She Oshawa Times Published by Canadian Newspapers Limited 86 King St. E., Oshawa, Ontario T. L. Wilson, Publisher WEDNESDAY, SEPTEMBER 26, 1962 -- PAGE 6 More Direction Needed For Regional Progress Hon. Robert Macaulay, Ontario's iminister of economics and develop- ment, has touched on a theme develop-. ed in these columns several months ago -- financial burden placed on municipalities by the necessity (or the supposell necessity) of hiring spe- cial staffs to engage in a bitter com- petition for industry. Mr. Macaulay on Monday told the annual conference of the Georgian Bay Development Association: "Many smaller communities in On- tario do not have resources necessary to establish local agencies such as planning boards and industrial com- missions and it may well be that the provincial government will consider éxtending some form of financial aid... It would seem to me that all development associations could pro- vide guidance and aid which would be helpful in compensating its smaller communities for the lack of such advisory bodies." Mr. Macaulay gave his approval to the "Program of encouraging muni- cipalities to help themselves to greater prosperity, coupled with direct and indirect government aid." Earlier in the month, Premier Robarts led a delegation of members of the Legislature on a safari into Northern Ontario, during which he said: "Northeastern Ontario contains more than 105,000 square miles and is a treasure house of natural resour- ces. Yet it supports a population of less than two people for each square mile. Compared to the lack of natural resources and dense population growth - in Southern Ontario, it is natural to conclude that means must be found for the north to attract and accom- modate a greater share of the ex- pected increase in population of future years." : The two statements should be con- sidered together. When that is done, one can only draw this conclusion: The problem of orderly provincial development is recognized but for the present at least the government does not have anything more constructive to offer in the way of a solution than the tired old formula of municipal competition and development -area organization. And this is just not good enough. One has only to look at the Metro situation in relation to the rest of the province. The un- bridled, unhappy and misdirected growth of the Metro Toronto area continues, creating future problems and aggravating existing ones, while many other parts of the province are starved for new industry. While the North remains thinly populated, the rich farm soil of Southern Ontario is vanishing under an asphalt jungle. A much more positive approach to the regional development of Ontario industry must be taken by the gov- ernment. It could start with a study of the archaic municipal structure. Policing A Test Ban According to scientists of 35 coun- tries -- including the United States and the Soviet Union -- who gathered recently for the tenth Pugwash Con- ference, machines could be used to police a nuclear test ban agreement. The scientists agreed unanimously that the machine-police, while novel, would be practical and virtually fool- proof. The machines would be sealed seis- mographic stations, put in place by the nation concerned -- Russia would place the stations in Russia, the Americans would place the stations in the United States, and so on. Per- iodically the stations would be turned over to an international authority to determine whether any nation had tried to sneak an underground bomb test -- the tests in the atmosphere are easily traced by other means. Apparently the sealed stations could. be constructed to reveal any attempt to tamper with them and would show, by their own records, whether they had 'been placed where they were supposed to be. Therefore there would be no need for foreign inspection te#iza to enter a country for checking purposes, and the big stumbling-block in the international 'TRY THIS LONG- TERM ALTERNATIVE, SIR' YOUR HEALTH ° Love Much Better Than Pacifier Use By JOSEPH G. MOLNER, M.D. Dear Dr. Molner: What about the wisdom of giving a baby a pacifier?--Mrs. F.J.B. Of late there seems to be a change of attitude. Many pedi- atricians no longer object to pacifiers, mainly on the basis that they are better than a thumb, I don't regard a pacifier as of great importance in compari- son to so many other health problems. A healthy, well-nour ishéd, abundantly-loved infant seems to grow up without need for a pacifier and with mini- mum need for sucking a thumb. It's the wistful, worried, re- jected or lonesome little ones who seem to resort excessivly to th thumb for solace. For them, perhaps a pacifier, being softer than a thumb, is better. We've seen some truly severe deformities of teeth and mouth in children who became inveter- ate thumb-suckers. The steady REPORT FROM U.K. argument: over a test ban agr t would be overcome. The London Times commented: "Isistence by one side on a right of inspection and by the other on freedom from inspection has seemed in countries not directly concerned to amount to obduracy on the part of both. Yet on this, the central issue, neither side will budge." The proposal of the scientists seems to resolve the dilemma of the dead- lock. If the Americans and the British now put the sealed-station proposal to the Soviet Union, it would either bring about a test ban agreement or it would reveal, once and for all, that the Russians were not in the least interested in such an agreement, dspite all. their protestations of con- cern for the fate of humanity. Protecting Children More than 500 pedestrians are killed each year in Canada: and thousands injured when struck by automobiles, according to the All Canada Insurance Federation. Many of those killed and injured are children, and with schools in ses- sion again across Canada, extra pre- cautions are needed to protect the lives of youngsters. The Federation, which represents more than 200 fire, casualty and automobile insurance companies, offers these safety sug- gestions to parents and drivers: Start early to teach children the recognized rules and habits of safety.

