Control Of Fertility - 'The American College of Obste- i and Gynecologists has join- | the long list of medical associa- tions approving of the provision of information on birth control to pérsons who want it. The College's action prompted a question at President Kennedy's press conference in Washington last week. Mr. Kennedy's reply: ""If you question is, can we do njore, should we know more about the whole reproductive cycle, and should this information be made njore available to the world so that everyone can make their own jadgment, I should think it would be a matter which we could certainly *This cautious support is in line with recent recommendations of the U.S. National Academy of Sciences. Its report on population control ufged that the United States gov- ernment "actively participate" in studies of fertility control and family planning. The Milwaukee Journal notes that an eminent Roman Catholic gyneco- logist has now galled for elimination of the "miasma of exaggeration and distortion" that marks the conflict between Roman Catholics and others over birth control. Dr. John Rock, Harvard professor emeritus and co-developer of the oral fertility control pill, says in his new book, "A Catholic Doctor's Proposals to End the Batttle over Birth Con- trol": . "There is wide agreement on the fundamental principle that parents should have only as many children as they can care for .'. . There is é@ agceement (c . over how this dutiful limitation may be achieved." Dr. Rock's plea is for a "public policy of tolerance". He thinks that such a policy, by freeing medical research establishments " for a concerted effort in fertility con- trol, offers the only practical. road to the solution of both the doctrinal differences between Catholics and non-Catholics on family planning methods, and the world's population explosion." Meanwhile, in Canada, the law still says that contraceptive infor- mation is obscene. Fisheries Protection Prime Minister Pearson has plenty to talk about during, his visit with Britain's Prime Minister Macmillan -- so much, indeed, that ' time will permit only the briefest i of views on some subjects. 'One of the subjects getting a passing mention will probably be British action to withdraw from the hist@ric convention on the three- mile limit for protected off-shore fisheries. Edward Heath, Britain's Lord Privy Seal, told the House of Com- mons on Tuesday that turbulent changes in fishing habits have taken place in northern waters and the government no longer feels justified in dénying British fishermen some extension of their rights in their own coastal areas.

Avenue, the three-mile limit, the implication being that the limit will be expected to at least six and perhaps 12 miles. This is the action which many (including this newspaper) have urged on the Canadian government. The Diefenbaker government and previous Liberal administrations made some effort to change the three-mile limit through interna- tional agreement, but they failed and made no attempt to take such unilateral action as has been taken by Britain and several other coun- tries earlier, Mr. Pearson, however, is pledged to do something about extending the three-mile limit along Canada's coastlines. On Tuesday he said his government will he going ahead with its own proposals and plans. He recalled that during the election campaign he had proposed an extension to 12 miles, and this may mean action by Canada alone. That is good news. The Canadian off-shore fisheries need protection from the new, destructive methods of fising used by some nations. There are trawlers, for example, which dredge the bottom, scraping it and spoiling conditions for bottom-feeding fish.

For The Oshawa Times LONDON -- The report from Australia that decimal coinage is to be adopted by that coun- try, and that it will probably have the changeover completed in about three: years, has aroused considerable interest in YOUR HEALTH changing to decimal currency, its purpose being to advise: the government on the various im- portant aspects of the change. 'Lord Halsbury's committee has finished its task of collect- ing evidence, and its report is now in the process of comple- tion. The report will be pre- sented to the Chancellor of the Exchequer, who will follow nor- mal parliamentary practice by After 1S-Y TEL 'AVIV (Reuters' il i Tells Fine Story By PATRICK NICHOLSON OTTAWA--What has the West effete East lack?

