Che Oshawa Gunes Published by Canadian Newspapers Limited 86 King St. E., Oshawa, Ontario T. L, Wilson, Publisher TUESDAY, APRIL 9, 1963 -- PAGE 6 Diefenbaker Should Not Delay Pearson Takeover Early this morning Prime Minis- ter Diefenbaker, with his party nearly 80 seats back of the leading Liberals, was still in a mood to "wait and see'. It was the same mood of delay and indecision which led directly to Conservatives losses in 1962 and again yesterday. Mr. Diefenbaker seemed to think he should first talk things over with his shattered cabinet and wait for the service vote results. He will gain no friends by doing so. There is only one decent course for him to follow, and that is to submit his resignation to the Governor-General and clear the way for Liberal leader Pearson to get at the business of government, ' That business is now in sad disarray. An enormous amount of work -- including preparation and presentation of a budget -- needs to be done. Parliament needs to be convened as soon as possible. With a margin of 30 seats over his closest opponent, and the likelihood that the service vote will put him very close to a clear majority, Mr. Pearson is obviously the man to get the business under way. The margin between the Liberals and Conservatives is too great for Mr. Diefenbaker to repeat Mac- kenzie King's juggling act. of the middle Twenties. To retain a pre- carious hold on the government, he ' must have the support of both: the Social Creditists and the New Democrats, and he is not going to get it. The sooner he resigns, the better. In general, the election emphas- ized the rural agrarian trend of the Conservatives under Mr. Diefen- baker, and the weakness of the two small parties. There may be ques- tions among the New Democrats about the leadership of T. C. Doug- las. The Social Credit tide in Quebec is on the ebb, thank goodness, and it is doubtful if the party can»ever again be considered a national in- fluence, Needs In Recreation Ontario has an area of 360,000 square miles, but 50 per cent of the population of Ontario is jammed into 5,700 square miles around the central and western portion of Lake Ontario. In the "Mississaga Conur- bation", the intimidating name given by planners to the area cover- ed by the ten counties of Ontario, York, Peel, Hamilton, Wellington, Waterloo, Brant, Wentworth, Lin- coln and Welland, the population density averages 525 persons to the square mile -- the equal of the average population density of Bri- tain and West Germany, which are the second most densely populated countries in Europe. By 1980 it is estimated there will be half as many people again living in this area as there are now, and by the year 2000 there will be twice as many. And the working hours of this growing population will be shorter, their leisure time longer; the great boom in outdoor recre- ation will continue, with greatly in- creasing pressure on the available recreation resources. These are the facts which, in the main, have prompted the Conser- vation Council of Ontario to present a brief to the Ontario government on the need for an outdoor recre- ational survey for the province, There is indeed a need for such a survey. As the Council points out, meeting the demand for outdoor recreation in Southern Ontario has become a regional problem which can only be satisfactorily dealt with by planning on a regional and provincial basis. Some might say that there is plenty of space for recreation in the North. But the North is far away; even the near-North is close enough only for weekend trips. Recreation areas which can be visited for a few hours or a day are also needed. There is a clear need (to quote the Council) "for a comprehensive survey and analysis of the whole outdoor recreation problem in the province so that we may know, among other things, what resources are available for recreation under both public and private auspices, what the demand for these resour- ces is likely to be at five-year inter- vals over the next 20 years, what legislative changes and other in- novations may be needed to meet this demand, and how, when, where and to whom the $200 million should be allocated" -- the $200 million being the sum the Ontario govern- ment proposes to spend over the next 20 years for the acquisition of shore lines and other lands for recreational use. Doctors Plan Crusade The Canadian Medical Associa- tion's committee on cancer has un- animously decided to recommend that the Association mount a vigor- ous, country-wide campaign to per- suade people to stop smoking cigar- ettes. The CMA will undoubtedly approve the recommendation. CMA President Dr. M. R. Charles has already gone on record as saying: "When some of my colleagues and I graduated, lung cancer was almost unknown. But it has increased re- markably, and is now eight to 10 times what it was 20 years ago, The major part of this increase is due to cigarette smoking... We - think something in the way of a campaign is called for in order to restrict smoking and to prevent r is excl entitied to the use of republication of all news Seer mac at Keke Gad wl te eed Associated Press or and also the local mews published therein, All rights of special des patches are also reserved.

