Wilson, Publisher THURSDAY, JULY 5, 1962 -- PAGE 6 -_ Saskatchewan Doctors Disregard Law The situation as reported in Saskat- chewan is one that has far-reaching significance; and, consequently, we believe warrants the interest of every Canadian. The doctors in that pro- vince have deliberately decided to disobey a law which was enacted by a properly elected government of the people. They have refused or with- drawn their services from the citizens of Saskatchewan, refusing to practice under the government's medical care insurance act. We are not in any sense stating opposition to the claims of the medical profession, but we are very much concerned with the methods being used to force it's will upon the elected government of the people of Saskat- chewan. We have been outspoken against certain types of pressure used by some labor organizations to sway governments. Certainly, such actions must not be condoned in a law-abiding society. Hope Dawns The Milwaukee Journal recently had this to say editorially on the changing economic picture in Italy: "Ttalians often say that. there are two Italys, one the prosperous in- dustrial north and the other the poverty sticken south, known as the Mezzogiorno. The situation is chang- ing, however. Under the impact of a program somewhat similar to this country's TVA, the depressed "bottom of the boot" has been dramatically revived in the last dozen years. "A recent Italian government report reviewing achievements of the past and projecting further economic ex- pansion discloses that for the first time in 1961 the southern area had a rate of economic growth higher than that of the rest of the nation. "Net income rose 14% in the south compared to 8.9% in the north. Great- est increase was in agriculture. In- comes of southern farmers, who until recently eked out a living on dry lands which they tilled much as in feudal days, were up 23.6% compared to 3.9% for northern farmers. "Percentage increases can be de- ceptive, of course. They nevertheless suggest the progress that has taken A Romantic Vice-president Johnson of the United States came to his high office through the rough campaigns the American politician must endure, says the Ottawa Journal. But he is a romantic cavalier at heart, fit to grace any court. Said The Journal: "Recently arrangements were made to return from the Capitol to the White House on loan a massive crystal chandelier.

Once Again place. So do figures on public and private investment. "Since 1950 more than $2.7 billion has been spent in the south. Public works have cost $1.9 billion. They have been mainly for land reclama- tion, irrigation, transportation and power development. Private invest- ment totalling $800 million has been mostly for the establishment of small industries.

This, plus the anticipated migration of more than a_ million workers to the industrial north, should solve southern Itay's persistent un- employment problem, the report says. "What is proposed is unquestion- ably a big order. But the progress of the past and the 'economic miracle" that has occurred through- out Italy provide hope that an area which has known only misery and poverty for centuries may be made self-sufficient." Cavalier invited Mr. Johnson to "say some thing historic." This sort of invitation to speech would bog most politicians in a marsh of inanities but Mr. John- son was quite admirable.. He said: "The legislative is always reluctant to relinquish anything to the execu- tive, but we all agreed on the loan of this chandelier, because any lady who has put the White House in such a good light with such splendor and glowing manner is certainly entitled to our co-operation." : Now? work week. Here and there, three- day and even four-day weekends are mentioned. Admittedly this all has the ring of fantasy today. But some of the most sober analyses in the economic sphere suggest that reality is moving in the direction of these fantasies. Says The Star: "A shrinking fraction of Canadians are today directly engaged in produc- ing goods, The rest of us have to make our living shuffling these ' goods about, or "dealing with people' in various business and professional re- lationships. "It has been suggested that perhaps only those in these latter fields: will be safe from the machines encroach- ments. Yet who is to say that even such persons are not expendable?"

