Simeoe Street South. Oshawa, Ustario Ontario Industrial Growth Proceeds at Great Pace A striking picture of the industrial ex- pansion which has taken place in Ontario during the years since the end of World War II is seen in the report of the On- tario Department of Planning and De- velopment for the year 1952, Produced by the trade industry branch of the de- partment, it presents some striking figures regarding the establishment of new industrial plants in the province. This growth has been particularly marked in the last four years. In®1949, 47 new industries were establishe.. in On- tario. In 1950, the number was 78, in 1951 it was 92 and in 1952 it rose to 125. While some of these were possibly small indus- tries, there were many of a major charac- ter. It is striking to note, however, that of the 343 new industries coming to On- tario in the last four years, 135 were established by Canadian concerns, and the remaining 2808 by British, United' States and European firms, Of these 134 had their origin. in the United States and 67 in the United Kingdom. It is therefore apparent that capital in these countries is well aware about the opportunities for profitable investment in industry in Can- ada, to perhaps a greater extent that we ourselves, although the proportion of Canadian concerns establishing new plants is decidedly encouraging. Another fact revealed in the report is the trend towards greater decentraliza- tion of industry in Ontario. In 1949, 66 per cent of the new industries located in the Greater Toronto Ontario and 84 per cent elsewhere in the "province. In 1950, the figures were reversed, two-thirds of th new industries going to places outside the Toronto area. In 1951, 78.6 went out- side the Toronto area and only 26,6 to that part of the province. And last year, the proportion was about the same as in 1951. That is all to the good. The dispersal of industries to small communities in On- tario is good, not only for them, but also for the Toronto area, with its vast amount of overcrowding and housing shortage. This is a trend which should be encourag- ed, in order to give'a much better balance to Ontario's industrial structure. Horticultural Society Does Well The Oshawa Horticultural Society is this year showing a®great increase in activity which augurs well for the beauti- fication of the city. The program of civic beautification which has been completed this year is the most extensive that has yet been undertaken by the society, which set aside $450 from its funds for that, purpose, Of this amount, $200 came in the form of a grant from the city council to which the directors of this society added an additional $250 from the money raised by its own efforts. This is an indication of the earnest desire of its members to play their part in the beautification of the city In another direction, the work of civic beautification is being helped and en- couraged by the Society. Its special flower shows have revealed that it has given as- sistance to scores of local people in the: culture of flowers, which make their ap- pearance in local gardens and help to make this a city beautiful. The Iris Show which was held on Saturday was a splen- did example of this. It revealed that scores of local people have been stimu- lated to grow the many new and exquis- itely lovely modern varieties of iris, and that: their skill in producing excellent quality bloom has been developed to a marked degree. The same was true of the recent Spring Flower Show and the Tulip Show. And it is likely that an even finer demonstration will be given when the Society's Rose Show is held in three weeks' time. The Horticultural Society is to be con- gratulated on the splendid work it is doing, particularly since its directors and officers are citizens of Oshawa who are giving freely of their time, ability and energy in carrying.on the program which it 'has adopted. Migration from United Kingdom Canada is keenly interested in the mi- gration of citizens of the United Kingdom to other parts of the British Common- wealth. It is the hope of this country that a larger proportion of those who seek to establish themselves overseas will come to Canada, which is in dire need of more immigration from the British Isles, The report of United Kingdom migra- tion for 1952, issued by the U.K. Informa- tion Office in Ottawa, shows that while 1 ere has been an increase in the number of British people coming here, Canada is still receiving less than 25 per cent of the total migrants leaving there. In 1952, 44,000 Britons migrated to Canada, an increase over the 33,900 who came here in 1951, But in the same year, 111,000 migrated to Australia, New Zealand, South Africa and other Commonwealth countries, Of these, 52,500 went to Editorial Notes It is reported that Egypt is to become a republic. That will, of course be a means of making the dictatorship of recent months a little more legal. Now that the Coronation is over, in a few days we will be told whether we are to have an election in August or later in the year.