MOLNER, MD Dear Dr. Molner: Your arti- cles on hysterectomy and the Pap test interested me very much. Recently I had a hysterec- tomy as a result of a Pap test. I went to the cancer centre because I didn't know a doctor as I've always been in perfect health. A friend later gave me the name of her doctor. Two biopsies were done before the operation. It's hard to explain my feel- ings just now about all this. It's like a miracle, a dream. The cancer was detected so early. I'm only 30 years old. You see, I just went for this test "out of the blue." Now my doctor calls me "Mrs. Fortun- ate."--MRS, K.Y. The important thing is that here--very likely--a life was saved. Yes, the cancer might have been discovered later, and in time. Or it mght have been discovered too late. I can see nothing wrong with having free tests if they are available. Use them. That's what they are for. Certainly several scores and perhaps several hundreds of 'women, probably most of them older than Mrs, Fortunate, had Pap tests about the same time she did, and: were told there was nothing to worry about. It's the one woman in many that we seek--the one who can be saved if the danger is dis- covered in time. I hope Mrs. Fortunate keeps telling her friends. She saved herself by following a hunch. By telling her story, she can save some others. Dear Dr. Molner: Our daugh- ter is eight months pregnant. Her doctor insisted on having an x-ray. before he would de- liver the baby. Now everyone tells her she should not have had it done. What danger is TODAY IN HISTORY | By The Canadian Press May 2, 1963 ... King Charles II signed a charter granting the Hud- son's Bay Company ail the territory in Canada draining into Hudson Bay 293 years ago today--in 1670. Agents of the company pushed into the virgin land to trade with the Indians for valuable furs and spread the influ- ence of the company acnoss Canada. After Confederation in 1867 the Dominion of Can- ada bought the vast terri- tories held by the company for $900,000. 1945 -- The Soviet army announced the fall. of Ber- lin. 18909 -- 'Temporary gov- ernment was established in Oklehome Territory. there from haying one x-ray?-- I lose patience with these calamity howlers who seem to enjoy frightening other people gratuitously. Yes, there is dan- ger to the baby (not the mother) from xray exposure early in pregnancy. This means the first three to four months. The risk is virtually nil in the last month or two since by then the baby is well-developed. And an x-ray at times can be most important in assuring the safety of both mother and child at delivery. Please ignore the com- ments of "everyone." Dear Dr. Molner: My father is 88 and has been in perfect health all his life. He still goes to his office. However, his eye- sight is failing rapidly and he was advised to have an opera- tion. He thinks he is too old. I believe you have written that age does not prevent such op- erations. --L.R. You are right. In past dec- ades the strain was such that older people did not come through surgery too well. This no longer is true. Operations far more drastic than eye surgery now are being done with pa- tients in their 90s and occasion- ally even older. Your father is an unusually vigorous man, obviously. Even if he were frail, I would still tell him to have such an operation. Age. no longer is of any great moment for a person in good health. doing' so. But it may well be that when Australia makes the change to decimal currency sone time in the year 1966, Britain will be do- ~*~ so at the same time. ' very since the Halsbury committee was appointed, there has been much speculation and not a little comment on what form the new currency should take. The most popular plan is that of making 10 shillings the major unit, with one shilling as a tenth, and with a new coin repens one - tenth of a ling. It is pointed out that. this. is roughly what Australia proposes to do. It is also exactly what South Africa did with success two years ago. There has also been some dis- cussion of the names to be used for the new coinage. One sug- gested name for the new Bri- tish 10 shilling unit is a Royal, with a Noble as a second place choice. Under this system, 110 pennies would make up a Royal, and each penny would have a value of about 1.25 of the pre- sent penny. BANKER'S VIEW In the City of London, how- ever,. bankers and financiers would prefer to retain the pre- sent pound as the unit, since it is an important international sym- bol. They would break it down to 10 florins and 100 cents, mak- ing a cent in this case worth 2.4 of the present pennies. This unit might again be broken down into some smaller coins, but that is extremely doubtful. Whatever method is used, there is one thing certain. The changeover from sterling cur- rency to the decimal system is going to cost well over $500 mil- lion, because it involves chang- ing over accounting machines, coin boxes, cash registers, and the whole system of banking. But those who favor the change are convinced that this would be money well spent, and would justify itself in the long run.

OF WORDS Lovat Dickson's life has been built of words and around words. He started as an editor; he became a book publisher and became a director of the great publishing house of Mac- millans, the family business of Britain's prime minister, Har- old Macmillan. His account of his career makes a fascinating story, of triumph capping. s le, of interest even in early * and always lit by the warm human interest of the stories behind: the stories in the books which he published. There was, for instance, Cap- tain von Rintelcn, "'late of the German Imperial Navy", the famous German spy who wove his net so successfully in the United States. In the early years of the First World War, his task was to interfere with the flow of munitions which the Americans were selling to the European Allies. "Did you have any success?" asked Lovat Dickson. "Oh, immense," chuckled the py. And when Lovat Dickson pub- lished the spy's writings, they met with an immense success too. The book, Publisher's Busi- ness, "jumped to undreamt-of proportions,"" Perhaps fate ar- ranged a suitable curtain when at 7 a.m. on a winter's morning in 1946, a jobbing gardener, clutching a workman's ticket in his hand, was found dead on the platform of South Kensing- ton underground railway _ sta- READERS' VIEWS Dear Sir: I was saddened when I looked at the picture of a young Cana- dian of Polish extraction ac- cepting a flag which was not the flag of his country but rath- er a beloved reminder to a lot of adults of a. life long since past. Why must a Canadian boy belong to an organization with foreign trappings, foreign lan- guage and above all a foreign flag? : Is our country not divided enough without parents who have obviously prospered here trying to divide loyalties some more? I too have adopted Canada for my home and my children rarely hear me talk akput "The Old Country" though m¥land is a land of fierce pride anu glori- ous history. Their pride will be Canadian and their history will be the glorious saga of "The True North, Strong and Free." I hope and pray I will see the day when all our people will become one in a Canadian na- tion. Let our memory catch at the old ties but leave the future to our children, a Canadian future. When I see pictures like this, strange flags flying from our city hall flag pole and spe- cial national days proclaimed in our city, I wonder what is going to become of us. Perhaps if it continues, that great country south of our bor- der, which incidentally has only one emblem, "The Stars and Stripes,' won't find it too hard to persuade us to sink our iden- tity and to invite them to take over.

A reporter here these days gets asked one question, and it seems only the one ques. tion--who will win the elec- tion? And this reporter, at least, has a stock reply. "Really, I haven't a clue." Last fall I would have given odds that there was a good chance the government would be turned out, or at least that there would be minority gov- ernment, , I probably would have bet the same way as late as just a month ago. But then the situation changed radically. CAME TO LIFE A government which had been dawdling, and slowly, it seemed, getting nowhere, sud- denly came to life, In the last few weeks of the session it brought down a whole storm of legislation. Included were some very significant steps --medicare, minimum wages, portable pensions, a foundation plan for school as- sistance. A slow and plodding admin- istration turned overnight into an aggressive, driving govern. ment. And all considerations had to change with this. The Robarts government still isn't going to win any general election in a walk. The biggest difference prob- ably that the session made was that it showed the government had vigor and aggressiveness. The actual action at thie ses- sion probably won't have too much influence throughout the. province. Action in the house here does not tend to be. effectively com- municated to the voters. RECORD EFFECTIVE More important is the fact that there obviously is a spirited government ready. to go to the polls, And in addition a government which, thanks to the closing weeks of the git- tings, has an effective record to take to the hustings. -- * Against this there still are other major considerations. A main one is organization.
