The Oshawa Times * Published by Canadian Newspapers Limited, 86 King St. E., Oshawa, Ont. Page 6 Thursday, April 27, 1961 i 4 U.S. Cannot Tolerate Latin American Drive +. When India's Nehru bitterly con- 'demned the United States for support 'of the recent commando raid (and that's 'about all it amounted to) on Cuba, 'he displayed the curious double stand- 'ard that he and some other so-called 'neutralists apply to international affairs. They seem to think that Russians and Americans should follow different codes of conduct. | When Russian troops smashed Hun- 'gary's bid for freedom, Mr. Nehru was 'in no hurry to condemn the Soviet 'Union; he said he "wanted more details 'before making any comment." He was 'euriously inarticulate when the Chinese 'invaded Tibet, and when Communist rebels, armed, trained and advised by the Chinese and Russians, started a civil 'war against the Laotian goverment. His reacion was much more positive and ' swift, however, when Britain moved on Suez; and he did not hesitate a mo- ment in order to check his facts before 'he blasted the United States for "inter- vention" in Cuba. Some Canadians too, have been quick Agricultural It isn't good news for Canada that :the European Common Market is work- .ing out a levy system for grain, dairy produce, meat, eggs, poultry and any other agricultural products which may be specified by the European Economic Community. The levy system will cover ll trade in these products between the member states and non-member coun- 3 The levies will be based on the dif- ference between the prices in the im- porting and the exporting countries. For processed goods on which a levy is charged, the difference in prices paid for the raw materials will be taken as 4 basis, and any appropriate supple- mentary levies may be applied. An ex- planation is given by our London cor- sespondent, McIntyre Hood: 3 : "This means that any countries export- ing any of the named agricultural pro- ducts to the Common Market nations will have to pay first of all the com- mon external tariffs imposed by the European Economic Community against non-member nations. On top of that, to condemn the U.S. help given Cuban opponents of the Castro regime. There is no doubt that U.S. intelligence blun- dered badly -- and the most critical of the intelligence failure are the Amer- icans themselves. But there is also no doubt, if we are realists, that the United States cannot afford to let Cuba be- come not just a Communist base 90 miles from the Florida coast, but the springboard for new Communist adven- tures in troubled Latin America. The Communist are adroitly and ruth lessly using the new technique of in vasion, which consists simply of captur- ing - any promising rebel movement against oppressive government. People like Mr. Nehru blandly ignore this strategy of aggression, The United States cannot ignore it. It cannot allow the Communists to capture Latin Amer- ica, any more than it could allow the Communists to control Canada. The Americans may be able to tun away the threat without using force. But let's not kid ourselves: If force is the only way out, it will be used. Barriers if the price levels in the exporting country are lower than those in the im- porting country, there will be a spe- cial levy to make up the difference. "This is tantamount to giving agri- culture within the Common Market countries complete and absolute protec- tion against the agricultural products of non-member countries, such as Canada. And it should be noted that in 1959, forty per cent of Canada's exports to the Common Market countries were agricultural." Another point to be noted in the policy is that 80 per cent of the yield from the levy on agricultural products will be allocated to the importing country. The remaining 20 per cent will be placed in a joint fund to finance the common agricultural policy on the eco- nomic and social planes. "From what I have been able to learn in Brussels" writes Mr, Hood, "the ultimate aim of the Common Market agricultural policy is to make its member nations self-suffi- cient for agricultural products, and the barriers against imports are considered an essential step in that direction." Seaway Going Concern : Disappointment has been expressed that the tonnage carried through the St. Lawrence Seaway has been less than objectives set by a toll committee in 1958. These tolls were set so as to 'produce sufficient revenue to pay off gonstruction costs in 50 years. ' A different view is taken in the cur- gent business review of the Bank of Montreal, which believes the estimates «-- for an annual movement rising from 25 million tons to 33 million in the ; three years should not be consider- '4d as arbitrary standards. "That the ex- 'perience of the Seaway in its first two s has fallen somewhat below i and necessarily conjectural pre- ions is scarcely cause for disappoint- : or alarm," the review states. | The Seaway has had some technical difficulties as was inevitablé in the initial operation of such an extensive engineering project.

