2 [| he Oshawa Times Published by Canadian Newspapers Limited, 57 Simcoe St. S., Oshawa, Ont. Pager Monday, November 3, 1958 zh 1 u. S. Ports Preparing ' For Seaway Ae : U.S. ports-at the west end of 'the Great Lakes-St. Lawrence waterway are making ambitious preparations for an 'increase in commerce as a result of thé 'opening of the Seaway. Duluth, for example, is building » $10 million pub- licly-owned deep sea terminus and thefe is some talk about highway and rail developments between Duluth and Winnipeg. The Duluth plans clearly affect the Ontario Lakehead. The Sudbury Star is alarmed enough to make the follow- ing comment: | The biggest question of all--what of the future? Is Canadian trade west of the Lakehead to be diverted to the port of Duluth? Will deep sea trade for the Canadian West be routed through Duluth? Cold statistical facts show that the distance between Winnipeg and the nearest trans-shipment point on the Great Lakes will be shortened by more than 100 miles. There is a statistical and practical advantage that cannot be overlooked. The Lakehead has already seen an oil pipeline run south o" Great Lakes from the Canadian oilfields. This mdde it unnecessary for tankers to use the Lakehead port and facilities to han- dle Canadian oil. Is the Lakehead now to isee hillions of dollars worth of Ca- naflian productivity diverted to the United States? Fresh before us is the report of the Borden Commission on Energy Resour- Commerce ces. Among its recommendations is one which has to do with the export of a great Canadian natural resource -- na= tural gas, Because of Canadian gas re- quirements there is a recommendation that the governm'nt revoke an under- taking given by the Liberals in 1955, This undertaking was that Canada be allowed to export at Emerson, Man. up to 200,000,000 cubic feet of gas daily for 25 years, In the discussion which went on in connection with the export was the thought that Eastern Canada would be buying Canadian natural gas by way of a U.S. pipeline. The all-Ca- nadian pipeline put an end to this spec- plation. But Dominion government and Ontario government money went into the project. It meanc that Canadians have control of their product from well to consumer, What will be the situation if Canad- ign wheat, for instance, moves through the United States tc ship "bottoms" at Duluth? And what about all of the other Western Canadian products, also beef cattle, that could be shipped via the U.S. in bond, to save transportation costs over 100 miles? It could happen. The Lakehead without the Great Lakes shipping would take on a ghost- ly appearance. The economy of the province would be affected. The Do- minion governmen and the Ontario government might take a look at this Winnipeg-Duluth proposition. to see just what is entailed. Dam For A Tinker President Nasser of Egypt seems to be highly pleased with the deal he has negotiated with the Soviet Union for a loan to be used in building the highly- publicized Aswan Dam. But all he has dehe is to shove his country deeper info debt, without greatly improving hig chances of getting the dam built. The Soviet loan is for 400 million ropbles, At the official rate of ex- change, that amounts to $100 million, but in actual buying power, particul- arly 'in respect to materials and mach-, ingry required for a project such as the Agwan Dam, it is closer to $50 million, Nasser will buy at the unofficial rate but repay at the official rate, plus in- tetest, fhe interest rate on the Russian loan is lonly 214 per cent, and a great deal of:fuss has been made about the gener- osity of the Russians both by United Agab Republic propagandists and by the Russians themselves. But Nasser appears to have conveniently forgotten thafi the World Bank offered him much mére favorable terms. The period of th Soviet loan is 12 years, which dns that Nasser will have to pay back in principal and interest 460 mil- lian roubles. Had he accepted the World B4nk offer, backed by the United States arid the United Kingdom, of $400 mil- lion, he would have repaid less than $420 million; the rate of interest would have been 4% per cent, but $70 of the $400 million would have been an out- right grant. Cust of the Aswan project has been estimated at $1300 million. Nasser hop- ed to finance it through revenue ob tained from Suez Canal tolls. He has found the tolls less than he expected. The Soviet loan does not make much of a dent in the full costs of the dam, To complete the financing Nasser must either place a tremendous and probab- ly impossible stvzin on UAR resources or seek still more outside capital. And he has not yet even negotiated an agreement with the Sudan concerning the Sudanese territory that will be flooded when the dam is completed. The United States and Britain with drew their support of the World Bank offer when Nasser mortgaged Egypt's cotton crop to the Russians for military weapons, He has pl.ced another mort gage with the Russians, and may have to go still deeper into debt to them. He talks about independence from "imper- ialist powers" while he sells hir coun= try and Syria to the most aggressive imperialists in the world today. It will be interesting to watch the Arabs' re- action when they finally realize that they have been sold for a tinker's dam. | Clipping The Tourists Barbers in Niagara Falls, according toa news report, are considering rais- ing the price of haircuts to $1.50, be- calise "U.S, tourists are used to higher prices." ' We are proud to know that there are such thoughtful and far-seeing people in.the Canadian community. They want the Americans to feel right at home, to realize that they are not slumming in a "dollar colony, to appreciate that Canadians too can recognize a fast buck when they see it. As a gesture of international friend- ship the barbers' idea can scarcely be bettered. The price hike would tend to bring the two countries closer together, bound by ties of mutual suffering. As théy get clipped, the Americans will be abje to ponder the warning thought that Canadians are fine, simple people just like themselves. With such splendid motives to inspire them, we doubt very much if the Ni- agpra barbers have given any thought atrall to the extra income they will be She Oshawa Times T.51..

