Page 4 Friday, September 1 1! 959 More Research, Selling For Uranium Industry A report prepared in 1957 for Atomic Energy of Canada Ltd. and revised in 1958 has now been released, The signi- ficance of the report is that it deals with the uranium industry and looks ahead to the future, the Sudbury Star says, and continues: Within the space of a few years the uranium industry has grown up to be a giant in the mining activity of the world. The phenomenal growth of El- liot Lake attracted worldwide attention as governments sought this vital min- eral for war uses. Uranium soared to a top-ranking position in Canada, be- ing fourth in our exports behind wheat, pulp and paper and lumber. With ap- proaching expiration of government con- tracts comes a period in which an an- alysis is being made of future pros- pects, In some respects the production of uranium parallels the experience of nickel. War contracts boomed the de- mand for nickel after which came a period when the demand slackened off. Now we see nickel emerging as a vital mineral in industrial use. The nickel in- dustry did not lay down its oars as gov- ernment military contracts ran out. Through ' research and salesmanship new uses were found for nickel and it again takes its place as a sought-after valuable mineral demanded more now in peacetime than it was for war. - Is it not a fact that a somewhat sim ilar situation prevails in respect to ur- anium? Research continues into the peacetime use of uranium and more and more countries throughout the world are becoming interested in it. New mar- kets must be opened up and Ottawa must put aside impediments to uranium sales to other nations. Having had knowledge of a lessening demand for wartime use the govern- ments and the mining companies have not likely been sitting on their hands for the past two years. They must sure- ly have gone into the question of peacetime use and market possibilities in this period. Our concluding thought is that as the governments did, in effect, create the uranium industry, and encourage the speedy and large developments in ur- anium mining fields, there is also a re- sponsibility on the governments to en- courage the economic health of the in- dustry. A solution to imminent over- production at Elliot Lake mines will be found, short of another war, only if mine owners and mines departments become active in joint sales effort, Judge Attacks Jargon "When a man gives you an orange, he simply says: 'Have an orange.' But when the transaction is entrusted to a lawyer, he adopts this form: I hereby give and convey to you, all and singu- lar my estate and interest, right, title, claim and advantages of and in said or- ange, together with its rind, skin, juice, pulp and pips and all rights and advan- tages therein with full power to bite, suck, or otherwise eat the same or give the same away with or without the rind, skin, juice, pulp and pips, anything hereinbefore or hereinafter or in any other means of whatever nature or kind whatsoever to the contrary in anywise notwithstanding.' , . . Then another law= year comes along and takes the orange eway from you." This is an example of the legal jar- gon that, in the opinion of Mr. Justice H, W. Riley, of the Alberta Supreme Court, is in need of revision, Mr. Justice Riley is one of the members of the bar who believes the language of the law should be streamlined to get rid of that which "is neither Greek, nor Latin, nor good plain English." Robert C. Dick, a Toronto who joins with Mr. Justice Riley in condemnation of legal jargon urges lawyers to "discard the worthless ones and use words and expressions in keep- lawyer ing with the modern equipment in our office, About 25 years ago a presiding judge instructed a jury from rural communi- ties to disregard an error drawn to the court's attention by a defence lawyer "as being no more than the interpola- tion of an amanuensis." In the legal profession today the question is still asked as to how many of the jurors knew what the learned judge was talk- ing about, The language of the law needs to be cleaned up so that any person of av- erage intelligence can understand its meaning, Clinging to the old form like a maid- en aunt to her shawl doesn't fit into today's concept of clarity. A 20th cen- tury lawyer would not think of writing with a quill by candlelight and riding to the courthouse with saddlebags slap- ping the sides of his horse. But in this age of jet propulsion and rocket flights to outer space we find 20th century lawyers and judges jeal- ously protecting the language mummy of a past era, Mr. Justice Riley and Mr. Dick have public support in their contention that "Have an orange" is the clarity of ex- pression that everyone understands and which should replace the legal jargon of musty, moldy law journals that have become museum pieces. Canadians And Murder Since when is Canada the most civil- ized nation on earth? The Vancouver Sun answers the question thus: Of course it isn't. And yet that is the clear implication of remarks by Sena- tor W. M. Aseltine. He says capital pun- ishment is on the way out in Canada but must be retained until "the num- erous people from many countries who are in Canada become assimilated and know and understand our law." The senator is downgrading everyone not born in Canada. He is implying that only Canadians know what mur- der is. He is implying that recent im- migrants -- chiefly people from Brit- ain, Germany, the Netherlands, Italy and the Scandinavian countries -- do not understand what murder is, Worse, the senator's statement sup- poses that these are barbaric breeds more given to murder than the advanc- ed Canadian is. Which is nonsense, There is a further and equally unac- ceptable complication in the senator's remarks. He seems to assume that im- migration is going to stop, and appar- ently soon.

