Page 6 Friday, June 9, 1961 Need Action To Extend Our Territorial Waters A year ago, at the Law of the Sea conference, Canada failed by a single vote to secure majority approval of its proposal to substitute the six-and-six limit for the present archaic and inadequate three-mile limit six-and-six would mean that any nation could claim a six-mile limit for its territorial waters with an additional six miles for the pro- tection of its fisheries. No foreign fishing vesels would be allowed inside the 12- mile limit unless it had prior rights by agreement. The failure is recalled by the report of Fisheries Minister Angus MacLean that 150 Russian vessels are off the Newfoundland coast, all dredging the sea industriously for a harvest of fish. The Soviet ships are not in Canadian territorial waters, technically, but only because of the obsolete three-mile limit. According to reports from the West Coast, Russian trawlers will soon be riding the swells off the mouths of British Columbia inlets, taking fish with- out regard to Canadian conservation laws -- and probably undermining the economics of British Columbia's great fishing industry. Boris G. Kulikov, Russian observer at this year's North Pacific Fisheries convention, made it plain that the Soviet Union is greatly interested in coming down into the North Pacific from the Bering Sea. Canada seeks to conserve its fisheries resources. The North Pacific fisheries treaty binds the U.S, Canada and Japan to conservation measures. But Russia is not so bound; it can loot the fisheries within sight of Canadian soil -- all because of the three-mile limit. Prospects for another Law of the Sea conference are 'slim. Several nations, including the Scandinavians, have taken unilateral action to set up a 12-mile limit. Canada should immediately seek an agreement with the United States and Japan, as signatories of the conser- vation treaty, to set up at least a six- and-six agreement for territorial waters. The Americans have been reluctant to abandon the three-mile limit -- it serves to their advantage -- but the prospect of the Russian move could change their minds. Canadian Investment Living standards would not be as high for all Canadians, nor would the country even have as many people, if #t had not been for the abundant invest- ment here of outside capital. The gain is beyond debate. But also beyond debate is the advantage of finding within Can- ada more of the money needed to pay for the birth of new industries and the growth of old ones. For years foreign capital has been the dominant factor in some of our key resource industries. Late report by the Dominion Bureau of Statistics, the same is true of manufacturing. In 1958 Cana- dian ownership of investment in manu- facturing slipped to a minority 49 per cent share. Of all the major branches of that industry, Canadians now control only four: farm machinery, 55 per cent Canadian-owned; iron and steel, 75 per cent; textiles, 80 per cent; beverages, 86 per cent. New investment in manu- facturing in 1958 totalled $400 million; of that total, Canadians invested $63 million, Americans $256 million, and Britons $50 million. In last December's "baby budget," to check the inflow of foreign capital, tax privileges on income paid to non-resi- dents were cancelled. At the same time, to encourage greater investment of the savings of Canadians in Canadian enter- prises, the four per cent surtax on in- vestment income from Canadian sources was repealed; in addition, pension and mutual funds were qualified for tax exemptions if at least three-quarters of their gross revenues comes from divi- dends on taxable Canadian corporations. It will be some time before the effec- tiveness of these tax policies can be measured. In the meantime there is at least one case history to show that Canadians, as individuals and as leaders in the business community, can take a hand in the effort. Recently the Con- sumers' Gas Company of Toronto made a $15 million debenture offering and deliberately appealed to the small in. vestor, who might never think of him- self, as a provider of investment capital, by giving the company's customers first chance and putting out denominations of $100 and $500. "The demand for these small denominations," company president Oakah Jones has just an- nounced, "exceeded supply by four or five times. A surprising amount, ap- proaching $1,000,000 was placed . . . We are sure that over 3,000 customers and others were able to invest in our natural gas future through these lower denominations who could not have done so under earlier issues." This method of tapping the reservoir of small savings may partly answer both problems of finding here at home the new capital the economy sorely needs and of increasing Canadians' shares of ownership of our industry, Rear-End Collisions Rear-end collisions account for nearly one out of every ten traffic accidents. They may result from dozens of circum- stances -- a car halted partially on the roadway, failure to allow for local traffic on country roads, tail-gating, carrying over superhighway speeds to secondary roads. The basic cause, how- ever, can be simply stated: following too closely. By law, you must maintain safe dis- tances between cars -- and in most places in North America this means at least one car length for every 10 miles he Oshawa Times 7. L.

