The Oshawa Cines Published by Canadian Newspapers Limited 86 King St. E., Oshawa, Ontario T. L. Wilson, Publisher TUESDAY, DECEMBER 12, 1961 -- PAGE 6 Canada's Trade Deals With Commie Nations George DeYoung, president of Atlas Steels Limited, did not mince words when he spoke recently to the Economic Club of Detroit on the subject "Why Does Canada Trade With Cuba, Red China and Russia?" Said Mr. DeYoung: "It is obviously meant to be a provo- cative title and I suppose it is to Ameri- cans. It is not provocative to Canadians, who are actually much less insular in their outlook than you are. I have had the experience of leaving an American steel mill and joining a Canadian one. All the Americans who have joined Atlas before and after me, and I, have re- marked on the great change of attitude and horizon needed to do business in Canada. We cannot exist on the home market, therefore we establish goals on a world-wide basis." He then pointed out that trading with Russia, Cuba and Red China is not frowned upon as much by Americans when it is done by Americans as when it is done by others, and quoted statis- tics to prove his point. In 1958, Canada sold $24.6 million worth, largely in grain, to Russia, while the United States sold $3.8 million worth; by 1960, Canadian sales had dropped to $8.2 million while US. sales had risen to $38.4 million -- 'while we have evidently been outsold and are losing our Russian business, it may have been because the United States has gotten the business away." The figures for shipments to the Soviet bloc show the same trend -- increasing US. sales and decreasing Canadian ones from 1956 through 1960. In 1956, Canada sold $15.3 million worth to Cuba, while the United States sold $519 million worth. In 1960 the figures were $13 million for Canada and $222.5 million for the United States. The first six months of this year show a tremendous drop in U.S. sales, to $12.6 miJlion and an increase in Canadian sales to $15.3 million, but "there are reports which hint that there is much American trade with these countries which will not appear in the official figures." Then near the end of his speech he asked a pertinent question: "I have grave doubts about your being interested in buying the tons of wheat the Iron Cur- tain countries and China have purchased. Would you be interested in buying steel and manufactured goods?" Limitations Of Science Dizzy antics in space have made the scientistic a figure of public veneration. Every nuclear belch from behind the Iron Curtain is followed by outcries that our schools produce more technicians and more scientists. The danger was once that the man in the street would not realize that there was a need for more and more people trained in the disciplines of scientific research. Now the danger is that he may feel science can solve all problems, and that he may attribute to scientists a quality of wisdom which is wholly outside their sphere. As Dr. P. Krusch, Columbia Univer- sity's physics chairman, recently pointed out, science is not a form of black magic in which it is necessary only to find the right incantation to achieve a result. Dr. Krusch used this example: 'It is foolish, for example, to engage in a public policy that increases the tadioactive burden of man's natural en- vironment in the belief that science will inevitably find a way to protect man's genetic heritage from irrevocable dam- age from radiation. I do not assert that science cannot do this; I do assert that it is not known that science can do this and that we must not proceed under the assumption that it can." An important limitation of science is that it does not, in itself, yield value judgments, because the excellence of a course of conduct or the wisdom of a policy are not wholly determined by a framework of knowledge; these things depend, in part, on the meaning of ex- cellence and wisdom to the individual. Science alone cannot lend grace and purpose to life. All it can do is help to create the physical conditions conducive to grace and purpose. Because scientists speak with great authority on matters within the scope of science, it may be thoughtlessly assumed that they speak with equal authority on almost any subject. But when they do so, their only authority derives from their experience and knowe ledge of other matters, amplified by their knowledge of science. Historic Water Route There is a whiff of romance in the proposal of the Selkirk, Man., Chamber ,of Commerce that the water route from Winnipeg to Edmonton (via Lake Win- uipeg, Grand Rapids, the Saskatchewan and. North Saskatchewan rivers) be revived, There is romance, but not much realism. This is the route used by fur traders and explorers in their movement up into the Mackenzie River region. Indeed, the comparative ease of movement by water led to the Pacific being reached before the southern prairie area was explored. The Selkirk chamber of commerce recalls that this was the freight route to the West, until the arrival of the rail- way in the early eighties made it un- economical. The claim is now made that the water route would be less ex- She Oshawa Times T. L. WILSON, Publisher C.

