i. THE DAILY TIMES-GAZETTC Published by Times-Gazette Publishers Limited, 57 Simcoe St. South, Oshawa, Ont, Page 6 Friday, January 6, 1956 Reds In Malaya Agree To Put An End To Warfare A dramatic announcement has come out of a conference in Malava between Malayan government leaders and the chief of the Communist revolutic naries in that country. It says the Commun- ist party of Malaya has agreed to lay «down its fighting and abandon its pol- icy of guerilla This will be "done, the statement says, as soon as the government has secured complete control of internal security and the lo- cal armed forces. This qualification is, however, a mere formality, since its conditions can quickly be met by the British authorities. This undertaking to put an end to the war with the Communists which has been raging for nearly 10 years will come as a welcome relief to the British authorities. It will also solve one of the problems which successive British governments have had to face since the end of the second world war. During the last 10 years the Malay- an situation has been one of the world's Plan Attack On A tremendous step forward in deal- ing with heart disease, a killer which carries off many people in the prime of life, is announced by the Ontario Heart Foundation. This recently-form- ed foundation is the result of five years of study by a group of special- ists and laymen. For the last two years the study has been widened to include doctors, universities and provincial health authorities. The program, outlined by the foun- dation is aimed at exploring the entire field of heart and blood vessel prob- léms, and carrying the information se- cured to doctors all over the province. The organization links together the heart specialists of the province, and involves 17 research projects in four Ontario universities and their associa- ted teaching hospitals. The important nature of the undertaking is shown by the fact that the federal and provincial goveynments have each made a grant of $100,000 towards it. C. L. Burton warfare. sore spots because of Communist ag- gression. The warfare has been large- ly of the guerilla type, with much jun- gie fighting, and sporadic raids by Communist forces en defenceless vil- lages. It has cost ovsr 20,000 casual- ties in military and civilian dead. It has forced Britain to maintain sub- stantial armed forces in Malaya, at heavy expense to the country. This capitulation of the Communists is undoubtedly the culmination of the splendid work done by Sir Gerald Templar when he was British High Commissioner in Malaya. He did a big job in organizing the country and its community life so as to render its vil- lages secure from Communist raids. He set up local armed forces which have done effective work in rooting out nests of Communists. Now the Communists have agreed to disband their forces, there should be good years of peaceful development ahead of the people of Malaya. Heart Disease has established it as a project worthy of private support by setting up a fund, proceeds of which will go to the foundation. This is a highly significant step in the direction of reducing the heart dis- ease mortality. The plans for carrying information back to the general prac- titioners in their own fields, are far- reaching with teams of specialists meeting with doctors in their own areas, and giving them the benefit of the results of research. These doctors will also be allowed to bring patients to these meetings for examination by the specialists. This determination to attack the problems of heart disease, which is one of the major causes of death in the modern world should meet with wide- spread approval. It may well have very important results in the diagnosis and treatment of the various types of heart disease which are so prevalent today. Essentials For Lasting Peace Tito of Yugoslavia and Nassar of Egypt have been getting together. These two men, rulers of countries with highly strategical locations in the world of today, met in Cairo to talk things over. When it was over, they came up with a statement that both their countries would remain neutral in the ideological struggle which is at the root of the cold war between east and west. Thev both are determined, they say, to keep clear of all alliances, and to maintain strict independence. - In a speech at a dinner in Tito's 'honor, however, the Egyptian prime minister made a statement worth not- ing. He said: -- 'We have made it known to the world * that true and lasting peace is only attain- * able when every country--big or small--is ~ entitled to lead its own life, formulate its own policies and take its own stands. Our . determination to uphold this principle is not derived interpretation of . national = ine and sincere from a narrow but is based on a genu- desire to contribute interests to In- + ternational understanding Editorial Notes = It is reported that air fares to Eu- Fope may drop to $50.

Indeed, his words sound very much like a challenge to Soviet Russia. We believe they would find a resounding echo in the hearts of the people of Latvia, Lithuania, Es- thonia, Poland, Czech-Slovakia, Hun- gary, Roumania, Bulgaria the Ukraine, all of whom have, unwilling- ly, been brought under the heel of the rulers of Russia. Nassar 'in effect is saying that there cannot be true and lasting peace until these countries have returned to them the sovereign- ty of which they have been deprived. Prime Minister Nassar's statement, coupled with his assertion that Egypt is resolved to remain neutral in the cold war, seems to indicate that he has no desire to see his country come with- in the orbit of the Communists. and Bits Of Verse WHAT IS IT?

