2 THE OSHAWA TIMES, Thursday, Merch 19, 1964 GOOD EVENING 5 -- ByJACKGEARIN -- KIN STADIUM'S FUTURE STILL IN DOUBT The fate of the City's Kinsmen Stadium is ag much of 'Tiddle today as it was in 1963 when Ontario Motor Sales of- fered $85,000 it. City Council let it be known Monday it was not ready this time, which left the distinct impression that it ready tomorrow, if the price was right, ("The door Open to another offer," said Alderman John Brady.) , _ Alderman Walter Branch, chairman of Finance and a former president of the Oshawa Kinsmen Club, re- quested Wednesday that the following point be emphasiz- [4 ed -- Council's special Stad- ' ium committee, of which he was chairman, wanted to negotiate with Ontario Mo- tor Sales, but Council didn't want to sell at this tinie. The committee never did negotiate with the firm. Other commitee members were Harold Roughley of the Kinsmen Club; E. R. S. "Dick" McLaughlin of the : Civic Auditorium commit- tee; Aldermen John Dyer a and Hayward Murdoch. A spokehman for the Kinsmen Club (which built the stadium from public subscription and club promotions. in 1948-49 and turned it over to the City for $1) said today the club's official stand on the disposal of the property and con- tents was unchanged from that of last Fall -- i.e., they would agree to any disposal as long as a stadium of the same intent and purpose (with the same facilities) replaced it on another suitable property without cost to the taxpay- ers. They also requested that the Kin name. continue to be identified with the proposed new project. The man on the street is concerned about the possible disposal of the stadium because it was built largely (under Kin promotion) with dimes and dollars contributed by him. Any deviation from the above-stated club policy could have a damaging effect on future fund-raising drives of this sort. Some aldermen estimate the cost of transferring the stad- ium to the Civic Auditorium site on Thornton road south at $160,000, The stadium has been somewhat of a colossal white ele- 'phant, but it should have high value in a real estate swap. Council has a moral obligation to maintain it, or its coun- terpart, for the same purpose for which it was built with those dimes and dollars away back in 1948-49, NOTES ON THE WARD SYSTEM MEMO TO ALL CITY CLUBS: Good after-dinner speakers are not easy to come by, as some painful performances of late on the local banquet cir- cuit clearly indicate. For those sufficiently imbued with a spirit of civic pride, there is a wonderful way to kill two birds with one stone-- Le., to entertain members and perform a _ worthwhile public service at the same time, Why. not conduct an impartial public forum on the Ward system of municipal government,, being careful to present both sides in a fair and reasonable light so nobody can be reasonably offended? Such, an open debate would have irresistible appeal for thousands in this City who are anxious to hear the pros and cone of this controversial subject. Let's not leave such worthwhile projects altogether to organizations like the Oshawa Jaycees or the Oshawa and District Labor Council, The ward system is not a one-way street insofar as open discussion is concerned -- there are many sides to it and the more heard the better informed we will be. DIRECTOR'S SPHERE IS ENLARGED Tt's official now. Director of Operations Kevin Cahill is in charge of the City Engineering Department, as was recommended in' the Woods, Gordon Report of 1962. This was a logical appointment for the Director because this department functions so closely with that of the Board of Works Yard, which Mr. Cahill also heads (together with the Parks, Property and Recreation Department.) MONTREAL (CP) -- Harold Chamberlain Banks, who traded for years on being a tough guy, has been ousted as president of the Seafarers' International Un- ion of Canada (Ind.) The 54-year-old powerful and controversial union leader who came to Canada 15 years ago was removed from office by or- der of the board of trustees for maritime unions, The announce- ment was made here by the trustees and in the Commons by Labor Minister MacEachen. Charles Turner, 40, of the Brotherhood of Railway Clerks, an employee of the trustees for the last two months, was ap- pointed to the SIU presidency. There were at least 40 RCMP and Montreal policemen sur- rounding SIU headquarters on St. James Street in the heart of Montreal's financial district when Banks' dismissal' was an- nounced. There were no _inci- dents. The announcement of the oust- ing of the leader of the 14,000- man union was made over a loudspeaker in SIU headquar- ters. TRUSTEE MOVES IN Charles Millard, one of the three trustees, will