Both ships' crews and lock operators were inexper- ienced at first and there were some accidents. But the Seaway has steadily improved in efficiency and safety and improvements are still proceeding, with transit times through the locks being cut sharply. The review thinks that the Seaway's early record provides "reassuring evi- dence that this enlarged maritime artery to the heart of the continent is already, despite inevitable growing pains, expand- in and facilitating the flow of trade, and that it will continue to do so." It recalls the official opening of the Seaway, by the Queen and Mr. Eisen- hower two years ago and points to the contrast between that ceremonial occa- sion and the admittance of 17 waiting ships to the waterway at the start of the third season on April 15. The routine passage of regular cargo vessels indicates clearly that the Sea- way, a dream which took more than 50 years_to become a reality, is now a going concern.

McINTYRE HOOD Special London (Eng.) Correspondent For The Oshawa Times LONDON ~ A report from a moral welfare officer in an area in which a United States Air Force base is located, to the effect that unmarried mothers were giving away their babies to American Service couples stationed in Britain, has caused something of a furor. The wel- fare officer is Sister Joyce Randall. She is stationed at King's Lynn, Norfolk, which is near the Sculthorpe United States air base. And she de- clares that this is going on not only in her own area, but all over the country wherever Unit- ed States Service Personnel are located. In a report to the King's Lynn Council for Moral Wel- fare, she stated that last year nine unmarried mothers in the area made their own arrange- ments for the adoption of their children. In each case, she said, the adopting couples were Amer- ican service men and their wives. PROMISED LAND Of the other unmarried moth- ers in the area who did not keep their babies, said Sister Randall, 19 were placed for adoption through registered adoption societies, and four girls placed their babies in resi- dential nurseries belonging to voluntary societies. Speaking of the new trend towards making private ar- rangements for adoption of babies by American couples, Sis- ter Randall says: "'Quite often the mothers have a strong desire to have their babies brought up in the United States. To a great many of these girls, America is the promised land." The American couples, in every case reported, knew the mothers and arrangements were made between them for adoption of the babies. Sister Randall added that she was of the opinion that most of the fathers of the babies were American service men. There is a perfectly good rea- son for this trend towards pri- vate adoption by American couples, Childless couples anxi- ous to adopt an English child and take it back with them to America have found stumbling- blocks in the way when they apply to the registered adop- tion societies. All of them have long lists of applicants waiting their turn to adopt a child. Be- cause of this.and their impati- ence with the red tape which has to be unwound, the Ameri- can couples have sidetracked the societies and made their own private arrangements with the unmarried mother. Sister Randall hastens to point out that there is nothing sinister or illegal in this. "It is perfectly legal," she said, "and the baby has to be adopted thrlugh the courts in the usual way. But it is a thing which we, as moral welfare offi- cers, do not like. "When a girl knows of people desirous of adopting her baby, and she makes these arrange ments, then if anything goes wrong later, she has to be re- sponsible for it." PARAGRAPHICAL WISDOM "Looking at the wide expanse of the stars should make us feel insignificant," says a philoso- pher. Why? What have the stars got that we don't have? To estimate the age of a man, ask him what he thinks of the younger generation and to a base of 35 add five years for each profane or highly uncom- plimentary term he uses in his reply. QUEEN'S PARK Big Crime Probe Seen Inevitable By DON O'HEARN TORONTO -- The Liberals want an inquiry into the admin- istration of justice. And they may be riding a star. For such an inquiry seems in- evitable. For some time there has seemed' to be looseness in ad- ministration. Then there were the charges of corruption in the O.P.P-- still to be settled. Recently there has been an alleged gambling war in Tor- onto and other centres. This last has been sensation- alized in the local press but nevertheless there is good evi- dence of something substantial there. ROBERTS: 'NO' At time of writing Attorney General Roberts says "no." He doesn't see any call for an inquiry--infers the Liberals are playing politics. Of course they are. But they also seem to have a situation to play them with. And one crystal ball would say the Attorney General even- tually--with the return of Pre- mier Frost?