The Oshavon Times Published by Canadian Newspapers Limited, 57 Simcoe 5t, 5, Oshawa, Ont, Page 4 Monday, December 29, 1958 Giveaways Don't Solve Wheat Surplus Problem During the posiwar years Canada has become accustoméd to going into the new year with a huge surplus of wheat on its hands, The export record was somewhat better during 1958, but & substantial pert of the Improvement ean be attributed to shipments In aid of countries that needed the cereal but could not pay for it, No one will quarrel with the govern- ment's willingness to give away wheat under such schemes as the Colombo Plan, to nations that are suffering from food shortages, But it must be remem- bered that this sort of marketing is ar- titicial, It may look good in the export figures, but it cannot be reckoned ns solid sale, During his tour of the Common~ wealth, Mr, Diefenbaker emphasized that wheat should play a much larger part In Canada's future contributions to the Colombo Plan, Speaking in New Zealand, he sald, "In view of the fact that we have in Canada a tremendous surplus of wheat, we would naturally hope, if not expect, that these countries (India, Pakistan and Ceylon) would take a larger share of wheat and flour under the Colombo Plan, It Is our hope that in the next few years a substantial portion of our contribution will be made up of wheat," Such contributions should = not be listed or regarded as exports, They are gifts, bought and paid for by Canadian taxpayers, Mr, Diefenbaker obviously expects the surpluses of wheat to con= tinue, which means he expects the sys- tem under which the surpluses have pccumulated to continue, This is good for the needy Commonwealth countries But the taxpayer should have clear in his mind what he Is being taxed for, Russ Students To Work Not so long ago we were hearing a great deal about the superiority of the Russian Canada and the United States, In some respects, observations appeared valid, particularly relation dig= closures of the decline of mathematics and languages In the US, secondary schools and the accompanying Increase in such subjects as social deportment and dating The Russian student faced a much stiffer curriculum from the first days in school, was more severely discipline. od and was much farther ahead, particularly in the sciences, by the time he was 14 or 15 years of age, That was the eoncensus of educators who had had an opportunity to study Russian and North American systems Wea should now like to see the same educators comment the new tack taken by Russian leaders In education The Buprems Soviet has announced school system over those of the in Lo on that all students must start taking part In "healthy and socially useful work" st the age of 15 or 16, Any further studies after that age must be linked with productive work in the national economy, Reorganization of Russian schools will start in the 1050-80 school year and be completed In three to five years, The law adopting changes sald: "The bringing of school to life will ereate the necessary conditions for a better education for the rising generation." There is enough vagueness about the new plan to make nbout predicting how it will work out, Initi= ally at least it seems to be a method of inereasing the Russian labor pool, What wa should like tn see ig a comparison made bv an informed authority on edu« cation between the readiness of North American and Russian 15-year-olds for participation In "healthy and socially useful work," the educational closer one cautious Dog Days Of Holiday These are the dog-days of the holliday meanon for those who plunge immoder- ately Into the Yuletide festivities, The glow of Christmas is fading, and the New Year celebration is still to come, The Christmas tree is beginning te Sook gaunt and shabby, and the carpet of needles beneath it Is beginning te irritate, The carcass of the turkey, If it has not yet been tossed out, Is a dis- solute reminder of the dull heaviness that follows over-eating, The presents still look fresh and bright, but there is # nagging recollection o. what they cost, Next week It won't matter, The cele brations will be over, and every red- blooded Canadian will be nleely settled Plan March In more than. .a hundred Ontarle towns plans are again under way for the annual Mothers' March of Dimes to held the evening of Monday, Feb, 2, Last year in a single hour, the marching mothers raised $487,000 in Ontario te finance the rehabilitation of handicapped adults throughout the pro= Part of the funds were used thia to help establish rehabilitation centres' In six Ontario to bring treatment closer to home hundreds of disabled WwW.