Correspondent For The Oshawa Times EDINBURGH, Scotland -- In- vestigations now going on Esk- dalemuir, in Scotland, into seis- mic disturbances and theit recognition, have disclosed that it may be possible to have a world - wide nuclear detection system with far fewer stations than is thought necessary at present. The discoveries made could have 'a. vital bearing on negotiations for a ban on the testing of nuclear weapons. Sir William Penney,. deputy-chair- man of the Atomic Energy Au- thority, is of the opinion that through them the number of sta. tions needed for world-wide de- tection of nuclear blasts could be reduced to 20. The previous figure, and one which has been a_ stumbling- block in the way of an agree- ment on banning nuclear tests, has been 170. Not only would these 170 stations involve a large number of territories, but many of them would have to be on American and on Russian soil. LESSEN PROBLEMS If the'number of detection sta- tions could be cut down to 20, as Sir William suggests, or even further to 12, a figure put for- ward by E. F. Newley, deputy director at Aldermaston, the problems being encountered in the nuclear disarmament dis- cussions at Geneva would be correspondingly lessened. The first major task for the scientists at Eskdalemuir was during a project when depth charges were exploded in the English Channel. They mon.tor- ed the signals coming through the earth from these explosions. Other experiments of a simiiar nature are scheduled to take place in the North Sea and the Irish Sea in the near future. HUB OF EXPERIMENT It is the signal-noise ratio that fs the crux of the experiments. The seismologists have been able to pick up the extra sig- nals which might have been made by man and his various explosive devices. Sir William Penney stressed, however, that no matter how ef- ficient the detectors were, and howéver good the signal - noise ration, there will always be the possibility of doubt. He said that the 20 stations should be able to detect all explosions. But the exact identity of these sig- nals may have to be followed up by examining records collected nearer the spot. CHEAPER POWER Mention of this new project Is made in the eighth annual re- port of the Atomic Energy Au- thority, which also gave details of a new type of gas-conled re- actor of an advanced type, known as the AGR. It should be turned on at full power before the end of the year. Present in- . dications are that the AGR type of. reactor will produce elec- tricity at a cost of 0.45 pence a unit. This is 0.2 pence a unit cheaper than the most efficient of the nuclear power stations now being built, and 0.15 pence a unit cheaper than the most modern conventional coal or oil- fired generating stations now going up. Sir William stressed that the AGR figure is, if anything, much too conservative. If the reactor does as wéll as he ex- pects, if it lasts reasonably long, and if everything goes ac- cording to plan, the price of electricity from a large AGR station should in fact be about 0.35 pence a unit. Eventually, these large AGR type stations will be built, but no action in this direction is likely until the experimental station has been in operation for at least a year. It is not likely that large-scale AGR sta- tions will be generating elec- tricity on a commercial basis before 1970. and prolonged pressure can do real damage. But in these cases I seriously doubt whether the thumb-vs.- pacifier controversy is of ma- jor q' as pared to the real question: Why daes the child feel so forlorn that he depends on the shallow com. fort of his thumb? A bit of casual thumb-suck- ing is nothing for anyone to worry about, but there is no ex- cuse for keeping a_ pacifier handy to stuff in baby's mouth to shut him up when he whim. pers. _Feed him, cuddle him, change him, talk to.him, make the lov- ing effort to find out why he's unhappy, and then the pacifier problem evaporates completely. Dear Dr. Molner: A friend told me that a little girl got a big black ant in her ear. It laid eggs and now there are ants in her head. The girls at work said they don't think it could really ip Please settle this for us Mark Twain once said about a false report of his death that it had been greatly exaggerated. The 'same goes for this story about the ant. Bugs do get into people's ears, but there is no place for them to go except out again. How. ever, they can make one mis- erable, not only from the noise they make against the ear drum but from irritation of the ear canal. First aid for a bug in the ear is to drown the critter. Have the person lie on his good ear; pour warm mineral oil into the invaded ear and float the insect out. _ Or if a small syringe is handy irrigate the ear canal with warm water, with about half a 'teaspoonful of either salt or soda added to a glass of water, Dear Dr. Molner: Can any- thing be done to correct round shoulders in a young man of 21? He is in college and I'm afraid is too studious and does not get enough exercise, Telling him he should stand straighter doesn't help.--Mrs. R.W. People can sit up as they study--and stand up when they walk to class. Round shoulders don't result from being too studi- ous; they are from permitting poor posture to become a habit. The problem can become fixed if he doesn't decide that he wants to correct it. It's late, but not too late for him to make considerable improvement if he will get some exercise and also consciously stand erect. BY-GONE DAYS 25 YEARS AGO Jimmy Bartlett, Oshawa long distance runner, won the all- Canadian marathon champion- ship in a race at Forest Hill making a new record. Hon. Harry Nixon, provincial secretary, was chief speaker at a a rally in Whitby Town all. H, J. Carmichael, general manager of General Motors, told the tariff board at Ottawa that the shortage of steel in Canada was a serious handicap to his company. A railway car of fruit, vege- fables and canned goods was loaded at Oshawa by voluntary donations to go to families in the Saskatchewan drought areas. E. W. Webber, president of South Ontario Agricultural So- ciety, announced that the Fair had a substantial surplus as a result of its 1937 operations. Over 200 Rotarians from 11 district clubs attended an inter- city sports day sponsored by the Oshawa Rotary Club, A ban- quet was held in Genosha Hotel with A. E. Kirkpatrick, of To- ronto, the guest speaker. Stewart Learmouth retained the Oshawa Tennis Club's doubles cham- pionship for 1937 and A, W., "Army" Armstrong won the singles title. The Board of Railway Com- missioners for Canada ordered the installation of a bell and wig-wag at the Raglan CPR road crossing. Gordon D. Conant, Liberal candidate in the provincial elec- tion, went ona speaking tour, in which he addressed meetings at St. Thomas, Ingersoll and Kitchener, T. H. Hall, of Oshawa, won the pony class exhibit at the Lindsay.

