ww $ The Osho Times Published by Canadian Mewspopers Limited, B6 King 5. E, Poge 6 Wednesioy December 14, 1960 Gshawa, Oo eT ------------------------------ Thoughtful Selection For U. S. Cabinet Jobs Whether we like it or not, the policies pursued by the United States have # far-reaching effeet on Canada. Policies come from people, and the way thet President-elect Kennedy is going about the choosing of people to fill cabinet positions should be reassuring to Cane dians, He appears to be coolly objective in his selections, He has not rushed to name appointees, has relied on performance scorecards rather than political judgments, and, secording to best reports from Wash ington, has not given his ear to any on faction, social, economic or ideologi esl, to the others, His search, it seems, has been for men just to do a job rather than for men who can help him pay off political obliga tions. He 'wants his cabinet officers Wo be performers at their assigned task vr one can almost hear him saying "MH there's any politicking to do, Lyndon Johnson and I will look after it In this way; he has collected what exclusion of appears to be a particularly strong team to handle the top jobs in foreign affairs Dean Rusk, who will succeed Christian Herter as secretary of state, is no Senger to the state department, and his nine years at the head of the Rockefeller Foundation should heve helped to broaden his horizons as well as strengthen administrative capacity, He will have # very strong assistant in Chester Bowles, & man of wide and varied experience in diplomacy, politics and administration. Adlai Stevenson, articulate and percep. tive, could well be the best man the United States hes ever had at" the United Nations, We could wish that Lester Pearson were there as well, to instruct him in the fine art of munipu- lating bloc votes There is an air of energy and purpose about the Kennedy cabinet, as it takes shape, and these are qualities which have not been markedly prominent in US. administration during the later Eisen hower years, With intelligent direction, they are qualities that can restore shaken faith in the leadership provided the free world by the United States Plan For Literacy While Oshawa debates the cost of a new high school, the United Nations Educational, Scientific Cultural Organization is planning & project to help make the world literate, or at least and to give a basic education to million of children, The plan, as outlined, will take 20 years to complete, The money and statistics involved are tremendous More than half of all of the people in the world are illiterate =~ and you ean't do much training of people who cannot read or write In the Arabic-speaking countries UNESCO estimates that five million children are in primary schools, but 10 million other children are in no schools ot all. Higher education is even more rare; 16 children go into secondary schools and two to vocational schools for every 100 in primary schools, Asia is in even worse shape, There, a study of 18 countries shows, there are 87 million children with no opportunity for schooling at all, By 1980 the number, at the present rate of increase, will reach 220 million, although gfforts now being made will provide schools for some of these. UNESCO estimates that over a 20. year period facilities will have to be 156 million primary school children, They will re- 55 million number of new classrooms and four mil. provided additionally for quire teachers, the same lion houses for school use, The cost; a terrific $65 billion, or about $3.2 hil. lion a year for two decades, Of 25 million children of school age in tropical Africa, only eight million get any kind of schooling. Few of those complete primary school, There is need for 365,000 teachers, Will UNESCO provide the money needed? It can't, What it can do is to help organize programs for recruiting teachers, help plan "cheap" education, help cowrtries in all phases of develop. Ing educational systems, There is one aspect not mentionad by UNESCO, but it should not be fore gotten, Some of the illitgrate countries do not lack money, Bome Arab states have huge incomes from oil, but the money is thrown away by feudal chiefs, Part of UNESCO's task should be con» version of the spendthrifts, For A Hot Christmas Very soon, people will be getting literally, at burned up over Christmas the way Canadians do every year this season, In thousands of hagipy homes the whole family to work providing all the hazards necessary for a successful, sure-fire Christmas, Fire will eagerly get must have kindling, so we'll make sure there's a dried out tree in the living room surrounded by plenty of tissue-wrapped gifts, paper decorations and lots of worn out electric tree lights, candles and pen- nies in the fuse box Fire departments, who are notorious for wanting to spoil everyone's fun, will issue warnings about putting your tree in water, keeping lights in good condition, and not overloading circuits, Stores will advertise fire-retardant and decorating paper, and offer for sale CSA. approved Christmas lights which dis wrappings courage electrical fires, But don't worry, you ean still have a fire this Christmas, The Oshawa Times TL WILION, Publisher and General Manager € GWYN KINSEY, Editar smbining The Oshawa Times the Whithy Gazette and 1843), In published daily holidays excepted) The {established Chronicle {Sundays Mambers of Can Oshawa Times 187) ¥ {estat and sta Newapaiers Publishers ross, Audit Bureau of Cireulation and 1 Pravingial Dailies Asse ciation, The os in exclusively entitled 1a the use for redublication of all despatched In he paper credited tor ta The Anotiated Press or Reuters, and also the local news published therein All tights of wpecial despatches are ale reserved Ottices University Avenue Toronta, Ontario read, FQ SUBSCRIPTION RATES Thamion Building, 425% 440 Catheart Street, Me Delivered by carriers Oshawa, Whithy, Alas Plekering, Bowman a ort Petty.