Average Daily Net Paid Publisher's Statement as of March 31, 1959 16,260 Q Toronto, Ontarios Canada needs and will continue to need for a good long time the addition of peoples from other lands. They are not just tolerable; they are necessary to the adequate growth of our country. So when will capital punishment end, under the senator's terms? In a century or two? No, Senator Aseltine. Canadian sensi- bility cannot wait that long for what you yourself consider inevitable -- the end of capital punishment. It is too much on our conscience. And on the conscience of new arrivals who must live -- and five years after arrival ac- cept partial responsibility for them along with the native-born -- under the laws of this land. There is not a society on earth which condones murder in the generally ac- cepted sense -- the killing of one pri- vate person by another private person. There are few nations which accept the killing of a murderer as an adequate or reasonable response to murder. Even among the backward (that is, non-Canadian nations. Capital punishment is on its way out. Let's get it out--fast. The poor be- nighted immigrants will understand that well enough, in all likelihood. Other Editor's Views POLITICS NOT A CAREER (Peterborough Examiner) The fact is that politics is not a car- eer 'in Ontario. An insurance salesman gets more than an MLA: and has to know much less. The demands on a pro- vincial member are manifold. The se- cret of success, then, is not a platform or a bad record for the governing party, but a team of candidates which the public cannot ignore.

Correspondent For The Oshawa Times LONDON -- British European Airways are determined to bring air travel, especially on holidays, within the reach of a greater number of potential passengers. In his annual report on the last year's operations of BEA, Lord Douglas of Birkdale, its chair- man, announced plans for put- ting reduced fares into operation for the holiday services in the summer of 1960. While full details of the pro. posed reductions were not given, Lord Douglas intimated that the biggest cuts would be made in the mid-week night services, some of which will drop by from 15 to 20 per cent It is also plan- ned to cut day fares by 17 per cent on some of the mid-week services during the peak season. He also indicated that an effort would be made to extend the summer peak season In his report, he said: "By offering lower fares throughout the week om holiday routes in April, May and early June, BEA hopes to extend the present summer traffic peak over a considerably longer per- fod." LOOKING AHEAD This is only a beginning to the BEA program of reduced holiday fares for air travel. He gave a hint that other lines would prob- ably follow the lead of BEA, and that there would be additional re. ductions in the years to come, He said: "BEA had hoped it would be possible to go over completely to this new policy throughout Turope, but practical difficulties facing other airlines, such as converting aircraft, will make difficult the full implementation of this policy in 1960" Last year, BEA carried 2,828, 715 passengers, earned £31,761. 313, and made a net profit of $232,695, the fifth successive year of profitable operations TRANS-ATLANTIC FARES While these reductions do not apply to Trans-Atlantic passen- ger rates, British airlines are out to make a strong bid for a reduction in these also. These rates and other world-wide rates, are fixed by the Interna- tional Air Transport Association. The British representatives - on that body will go to its next rate. fixing meeting with the avowed objective of achieving substan. tial reductions in long-distance fares. It is authoritatively re- ported that their demand will be something akin to an ultimatum, that if the IATA does not reduce fares, the British lines will pull out of the fare agreement and make reducticns anyway. They can foresee that when the Van- guard planes go into service, they can effect very consider- ably economies in operations. They are determined to pass on these reductions to the public in order to stimulate passenger traffic by