--will have to do some re-thinking. It may be some time yet, but one observer who has been Watching this situation ever a long period would say that by a year from now at the latest a crime probe will be under way. LAST INQUIRY DULL And it probably will be more colorful -- and constructive-- than the last one. This probe, you will remem- ber, was conducted in 1951. It started over widespread gambling in Windsor. And it didn't amount to much. There was a lot of technical evidence over the wires that supplied race results, on wire- tapping and other matters. But a good honest-to-goodness criminal never landed in the net before the select committee, Then when its proceedings were only well under way Pre- mier Frost called a fall election. And the committee never was reconstituted. The odd thing behind this was that there never appeared to be a real question of any let-down here. But the government seemed to think there was. And, having been returned with a walloping vote, it just said stiffly it couldn't see any reason for further probing and dropped the whole matter. With the opposition of those days, of course, it was able to do this easily. OTTAWA REPORT. Why Parliament Proceeds Slowly By PATRICK NICHOLSON selves that the tempo deteriorated from the co-0 tive spirit of high resolve by all parties before Christmas, when prior objective of all was to pass legislation which would assist our slowed - down economy. Why has Parliament bogged down? Ask aay, sit MPs, an one hears six different explana- tions. THE LIBERAL LESSON But, as any schoolchild learns in elementary science class, a practical demonstration is more impressive than any explana- tion. So it was appropriate that within minutes of the prime minister's mild warning, two of Liberal Leader Mike Pearson's cutest little helpers showed Ca- nadians just why the business of the nation has got bogged down in Parliament.

In men, the prostate gland surrounds the drain just be- neath the bladder. While wom- en don't 'have prostate glands, they may encounter prostate like trouble. As change of life thins out the masculine chemicals (hor- mones), the prostate gland grows plump and husky. It pushes up against the bladder and tightens around the blad- der-drain, The pressure keeps you rush- ing to the rest room only to find the bladder practically empty. Without extra minutes of forceful straining, the blad- der can't push its contents down the clogged drain, CAN'T DRAIN As this opening is pushed up the side of the bladder, it re- sembles a bathtub overflow. The bladder can't drain below this level, and so extra drops constantly spill over. In the stagnant pool below the outlet, germs frolic and then swim upstream to banquet on kidney tissue.

GALLUP POLL Job Security Thought Main Task For Unions By CANADIAN INSTITUTE OF PUBLIC OPINION In an era in which the job- less tower across the provinces as the nation's greatest prob- lem, opinion has sky-rocketed that the most important thing for Labor Unions to do is to work for security of employ- ment. Today almost a fifth more of the adult population puts this in first place than did so five years ago, with the re- sult that now 56 per cent name "security of employment" as main target for Labor Unions. A steady increase is shown in belief that Unions should strive for such values as better pensions, and profit sharing. Downward trends are shown for the belief that better working conditions are the most impor- tant, while concern with better wages has dropped four per cent. At a time when some observ- Most Important Activity for Labor Unions: ers think that Unions face a problem in maintaining strong memberships in the face of in- creasing unemployment and automation, the Gallup Poll re- veals that the public is changing its point of view on the signifi cance of Union's best contribu- tion to its members. y To show what is happening across the nation, reporters for the Gallup Poll were assigned homes in a national cross section in which to put this question to men and women in all walks of life. "Here are some of the things labor unions try to do for their members. Which of them do you think is the most important at the present time?" Columns below compare points of view at three periods of time in the past five years to show how trends may be de- veloping in attitudes towards some areas of Union activity. 1056 1958 Today Security of employment......
