--- Bhe Oshawa Fines Published by Canadian Newspapers Limited 86 King St. E., Oshawa, Ontario T, L. Wilson, Publisher MONDAY, AUGUST 19, 1963-----PAGE 6 - Robarts Calls Election Premier John Robarts goes into the September general election in a much stronger position than might have been expected a year ago. He still carries some big dis- advantages, but few impartial poli- tical observers are prepared to predict at this point that the Con- servatives will lose power. There is a feeling that they may lose some seats, but that a party defeat would be an upset. A year ago things did not look nearly so promising for Mr. Robarts. Liberal leader Wintermeyer ap- peared to have gained both 'sta- ture and support as a result of his vigorous campaigning in and out of the Legislature. There had been Conservative defeats in by-elections. Mr, Robarts had taken over from Mr. Frost so quietly that the latter still seemed to be the dominating figure in the party, the real power. And Mr. Robarts had barely started the delicate task of remaking the Conservative 'image'. During the winter and spring", Mr. Robarts emerged from the ._In Improved Situation Frost shadow. Moving with a great deal of political skill, he began in- jecting youth into his cabinet and he and his colleagues proceeded to put before the Legislature a subs- tantial body of legislation which could be used to knock great holes in the Liberal and New Democratic platforms. Now he will be able to campaign effectively as the leader of a new team with a whole set of - fresh new ideas for the betterment of the province. Some of the ideas may not appear as fresh or pro- gressive after close scrutiny, but there is no denying their potency in an election campaign. Mr. Robarts must still bear the burden of the long Conservative period in power, When one party wins election after election,it begius to get fat, complacent and arrogant, It happened to the federal Liberals, and there have been many signs over the past few years what it has been happening to the provincial Conservatives. But the process does not seem to have gone far enough to make Mr. Robarts an underdog in September. Sir Laurence Annoyed Good for Sir Laurence! A sneaky little report appeared early this week, suggesting that Sir Laurence Olivier might support the campaign to open Shakespeare's tomb at Stratford-on-Avon. Ad- vocates of the opening contend it might prove whether Shakespeare wrote the plays credited to him or whether they were the work of Marlowe, Bacon or someone else, as some literary screwballs believe. The noted Shakespearean actor and director of the British National Theatre blew his magnificent stack. The move to open Shakespeare's grave, he announced in his best dramatic tones, in a "clod-hopping, jack-booted outrage." To which we aay, Amen, Sir Laurence also authorized this statement, on his behalf: "His belief is profound that Shakespeare wrote the plays him- self. He considers that doubts about this are prompted by lack of faith in the possibility of genius in the Appeal For Mao Tse-Tung, China's answer to Nikita Khrushchev, has said he'd like to see people of all colors unite against American imperialism, and support the U.S. Negroes "in their fight against racial discrimination". The Russians, feuding bitterly with their Chinese Communist cousins, commented coldly that Mao was making a blatant plea for a race war, the coloreds against the whites, which would be led by the Chinese -- and which could only bring disaster to Communism and to the world. Western commentators are inclined to agree with the Russians. The Chinese Communist boss ob- viously sees an opportunity to further several of his aims by pro- moting racial antagonism at this time. He wants to make Peking the ideological centre of the Com- munist world; he wants Russian in- fluence removed from Asia and The Oshawa Times T. t. WILSON, Publisher Cc.

