Published by Canadian Newspapers Limited, 86 King St. E., Oshawa, Ont. Page 6 Monday, May 29, 1961 Week Draws Attention To Technical Training Technical training occupies the spot- light this week. Each country in the Commonwealth has set aside a week, known as Commonwealth Technical Training Week, acting on the suggestion of the Duke of Edinburgh, and this is Canada's celebration. Labor Minister Starr sketched the background of the Week in his dispatch to this newspaper published last Satur- day. He recalled how Prince Philip was impressed by an Appenticeship Week he witnessed during a visit to Australia and felt that here was a means of acquainting young people and the public in general with the effects of modern technology and science on productivity, employment and education. The Com- monwealth countries quickly picked up the idea, and the UK. produced a slogan, "Training today for tomorrow." In Oshawa there will be a program at the O'Neill Collegiate and Vacational Institute on Wednesday, including a tour of technical, commercial and other facilities, comments on technical educa- tion by Principal George Roberts, dis- cussion of the formation of the Oshawa Lesson From With only the best intent some Cana- dians are questioning whether the world can benefit from the Eichmann trial's retelling of horror and tragedy. But it is not really being retold, for in fact the very number of deaths has de- feated comprehension. Real understand- ing comes only with items of evidence like that given by Dr. Aaron Peretz, doctor in a hospital at Kovno, Lithuania. Dr. Peretz told of a day when SS° troops rounded up the ghetto children for transport to a death camp: "There was no mother who rushed up to the truck and said she wanted her children. The guard 'asked: How many?' The mother said: 'Three' The guard said: 'You may have one' All three put out their hands. The mother went back alone, not knowing which child to choose." But even if such awful testimony makes us finally grasp in human terms the total of the tragedy, can we really learn anything from the Eichmann trial? David Astor, editor of The Observer of London, has written a reasoned view on this point: "It is true that knowledge of actual details of the mass extermina- tion was confined to a few thousands directly or indirectly engaged in this work. It is also true that they learned the plans only at a time when to oppose them would have meant their own death. Some did, and the ashes of Ger- chapter of the Ontario Industrial Edu- cational Council and the awarding of the advanced technical evening class diplomas. The Ontario Industrial Education Council is an organization in which re- presentatives of labor, business and in. dustry can meet the organized represen- tatives of Ontario vocational schools. Its aims are to maintain the standard of training provided students in voca- tional schools, and to promote and de- velop projects for the co-ordination of vocational education and industry. Up to now, finances to cover work of the provincial executive have been donated, with local chapters setting fees to meet their réquirements. The Council is now studying the co-ordination of apprentice training in Ontario. The importance of such education must be self-evident. As Mr. Starr put it, modern standards of living de- pend upon technical skills -- and Canada has never trained enough skilled workers for our own needs, much less to provide substantial technical assis- tance to other countries. Eichmann man soldiers are mingled with those of the Jews. But before the Nazis came to power, the whole German population had been openly confronted with the Nazi anti-Semitic , propositions. These made it perfectly clear that Jews were to be regarded as less human, less en- titled to human rights than others . . . The Nazi attitude to Jews became well known throughout the world. Yet no nation, including those with empty spaces and dependent territories, opened its frontiers full to Jews known to be seeking escape . . . "How can we learn from the past? And what can we learn for the futhre? We should study in a scientific spirit what happened. The fate of the Jews has not yet received adequate academic attention, partly because of the emo- tional numbness with which we are all in some degree afflicted. This cannot be overcome by direct assaults on the emotions, but every relevant fact should be explored, comparative studies made, and the historian's and psychologist's knowledge brought together. We have to know more about the functioning in politics of irrational hate, and that of its opposite, human sympathy. If we are to keep our world relatively free of political hysteria, we must use the only medicine that is effective against hysteria: truthfulness. We must face the facts in all their seriousness and teach them to our young people."

If they derive any pleasure from that study, we suggest that a fit project for them would be the plotting of an at- tempt to rescue Eichmann from his Israeli prison. Not much news has come out of Angola since the first reports of attacks by natives on white settlers and the swift dispatch of Portuguese troops to quell the uprisings.

Death, of course, is the final solution. There undoubtedly have been atro- cities committed by the natives -- possibly they have learned something from their harsh white masters. But it is becoming more and more evident that the Portuguese retaliation makes the native blood-letting look like a minor skirmish, Las wek British political weeklies gave their estimates of the situation in Angola and despite their political dif- ferences and independent research, they agreed. that between 20,000 and 35,000 Negroes have been killed in Portuguese operations against the rebels. The left-wing New Statesman declared . that "some 35,000 virtually defenceless Africans have already been butchered by machine-guns and napalm." A writer in the independent right-wing Spectator quoted the figure of 20,000 as the "most apparently trustworthy and by no means the largest of the figures that have slip- ped through the terror-struck censor- ship." The independent Economist said the killing of Negroes has been "in- discriminate" and put the figure at "thousands or tends of thousands." Other news sources give similar esti- mates.

