2 THE OSHAWA TIMES, Tuesdey, March 10, 1964 GOOD EVENING -- By JACKGEARIN -- REGIMENTAL BAND HAS GLORIOUS TRADITIONS When Spring breezes start to blow local music lovers automatically think of the Band of the Ontario Regiment. Oshawa's beloved, red-coated musical ensemble with the glorious tradition -- its history predates the turn of the century -- will again perform in its old spot, the McLaugh- lin Bandshell in Memorial Park (where they have presented more than 300 concerts in 22 years). The Band owes a lot to its honorary patron, Col. R. S. McLaughlin for equipment, / uniforms and inspiration (he also presented the Band- shell to the City in 1942); in return, the unit has pro- vided much-appreciated mu- sical entertainment, brought favorable publicity to the City (it won the Dominion championship at the Cana- dian National Exhibition © eight times since 1938, per- formed before 25,000 in the Massed Militia Band Con- cert at the CNE). The 35 members of the % Band (like all citizens asso- CAPT, QUICK ciated with the Militia these : days) keep a weather eye on Ottawa for some anticipated major announcements -- they are watching the Royal Commission on Reorganization of the Canadian Army Militia under the Chairmanship of Bri- gadier E. R. Suttie, which could make some revolutionary recommendations. The Commission has been sitting-three weeks. It is expected to complete its report within four months. It's anybody' guess how long the Federal govern- ment would take to act on the recommendations, Regardless of what the final result may be, it's incon- ceivable that the Ontario Regiment would be left without a ° band; whether or not such recommendation is made, the 35 members will continue to operate, to carry on the pro- gtam tradition of organization. Capt. George Quick, the band's director of Music, has made no statement, but plans are advancing for an active year -- the Band performs many public services without remuneration, such as the recent occasion when it played at the Flag dedication ceremony in the Armories for the cadets of the Ontario Regiment. Captain Quick, incidentally, is a graduate of the Royal Academy of Music in England. He joined the Ontarios October 1, 1963. Frank J. Francis, Captain Quick's predecessor as Band- master of the Band of the Ontario Regiment, will be leaving Oshawa next Summer -- he was recently appointed head of Music at Fleming Senior High School in North York (north of Highway 401 and Bathurst street, Toronto), Mr. Francis, a head of Music at the McLaughlin Collegiate and Vocational Institute, came to Oshawa from England (where he was also a graduate of Kneller Hall) to be bandmaster of the On- tarios June 19, 1958. HARBOR TO HAVE TURNBASIN FOR SEAWAY VESSELS Further to that planned expenditure of $73,000 by the. Federal government this year on the Oshawa Harbor -- Commission Chairman Fred Malloy said Saturday that of the $60,000 allocated for dredging, the bulk will be used to en- large the northeast sector of the harbor basin between Yachthaven and the south end of Farewell avenue. This will allow a turning radius for seaway vessels. The remainder of the dredging will be done to remove silt and increase the depth of the harbor -- other expendi- tures this year will be incurred for floodlights on the new 500-foot wharf as well as minor repairs to the west docks. RIDING LIBERALS AT BELLEVILLE CONVENTION NOTES FROM THE HUSTINGS: Did you notice how well this 'district was represented last Saturday at the annual meeting of the Ontario Liberal Association South-Central area in Belleviile? Sam Hollingsworth, new president of the Ontario (Fed- eral) Riding Liberal Association, was elected to the man- agement committee, Thomas Harris of Port Perry was elected to the constitution committee and Duncan McIntyre of Whitby to the nominating committee: Russell C, Honey, MP, Durham, was there, also Dr. Pauline Jewett, MP, Nor- thumberland, and John Lay of Ajax. Best news out of the riding Liberal camp today con- cemed William G. Lawson, former ORLA president and now secretary. He was back to work at his Pickering Village law office today after that five-day convalescent period in the Oshawa Gengral Hospital, His illness was not serious ("an ,angina pain of little consequence", said one Liberal spokesman)). LITTLE NOTES FROM HERE AND THERE Mayor Lyman Gifford is quickly regaining his old bounce, if still a patient in St. Michael's Hospital, Toronto -- he visited for more than 90 minutes last Saturday with Acting-Mayor Hayward Murdoch and City Clerk Roy Bar- rand ("His Worship has lost weight, but he looks years younger," said Mr. Barrand. 'He also looks well, despite his his recent serious illness". (Mr. Gifford finds the convales- cence period boring, which is to be expected of a man who has been so active for so many years. (He was the youngest warden of Ontario County at 38). He still deputizes all municipal work to City Hall, but he is on the mend. . . Friends here of Mr. and Mrs, T. D. Thomas still expect them to return to Oshawa in June from their current visit to South Africa -- they were in Kruger National Park, Rhodesia, last week.

