She Oshawa Cines Published by Canadian Newspapers Limited 86 King St. E., Oshawa, Ontario T. L. Wilson, Publisher SATURDAY, DECEMBER 16, 1961 -- PAGE 6 Eichmann's Punishment Will Not Clear Slate If ever a man deserved the most severe punishment for his crimes, that man is Adolf Eichmann. Punished he will be. But the punishment of one man does not expiate the crime that was not his alone -- the crime that is still being committed in all parts of the world. Let it uot be forgotten that Eich- mann's crime was widely shared -- by his Nazi colleagues who directed him or took his orders, by his countrymen who must have given at least tacit approval to the madness of Hitlerism, by the good people everywhere who were moved to no more than an apathetic "tuttut" in the days when Hitler was building his power on a foundation of corpses, Jewish: and Gentile; and by the good peolpe who continua today to shore up their pitiful little egos by venting their prejudices on other people of different color or creed or belief. One could scarcely pick a more un- prepossessing figure than Eichmann for a symbol, but a symbol he is, neverthe- less. It is the symbol raher than the person who is being punished, just as it was the symbol that was tried by a court that was itself a symbol; Eich- mann stands for the insanity of race hatred, just as the Jewish court stands for the judgment of a slaughtered people, But the destruction of Eichmann, un- fortunately, does not destroy the hatred and prejudice represented by the sym- bol, any more than the judgment of the court destroys the unhappy feeling that its work is not finished because what it set out to punish is not finished. It was possible to bring Eichmann to trial because he was on the losing side in a war. What of the victors? Will the destruction of Eichmann wash away any Western or Russian sins? Will the memory of those murdered by the Stern gang and other terrorists now fade, and the vicious execution of Bernadotte be excused? As Eichmann becomes an evil me- mory, let each of us examine our own evil. The Judgment Of God REV. RICHARD A. BOMBAY Simcoe St. Pentecostal Church, Oshawa The most amazing fact in all the world is the redeeming pardon of God. This is nowhere more cleafly shown than at the Cross Where Christ bore the sins of the whole world in Himself. Pardon does not mean that God is a sentimentalist Who makes light of the evil in the world. It does not mean that the Holy One. condones the lies, the brutalities and the degradations of his- tory that would be to make God evil. The prophetic message of the Old Testament and the Gospel of the Cross in the New Testament alike make it clear that God is a God of judgment. Since He is the King, His kingly rule must mean that the pain and woe re- corded in history are fundamentally the result of sin and is, in fact, God's judg- ment upon sin. The wrath of God is revealed against all unrighteousness. Because this moral order is His creation, sinful men must suffer collectively ag a result of their proud defiance of it. In spite of this selfish, proud rebellion against God, He yearns over sinners, bringing grace to man for his redemp- tion. God's mercy and grace are as great as His majesty and might. But who is like our God, forgiving iniquities and transgressions and sins? Our generation is as proud as any in the history of mankind, and the dread- fu) truth is that we appear totally un- aware of our rébellion. Unless we, in our day, turn in true repentance to God, and implore forgivenness and grace through Christ, we have no better hope. than that generation before the flood which "Knew not until the flood came and took them all away". Old Role For New Wives Working mothers have found an ally in Eric Smit, executive secretary of the Canadian Welfare Council's family and child welfare division, who recently com- pleted an essay on "The Canadian Family" to be discussed at the Canadian Conference on Education in Montreal next year. Mr. Smit likens the working mother tc the pioneer woman who milked the cows, separated cream, churned and wove in order to add income for the family. The working mother "is, in some ways, reverting to a role she once had and essentially lost for a time -- that is participation in the economically productive life of the family." On the family itself, Mr. Smit finds a Gisturbing doubt as to just what the . family is today. Nevertheless, the family still occupies a key position in society. "It is still the primary educational insti- tution in Canada, and also has the primary role in the transmittal of our culture from generation to new genera- tion." In this day of welfare benefits, Mr. Smit advocates still more welfare ser- vices to strengthen family life. "Our knowledge of need outstrips our provi- She Oshawa Times T,,L. WILSON, Publisher C.

