313mm Examiner 16 Bayheld strecL Barrie Ontario wensnsoav NOV 1961 Pua EITTLE Milli YOUVE ll BUSY DliY Doctors House Calls Now Subject Of Debate Refusal of house calls apparently is the policy of more and more North Am erican doctors Not all physicians think this ll good trend But others say its the only way to practice modern medicine Now there is growing debate in the medical profes sion Should doctors stop making house calls and insist that patients come to the doctors office for the treatment of near ly all ills An article in United States magazine started the debate Its time we broke the housecall habit House calls for the most part are outdated as the horse and buggy it said Medical Economics say that with clin ics hospital rounds and committee meet ings on top of office hours doctors are too busy to make house calls Its hard to practice good medicine in most homes and doctors can do much better job in their offices where they can use their laboratory facilities and even call in partner for consultation The New YorkTimes has entered the new controversy and quotes New Jer sey and New York physicians on both sides of the argument The Ladies Home Journal has also taken up the issue but expresses the opinion that it will take 10 to 20 years to outgrow house calls prominent California doctor said Lets face it Present comfort and fin ancial gain are the only things that stop most doctors from making house calls The excuse that you cant examine patient properly in the house is lot of malarky But Medical Economics insists that time after time we hear of doctors who go out on house call only to find the patient needs an examination that be done in the home Suchhouseles waste the patients money And are financially unsound for the doctor because they waste his time Other Editors Viewa REBELLIOUS 0R SLOPPY London Free Press prominent Toronto tailor deplores the current teenage male fad of dress ing like cowboys and says its all Mo thers fault the family clothes budget is lavished on girls It is seldom indeed that high school or college lad is seen in matching jacket and trousers white shirt and tieuOnce you could tell the city boy from his country cousin by the latters attire now they both look as though they ought to be rustling cattle and its no wonder tailors are upset Are blue jeans corduroys and Windbreakers sign of rebellion against civilization or just sloppy dress We leave the ques tion to the sociologists TWO BIG PROBLEMS Cleveland Plain Dealer Man cannot live without fresh water nor can he live with radioactive waste Thiswaste nearly 70 million gallons of it is now stored in closely guarded underground tanks Scientists have come up with what sounds like the perfect solution They will use the radioactive waste to produce the heat necessary to convert salt water into fresh water Dr Gillan researchdirector for the US Office of Saline Water has an The Barrie Examiner Authorized second class all Post omc Department Ottawa nounced that early next year small experimental conversion plant will be built at the Oak Ridge Tenn National Laboratory This plant which will pro duce 250 gallons of fresh water daily is expected eventually to lead to con struction of plant capable of producing million gallonsof fresh water day By 1965 he said such plant could provide use for all the radioactive waste from the Atomic Energy Com missions plutonium producing reactors and for industrial nuclear wastes as well In addition to putting to use the deadly wastes which must now be transferred from tank to tank because no one is sure how long the tanks will last the plan would save money in producing fresh water which could be made avail able at cost of 70 to 85 cents per 1000 gallons less than the cost of conversion at the governments new plant at Free port Tex Detailshnaturally remain to be ironed out but it appears possible that science which gave us the problem of what to do with the dangerous waste in thefirst place may give us the brilliant answer 50 THEY SAY Earl of Home British Foreign Secretary It would be easy for each side to pro duce 500 airplanes and burn them in Daily Sundaya and

NICHOLSON OTTAWA When the sirens sounded the alarm for exer cise Tocsin was Walking along street in the heart of this capital city man ap parcntly recent immigrant rushed out of beer parlour with his eyes popping with fear fSomeaone droppa da bomb he asked me That typified the first lesson of Tocaln Many of us have failed to inform ourselves about Ihe present situation even to the point that some like that scared man did not even know that mock raid was to be staged The greatest single achieve ment of iocsln undoubtedly was to jolt us all info recognis ing the serious nature of the present world situation to show the need for national and even international togetherness and to point out Ihe steps which all of us can and should take to pm fact our families no greatest failure was per haps our sirens Some failed to work one caught fire and jeolt pardised the building on which it stood all seemed too quiet And conditioned by memories of air raids in Britain or France in the Second World War automatically feels sense of relief at the steady hole which then bctokcncd the nil clear the alarm was then given by the rising and fallingl notcwhich we now use for the all clear here PUBLIC SHOCKED The average Ottawsn was shocked into new realisation Hon Howard Greens sincere and relentless