A mite incoherent, perhaps, but the meaning is still clear. The grave-opening idea was in- spired by the forthcoming April 28 of next year--celebration by the English-speaking world -- and a good few other parts as well -- of the 400th anniversary of the birth of William Shakespeare. There has been enough scholarly research to refute the champions of Marlowe, Bacon and other pre- tenders, but the current ghouls ere probably more interested in notor- iety than in scholarship. Britain's special Shakespeare stamp, incidentally, will not carry the Bard's portrait -- portraiture is reserved for royalty. But at least one other country will honor Shakespeare by carrying a likeness on its stamps. That country will be Hungary. Race War Africa, to be replaced by -his own; he would dearly love to see Khrush- chevy deposed; and he wants the United States debased, Superficially, conditions seem to favor his racial propaganda. The Far East is in a turmoil. Newly independent African nations are talking about military action against South Africa and Portugu- ese colonies in Africa. The dark- skinned peons of Latin America seem ripe for Castro-type leader- ship. The Negroes in the United States are staging a militant cam- paign to achieve equality. But the Chinese have already blotted their copybook. They have antagonized India, and India's friends. The American Negroes are militant, but except for the Com- munist or fanatic minority, they do not seek violent revolution. The Castro surge in Latin America seems to be fading, as the bearded one fails to make good on his pro- mises. And the Africans have in- dicated they do not want to become satellites of any other nation of whatever color. Still, racial animosities make a fertile ground for propaganda. The Chinese play cannot be ignored. Bible Thought As we have therefore opportunity, let us do good unto all men. -- Galatians 6:10. The hallmark of the "Christian" spirit is charity towards all. No one would argue that this is "natural." It goes against nature because it is only of Christ. REPORT FROM U.K. Preserve Remains Of Roman Vessel By M. McINTYRE HOOD Special London (Eng.) Correspondent to The Oshawa Times LONDON -- The hulk of an oid Roman ship, discovered deep in the mud on the bank of the Thames at Blackfriars, is to be preserved and find a place for posterity in the Guildhall Museum, This unusual vessel, with tim- bers 25. feet long, was disclosed to view while contractors were éxcavating for a wall to be con- structed for a $10,500,000 under- pass scheme at the Blackfriars Bridge. It was immediately YOUR HEALTH brought to the attention of ar- chaeological authorities, Through the intervention and good offices of the Lord Mayor of London, the hulk of the ship will be raised gently from its ancient. resting-place in the Thames mud-bank, and recon- structed in the Guildhall Mu- scum. There it will be housed as one of the priceless relics of the days of the Roman occupa- tion of Britain. TIGHT SCHEDULE The discovery of the old ship was brought to the attention of Norman Cook, keeper of the Guildhall Museum, As the -con- tractors were on a tight time Tension Can Cause Nervous Reflexes 'By JOSEPH G. MOLNER, MD Dear Dr. Molner: Is there such a thing as a nervous siom- ach? When I arise in the morn- ing I am fine but in about an hour I begin to get a feeling of nausea. I have been checked for gall stones, ulcers and other things, and all tests are negative. Is there some treatment other than just taking tranquilizers or something for the nerves? I have been to several doc- tors.--MRS, C. G. Nervous, tension-wrought peo- ple react in various ways. Some have headaches, some have up- set stomachs, some break out with hives, some sweat, some get a backache (from muscular tension), some eat too much, some develop odd breathing, and the list could go on and on. With a nervous stomach, it isn't the stomach that's nervous, It's you! There are physical causes for every solitary one of the ner- vous reflexes that I've men- tioned. But when careful tests elimininate p hy sical causes, what's left? Tension. Or, as we cali it, a psychosomatic disor- der. If your stomach is all right until after you get up in the morning, and there are no ul- cers, gall stones, detectable gas- tritis and so on, but you are tense, izritable, worried, appre- hensive or what-have-you, it's rather good evidence that "nerves" are the cause. Your reference to "tranquil- izvers or something for the nerves" conveys to me the idea that one (or maybe all!) of the doctors you have been consult- ing have come to this conclu- sion, Are you too heavy? Do you eat too much? That alone can upset some stomachs, and many people eat too much because they let their nerves take charge. Are you mad at your husband? On the outs with your neighbors? Do children upset you? Do people "pick on you"? Do you feel left out of things? Are you bored? This deesn't scratch the sur- face of the list of signs