§ @ THE DAILY TIMES-GAZETTE, Wednesday, June 3, 1058 Editorials Dally Times-Gasette (Oshawa, Whitby), e 57 Bimooe Street South, Oshawa, Ontario by Times-G Publishers, Limited. Oshawa Citizens Joined Heartily in Celebration Oshawa can well feel proud of its Corona- tion Day celebrations. In spite of the fact that circumstances confined the program largely to the evening hours, there was nothing lacking in the enthusiasm display- ed by the people of this loyal community. Whatever fears there may have been that the local observance of the day would be half-hearted were dispelled by the-splendid congregation which attended the religious service in St. George's Anglican Church in the forenoon, and went by the board entirely as the evening events got under way. Seldom, if ever, has so splendid a parade been seen in Oshawa, and seldom have the streets been thronged with citizens eager to watch the parade pass by. The floats were beautiful and symbolic in conception. The military units, the veterans' groups, the Boy Scouts, Girl Guides and other parties in the marching parade turned out splendidly, and the many bands added a martial air to the event. And from Alexandra Park to Memorial Park the route of the parade was jammed with spectators. ' The scene in front of the bandshell in Memorial Park was one which will not read- ily be forgotten. Thousands of people found their way to the park, and enjoyed to the full a splendid and varied program of enter tainment, which reached its climax with the film showing of Her Majesty the Queen as the National Anthem was played. To Alderman R. D. Humphreys, chairman of the coronation celebration committee, and those who worked with him, must go a large measure of thanks and congratulations for a most successful celebration. And to the citizens of Oshawa there must go a special word of appreciation and commendation for their splendid display of loyalty to their Queen. A Day to be Remembered Yesterday was a day which will be re- membered by most of us who live within the British Commonwealth as long as we live. As never before, the ceremonies and the pageantry, the solemnity and the religious atmosphere of the Coronation were brought "into the homes of the subjects of our Queen who was crowned yesterday. When King George VI was crowned some 16 years ago, there were radio broadcasts of the great event. But yesterday, through the magic of television, coupled with the great achieve- ment in aviation, the people of Britain, of Canada and the United States, saw the event as if they had been there, and heard all the wonderful music, and the significanct words, of the ceremonies. For many of us, this will be the last coro- nation we shall see. It was also the first that many of us have seen on the day when it occurred, through the eyes of television. But # was an event the memory of which will Hve with us as long as we may live. It cap- $ured the imagination to gee this wonderful young woman who is our Queen go through the solemn rites and ceremonies, to hear her voice, to see her graciously and smiling- ly acknowledging the plaudits of the great throng which had gathered on the streets of London. So far as the weather was con- cerned, it was a gloomy day. But that gloom was completely dispelled by the glory of the pageantry, and by the welling up of en- thusiasm in the hearts of those who saw the spectacle of the century. ! All that pageantry was born in the tradi- tions which have come down from past ages. It carries with it a heritage of an enlighten- ed monarchy. Yet it has its message for the future, a message of hope and purpose, a message which goes to the hearts of the free people who are our Quen's subjects. And to the children of today, it has given a picture of a self-sacrifice in the public ser- vice which should make better citizens of 'them in the years that lie ahead. Yes, it was a day long to be remembered even by the youngsters of those who listened and watched as the greatest human drama of our age was enacted. Canada's Ships in Coronation Review Canada's contingent of representatives of the navy, army and air force, and the Royal Canadian Mounted Police, made a brave showing .in the coronation procession through the streets of London on Tuesday. It served to show the vast multitude of peo- ple assembled there something of the im- portance of this country as the leading na- tion, next to Britain itself, within the Com- monwealth. There is still another demonstration to be given by Canada's armed forces before the coronation program is completed. On June 15, off Spithead, England, one of history's greatest assemblies of ships will "gail past H.M. Queen Elizabeth in the tradi- tional Coronation review. Proudly taking their stations wil be six ships of the Royal Canadian Navy, a cross-section of Canada's relatively small, but nevertheless expanding sea forces. Editorial Notes We wonder if Naguib ever stops to think that if it had not been for the wise guidance of Britain, there would today be no Egypt. The member of parliament who said that "a farmer has the right to expect his gov- ernment to protect him from disaster" sure- ly does not hold the government responsible for such things as late spring, early frosts, drought, grasshoppers, dust storms, hail, foot and mouth disease and other hazards the agriculturist has to face.