Most interested people in Brit- ain--and the sensational front pages of the newspapers ener- getically coralled the uninter- ested--ruefully concluded that they were witnessing a wake. The longterm interests of the Commonwealth and indeed of the world were being wantonly staked by one man--Macmillan --against 'his partisan short- term interests and his country's very short term economic ad- vantage.

There, along with a pint of beer, one could hear what the majority of Britons think--and one. could sense the great deal which _ READERS' VIEWS DOLLAR SAVING Dear Sir: I can see no reason for com- placency in the highly compli- mentary remarks about our dol- lar-saving measures by the managing-director of the IMF. Apparently 'he had Canadian briefing prior to the press con- ference because what he said was a repetition of what we had been hearing. If the $500 million climb in our exchange reserves -- to a total of $1,600,000,000 against a former $1,900,000,000 -- is due to the austerity measures then we must be well away. However, our imports have been climb- ing faster than exports so it would appear that the above is an indication of the large amount of "'short-selling" of our dollar before the crisis, and this is now correcting itself. Our flow of merchandise 1s about $500. million a month each way. Exporters were tempted to hold back on convert- ing foreign currency into Cana- dian dollars hoping to get a big- ger exchange premium, and im- porters to anticipate their. for- eign currency requirements by purchasing in advance. There was also considerable foreign speculation. The excessive interest rate to attract U.S. dollars and the $250-million 3-year loan add the bewilderment, It seems to me we are sweeping our prob- lem under the rug. A tax incentive (refund) for foreigners would be an- other gain for foreign control. --JOHN GILBERT Hanover THANKS Dear Sir: On behalf of the Board of Directors of our Church, I would like to express our appreciation of the co-operation your paper has given us and: the courtesy extended to us.

It tackles one of our most vi- tal problems. It has been shown that one of : the main causes of unemploy- tion, and considerable envy, from here. It is felt that Mr. Lesage has pulled a master stroke in call- ing his snap election on power ownership. It is taken for granted that ment is an over-ab untrained and uneducated work- ers. We have been frantically bringing in skilled workers for jobs that should have been filled from our own labor pool. And if we are to get the new industrial production that we need we must have more skilled workers. This is the nut of the problem facing the committee -- though from there it goes into wide- spread ramifications. With this particular select committee, unlike some others, there can be some confidence that it may make a contribution of some value, Its personnel is much better than average. And its chair- man, J. F. Simonnett, PC from Frontenac-Addington, could be outstanding. : Mr. Simonnett, an automobile dealer in his forties who entered the house in 1959, has impressed as one of the better recruits of recent years. : Premier Lesage of Quebec .is getting long + distance admira- TODAY IN HISTORY By The Canadian Press Sept. 26, 1962...

His widow was later elected prime minister, the p will give him a man- date on the question, probably an overwhelming one. And he will not only be en- trenched in office but will have taken much of the play away from Social Credit in his prov- ince. There are many yearnings for Premier Robarts to come up = something along the same ne. Party leaders have felt for some time that the premier, if he is to firm up his party, needs to do something dramatic. However, he does not have an issue of this stature on hand. And one can't see where he might dig one up. Practically anything bold he might propose--such as a medi- care scheme -- would already have been backed by one or both the opposition parties. One straw of good cheer for the government is that it is now being favored to win the Huron- Bruce by-election. Even some Liberals incline to this view. They recognize that the P.C.'s have an exceptionally good can- didate. And while their own man also is good he is. young--and they are afraid he may be too young for the rural areas--and they dominate the riding. The PC's had better hold the seat. If they don't the consequences could be drastic. Authors!