A survey reveals that, In recent newspaper editorials, the word "Inflation" has appeared thrice for every two mentions of "Yule. tide," Inflation is not the only prob. lem facing you and me and Prime Minister John Diefenbaker today; perhaps too few of us re. gard It as our most immediate problem, But the dwindling value of our decaying dollar, which Is brought about by inflation, thrusts lself Into a lead role In every one of our domestie and international dramas today; war threats, (rade restrictions, une developed areas, unemployment, disease, taxation and so on, Our cost of living, as measured by the official Consumer Price Index, has risen five points since the Conservative government took office 18 months ago. Tt had risen a like amount in the pre. ceding 12 months, Prior to that, it had remained virtually steady for four and one half years, after a record 12:point leap prompted hy the outbreak of the Korean War. That matched the 12-point leap In 1046, at the height of the post-war boom. Yet significantly, it rose. only three points in the four final free-spending years of the Second Great War, when prices and wages were strictly regulated by the government, DO YOU REALLY CARE? The remote-sounding Consumer Price Index can be reported as rising without making you hot under the collar, Would you he equally disinterested If, nearly every month, your boss were to tell you that your wages had been out? Yet that ls the real mean. ing every time the monthly cals culations hy the Bureau of Sta. tistics. reveals a rise In the Pl Suppose your pay packet ls slightly higher than the cross Canada Industrial average, per. haps $75 per week. In the past two years, it has had six dollars lopped off ita purchasing power, a dime one month, a quarter an- other. Perhaps you have not no- ticed this, but your wife Is made painfully aware of it when she does the marketing for your fam- ily Did you take out life Insurance after the war, as so many re. turned servicemen did, shucking off thelr uniforms and assuming family responsibilities? The hard. earned dollars which you saved in those early years look pretty alekly today, because the insure ance protection which you then considered satisfactory for your wife and children has had 40 cents In the dollar chiselled off It by Inflation, That Insurance protection, planned to care for your widow and: fatherless chil- dren in case of need, will now care for them and feed them for than eight months In the There Is mmme loss year Likewise, the penslon pro. visions for your old age and your savings, onve adjudged satisfac. tory to your needs, now will fill those needs for only part of each year, and thanks to inflation you will either burden your grown-up USEFUL AIRCRAFT AUCKLAND, NZ.

A prime cause of this heartless, destructive (nflation is the re peated demand for higher wages, which dn turn pushes prices up As The Queen sald to Alice, in the topsy-turvy world of Through the Looking Glass, "It takes all the running you can do, to keep In the same place." Each of us, understandably in our Ignorance, tries to keep ahead of the price spiral by seeking wage Increases. These, we hope, will offset the decreased purchasing power of each dollar we earn, but the Increases them- selves bring about that decrease, In this short-sighted and greedy lack of restraint, In this eco- nomle clvil war, the union lead. ors are very much to blame, But year by year our governments have been perhaps even more to blame, for not explaining in sim- ple language the complex eco. nomic situation, and telling each and all of us what Is needed to fight and beat this grave na- tional problem, Meanwhile, using Inflation as the fuse to the big bang which will win the cold war for them, the Communist countries are let- ting our own stupidity thus net the stage, When we have ruined our currency, they will deliver the economic kno ek out hlow, which will eripple International trade In the free world, and then destroy our prosperity and our vay of life, without the use of a single hydrogen bomb, Are we really as dumb as that? Our government is asking itself whether we are sufficiently adult to be grateful to it, If it should give ua the unpleasant medicine which alone can cure our fatal economic disease, FOR BETTER HEALTH BYGONE DAYS i5 YEARS AGO Local eltizens were asked to ald the war effort by a "huge waste paper drive."