SUNDAY LAW OBSERVANCE (Toronto Star) The attornev general of Ontario should issue a statement clarifying the circumstances under which he will or will not sanction prosecutions under the Lord's Day Act. A statement of this nature was invited about 10 years ago by Hon, Dana Porter, who was then at torney-general, but there is some une certainty as to whether the present ate torney-general is following the princi ples outlined at that time, Bible Thought My yoke is easy and my burden is light. --~Matthew 11:30. The burden of right and decent liv- ing is light coinpared with the load of ime and sin, THE PLAY LOOKED GOOD REPORT FROM THE UX. New Agency Site Stirs Argum Correspondent The Oshawa Times. LONDON -- Some recent events in London have posed the question to whether an inter- change of official visits at the top level, or international sport, is most ducive to the develop ment of goodwill and understand- ing between the people of nations. On three different occasions I watched a state procession, with all its pomp and Jancyly, fo past, with President Theodor ss of the German Federal Republic as the distinguished visitor being ven the highest of honors -- of- cially. But, as has already been noted in these columns, the large crowds lining the streets remained impassive and unre- sponsive. There was not a single cheer, not a ripple of appiause as I saw him driven past the crowds on Whitehall, Fleet street and the Victoria Embankment. There seemed to be a grim, fixed look on the faces of the people there. One. could not help reaching the conclusion that the British public is not yet ready to extend any kind of welcome to the represen- tative of the country that fised to be Hitler's Germany. STRIKING CONTRAST In great contrast was the scene I witnessed at the Wembley Sta- dium the following day when a team representing Soviet Russia in soccer football piayed against England's international team. There were 100,000 people jamm- ed into this great stadium. Every team was sold lopg ahead of QUEEN'S PARK Two-Year Council Terms Questioned By DON O'HEARN Special Correspondent to The Oshawa Times TORONTO--One of the big real- estate promotions these days is in resort and vacation property. It may stem from Florida de- velopment -- and the boomers there who are merchandising subdivisions with the same meth- ods P. and G. uses to sell soap. Their full-page and full-color ads are known to everyone with 20 cents to spend for a magazine. And recently the same type of selling has been evident here with resort developments in vari- ous areas of the province, PUBLIC PROFITEERING There perhaps is nothing wrong with these. Hon. Bill Nickle some time ago said he was gol to look into them. And as ing has been heard from him since presumably they passed inspection -- or at least there was nothing Bill could find. But the "pitch" being what it is the public naturally has its questions. And ome of them is whether these companies are profiteering out of the public domain. Whe- ther they are dealing in Crown lands, 4 The answer to this is no. They aren't. Despite the fact some huge tracts of land are concerned--a current one involves 5,000 hcres in Haliburton County--and that these are often in what is largely wilderness country, they are not Crown land. They all involve lands that were granted by the Crown many, many years ago. A great many of them are old railway lands, that were given out to promote development, As such they are out of gov. ernment control, BUYING PRESERVES This also explains an apparent contradiction that may be puz- zling some people. This concerns a statement Pre- mier Frost made two years ago in the Legislature. In it he said the government wouldn't countenance any further holding of private fishing and hunting preserves. At the time, however, he didn't explain that this could only apply to lands the Crown controlled. The only effective step the province has been able to take about private fish and game hold- ings has been to try and buy them up. It -has been doing this as the holdings come on the market. FOR BETTER HEALTH How Can You Best Help The Stuttering Child? HERMAN N. BUNDESEN, M.D. If your child stutters, chances are you may be at least partially to blame. Stuttering probably is our most puzzling speech disorder. Even after long years of investigation, doctors _ still aren't in complete agreement about what causes it or how best to treat it. START EARLY Just about all cases of stutter- ing begin before the age of six, although some children aren't af. fected until the seventh or eighth year. First symptoms in virtually every case is an involuntary pro- longation or repetition of sounds or syllables, Or there mav be periods of silence when it ap- that the speech mechan- "freezes" in its attempt to produce sounds. he exerts more muscular effort, he tries to get on with the word more quickly. BECOMES WORSE He becomes tense, insecure, he's anxious about his speech. But the more he tries to con- trol his speech, the worse his stuttering becoines. Soon