At present many letters and groups of letters, especially vowels, are pronounced in different ways in different words. For exam- ple, the foreigner is terribly confused by the different pro- nunciation of the words plough, cough, though, ought and enough. English is increasingly being accepted as the common tongue among 'he emerging nations of Africa and Asia. So urgent is fluency in English that, for ob- vious and menacing rea dns, Russian schools teach it three times as intensively as Ontario schools teach the language of Quebec. SON OF MOTHER TONGUE But English, largely owing to its confusing pronunciation, is becoming as non - uniform in various countries as French is in France and Quebec. So Brit- ain's Minister of Education, Sir David Eccles, has urged that England and U.S.A. -- but surprisingly not 'British North America' (Canada) -- co-oper- ate in standardising their lan guage and promoting it around the world. He pointed out that the diver gencies are increasing, and deplored this trend towards Balkanisation into Oxford Eng- lish, Nev York English, Russian English, Chinese English, and so on, much as the language of the old Roman Empire became diversified into Italian, Spanish and French. Eccles pointed out as an apt example that the phrase 'I'm mad about my flat'? has en- tirely different meanings in England and U.S.A. In London, that means 'I'm enthusiastic about _my apartment." To illustrate pronuncia- tion difficulties, he might have told about the foreigner learn- ing the language in London, England, who finally gave up when, passing the theatre where the latest play by the well-known Noel Coward was enjoying a triumph, he read the blurb "Cavalcade pro- nounced success" TRANSLATOR NEEDED? Pronunciation is also the heart of the tale about the Yankee tourist who signing the visitors' register in an English country hotel, remarked that some other guests had cumber- TODAY IN HISTORY By THE CANADIAN PRESS July 5, 1902...

The students from 500 differ- ent schools, were polled by editors of Sixth Form Opinion, a magazine published onc a trm by studnts and sold for half a crown. Thousands of condemned their parents as "bossy, inquisitive and offi- cious,"' The most common com- plaint was that parents choose their children's friends. About 12 per cent said they were ashamed cf their mother, father or both Writer John Penycate said several teachers had com- plained that students should not judge their parents, but added: "They might as well deplore the shape of the globe." com- th students Although many of the stu- dents, ranging in age from 16 to 18, said their mothers out- nagged their fathers, most .ad- mitted they turned to their mothers with personal prob- lems. More than half the male stu- dents said they had received no sex education from their par- ents. Only 30 per cent of the girls made the same complaint. Twenty-five per cent of the males are not allowed to smoke or drink. One-third of the girls may not smoke but only one- fifth said their parents would not allow them to drink (The legal.age at which liquor may be consumed in Britain is 18, compared with 21 in Canada.) Nearly all the students said their parents did not insist they attend church. BY-GONE DAYS 25 YEARS AGO Col.

McINTYRE HOOD Special London (Eng.) Correspondent For The Oshawa Times DUBLIN, Eire Although the sale of tickets in the Irish Hospital Sweepstakes is strictly against the law in Canada, hun- dreds of thousands of Cana- dians three times a year chase the pot of gold at the end of the rainbow represented by this mammoth horse race gamble. Inspired by the hope of win- ning the first prize of $150,000, they manage to buy tickets on the sweepstakes from all sorts of mysterious sources, and then wait hopefully for the draw made here in Dublin. For the few who are lucky in the draw it means a_ substantial fortune. For the vast majority there is only disappointment. YOUR HEALTH Tiny Impulses Here in Dublin, I have been visiting the headquarters fices of the Irish Hospital Sweepstakes. 1 saw them at the peak of activity, with some 3,000 employees engaged in handling the millions of counterfoils coming in from all over the world for the Irish Derby race, on June 30. FOUR ACRE BUILDING The Sweepstakes headquar- ters is house in a huge single storey building covering four acres. Its main hall is filled with masses of rows of desks, at which, in the rush~ periods, 3,000 employees, mostly wom- en, process the counterfoils and make a permanent record, in- cluding a photostat copy of every one received. I"hey even- tually find their way into a huge revolving drum, which In Brain Lobes By JOSEPH G. MOLNER, MD "Dear Dr. Molner: What pur- pose does an electro-encephalo- graph serve? May. abnormal conditions exist after a so-called normal or negative reading?-- 5 Bae Tiny electrical impulses rise and fall in various lobes of the brain. The electro - encephalo- graph (or EEG) detects these by means of wires attached to various strategic spots on the scalp. The patient feels nothing, but the rise and fall of the electrical impulses are recorded on a strip of paper, and fall into patterns which can be in- terpreted. Certain abnormal patterns are found with epilepties of various types; in some in- Stances special patterns may appear in people subject to certain types of severe head- aches Tumors, if they exist in the brain, can be located accurately with the EEG Infections, hem- orrhage and other conditions also will affect the patterns. The EEG, therefore, is an extremely useful device. I doubt whether we have yet come close to discovering all of its possible uses. Nevertheless, it everything we know. Some disease conditions can exist very deep in. the brain, or in the cerebellum or. rearward part, and not mani- fest themselves in the EEG rhythms After all, having a normal temperature, or normal blood pressure, doesn't mean that a person may not have some ail- ment which doesn't affect these elements. No, a "negative" EEG isn't proof that na abnormal condi- tion exists, but it is mighty reliable in detecting -- or dis- proving--certain conditions. "Dear Dr, Molner: Is it true that when you eat raw onions your blood count goes up?-- Mrs. H. L." No. The only thing is to give your husband a break, and have him eat. some raw onions, too "Dear Dr. Molner: My boy friend and I are planning to marry soon.