that zo along with nervous tension. But if any of these fits, I'd suspect that finding an answer to your tensions might lead to a happy life. Your stomach will take care of itself! Quit running from one doctor to another. Choose any food one and siay with him. Tran- quilizers may help, if you don't expect them to do too much. Sometimes, and perhaps often, your "treatment" may be mostly conversation with your doctor, But take it seriously. Every emotional trouble you are taught to recognize will be a step forward. A few steps for- ward, and you'll be able to see that you aré making progress. Dear Dr. Molner: Does plas- tic anemia have anything to do with leukemia? I have heard different versions --MRS, K. Strictly speaking, no. Aplas- tic anemia means that the for- mation of blood cells has been depressed, usually due to some toxic agent The different versions you have heard are probably quite understandable, though. For ex- ample, it has been reported that poisons such as benzol can cause a blood condition resem- bling (but not related to) leu- kemia. ; schedule with the underpass project, it was not believed it would be possible to salvage it in the time available. For a week, Mr, Cook car- ried on the work of recording the wreck in diagrams and photographs, and of salvaging many relics, including pottery mueces, which were found in it. It was then decided to make an effort to bring up the hulk by means of a mechanical grab. But there were grave fears that the use of the grab on the an- cient timbers of the ship would cause them to fall to pieces. At this juncture,. Sir Ralph © Perring, took a hand in the mat- ter. He went to visit the wreck, which had been uncovered at the bottom of a 40-feet deep shaft sunk on the bank of the river, The Lord Mayor at once re ecognized the historic and arch- aeological value of the discov- ery, and had a talk with the contractors, As a result of his intervention, the contractors very generously agreed to delay their work long enough to en- able the hulk of the ship to be removed in pieces by hand work, so that all of it could be salvaged, and the pieces recon- structed inside the Guildhall museum, "The contractors," said Mr. Cook, "have been extremely generous. The Lord Mayor has also asked us to salvage every- thing that it is possible to re. trieve." WILL COST $60,000 It is estimated that the cost of delaying the building work will be about $6000 a day. The discovery held up work by the Demolition and Construction Company for seven days and the delicate recovery operation was estimated to take another 10 days. So the extra time al- lowed will cost the contractors an estimated $60,000. T#> decision to allow time for the recovery of the ship was made oniy after the most searching examination by Peter Marsden, excavations assistant at the Guildhall Museum, who is convinced of the authenticity of the discovery. When the hulk is reconstructed in the museum, it will be a valuable addition to the many relics of the days of the Romans in Britain now housed there. BY-GONE DAYS 15 YEARS AGO Tenders were called for the construction of a new Bell Tele- phone building at corner of Bond and Victoria streets to house Oshawa dial equipment. Over 200 district farmers took part in raising the framework for the new barn on the farm of T. C. Glaspell, RR 2, Osh- awa. R. Cecil Bint, President of the Laymen's Association of the Bay of Quinte Conference, was chosen a delegate to th General Council of the United Church of Canada held in Van- couver, The outstanding student at the OCVI Upper Schoo! examina- tions was James Lavis, who obtained first class honors in Nl of his 12 subjects. Richard Donevan, Samual Rubenzahl and Gertrude White were also outstanding pupils Thompson's Drug Store,' lo- cated at 10 Simcoe street south for aver 30 years, was_ taken over by another firm when its owner, F. W. Thompson, an- nounced his retirement Three members of the Osh- awa Post Office were present- ed with long service badzes. Postmaster Norman J. Moran had' 34. years service, C. A, Wells with 28 years and A. E. Twaites 25 years. Two Oshawa men, H, Reed and L. Oke, were named direc- tors of the Allied Florists and Growers' Association at a con- vention in the Ontario Agricul- tural College, Guelph. Oshawa district farmers re- ported bumper fall wheat crops. Mrs. Daniel Sargeant was hon. ored at a family picnic at Lake- view Park on her 90th birthday. Edouard