Probably this will continue until public policy recognizes that families are interdependent, not independent, and that rugged, self-sufficient individualism is a' thing of the. past." The family was gradually changing from the traditional, one in which the father was the boss to the "developmen- tal" family in which husband and wife ate seen as partners. This resulted in some confusion of roles between husband and wife "which, in turn, could make it more difficult for children to achieve their sex identification and differentia- tion of roles." He says some Montreal families show- ed more emotionally healthy adoles- cence among children of traditional families. But other authorities found the developmental farnily better adapted to modern conditions. Absence of a grand- mother or other adult woman in the home with the mother was another difference in the modern family. Despite the advantages of "push-button kitchens" today's mothers "lack what was once the normal companionship of other adult women in the home. All the household gadgets yet invented cannot act as a baby sitter or take over the responsi- bilities.of motherhood when the mother needs either a rest or an operation."

France Not Enthusiastic Over U.K. Euromart Bid PARIS (CP)--Viewed through French field - glasses, Britain's bid to clamber aboard the Com- mon Market bandwagon ap- pears "'doomed to success." The wry wording reflects Gal- lic gloom over what is re- garded as the inevitable end of the Brussels negotiations -- re- luctant accepiance of a country with whom: the entente isn't al- ways cordiale. Traditionally nervous of per- fidious Albion, some French- men feel British entry will "water the wine" of a vintage six-nation brew. Britons, they contend, simply are not true Europeans. "Frankly, we fear that the British may turn out to be rid- ing a Trojan horse," said a youthful executive in a promi- nent Paris financial house. SUSPICION AND ALARM After observing British hesiat- tions about joining the club from London, it is a curious ex- perience to cross the Channel and sample French reactions. Though some genuinely wel- come the overture from a na- tion they regard as tolerant, stable and fundamentally de- cent, there are many who teeter between suspicion and alarm. A Paris evening newspaper commented caustically that Britain approached Europe with "heavy eyelid and watery eye." Level - headed Frenchmen, chatting with a reporter, sought to explain their reserve. They told how France, jarred to th edge of neurosis by military setbacks, German occupation and post-war instability, felt it had regained its soul in the new Europe. France is consciously "Euro- peanizing" itself. There is a burgeoning affinity between Teuton and Gaul, between the restless, troving French intel- ligence and implacable Ger- man thoroughness. French na- tional spirit. always a_ tricky and volatile commodity, seeks a broader context. CHAUVINISM FADING La vieille France, the old na- tion of bourgeois tradition and clinging conservatism, yields to a younger generation intent on results rather than _ prickly chauvinism. There is enhanced interest in motor cars, rock 'n' roll and the latest dance craze, the "tweest " A demographic revolution has taken place In 1940, students in schools and universities 'to- talled 6,500,000; by 1970 the number will be nearly double. Youth is filtering into positions of authority, and Europe is its oyster. "For energetic Frenchmen, the Common Market opens. up a whole new frontier," a Paris diplomat said France is less parochial, more cosmopolitan. It used to be hard to convince a patriotic Frenchman that anything worth- while existed outside his own country. Now he travels more and doesn't hesitate to borrow from other places. Pondering on changing at- titudes, an experienced obser- ver concluded philosophically that France after generations of remaining "vertical" -- static maining "vertical'" static and inward-looking -- now is "horizontal," more mobile and outward-looking. "Youth is catching the bug," he said. "People say the young don't care about anything, but they do. Society is acquiring a new mobility. Through its Eu- ropean efforts, France is re- covering virtues that we have known, a vitality, an expan- siveness that in past centuries found its outlet in colonization." Science and technology are transforming the face of a France that only a decade ago was described us one of the backward countries of the West- ern'world. One problem is to extend development evenly over the country, particularly the un- derdeveloped areas of southwest where drinking water is a luxury. The suggestion that "'Ameri- canization" has triumphed is discounted, What is really hap- pening, one Frenchman told a reporter, is that the country is seeking American efficiency in a European framework, dis- carding "undesirable manifes- tations" such as tailfins, ice water and frozen