2 THE OSHAWA TIMES, Wednesday, July 25, 1962 Civil Service Salary Freeze Rapped By CLC OTTAWA (CP) -- The Cana- dian Labor Congress, voice of More than 1,000,000 organized workers, has criitcized the fed- eral government's pay freeze for civil servants as unfair, dis- criminatory and demoralizing. CLC President Claude Jodoin said Tuesday the decision points up deficiencies in procedures governing the relations betwen gama and staff associa- s. government was deferring con- sideration of recommended pay increases for 50,000 federal civil servants during the present Canadian Postal Employees' Association. A joint statement from the Civil Service Federation of Can- austerity program. BOOSTS RECOMMENDED The pay boosts were recom- mended by the civil service commission and were to apply to clerical, administrative and semi - professional personnel. About 20,000 of them are in Ot- ada, the Professional Institute of the Public Service of Can- ada, and the Civil Service As- sociation of Canada said in part: "The government's decision, in effect, imposes an exclusive wage freeze on one group of ci- tawa. Mr. Fleming asked the em- ployees to view the govern- ment's decision "understand- ingly." Reaction was swift. "It stinks," said Dan Cross, president of the 10,500-member Dymond Says No Medicare For Ontario TORONTO (CP) -- Ontario Health Minister Dymond says the provincial government has no thought of introducing a medical plan along the lines of Saskatchewan's. Commenting on the success- ful negotiations between doctors "The present method of ar- bitrary and unilateral decision- making by the government is not satisfactory and is not con- ducive to good employer-em- ployee relations," he said in a statement. "The recent changes in the Civil Service Act are obviously fiot as good as has been al- leged.

Halifax . problem: WOULD EASE TENSIONS The thesis is that if the nu- clear powers can agree on jlesser issues, tensions will be eased and the path made easier .|for agreement on the larger problems of disarmament. The Canadian government's j\policy has been to push for ac- i\tion on these first steps. It re- iigards two of the most impor- i\tant first steps as being a ban on nuclear weapons tests and an agreement to prevent a wid- 4jening of the nuclear club. One of Canada's diplomatic tactics has been to seek support in international negotia- tions from. among the neutral nations. Its criticism of both United States and Soviet nu- clear tests have been in line e The Mexican approach aims| at solving the problem of which side has the final blast. The U.S. said its recent series of tests was necessary because last fall's Soviet tests endan- gered American security. The Russians have given the same reason for the new series of tests they have recently an- nounced. President Kennedy in- dicated Monday that more American security is again weakened. WOULD IMPLY APPROVAL Canadian diplomatic sources in Ottawa say Canada can't agree to the Mexican sugges- tions, since it would imply ap- proval for further testing and Canada is dead set against this. Mr. Green's persistence in wanting to plug away at the Geneva conference table in search of any and all agree. ments that might lessen tension was shown in his opposition at Geneva to the idea of adjourn. ing talks there during the fall session of the United Nations General Assembly.

"Now the children have pre- pared a show for you.' We were seated around a sandy rectangle with a stage. On the stage was a large por- trait of Lenin. The bright - eyed children marched on pudgy legs to their chairs, single file, by squads. POEM TO LENIN A girl of seven strode to the centre of the stage and recited: "Once I became lost in the forest, and I became cold, and the darkness fell, and I was afraid that I would die, but comrade Lenin found me and made me warm and showed me the way to safety." The girl smartly faced right and marched to her seat. With gusto, the children sang to piano accompaniment: On the stage is a portrait. It is of Comrade Lenin. Hei s known to everybody. He is smiling especially at me. After the last Lenin poem was intoned, we were shown the dormitories and dining rooms, also guarded by pictures of | Lenin, and draped in flags and) hung with slogans of commun- ism.

Vernon Staie, 16, of Ogdens- burg, N.Y., died of head injur- ies after running into a diving board while water sking on the river. About 30 minutes later, swim- mers found the drowned body of Lorne Severson, 35, of Pres- cott about half a mile upstream from the site of the water ski- ing accident. He had been seen alive about four hours earlier. The water skier crossed the river from his hometown in a fall in the Soviet Arctic. declined due to decay of short- lived radioactive products which make up the bulk of ra- dioactivity reaching the earth immediately after a nuclear ex- plosion.

"If every baby is vaccinated as the minister of health is ap- parently suggesting then he is asking for a sacrifice of at least 20 babies-a year." Dick said childhood vac tion combined with adult revac- cination is no safer than adult vaccination alone. He also de- nied the belief that infant. vac- = protects a person for e. ; He suggested vaccination in children protects only about 10 per cent of the population at on time so the disease can still spread. Therefore mass vaccin- ations should be conducted only in times of threatened epidemic when the risk of disease is greater than that of the vaccin- ation. Under ordinary circum- stances, vaccination should only be applied to the "right peo- ple," Dick said, including im- migration perscnnel, health and fever hospital workers, doctors and nurses. "But the vast majority of peo- ple living in Britain are not at risk from smallpox, never have been and probably never will Dick led a team carrying out recently announced experi- ments with a four-in-one vac- cine protecting against polio, diphtheria, tetanus and whop- ping cough.
