Plastic Shelters Enable Eskimos To Make Gardens The Oshavon Simes Published by Canadian Newspapers Limited, 57 Simcoe St. S., Oshawa, Ont, bage 4 Monday, November 10, 1958 Mayor Gives His Support To Council-Manager Plan Mayor Lyman Gifford's announced opinion that the time has come in Osh- awa for consideration of a ecouncil- manager form of government warrants the most serious attention of city council, . Oshawa is now a city of nearly 60,- 000 people, It is a multi-million dollar corporation. But it is still struggling along with a form of civic government better suited to a city half the size. It i8 not fair to the elected representa- tives or the municipal civil servants to expect them to continue functioning at peak efficiency while weighted down by a system that the city has outgrown, ! A council-manszger form of govern- rhent would put the city on the same footing as any other great corppration, with a chairman and board of directors (mayor and council) shaping the poli- cies to be put into effect by the gener- al manager (city manager). The people who run for and are elec- ted to municipal office deserve the full- est credit. They give up a vast amount of their time, their energy and their e ability to the affairs of their munici- pality and the well-being of their fel- low citizens, But they cannot be expect- ed to devote every waking minute to these affairs, They have their own livings to make, their own personal affairs to attend to. The point has been reached in Oshawa where the demands on the mayor and council are too heavy. They need help, for their own sakes and for the city's, A city manager willlnot only light- en the burden of council by freeing them of petty routine matters and giv- ing them more time for policy-making, bu' will also ease the work of the city employes by co-ordinating effort and smoothing the channels of administra- tion and execution, A Day Of Remembrance Once it was called Armistice Day, Now it is Remembrance Day, because two more wars have swelled the roll of Canada's battle victims since the monstrous thunder of the guns was tilled on that grey morning in 1918, ! What is it we remember? The mothers, fathers, wives and chil- dren of those who gave their lives so gallantly in a thousand battles around the world since 1914 have their sorrow= ful memories for every day of the year. Tomorrow, November 11, is a particu- lar day, when their private sorrow gives pxtra meaning to a public acknowledge- ment of the sacrifice of brave men, of pride in their bravery and of humble gratitude for what their bravery achiev- ed. The men who served with those who died will remember more vividly than ever tomorrow how the battles were fought and how the little crosses grew in orderly and tragic ranks on the hills and fields of a score of strange lands, from France to Korea, England to Hong Kong. Those who have been untouched by war do not have the daily reminder of loss, the vivid memories of how gallant men died fighting on the land, in the air and on the sea. For these people, Remembrance Day should be a day o dedicatién_-- of dedication to the hopes and the ideals of the men who went forth to battle and whose names are now inscribed on a thousand monu- ments across the land. The soldiers, sailors and airmen gave their lives for such things as decency and honor in re- lations between nations and freedom and integrity for individual human be- ings. They were willing to trade their lives for these things, and did, Those of us who are left can scarcely do less than live by the principles for which they died. Brinkmanship In Cars + "Brinkmanship" is a flippant word to wn describe deadly perils: the act, or art of w---- following a course that is only a short step from disaster. The word was first applied to states- men who appeared to gamble with the pafety of civilization; men who coolly Wok decisions -- perhaps they were unavoidable decisions that moved the world closer to the unimaginable hbrrors of atomic war. But the calm assumption of deadly risks that seem out of all proportion to the desired ends, is not confined to statesmen. "Highway brinkmanship" by individual motorists is so widespread that it seems sometimes to amount to a bational obsession. There is something about the auto- mobile that ' impels many drivers to want to go the limit, or beyond; to overstep the boundaries, merely be- ci.use the boundaries are therc; to stop half way over the crosswalk at inter- sections, to drive at 34 m.p.h! in the city, on the theory that smeeding tick- ets are not issued below 35 mph, to overdrive: headlights; to ride bumper to bumper in the anxiety to get ahead; to take curves at a speed that needs only a patch of ice or a few loose leaves to turn the car into a death cage. Even level-headed and mature indi- viduals will often cut their margin of road safety to the bone, to gain insig- nificant advantages. Men who would not dream of gambling with their sav- ings, or the health of their children will gamble with the lives of their fam- ily by habitually driving right to the edge--right up to, and beyond the lim- its set by law, by common sense, by or- dinary courtesy. 'Elections In The US. According to the public opinion polls, President Eisenhower remains an im- mensely popular figure in the United States, But last week's election results wbuld indicate that U.S. voters, by and large, do not hold a high opinion of his leadership, his administration or his party. Tt was the Republican errors of omis- sion and commission that led to the thumping Democratic victory, rather than any inspiring appeal by the Dem- ocrats. The vagaries of U.S, foreign pol- icy, the administration's reaction to the recession and Old Guard Republican- ism's attitude towards labor all com- bined to disenchant the U.S. electorate. The Democrats in general staged strong campaigns, but they got /substantial help from the Republicans themselves, Even so, there were interesting ex- ceptions to the rule of Democratic vic tdry--exceptions that seem to prove hye shame Times 7, L.

