- The Osharon Times Published by Canadien Newspapers Limited, 86 King 5. E., Oshawa, Ont. Page 6 Thursdoy, December 15, 1960 Unrealistic Air Pacts 'Hinder Canadian Lines A Canadian can travel by direst air service from London or Paris or Copene hagen to Moscow, But he cannot fly direct from Montreal to Chicago on # Canadien or Americon plane; he con, however, make the flight on & French plane. If he wants to fly nonstop from Vancouver to Sen Francisco, he must get hoard an Australien plane, because Canadian end US, airlines are not pers mitted to make direct flights between those points, And to top it off, an Italien wirline has waffie rights between Monts reel and Los Angeles, This sort of nonsense forces sttention to the need for a more realistic spprosch to the question of Canada's place as 8 major carrier in the sir age, Had not Canadian air development been warped to protect @ erown corporation, TCA, end had Canadian governments not en- tered into some very odd international agreements, Canada might very well have prospered spectacularly in the business of internationsl sir travel, The Dutch airlines KLM, relying largely on "export" of sir service, earns about $150 million a year for The Netherlands, GWG, MeConachie, president of Cana dian Pacific Airlines, has suggested that developed on & corresponding scale "ous Ey A own gir transport could have been ten times as big as it was in the pest decade" Thet would have meant shout $500 million in new revenue for Canada, end since 40 per cent of Canadien airlines income is spent on wages, an increase of $200 millions in Canadien payrolls, Mr, MeConachie rightly points out thet "it is an estonishing fact thet in sll the world, the most out-of-date send frustrating exception to this rule (that long tange aircraft cannot be fettered by geographic boundaries) is right here at home, in the sir sgreements between Canada snd the United States , , , Here are we Canadians standing come placently on the sideline while the girline of a third country comes in and legally highgredes our own passenger traffic on this lucrative trans-horder route, We have no objection to competing with ge foreign carrier for such business. ,, Between Canada and the United States, however, the foreign carriers can exers cise their traffic rights while the airlings of the two countries concerned stand on the sidelines, I can think of no other place in the world such a situation exists" To Prevent Accidents Judging by last weekend's toll, De- gember is living up to its reputation of being a deadly traffic month, The in. erease in Metro Toronto's traffic fatalie ties has prompted that area's traffic director, Bamuel Cass, to suggest that the mental attitude of Metro motorists should be studied, Anxiety has also been expressed by Commissioner W, H, Clark of the Ontario Provincial Police, It has been officially stated the greats est problem facing the OPP today is not any of the diverse activities of the many griminals in the province but the cares lessness and negligence . of otherwise normally law-abiding citizens who ope- rate automobiles in 8 manner dangerous to themselves and to others, An intensive survey conducted by the OPP has revealed that almost 28 per cent of fatal accidents in- Ontario im 1959 aceurred on Saturdays and Suns days between midnight and 2 AM, and on avery day of the week between 4 PM, and 6 PM, The deduction reached from these facts was that drivers were tired and irritable and in a hurry, either bes vause of long periods of weekend driving or from their day's work in offices or factories, Another analysis of accidents last year showed excessive speed, or speed unsafe for conditions, was responsible for 43 per cent of fatal mecidents on OFP-patrolled roads were found to be implicated in 26 per cent of fatal aceidents, In an effort to increase safety on the highways by making the OPP more efficient as a deterrent force to erring drivers, Assistant Commissioner T, H, Trimble was recently selected to act as A traffic control officer, The strength of the force still seems to be insufficient to adequately meet the needs of the situation but the efficiency of available manpower in each OPP district has been heightened by what is described as "selective enforcement," This system requires that all accidents reported by constables be marked on # spot map in district headquarters together with records of their occur rences, The district traffic sergeant can then determine at what times which sections of highways had the most accident-causing violations, This enables him to order detachments to. concentrate on patrolling such sections at these times, thus utiliging his constables to t! it advantage, Drinking drivers Reason For Success The Woolworth chain in Canada is expanding ~= it Is in the United States, the United Kingdom, Mexico and Germany, In a time of intense com- petition at the retail level, how does this company manage not only to survive but to extend ifs operations? There are ather companies enjoying similar success, while still others find the going rougher and rougher, In all cases of success, the answers are probably similar te those given in an address to the Sales Exeod tive Club of New York the other day by T, R, Lynn, vice-president in charge of sales of the F, W, Woolworth Co, Mr, Lynn outlined the history of his company and how merchandising does trine and practices were developed, He stressed the factors of service, quality The Oshawa Times Tob WILION, Publisher and Generel Meneger © GWYN KINSEY, Editor The ™ hithy Tells ae The Oshawa Times sombink (established 1871) ond the nicl (established 1863), i published daily (Sundays and statutory holidays excepted) Member at © Daily Ni Publish Amosiation.
