EE AE @ THE OSHAWA TIMES, Mondoy, Jonuary 20, 1964 GOOD EVENING -- By JACK GEARIN NDP PRESIDENT (EX-LIBERAL) WOOS. DR. VIPOND Did you notice, dear reader, where the 1963-64 president of the New Democratic Party, Ontario (Federal) Riding is Ottawa-born Louis Charles Munroe? He's a personable, well-informed-and articulate man who knows first-hand what it feels like to work on both sides of the political fence. ' Munroe, 34, (like Douglas Fisher, MP, Port Arthur, the Party's profound observer and analyst at the Parliamentary : level) is a High School teach- er.-- he's assistant head of the English Department, Mc- Laughlin Collegiate and Vo- cational Institute. He is proud of his friend- ship with Dr. Claude Vipond, former Liberal candidate in Ontario Riding Federal (with whom he still plays Bridge, for whom he labored "'long and hard" in the 1958 cam- paign when the Liberals went down under) -- he also likes to recall that he was president of the Oshawa Lib- eral Association in Ontario (Federal) Riding in 1959-60. Speaking of his party's local membership drive, he gaid: steed "Dr. Vipond is a well- qualified individual who could make a fine contribution as a member of Parliament -- I would like to see him a member of the New Democratic Party. He has so much to offer." Key purpose of the local NDP executive, says Munroe, is to develope "the organizational work" and to inform members (and all interested in. their political future) by means of open discussions at which "noted speakers" would attend. Munroe says the party would like to increase all classes of its membership, not just the "white collar" workers. He added that the NDP is asking Ontario (Federal) Riding voters to join the party, to work it and to support it financially. "Tommy Douglas and Donald MacDonald have emphati- cally stated that they are not interested in entering discus- sions about the proposed Liberal-NDP merger," he added. "The democratic structure of the NDP is a contrast to the top-down policy of both the old parties. The financing of the NDP, dependant on individual contributions, differs with the old parties who are subservient to 'big business'."" jterm, for operating illegal liq-| juor stills in the 1930s, Leader Diefenbaker said on his return to Ottawa Sunday he be- Hint Matia Involved In Bombing DETROIT (AP) -- Santo (Sam) Perrone, linked by police to the Mafia. underworld, was severely injured when a bomb shattered his car Sunday.

As Cairo Meet Ends - By WILLIAM L, RYAN (AP)--<Arab kings and presidents have departed from Cairo leaving westerners puz- zied about. whom the Arabs fear most--themselves or the Israelis, What the Arab rulers pro- duced at their summit meeting beside the Nile will do little to strike' terror into the Israeli heart or make Israel hesitate in her program for diverting the Jordan River waters. The net impression of the meeting is. that-most Arab lead- ers are unready and unwilling to risk a shooting war with Is- rael. Thus for all their 'talk of opposing "Zionist imperialism" with military preparations, lit- tle is likely*to come of it in today's circumstances, : As for a big display of unity, the leaders appeared to have accomplished some things such as restoration of relations be- tween the frequently feuding United Arab Republic and Jor- dan. Gestures were made to- ward patching up the. Saudi Arabian quarrel with Cairo and even the bitter Saudi opposition) to the fledgling anti-royalist re- gime- in Yemen. But the cautious wording of| the final communique, its deli- cate mincing about the edges of what it was trying to imply, seem to indicate much of the display of unity is a veneer which could quickly rub off as it has so many times in the past. ALL SIGN Leaders of all 13 Arab na- tions put their signatures to the nique and to a set of resolu- tions dealing with the Jordan water situation and joint mili- tary preparations. But' the resolutions were not published after the meeting. This, in itself, suggests that Arab leaders do not want to risk announcing plans which might have a' provocative ring in Israeli ears, that Arab lead- ers do not want to commit themselves publicly to a. course of action which they might re- gret and that Arab leaders were not unanimous in their notions of what should be done about Israel. It. seems likely Arab chief- tians' were divided into several camps: Those calling for vio- lent action against the Israel water project, those preferring a more cautious approach of waiting and building, and those who did not really care too much about. the Israeli situation and. whowould just as soon let the question dissolve into the background. In the latter category. might be leaders of North African states, who seemed out of place Jat such a meeting. Meanwhile, Reuters news agency reported from Beirut, Lebanon, an announcement that Lebanon, Syria and Jordan had tributaries of the Jordan their territories.