The Harri- man-DiSapio squabble undoubtedly helped to elect Nelson - Rockefeller as governor of New York State--the most spectacular Republican triumph -- but Rockefeller had to have plenty of per=- sonal support to win. There were other Republican victories scattered through the US. (in Arizona, for example) which showed that a strong, lively: can- didate could overcome the obstacles cre- ated by administration in Washington. Rockefeller's win combined with the Knowland debacle in California sharply changes the possibilities of the Republi= can presidential candidacy in 1960.

Tomatoes, corn, peppers, cu- cumbers, beans and other vege- table crops were grown a few feet above the permafrost in the northland this 'year in shelters covered with plastic sheeting in- stead of the conventional glass. The technique is one of the gimmicks introduced by agricul ture department scientists who are helping roll the Canadian farm front northward, NORTHERN EXPERT F. 8, Nowosad of the depart- ment's experimental farms divi- sion is co-ordinator for the vari- ous demands made on northern agriculture, They range from running surveys of reindeer for- age botany to establishing whether a remote radar site can support vegetable gardens. Scientists have worked out a rough demarcation line for the permafrost which tends to cor- respond with the tree line al- though it dips above and below in places and wide patches of per- mafrost have been located below it. The farther north the location, the closer the permafrost is to the surface. Pockets are found in (he northern reaches of all provinces except the Maritimes, Northern farming on any fair- stzed scale seenis certain to be confined to only,limited areas of the Yukon and the Northwest Territories, but garden plot and sideline agriculture -- including livestock and poultry raising--is proving feasible elsewhere. There is the permafrost below and dry, sunny, frost-prone cli mate above during the limited growing season, For instance, near Haines Junction, at Mile 1019 of the Alaska Highway in tests in 1956 indicated an 11-day frost-free period and 41 days free the Yukon's southwest corner, of so-called killing frost. Four main bridgeheads of ag- ricultural research have been es- tablished in the North, miles north of the B.C.-N.W.T. boundary, built in 1947; at Fort Chimo, Que., on the southern shore of Ungava Bay 850 miles north of Montreal, started three years ago and at Inuvik, near the old fownsite of Aklavik in the Mackenzie River delta about 50 miles from the Arctic Ocean, started just recently, "Conditions at Fort Chimo are more severe than at Haines Junc- tion or Fort Simpson," said Mr, Nowosad in an interview, "We can do certain things including mature a grain sop. There are sheep foraging there and goslings flown in from Ot- tawa ripened to plump maturity after a summer on the salt water flats, | Hens lay eggs at Fort Chimo. With eggs imported into the North costing an estimated $2 a dozen Mr. Nowosad speculates that poultry raising in the area may be a paying proposition, par- ticularly for such projects as the $200,000,000 iron-ore project open- ing up 50 miles farther north at Hopes Advance Bay. VEGETABLES POPULAR "The Eskimos love vege- tables," he says. They are hel ing build the simple, econom plastic shelters ~stretched over wooden frames. Depending on the greenhouse crop involved, heat may or may not be necessary. The plastic shelters seem to re- tain the thin supplies of moisture better and are a big advance on another experiment which didn't jell. That was for aluminum reflect. ors, They literally burned up plots, Two plastic greenhouses were tested at Haines Junction this summer and produced the first marketable corn grown North. Results varied among beans, tomatoes and corn--from a small yield of green tomatoes and a few beans in an ordinary plot to bumper vields inside shel- ters, one with heated soll. 'Shallow root crops bave the best growth potential (farther north. Potatoes are grown at Ak- lavik and turnips, cabbage and cauliflower also can be grown. CULTIVATION HELPS Work at Inuvik, a little farther north, shows thay the soil is ster- fle and has to be warmed up by cultivation. One plot produced no peas the first year with the per- mafrost 14 inches away from the surface. Further cultivation drove it to the 30-inch level and a few pods were recovered. It can be driven still deeper. With the right techniques crops can be grown farther north than ever before, Mr. Nowosad said, After soil clearing comes cultiva- tion, followed by suitable crop varieties and essential fertilizers. The two older sub-stations at Haines Junction and Fort Simp- son have been experimenting for some time with cereals, veges tables, ornamental plants for landscaping, flowers, bush fruits, livestock and poultry. New vari eties are sought in research pro- grams, Residents of the Yukon and the Territories are supplied with small test - seed packages for growing in scores of private plots. Mr, Nowosad cites, as an example of northern endeavor, the teacher at Old Crow about 100 miles from the Arctic coast in the northwest corner of the Yukom. Each year he grows a small box of wheat, sheltering it in his house overnight and setting it out the during the day to catch the sun, Flight To Moon Policy Queried pig TG Tivis Tast 'point, of course. is to who retired as Public School in- Old Human Dream hd By JOSEPH MacSWEEN wearing wings.

