She Oshawa Fi Published by Canadian Newspapers Limited 86 King St. E., Oshawa, Ontario T. i, Wiison, 7 WEDNESDAY, NOVEMBER 10, 1965 -- PAGE 4 Tf Youth Given Anything Then Let It Be Challenge By far the majority of teen-agers ' in Oshawa are good prospective citi- «zens. By the interest and enthusi- asm many of them have been show- : ing for community service projects they seem to have reached indepen- dently some of the conclusions drawn by a prominent juvenile court ' judge in the U.S. Denver Judge Philip B. Gilliam of- * fered simple advice to young people *who complain about having "noth- 'ing to do" and "'no place to go". "The answer is," he says, home!" "Hang the storm windows. Paint Sthe woodwork. Rake the leaves. Mow "the lawn. Shovel the walk. Wash the Scar. Scrub the floors. Repair the 'sink. Get a job. "Help the minister, priest or rab- "bi, the Red Cross, the Salvation tion Army. Visit the sick Assist the poor. Study yourlessons. And then when you are through -- and not too tired -- read a book". The man who was voted the "out- statiding juvenile court judge in the ,U.S." says he thinks "work is the greatest thing in the world for kids". Sociologically, the theory is firmly based: the child who has a place in society, especially the work- ing child, seldom gets into trouble. Judge Gilliam voices concern that "go "today's children are not allowed to work at odd jobs, that many of them get too much too soon." Gilliam tells teen-agers: "Your parents do not owe you your enter- tainment. Your town does not owe you recreation facilities. The world does not owe you a living. "But you owe the world some- thing, you owe it your time and energy and your talents so that no one will be at war or in poverty, or sick or lonely again." Gilliam notes that teen-agers who keep begging for benefits are old enough to take on a few responsibil- ities. If they're mature enough to demand privileges, he says, they're mature enough to accept some of the responsibilities you have been carrying for years. Next Monday has been designated as "Oshawa Youth Day" to mark the meeting in the city of the Select Committee on Youth of the Legisla- tive Assembly. The 15 members of the provincial parliament compos- ing the committee will receive briefs from city organizations interested in youth. If talk turns to what can be given to youth, it is hoped 'giving them challenges" receives priority. That is what they most need, and in the end, will most appreciate. The Virtue Of Visibility There used to be a kind of budget- ing, very popular with newlyweds, which required the budgeters to keép a file of labelled envelopes, one for each category. As The Printed Word recalls it, when the end of the month came, it was the theory that the required amount of money would have accumulated and would be sort- ed neatly into rent, insurance, other savings, an dso on. It is said this worked when salary cheques were not exactly inflationary and in spite of a good deal of brisk borrowing that went on among the envelopes.

And it may be that there are young people still using it even in these affluent days. Recently a Queen's University professor made a study for the Ca- nadian Tax Foundation. He included in his report recommendations as well as findings, and one of the rec- ommendations is that the cost of 'welfare programs (except those, such as family allowances and pub- lic relief, designed to redistribute in- come) should be paid for by pre- miums charged to all adult Cana- dians, There is a good deal to be said for this thesis and one argument in fa- vor is visibility of the kind that made budgeting by envelope so clear to the young married couples who followed it. They knew that if they lived beyond their means there were likely to be some thin envelopes at the end of the month. In the welfare state, recipients of government handouts tend to for- get, or never to know, that they pay in for what the government pays out of "general revenues." If each week or each month they saw their money going in to Ottawa as a deduction from_their salary cheques, properly labelled as premiums for specific they might come to be quite budget-minded, Whether mnisters of finance, who are politically minded, would want the populace be budget- minded on budget night is debatable. purposes, to pe OTTAWA REPORT OTTAWA--"'To see ourselves."' | That could be defined as the purpose of the costly decennial census of Canada. In 1961, 30,000 census takers spent two to three weeks in city and rural area, visiting every home across Canada, to gather the information for the census, That material was all tabulated, and for the last four years the census division of the Dominion Bureau of Statistics has been publishing that mound of ma- terial in statistical reports. One such report is entitled, Housing -- Water Supply, Bath and Toilet Facilities. From this, you can learn that 447 of the 4,212 occupied dwellings in Na- naimo, B.C., have two or more inside flush toilets. Or that 645 of the 4,144 homes in Pembroke, Ont., have no installed bath or shower. Another report, entitled Agriculture--Farms by Size and + Use of Farm Land, tells us that the 517 farms in Quebec County cover 48,765 acres, of which slightly over half is unimproved land. The report, Labour Force --Occupations by Sex, tells us that the only "leather cutter" in Prinee Edward Island is a fe- male; that there are 16 long- shoremen in portless Saskatche- wan; that the only two female prospectors in Canada both live in Ontario.

It comes as a surprise, I ex- pect, to learn that, among Can- ada's 18 largets communities, the highest average family in- come is that in the metropolitan area of our capital. Ottawa leads the country with $6,643. Toronto is second, Calgary third, and Sudbury fourth with $6,219.