it is a real struggle. He begins to fear words and even speech itself. Not only does he try to avoid speaking, but eventually he tries to avoid situations which will require him to talk. QUESTION AND ANSWER A. Reader: Is coconut milk good for the eyes? Answer': Coconut milk is rich in Vitamin A, and Vitamin A is nec- essary for protection of the eyes and skin and to help guard against infection, Now the child himself, in al- most all such cases, is unaware of his difficulty, Moreover, be cause he is unaware of it, he is unconcerned about it. The Jepenitions are easy and effort- 88. SIGN OF DISORDER .. Doctors will tell you that a speech disorder exists when the listener pays more attention to how an individual speaks than "to what he has to say. And this is precisely what most parents do the moment a child begins to show signs of stuttering. Right away they begin to try to "cor- rect" the difficulty. They persistently interrupt a child to advise him to 'Talk slow- ly," or to "Start all aver again." Other favorite bits of "advice" are "Take a deep breath before speaking," and "Think before saving anything." PARENTS' WARNING Some parents are even so un- thinking that they bluntly warn their youngsters to 'stop stut- tering." Thus the unconcerned young- ster consclously becomes a "stut- terer."" His speech is unsatis- factory to his parents and this hurts bitterly. His obvious reaction is to no- tice the previously unnoticed hesitations. In an effort to stop them, to cover up this hesitancy, BYGONE DAYS 15 YEARS AGO Oshawa Minor Hockey Associa- tion held its first organization + meeting. Officers elected were: president, A. W. Armstrong; 1st vice-president, Harold Luke; 2nd vice-presideiit, Lew Beaton; sec- retary, Vic Burr; treasurer, Sid Ferguson. Dedicated at an impressive ceremony, the mammoth Victory Loan Thermometer was locat- ed in front of the local post office to record the progress of the Fifth Loan in Ontario County. The objective was $4,500,000. Grand Master, Byron Dundas, of London, Ont., was present for the Installation of officers of Cor- inthian Lodge, No. 61, I00F. Pedlar employes contributed $280 or 2.800 quarts of milk to Milk-For-Britain Fund. A. E. Storey, well known native of Whitby, retired from the Ca- nadian National Railways.' An outstanding event, the St. George's Fall Fair, arranged by the Guild of the church, was held. Mrs. F. J. Rundle, president, wel- comed the guests and Mrs, F. W, Cowan opened the Fair, PARAGRAPHICAL WISDOM The physicist: who says space doesn't exist evidently hasn't seen inside his head. A magazine article begins, 'Authorities on women say . . ." That's as far as we read. "The reason it doesn't hurt a child to fall as much as it does an adult is that the child relaxes his muscles," says a physician. Another reason is that the child doesn't have as far to fall. It's a pity that when the na- tions declare peace on one an- other, which the; often do, the don't vigorously follow throu, with appropriate action as they do when they declare war on one another. Dear World Sdnity: Having a miserably confused and frustrat- ed time. Wish you'd return. Nine Species Of Big Game WINDERMERE, B.C. (CP) -- Nine species of big game are of- fered hunters in this East Koot- enay hunting paradise. Lovers of thin air can chase big horn sheep and Rocky Moun- tain goats in the heights of nearby mountains. On the lower slopes giant grizzly bears roam. Varieties of deer and elk are common. : Forty registered guides in this town 90 miles west of Calgary are almost booked up for the sea- son. Besides many United States hunters, sportsmen from Eastern Canada also come here for shoot- ing thrills. The day of the hunter starts before dawn with bacon and hot cakes whipped up by a vet- eran woodsman, weather pro- phet, tracker, story - teller and to the that inhabit autumn-colored for- ests. y ents time, at prices ranging as high as $7.50 a seat. When the Russian team came on the field, a great roar of wel- ted it. There was sus- ause for two or three minutes. This great cross-section of the British sporting public was letting the Russian team know that it was welcome in Britain, Sportsmanship transcended all thoughts of international differ- ences in the political field. NOTHING BUT GOODWILL The same feeling persisted throughout the game. Every bit of sparkling play by the Rus- slans was received with applause and cheers just as great as those which greeted the cleverest move of the English team. There was nothing but goodwill towards the visitors from the Soviet Union. Maybe there is a moral in this somewhere. It does at least show that an interchange of visits in the realm of sports can do, perhaps, more to promote great- er yadetstanding and goodwill than visits at the highest diplo- matic levels with which the mass- es of the peopie are obviously not in sympathy. "More than 20000 Americans over 85 are stil working," says a statistician. Moral: If you don't quit working before you are old, so strongly that you gan't break It.