There now is no need for the judge to pray thus for a convicted mumerer, be- cause the Conservative cabinet will almost certainly forestall this function of the Almighty. But behind this joke, there is anxiety, Are all murderers henceforth to be permitted to get away with "life imprisonment," which in practice means that after no more than 12 years every killer might again be roaming our streets"? No obvious pattern has emerged over the past 16 months in the government's attitude to the death penalty Two men have been hanged for committing sex-murders on young girls aged 8 and 13 respectively. But another man has been re- prieved after conviction for a similar crime against an eight year-old girl in Quebec. One man has been hanged for killing a bank manager while holding up the bank, and another has been hanged for killing a shopkeeper while rob bing his shop. But four others have been reprieved after committing mur- der during robbery CRIMES OF PASSION Four men who killed their wives and one who slaughtered his mistress have been reprieved, and here the government appears to be on thicker ice, approaching the realistic French system of clemency to the perpetrator of a killing commifted in the heat of passion But many people are very un- happy about reprieves granted to murderers who have killed while committing some other crime, It appears to be widely felt that the death penalty should be enforced, even under the most kindly legis- lation, against all those who kill while perpetrating robbery or rape or kidnapping, as well as those who kill in thé attempt to avoid or escape from custody. protect the police and prison warders. A thorough and often bitter re- view of this whole subject was caried out by a joint Senate. Commons committee a few years ago. That committee advocated no change in the law that death is the punishment for murder, the law which the Conservative cab- inet is now changing under the cloak of the Royal prerogative of mercy. Mercy ts a quality not shown by the holdup killers and others who go about their wicked deeds with a loaded gun. And this raises an interesting suggestion, If our government proposes to ask Parliament to legalize its at present improper disvegard for the law of the land, it should at the same time seek to protect the citizenry by rendering less likely the slaughter of innocent persons going about their daily lives, This could and indeed should be done, by providing harsh pun. ishment for those who needlessly imperil the lives of others by carrying such lethal weapons as revolvers. A REAL DETERRENT No law-abiding citizen entering a Canadian bank or store needs to carry a revolver. No law-abiding citizen moving about the streets of a Canadian city or village needs a gun. It would make hold up killings much. less likely to occur if the Criminal Code were to be amended to provide a really stiff sentence for anyone found carrying a gun of any kind, other than bona fide hunters in the bush Probably few robbers set out with the intention of killing. They take a gun to show they mean business. But they use it without premeditation in a moment of panic. A deterrent to prevent law-breakers from the present widespread carrying of guns would probably save very many lives. A mandatory 10-year prison sentence for carrying a gun, bomb, black Jack, knuckle-duster or any other weapon not needed for law-abiding living, would al- most certainly have beneficial ef- fects. It would be the very least the government could do if it pro- poses to perpetuate its policy of minimising executions, FOR BETTER HEALTH Use Care When Buying Socks For Youngsters HERMAN N. BUNDESEN, MD WHAT is the only article of clothing that cannot be launder- ed and 'cleaned? Your shoes, of course This very fact should make it obvious that shoes, and with them socks, play an all-important role in keeping your feet healthy. SOCKS CAUSE TROUBLE Many foot troubles, in fact, aren't caused by shoes, but by poorly fitting and improper socks. Parents that shoes they for their children must fit properly. But they aren't nearly so concerned about the fit of the socks which actually encase the feet they want to protect So let mq pass on a few tips on buying socks BUY THEM LONGER To eliminate pressure on chil dren's caused by tight socks that those you buy youngster are one than his longest generally purchase insist toes make for your half inch longer toe The socks should be capable sl ona patel 90 sure ha of conditions of cold, heat, damp- ness and perspiration induced by the extreme activity of chil- ren, CHECK THREE POINTS They should bc made of a yarn that has the three-fold cap- acity of high absorbency, ade- quate porosity to permit air to circulate around the feet for evaporation of perspiration, and a wicking ability to conduct pers- piration to other portions of 'the sock.

PARAGRAPHICAL WISDOM The realist lives between the pessimist and the optimist, but he is next door to the pessimist and a country mile from the op- timist, The person who says this is the best of all possible worlds has an extremely narrow conception of the range of possibility. "Things rarely turn out as bad as you think they will," said Old Sorehead, "they' usually turn out worse."