There is no doubt, too, that the evidence probably justifies a campaign of the sort proposed by the CMA committee. It would. be dangerous, however, if in their en- thusiasm for a crusade against cigarettes, the doctors managed to create the impression that there may not be many more factors in- volved in the increase in cancer of the lungs -- and cancer in other parts of the body. The fact is -- and medical re- searchers acknowledge it -- that much remains to be discovered about the causes of cancer. Evidence has been produced to link cigarette smoking with lung cancer. But evi- dence has also been produced to link air pollution with the same disease, although much less research has been done on this than on the effects of smoking. And virtually nothing has been done, in the way of research, on the effects on human beings of the increasing widespread use of chemical poisons. Intensified research into the effects of air pollution and the use of chemicals is urgent. It would be a pity if concentration on cigarettes" as a scapegoat took attention away from other dangers 'SHALL WE BAT THE OLD BALL AROUND? REPORT FROM U.K. Artistic Success But Financial By M. McINTYRE HOOD Special London (Eng.) Correspondent For The Oshawa Times EDINBURGH, Scotland -- The Edinburgh International Festi- val of Music and Drama has become one of the greatcst events of its kind held annually anywhere in the world. In an artistic sense, it has won world-wide recognition.. Each year, during the three weeks of its operation, it attracts prob- ably a quarter of a million visi- tors from all parts of the globe. For hoteliers, storekeepers and boarding-house keepers, it is a bonanza, giving them their greatest harvest of the year during these three weeks. Yet, financially, the Festival itself is a gigantic money-loser. Lord Provost Sir John Greig Dunbar of Edinburgh has just issued the financial statement YOUR HEALTH for the 1962 Festival. As Lord Provost, he serves in the capac- ity of chairman of the Festival Society. STAGGERING LOSS The financial report he has submitted to the socieiy's an- nual meeting showed that the operating deficit on the 1962 fes- tival reached the staggering amount of $346,000. This was the second highest deficit in the his- tory of the festival, being ex- ceeded only in 1961 when it was $3,900 less than in 1962, This operating loss of $346,000 was, however, reduced to a net loss of $54,000 by means of gen- erous gifts and donations. The Edinburgh Corporation donated $150,000 payable, of course, from the municipal taxes, The Scot- tish Committee of the Arts Coun- cil contributed $60,000. The Scot- tish' Command of the Army, 2-Year Treatment Removes Birthmark By JOSEPH G. MOLNER, MD Dear Dr. Molner: I read a letter in your column for a woman whose infant daughter has a birthmark on the arm. It was described as being ex- actly like my daughter's "strawberry nevus," with which she was born. By the time the baby was three months old it was the size of a quarter. It was on her wrist--raised and lumpy. We took her to a dermatolo- gist. He gave her x-ray treat- ments for two years, He said that by the time she is six years old the mark would vanish. She is not quite five now, and it is completely gone-- no scars or any sign. We are eternally grateful to the derma- tologist. Perhaps you can for- ward my letter to the mother if you have her name in your files, or if not just print my message for parents with a similar problem, so that they will know something can be done about ugly birthmarks.-- MRS, F. M. You are right. Something can be done about ugly birthmarks, Not always the same thing, because it depends on the case. I don't save letters from read- ers. I accept them as confiden- tial, and if I want to keep one, I cut off the name and address with a pair of scissors. I cart forward your letter to the mother--but anyway I can print it for all parents who are worried about birthmarks, stains, strawberry marks, moles and so on. Some of these marks fade spontaneously. Some are' better left alone until a child is older, when they can be removed by simple office surgery, or by plastic surgery, depending on location, or can be obliterated by electric needle. Freezing with dry ice techniques is also sometimes used. Of all the kinds of "'spots be- fore the eyes,' none causes so much 'concern as the blemishes on a child's' skin as seen by parents, Being a father myself, I understand. There are mighty few of these blemishes that cannot be corrected, But as I said, not all respond to the same treatment. How does a physician choose which is which? He can't, with- out a great deal of technical training--and that's why some doctors become dermatologists, or. skin specialists. I'm not a dermatologist. How- ever, if one of my children had had such a birthmark, I would have gone to a-specialist and asked him what to do. By vir- tue of his experience, he could have told at a glance (or maybe after close examination) what kind of blemish, and the best way to erase it with the least sign afterward, if any. He might have, as in the case of Mrs. F. M.'s daughter, been able to predict the time within which, after treatment, the birthmark would disappear. It takes skill to do this, but skill is available. Dear Dr, Molner: I have the beginning of a double chin. I am not fat, either. Is there any exercise or other method to prevent it?--R. K, A double chin comes from one of two things: Overweight, or a sag in the skin. Since you aren't fat, that leaves the other. No exercise will help this, but if it becomes a muisance so far as appearance goes, plastic sur- gery can correct it. ~ and home phone number.