air and get more peo- ple flying FOR BETTER HEALTH Statistics On Cancer Still Are Staggering HERMAN N. BUNDESEN, MD LET'S face the facts. Approximately half of the na- tion's "more than 100,000,000 adults will be touched by the cancer problem sometime during their lifetime. A relative, maybe a close one, maybe not, will be stricken with some form of the disease. Among these same 100,000,000, about 25,000,000 can be expected to develop cancer during their lifetime. STAGGERING FIGURES These are pretty staggering figures, but cancer is a pretty staggering problem. Eventually, we will find a cure, I'm sure of that. It may, however. take quite a while yet. And until we do come up with a cure, each year between 2,000, 000 and 3,000,000 of you will be confronted with cancer im your family. Approximately 450000 new cases of cancer are diagnosed annually, Of this number, we can expect about 150,000 to be saved. CAN'T BE SAVED Of the remaining 300,000, we know that about 225,000 are go- ing to die within a few years. Because of our limited knowl- edge of the disease, we just do not as yet have the means to save them. That leaves 75,000 persons. What about them? Well, our experience shows that these persons, too, will die of cancer. However, they will die unnecessarily. . We do know enough about the disease to save many of them. That is, we can save them if they go to their doctors in time to permit an early diagnosis and prompt and adequate treatment, Which brings me to the point I am trying to make One of the chief problems con- ting doctors today in the to save cancer victims is the apathetic attitude of the gen eral public. KNOW DANGER SIGNALS For one thing, all of you should know the seven danger signals of cancer. All of you should have an . annual or semi-annual physical checkup. Since about half of you will be touched in one way or an- other by the cancer problem, you must be prepared for the prospect. You must learn to trust your doctor and to avoid quacks and their useless "remedies." QUESTION AND ANSWER A reader: For some time IY have successfully used hormone cream but now am told that it can cause cancer, Is this true? Answer: As a rule, hormone creams have no more «fect, either beneficial or harmful, than the same creams would have without hormones. Massey Visits Festival City STRATFORD (CP) -- Gover- nor-General Massey called him self a "grateful visitor" to the Stratford Shakespearean Festival Thursday as he made one of his finai public appearances before his retirement next Tuesday. At a luncheon given him by the festival's governors, the 72-year- old governor-general was pre- sented with a sketch of Sir Alee Guinness in a scene from the first-year production of Richard IIT by designer Tanya Moisei- witsch and an orb carried by Sir Alec in the same production. Mr, Massey laid the corner- stone of the permanent theatre Jan. 26, 1957. The governor general paid tribute to the founders, actors, technicians and governors of the festival. BY-GONE DAYS OTTAWA REPORT Canadian Unions May Face Big Yea By PATRICK NICHOLSON improve our homes and our coun- try; and there are very, very few of us who do not work, apart from the ven young and the very old. Since Conservative Prime Minister John Thompson originated 'Labor Day" in 1894, the number of those Canadians who work by hand or mind in city or on farm has swollen tremendously. Last month, our work force totalled 6,434,000 men and women. PROBLEMS ABOUT UNIONS 1,160,000 of those workers are organized into the trade union movement affiliated through the Canadian Labor Congress. It was not without significance that the president of that congress, Claude Jodoin, said in his Labor Day message that the past year has been an important one for la- bor, while the year ahead is likely to be even more important. Few North Americans needed Mr. Jodoin's reminder of one of the sources of past and future troubl when he admitted: 35 YEARS AGO H. Pennington, with 45 years of service, was the oldest em- ployee to attend General Motors picnic held at Lakeview Park. The picnic had a record attend- ance of over 8000. Miss A. E.