Some safety experts recommended even greater intervals, but all the regulations and proposals founder on the obstacle of enforcement. How can a few policemen, for example, prevent tailgating by drivers in heavy weekend traffic -- where a rear-end collision can tie up traffic for miles? People in this area see this sort of thing happening almost every weekend of the summer somewhere along Highway 401. If police could effectively enforce the traffic law that forbids following too closely, the accident toll could be cut drastically. But they can't. That leaves it up to us, the motorists. How often, for example, do we permit ourselves to join in the tendency of drivers to bunch? It has been found that in heavy traffic, when a driver does attempt to maintain proper interval, another auto passes and cuts in front, thus halving the car-to-car distance. As a result, every- one crowds closer to others, as a defence against lane-hoppers if nothing else. But why do we let the foolishness of another irritate us to the point of foolishness ourselves? Part of the answer may be the deve- Iopment of a public attitude that makes the hopper and the tailgater the object of general derision and contempt. But that may only be a dream, since there is so much to be done first by the average driver in the way of regulation of speed, the giving of proper signals and the maintenance of safe intervals. More than two dozen lives were lost on Ontario roads last Saturday and Sunday. Self-preservation would seem to demand self-examination by 'motorists. i Cn rg ---- a Pe 'THINK WHAT WE COULD HAVE DONE' ------ -- in. QUEEN'S PARK Lots Of Activity By Young Tories By DON O'HEARN TORONTO The Ontario Young Progressive Conserva- tives are holding their annual three-day meeting once again. And, as usual, it will be held at a summer resort. This is only one of a large number of events scheduled for the very active YPC's. There could be a lesson for the other parties in this activ- ity. For neither the Liberals nor the CCF have been able to get as successful a young people's or- ganization functioning as have the Conservatives. And while one can't say just how much this has contributed to the party's success there is no question but that the contri- bution has been substantial. Not only in the men produced for the political arena--and a number of the members in the present house, and at least one cabinet minister, came up through the YPC ranks--but also in the continuing interest it en- genders. INSIDE YOU Differences Noted Between Ailments By BURTON H. FERN, MD What's the difference be- tween rheumatic fever and (rheumatoid) arthritis? Both start with red-hot swol- len joints. 'Rheumatoid means "like rheumatic fever." Each condition inflames and destroys special tissue that holds . cells or fibers together. Rheumatic fever may leave scars on the heart; scars of rheumatoid arthritis stiffen and cripple joints. Here are more clues! Rheumatic Fever: Attacks a few weeks after a cold and "strep" sore throat. Rheumatoid Arthritis: At- tacks triggered by cold wea- ther, fatigue, emotional upsets and bruised joints. Rheumatic Fever: Red-hot arthritis often bounces from joint to joint. Sometimes only vague aches; other times no joint trouble. Muscles stay large and strong. Aspirin quickly melts most inflammation. LINGERING CONDITION Rheumatoid Arthritis: Ar- thritis doesn't bounce around, although many joints -- especi- ally fingers -- become inflam- ed. Muscles eventually weaken and waste. Aspirin helps, but can't completely melt the in- flammation. Arthritis usually lingers. Rheumatic Fever: May in- flame tiny arteries in lung to cause pneumonia, in brain to cause chorea (St. Vitus dance) or in the skin to cause a red, ring-like rash. Rheumatoid Arthritis: No chorea or pneumonia. Red pin- points with reddish, thread-like, spidery legs may break out on skin. Rheumatic Fever: Attacks the heart's inner lining -- in- cluding valves -- muscle or out- er coat. May hit one, two or all three targets. Heart mur- murs change from day to day. Weakened muscle may cause heart failure. Scars can cause heart trouble years later. EFFECTS ON HEART Rheumatoid Arthritis: Some- times inflames the heart's outer coat -- and, very rarely, the inner lining. No murmurs or heart failure. Rheumatic Fever: Usually strikes first during childhood. Rheumatoid Arthritis: Ten times less common in children than rheumatic fever. These differences can melt into confusion when repeated bouts of rheumatic fever stiffen and weaken knuckles or when rheumatoid arthritis strikes someone whose heart is already scarred by rheumatic fever. No wonder