THE OSHAWA TIMES, Mondey, June 29, 1964 1 {] points of interest will be lighted! 20 'Chef' Drapeau Debt With UK Shakes Traders By JOHN BELANGER Press Staif Writer That age-old problem .of the imbalance between Can- ada and the United Kingdom raised its ugly head again this week. : D. F. Kershaw, president of the British Canadian Trade As- sociation told that body's 12th annual meeting at Montebello, Que., tha Canada's anti-dump- ing laws "very definitely act as a deterrent to the development of British sales in this market." He outlined moves afoot) But the shellacking Britain en-| in B for a substantial ex- port drive to Canada where, he said, "'the level of Canadian im-|Canada suffers at the trading) ports from Britain has not been the United Kingdom a total of with $909,040,688 exported the previous year. Imports from Britain were $526,840,216 com- pared with $563,062,214. And the figures for the first three months of this year show little improvement in the U.K.'s position. For the three months ended March 31, Canada ex- pored $266,058,280 to Britain compared with exports during the same period of 1963 of $208,- $21,714. dures at Canada's hands is still light compared with the beating tists on the United Stase too favorable in the past two) In 1963, he U.S _ exported He added that "it is apparent that some definite improvement is now taking place.' "However, in comparison with British export performance in other markets, and notably the U.S.A., much still remains to be done in Canada." How serious is the trading deficit? $4,444,938,647 to Canada com- pared with $4,299,539,302 in 1962. But Canada exported to the U.S. only $3,765,389,907 cm- pared with $3,608,438,506. The situation is improving for Canada in the U.S. market, however, as exports to the U.S. totalled $926,288,263 for the first with $841,335,469 during the In 1963, Canada exported to! same 1963 period. Racial Violence Jars N.Y. Nerves NEW YORK (AP)--A series of crimes by Negroes against whites on New York's streets and subways has the city on edge, Not terrified, but uneasy. Here are some things that have happened recently, al- though one official says such a list could have been compiled any time in the last 30 years. --Whites have been stabbed, beaten and robbed on subway trains and platforms. --A' white woman was raped and killed on a self-service ele- vator in Brooklyn. A white law- yer was stabbed fo death on an elevator in Manhattan. Both were in their own apartment buildings. --A Jewish neighborhood in Brooklyn, plagued by nightly muggings and burglaries, is running a "citizens safety pa- trol" with cars cruising the dark streets, watching. --On a subway, a Negro held a meat cleaver at the throat of the motorman and demanded "are you black or white?" --Another Negro marched through a train, flipping the) neckties of white passengers and declaring: "I'm the only Negro on this train." INCIDENTS. UNCONNECTED Incidents are unconnected, sporadic, and often senseless. The New York Times reports a Negro gang in Harlem whose sole object is killing whites. Harlem leaders say it doesn't exist. hot summer" of racial vio- lence? Officialdom says no. But Mayor Robert Wagner beefed up the transit police force and ordered patrolmen to ride to and from work on subways in uniform. It will cost an extra "All of us together,".said Po- lice Commissioner Michael Mur- phy, "can turn the threat of a \long, hot summer into a cool, jealm, constructive period of | progress." | Stanley Lowell, chairman of ithe city human rights commis- |sion, blames newspapers for most of the concern. 'We're not necessarily in for |what they euphemistically call la long, hot summer,"' said Low- |ell. "Every day the newspapers give us a compendium of inci- dents, They never mention these incidents have been going jon for 30 or 30 years. It's just part of a metropolis with 10,- 000,000 people rubbing against each other." Most Negro leaders also dis- count the prospect of riots, al- | though they promise stepped-up peaceful demonstrations. "I'm not naive enough to be- lieve we won't have individual lerimes," said Roy Wilkins, jchairman of the National Asso- | ciation for the Advancement of {Colored People.

But few pedple seemed inter- ested, Duvalier's themes had be- come' so familiar that even a loyal backer didn't bother to lis- ten and asked later: "Did he say anything new?" A physician - politician who has held the presidency since 1957, Duvalier formerly rarely spoke more than three times a year and then only briefly. That has changed since he announced in April that, at the request of the people, he would take over the job for life. _.._Hevhas been averaging four speeches a week. Some joke about his monotone delivery and picturesque language, although none doubts he means it when, for instance, he declares: "If anyone goes to the right or the left of me or does not follow me I will pass his rump through a sieve." Duvalier still depends on po- lice suppression of all opposi- tion. The suppression seems complete. There is no sign of ef- fective underground activity. Some Haitians say only a suc- cessful invasion by exiles or a coup from within the govern- ment would topple Papa Doc. Duvalier takes no chances. GUARD AROUND HIM Accompanying him to the in- auguration was an armed guard of 80 men--police, soldiers and militiamen. Only foreign ambas- sadors and the highest Haitian government officials were al-| lowed to attend but the entire guard jammed ine the assem- bly hall Duvalier said: Haiti is exper- iencing a rebirth and is on the road to prosperity. | pairs.
