Oshawa imes Published by Canadian Newspapers Limited © 86 King St. E., Oshawa, Ontario T. L, Wilson, Publisher THURSDAY, MAY 16, 1963-----PAGE 6 'Young Lives Are Saved By Local Instruction Tuesday's papers carried two news items that many people may have missed. From Stoney Creek came this report: "Two women and "a truck driver yesterday saved the life of a four-year-old boy who was submerged in a neighbor's back- yard swimming pool for close to 10 minutes . . . This is the second time that Mr. Billing has saved someone from drowning... The first rescue made "him do some thinking, he said, about how poorly - people are equipped to render first aid in an emergency. Following that, he joined the St. John Am- bulance Brigade." There was, too, this report from Timmins: "Pierre Marcotte, 19, and his sister Jocelyne, 18, put the mouth-to-mouth respiration lessons they learned from the St. John Ambulance Brigade to good use yes- terday -- they saved the life of their three-year-old sister, Anne Marie." A couple of weeks ago there was a similar report. A mother found her young son face down in his wading pool. She plucked him out of the pool and started to adminis- ter the mouth-mouth method of ar- tificial respiration which she had learned a year before at a St. John Ambulance save-a-life course Two hours of her time had given her the essential knowledge that saved her son's life. The need for artificial respira- tion won't wait for trained help to arrive; the few minutes, even seconds, that it takes to call a doctor can mean the difference be- tween a possible and an impossible situation; a life can ebb away be- cause no one on the spot knows how to give artifical respiration. The sensible precaution, particu- larly for parents, is to take the Holger-opportunity to learn both the Holger-Neilson and the mouth- to-mouth methods of artificial res- piration at a St. John Ambulance course. Imporiani Trade Meet The ministerial meeting of the General Agreement on Tariffs and Trade, now under way in Geneva, could set the stage for one of the most important trade and tariff negotiations since the inception of _ GATT. GATT is not merely a set of prin- ciples or standards. It is a trade agreement and therefore contrac- tual in nature. Canada was one of the founding members and today the terms of the General Agreement are applied by Canada to some seventy countries, including all of Canada's important trading part- ners in the free world. Signatories to the Agreement, known as con- tracting parties, together account for more than 80 per cent of world trade. The ministerial meeting was con- vened to consider a program for effective liberalization and expan- sion of trade. The ministers planned to concentrate on three broad as- pects of international trade: arran- gements for reduction or elimina- tion of tariffs and other barriers to trade; measures for improved access to markets for argricultural and other primary products; and measures for expanding the trade of the underdeveloped countries as a means of increasing their export income and boosting their economic development. They will lay the groundwork for negotiations on these subjects expected to take place in 1964, The background for the current meeting is provided by the new United States Trade Expansion Act, which provides the U.S. president with broad authority to reduce U.S. tariffs. The Pearson government has officially stated that it "warmly supports this important initiative which the U.S. has taken to secure the further reduction of barriers to trade throughout the world. The available scope for opening up the U.S. market is most impressive and clearly warrants a positive response from trading partners of the United States." As a trading nation -- and one which runs a deficit with the U.S. -- Canada is vitally concerned, Film Industry Changes As might be expected, the largest number of films from any one country, reviewed by the Ontario board of censors during the 12- month period ending March 31, came from the United States. But in total, other foreign films outnum- bered the American output -- and non-English films outnumbered those in which the English lan- guage was used. Here are the statistics: total films reviewed, 512; U.S. produc- tions, 202; films originating in English-speaking countries, 250; films from non-English lands, 162, of which 186 came from Italy, 52 from Germany, and 33 from Greece. As a matter of fact, Greece pro- duced almost as many films as Britain, which had only 47 on On- tario screens. The figures indicate the changes which have taken place in the social as well as the entertainment struc- ture of this country since the end of World War II. But that is not She Oshavwn Times T. L.