HERMAN N, BUNDESEN, MD Is a person who ia chornically {ll better off at home or in a hos. pital? This fs the soul - searching problem so many younger per- sons experience these days as thelr parents become older and in MANY ANGLES There are many things to take into consideration, Firat, of course, should be your doctor's opinion, If he belleves that the patient will be better off ir. a hospital, at least for a time, then that is the best possible place for him, If the patient has no real need for hospital care, however, thon he probably would be far better off at home, FINANCIAL ADVANTAGES Caring for one who faces a long Illness at home has many advantages, pot the least of whigh "1s financial, For example, the coat of hos. pital care in a large city is now abou' $32 per day. Caring for the same. patient at home would cost approximately $3.50 or a savings of $18.50 per day I want to emphasize, however, that the choice hetween home or hospital care shouldn't be based on money alone, A decision by a family to take care of a chronically {ll member at home {a likely to have a very favorable -offest on the patient, NO SIMPLE TASK If you plan to undertake home care of a member of your fam ily, make sure that you, or the one who will be handling most of the care, is up to the job. It is sot a simple task, Home care is an allinclusive Job which generally means mar. keting, planning meals, bedside care, bathing the patient, care of the bedclothing and general oare of the home, Anyone undertaking such a job should be healthy and strong, must be stable and mature and have sound judgment, Moreover, she should be able to understand older persons and accept their idiosyncrasies, HOPEFUL OUTLOOK She must have a hopeful out look and must be able to com. municate this optimism to the pa- tient, She must maintain a pleasant atmosphere not only in the sick room but throughout the home, Air fresheners, for example, should be used often, SMALL FEEDINGS The doctor's advice about the patient's diet shonld he followed hut generally appetites of such patients are poor and | suggest smaller feedings, possibly six times a day, instead of the cus: tomary three heavier meals.

McINTYRY "00D Special Correspondent for The Oshawa Times LONDON -- A new play sen sation has hit the West End of London with a bang, Heralded as likely to push "My Fair Lady" into second place in popular sc- elaim, "West Side Story" recely- ed rave notices on its premier presentation, and is already book- od solidly for some months ahead, "West Bide Story" has some- thing In common with "My Fair Lady" in that it-is sn adapta. tion of an old classical drama to modern life, "My Fair Lady' puts the theme of Shaw's Pygmalion into 8 modern setting, "West Bide Story' transfers the plot of Shapespeare's "Romeo and Ju. liet" to the west side of New York, and provides a8 modern counterpart of its theme, The foud between the Montagues and Capulets becomes a bitter war be. tween two west side gangs, the Sharks and the Jets, And when the leader of the Jets hecomes the lover of the sister of the lead- er of the Sharks, the analogy Is complete, Apart from the story, the piay is bizarre, but dazzling produc. tion, With excellent music, ballet and Interpretive dancing, and splendid acting by the two young lovers, portrayed hy Marlys Wat. ters and Don MacKay, and the leader of the rival gang, Ken le Roy, "West Side Story' nas re- ceived more - acclaim than any other play to hit the West end of London in years, Before it opened gt Her Majesty's Theatre on Haymarket, it was hooled solidly to the end of February, Since the rave notices appeared, solid hookings have gone far beyond that date BRIGHT NEW FILM I saw a press review of a bright new film which has been produced by the J, Arthur Rank organization in England, and which brings to the screen Hardy Kruger, the talented young Ger. man actor who starred in the film "The One Who Got Away", which was so well received In Canada, In that film, Kruger played the role of a German war prisoner who escaped from a prison camp in Northern On- tario, and was never recaptured, His new film, "Bachelor Hearts" Is entirely different, Jt Is pure comedy, dealing with the amorous and academic adven- tures of 8 youn, German under. graduate st Cambridge Univer. sity, It was slightly reminiscent of & former film "A Yank at Ox- ford", but provided me with an hour and a half of enjoyable en. tertainment, SPLENDID PHOTOGRAPHY Apart from the many comedy scenes, one thing that impress. ed me was the excellency of the photography of locations in and around Cambridge, It was of the best, and it will doubtless arouse nostalgic memories for Canadians who have visited that university city In England, After. seeing the film, 1 attend. ed a