This suggests that in less than a century there has been a whole turn of the wheel so far as transportation of freight is con- cerned, But the water route of the early years was a perilous one. There were portages over which the freight going west and the furs coming east had to be carried or hauled. There were rapids to run with canoes and York boats. The opening up of the West has had its effect on navi- gation of all the rivers and lakes, with silt from the broken Prairie sod filling the rivers, the Moose Jaw Time-Herald comments. There was navigation of a smaller scale on the South Saskatchewan river and steam boats actually plied its waters from near Medicine Hat up to the further north than Saskatoon. The last of these river steamers came to grief by becoming entangled with ferry cables during the Riel Rebellion in 1885, One of these steamers was for long years in the North Saskatchewan river near Prince Albert, until comparatively re- cent times, To make the Saskatchewan River navigable from Grand Rapids to Edmon- ton would be an enormous undertaking and an exceedingly costly one, except for small craft, the Moose Jaw paper concludes, Bible Thought With great pains I have provided for the house of the Lord a hundred talents of gold, a million talents of silver, and iron beyond weighing.

At the earlier count, there were 14,009,429 people living in Canada. The early estimates of our population this past summer show an increase to 18,168,000. That increase of approximat- ely 4,159,000 is of course by far the largest ever recorded be- tween two every-10-year census counts. The jump in the pre- vious 10 years was our record hitherto, and that amounted to some 2,502,000 additional Cana- dians. The largest population gain was achieved by Ontario, which added 1,610,000 residents to make a new total of 6,208,000. Quebec came next, adding 1,162,000 residents to expand to a 5,000,000-person province--the exact population is 5,217,000. Our fastest growing provinces are in the West. Alberta added 41 per cent to its population, to rise over the 1,000,000 mark for the first time, and British Co- lumbia added 40 per cent, or 471,000 new residents, to achieve a total of 1,636,000. P.E.I. added 7,000 citizens to rise above the 100,000 total, but its seven per cent growth was Canada's smallest. It was just excelled by askatchewan, which added 10 per cent to reach 918,000 residents, and thus just beats. out Manitoba's new total of 912,000 to remain our fifth-most-populous province. When the complete tabulation of the census figures is avai- REPORT FROM U.K. Financial Trouble For Labor Party By M. McINTYRE HOOD Special London (Eng.) Correspondent To The Oshawa Times LONDON -- With a deficit of something like $250,000 in its funds, the Labor party is in bad shape financially. Even the slight increase in the political levy made at the recent party conference will not. remedy the situation quickly. It will take even longer if a campaign which is now being waged by the Con- servatives meets with any measure of success. In the con- stituencies, on doorsteps and by the factory gate, Conservative spokesmen are urging their fel- low-workers who do not support the Labor party politically to contract out of paying the political level. : This is an opportune time of the year for the Tories to wage this campaign to persuade work- ers to withdraw' from support- ing the Labor party finances. Before the end of the year, they have to decide whether they wish to continue paying the political levy with their union subscriptions, or sign the neces- sary form to be relieved of pay- ing this levy into a party which they do not support politically. LABOR FIGHTING BACK Most of this political levy cash goes into the Labor party's political funds. The Conserva- tives argue that this is unfair, because hundreds of thousands, possibly a million or two, of the contributors are either political- ly uncommitted, or even vote Conservative. ee The Labor party ts fighting back hard. So are pro-Labor union chiefs. According to the current issue of the 'Conserva- tive News