{2 THE OSHAWA TIMES, Thursdey, January 16, 1964 OD EVENING -- By JACKGEARIN -- GO AND CHRISTINE IN SOUTH AFRICA Do these wintry blasts de- press your spirit? If so, just think of T. D. "Tommy" Thomas and his wife, Christine, the former mayor of Oshawa. They're basking in a sub- tropical paradise these days, in Durban, South Africa, to be exact - according to J, C, Pratt of 828 Glenforest, to whom they wrote this week, they're enjoying it very much ("Durham is an ex- quisitely beautiful City, with A warm sunshine and hospital- ity and plenty of tourists," they write.) é The Thomases bob sche- duled to depart n to- T.

They left Montreal last November 26 and arrived in Dur- ban January 9. F . rs f NDP's OPEN RIDING MEMBERSHIP, FUND DRIVE NOTES FROM THE HUSTINGS; The New Democratic Party in Ontario (Federal) Riding will launch a membership and fund-reising drive in February. Membership Secretary Stan Ibbott expleined & this way today: "Fees paid will be used for a subsoription to The Demo- erat, the Party's Provincial monthly and to help finance ac- tion and organization at Federal, Provincial and riding levels." He said "individual" donations would be sought, The membership drive would also embrace ex-members who have been delinquent in attendance. Thbott, who estimated the membership of the Federal nding party at more than 400 currently, scoffed at a sugges- tion that Ontario Riding NDP's were interested in any politi- cal merger with the Liberals. "We have discussed this proposal.at the executive level," * he said this week, "and I can assure you that it received no eupport whatsoever -- as far as we're concerned it's a dead issue." Had the NDP in Ontario Riding (Federal) given any serious thought to a proposal by Douglas Fisher, MP, Port Arthur, made early in 1963 during a speech here, that it at- tempt to attract more white-collar workers into its ranks? "We think the suggestion is a good one and we have given it considerable thought," said Mr. Ibbott who pointed out: "Don't forget, we have been successful in recruiting some fine 'white collar' types of late, but we would welcome far more members from this particular group." Mr, Fisher said 'white collar' workers were "'invatuable" te him in his successful riding campaigns because they work- ed hard and served as "peacemakers" between some inner- ' party factions who did not always see eye to eye. KINGSTON CAUCUS MEETS CAN BE ROUGH Oshawa City Couneil's recent caucus meeting (to select gtending committees, etc.) was an orderly, routine affair conducted strictly along Marquess of Queensbury lines with all business expedited in about two-and-e-half hours. There was no name-calling, heated oratory, threats in Oshawa. There was down Kingston way. The Limestone City's Council actually opened its "secret"' caucus to the public January 10, their second caucus of the | new year. : The first was held Jan. § when committee chairmen were selected and members recommended for five standing TORONTO (CP) -- The On- tario government was both cri- ticized and praised for its throne speech opening the provincial legislature session Wednesday, Farquhar Oliver, Liberal House leader, and Donald C, MacDonald, leader of the New Democratic Party, both issued statements saying the speech was inadequate. Proposals dealing with uni- versity affairs were welcomed b Dr, Claude Bissell, president the University of Toronto, and with some reservations by Rey, BE, Carlisle LeBel, vice-chancel: lor and renrent of the Univer: sity of Wi r, 'he establishment of a depart ment of university affairs and of a Crown corporation to \elp universities finance development programs were announced by the government, Throne Speech Too Limp Say Opposition Leaders must 'be examined carefully to see if it raises the prospect of unwarranted intervention into the traditionally. autonomous op> eration of universities, he said, "The desperately needed streamlining and consolidation of our horse-and-buggy munici- pal legistation still lies away off in the future."' The NDP leader said the gov- lernment's proposal for coping with Ontario's current water shortage stresses the efforts needed to meet agricultural re- quirements but ignores the shortage of water as a limita tion on development of industry in southern Ontario citles.

Some wanted the press in, A vote was called at the second meet for exclusion of the Press, but lost out by a narrow margin--dissidents at the second meet failed to upset caucus recommendations from ~ the first caucus, Tempers flared when Cairman Freeman Hawkey asked Alderman Walter N. Smith to "'apologize and . resign from Council."" With a flush of anger, Alderman Smith Jumped to his feet and retorted: "When I resign I will follow through and not be two-faced and have my resignation with- drawn". This prompted Alderman George Webb to invite Al- derman Smith out in the hall to call him "two faced". A motion to adjourn was quickly put to the vote, ending pro- ' ceedings in the Council chamber. It never gets this way in Oshawa's Council Chamber, does it? * LAKE VISTA RATEPAYERS TO MEET SUNDAY : The Lake Vista Ratepayers Association has lined up a . special speaker for their meeting next Sunday night (at 7:30 . pam.) in St. Phillip's Church. Hg is Kevin Cahill, appointed by City Council last Octe- * ber to the newly-created post of Director of Operations. . Mr. Cahill is responsible for the administration and co-ordination activities of the Works Department, Engi- neering and Parks and Property, He is also author of the Cahill Report on the Board of Works Yard ad- ministration currently under study by Council. He was an employee of the City of Dub- lin (Ireland) for 20 years administering building codes and housing regulations. He also served from late 1957 to early 1959 as resident en- gineer for the Canadian Car Company (Montreal) on a | $2,000,000 project. He was employed by the Catalytic Saver CAREY, Construction Co. of Canada « Lad, for 15 months as project manager of the United : States Air Force Base at Frobisher Bay. He was sectional * superintendent on the MidCanada Early Warning Line for - the Canadian Marconi Company from February, 1960, to June, 1962. ; President John DeHart of the LVRA said today that there will be an open discussion at the meeting of the pro- * posed restoration of the Ward system of municipai elections for Oshawa. There has been much agitation in Lake Vista of late, as * in several other City districts, for a more equitable represen- * tation on City Council ---- many complaints are prompted by » the fact that the entire area south of the CPR line is repre- sented by only one alderman, Norman Down, who resides in the far eastern sector; also many object to having six or seven aldermen resident in one district (the northeast). jnew Economic Council of Can- unieiedgepicnnanianmanian tk about 25 per cent. ® represented 8.1 per cent of the) 1e aps gross national product.