Other Editors' Views CANADA MUST SHOW PATIENCE (Montreal Gazette) By all present indications, President Eisenhower and his Cabinet will be satisfied, for the time being, if they can prevent any drastic increase in tariffs, and if they may: achieve some simplification of the existing' tariff regulations. Probably the unanimous approval by the President and his Cabinet of 8 limited participation in the St. Lawrence Seaway scheme may help produce some greater ac'ion. But even here progress is indefinite. : These delays may tax the patience of Canadians, who may wish more decisive action. But little is to be gained by irritable or petulant complaints. Cana- dians have' no cause to doubt the goodwill of Presi- dent Eisenhower on these two important issues of free trade and the St. Lawrence Seaway. A Bit Of Verse Down by the brook where coltsfoot grows, And cinnamon fern and tangy mint, There is a bank of pure repose As wide as the heart's own continent, And none asks there what the idler sees Staring through space, his body slack; If he is looking for certainties, He will find them under the tamarack.

Holidays are a cherished Canadian institution. Eighty-eight "per cent report that they had holidays last year, and this year hopes run even higher. The familiar picure of the fa- mily car loaded down with grips and camping equipment and chil- dren, off in a cloud of d merriment, seems a fair illustra- tion of a typical Canadian holiday. Forty-nine per cént went away for their holidays last year, to a cabin or cottage, or back home to the farm, to another city or town, or Just a trip. This year exactly as many have already made such Ss, Almost as typical a 8 for the Canadian holiday-maker 'the Regarding holiday plans for this year, peole were asked: "And what do you think you'll do this year -- go away for your holidays or stay home?" And they answered: Go away Stay home No holidays Don't know Another question was put to those who intend to go away, de- signed to make holiday plans more specific: "Would you mind telling me what you plan to do -- go to a cottage, hotel, other city, or what?" That holidays are as varied as the people who take them, shows up in the results: To cottage, cabin or to the country To city or town Travel, or take a trip Stay at a hotel, motel, lodg To.a camp or resort Visit or stay with friends hil, i was the 9 8 gay assortment. Whether for economic reasons, or because of temperament, or a pet project in hand, thirty-nine per cent stayed home for their holidays last year, and thirty-one per cent expéct to do the same this year. Still in the' planning or doubtful stage are another twelve per cent. Saddest people when the days grow long and hot are the twelve per cent last year who did not have holidays, and the eight per gent who think they will not this estion regarding year's holidays: "Holiday time is coming, and we're finding out what people do about them. For instance, last year, did you go away for your holidays, or did you stay home?" These replies show that Mari- timers and Quebecers are least likely to have holidays, that On- tario and B.C. people ate travel- minded, and folk on the Prairies generally stay home: Stayed Did not have or relatives Camping Miscellaneous Don't know Those who plan to go away 49 The miscellaneous answers are "Fishing and hunting", are frequent replies. "Flying", 'Boating', "To the mountains', they say. "On honey- .moon', is a happy thought, Still others are serious-minded -- 'to a shrine', "a religious conference' or. '"'school"'. One man is going to "clear trees from lot", and anoth- er canny soul plans to "work dur- ing vacation". And then there are those who prefer winter holidays and go "skiing", or 'to the tropics in winter". What . about the stay-at-homes? Besides regional and possibly, economic differences, another fac- tor is age. Up to forty, holiday hopes are bright. But people fifty and over do not have holidays quite as often (15 per cent did not last year), and those who do, more frequently than not spend them 2 quietly at home. World Copyright Reserved. READERS VIEWS Some Suggestions On City's Traffic The Editor, The Times-Gaz"'" Sir.--Congested traffic in rush hours especially, is becoinin, i..- creasingly difficult and dangerous in Oshawa, This has been worked out satis- factorily in small towns with a similar problem. 3 Never at any time within two blocks of the main intersection was arking permitted, outside of de- ion trucks about their business. Lights for eight blocks on the main streets (in this case King and Simcoe), all red or green need while all cross street traffic is stopped. Then for eight blocks all is still one way Problem while cross-traffic moves. If the one street has more than the other, time it longer. The longer timing works won- ders. One would not have to have a light on each of these eight corn- ers for a sign could be used to state no moving on the cross-wise when the lights are green for the op- posite street. Oshawa could do with more lights. This traffic problem is Osh- awa"s baby and it is crying for a new formula. Sincerely, PEARL SEALE. 165 Annis Street, Oshawa, June 1, 1953. SWEDES IN KOREA STOCKHOLM (CP)--A fresh con- tingent of 20 persons has just left for the Swedish Red Cross Hospi- tal at Pusan, Korea, where about 150 Swedes now are working.