Letter" their tactics at times "falls little short of psychological intimidation". _ One Conservative official says "Workers who want to con- tract out of the political pay- ment are made to feel that they are the black sheep of the trade union movement. In fact, there are many thousands of Con- servative trade unionists." By the end of 1960, from the start of the post-war political struggle, more than one million trade unionists had contracted out of paying the Jevy. Last year alone, the number added to the list was 88,000. If the Conservatives succeed in keeping up the pressure this year, the Labor party will be faced with a serious financial problem before the time of the next election. The target of the Tories is to have shoals of con- tracting-out forms signed and in the union offices before Decem- ber 31, the final date for sub- mitting these forms to be effec- tive during 1962. TORIES ARE HOPEFUL If the number contracting out is sufficiently large, the Labor party will either have to keep raising the political levy rates or be content with much less cash from the unions and more from the political membership outside the unions. Two recent issues have given the Conservatives high hopes that they can beat last year's contracting-out figures. They are the Electrical Trades Union ballot-rigging scandal, and the statement made by Mr. Gait- skell at the party conference in Blackpool that three out of every. 10 trade unionists vote Conserva- tive. . larger than that of the whole of British Columbia, : our tpifd- most-populous province. "More >; surprising, we will probably learn that our Queen City, "Tory Toronto," is no longer predominantly an Anglo-Saxon- Scottish community. The huge inflow of "ethnic" immigrants over the past decade has re- duced those of British descent to a minority position. Anyone who is interested by figures may be surprised to know that our 10 years' growth would still have been a record without any immigration at all. We are filling up the wide empty spaces--largely of our overcrowded cities!, -- faster through the Canadian cradle than through the immigrant steamship today. . About 4,463,000 Canadian bab- ies were born in the past dec- ade; 1,518,000 new Canadians ar- rived here in the past decade: Of these new arrivals, 407,000 came from Britain; 495,000 from Northern Europe; 105,000 came from U.S.A.; and 511,000 came from all other areas of the worl d.in the same period we lost approximately 500,000 Ca- nadians by emigration, chiefly to U.S.A. Births in Canada outnum- bered deaths by more than three to one; 1,321,000 Canadians died between 1951 and 1961. In contrast to our population expansion of just over 4,000,000 over the past decade, it is in- teresting to note that China adds 16,000,000 to. her popula- tion each year, and the popula- tion of U.S.A. has grown by 3,000,000 since President Ken- nedy was elected. While the above is not based on the official census figures, which are not yet available pub- licly, I can say that I obtained them from "a usually well-in- formed source in Ottawa." Some of the vital statistics of past years I obtained from that invaluable and invariably help- ful source, the Dominion Bureau of Statistics; others from the Bank of Canada. If you have a child who is ever troubled by simple arithmetic, please use my own recent experience to comfort him--or her. I had con- siderable trouble in reconciling the figures I. was working on be- cause somewhere I had lost a round million Canadians! In time I traced this to the fact that the Bank of Canada in its addition had made one plus two equal four. INSIDE YOU Age, Sex Items In Hip Trouble By BURTON H. FERN, MD Why the fuss about age and sex? It's only hip trouble! Normally, the rounded top of the hip bone -- called "femur" -- grinds a deep socket in the pelvis. But loose ligaments al- lowed one femur to dangle be- fore birth, and Tammie arrived with one shallow socket -- an especially female ailment. The femur clicked into joint when you spread her tiny knees. Muscle spasm stiffened the hips, and creases along buttocks and thighs didn't match evenly. When Tammie began to walk, she would have limped as the femur slipped in and out of joint. But diapers -- pinned to the sheets -- held her hips bent and rotated outwards in frog - like position. Now the femur could grind a deeper socket. Pillow- filled diapers and plaster casts work the same way. BOTH HIPS SOUND By the time Tammie first stood -- trying to reach the cal- endar -- she could count on two good hips. Perthe's disease attacks chub- by teen-aged boys. The rounded top of the femur begins to crumble. Tim