He told reporters after the opening round of a two-day con- Federal Minimum, Wage Could Prod Provinces ference with provincial labor ministens that he will proceed in Parliament- with legislation to establish a national minimum wage, a normal working week, vacations with pay and statu- tory holidays. But he said that he will '"as- sess' the views of the prov- inces in framing the specific FIRST VOTERS standards to be established un- der the labor code. "The matter will then go be- fore the government," he said. "We haven't made any final de- termination on this questien." A source said there was gen- eral support from the provinces for federal labor standards but some differences emerged on how they should be introduced. $1.25 RATE FAVORED Mr. MacEachen is understood to favor a $1.25 minimum hourly wage--well above the minimum rates in effect in the provinces, It would affect about 50,000 workers of the 550,000 em- ployed in industries under fed- eral labor jurisdiction. But the federal wage floor would also encourage pressure on provincial governments to raise their- minimum rates to the national level. | Mr. MacEachen said the pro:| vincial ministers were inter- |due to expire March 31. ested in the possible effect of a federal wage standard on their provincial rates, which| range from 35 cents an hour for women in Newfoundland to $1 an hour for factory workers in British Columbia. He said the possibility of in- troducing the minimum wage on a regional basis as a prelimin- ary step toward a national min- imum wage was one method un- der consideration. LIBERALS ON RECORD Although the government hais not spelled out its specific la- bor standards, the Liberal party is on record in favor of a $1.25 minimum hour wage, a 40-hour normal work week, two weeks vacation with pay after one year of employment, plus seven sta- tutory holidays. The jabor ministers' confer- ence--first since 1946 -- also tackled the problem of co-ordi- nating federal-provincial efforts to provide more skilled work- ers, A draft agreement for a three- year cost-sharing program for apprenticeship training was pro- posed by federal authorities to replace an existing agreement The new agreement--to last three years instead of the ,pre- vious 10 years--includes some new features designed to de- velop a skilled, flexible work fore to meet the changing needs of industry. ground.

After a long study of the com- mission record and an inquiry of its own, the society. an- nounced Monday findings of "conduct unbecoming a barris- ter and solicitor" against Wal- ton C. Rose, David Humphrey and Sol Gebirtig, all of Toronto, Mr. Humphrey was fined $1,500 and Mr. Rose $500--the later fine smaller because a court previously had ordered Mr. Rowse to pay personally the costs of an abortive action against the commission on be- half of the gamblers. WERE WITNESSES All three were witnesses be- fore the commission, which found McDermott and Feeley-- who employed Mr. Rose as counsel at the commission and the other two in various capaci- ties earlier--to have been the kingpings of a gambling empire. The gamblers now are serv- ing 14-year sentences. for con- spiring to obtain gambling raid tipoffs illegally from police. Last week, they were acquitted of fraud charges in connection with sale of stock in mining claims they own, Mr. Rose; counsel for the gambling pair through the crime inquiry, was reprimanded on two counts. The first concerned an inci- dent in 1957 when--as he testi- fied before the royal commis- sion--he adopted the guise of a shirt salesman who had lost money at the Roseland gam- bling club near Windsor, during a meeting at Detroit with an Ontario Provincial Police offi- cer who had raided the club. i. 3 Lawyers Reprimanded | For Gambling Ring Ties had a perfect right to bring on the court action. iner through his office after Gandiner came out from a jail It said the size of Mr. Rose's fine took into account the fact cost of the action against Mr. Rose personally.

RALPH RUTLEDGE Preaching ond Singing the Gospel ALL ARE WELCOME EVIDENCE CONFLICTED There was conflicting evi- dence by Mr. Rose and OPP Sgt. Jack Hatch as to what transpired at the meeting. The officer said the lawyer tried to find out what evidence the po- lice needed. The society said that a meet- ing of the kind in Ontario would have "come close to constitut- ing public mischief and obstruc- tion of a police officer" but added it gave him the 'benefit | of the doubt on the claim that he was trying to find out what evidence was available, it said he erred in taking gui- dance from McDermott in the incident, in assuming a false identity and in conveying false information to the policeman. The society also held Mr. Rose guilty of ecoreie conduct in using offensive words with- out justification against Mr, Jus- tice W. D.