move into SIU headquarters to supervise administration of the largest of the maritime unions under trus- teeship. Banks refused to talk to re- porters who reached him at his home in suburban Pointe Claire. He remains an international vice-president of the SIU of North America (AFL-CIO). The announcement of his dis- missal was greeted with ap- plause in the Commons, while one U.S. labor official said it was a "disaster." Former labor minister Mich- ael Starr, who appointed Mr. Justice Norris to inquire. into the dispute, said he felt Labor Minister MacEachen was not revealing all the facts. He said there seemed to be more truth than fiction in re- ports that the ouster was ap- proved in an agreement involv- ing the SIU, the U.S. govern- ment and the Canadian govern- met. Peter M. McGavin, executive secretary treasurer of the AFL-CIO maritime: trades de- partment, said in a Washington interview the removal "'is a dis- aster to. the trade union move- men and a disaster to the rela- jonship beween Canada and the United States." In Ottawa, William J. Smith, national president of the Cana- dian Brotherhood of Railway, Transport and General Workers (CLC), said he was "delighted to see that the trustees are fin- ally moving to discharge their primar yresponsibility and that is to manage and contro! the SIU." Frank Aubusson, SIU interna- tional representative in Chicago, said he did not know what ef- fect the ouster would have on the marathon tie-up of grain vessels in Chicago. Mr. Justice Victor Dryer, chairman of the trusteeship, read a short statement at a press conference but refused to answer questions on the grounds that the matters involved were "too complicated to be an- swered in a few words" which could be open to misinterpreta- tion. Banks dismissal followed 'ong consideration of the af- fairs and interests of the SIU of Canada and the interests of the maritime industry and coun- try as a whole." Mr. Justice Dryer had said in earlier statements that he preferred union members them- selves to. remove union leaders as long as trustee directives were obeyed. However, recently he expanded this to include re- moval from office in the na- tional interest. "It is part of a long-term pro- gram designed to achieve the objectives set out in the legis- lation" to bring labor peace to the Great Lakes. 'We concluded that we cou not achieve that objective with- out taking this step." The step was made in the in- terest of the SIU and its rank | SAN FRANCISCO (AP)--The president of the American Bar Association said Wednesday that Jack Ruby's trial lawyer, Melvin Belli, showed flagrant disregard for the code of profes- sional ethics and his oath as a lawyer. Walter C. Craig of Phoenix, Ariz., bar association head, said Belli's "unrestrained com- ments" Saturday after Ruby was found guilty of murder in the slaying of Lee Harvey Os- wald and his punishment fixed as death were "a discredit to him (Belli) and to his profes- sion." Craig, in a speech at a lunch- eon meeting of the San Fran- cisco Bar Association, said a number of unethical conduct complaints have been. received from member lawyers concern- ing Belli's statements. Belli blazed with wrath when the verdict was returned March 14, declaring: "Now we see the glory." He called the verdict a "kangaroo railroad" by a jury that was "shoved down our throats."

Some of the criticism wag inevitable since the Depart- ment was the largest in the municipal framework. As the report pointed out: "Some, while directed at the Engineer's Department, is more truly a disagreement with the City's policy in the engineering field, which policy is established, or at least endorsed, by Council. Some criticism again in the area of work«scheduling, and co-ordination, may be justified. "The City Engineer's department in Oshawa has a larger staff than other cities of comparable size." As an indication of the heavy expenditures administered by this department last year, $1,849,000 was spent in 1963 on such. things as sanitary sewers and sewer connections, storm sewers and catch basin, watermaing and water acon- nections, road paving, granular base and curb and gutter, bridges and culverts, sidewalks and miscellaneous construc- tion, The above amount was obtained from the 1963 tax levy and from the issuance of debentures. A total of $1,849,000 was obtained from other sources such as Department of Highways subsidy, contributions from Grade Crossing Fund, Winter Works subsidy, payments for sewer connections, parking meter revenue, The Nigerian Times eaid in a front-page editorial that Doug- las-Home was seeking "to en- list support for Britain's pro- posal to grant independence to Southern Rhodesia.""