Bartlett, well-known Oshawa violinist and. supervisor of music at Timmins High School, and Reginald G. Geen, organist, were chosen to repre- sent Ontario at the Canadian Federation of Music Teachers' convention at Banff. The Oshawa Rotary Club held its annual Golf Day at the Osh- awa Golf Club. Following lunch- eon, presided over by President John G. Geikie, the members and their visitors adjoined to the first tee where Jack Rob- erts, club professional, demon- strated a number of trick shots. One of the most beautiful lily ponds in this district was in the garden of R. E. Wilson, Burk Street. The pond was stocked with Gloriosa, Gonnere, Com- anche and Rlue Beauty lilies in addition to the very rare Egyp- tian Lotus, Sacred Lily of Egypt. Facets Of Soviet Life Give Confused Picture MOSCOW (CP)--A_ traveller plunges behind the Iron Curtain wondering why the Soviets are like that and comes back rhap- sodizing about the Russian soul. That's what has happened in a@ month-long visit starting with Moscow's broad boulevards and ending with the leafy parks of Kiev, final memory of many -- emigrating to Can- ada. Between times, strengthening the tourist's impression of basic human worth, came Samar. kand, Bukhara and tawny Tash- kent, Here in scorching central Asia emerges a new and be- wildering segment of the Soviet empire; here European techni- ques roll back Uzbek mud huts and more than 30 nationalities, strayed off the set of some Charlie Chan movie, mingle in @ racial cocktail whose conse- quences are incalculable, And finally lighthearted Len- ingrad with its block-long build. ings and Western affinities, not really seeming a Soviet city at all, viewing the cold war with aplomb. OPEN SOUL Everywhere, you are re- minded that making even the smallest generalization about the Soviet Union is a frighten- ing responsibility, For the coun- try is unbelievably vast, larger than Canada and mainiand China put together, as immense as all the Commonwealth, Playing safe, therefore, you cling to a single lifeline in a sea of doubt, Whatever else is mis- leading, surely these warm- hearted Slavs. are the real thing, as friendly and unspoiled as every chance encounter af- firms, as ultimately compelling as old Moscow hands insist they are. In S@timental moments, Rus. sians speak shyly of their "'or- krytaya dusha,"' or open soul. A personal sample came when a burly Armenian engineer with black bushy moustache and dancing eyes, scraping acquain- tance on the Kiev-Moscow train, regaled me with caviar, tall bottles of cognac taken with lemon and a heaping bow! of Georgian strawberries. OTTAWA REPORT He wouldn't accept a ruble in return, Z Possibly this is a central dil- emma, the contrast between the open soul and the closed society, between human material and governmental machine; the peo- ple so intense in personal rela. tionships, so glacial in foreign affairs. OPENLY EMOTIONAL Soon the Western mind tosses in torment. On one side are whispers about strict security, radio beams that can pick up conver- sations in most private set- ting, mysterious wrong num- bers, artificial noise machines designed to thwart electronic eavesdropping, And again there are the peo- ple so alive, under that slug- gish Slav exterior, that' they will explode in a pandemonium of emotion as an elderly baller- ina makes her final appearance, so tender - hearted hg! will burst into tears at the sight of an African baby cradled in a white woman's arms, Are Western _ suspicions groundless, or are you falling for the socialist soft sell? Is the young party worker, who talks like a brush sales- man about working for the col- lective good, representative of the new Soviet man, or js it just a convenient cover story? Is it just coincidence when your riew friend Svetlana, after gratefully accepting an extra opera ticket, calls to say she won't be able to go with you after all because her mother is sick? Leaving aside such suspicions, and recognizing the realities of Berlin and disarmament. will remain as long as East and West continue to argue from different premises, an. impres- sion of common humanity is what most visitors carry away from Moscow, WEARY OF WAR The Soviets are as weary of war as any people in the world, and as full of goodwill as the most outgoing of Americans, But make no mistake, Western voices warn -- Nikita Khrush- Martin Gains Best Government Office By PATRICK NICHOLSON OTTAWA--Would