HAPPY DAY INVERCARGILL, N.Z, (CP)=-- RESIDENTS OF Athol in southern New Zealand were so delighted to get a new bridge across the Ma- taura river that they marked the opening by holding a dance on it. Meanwhile the remains of the old bridge provided a bonfire on the shore. DIPLOMATIC OFFICIALS WOODCHURCH, England (CP)-- The Coronation celebrations com- mittee of this Kent community an- + nounced there are so many pretty girls in the village "it is impos- sible to choose a beauty queen." MAC'S MUSINGS Today we think of the Words of Rudyard Kipling, "The tumult and the shouting dies, The captains and the kings de- part", Because the coronation now Is over, and the grand Pageantry. is something We can all remember For many years to come, But as we listened to the Broadcasts of the event, And some of it on The television screen, There stood out one great And predominant thought And that was one of ! Complete and unbounded Admiration for the Marvellous personality Of our beloved Queen. We can. hardly appreciate The tremendous mental And physical strain that Must have been imposed On Her Majesty by that Four hours long ceremony In Westminster Abbey, The fatigue which most People would have felt Before it was ended, and After it all, to have to Face the two hour drive Through London's streets, And yet, in spite of it, Our Queen was radiant, Smiling and self-assured, As she accepted the great Ovation of her subjects, And her voice was clear And calm when she spoke To her people the world Over in her broadcast. That took queenly courage Of the higher order, Brought out the qualities Which came down to her From her noble ancestors, And her long training for * The role she now occupies. Truly the love of her People for their Queen Overstepped all bounds In yesterday's pageant, Yet it was love which She fully merits by her Devotion to the tasks Now placed upon her. CORONATION HOTEL FIRE * WINDSOR, nt. (CP)--Fire sta- tions were prepared Tuesday for the usual rash of holiday fires as schools, banks, offices and busi- nesses closed down for the Corona~ tion Day celebrations. 2 Late In the day they were still awaiting their first call, - Then the alarm sounded. The fire was at the Coronation Hotel. The small blaze in one room was extinguished before they arrived. Want to buy, sell or trade? -- A Classified ad and the deal is made.

The highly respected Anglican bishop has publicly endorsed the stand of the Lord's Day Alliance that the wording of Sunday sport votes should be changed. He agrees ft should specify what sports are Yo be played. The criticism, of course, is that the present word- ing is too broad, giving municipal councils blanket powers to say what or what not shall come under the heading of sport. The Anglicans, who are noted for not being cranks on matters of this kind, have a strong voice and the government will probably some attention to this compay pay some attention to thiscom- pay. Some attention to this com- pi 3 VARIED INTERPRETATION Authority over the sports was purposely left with the municipali- ties. They know best what local conditions demand--and relieve the province of criticism. There have been some odd re- sults, however. Resort towns, such as Crystal Beach , have classified some strange activities as sport. Games along the midway, for in- ce. It is doubtful if the province would go so far out on a limb as to name the eligible sports but it might compro- mise. On another sports front, the Tor- onto baseball Leafs are in trouble over alleged lotteries. Charges hav been laid against the club for giv ing away automobiles and other prizes. This is another outgrowth of the unmanageable situation where the federal government lays down the law (through the Criminal Code) ia the province has to enforce Most of the time there isn't much attempt to clamp down on lotteries. Under the provisions of the code, (where the only exemptions are for agricultural fairs and for prizes under $50), it would be an almost impossible job to wipe them out. There are hundreds of them going on continually, sponsored by ser- vice clubs, churches, theatres and other groups. Every now and then there is a token enforcement move. The one against the ball club is thé most recent. STILL PROVINCE In Sudbury (where enforcement is stricter than in most cities) a new dodge to get around the law got short treatment by the attor- ney-general's department. When ticket sellers there located on railway property, and therefore sald they couldn't be touched, Dep- uty Attorney-general C.R. gave a quick and forthright ruling.