limped because one leg couldn't swing back. His knee ached more than his hip -- they share many nerves. But muscle spasm pinpointed his hip trouble. Home-bound for a whole year --first in a plaster cast, later hobbling on crutches -- Tim now relishes that long walk to school each morning Like many older men, Grand- pa Tom suffers from osteoar- thritis of the hip. The joint is wearing out and breaking down. X-rays show bony ridges and icicles growing around the joint. They crackle when he walks. Trimming weight and getting off your feet lighten the load on hip joints. So does the cane Grandpa Tom uses! Aspirins, linaments and soothing heat calm all his aches and pains. DOING FINE He's doing fine without sur- gery or stronger medicines. Most days, he walks to school with Tim! Age and sex? Very important whether you have lifp trouble or not. Most Canadians To Have Parched New Year's Eve By MEL SUFRIN Canadian Press Staff Writer New Year's Eve will be a dry night for most Canadians planning to celebrate the ar- rival of 1962 in nightclubs. It falls on Sunday this year and in most provinces the liquor regulations will prevent cabarets from serving alcoholic refreshment. A cross-Canada survey by The Canadian Press shows that only in Quebec, Nova Scotia and Newfoundland will licensed public places be permitted to serve liquor, beer and wine New Year's Eve. j In some provinces, such as British Columbia, Alberta, Sas- katchewan, Manitoba and Prince Edward Island, it's pos- sible to get a banquet permit for serving liquor at parties in rented halls after midnight Sun- day but, for the most part, this is limited to private groups. Even in Quebec celebrations will be curbed becausé the flow must cease no later than mid- night. The province will be un- der normal Sunday regulations. This means that in cabarets liquor may be sold with meals between 6 p.m. and midnight. In other licensed establishments, sales are permitted between noon and midnight on Montreal Island, Ile Jesus and in Quebec City; and between 1 p.m. and 11 p.m. elsewhere in the prov- ince. SOME CLUBS CLOSED Some nightclubs in Montreal won't bother to open that night. The Mocambo is thinking of op- erating just to give customers a chance to start a party before going on to their homes to con- tinue. Nova Scotia law permits li- censed dining rooms to serve spirits on Sundays until 11.30 p.m. Holders of licences may apply. for extension "long enough within reason to take care of their requirements," says E. K. Aston, chief inspector of the tavern licence committee. Nova Scotia's few cocktail bars, always closed Sundays, are out of luck. However, ban- quet permits may be issued to any group that normally would qualify. In Newfoundland private clubs with a regular liquor licence may open their bars Sundays. The liquor board may also is- Foreign Students Give Opinions About Canada OTTAWA (CP) -- Canadians, in the eyes of foreign students living here, display a lengthy list of admirable and not-so-ad- mirable characteristics ranging from coldness and TV _hypno- tism to freedom from discrim- ination. The Ottawa Journal inter- viewed 12 foreign students studying at universities in the capital and _ published their frank and, at times, anything- but diplomatic comments about their hosts. Here's a sampling of com- ments: Mohammed Sahib, 30-year-old Fiji student taking a master's degree in economics, found "not even an inkling of discrimina- tion." Gunilla Blome, 23, journalism student from Sweden, says Canadians are "lazy but friendly and less stiff than Swedes." Teen - agers here be- came aware of each other too early. "Most Canadians are hypno- tized by their TV sets. They can't turn them off.'"' Canadian newspapers were "'a little bit meagre on book and art re- views, theatre and cultural ar- ticles."" FEW IN SPORTS Kebew Ashagrie, 24, a politi- cal science student from Ethio- pia, found too little encourage- ment to play sports. "It is too expensive. Most people would rather watch profes sional sports." Nasir Khan, 19, Indian engi- neering student, says Canadians are vigorous and progressive, superior physically and men- BY-GONE DAYS 20 YEARS AGO Mayor J. C. Anderson, KC, entertained at a banquet in Hotel Genosha 11 evacuee chil- dren, along with the aldermen and senior city officials. George Lee was appointed Chief Ranger and Ed Hender- son, secretary, of the Canadian Order of Foresters by acclama- tion at a meeting of Court Osh- awa No. 501. Eleven consecutive years of Board of Education meetings without being absent once was the remarkable record which was set up by Mrs. B. C. Colpus, chairman of the