The Osha Times Published by Canadion Newspapers Limited, 86 King 1, E., Oshawa, Ont, Pose 6 Yiuwsdoy, Jonwsry 19, 196) -- Hard-Hitting Message About Cars And People It is a pity thet more people could not have listened to the sermon delivered lest Sunday by the Rev, C, D, Wilson, assistant curate of Bt, George's Anglican Church in Oshawa, It was & hard-hitting, downAo-earth message concerning # massive gvery-day problem -- the rela tion of the automobile to the individual end the individual to the automobile, His question; "What shell we, as Christ ians, do about the operation of our car?" There are three things to be done, he said; We must learn to drive, "not simply . , , selecting 'drive' on the suto- matic transmission end aiming the car down the road, but really knowing the limitations of the vehicle snd how to drive it under adverse conditions; we must constantly check the condition of the car ~ how would you like to have to pray to God for forgiveness for an secident that you caused by not keeping you machine in good condition?"; the matter of law ~= "a Christian will obey the law simply because it is there == his only excuse for violating a law is if it directly violates his Christian prineip. les... Traffic laws, established to protect society, do not violate your Christian principles and must be obeyed," He noted how cers can pervert the personality to produce recognizable types the hornblower, the lane jumper, the tirescreecher, "There is the strange Oshawa brand of driver who abandons his cor somewhere out towerds the middle of the road (usually facing in the wrong directions) under the guise of parking it, This resembles the aban doning of a ship on the high seas ~= I often wonder if the laws of salvage apply . . » Moreover this wonderful mas chine, thet can whisk you out to the country for a drive, or to the cottage, is seemingly unable to stop st the small country church, or to transport the owner three or four miles from the cottage to the church, Very strange" He noted the flouting of the law, "Consider parking. Bome Oshawa folk regularly park illegally in order to attend church, apparently without a qualm," There was this grim reminder; "Some of you may in the future or may now carry about with you the knowledge that you have maimed or killed someones by negligent or stupid driving, Your ear, then, demands souls and possibly lives" Tough, straightforward talk ~~ and we could do with more of it, Hockey Week Celebrated Minor Hockey Week, a Dominion. wide annual celebration, gets under way this coming Saturday, and as usual Osh. awa and distriet communities will have a full schedule of events to mark the occasion, There will be church services on Sunday, with special games, regular league games and other features each night next week, Details can be obtained elsewhere in this newspaper and readers are urged to check the new columns daily for reports and announcements, The Oshawa Minor Hockey Associas tion, which 'has been in existence as a bonafide organization for about 30 years and as an operating unit for about 33 seasons, has had a record of solid ache jevement and growth, thanks to the foresight of Harold Luke and a few colleagues who started the City League when the Oshawa Arena was built in 1031 There are four separate organizations operating miner hockey in Oshawa w= the Oshawa Minor Hockey Association, the Catholic Youth Organization, the Inter-Chureh Hockey League and the Neighborhood Parks Association, This means that a considerable number of Can't Afford The United Kingdom and the Soviet Union have signed a new cultural agree. ment, which provides for more exchange visits between ballet, theatre, music and scientific groups and for broader trading of information in the fields of medicine, technology, But net surprisingly the British failed to persuade the Russians to allow the sale of British newspapers within the Soviet Union and to stop the jamming of BRC broad. education and Casts, Georgi Zhukov, who signed the agree. ment for the Soviet Union, said that the jamming of radio programs was due to the "offensive, anti-Soviet attitude" of RRC broadeasts, Lately, he noted, the RAC had adopted a more "normal" tone in dealing with Russia and that in De- he Osha Times TL WILSON, Publisher and General Manager € GWYN KINSEY, Bdives ng The Cshawe Times ental Whithy Gasette and CRion ny a pubinhed daily N holidays excepted) Mamba of Canadian Daily Newsparern Publishers Amocition.

Bul they are so at variance with the usages of the Liberals during their 1686. 1057 term in office that one must ask whether they are a mirage or just a practical joke Other features of that tower are so contradictory that they reveal the glaring lack of a master architeet's co-ordination The surprising location of the new edifice was prompted hy the fear that the New Party might attract too much of the voters interest, if allowed to frolie alone in left field, It was also dictated hy reluctance to fight the Conservatives on. their own territory which now sprawls far to right and left of centre field, But the most surprising fea: ture of the new Liberal turret is that it offers Its patrons A wide range of unexpected henpes fits, without warning them -that they eannot possibly afford the inflated new price of admission It is like a sideshow barker at a elreus, who offers not just a glimpse of the heavded lady, hut also a steak dinner, a night In the harem, and access 10 A fountain flowing with whisky without saying that the admis sion price of two bits will have to be considerable supplemented hy other payments after entry, Toughness Needed For Road Safety Ry DON O'HEARN TORONTO What about a night in the pokey? Recently we had three days of highway safety "workshops," Hundreds of people had a talk fest They talked about educating drivers to responsibility, of "morality campaigns in the churches, of teaching ehildren safety, of how the points system could contral accidents, and whether the courts were effec tive NOT PRACTICAL Well that talk wasn't wasted Educating the people about accidents is helpful, And if the courts can do more = which means getting magistrates to agree on some thing: a possibility which can only he conceived in oplume= then by all means let them do i But nobody at the conference was asking for mare cops, Or that there he jail sentences for some highway effences And so one reporter dismissed the workshops as not being very practical BEING RUFFALOED? We are spending hundreds of thousands of dollars on pam phiets, billboards and educa tonal "kits" on highway safety (Mast of it is being parcelled oul through one advertising agency in Toronto (MeRim's).) here are thousands of sin cere and dedipated people who we working on this prepaganda and educational drive, They think they are going te solve the problem of highway safety, They are being buifaloed TWO Cures There are two ways 10 really foster highway safely in this SIEVIRCe or any other, One is to make sure there Is striet enforcement of the laws, The second is to make sure that the chronic offender 1s afraid to hreak the law, And to date we haven't put our hearts behind either, We have been too timid ONLY FEAR To properly police the roads the OPP needs another 400 men added to its present 1800 Unless there 1s a remarkable change in outlook here the force won't get them For three years two London, Ont, psyehologists==Dr, Willlam Tilman. and John Howeshave heen working on a study of the personality factors in accidents, Their experience has shown them that=exeept for drinking and actalsGod accidents == a "hostility" eomplex is the un. dorlying reason for irvespons sible driving A man has a fight with his wife and he takes it out in his driving \ man has an inferiority coms plex and so he identifies hime sell with hs big car and bes comes a big shot and arrogant, Is "education" going to cons trol these people?

How could he ensure full employment while admitting more immis grants end lowering tariffs? How could he aciheve defence neutralism, and yet employ our huge armed forces and still pro tect Canada? Feonomically these promises appear to he incompatible bed. fellows; politically, they are nul. lified hy their consistent rejec. tion hy Mr. Pearson himself and his leutenants through all those long years when they were in a position to implement them, yet did nothing That Liberal rally revealed ecartaln attractive points: admirs Able organization, and keen pos litical interest, But one must recall the warm. Ing words spoken at the rally by that politicians' politician, New: foundland's Liberal Premier Joey Bmallwood, He stressed; "A political party must he more than a erowd of hungry out-ofs office opportunists, whose real interests are the sweets and power and prestige of office," BY-GONE DAYS 30 YEARS AGO W, E.