foods. When a housewife speaks with almost mystical rapture of "'la bonne soupe," she doesn't mean something that comes out of a can. OUT OF STEP Something of the same pa- tronizing attiutde is extended to Britain, regarded almost pity- ingly as a country that has somehow missed the European bus, that is not in step with the rhythms of the new industrial age. "I feel infinitely more at home anywhere on the Conti- nent than in. Britain," said a representative Frenchman. - "When I cross the Channel-I enter a country where people drive on the wrong side, where kilometres are called miles, ki- . los become pounds and units of money. utterly lack consist- ency." Other animated objections are to unpredictable pub hours; the somnolent British suburbs with their huddled litlte houses, cement statuary in the. gardens and hideous wooden fences; the highly expendable water cress draped soddenly over sand- wiches; and streets empty be- fore midnight, "where not even a cat moves." Perhaps a_ less prejudiced fear is that Britain, "trailing" her Commonwealth behind her, will inhibit the European im- pulse to political unity. It may annoy President de Gaulle, who could find in the Common Market a_ substitute for frustrated French "gran- deur." One iheory. is that the French president tacitly leads the six-nation European com- munity on the understanding that he keeps a close eye on German interests. This would help explain his intransigence about negotiations on Berlin. INSIDE YOU Internal Passage Of Odd Objects By BURTON H. FERN, MD "GAN I afford it?

'Correspondent For 'The Oshawa Times LONDON -- The British pub- lic Lave a strong hope that the meeting of Prime Minister Mac- millan with President Kennedy of the United States in Bermuda on Dec. 21 and 22 may be the fore-runner of, further moves which will reduce world tensions -and ease the cold war. It is no secret that Mr, Macmillan be- lieves that the longer negotia- tions with Russia are delayed, the poorer will be the prospects of success. He sees his meeting with President Kennedy as an occasion for cutting through any diplomatic obstacles on the way towards a meeting with Mr. Khayshchev. Nothing is being revealed, of course, as to the subjects which will be discussed by the two heads of government when they meet under the sun'in Bermuda. But two things are known. One is that the British prime minis- ter would like to see, as soon as seems likely to be profitable, a meeting of Khrushchev, Ken- nedy, de. Gaulle and himself. The other is that de Gaulle is not at all favorably inclined to- wards such a meeting. As a way out of this impasse, it is suggested that even a meeting between Kennedy and Khrush- chev, with Kennedy fully brief- ed on the views of his western allies, would be acceptable to the British government. VIEWS ON BERLIN It is generally accepted that Berlin will figure largely in the Bermuda _ conversations. The two heads of government will have before them whatever has come out of the discussions in Paris during the past week be- tween the foreign ministers of Britain, France, West Bermany and the United States. That may color their talks on Berlin, be- cause it is imperative that, no matter what may .be decided, these four countries must show a united front on this critical question. In government circles here, the importance of Berlin as a subject of the Macmilian-Ken- nedy talks is being played down, deliberately. It is accepted that, in the end, decisions may have to be taken without the full con- currence and co-operation of France. The issues are very delicately balanced and no onc, on either side, wants to say or do anything which may upsct that balance in the wrong direc- tion. SELWYN'S DILEMMA The month of December is al- é ways a trying month for the treasury department o! the Brit- ish government, and the chan- cellor of the exchequer. This is the month in which planning for the next year's budget is start- ed. It begins with the depart- mental estimates for the nert year's spending being placed be- fore the financial secretary to the treasury. Upon these esti- mates, and what he does with them, depends the kind of bud- get Selwyn Lloyd will present to the country next April. This year, Mr. Lloyd faces a greater dilemma than any chan- cellor has known for some years. He has to decide whether to frame his budget in keeping with the needs of the national economy or sacrifice his prin- ciples for the- welfare of the Conservative party. If he sticks to his principles that there must be the strictest economy in gov- ernment departments, and that there must be a pause in both public and private spending, 1t will be an austerity budget. But if there are possibilities of a general election before the 1963 budget, _ political expediency: 4, might dictate a different course. PERSONAL PROBLEM There is also a personal prob- lem for Mr. Lloyd to face. His popularity has dropped