fight to achieve nuclear disarmament has sud denly nssumcd its full humane urgency the failure ofintcma tional diplomacy is seen as ap palling Above all one heard the question why since scientists boast that science knows no in ternational borders scientists of the world not be come sufficiently shocked by the misuscs of their skills and staged all international revolu lion against nuclear bombs Fall out shelters remain controversial question to build or not to build The thorlties have wrongly been criticised for not launching public shelter REPLY TO VETERAN Dear Sir with interest did read the letter wriltcn in reply to Strikers Wife lQbeip by Just Veteran Since this man must be at least 34 years old in order In be veteran am surprised at the immature outlook he seems Io have as shown in his letter to Strikers Wife In my letter to the editor of Nov 10 regarding un ionism mentioned that argu mcnts against unions stem from three peculiar dispositions sen timent lack of understanding or greed This veterans letter to me is perfect specimen of lack of understanding With due rcspect to his warrecord this man does not have clue to what he is writing about Al the time of tile Start of War Canada was not directly involved neither was there any direct threat of foreign domina tion The soldiers who died in the Second World War died in an armed conflict started by certain Mr Hitler in Germany it concerned foremost the Eur opean countries and was fought mainlyon European soil and statistics will show that Europ can Nations took the biggest rap HAVE VISION Consequently the men who vol uhtecred on this side of the ocean for the Armed Forces showed that they were endowed with far wider vision than Just Veteran shows us here They realized that ultim ately one part of the world cannot thrive while another part is being choked to death They had more than loyalty to Canada they had loyalty to the world We should all realize by now that nationalism as far as politics and economics are con cerned is gettin to be thing of the past in the same vein Mr Veteran your horizon has to broaden you cannot put fen ces around your country an sit back for things to happen The rest of the world would leave you behind and forget about you Do you realize how much of their national the European Common Mark et countries had to sacrifice in or der to make possible the polit ical and economic achievements theycnjoy todayl Do you realize that the Un ited States and Canada have much more in common th an just their language and their geographical locations more prhbnbly than any other two neighboring countries in the world You write about freedom If political freedom is coupled to economic slavery it does mean thing to me it not may not have occurred to you but horrofrfornralWlhfim only ones that stand between you and economic dictatorship by the captains of industry You want In throwvalf American domination May tell you have the program but federal provincial and municipal governments are surveying their buildings with view to utilising these Mean while the quickest protection for the most Canadians during the greatest number of hours in the week is offered by the fam ily basemenl shelter Prime Minister John Dicfen baker sheltering in his base ment shelter in his Ottawa home was erroneously reported in some sections of the press to have been killed by An imagi nary nuclear bomb at Uplands airport That was an example of the confusion which would be caused by false repelta in real nuclear war REMEMBER LAST WA in fact the planners of exer cise Tocsin supposed that five megnton bomb equal in da alructive power to 5000000 tom of conventional high explosive killed or injured 175000 people in Ottawa or two out of every three residents Quite early in the Second World War 500 Nazi aircraft dropped 500 tons of high explo live and thousands of small in ccndiary bombs on the automo bile and acmenglne plants at Coventry England doing un precedented damage and killing 400 people This terrible raid gave rise to the horrorverb covcnlrated But later the British Air Force hit German cities with IWbomber rnids dropping somethingover 1000 tons of high explosives nnd in cendiary bombs One of these according to Winston Churchill started fire tornado in bu rg which raged through the city with terrifying howl ond defied all human countermeasures The nuclear bomb dropped on Ottawa was 5000 times as powerful as the total bombload of LOWbomber raid but of course its damage was more concentrated It would have caused complete destruction in wider ring in miles across But Prime Minister Diefenhnkcr in his basement fallout shelter seven miles awayshould have had 70vpcrccnt chance of liv ing and supercent chance of remaining unharmed and of course he would have been safe against fallout LETTERS TO EDITO from experience that the maj ority of our unions are as de macratic as any government this cnuniry has ever seen and that they are certainly nutim cricun dominated in the sense that you describe We run our own affairs and we have proportionate voice in all union proceedings Have not the rank and file members of the Mine Mill and Smelter workers prov en that they can handle guys like Mike Soiski and his fol lowers And even when there are few bad characters in some of our unions am no admirer of Hoffa mnd you does that condcmn the whole movement STAND FDR You are concerned with ndvancement of Canada Trying to elevate the