Write immediately, name, address, business BOX 520 OSHAWA TIMES which stages the military tattoo at Edinburgh Castle, gave $24,- 000 of its profits to the Society. Gifts from private donors and business firms amounted to $56,- 000. Thanks to these donations, and to the reserves from past years, the Edinburgh Festival Society is still solvent, and has assets of about $60,000 in excess of its liabilities. One noteworthy point in the report is that the administra- tive costs of the festival re- mained about the same as in 1961, at about $231,000. COSTS HIGH A significant feature of the re- port shows that the top-class items on the festival, while at- tracting large audiences, cost far more to produce than is taken in at the box office. Opera, as in former years, showed the largest deficit Costs exceeded receipts by $75,600 in spite of a total attendance of 23,353. persons or 89 per cent of the capacity of the theatre. This, however, was well down from the loss of $115,500 on opera in the previous year, Orchestral concerts, with an attendance of 78 per cent of capacity, showed a loss of over 29,000. A spectacular revue, staged at the Murrayfield Rink, had an attendance of only 53 per cent of capacity and showed a loss of $18,750. One of the few items to show a profit was the presentation of the play "'Young Auchinleck" at the Gateway Theatre. It had an attendance of 97 per cent of capacity, and finished up with a Profit of $1,575. HISTORY TODAY IN By THE CANADIAN PRESS April 9, 19638... General Robert E.

Grant at Appomaitiox Court House, Va., 98 years ago today -- in 1875 -- to effectively end the American Civil War. by the end o f May the rest of the Southern forces had laid down their arms. The Civil War cost some 500,000 lives and tens of thousands of soldiers returned with their health permanently im- paired. The public debt of the Union had risen to near- ly $3,000,000,000.

OTTAWA REPORT Own State Sought By Black Muslims By PATRICK NICHOLSON OTTAWA -- The separatist movement in Quebec has @ wealthy and well - organized paratiel in the "Black Muslims" in the United States. This sect is not interested in mere de- segregation; it wants to set up an independent state within the territory now comprising the U.S. And now it has announced its intention to seek its aims through political action. The Black Muslims is a secret organization. No white man has ever been admitted to a meeting in one of its temples. No revelation of its numerical strength has ever been made, although it is considered to be Church Seeks More Freedom In Red Areas By JOHN ORGAN ROME (Reuters)--Despite a current thaw between the Ro- man Catholic Church and the Soviet Union, there is no sign of any compromise between them on essentials. A reminder of the continuing underlying tension is provided by a public exhibition here en- titled The Martyred Church of Today which displays the suf- ferings of Roman Catholics in Communist countries. In 1960, Alfredo Cardinal Ot- taviani, secretary of the Vati- can's Supreme Congregation of the Holy Office, publicly criti- cized contacts between Western statesmen and those who "slap the face of God." He condemned the apparent race "to be the first to shake hands and exchange smiles with the oppressors of the church." MET SON-IN-LAW Now Pope John himself has shaken hands in the Vatican with Alexei Adzhubei, son-in- law of Soviet Premier Khrush- chevy and a member of the So- viet Communist party central committee. Many believe that Pope John's talk with Adzhubei has cleared the way for him to re- ceive Khrushchev, should the Soviet statesman visit Rome. Small contingents of bishops from Poland, Hungary, Czecho- slovakia and Yugoslavia were allowed by the Communist au- * thorities to attend the first ses- sion of the Vatican ecumenical council. For most, it was their first direct contact with the Vatican after many years of isolation. More bishops from Commu- nist countries are 'expected when the ecumenical council; the church's first world assem- bly for nearly a century, re- assembles here Sept. 8. NEW GESTURES Two observers from the Mos- cow patriarchate of the Rus- sian Orthodox Church attended the first session of the ecumeni- cal council, Later, the leader of Ukrainian-rite Catholics in the Soviet Union, Archbishop Josyp Slipyj, was