to a low ebb since his pay pause and economic restriction measures were announced in July. An austerity budget will not help to restore it. And there might be a temptation to make some spec- tacular concessions to public opinion through the budget, in order to win back public favor. QUEEN'S PARK Full Of Errors By DON O'HEARN TORONTO -- This was .writ- ten before Premier Robarts made his announcement on crime. It was done so intentionally -- so that there can be no question of second thinking, and because there is an important point to be brought out. The point? That commissions, judicial inquiries, or any other type of investigations are not absolute. Not the end-all. They are just as variable as humans themselves. They can be good, poor, thor- ough or superficial, strong or weak--and often are just about middling. GOD'S TRUTH? We are inclined to be a lazy- minded bunch in this society of ours, and perhaps this is the cause. Whatever it is we are inclined to give anything of an "'official" nature the status of infallability. Anything that comes in the form. of a "report" we are liable to accept as God's truth. It is an infallibility we also give to the bench, and even are inclined to give to statements-- no matter how assinine they may be--which are delivered in these legisative als i Speaking as a member of the public-at-large one can say this probably stems from the fact we are mentally lazy, and really don't want to take the effort to recognize that all "reports" are based on human investigation and human decision. If we did recognize this we would have to make the mental effort to decide just how good they are. And it is easier to accept them holus-bolus. SEE THROUGH Why bring this up? Well, the upc6ming inquiry into crime promises to be the most controversfal in recent years, at least. There will be political accu- sations thrown back, forth and over the boards.

This is a good point to keep in mind under any circumstan- ces today. We are having more and more agama boards and reports. To keep a balanced eye on government you simply must be able to look at them with an objective eye and try and see through 'them. And it ain't easy. Knowing Mr. Lloyd and his fixed loyalty to patriotic prin- ciples which make the welfare of the country come first and foremost, I feel quite sure that if an austerity budget is what the country still needs in Apri), that is exactly what it will get, regardless of the effect on his party's political fortunes Po} his own personal popularity. GAITSKELL NOT HELPFUL To say the least, Mr. Gaitskell is not doing anything to make if easy for Mr. Lloyd to succeed with his pay pause. policy, or to help the government to over- come the country's economic difficulties. If anything, he is stirring up trouble for the gov- ernment on the wages front. On the day after a govern- ment appeal had been made to the National Coal Board to keep the government's pay pause policy in mind when dealing with a wage claim from the National Miners' Union, Mr. Gaitskell spoke in London at a luncheon of the Coal Industry Society. In his speech, he went completely against any freezing of wages. He said he thought that substantial increases would have to be made in wages to attract men to work in the coal pits. "I am not interfering with Lord Robens of the government over the negotiations at the moment, but it is certain that over the past few years some 150,000 men have left the coal industry. I think you have to pay substantial increases in order to get people to do a job . and the labor forces have to be higher paid otherwise the industry would not attract men in a fully employed com- munity." This statement is accepted as encouragement from the opposi- tion leader to the miners to do the very thing which Mr. Lloyd believes will bring disaster to Britain's economy and may lead to devaluation of sterling. LOSING LEADERS One by one, prominent Labor- ites are dropping out of political life and finding other more at- tractive' fields of activity. Lord Robens started this when he be- came chairman of the National Coal Board. Sir Geoffrey de Freitas, another staunch Gait- skell man, accepted the govern- ment post of High Commissioner to Ghana. Hilary Marquand, an- other Labor MP, has left to take up an important United Nations post in Geneva. Now George 'Chetwynd, MP, the party's deputy spokesman on civil avia- tion, has resigned his seat in ng parliament to become director of the North-East Development. - Council. This will mean 'a by- election in his constituency uf Stockton-on-Tees where, in 1945, he defeated Mr. Macmillan and which he has held ever since. His 1959 majority, in a straight fight with the Tories, was 3,277. That makes four men in the top ranks of the Labor party to leave it this year. Without cast- ing any reflection on these men or the party, we are reminded of a saying relative to what happens to a sinking ship.