LETS HAVE MORE WOMEN IN PCLITICS a ATI AOI pings, - > gs ¢ > p 4 go J OTTAWA REPORT Sinclair Gives Travel Advice By PAT NICHOLSON Special Correspondent to The Times-Gazette OTTAWA -- Hon. Jimmy Sin- clair's much - reported trip to Siberia marked his second journey around the world as a cabinet min- ister. He first covered extensive visits to Canadian contributions under the Colombo plan in south- east Asia. These two travels make him the cabinet"s ranking author- ity on that part of the world. They also qualify him as a man who can give advice to those about to make a similar safari -- at least in Hon. Jimmy's opinion. So he recently told how he took Just one pair of shoes and two tropical suits on his last world tour and never needed a shoeshine nor a pants-press in three months. The shoes were of suede; the suits of nylon, price just $39.50 each he disclosed. The story of Hon. Jimmy being a travel expert was read in newspaper by one of his col- leagues: Hon. Stuart Garson, min- ister of justice. He picked up the telephone and asked the minister of fisheries for some more detailed information about the Sinclair sys- tem of simplified safaring. Mr. Sinclair felt duly flattered and re- plied that of course he would be glad to give it. ""Where can I buy nylon suits for $39.50 each?" asked Mr. Gar- son The answer, Jimmy Sinclair told me, is "in New Orleans." The suede shoes are worth a story on their own. Their long serv- ice includes two trips around the world. For comfort, the fast-con- valescing minister is wearing them daily now. They are blue, and rub- ber-soled. They originally cost a mere $3.50 right here in Ottawa I suspect the three bucks were for the box. A.B.C. OF G-G PARTIES This item comes from the hints- to-ambitious-hostesses department. Any hostess with high-flying ideas about keeping up with the Joneses will find it useful. It will be even more useful to the secretaries of those social clubs which the Joneses join Our Canadian Sovernds - general likes his protocol starched and his carpet very red, according to a report from Toronto. His tastes for that something extra may even bring prosperity to one of our less booming industries. : Discussing arrangements for his father's formal visit to a Toronto club, Lionel Massey, secretary to the governor-general, is said to have confided: 'His Excellency likes an awning." This report has caused no little flurry in backward Bytown, where awnings are most commonly seen rotecting the farmers' wares at yward Market. Recalling how Sir Walter Raleigh achieved fame by laying his coat to protect Queen Elizabeth against the mud, the bet- ting boys here are ready to quote odds on which hostess will first sacrifice her mink stole to awn some G-G against the weather. The CBC specializes in creating hot water for itself. It has now produced some steam-heated trou- ble which just fell short of creat- ing an international incident. This was its broadcast on a Sunday night just before Christmas of a specially written radio-play entitled "The Greatest Man in the World." Among many critics, Air Mar- shal Robert Leckie commented that it made him "angry and dis- gusted" to her "such a nauseat- ing parody of the president and administration of a nation we all respect" -- meaning the U.S.A. The U.S. Embassy here did a quick burn at this slap by the Canadian government. For, some Americans here reasoned, if the CBC is controlled by the govern- ment, through a cabinet minister, then the government cannot dis- sociate itself from CBC policy. Be- neath the Stars and Stripes, those diplomats evinced all reaction short of making a formal protest. But sufficient protests have come from Canadians, in the form of letters to MPs. In many cases, copies of these are -- rightly -- being sent not only to the writer's local member, but also to Hon. J. J. McCann, the cabinet minister in charge of the CBC and to some known critic of the CBC such as George Dréw or Tom Goode, who will not just ignore and burn the letter. Some of these writers protest at the lack of consideration towards a friendly nation. Many object to the language, which one writer de- scribed as "actually vulgar and not fit for a decent-minded person to listen to."

Jones Canadian Press Staff Writer OTTAWA (CP) -- The 13 new members of the Senate have listed their political affiliations for the Parliamentary Guide, considered the official handbook of Par- liament. Prime Minister St. Laurent, in making the appointments last July --first in more than two years-- stressed that the new senators were being sent to the upper cham- ber as Canadians, not as adher- ents of the Liberal party. . At that time the majority of the 13 was known to have Liberal lean- irgs or past or present ties with that party. And one of the appointees, Senator John T.

Hydro Plans $44,800,000 Project TORONTO (CP) -- The Ontario Hydro-Electric Power Commission is planning an immediate $44,300,- 000 expansion project to meet the needs of a province-wide economic upsurge. . Hydro chairman Richard L. Hearn, announcing the plans, said they reflect the province's un- abated progress in nearly all fields of activity. Mr. Hearn said power require- ments in the southern Ontario system increased by 14 per cent in 1955 over the previous year, more than double the average long- term rate of yearly increase since 922 "It is now apparent," he added, "that additional capacity will be required to provide a reasonable reserve in 1957 ad 1n958 to take care of such contingencies as low- water conditions, breakdown of equipment and abnormal load growth," The plans call for two more 75, 000-kilowatt units at the Sir Adam Beck-Niagara generating s'ation No. 2 and one 200,000-kilowatt unit at Toronto's Richard L.

NOISY BULLDOZERS Then aitention was directed to filling in the approaches to the bridge and laying sewer pipes a- long the side of what was to be the new Wentworth street. Flee's of bulidozers, grading machines and ditch digging apparatus descend- ed on the quiet scene, The days were made hideous by cacophony of noise which raged on and on as the roadway took shape, was ex- tending to its full generous width and graded to a degree of smooth- ness. Finally, the job was done and we found fresh interest in knowing that at last the street was opened to tratfic, and cars and trucks began to roll along it. The street has, of course, yet to be paved. That work, we expect, will be undertaken the early spring, to provide a smooth hard surface for the stream of cars which will travel over it to and from the General Motors south plant, Now, within the last week or two, the scens =f astivity has changed and the roar of the bulldozers is heard coming from the front of the house. The section between Simcoe street and Ritson road south is now being widened and graded, so as to be ready for spring pav- ing. As we look out of owr front window, we can see the machines at work there, extending still farth- er the usefulness of this new traf- fic artery. LANDSCAPE CHANGING With all of this, our landscape to the west has changed. It does not look like the same peaceful scene with the broad highway in- tersecting the field which used to stretch out before us. And soom, we expect, homies will be built along Wentworth street, and across the field to Sandra street. All too soon, our pleasant rural vista will be gone, and a sub-division of new homes will take its place.