It is somewhat surprising that Canada, the nearest of the overseas dominions to Britain, and the senior partner of all the dominions, should attract less than 25 per cent of all the British people seeking to make new homes within the Common- wealth. With the opportunities for suc- cessful settlement which' exist in this country, and the interest which British people express in Canada, it is surprising that the great majority of them seek lo- cations in other lands. One reason may be that the British people are well aware of the housing shortage in Canada, and for that reason many migrants shy clear of this country. So it would seem that the housing problemwill have to be solved before Canada can secure its fair propor- tion of British migrants. Other Editors' Views MISSIONS TO CONTINUE IN INDIA (Peterborough Examiner) The new Indian attitude toward missions will alter the course of their work but it does not lpok as though that work would be stopped altogether. It does appear that in future the preaching side of missionary work will be in the hands of Indian Christians; can we find any serious fault with that. We must rid ourselves of any lingering shreds of Bible Imperialism which impedes our concept of modern India. AR Bit Of Verse BEETHOVEN Ideas for his symphony stirred recalling sounds of yesterday; Othér hopes he remembered, heard and charted a smooth way. Hope sprang like a fountain to squander its brightness and cover the green Valley of his mind, to wander, leap and wear itself lean. Bright notes spoke and awoke, artist and artistry blended, Out from silence, like moving smoke, melodies descended.

In other respects, Coronation Day is now history. And ex-Bat- tery Sergeant-Major Brooke Clax- ton is in charge of a corporal's ard of cabinet ministers hold- ne the fort of government. Prime ter St.. Laurent will return from London later this week, and before its end he is expected to tough off the federal general elec- tion campaign by announcing the dissolution of the unlamented 21st Parliament. Although Canadians traditionally often vote one way provincially and another way federally, eyes here are rivetted on the elections being held in Manitoba and British Columbis today and Tuesday. BLUE BLUE-NOSES Although Premier Angus Mac- donald once again won the elec- tion in Nova Scotia, his reduced looses the federal Liberals' trend towards centralized government, his win at the polls is not regarded even by Liberals as an endorse- ment of the St. Laurent govern- ment. More significant was the Con- servatives' clean sweep of the seats included in the federal riding of Resources Minister Winters, who went down from Ottawa to campaign in that district. In Manitoba the Social Creditors may, it is thought, establish a solid bridgehead in the provincial legislature where they now hold no seats. Such success would give a fillip Tuesday to the confidence of their colleagues in British Col- umbia, where Premier Bennett is expected to be returned to power, this time with an over-all major- ity. Social Credit supporters here ex- ct him to get anything up to oor the 48 seats. Even opponents of Social Credit grudgingly admit he is likely to increase his present strength of 19 seats. British Columbia above all wants a stable government, and seeing the Socreds as the only party likely to attain an over-all majority, ob- servers here expect the province to give sit to him. The cynical "over to you' retort of the Federal Justice Minister Garson, in reply to B.C.'s request for federal aid in solving the Sons of Freedom problem, will not help the Liberal cause in that province. FREEDOM FROM THE SONS It was the federal government who admitted the Doukhobors to Canada; it was the federal govern- ment who accorded them special privileges not enjoyed by all other Canadians. So it is unrealistic of the federal government now to try to wash its hands of the Sons of Freedom, and sympathy must go out to the Socred government in its attempt to rid the province of this unassimilable element. The new fear in which this poli- tico-religious Social Credit move- ment is held in Liberal circles right across. Canada is high- lighted by the current attempt to rattle the bones, now long dead and buried, of the ghost of the early Social Credit doctrine. The movement has been giving competent and honest government to Alberta for years; against this background of happy experience, many people here think that the "awful threat of Social Credit to- talitarianism" is unlikely to be taken seriously by the Ordinary Joe who wants free enterprise government by practical and God- fearing Ordinary Joes. 70 Canadians Collect Million In Sweepstake By THE CANADIAN PRESS "How do you like that? We avin a cool $140,000 in the sweepstakes and I'm left speechless. But my wife just takes it matter-of-factly and sticks to her housework." That was Thomas Fyfe's com- ment after he won $140,000 with an Irish Hospital sweepstakes ticket on the 174th running of the Epsom Derby Saturday. He