Cecil Bint of City Council's Board of Works committee said today Director of Operations Kevin Cahill was recently authorized (by his committee) to proceed with reorganization of the Board of Works Yard, but to leave contact with the superintendent to Mayor Lyman Gifford and to withhold any action on lay-offs until further study was given and reported to Council. Here are some questions submitted to Mr. Bint by this de- partment with his answers: Question -- Do you think the Board of Works Yard requires any reorganization? Answer -- Mr. Cahill on receipt of his report was author- ized to proceed with reorganization of the Yard, but to leave contact with the superintendent to the Mayor and to withold any action on layoffs until further study was given and reported to . Council. Question -- Would you care to elaborate on any ideas you might have for such reorganization? Would the Cahill Report be of any value in such re-organi- ration program? Answer -- (A) -- No. (B) -- Mr. Cahill was given a free hand except on the two points above and has appointed a superintendent and three foremen. Question -- Do you think the Board of Works Yard is over- staffed, understaffed, or adequately staffed for the works program it has to do? Answer -- Yes, it is overstaffed, but my opinion is based on Mr. Cahill's report. In the years following annex- ation there was a great backlog of work. Every street in the annexed area had to be dug up for sanitary sewers, resulting in considerable road maintenance. Now that the sanitary sewer pro- gram is completed, we are able to improve the road surface by paving and dix seal, resulting in less road maintenance. Since 1960, we have reduced the staff from 215 to 188, Regular retire- ments will further reduce this number by four in 1964. Question -- You have stated that, in your personal opinion, the Cahill report should have been restricted to your Board of Works committee and Mayor Gif- ford -- could you elaborate on why you feel this way? Answer -- At the request of Mayor Gifford in a meeting of the Committee with Mr. Cahill to study the re- port, His Worship instructed that this report be kept confidential and in the hands of the five men in attendance. It was, therefore not re- stricted by men, but it was then, and is now, my opinion that it should have been dealt with in this manner. This report is addressed to the Works committee as a report by Mr. Cahill and the Report is so captioned. In your few remarks on the Cahill Report, you referred to it once as: "One Man's Opinion', etc. which would indicate that you regarded it with considerable reservation. Is that observation cor- rect? If so, please elaborate. 'Answer -- This is one man's report as, portions of same require documented reports, it was and should be confidential, All of the above questions are being followed up by Mr. Cahill and given time, he will, I am sure, implement measures to cor- rect certain conditions, Question -- Is such commentary -- "One Man's Opinion", etc. -- not likely to put the report in an un- favorable light with many before it was in the hands of Council? : Answer --- This remark was in poor taste. I mean to take the responsibility of the Committee as one man, which'I should not have done. Question -- LITTLE NOTES FROM HERE 4ND THERE e Gordon Attersiey has a special speaking en- . He will address the Coronation Home and ject selected by them: "Should We Attend of City Council?" Mr. Attersley, a political the right answers, but we're wondering this one. He won't likely say that Council meetings are incredibly dull, long drawn out (which they @re) Will he say that the Correspondence periods are now meaningless since the City Clerk does not read out letters to Council (as: heretofor), refers to letters by number only? », ,, Archie Vickers has been transferred by his firm (Carlings " Brewery) as district sales representative in Hamilton, where he reports for duty today. He will move his home there per- manently. He has resided here 11 years, - i Mr. Diefenbaker also told re- porters he believes the govern- ment should be slow to recog- nize Red China because recog- nition would be regarded by southeast Asian countries as approval of the Communist re- gime. The Conservative leader re- turned with Mrs. Diefenbaker and a secretary from a two- week fishing holiday on Vancou- ver Island and speaking tour of Western Canada. His future tra- vel plans, possibly including a swing through Eastern Canada, and his participation in the forthcoming two federal byelec- tions in Montreal are still in- definite, he said. On the Liberal government's record and the likelihood of an early election, Mr. Diefenbaker said: "The government, no matter where it looks, is in trouble. I cannot think of one phase of government policy which does not face difficulty and, that 'be- ing so, the government will have to increase taxation and do a number of other disagree- able things. It has already es- tablished a record in that direc- tion unintentionally." rience would help interpret his action to Johnson. to make certain Barrie Fire Perhaps observer, news of the French plan was made public just as M of/leaving Paris Friday.

If French recognition means that a "'two-Chinas" policy now is acceptable to Peking, Can- ada may have to weigh the ad- vantages and disadvantages of taking a similar step. This also opens up the ques- tion of q United Nations seat for Communist China and whether Communist or Nation- alist China has the right to the China seat on the UN Security Council. In the past, Canada has op- posed moves to seat Commu- nist China at the UN. When the next General Assembly session is held, probably next fall after the U.S. presidential elections, ja further attempt to give the Peking regime a UN seat is cer- tain to be made. OTTAWA (CP) -- Contending that the Canadian tax system has been worked out of balance in recent years, the Canadian Chamber of Commerce Satur- day told the royal commission on taxation how the structure should be rebuilt in the inter- ests of the economy. "All we're trying to do is to bring the balance back where it used to be," said George Keep- ing, past chairman of the cham- ber's executive council. The heart of the 150-page sub- mission was that corporation ard personal income taxes should be sliced down and more emphasis put on sales taxes. Then, said Campbell Leach, chairman of the chamber's tax- ation committee, the govern- ment should avoid any sudden, illogical or crisis - inspired tax changed so that the dian system would be regarded as consistent and reliable.