your doctor has to sift all evidence carefully and request complicated labor- atory tests before issuing any joint proclamation. READERS' VIEWS Correct Guide Dress Stressed Dear Sir: I would like to express, through the medium of your paper, my impressions of last Sunday's Girl Guide and Boy Scout Church Parade at Camp Samac. The parade would have been very impressive with its atten- dant bands, if more emphasis had been placed on two aspects, namely, uniformity of dress and marching ability. With regards to the first as- pect, my wife and I have heen trying to impress our Guide daughter that the correct Guide uniform, as laid down by reg- ulations, covers such wearing apparel as shoes. But when we or she -- secs a Guide officer in a church parade wearing high-heeled shoes, well, 1 ask you, how far can we get?! We have heard it said many times that the girl of today will not wear the regulation shoe, but to us there is bu! one an- swer to that. If a girl really wants to join the Guides--or a boy the Scouts, they will wear the uniform shoe, if such acticn is a requisite of membership. Regarding the second aspect, even the very young can easily be taught the basic principles of marching, and with the bands there to help them, there surely can be no excuse for the "Sunday afternoon stroll" atti- tude. Amongst the few exceptions to this criticism, the Sea Rang- ers really stood out: They were both smartly turned out and they could march. Perhaps the powers-that-be will take notice of these com- Mets and do something about $ Oshawa R. T. BRYANT It was George Drew who first got the YPC's really rolling. And so far as the party's health is concerned it was one of the most effective things he ever did. HOTEL DISCRIMINATION The human rights commission has recently had a heart-warm- ing experience. As part of its educational campaign the commission wrote all the resorts and hotels in the province asking for co-operation in its anti-discrimination pro- gram, The response was fantastic. Hundreds of operators wrote in pledging their full support. And there were no dissidents. About the only thing in the nature of a complaint was a plea that the travelling public needed educating. One operator expressed it this way: "While we assure you of our complete co-operation, it can be most difficult for us when our livelihood is reduced due to others' prejudices." | BREAK DOWN Many of the operators had d encouraging instances to give to show that prejudice does break down when given a chance. For example, this is from another letter: "Many of our clients--who are also our good friends--are Ne- gro. "Anyone who objects to have ing any of these fine people in the same camp is free to go elsewhere--money refunded. As far as we know, no one has left because of our refusal to dis- criminate. "Although it is the Americans who are most apt to show dis- like of their dark-skinned fellow citizens, they often become good friends: In fact, two American families--one white, one black-- have reserved cottages for the same two weeks this year be- cause they enjoy fishing to- gether." REPORT FROM U.K. Russ Youngsters To Visit Britain 2+ M. McINTYRE HOOD Special London (Eng.) Correspondent For the Oshawa Times LONDON -- In the efforts to breach the iron curtain, and create a regular exchange of visits between the people of Britain and those of Russia, youth clubs in British towns and cities have been untiring. It has been a long, uphill battle, with many frustrations. But now, after 15 years of effort, the youth service of Reading, Berk- shire, recognized as one of the best in the country, costing over $50,000 a year to operate, has been able to announce that the iron curtain has been breached. The Reading youth service council has at last succeeded in persuading the authorities in Moscow to allow a party of Rus" sian teenagers to visit the town for two weeks. There will be 11 Russian youngsters in the party, and they will stay in private homes in Reading from July 15 to 29. There is a strong hope that a party from Poland will also be allowed to visit the town. OFFICER JUBILANT A. H. Bush, youth service offi- cer, is jubilant about the be- lated success of this project in understanding. He said: "We are feeling very happy about it. We do not know yet BY-GONE DAYS 35 YEARS AGO The old Cedardale School was presented to the United Church of Canada to be converted into Cedardale United Church. Henry T. Carswell, prominent Oshawa industrialist and life- long citizen, passed away at the age of 72. A. E. O'Neill, principal of East London Collegiate Insti- tute, was appointed principal of the Oshawa High School.