POPULATION EXPLOSION Within that broad picture, Canada's wealthiest neighbor- hood is shown to be the section of Westmount at the top of Montreal's Mount Royal. Its population over four years of age is 24°". Of its 538 family households, no less than 480 en- joy an income in the top bracket of $10,000 plus--and it is very plus, for the average income of those 538 homes is $42,705. Most of these communities show a majority of residents who moved home during the five years preceding the 1961 census, The rapid growth of the new suburbs = exemplified by one section of Scarborough, just east of Toronto, of whose popu- lation of 10,309 only 263 lived there five years earlier.

Work has already started in preparation for the 1971 census, Manila Maidens, Matrons Disrupt Philippine Politics MANILA (AP)--The Lakam- binis are on the warpath in the Philippines and politics may never be the same again. The Lakambinis are an enthusiastic swarm. of maidens and matrons dedicated to the re- election of President Diosdado Macapagal. Under Manila socialite Chito Madrigal Vasquez, the Lakam- binis have injected something new into the Philippines politi- cal scene. They are mainly poli- tical amateurs--and in a coun- try where women usually have left politics to male-dominated machines. They have reached women voters hardly touched before. USE CHARM In place of the traditional *Bomba"' oratory of the Philip- pines the Lakambinis use charm, song, endless tea-parties and the Philippine woman's highly-developed social instincts. Whatever the outcome of Tues- day's. election--and it is now rated a dead heat--the Lakam- binis. will have left their mark. No national politician of the fu- ture will dare take the woman's vote for granted. The Lakambinis owe their birth to their chief rival, charm- ing Imelda Marcos, the wife of presidential aspirant Senator Ferdinand Marcos. Campaign- ing for the Nacionalista party ticket- of her-hus rd,--the--per- sonal style of Imelda made a serious challenge for the women's vote Reacting belatedly, the Maca- pagal people cast about for a counter They dreamed up the name Lakambini, which is tagalog for muse, and convinced petite seeoemmermereerergcn nn pti Chito Vasquez, previously known mainly for her stylish parties, to head the organiza- tion. GOT SUPPORT QUICKLY Chito--in the Philippines al- most everybody is on a first- name basis--rounded up support with a few telephone calls. Now the organization claims 350,000 members. Between them the Lakambinis and the, rival Marcos ladies: who have a much more infor- mal group known as the Blue Ladies for their dresses, have enlisted a generous percentage of the women of the Philippines.

MODERN TWO-ROOM FLAT... Mestad vn ... WORKS OF MAO ON SHELF An 'Average Man And Family In Peking PEKING (AP) -- Syn Chin- Kang, 28, is employed at Pe- king's Textile Factory No. 2 as a spinner. His wife' Pangwe Hua, is employed at the same factory and each earns 75 yuan a@ month, They have two chil- dren, a boy and a girl, five and three years old. They are healthy and hand- some and they live in a modern two-room flat with kitchen and toilet not far from the factory. They have Chairman Mao's col- lected works on their book- shelf. Syn and his family apparently live the way the party would like all Chinese workers to live, since their home is among the private residences shown by the foreign minister to visiting for- eigners. Questioned, Syn said he paid five yuan (about. $2 Canadian) for the flat monthly, including gas, electricity and central heating. It costs 20 yuan a month to send their 'children to kindergarten; they put 30 to 50 yuan in the bank each month and the remainder--nearly 100 yuan -- is spent on food and clothing They pay no income tax To what extent is Syr typical of the majority of Chi- pese workers? reall' Comparing notes with West- ern residents in Peking and on the basis of observations made during four weeks in China, it appeared that Syn could very well be regarded as an exam- ple of an average Chinese worker in some fields, but not in all WAGES VARY There are workers -- for in- stance, the very hard-working pedicab drivers and some cate- gories of workers in the coal and steel industries--who earn 90 to 100 yuan a month, but most monthly wages appear to be about 60 yuan. Syn and his wife apparently belonged to the upper half of wage earners His home was typical of some Peking homes. Blocks of flats have been put up over large in the periphery Pe- g, and hundreds of thousands of people now are living under more or less the same housing conditions as Syn and his fam- ily But even a larger number is still confined to old, dilapidated one - storey houses in narrow and often ill-smelling strects of old Peking.