Silverthorne comments: "Stories which a few years ago we would most definitely call ques- tionable are not now found objec- tionable by the public at large. It is a well known fact that many films we banned some years ago, or cut quite drastically, are now shown on television without protest." He said the board finds that film audiences expect realistic inter- pretations of life as it is, and is handling submissions on that basis. It no longer places emphasis on cutting or banning of films, but relies on classifying them so that the public can know what the sub- ject matter is likely to cover. It will delete objectionable parts rather than ban the entire film, "as ban- ning any film only arouses contro- versy over the individual's freedom of choice and brings the film in question a publicity value it does not deserve." Whether the so-called realistic films are any better as art, enter- tainment or honest portrayal of life is another matter. Bible Thought I wish above all things that thou mayest prosper and be in health, even as thy soul prospereth. -- Iii. John 2. How would we feel if our bodies experienced the same degree of health as our souls? And this is love, that we walk after his commandments. -- II. John 6. Genuine love derives its meaning- fulness from divine sources. QUEEN'S PARK 'GUESS WHO?' Holiday Planners Have Information By DON O'HEARN TORONTO --A thought for this time of year--when holiday plans are being made. The department of travel and publicity has built up a really remarkable library of publica- tions. They are free for the asking --just by writing the depart- ment of travel and publicity, Province of Ontario, Parlia- ment Buildings, Toronto 5. YOUR HEALTH Whatever your particular rec- reation or interest it seems the department probably has a pub. lication for you. It's more than two. dozen booklets and pamphlets vary from Refreshing Ontario--Can- ada's Variety Vacationland ' to special publications for yachts- men, campers, flyers, skiiers, golfers etc. And for those historically in- pe f i t i Correct Breathing Rids Use Of Lungs By JOSEPH G. MOLNER, MD Dear Dr. Molner: I was told at the hospital that I need to learn to breathe correctly. The attendant said I stop breathing when I sleep, and otherwise have shallow breaths. Has anyone ever learned to breathe? I've tried and tried, and it tires me. ee anything be done?--MRS. Of course you ee stop breathing when you sleep. All our body processes (except snoring!) tend to: quiet down when we sleep. Heart action, metabolism, biood pressure, temperature--all make use the chance to rest. Both the rate and depth of your breathing will depend, of course, on whether you have some lung disorder, such as emphysema--a loss of elasticity in the lungs. You exert muscular tension to inhale. You exhale mainly by relaxing and letting the lungs push the old air out. The READERS' VIEWS THANKS Dear Sir: : Thank you for the impartial coverage given our Assembly this past weekend. We feel that it contributed greatly to the suc- cess of our gathering. Our public meeting was af- fected the most. The attendance figure was 477 therefore your contribution helped Oshawa and district residents to gain the answer to the very important question "Who Will Win The Struggle For World Su- premacy?"' TREVOR DOWN Publicity Servant, Circuit O-14B, Jehovah's Witnesses Whitby PARADE VIEW Dear. Sir: Thanks to the inventors of television, from now on when special parades are coming, I will stay at home and watch it on television (else do without, as the case may be). I hardly saw any of the Satur- @ay parade as teen-agers and grown-ups crowded out in front, in the down-town sections. And most of them were tall people. Does anyone know who should be allowed to the front? Chil- dren and their parents, elderly people who in most cases are less 'than 64 inches tall, people with cameras who would like to take various pictures of the parades; or the average 70-inch tall young people of today? MARION FLEWWELLING Oshawa amount you can take in with the next breath depends on how much stale air has been ex- pelled. Hence with emphysema (and this is true of some sufferers of asthma, because many of them develop emphysema, too) it is important to use the lungs to the best effect possible under the circumstances. Yes, you can learn to breathe more correctly. Many already have done so, Even while awake, many of us fall into the habit of doing much of our breathing with the stomach muscles, and chest movement is reduced. A conscious effort. to use your chest muscles will make fuller use of your lung capacity. Like any other muscular activ- ity, it gets easier after you've kept doing it for a time. You can't do this consciously while you are asleep, and it is to be expected that your breath- ing will be shallower, Do your best while you are awake. Then let things take care of themselves while you sleep. clined there's Historic Ontario --"Old Upper Canada'"'. As a taxpayer you pay for these. anyway, you know. So there is no call to be shy about writing for them. With certain pride the Liber- als have let word get out that they expect a number of pro- fessors to be candidates in the next election. Well! It seems that perhaps sym- pathy should be extended. Professors can be wonderful people, numbers of them have intelligence, and they make an essential contribution, like food and sin we can't get along with- out them. But in the experience of the writer at least, they make about the worst - practical politicians you could hope to find. LONG DOCUMENT: We have been singularly free of them here in the Legislature. From time to time the CCF ran various professors through- out the province, and they were distinguished by a total lack of success at the polls. And the Liberals have had various flirtations with them, though they have not put them forward as candidates. The most notable experience was in 1955 when then leader Farquhar Oliver recruited Pro- fessor Marcus Long of the Uni- versity of Toronto to advise him and to draft and write his elec- tion platform for him. Mr. Oliver was very proud of the association. But the result- ing platform was probably the most ineffective political docu- men in all Canadian history. By the nature of their calling professors are ivory tower people. The application of the fruit of their efforts fs left to another breed. They have a place in govern- ment--as advisers on their spe- cialties. But as "representa- tives" of the people they really are only