Oshawa School Board. Edith Newman was elected president for 1942 at the meet- ing of the Daughters of England Lodge. The report of T. R. McEwen, public school inspector, showed that 1,689 pupils purchased war savings stamps to the amount of $1,750 during November, bring- ing the total for the term to $21,368. Chamber of Commerce had purchased 150 evergreens for downtown Oshawa to be erected on the metal poles provided for that purpose. Ebenezer Church at Courtice, observed its 75th anniversary with the pastor W. C. Smith conducting the special services. Dr. James Semple of Belleville, former Moderator, was the guest speaker, Military music featured the concert of the Ontario Regiment Brass Band held in the GM auditorium in aid of the cigaret fund for district soldiers serving overseas. High tribute to the quality of the products which were being made by General Motors of Can- ada for the Allied Armies, was expressed in a letter to R. S. McLaughlin, president of the company, from a high ranking official of the British Dept. of Munitions and Supply. Roy Lick of the Oshawa dis- trict of Ontario Federation of Agriculture was chairman of the meeting when V. S. Milburn, secretary of the Ontario Feder- aiton of Agriculture, addressed the Ontario group at Brooklin. Distinguished . visitors were present at the special meeting of Court Oshawa 24, IOOF, when 35 candidates were initiated. tally to most people in India. But they took their high stand- ard of living for granted. Domingos Valente - Neto, 25, Brazilian studying business ad- ministration, says Canadians are "nice but they worry about atomic war and radiation too much." Zaheer)) Khan, 27, Pakistani studying for a sciénce doctor- ate, likes Canada _ because "there is not as much hustle and bustle as in Britain and the United States and because Can- ada does not develop destruc- tive nuclear bombs." He finds. Canadians a little less warm - hearted than East- erners but about the only thing he actively dislikes is Canadian diet. "I'm highly thankful for having an Italian landlady. She makes a good dish of chili con carne--about the only Canadian na that resembles Pakistani ood." ARTS NEGLECTED Terry Varaklis, 27 - year - old native of Teria in northern Greece studying engineering, Says Greek youths are 'men- tally riper" than Canadians be- cause for them reading takes TV's place. He feels the arts are badly neglected. Neverthe- less, he is becoming a Cana- dian citizen. Julie Huang, 22, who came to Canada from Red China via Hong Kong, and is in her final year of science, says she en- countered no discrimination; on the contrary, Canadians try to be "overly nice," bordering on "gushy."" Eduardo Yin Vega, 23, of Panama, says Canadians are "rather cold'? and he has found friends among foreign students. Chung-Yuen Lo, 19, of Sara- wak, in second year pre-medi- cal studies, says Canadians are ignorant about his country but ready and willing to take time to understand foreigners. "For- eigners tend to stay too much to themselves." Bill Fredson-Cole, 21, from Sierra Leone, says he thinks French-and English - speaking Canadians are overly concerned about language problems. At home 12 languages are com- monly spoken. Othman, 21-year-old Malayan chemistry student, says Malay- ans think nothing of popping in on friends at midnight for a so- ciable chat. 'You could hardly expect that here." sue special licences to night- clubs and hotels. Mrs. John Ryan, owner of the Crystal Pal- ace nightclub on St. John's out- skirts, says she hasn't applied for a permit yet but that one city club has received a licence and '"'as far as I know, we will be allowed to open." Private .parties held outside the home in Newfoundland don't need a licence providing they high open to the general pub- ce. PERMITS IN B.C. In British Columbia regular licensed premises will be pro- hibited from serving liquor but banquet permits will be issued, effective at 12:01 a.m. The nightclub drought hasn't deterred Isy's in Vancouver from putting on a 10 p.m.