They are extremely rare birds to get hold of. We have tried for 15 years, not only to get young- sters to visit us from Russia, but from other iron curtain coun- tries as well. The youth service has found it very difficult to get the idea across to Moscow and Warsaw that this invitation is for a straightforward holiday visit, with no political or sociological indoctrination, and no confer- ences of any kind. VISITED POLAND As a last report, Councillor G. V. Rickard, chairman of the Reading Youth Committee, went over to Warsaw this year to try to arrange the Polish visit. When he returned, he said that start to finish it would about four months to get through all the paper work re- quired by the authorities in ar- ranging the visit. But Reading youth workers think the task well worth while. They believe that once the Russians come and see what a happy time they have, they will be inviting par- ties of Reading teenagers to Moscow. In all, Reading is expecting about 80 teenage visitors from continental countries this year for the annual International Youth Fortnight. They will see something of the varied range of services organized by the youth service and by numerous other voluntary bodies and church organizations, which re- ceive annual grants of from $10,000 to $12,000 from the youth service. While there have been groups from western Europe in past years, this will be the first occa- sion for visitors from behind the iron curtain. It is felt that the benefits ar: mutual, with Read- ing teenagers learning just as much from their visitors as the visitors do from their stay in Reading. from take OTTAWA REPORT Charges Liberals Scaring Industry By PATRICK NICHOLSON LONDON--The economic im- age of Canada has seldom in living memory been as un- attractive to British investors and emigrants as it is today. This is the predominant impres- sion formed by a Canadian vis- itor after talks with top busi- nessmen, politicians and jour- nalists here. Tales by the miserable return- ing five per cent of emigrants-- the rotten apple found in every barrel--have been given far more publicity in the British press than have the success stories of the happy 95 per cent. But in any case, now that hard work and skills have converted Britain into an affluent island enjoying full employment at rec- ord wages, there is little incen- tive for the happy, well-fed, trained Briton to emigrate. That is one loss to us. More grievous is the change in attitude towards Canada of British investors and businesses. A buoyant economy, a bullish stock market, high interest rates and the imminent huge free trade area in Europe; all these are attracting U.S. and other foreign capital to Britain. Why then should British capital seek outlets in Canada, where high and rising production costs have bogged down expansion, and where, as one reads in British newspapers, gloom and impending doom are eloquently hailed by such world-famous Canadian Politicians as Hon. Paul Martin? LIBERALS DAMAGE CANADA The political posturings of front bench Liberal M.P.s are alas costing many Canadians good jobs, as British industries are frightened away from plans for expansion into Canada. Nevertheless Canada's future possibilities still allure some staunchly loyal British friends in top financial circles, who re- call our past achievements and hope for their revival. Prominent among such friends of Canada here, I found, is Sir Denys Lowson, one of London's richest financiers, whose family has long participated in the de- velopment of Canada's re- sources. His father, the late J. G. Flowerdew Lowson, owned extensive pulp and paper inter- ests in Canada, and built two mills--at Ha Ha Bay in Quebec and at Ocean Falls in B.C. Sir Denys Lowson made an official tour of Canada when he was Lord Mayor of London a few years ago--the first such tour ever made, and by the youngest Lord Mayor since the storied Dick Whittington; in con- nection with his business inter- ests he visits Canada twice a ycar now. He is chairman of Ontario's Algoma Central and Hudson Bay Railroad; also of Canadian Collieries Resources, Ltd, in B.C.; also of South Winnipeg Limited, a real estate company; and he has wide in- terests in pulp and paper, in- vestment trusts and other Ca. nadian companies. INTERESTED IN CANADA Last week, in the British House of Commons, Sir Denys Lowson was host at a 'dinner with strong Canadian overtones. Among those who, like me, re. ceived invitations were R. B, Murray, secretary of the Ca. nadian Club; Sir William Me. Fadzean, chairman of British Insulated Callender's Cables, Ltd., which is laying the nat- ural gas pipeline under the sea between Vancouver Island and the mainland of B.C.--a project based on the successful PLUTO or "pipe line under the ocean" which fed gasoline from Britain to France on D-day; Sir Cuth- bert Ackroyd, another former Lord Mayor of London and re- cently host to Queen Elizabeth as chairman of the Victoria League, a society dedicated to Commonwealth interests. Politics were represented by Earl Jellicoe and Martin Red- mayne, respectively govern- ment Whips in the House of Lords and the House of Com- mons; and by Anthony Barber, M.P., Economics Secretary to the Treasury. Canada was pres- ent in the persons of High Com- missioner George Drew and Manitoba's Agent-General Mur- ray Armstrong. Chairmen and directors of shipping and air lines, investment trusts and commercial undertakings, all with interests in Canada, made up the balance of the all-male all-friends-of-Canada guest list. It was significant that here the solid longterm business worth of Canada was recognised to the exclusion of transient political jibes and journalistic sensations QBN; 7 4 S57 COOL "wv \©.