suited to represent other professors. TAKE SAND TO DESERT LEIGHTON BUZZARD, Eng- land (CP)--A British firm is exporting sand--to Egypt. A spokesman for the sand .com- pany explained that it is "very special sand" to be used in the egg structure of the Aswan am, PPPOE "OTTAWA REPORT FDP GPO GPO OO British Delighted By Pearson Visit By PATRICK NICHOLSON LONDON ENGLAND -- This capital is once more warmed by a heartening sunshine after its worst winter in three cen- turies. But added to its natural cheer of multi-colored spring is a new well-spring of hope about Canada, after what most Brit- «sh leaders now see in retro- spect as a "winter of discon- tent" which mounted over the past six years. The Right Hon. Lester Bow- les Pearson seemed to shed the exhaustion of his election cam- paign and the worries of his minority position when his RCAF Yukon plane landed him at London airport. His well- known grin shone on Britain from every newspaper, and won for him a new nickname: "Smiler Mike just beams on Britain', shouted one headline --and "'Smiler" he became. Just 24 hours later, he also became "The Right Honorable", through the honored by ap- pointment to the Privy Council of the United Kingdom--as this column had predicted the pre- vious day. The record of Mr. Pearson's discussions here showed that no firm decisions were ex- pected, none were achieved; in fact none could be achieved. But the informal agenda-less talks are now considered here to have been a resounding suc- cess, And Britain is delighted that the first internationa] act of the new Prime Minister of Canada was to come here to rebuild the old links of trust- worthy reliance between the two countries. Mr. Pearson had the great advantage of coming to Britain as an old friend. When he ar- rived at Canada House to hold his farewell press conference, he walked into the building where he had worked through those friendship-building days of the blitz. And London did not overlook the significant fact that he' was accompanied by Norman Robertson, now deputy minister for external affairs, who was a popular and suc- cessful Canadian high commis- sioner here in the post - war years. Britain is passing through some anxious days. The col- lapse of her hopes for early en- try into the common market, and anxiety about her nuclear role in NATO pose the most BY-GONE DAYS ' 30 YEARS AGO Oshawa Rotarians presented Dr. Grant Bird with an illum- inated address in honor of his election as District Governor of Rotary International. The Oshawa Welfare Hostel was closed for the summer months. Detective - Sergeant Norman McGee, provincial checker champion and nofed chess play- er, added to his laurels by win- ning a euchre championship tournament held in St. Greg- ory's Parish Hall. A birthday party was held in St. George's Parish Hall in honor of the 10th anniversary of the opening of St. George's Church. Rev. Canon de Pencier presided over the program of entertainment in which all of the church organizations were represented. The Corporation of the City of Oshawa and the Municipality of East Whitby made an agree- ment whereby service of the Oshawa Fire Department would be available in the township. Bowmanville Businessmen's Association and Whitby Cham- ber of Commerce joined Osh- awa Chamber of C ommerce to hold 'Blossom Week" while apple trees were in bloom. Mrs. R. S. McLaughlin, presi- dent of the Home and School Federation, was guest speaker at a luncheon held for the Toronto Home and School Coun- cil. MIMICS PERFECTLY Researchers at Ohio State University say the mockingvird imitates other birds so expertly only electronic analysis can de- tect the difference. The pupils of King Street Public School showed great in- terest in a bear cub which had been captured by Blake Bond while he and Mrs. Bond and family were on a fishing trip in the Muskoka district. Mrs. Churchill Mann, young- est daughter of Col. R. S. Mc. Laughiin, won first in the poio ponies class with Cheyenne, at the 33rd annual Toronto Horse Show held at the Hunt Club. Mrs. Eric Phillips competed also with Sharavogue. Park. wood Stables won six trophies at the show. Hospital Sunday was observed by all city churches. The Osh- awa General Hospital had serv- ed the comunity for 23 years. W. G. Corben was re-elected president of the Oshawa Ten. nis League. TODAY IN HISTORY By THE CANADIAN PRESS May 61, 1963... An Imperial order-in-coun- cil was passed 92 years ago today -- in 1871 -- authoriz- ing the admission of British Columbia to the Dominion of Canada. Vancouver Is- jand had been annexed to the colony of British Colum- bia in 1866 but it became clear that a wider union was necessary to save the united colony from economic disas- ter. Negotiations for union with Canada were pushed and the union became effec- tive in July, 1871. 1770 -- Marie Antoinette married Louis XVI. 1875 -- An earthquake in Venezuela and Colombia killed an estimated 16,000 7 The!

Bra CANADA A PRODIGAL? Talking to Britons and Cana- dians here, a sorry picture of Canada emerges. Of course the traditionally reserved his usual well-mannered sae ; ness, but one can for his understatement, the mood about Canada was fairly summed up in a prom inent newspaper controlled by the Canadian publisher Thomson; this referred to quarrels and tension that often unhappily characterized Can- ada's relations with Britain and her other @Jlies during the six years of Mr. Diefenbaker's Con- servative rule." Specifically, what were the complaints, I asked one very prominent figure here. I was stubbed by the catalogue. The exit of South Africa from the Commonwealth; the failure to take any steps to offer Britain fairness in our mutual balance of trade; the scaring away of British investment capital . by. the Coyne affair; the contrast between Canada's economic stagnation and other Western nations' growth; the return flow of disgruntled immigrants; the violent opposition to Britain's entry into the common market; - Non-cooperation in defence and in armaments within the NATO framework. These were just the chief criticisms. . Has Canada been something of a prodigal son of the Come monwealth during recent years? That is the unfortunate im- pression created--in some res pects wrongly or through fail- ure in communications. ' But the post-Pearson mood in this sunprisingly sun-drenched capital as I write is that Can- ada and Britain will now to- gether help to set a new pat- tern for togetherness which could establish a new trend to emery in the Western world.