reception for Hardy Kruger and found him a charming and unassuming young actor, One of his regrets is that he has not yet been to Canada, Talking about his previous film, "The One Who Got Away", he sald that it had st first been intended to film the es- cape scenes in Northern Ontario, where the incidents actually took place, TOO COLD IN CANADA "But It was found", sald Mr, Kruger, "that the temperatures there in winter were so cold that the cameras and other equipment would not have functioned proper- ly, Bo we went to Sweden to shoot the escape scenes where the scenery was similar to that in Canada, but the climate was not nearly so cold." Mr, Krug or speaks perfect Eng. lish, without a trace of accent, In fact, he confessed that he had to practice speaking English with a German accent for a consider. able time to play the role of a German undergraduate at Cam- bridge University in "Bachelor of Hearts" SEES NO DIFFICULTY Hugh Gaitskell, leader of Brit ain's Socialist party, and James Griffiths, member of his 'shadow cabinet" do not see any: difficulty in a West African Federation of Ghana and the former French Guinea remaining in the Com. monwealth, At a press confer of ence in the course of which ques- tions were about the party's views on the proposed federation bewteen these two African coun tries, one of them in the Common. wealth, Mr, Gaitskell said it would be silly to turn Ghana out of the Commonwealth because it carried out a federation which the people of West Frica felt de- sirable, Mr, Griffiths, who was colonial secretary in a former Labor ad. ministration, and who had visited Ghana, stated that for years, to his knowledge, all West Africans had dreamed of a federation of their countries, He did not know of course, what consultations had gone on between the governments of the United Kingdom and Ghana, but he felt that the move- ment towards federation was a logical one, "One of the problems In West Mrica", sald Mr, Griffiths, "is that the boundaries are quite arti- ficial, In many places they cut through and across tribes, and Africa has a long history of tri. bal rule under tribal chiefs, I am surprised that this is the first example of a move towards a natural federation, I think we shall see a growing movement in this direction, But surely the Com. monwealth should not seek to ex- clude Ghana because of its fol. lowing the natural aspirations of the people of West Africa." FRENCH MIGHT OBJECT Mr, Gaitskell felt that the chief difficulty would come from France, which might object to the former French Guinea being brought into the Commonwealth, "The French have always been suspicious of our colonial poles ies, which are different from theirs, The French policy is to absorb their colonial territories and make them part of France, Ours has heen to help them along the road to self-government, But apart from that, -- and of course this is only a proposal to be discussed to far -- there is nothing incompatible In a West African Federation remaining a member of the Commonwealth,' Immigration To Canada Should Grow Next Year By JOHN E, BIRD Canadian Press Staff Writer OTTAWA (CP) Immigration to Canada in '1059 likely will be 25,000 to 35,000 greater than 1068's below-average movement of some 126,000 if the Canadian economy continues its current upswing, But any downward revision of economic forecasts in the next few months could mean arrivals will be about the same as this year, or perhaps less, Immigration authorities expect that on the basis of present econo- mic trends Immigration in the new year will total between 1580, 000 and 160,000, slightly higher than the annual average of 153, 000 for the 10.year period from 10408 to 1087 JOBS BIG FACTOR "It is not fair or sensible to bring people to Canada with no johs to come to," Immigration Minister Ellen Fairclough sald in an interview. "We must bring people to Canada when jobs are available or about to become available," Canada's current unemploy- ment situation did not warrant any immediate relaxation of im- migration restrictions imposed in July, 1087, In the face of an- ticipated heavy unemployment In the 1057-58 winter, These restrictions mainly were responsible for arrivals in 1068 dropping to about 125,000 from the 1057 total of 202,164, the highest number since 1013 when 400,870 arrived, They will not be lifted until the government {x satisfied the 1050 economy will be healthy enough to absorb an increased flow of immigrants, In periods of high employment, tentative immigration targets usually are set by the end of December for the following year, If the restrictions are not re- laxed during the first three months of 1050 the chances are that immigration next year will not he any larger than this year, It takes the immigration depart. ment about three months to set machinery in opertaion for ar: rival of newcomers, AIM OF CONTROLS Present Immigration restric. tions are aimed at preventing versons without jobs and sponsors rom entering the counrty and adding to the unemployment prob. lem, Most immigrants now arrive ing are persons joining families in Canada and those with special skills or jobs to come to, ' In the first nine months of 1958, arrivals totalled 100,131, com. pared with 244,266 in the corres. ponding period of the previous year, Final figures for 1058 will not he avallable until February or March, The ninth-month drop of 144. 