you sooner be prime minister of Canada or secretary of state for external affairs? If you want the best govern- ment office in Ottawa, you would pick the second job. When Canada was a baby in the early days of Confederation, our Parliament and our govern- ment in Ottawa: were concen- trated in the cluster of three -- crowning Parliament inl. The Centre Block housed the Senate and the Commons, while the East Block and the West Block housed the departments of government and their: staffs of civil servants. Now, 96 yéars Tater, the swollen staff of bur- eaucrats is scattered, some near but many far, into many and newer office buildings. All except the Privy Council and the department of external af- fairs. That is why the prime min- ister and the secretary of state for external affairs are the only two ministers still accommo- dated in those pre-confederation grey stone Gothic buildings on Parliament Hill And of all the offices in the East Block, I prefer the corner office on the second floor used by 'our "foreign minister." SOUVENIRS GALORE Tt is a big room, 30 feet square and with high ceilings. It has ample windows on two sides. Facing west, one can look over the green lawns of Parliament Hill, perhaps watch. ing the entranced crowd of tour- ists spellbound by the precision marching of Canadian soldiers as, to the music of bagpipe and trumpet and drum, they change the guard every summer morn. ing. As a backdrop there is the impressive Parliament Building with its grace'ul Peace Tower. Or looking south, the minister can see the bustle of bus and car and pedestrian in busy Confederation Square, passing often without a thought our significant Canadian War Memorial, On the high turquoise-painted walls, our present foreign min- ister, Hon. Paul Martin, has had Canadian oil paintings hung, There is that green treed landscape Moose Country, painted by his namesake, T. T. Mower Martin, R.C.A. There is that white snowscape dotted with buffalo. Most recent, there is a charming pink and blue photograph of the Grande Cou- lee Dam, presented to Mr, Mar- tin during his recent tour of the Columbia River system. More personal, I noted a peaked white ~ crowned nauti- cal captain's cap, emblazoned in golden letters Kelowna Re- gatta--which the minister had visited on the same recent west- ern trip. Then on a table I saw an impressive ink pot and pen- stand which had been presented to him on Sept. 14, 1955, when, as minister of health and wel- fare, he had opened the Hotel Dieu Hospital in Cornwall, Ont. Beside it lay a magnificent ma- lacea cane with a golden handie engraved to commemorate its presentation by Tunku Abdul Razah, deputy prime minister of Malaya. FINE HAPPY FAMILY Mr. Martin is blessed with a happy family, In his office is a photograph of himself with his gay wife Nell, and their two fine children, Paul and Mary- Ann, There are photos of his parents, Philip Martin and Marie Chouinard, taken about the time the family lived :in Pembroke, Ont., and Paul went to school there. On his immense eight-foot- long glass « topped desk lie al- ways several of those menacing correspondence books, contain- ing letters awaiting signature. I noted there a book--Mr. Mar- tin is a voracious reader--en- titled Relentless Nations--with foreword by Lester B, Pearson. And the ash-tray containing ci- gar ash; Mr. Martin enjoys an occasional cigar and, as you and I might he smokes a 10. center. A busy minister has a busy of- fice; h e looks busy, and to ac- commodate his many meetings, large or small, there are two red leather - covered settees beside the fireplace and a dozen other chairs scattered around the office. Here history has been made for 96 years; it's an impres- sive office--and Hon, Paul Mar- tin is filling it impressively. QUEEN'S PARK chev is out to beat as W he can, However genial the people, this is still the regime of the restricted spirit, There is no mechanism for gradual change, hardly any tolerated dissent; one jerk of the reins evokes re- membered terror, One evening, as rain touched the towers of the Kremlin across the way, I stood at the corner of Gorky Street and Karl Marx Avenue, with a plaque of Lenin behind me, and answered rapid-fire questions from pass- ersby surging six deep around me. ' There was blazing zeal to know about the West. With a dark - skinned Kenyan as inter. reter, we ranged over East- est problems, colonialism, ra- cialism in the southern