was one of more than 70 Canadians who raked in about $1,000,000 on the race. The big payoff went to three On- tario persons, including Fyfe, a Scottish-born office manager with an electrical products firm in Tor- onto. The three held sweeps tickets on Pinza, ridden to victory in the Derby by Sir Gordon Richards. Altogether, the thundering hoofs of the 28 derby thoroughbreds kicked back $576,000 to seven On- tario persons holding tickets in either the Irish Hospital sweeps or the Quebec Army and Navy sweep- stakes. They had tickets on Pinza, lars in consolation priz 'Polio Serum Is Rare Stuff TORONTO (CP)--The, supply of gamma 'obulin, protective serum against infantile paralysis, has been frozen by the federal govern- ment and there will not be enongh for widespread us in Ontario this year, Dr. W. T. Must rd said Sat- urday. : Dr. Mustard, chairman of the medical advisory committee of the Canadian Foundation for Polio- myelitis, told a committee meet- ing that gamma globu now 1s the second-place Aureole and Pink Horse, which ran third. Many other Canadians picked up consolation money of $2,000 or so to boost the total to $1,000,000. Winners in the Irish Hospital sweepstakes: $140,000--T. J. Fyfe of Toronto, Mr. and Mrs. Ross Lent of Bramp- ton and William Robertson of Mim- ico, a Toronto suburb. $56,000--Evans Winters of Ham- ilton, John Wuilty of Bluewater, Ont., 50 miles west of Owen Sound, and Janet Sporleder of Regina. 27,000--W. P. (Paddy) O'Motte, Vancouver, Winners in the Army and Navy sweepstakes: \ $46,000--Egide Labrecque of St. Marguerite, Que. $27,000--Ross Asselstine of Tor- onto. . $17,000--John MacDonald of Fort William. : : Besides the major prize win- nings, Canadians received $107.660 for drawing horses, $104,000 in res- idual awards and thousands of dol- Laboratories, Toronto, and that federal medical authorities will dispense of the entire supply, about 5,000 doses. Sax He said the inability of putting gamma globulin to wide use is due to difficulties in production rather than a lack of blood. ° "The actual amount the federal government will have to dispense will protect no more than about one pcr cent of the children in Tor- onto," he said. DIES OF BURNS PORT COLBORNE (CP)--An- thony Sozio, 31, of Niagara Falls, N.Y., died in hospital here Satur- day night of injuries suffered May being produccd at the Connaught 21 when a can of turpentine blew MAC'S MUSINGS It is a wonderful thing To realize that Oshawa's Main industry has in The ranks of its workers Over 1400 employees Who have served with it For over 25 years and To find these veterans Honored by the company For their long service. The dinner given to GM Employees who have completed quarter of a century Of service has become An annual institution But each year the number Year Club members Grows larger, until they Form a large proportion Of the company's workers. A record of that kind Is a tribute to beth the Company and to the workers Who have attained the Goal of 25 years service, And are still carrying on In the firm's employ, and Playing a large part in The success being enjoyed By Oshawa's chief industry. The fact that the company Has this hard and loyal Core of experienced and Skilled craftsman engaged In its many departments Is one reason for the Success which it enjoys, Because such a record Breeds loyalty to the Firm, and endows workers With a determination To put quality first in All they have to do, And that is important In the auto industry. READERS VIEWS Protests U.S. Flags Flown In Parade The Editor, The Times-Gazette, Sir, May I voice a word of pro- test against the company who dis- played two American flags on its float in the Coronation Day parade on Tuesday evening. Why, oh why, do Canadians from coast to coast feel it is nec- essary to fly the American flag? Why they do is just as puzzling to the American who sees it as it is to many Canadians. Certainly they were out of place in a Cor- onation Parade. Let us pray that we may al- ways be on good and friendly terms with our American cou- sins. But when it comes to fla@s let them wave their own as we proudly wave ours. Yours truly, 1953. reader. June 5, UN Will Meet If Truce Is Signed OTTAWA (CP)--The United Na- tions general assembly will auto- matically be called into session by External Affairs Minister Pearson should the truce talks at Panmun- jom result in an armistice, S. F. Rae, secretary to Mr. Pearson, said Sunday night. "The position is that under a resolution of the assembly passed at the conclusion of this part of the seventh (last) session, if there is an armistice in Korea, the pres- ident is requested to recall the as- sembly," he said in an interview. Mr. Pearson, president of the UN general assembly, would thus auto- matically recall the deliberative body, Mr. Rae said. up during a fire. The fire occurred at a summer cottage at Pleasant Beach, four miles east of here. Sozio was sprayed with the flam- ing liquid. $ ; DAILY SCHEDULE { It is the program of our time , . .
