2 THE OSHAWA TIMES, Thunday, June 8, 1961 'GOOD EVENING By JACK GEARIN "BUY-IN-CANADA" POLICY CHALLENGED The Board of Education is in a dogged fight these days to defend its "Buy-in-Canada" policy. Some people claim that the Board does not adhere rigidly to this policy and that this is a sad state of affairs, especially at a time when Canada's jobless totals are high, Alex Reith, Grand Lodge representative of the Inter- national Association of Machinists, Toronto, is such a person, He says that the Board recently let a contract for three boilers go to a U.S. firm, although a Canadian firm submitted the lowest bid by some $1500. He has asked the Board to reconsider the matter, but he isn't getting very far. Chairman Stephen Saywell of the Board says that Mr. Reith has been supplied with "incorrect information," but the latter stoutly rejects this allegation and states that if anybody has been mis-informed it is Mr, Saywell. Correspondence in the dispute has been read at City Council and the Oshawa District Labor Council--one letter-writer made an appeal to Premier Frost, pointing out the manufacturers generally are concerned over Boards of Education and other public bodies spending money for imported materials, when Canada goods equal in quality and price are available in Canada. Mr. Frost (who religiously strives to protect local autonomy) replied that the Board has the responsibility for the purchase and installation of this material, but that is not likely to settle the dispute. MR. SAYWELL GIVES HIS REPLY Mr, Reith makes the following allegations: The Board awarded the tender for the three OCVI boilers to York Shipley Co. of York, PA. The Canadian firm of Moore and Barren (who speci- fied that Oakwood Iron Works boilers be used) failed to get the contract, although it was the lowest bidder by some $1500. The boilers are made in Toronto and meet with the specifications of public bodies across Canada. Mr. Saywell gives an altogether different version of the contract-letting after commenting wryly in a letter to Mr, Reith: "Although it may be regrettable that much of our heating and other equipment is not made in Canada, we do appear insolubly linked to the U.S.A. as exemplified by your letterhead." Says Mr. Saywell: The successful bidder, a local firm, placed the order for three boilers with York Shipley of Canada, 2792 Yonge street, Toronto, not with York Shipley Co, of York, Pa., as alleged by Mr. Reith. York Shipley of Canada is either manufacturing or tooling up to manufacture their equipment in Peter- borough and the Ontario government has designated their products as "Made in Canada" and has placed orders for similar units, The Board favors package unit boilers to field built- up installations (on the advice of international architects and engineering firms). In this case, several package units were named as alternates capable of burning No. 5 fuel oil--in case these units exceeded allotted funds, a second alternative of a field built<up unit was specified, naming the Oakwood Iron Works boiler and the separate Ace oil burner unit. There is no completely Canadian-made package unit capable of burning the No. 5 or 6 oils--the unit from Moore and Barren is not a package unit, The Oakwood boiler is smaller, therefore cheaper. The boiler shell only would be supplied by Oak- wood. : The Ace oil burner is entirely made in Chicago. The pumps and other equipment would come from vari- ous other manufacturers, mostly American. This would be assembled by Moore and Barren, and is not a package unit, TWO COMPLETE PACKAGE UNITS Mr. Saywell's letter brought a sharp reply from Mr. Reith (a former steam engine fitter and machinist for 22 years with the CPR) who personally visited the Oakwood Iron Works," without previous announcement, for the purpose of "seeing the manufacture of their boil- ers." "I came away firmly convinced that incorrect infor= mation had been supplied--but not to me. I am sorry that it is your board that has been given the incorrect information," writes Mr. Reith to Mr. Saywell. Mr. Reith says he found two complete package units being constructed at the factory and made ready for shipment to the Scarborough Old Folks Home ("They were the type and to the specifications called for in the Oshawa tender. One of these boilers was nearly com- pleted and the other was being made ready to be fire- tested and steam-tested. A third boiler, a package unit, similar to your specifications was under construction to be supplied to York University"). Mr. Reith says these are complete package units, similar to that of York Shipley--he says they disprove the information given to the Board that they are field built-up units and that they would have to be assembled and tested on the site, as suggested in Mr. Saywell's letter. WOULD RETAIN BUSINESS IN CANADA Continued Mr. Reith: "We are in no way knocking or condemning York Shipley boilers. We want to retain the business for a Canadian firm employing Canadian workmen. We are aware that York Shipley intend to build a plant in Canada; in fact, ground has been broken in Peter- borough. It is also a fact that they will be fortunate if they can produce a boiler, even with high American content, within the next year to 18 months." KIWANIS KEDRON CAMP WORTHY PROJECT Murray A. Maidlow is beating the drum these days for a worthwhile project--the Oshawa Kiwanis Club's summer camp for boys and girls (8 to 15, inclusive) at Camp Kedron. This is an ideal camp for youngsters who have never been away from home. More than 150 children will attend this year, paying guests for the first month ($30 for each full period of 12 days) and non-paying for the second. The $30 tariff is charged to enable the Kiwanians to maintain a staff of instructors for the full summer camp period. MR. VICTOR INSPIRES OTHERS Oshawa Realtor Fred Jones will start a three-year course at Osgoode Hall Law School in September. He has been absent from school for 27 years. He attended university for two years in the early 1930's. He was later a professional photographer with (Pringle and Booth, Toronto and for himself). He is 45 and the father of four children.