Better Publicity By DON O'HEARN TORONTO---The Ontario Re- search Foundation hired a pub- licity man a while ago. And the result has been some fascinating news items. A few weeks ago, for instance there was a story about a new process being developed. It, if perfected, would mean that the slag from steel fur- naces could be used for making cement. Then another one came along Jescribing a new use for spruce rk. APPRECIATION NEEDED It is gratifying to see these stories getting out, for inevit- ably they will mean more public appreciation of the foundation. And that is needed. In these changing times of to- day there are few things more portant than research. And the foundation is our big endeavor along this line. It has, in fact, been doing an exceptional job, with practically no publicity at all And if it is to have the growth called for today it, of course, needs the support such publicity brings. One rather surprising thing is INSIDE YOU Mysterious Code Of RH Factors By BURTON H. FERN, MD WHY DID the blood bank tell you CDe when you asked about your Rh blood type? Blood types are named for chemicals inside blood cells. Type A cells contain chemical "A", and type AB both, and type O neither. Some years ago doctors were surprised to discover a new chemical in monkey blood cells. They were even more startled to find this same substance in most human blood cells. They called this chemical the "RH factor" because the orig- inal monkeys belonged to the RHesus family! If your blood cells contain the Rh factor, you're Rh-posi- tive. If the Rh factor is miss- ing, you have Rh-negative blood. SERIOUS ILLNESS The Rh factor grew famous when doctors linked it to seri- ous illness in newborn babies. If Baby's RH-positive blood leaked into Mother's Rh-nega- tive circulation, her system would manufacture antibodies to destroy the foreign Rh-posi- tive cells. But when these anti- bodies spilled over into Baby's circulation they'd destroy his blood, leaving him anemic and jaundiced. The simple Rh factor grew complicated when doctors dis- covered that it was actually made of many different blood factors. These were named RhO, Rhi, Rh2, RhA, and so on. This tangled jungle of medical symbols soon made, ordinary doctors feel like monkeys. British doctors tried to simplify everything by renam- ing the Rh factors "C, D, E and F." A capital letter means the factor is present; a small letter shows it's absent. D THE TROUBLE-MAKER Most Rh trouble is d by Emer Sopha, the Liberal member from Sudbury, is con- tinuing to build his reputation as a man who can really nettle the government. with procedures and the con- duct of business.

REPORT FROM U.K. Mouth Technique For Royal Navy By M. McINTYRE HOOD Special London (Eng.) Correspondent For The Oshawa Times LONDON -- The Royal Navy has gone back to the Bible and has adopted as standard prac- tice for all its personnel a life. saving technique which, accord- ing to the Scriptures, was used by the prophet Elisha about 3,000 years ago. It has already been used successfully in the rescue of one naval frogman after an accident at Portsmouth, This technique is known as mouth-to-mouth artificial respir- ation or rescue breathing. It in- volves blowing air directly into the mouth of a drowned person, at the rate of 10 to 12 blows a minute. The record of how this meth- od of artificial respiration was used by Elisha is found in the fourth chapter of the Second Book of Kings, Verses 34 and 35. These verses tell how Elisha lay down upon a dead child, placed his mouth on the child's mouth and after breathing into it seven times, the child sneezed seven times, opened his eyes and lived. REVIVED IN AUSTRALIA This old Biblican technique was revived by life guards in Australia, and found effective. At a conference held in Sydney, Australia last year, Surgeon- Captain Stanley Miles, director of British naval medical re- search, saw a demonstration. On his return to Britain, he in- augurated experiments at the naval medical research station at Gosport. Now the technique is being taught to every man in the British Navy. Navy doctors found the rescue breathing method simpler than any other known technique. By using it, air could be blown straight into the lungs of a man being towed to shore or into a victim hauled into a boat. It proved more efficient than the Royal Life Saving Society's stan- dard technique of pressing down on the back of the chest at breathing pace. USE DUMMY MAN Frogmen and divers have learned the new techniques very quickly, and other naval person- nel are undergoing courses of training. Mouth-to-mouth respir- ation was demonstrated to 4,000 health experts meeting at Black- pool on a wooden dummy man called Horace--built to try out casualty evacuation aboard the Dreadnought, Britain's first atomic submarine. In between blows into Horace's mouth, Cap- tain Miles, who was there in person to supervise the demon- stration, said: "Once people lose their squeamishness at the idea of touching another person's mouth with their own, this system should catch on fast. It is so simple. It can be done any- where. Even the odd blow of air into a drowning man may be enough to save his life, Eighty per cent of the learners can ap- ply the technique successfully after only one lesson." This demonstration before health experts aroused great in- terest. The general fecling was that if this method was the best for the navy, then the general public should also have the benefit of being instructed in it, BY-GONE DAYS 20 YEARS AGO The Oshawa Girl Guides and Brownies held a garden party on the spacious lawn of Dr. F.