-to- a.m. celebration at $20 a couple for smorgasbord, a floor show, hats and balloons. Victoria has no nightclubs but a member of cabarets are plan- ning drinkless dance parties at $12 to $14 a couple. The tables have little shelves for people who choose to flout the law by . bringing their own bottles. Many Alberta hotels have can- celled New Year's Eve celebra- tions although a few will have dancing with pre-midnight din- ner. Most clubs offer dancing from 12:01 a.m. but only priv- ate clubs may serve liquor, un- der special banquet-type per- mits, between 12:03 a.m. and 3:36 a.m. New Year's morning. Saskatchewan's public places will be dry both before and after midnight. Permits.may be issued for private parties who rent public places but few ap- plications are expected. These will be effective a minute after midnight. The same situation applies in Manitoba where at least one major Winnipeg club has de- cided not to bother with any celebration. ONTARIO DRY In Ontario, licensed public places will be forbidden to sell liquor from 11:30 p.m. Saturday until noon New Year's Day. The province has even cut out banquet permits. Restrictions also apply to private clubs. New Brunswick, with its new liquor act not due to come into force until next year, is covered by the old regulations that per- mit drinking in private clubs but only after midnight Sunday. One such club in Saint John has de- cided not to bother. "'To open at 12:01 a.m. and have: the members stay around until 4 or 5 a.m. would be just an incon- venience to everyone," the man- ager said. Prince Edward Island, with no licensed dining lounges or cocktail bars, issues banquet permits that take effect after midnight. The 12:01 opening also applies to private .clubs with their own bars. PARAGRAPHICAL WISDOM It is deplorable that in so many cases the difference be- tween right and wfdng is iden- tical, respectively, to the dif- ference between what @ person. ought to do and what he wants to do. "To make shoes last, keep them in a dry closet." -- House- hold hint. Thanks. Now tell us how to treat a stubbed toe. "Adam was created before Eve to give him a chance to say something," says a para- grapher. Say something to whom? If it weren't for a special providence, the life expectancy of a boy riding a bicycle fn city traffic would be about four hours. Instead of being their age, as they should, many oldsters make the serious mistake of trying to be the age they wish they were. Industrious Japs Turn To Dangling Participle TOKYO (AP)--The sign in the Tokyo apartment house said: "The elevator is under re- pair for the next two weeks. During that time we regret that you will be unbearable." In a pre - war Tokyo clothing store, another sign intrigued foreign visitors. It announced: "Ladies have fits upstairs." Between the clothing store of the 1930s and the apartment house elevator stretches a vast Japanese wasteland. It is h studded with mangled adjec- tives, misplaced verbs and broken sentences of a genera- tion which has tried, but not succeeded, in mastering the English language. But tough, with some signal exceptions, the Japanese have failed they have not given up. An industrious people, they have thrown themselves into the pur- suit of the dangling participle with a verve usually reserved for street demonstrations, base- ball or mountain climbing. Among the most popular ra- dio and TV programs are the English lessons. One Japanese professor is in such demand he appears as himself on one show and in a handlebar moustache in another. NEAR SENSATION Books which purport to unlock the mysteries of eigo -- English --are selling faster than dried squid. One; called The Book That Strengthens Your Eng- lish, by Professor Kazuo Iwata, has created a near sensation. In two months it has sold 800,- 000 copies and the end is no- where in sight. t is a rare stranger who has . not been approached by an eager youth with these ques- tions: 'Sir, may I speak Eng- lish to you? How old are you? Do you have a wife? How many children do you have? How much money do you earn?. What do you think of Japan?" The decision to stage the Olympics in Japan in 1964 has prodded the study of English from a canter to a full gallop, with the horse wildly taking its ead. If Itawa's book is any criter- ion, foreign visitors to the games should be warned before- hand that they may encounter some strange and wonderful English from their well-mean- ing hosts. Iwata notes that some people find that they learn English more quickly by reading "sexy" books and he throws in a few four-letter words which might be of use since they appear in no dictionary. The words would have curled the hair of Lady Chatterley's gamekeeper lover. STRANGE IDIOMS In the more reprintable sec- tions of the book he lists many idiomatic phrases which will be of real use to the student.- But the strong spices he adds--with- out warning--to this salad give cause for pause. He says, for example, without a word of explanation, that "in modern society, many words are made by mixing words." If the Japanese take him seri- ously, the unsuspecting for- eigner may emerge from a movie and hear his companion observe: '"'Wasn't it sexciting. Quite a sexperience, don't yop think?"
