs.

Some people have different ideas. Says an Ontario man: "I'd cut out most rest periods and compel a union man to give a day's work for his wages." Says another man: "I'd blow up all the breweries.

REPORT FROM U.K. Bridge Considered After Ferry Quits By M. McINTYRE HOOD Special London (Eng.) Correspondent For The Oshawa Times LONDON~--The people of the town of Guildford have been waiting for 600 years to have a bridge built across the River Wey, which runs through the town. For these 600 years they have been using a ferry across the river. But the ferry may never run again, The ferrymen left the employ of the town coun- icl last August, and since then the old boat has been moored down river, lying in idleness. The council has found no one to replace him, and is now consid- ering plans for the building of a bridge for which the people ask- ed near 600 years ago. There is some interesting his- tory behind this story. It was in 1377 that the ferry became a "cause cclebre", The people protested against having to use a ferry, and they did something about it. They built a wooden bridge across the river. But the owners of the land on either side of the river tore it down and were prosecuted in the ancient courts. The jury, however, up- held the action of the landown- ers, on the ground that a ferry had been the accepted means of crossing the river for as long as they could remember, LOST IN ANTIQUITY The origin of the ferry is lost in the mists of antiquity. No one knows how long before this fa- mous court case the ferry first made its appearance, Pilgrims used it to visit the Chapel of St. Catherine, near the water's edge, and the Guildford townsfolk used it to attend Shalford Church om the other side. The ferry boat which was in use until last August was a large, flat-bottomed punt. It has de- lighted many thousands of visit- ors to the town, who were able to ride in it across the river for the modest fee of twopence, and a penny for children. Since the ferry was discontinued, the peo- ple, with no means of crossing the river at this point, have had to make a mile-long detour to get to the other side, REGRETS PASSING Yet there are those who regret the passing of the ancient ferry. Mrs. Judy Nicklin, secretary of the Guildford Society, which watches over the town's ameni- ties, is one of these. She says: "It will be a great shame to lose such a valuable piece of our history. The ferry has been part of the town for so long. But we realize a bridge is the reasonable glternative, and all we can do now is to keep a watchful eye on its design." Only one thing can save the ferry for the historians--a new ferryman. A spokesman for the council said: "All we can offer him--or even her--are the proceeds from the fees paid by passengers. If any- one feels a success can be made ot the ferry he is welcome to try it. We don't want to lose it either."

When one is young is the time to see things, says the Chatham News. An interesting news story recently published illustrates this trend, and the strange discoveries to which adventuring may lead. Before the founding of Rome, in the year 689 BC, a new colony, Illyria Eridarus, was founded on the Adriatic. In time it grew into a populous, power- ful and prosperous city. In its great days, its commodious harbor was filled with ships. Here, Roman legions gathered to set sail for all parts of the known world. Then came disaster. In the civil war between Pompey and Caesar Illyria Eridarus supported Pompey, and Oc- tavius besieged and captured the city. It struggled back to some measure of prosperity, only to be sacked by the Huns. During World War II two young men met in Italy. They came from opposite sides of the world. Teddy The Oshawa Times ¥.

Fishermen told them of a city, buried long ago, in the sea, and said on clear days one could see mighty city walls in the depths. Now it happened that Teddy Falcon was a professional diver. Von Praag happened to be an archaeologist. The tale of the fishermen interested both men, and they made a pact to meet each other after the war, and look into the question of the buried city. When this happened a yacht was necessary, and this was got in the "Pagan". Three eminent archaeologists joined them for the adventures ahead. Their quest was successful. They explored Illyria Eridarus, find- ing it still had mightly city walls and paved streets. In a central square was a huge bronze statue, very eroded. Bones of horses littered its streets, and sunken ships filled the harbor. The explorers collected golden cups, coins of the period, amphorae, urns, and many varieties of pottery. They were intrigued by massive tombstone bearing "the equi- valent of "Please Do Not Touch." Beside it was a vial that once held the tears of sorrowing relatives. - Ocean springs still threw up mud. They even found an eroded British magnetic mine of World War II in the harbor. There is still much to be done but already what has been found is im- pressive and said to be "priceless". Teddy Falcon and his English wife plan writing a book, "1,700 Years Under The Sea." In the lexicon of youth which fate reserves for: the bright manhood, there is no such word as fail.

World Copyright Reserved QUEEN'S PARK Boards Committee Could Do Plenty By DON O'HEARN TORONTO -- A. Kelso Roberts, Hon., is a scene-setter. One Sunday afternoon back in 1949 a bunch of us had to go to his house. As a candidate at the coming leadership convention we had to take pictures of him. He had everything ready. He was scrubbed. His boys were scrubbed. His wife was looking her charming best. And smack in the middle of the living room was one of those table hockey games. Everything was ready for us to shoot the family en masse shooting the works at parlor hockey--the "family" vote, the '"'sportsman" vote, and the vote of any few who might happen 'n be parlor hockey addicts. IRISH FIREMAN : Since then Hon. Kelso has sel- dom failed to live up. On St. Patrick's day he wears a tall green topper in the house. On closing day when the gal- lery bombs the members with sessional papers he sports a fire hat. And as chairman of the select committee on boards and com- missions he is continuing to live up. DRESSED UP He has a female secretary for the commitiee--and quite a fair to medium doll at that He has a "counsel" -- despite the fact there are four lawyers on the committee and the chances of it having to seriously cross- examine anyone are remote. He has a fancy-dandy recording system--run by another doll--for a record which won't be tran- scribed but will be available in case it is needed. And he is holding the meetings in the impressive, book - lined attorney-general's library--which is fine except it isn't large enough to permit anything but folding card chairs for reporters. SOME GOOD Style note finished, the com- mittee chaired by Mr. Roberts has shown promise. He started it off with a slogan "back to the Legislature." Deputy Minister of Economics George Gathercole said the in- tention more plainly when he stated it was to get the business of the people back in the hands of the elected representatives. How far it will be able to ac- complish this remains to be seen. One test will be natural inhibi- tions of the government members at interfering with their own creations interferes with clear thinking. But the committee can't help but do some good and could do plenty. Everybody will win--except the reporters who promise to end up with corns on their ends up.