185 from 1057 was caused mainly by a sharp decline in arrivals of British immigrants, They totals led only 22,620 in the first nine months of 1058, compared with 00,081 the previous year, Current restrictions do not af fect citizens of Britain, Ireland, France pi the United States, However, prospective immigrants from these countries are being warned of employment conditions Art Career Gets New Dimension NEW YORK (CP) -- When Ca- nadian artist Roloff Beny bought a second-hand camera in Spain, he added a new dimension to his career, Virtually by accident, Beny be. came a photographer as well as painter although he first Intended the camera to be merely an alde to the hrush, "It's a trial to sketch under the PARAGRAPHICAL WISDOM "Humorists are fast becoming extinct," says'an editor, Yes, As truth is stranger than flection, so are many happenings in the world today funnier, in a droll sort of way, than anything anybody can dream up, When a person says of another, "Well, he means well, anyway," he 'is crediting him with having good motives and charging him with being rather dumb "Did you ever notice that the wrong number on the phone is never busy when you call?" asks a columnist, Query: If you get a busy signal, how would you know whether it was the right number or wrong number that was busy? "A man can't play a good game of golf if his wife is unhappy, and he knows she is." says a Psy chologist, Aw, gwan there can't possibly be that many un. wives, hot Mediterranean sun, especl- ally when curious children gather - round," said Beny, "I thought the camera would be faster than sketching" He was interviewed during a visit to New York--he now lives in Rome--in connection with the North American publication of his new book, The Thrones of Earth and Heaven (Longmans, Green), which amounts to a pho. tographic tour of the Mediterran. ean and its historic. monuments. BOYHOOD HOBBY "It doesn't matter aesthetically whether T use a lens or brush," sald Beny, 'It's like Investigating another technique of expression, One doesn't exclude the other, "It's idle to ask whether I con- sider myself a photographer or painter, One doesn't know from one day to the next," Born In Medicine Hat and brought up in Lethbridge, where his parents still live, Beny won early recognition as a painter and has held some 15 shows in Eng. land, France, Italy, Greece and the United States as well as Can: ada Photography was merely a boy- hood hobby and "I almost forgot it when "1 dedicated myself to painting at the age of 15," said Beny The dark-haired artist, who looks younger than his 34 years, sald his apparent switch to pho tography has puzeled some friends and added "Why should a man define him self as this or that so long as he is open to Impressions and learn. et in Canada and advised to walt until the economy improves, During 1068 government agreed to admit as immigrants an addition, 1,100 Hungarian refs ugees from Austria and Italy, This brought to more than 38,000 the number of Hungarians admits ted to Canada since the 1006 Hungarian revolt, HANNA CASE The Hungarians began arrive ing in Canada in December of 1066, In that month Canada also admitted 24 - year - old Christian George Hanna, The slight, swarthy laborer ar rived at Port Alberni, B.C, as a stowaway aboard the Norwe- glan freighter Gudveig, He stowed away on the ship 15 months be- fore at Beirut, Lebanon, The stateless Hanna applied for permission to land in Canada but was refused on grounds that he had no pussport, no Identification and no nationality or known place of birth, He said he was born at sea of « French Somali mother, who died when he was six, and a Liberian father whom he had never seen, FOR AULD LANG SYNE A minute's silence Lads, take time To think of Mae For Auld Lang Syne, Last New Year's Eve, While homeward bent, He had a dreadful Ageeeind ant, The nicht was brow, The nicht was bricht, But snow and ice The road had slickt, He hit a bump, He braked too late And skidded through The pearly gate, INSURANCE q] A ASSOCIATION Offices in Toronto London; Windsor Hamilton, Ottawa Owen Sound Avto Insurance for Careful Drivers CO-OPERATORS