United States, Soviet achievements in space, unemployment in North America, EAGER TO LEARN When I asked what was thought of Canada, a bespec- tacled student answered in @ flash: "I know our weather is like urs, that you have many krainians and that you are somehow different from Amer. icans, I like what I know and T want to know more." There wasn't a policeman in sight, and we were hard by Red Square, So far has the Soviet advanced in 10 years, People nodded quietly when I said we couldn't have talked so freely five years ago, How to sum up? Tentatively, perhaps, the wishful Westerner may decide that Russia is a neurotic giant, a colossus con- ditioned by past experiences into extreme secretiveness and suspicion, fearful and complex- ridden, dragging behind it an outdated ideology; perhaps some day it may learn to live in comfort with a far-from-per- fect West. TODAY IN HISTORY By THE CANADIAN PRESS Aug. 19, 1963 ... Canadians paid a heavy toll 21 years ago today--in 1942--wher units of the 2nd Division raided the French town of Dieppe during the Second World War. Of the nearly 5,000 men who crossed the English Chan- nel, 3,369 were killed, wounded cr captured, The main body of attackers were stalled on the beaches and only a handful of troops managed to break into the town Dospite the great loss, the attack was regarded by many military strategists as a valuable lesson for later seaborne landings. 1871-Pioneer aviator Or ville Wright was born. 1809--Accommodation, the first Canadian steamship, was launched at- Montreal. PARAGRAPHICAL WISDOM W you read to a small boy these days the nursery rhyme about the cow jumping over the moon, he asks: "How could a cow have that much thrust?" Tt is a strange anomaly for Chinese to be strongly implying that Russians are yellow. A moralist says "matrimony" is a serious word. We thought it was a sentence, Tt is doubted that the overall incidence of insanity is lowered by hobbies, as so many hobby- ists drive others nuts talking about their hobbies. Fifty years ago a woman looked her age ali the time, in- stead of, as now, only before breakfast. To size up a man, add what his mother thinks of him te what his mother-in-law thinks, and divide by two. Cathcart Victim Of Regime Change By DON O'HEARN TORONTO--One of the haz- ards of politics is potential in- gratitude. A certain amount of ruthiess- ness is accepted as necessary in all political leaders, If the chips are down they can't afford to let friendships or respect interfere with success. There has been considerable comment, and a number of al- legations, about the sudden res- ignation of Travel and Public- ity Minister Bryan Cathcart. But Mr. Cathcart has princl- pally been a victim of times and the necessities of pol- ities, Mr. Cathcart, a loyal party man, says he is retiring. be- cause of age and the desire to enjoy some of the better things in life. Mr. Cathcart is 66, it is true. But he is probably the young- est 66 that these walls--or most others--have ever seen. If he really wants to retire, because of age or for any other reason, then the writer knows nothing at all about men. For the travel minister is a man who thoroughly enjoys pol- itics, has not much interest in anything else, and still has tremendous vigor. No, Mr. Cathcart is retiring because of the life and times of politics, and the fact that Ontario has a new leader and a new government, ® Since Premier Robarts took ever two years ago it has been necessary for him to build a new party image. This had to be an image of youth. And Mr. Cathcart follows Charles Daley, W. A. Goodfel. low W. M. Nickle and others into the wilderness. In his case, however, he prob- ably wanted to go less than the others did. One can't blame Mr, Robarts fer wanting to constitute his ewn government. His ways naturally are not the ways of Leslie Frost. He is a@ man from a different day with different ways. NEW MEN Anii the ways of the men who grew up in government with Mr, Frost will not all fit in with his own. Tt is too bad, however, that we do not have some means of giving recognition to men who have given long and loyal pub- lic service and then through new conditions are dropped--or drop out. Bryan Cathcart. has given long and loyal service here. He has been dedicated to the pub. lic interest And personally we would like to see his retirement: marked by more than a few press no tices and a controversy. He de- serves more.
