| She Oshawa Time published by Canadian Newspapers Limited, 86 King 5t Pose 6 Tuesday, Cctober 28, , Oshawa, Ont. 1960 Western View Of Jap Business With Canada A worker in eastern Canade looks at Japanese textiles or other goods and sees in them a danger to his job; indeed, he may already have lost his job be cause the plant that employed him lost business to Japanese imports. The west. ern wheat farmer, however, takes a dif- ferent view, He sees the Japanes goods as 8 means to enable the Japanese to buy more Canadian grain, He is a tradi tional freetrader, and western news papers reflect that viewpoint. The fol. lowing comment by the Winnipeg Tri- bune is typical: The establishment of Canadian Wheat Board offices in Tokyo, announced by Trade Minister Gordon Churchill, is a welcome sign that the federal govern ment is aware of the importance of Ja- pan as @ market for Canadian wheat Japen is now our second biggest cus tomer ' for wheat, having bought nesrly 47 million bushels last year. For a mark- et of this size, it is worth while to main tain an overseas Wheat Board office, But there are problems in Canadian Japanese trade which the opening of a Tokyo office, how ever valuable in itself, will not begin to solve Ja pan, But we are not nearly so anxious to buy from Japan the goods she must sell to earn the Canadian dollars to pay We are anxious to sell wheat to for our wheat, This reluctance where lower priced Japanese goods com pete directly with Canadian manufac- tures, And it is in this ares that "volun- tary quotas" have been placed on Japan- ese exports to Canada, is understandable These are voluntary in the that it is the Japanese government and not the Canadian government that has imposed the restrictions, But there is more than a suspicion that the quotas sense were imposed at the insistence of the Canadian government and under the threat of more direct action by Canada. On the credit side, it can be said that Japanese trade with Canada is growing despite the restrictions. Last year, for example, Japanese exports to Canada in- creased by about 48 per cent over the previous year while Canadian exports to Japan were increasing only by about one-third, But even with this Japan still sold substantially less to Canada than she bought from this country, Per. centagewise, the Japanese trade deficit with Canada decreased, But in dollars, micrease, the gap was wider and will become wider again this year, It can be argued, of course, as it has been by some government officials, that Japanese purchases of Canadian wheat steadily increasing despite The Japanese are using have been the trade gap foreign exchange earned in other mark- ets to finance Canadian wheat purchases, But of Japanese goods are not an absolute bar~ rier against wheat sales to Japan, they certainly do not make the Japanese any more satisfied with this aspect of trade while Canadian restrictions between the two counttries, If we con. tinue restrictions and extend them, we could not blame the Japanese if they began to look around for wheat supplies in some other country more willing to buy from them The pressure is on again te extend further the quota" The federal government has shown some sympathy with the pressure. But before it i such will not frustrate the efforts of the new Wheat Board of- "voluntary system, goes any further, should consider whether action fices in Tokyo and result in a drop in much-needed Canadian export, Seaway Spurs The Gulf lake The St ports have learned in the first two years Lawrence seaway and of expanded ocean shipping that they have to provide facilities, speed, services and economies attractive enough to coms pete with other shipping. They have learned that the seaway by itself isn't enough - it will take hard work to cash in on it, the Milwaukee Journal notes, How hard is indicated by the fact that Gulf of Mexico ports are greatly stepping up their efforts to gain a better coms. petitive position in relation to the sea- way, The Wall Street Journal reports that Houston and New Orleans are par ticularly busy improving their ports A 70 mile shipping channel is being dug from New Orleans on a straight run to the Gulf of Mexico. When it is com pleted in 1963 the $106,000,000 project (the seaway cost the United States only $137,000,000) will cut more than a day off ships' trave! time to New Orleans and save $1,500 or more per trip, In addition the muck being taken from the channel is providing 14,000 acres of industrial land that will available for firms which find an advantage to being right be on an ocean shipping route, Houston is building new docks along the canal which connects it to the Gulf and is starting construction of new me- chanisms for loading and unloading ships im a fraction of the time it now takes, Houston say that they already have noticed some diversion of authorities grain cargos and steel to the St, Lawrence seaway and intend to offer facilities that will stop it more shipping to their port, So the seaway ports, particularly those the U.S, side, coast port and railroad competition, The Gulf to be petitive as surplus and attract in have more than east ports intend highly com always Scare Campaign Scored Certainly A research in safety projects at Co lumbia University has come to the con ¢lusion that "scare" campaigns do not & reduce traffic accidents, In an address to the American Automobile Association James Malfetti, hinted that these gimmicks =~ the grisly photograph, the statistics that compute one's chances of being killed in traffic by sundown on a holiday -- may do more harm than good The Oshavon Times TY.

Scheme By Glasgow For Home Owners By M. McINTYRE HOOD Special London (Eng) Correspondent For The Oshawa Times GLASGOW, Scotland The city corporation of Glasgow has insugurated a plan to make that city probably the most advanced in Britain in making it easy for its citizens to own their own The scheme which has re- ceived its approval, and Is now expected to have the immediate sanction of the Secretary of State for Scotland, provides for 100 per cent loans, up to £5000 ($13,500) at an interest rate of six per cent, to enable citizens of Glasgow, or people who work there, to ac- QUEEN'S PARK nome quire, construct or convert houses for their own use This scheme takes the place of a former one under which loans of only up to 90 per cent were permitted, It also excluded the modernization of houses which had been built before 1919, Under the new scheme, there will be special emphasis on the modern ization of these old homes HOW SCHEME WORKS One of the city councillors who promoted the scheme explained how it would work.

At least not enough to get up and ask him whether he was going to give Ontario any more money The election of Elmer Bell of Exeter as president of the On. tario association went ahead as had been anticipated And it was apparent that Mr Bell will be a genuine power in Ontario Conservative ranks, not the power that his predecessor, A. D. MacKenzie, was TOUGH TO MATCH Mr, MacKenzie's potent hold on the party was built up over years of hard work and unlikely will be matched in a long time, But Mr, Bell will be the next best thing He has a lot of Mr. MacKen. zle's sharpness. And if there is any pushing around, he will be doing It A record was set for PC "re ceptions." Almost 1,500 people sipped tea and can tell their children they shook the hands of Mr. Diefenbaker and Premier Frost and thelr wives Mr, Diefenbaker and Mr. Frost also shook hands a suitable ges. ture on the eve of the next match in the federal-provincial cham plonships It was probably meeting the Ontario PC tion has ever had And that is really something to alm at Amen Speaking of meetings, the de partment of agriculture wishes they had never been invented The hog producers, under an other name, have had a meet ing As Farmers' day special annual off as most Pro meetings the dullest Associa Allied Meat En.

In the West, Liberals are chosen by more people as better able to handle the main prob. lem, while Conservatives and the CCF share the same favor For the record, here is the way Canadians in each of the four re gions think on the subject Quebec Ontarie Want 17% 12% ® 30 3 n § 1 26 26 100% 100% main problem, Today 27 per cent do so.