Mr. Millard read another statement that the long -range program of the trustees calls for readmission of the SIU into the Canadian Labor Congress 'and for cementing of international affiliations of the union." "No decision has been reached as to further _ dismis- sals but a meeting of SIU offi- cers will be scheduled at the earliest opportunity." Mr. Turner was born in South Shields, England, and has re- sided jn Montreal for the last 17 years. He first went to sea some 25 years ago, As a member of the brother- hood, he served as chairman of the railway clerks grievance committee in Montreal. He also represented employees of Rail- way Express Agency across Canada. There was the usual activity in the SIU hall following the an- nouncement prepared by the trustees. It said simply: 'Hal Banks has been fired. All members are asked to maintain internal dis- cipline." For Banks, it marked the ap- parent end to 15 years of being "the big boss': in Canadian shipping. | Bandit Kills Self After Wounding OPP BURLINGTON (CP) -- Police jsaid a 24 - year - old bandit| shot and killed himself after wounding a provincial police constable in a bank holdup here Wednesday. : The bandit shot and wounded Const, William Tuskas while es- caping from the Canadian Im- perial Bank of Commerce with $3,000. Police identified the man as Morris Robertson of Burlington. They said he shot himself as police closed in on him. The holdup occurred half an |hour before the bank was due |to close at 3 p.m. Harold Adkins a witness to the holdup, said the bandit ran lout of the bank with a gun in |his hand as a police car drew near. Const. Tuskas got out of the car and shouted at the man, who fired several shots. One| hit Tuskas in the leg, Mr. Ad- |kins said. Robertson was reported to have held' bank manager Wil- liam Pizer at gun - point while tellers handed over the money. Const. Tuaskas was taken to hospital where his condition was satisfactory, SERVES INDUSTRY The Japan Chamber of Com- merce and Industry is a feder- ation of 445 chambers in various cities, INTERPRETING THE NEWS By CARMAN CUMMING Canadian Press Staff Writer United Nations Undersecre- tary Ralph Bunche, an acknowl- edged authority on peace-keep- ing forces, delivered a 28-page speech on the subject in New York this week without ever mentioning «the. word Cyprus. But, he raised some interest- ing points relevant to the latest UN venture in the Mediterran- ean trouble spot--and to the debate over the functions and powers of the force. Specifically, he talked of the relationship of UN peace-keep- ing forces to local governments and whether a UN force can use its weapons to keep order. Some eyebrows have been raised by the tentative terms of reference of the Cyprus force, particularly stipulations that the force can fire only in self- defence, can take no action to disarm Cypriots and can not interfere in the country's inter- nal affairs. To some observers, this has seemed to be tantamount to giving a policeman a gun, then telling him he can't use it until a criminal opens fire on hm. STILL CAN ACT Bunche talked of the UN Congo force, sayng its weapons had been used for defensive purposes only--"although they may be used for its protection when it is discharging respon- sibilities assigned to it by se- curity council resolutions, such as the ,, Preventon of civil Translated into the terms of the Cyprus force, this principle would mean that the UN troops will not be expected to sit idly by while, for example, a group of Turkish-Cypriots and a group Would UN Fire On Civilians? [Secret on opposite sides of a 'street. | UN planners hope, of course, |that this kind of situation won't jarise. Bunche commented that he doubted any UN peace force could be stationed for very long in any country if, even in self- defence, it would have to turn its guns on civilians rather than military forces, Bunche also said that the Congo force had carefully re- frained from interfering in the internal affairs of the country except upon the specific re- quest of Congolese authorities, EFFECT FELT Despite this, it is clear that action by the Congo force had the effect of preventing the secession of wealthy Katanga province and thus has had a profound effect on the interna] affairs of the Congo. In the case of Cyprus, the issue is complicated by ques- tions of the legality of the Nicosia government of Presi- dent Makarios since the Turk- ish-Cypriots take no part in it. Secretary-General U Thant is dealing with the Makarios gov- ernment and will certainly be under pressure from it to use the force to put down the rebel- lion of the Turks. Several countries taking part in the force, including Canada and Britain, are understood to be pressing the UN to insist that the force be allowed to do business with both communi- ties. Even aside from the threat of Turkish intervention, it is doubt- ful that the countries involved would permit their troops to be used only to bolster the power of Greek-Cypriots set up ma- of the Makarios government. = --> i i 25? 32?