Is there any- thing we can. do to be sure they will be healthy, sane children? Many small faults become big ones if the same characteristic exists in both parents, and that is why some states forbid. mar- riage of first cousins. There is no way of telling for certain whether babies would be nor- mal, and there is nothing you can do to be sure they will be healthy."

But for three days be- fore going into the drum. the counterfoiis are thoroughiy mixed, in a mixing, machine ready for the draw. On the day of the draw six nurses are stationed on a plat. form alongside the huge drum. It is known in advance how many tickets have to be drawn. The drum is revolved about a dozen times, and when it comes to rest, one row of portholes is opened, and each nurse picks out one ticket and hands it to one of the Commission- er's aides. The number of tick- ets drawn depends on the total amount of money received. The drawing process continues un- fil the required number has been drawn. The notices go out all over the world to those lucky enough to have drawn a horse in the sweepstake. HUGE SUMS INVOLVED How much money is actually received in these sweepstakes is not divulged. I was told, how- ever, that in 1961 the following amounts were paid out in prize money! Grand National $10,- 722,540; The Derby -- $10,063,- 740; The Cambridgeshire $10,- 715,340 How much money actually goes for the support of Trish hospitals? From figures given this would amount to 25 per cent of the total proceeds. Since the sweepstakes were inaugurated over $414 million dollars have been paid out in prize money to over 428,000 prize winners. In the same period, the hospitals' fund has received over $168 million. These amounts together total $582 million. And on top of that is the substantial expense of operating the sweepstakes, in- cluding the salaries of 1,500 permanent employees, with 3,000 of a staff at the three rush periods of the year. Truly, the Irish Hospital Sweepstakes are big business, and after visiting their head- quarters, I am convinced that they are bigger business than most of the participants real- ize, Politicians Lacked Election Courage By DON 0'HEARN TORONTO -- Would a frank presentation of Canada's: posi- tion today and the step neces Sary to meet it have won an election for any party in the re- cent federal campaign? There is no question that no party dared face the realisms of our present situation. They all knew them--or at least there were prominent peo- ple in their ranks who knew and realized them. They all knew that our finan- cial position particularly was precarious and that we were heading for some lean times ahead before it could be cor- rected. But none of them had the courage to risk their political skins with a forthright presenta- tion of just where we stood and what. would have to be done. And there are those, including the writer, who think that thereby they probably passed up their chance of winning an election PRACTICES OUT-DATED? It is the traditional attitude of politicians to look on the elec- torate as stupid and spineless Political campaigns by cus tom have been keyed to the low levels. There are drastic changes in progress in our way of life to- day. And pur political methods and altitudes almost certainly will be undergoing them. Historically the approach of the politician has been to either buy or blind the voter, and if possible do both. It has been to ignore the dis- agreeable and promise him manna, : Now one can see the day com- ing when the approach well may be io stress the disagree- able and the ability of one's party to meet it with courage.

But 0 prove a point there is the one question of employment We have unemployment now, We are going to have substan- lial unemployment for some time ahead. : The simple fact is that a good portio® of our work force isn't trained for today's conditions.

No. The PC's put forward an optl- 'mistic employment figure which was built by pump - priming public works (The number of workers building technical schools across the country at this particular moment alone must be quite sensational.)