released after nearly 18 years' detention. Statements from both the Vatican and the Kremlin appeal for peaceful coexistence in the world and the avoidance of force in settling disputes. Catholics hope for more free- dom for believers in Commu- nist countries and an opportu- nity to repair some of the havoc wrought under Stalinist - type regimes. But the bitter legacy of post- te years has not been forgot- en. The Martyred Church of To- day exhibition uses the latest display techniques to paint a Picture of repressive measures taken against the 63,789,000 Ro- man Catholics who live under Communist rule. They repre- sent 12 per cent of the world's Roman Catholic population. CARPET COMPANY 282 King W. 728-9581 RUG CLEANING Ask for "The Best in the House" BOTTLED IN BOND the fastest-growing association among the U.S.'s population of 20,000,000 colored citizens. Unlike the French-Canadian race, the United States' colored race has no specific territorial base regarded as its homeland, as the province of Quebec is "home" to Canada's "Jean Baptiste'. So the Black Mus- lims are formulating a vague demand that Washington should cede a huge tract of rich fer- tile land, somewhere in the United States, which could be established as a homelend for the colored people of the U.S. Washington would be expected to subsidize this new independ- ent colored republic for one generation, to enable it to grow into economic stability. GEOGRAPHIC PARALLELS While this project echoes the ambitions of the more extreme nationalists in Quebec, it also has overtones amd echoes of Tecent developments in other rts of the world, Like Israel, it would be created as an artificial homeland for a certain ethnic group, to which the faith- ful would be expected to mi- grate. Like South Africa, it would constitute a self-contained independent country for a seg- ment of the present populaticn, copying the project of Bantustan which is the practical applica- oe South Africa's "apart- eid". The Black Muslims, as their name implies, also has very. important religious aspects. Arab Moslems question the basic doctrine of these new co-religionists; they argue that the faith of Islam is all-embrac- ing, and does not countenance racism such as the Black Mus- lim separatist movement seeks. On the other hand, the Black Muslims strictly enforce upon their members such basic teach- ing among the "Thou shalt nots" as drinking alcohol, smok- ing, using oarcotics, stealing, eating pig, getting into debt and --most important--showing dis- respect towards women. EMERGING NATIONS LEAD Like French-Canada, US. has watched, with interest and with a certain amount of envy, the emergence of the new nations in Africa' into independ- ence. If the former French colonies in Africa can now be fully self-governing, with their own flag and their own am- bassadors around the world, why cannot we? they ask. Among the Black Muslims there is an extra envy rei the achievement of inde ence by those former co in Africa, whence their fore- fathers were carried off into slavery. Their African home- Gebwasits ant seltauapaiel washers and se! ogg aig which colored families the U.S. now enjoy; but ves nati do have their own flags! _ This movement in the U.S. has one very imoprtant parallel with the more extreme move- ment in French - Canada. They mo longer seek the which is their constitutional right under the laws of the United States. They don't want any condescending and overdue "hand-outs" from the descend- ants of 'the slave-owners who first subjugated their race. No; what they seek now is complete independence--to be their own masters in their own newly- created homeland, The Black Muslims have onl recently come to the forefront, But with their numbers comes a 'substantial war chest. 'Their leader, the 65-year-old Chicago "Prophet", known as The Hon- orable Elijah Mohamet, has the funds to buy time weekly on 34 radio stations for his talks, to publish several weekly news- papers, and to build a sparkling new $200,000 temple in Wash- ington, CONDEMNS KISSING JOHANNESBURG (Reuters) What is a kiss? "A lot of germs," says a Johannesburg doctor, "and they can be dan- gerous." Although the risk is small, a number of youths do catch virus infections. "And you can certainly blame those teen-age kissing sessions," he says.