OTTAWA (CP) -- It was aj day of soul-searching for the Commons and other pressing] business was sidelined for the occasion. The reason: A motion Wed- nesday by Creditiste House Leade: Gilles Gregoire to cen- sure the deputy Speaker of the House, Lucien Lamoureux. The charge was that the 43- year-old Mr. Lamoureux -- a man well-liked by most mem- bers--had disregarded a Com- mons rule designed to protect the rights of minority members. In a debate 'involving some searching self examination, which, continues today, most speakers decided the blame lay elsewhere, Some even blamed themselves. Only rarely has a_ presiding) officer of the house been so challenged. The last non-confi- dence motion against a Speaker was presented, unsuccessfully, by the Conservatives in 1956 against the then speaker, Rene Beaudoin, as a result of the fa- mous Trans-Canada Pipeline de- bate. j "Nothing could be more ser- ious than a challenge to the in- tegrity of the chair," said Stan- ley Knowles (NDP -- Winnipeg North Centre), an expert in Commons rules and traditions. He and others, while agreeing an error had been made, urged Mr. Gregoire to withdraw his motion. "In courts of law a dog is entitled to one bite--surely a deputy Speaker is entitled to one mistake," said Opposition Leader Diefenbaker. But Mr. Gregoire declined to withdraw, and his motion-- holding precedence over all other Commons business-- comes up for debate again to- day, delaying further the start of the six-day budget debate. Mr. Gregoire's motion arose over a procedural issue which cropped up last Friday night when Prime Minister Pearson won parliamentary approval to sénd troops for the United Na- tions peacekeeping force in Cyp- rus. * WAS THERE CONSENT? The issue: The ruling then by: DOFFS HAT 3 TIMES LONDON (CP) -- pales) Thomson of Fleet, watched by a) host of spectators including aj wide-eyed six-year-old who one, day will inherit the barony, took his seat in the House of; Lords Wednesday for the first) time. j At the conclusion of the brief ceremony, members of both sides of the House cried 'hear, hear' in approval of their new colleague as Thomson accepted the congratulations of the lord chancellor and left the chamber. Earlier the Canadian - born press magnate was host at a luncheon attended by more than 60 friends and relatives, includ- ing his son and heir, Kenneth, with his wife Marilyn and their son, six-year-old David. Other guests, along with exe- cutives of the Thomson organ- ization, included: Field Marshal Viscount Montgomery, Cecil Harmsworth King, publisher of the Daily Mirror group and one of Thomson's most powerful ri- vals on Fleet, Street, centre of Britain's newspaper industry, Thomson Enters House Of Lords Thomson, wearing the scarlet robe of a baron with its 2% bars of gold and ermine, was led to the head of the chamber where Lord Dilhorne, the lord chancellor, received the docu- ment entitling him to take his eat, terms of Thomson's title, Thom- son took the oath to the Queen and signed the document of his peerage, REPEAT THREE TIMES The three peers then pro- ceeded to an empty back bench and Thomson was seated for the first time, The three then rose together, doffed their black cocked hats to the lord chan- cellor, and sat down, They re- peated this three times before 'finally leaving the chamber. jthe procession to grasp the hand as other peers cried their wel- full title is Baron Thomson of Fleet, of Northbridge in the City of Edinburgh.

During prayers members kneel on the benches facing the walls, a tradition that dates bers carried swords and found it awkward to kneel on the floor between the benciies, Shortly after spectators were seated in the so-called '"'strang- ers' gallery," Lord Cholmon- deley, lord great chamberlain, led in Thomson and his two "supporters" or sponsors--Lord | Balfour of Inchrye, a Conserva- tive and the Earl of Longford, | a socialist peer.

Yet, he said, Mr. Pearson that eve- ning had presented his resolu- tion without seeking unanimous consent, He said that 14 seconds afte: the prime minister started, An- toine Belanger (Creditiste -- Charlevoix) had protested, But Deputy Speaker Lamoureux had Tuled that Mr. Pearson had 're- quested consent and received it, since no objection had been raised immediately. Mf. Gregoire charged that Mr, Lamoureux overlooked Mr. Belanger's right to object in or- der 'to accommodate" the prime minister. He also put blame on the prime minister, saying he had knowingly violaetd the rules which he should be the first to uphold, BOTH AWAY Both Mr. Pearson--at home with a cold--and Mr.' Lamour- eux were absent as Mr, Greg- oire's charges were made and debated. Mr. Diefenbaker said that every MP would "frankly ad- mit that an error was made on But he laid the blame at the government's door, saying the trouble' arose because of its haste to present itself to the hg as a benefactor of man- The opposition leader said the deputy Speaker had misunder- . stood the situation. "Are we to condemn him be- cause of a misunderstanding? . . » I will not join in this. This is too serious a resolution." External Affars Minister Martin denied that either the government or Mr. Lamouretx was to blame. "I'm not prepared to admit fully that there was an error,' he said. If there was, the error was shared by every member. Mr. Knowles protested that no one was accepting the blame. "I share the blame for what happened Friday night," he said. "I refuse to put it else- where." A mistake had been made and members--by remaining silent shared responsibility, Mr, Lam- oureux had acted with the con- sent of almost the entire Com- mons and shouldn't be made a scapegoat.