Canada was the plying of Indians with liquor in order to get their furs. Bishop Laval of Quebec tried to stop this, even threatening the guilty with excommunication. The French fur traders claimed that they would be put out of busi- ness by the English, if they could not trade at least some liquor to the Indians. At one time Governor Denon- ville of Quebec wrote to Gover- nor Dongan at New York urging him to try to stop his traders from supplying the Indians with Demon rum. Dongan_ replied "our rum doth as little hurt as your brandy and in the opinion of Christians is much more wholesome". The fact. was that in the con- test that was going on between France and Britain for the sup- port of the Iroquois, Denonville was no match for Dongan. Gov- ernor La Barre was even worse, On November 10,. 1686, King James II ordered Governor Don- gan to "protect" the Iroquois. They were capable of looking after themselves. After the Sen- ecas had attacked the fleet of fur-laden canoes, the property of Governor La Barre, he an- nounced publicly that he was going to attack the Iroquois in their own country. He even wrote to the British Governor of New York asking him not to supply the Indians with any guns. LaBarre was warned by one of the French missionaries that the Senecas had heard about the plan to attack. them, and that they were delighted, confi- dent that they would be able to "strip, roast, and eat every Frenchman in the country". LaBarre got no further than the present site of Kingston, Ont., when his men were in such bad shape that he had: to invite the Indians to a peace confer- ence, rather than attack them. The incident was damaging to French prestige. nut nt avon rns aitto TODAY IN HISTORY By THE CANADIAN PRESS Noy. 10, 1965...

Hurricane ships with 250 fine UN Assembly To Debate Red China's Admission UNITED NATIONS (AP)-- Fi Five men left without fanfare in February for India on a mission program and to recommend ways of widening the attack on India's spiraling birth rate. By supplying the five public health and population experts under its expanded technical as- sistance program, the United Nations appeared to endorse, at least indirectly, a controversial birth control campaign that in- cludes distribution of contracep- tive information and devices and some surgical techniques. WAS IN CONFLICT The venture placed the world organization in direct conflict with some member nations, mostly Roman Catholic, who contended it lacked a mandate for such activity. Pope Paul seemed fo be speaking out against just this kind of technical assistance in his address to the General As- sembly Oct. 4. "You must strive to multiply bread so that it suffices for the tables of mankind,"' the Pope told the delegates of 117 nations, "and not... favor an artificial control of birth, which would be irrational, in order to diminish the number of guests at the banquet of life." But an increasing number of nations approve birth control to ease their population problems. Many have-not countries and some industrial ones too, believe mankind will be unable to feed itself unless population is effec- tively controlled and look to the UN for help. The responses of 53 countries to a UN inquiry last year showed widesjread fears rapid population gipwth will wipe out economic and \gri- cultural progress. * These fears cut across politi- cal and ideological lines DEFENDED ACTION Although Pakistan has shed blood with India over Kashmir, it. defended the UN. population control mission to New Delhi and challenged the Pope's views on birth control. Uniit the india mission ihe United Nations had limited its population work to collecting statistics. In 1962 a resolution sponsored by Sweden and 12 other nations, urging UN assis- tance for population control projects, was rejected. Argentina, France, Gabon, Ireland, Lebanon, Liberia and Spain denounced the proposal. Some said it proposed dissemi- nation of birth control devices and information with UN money and called the idea "morally re- pugnant." : France contended the resolu- tion's sponsors feared "the pros- pect of a brutal sharing of riches between the starving and the more fortunate.'* What the assembly declined to reccommend in 1962, the 18-na- tion population commission did earlier this year when it advised UN specialized agencies to pro- vide requested assistance for population control! programs without promoting any particular policies Cloudiness Of Opinion diaris Woe By DON O'HEARN TORONTO--One of the great problems in public affairs today is that of communication. We have seen a = example of this in the federal elect campaign, The main issue facing the country hasn't really been ri- vard's hose, But still we have heard a great deal of talk about this, and little--or at least little that has got through--on the im- portant questions. Ms aalbe a good reason for this. The reason that the questions of the day are so complex is that, with many of them, the leaders don't have any clear opinions. And where they do the complexity makes it diffi- cult to get across the opinions to the public, NON-EXISTENT POLICY To illustrate the problem, Premier Robarts recently made a speech here on national inde- pendence, Mr. Robarts said it was essential that the federal government maintain control of the instruments of economic policy in order to develop na- tional economic policies. Later he said he believed it wrong for any government to attempt to contro] investment in the private sector of the econ- omy, i What does he means by "'con- trol?" Does he mean that action of government shouldn't influ- ence, and purposely influence, investment? If so how do you, or can you, have a national economic pol- icy? In fact how could you even tax? Income and excise taxes and tariffs inevitably influence investment, Mr. Robarts may be quite clear in his own mind as to what his position is on this question, But, if so, he certainly didn't get it across. His speech, in fact, on examination makes him appear cross-purposes with himself. PUBLIC UNINFORMED And, insofar as the public is concerned, it didn't get the meat of the speech at all. For newspaper men in writ- ing it generally took the point that Mr. Robarts had come out against restrictions on foreign ownership in Canada, This was selected because it was a point that was simple and would be readily under- stood by the average reader. This point could be taken from the speech; but it needed a bit of reaching to do so, fer his remarks were very quali- fied. And he himself said the issue tended to be considered as far more important than it should be. However the real marrow of his speech was practically un- reportable because it was not at all clear or well-defined. This problem is an important one today, You realize how im- portant when you are behind a typewriter attempting to be one of the instruments of this com munication.