Liberal senators were ex- pected topresent an amend- ment to strike out this provision when the banking committee gets down to detailed considera- tion of the bill. The amendment move was ex- pected Wednesday night from the Liberals--a majority in the committee and in the Senate it- self. The controversial bill would broaden the range 'of imports considered to be of a class or kind produced in Canada. On many imports, higher tariff rates apply to goods falling in| this class, particularly machin-| ery -- Canada's largest import item. {HEAR ARGUMENTS | In nearly seven hours of hear- lings Wednesday the committee heard some strongly-worded ar- guments for and against the bill and especially the provision for the revenue minister to have [the final decision in certain ta- ! |riff rulings without chance of | World War, Mr. Halter's chauffeur stands by the car on a Winnipeg street. --(CP Wirepheto) mons Convinced Narcotic Laws Flop OTTAWA (CP)--The govern- For addicts it means a pofen- ment has left no doubt of its tial lifetime of medical and|view of the nature of the crimes. | belief that C an a d a's existing psychiatric care. narcotics laws have been a flop, | despite the best efforts of RCMP WOULD BUILD IN B.C. {undercover squads. | Justice Minister Fulton said {Wednesday that drug addiction still forms a large blot on Ca- nadian soeiety.

John Inglis Company Limited of Toronto said in a brief that since the measure was proposed by Finance Minister Fleming in his baby budget last Dec, 20, the company has signed two long - term agreements with United States firms that will provide 200,000 hours of employ- ment annually. The company indicated it got the agreements on the strength of the bill's provision for final tariff rulings by the minister on the new products involved. If these rulings were subject to appeal, it said, it would prob- ably be years before the new agreements could be used to full advantage. Gordon Hooper of Ottawa, rep- resenting the Quebec Asbestos Mining Association, said the discretionary powers left solely to the minister "are not as in-| nocuous as they may seem." ". . . I can say they're mur-| der." CLAIMS ONE-SIDED He said the revenue minister, in making decisions, would hear| only one side of the argument --that of the Canadian manu- facturer seeking protection. Eric Hehner of Ottawa, an- other tariff consultant, said ben- efits from the bill "will far out- weigh the possible adverse ef- fects that are feared." Senate Showdown On New Tarif Bill goods are of a class or kind made in Canada. He said it would limit appeals only on a point which hasn't been open to argument anyway. The Ontario government's di- rector of industrial development, F. J. Lyle, entered the argu- ment, appealing for passage of the bill to help provide jobs for 660,000 new people expected to enter the Ontario labor market in the next 10 years. 'WILL ABOUND' Under the bill, he said, op- portunities for Canadian manu- facturers of new products "will not only exist, they wil abound." Mr. Lyle, who said he wasn't speaking for the Ontario gov- ernment, said there is a "state of emergency" in Ontario's em- ployment picture. Parliament should take every reasonable Hgasre now to provide future jobs. He said his industrial develop- Trangquillizers Present Danger MONTREAL (CP) -- 'Tran- quillizer pills are being used at an a str onomically increasing rate and with no regard for mental health, Dr. I. Atkin of London said Wednesday. He told the third World Con- gress of Psychiatry that there is a danger that the world is developing a new fear--a fear of being under too much stress. There is no evidence that peo- ple are living under more stress today than at any other time in history, he said. Nor was there any evidence that the mental stamina of people had dimin- ished. Anxieties about "'wearing out" the nervous system and the dangers of so - called "nervous exhaustion" are grossly exag- gerated, Dr. Atkin said. Just as dangerous for mental health was not using the poten- tial powers of the nervous sys- tem to their fullest degree.
