She Oshawa Times Published by Canadian Newspapers Limited 86 King St. E., Oshawa, Ontario T. L. Wilson, Publisher TUESDAY, MARCH 20, 1962 -- PAGE 6 Special Consideration For Douk Terrorists Justice Minister Fulton's plan to ' build a special prison in British Colum- bia for Doukhobor terroists is not getting any cheers in the coast pro- vince. B.C. residents resent what they think is preferential treatment for the terrorists. Typical is the comment of the Vancouver Sun: "Mr Fulton proposes that Sons of Freedom convicted of bombings should be given a privileged position in the Canadian penitentiary system. He is prepared to settle them at Columbia Valley, near Cultus Lake, in a style better than that to which they are accustomed. Here terrorist convicts will prepare their own speciality foods in surroundings slightly more res- tricted but considerably more pleasant than their native village of Krestova." One bedevilled RCMP constable at Kootenay was quoted as saying, "We won't need a fence to keep them in, but we'll need one to keep the others out." Mr. Fulton defends his plan by say- ing that Freedomite prisoners would disrupt our penal reform system if introduced into the general peniten- tiary system. The Sun thinks that 'this clearly implies that penitentiary authorities across Canada have told him they can't cope with Freedom- ites... Let him replace these civil servants with others capable of main- taining discipline in our prisons with- out fear or favor for special classes of convicts." British Columbia's policy in recent years has been to treat the Doukhobor offenders strictly as offenders, bound by the same laws as other Canadians and subject to the same punishments. Earlier, concessions were made to the Sons of Freedom, but apparently these were only taken as signs of weakness or capitulation by the Douk- hobor bombers and arsonists. The enforcement of law, without any religious or political considera- tions, seems to be the proper answer to the Doukhobor madness, Rationing For Cubans There were posters in Havana not so long ago which proclaimed: "The revolution can guarantee people six fundamental things -- clothes, shoes, food, medicine, education and recre- ation." We do not know if the posters have been torn down or not, but if they are still there the Cubans must surely be reading them with bitter amusement. There is less food, among other things, in Cuba now than during the "hell of Batista" (Castro phrase). Twenty-four ounces of beans a month: Nothing is likely to hit the average Cuban so directly as this. Not a recent elevenfold increase in low-income taxes. Nor news that the sugar crop has fallen some half a million tons short of minimum expec- tation. Nor shortages of clothes, near- empty stores, one-meal restaurants. These failures of the revolution were portents; the severe rationing of beans, rice, and cooking oil is a climax of disappointment -- a thrice-daily reminder of mismanagement and isola- tion, the Christian Science Monitor says. It had been clear for some time that some such drastic move was coming. The replacement of Senior Castro as head of the Agrarian Re- form Institute indicated that within the hierarchy. the maximum leader had been forced to realize the failure of his regime's agricultural impro- visations. The steady rise of doctrinaire Com- munist managers traces to his mis- management in almost every sector of the Cuban economy, Disinterested observers in Europe and Asia will doubtless wonder whether Castroist bungling or Amer- ican sanctions are chiefly responsible. Industrial dislocations have been largely due to the Cuban-United States rupture. But the great food failure is strictly a Castroist-Com- munist achievement. While the supply of butter has dropped to a quarter of an ounce a week the supply of guns has soared. The new collective leadership of Cuba has at its disposal the best-armed air force and ground force in Latin America. Cubans can't eat tanks any more than Eastern Europeans can. But clearly Cubans are not yet desperate or disillusioned enough to risk rising against the tanks. This gives the new Communist - dominated 25- man directorate some time to try to in- crease food rations. Mathematics And Marx Mathematics may pull the rug out from under Marxism as politics has been unable to do. This is the fascinat- ing conclusion of a study of the new methods by which the Soviet Union is trying to solve its production problems. The author, Robert W. Campbell, associate professor of economics at Indiana University, says the Soviets had a "long aversion to any introduc- tion of mathematical reasoning into analysis of economic relationships." Since mathematics is ideologically neutral, it might not conform itself to Marxist economic dogma, particu- larly the assumption that labor alone creates value. Meanwhile, Soviet planners were The Oshawa Times T. L, WILSON, Publisher C.

In despera- tion they turned at last to the mathe- maticians., Those worthies supplied them with allocation and production controls that really work, but alas they plainly imply the value of land and capital, the Washington Post reports. Multipliers which were developed to determine what machines should do what portiyns of what specific jobs bore a disconcerting resemblance to Western prices. Semantically disguised as good Marxism, these treacherous Western ideas are being hotly disseminated "through articles, papers at confer- ences, and educational programs for training young economists in the new mathematical methods." Mr. Campbell does not believe that even the cleverest Soviet word-jug- glers can succeed indefinitely in call- ing a spade a people's erg. But as he says, "the planners feel so strongly the need for improve- ments in calculation and allocaton that they must discover a more sophis- ticated theory of value than that willed them by Marx. "It is to this end that they have delivered themselves into the hands of the mathematicians." In the end, he suggests, they may not be able to escape the implications of a value theory that works, and its superiority to one that, . however / Marxist it may be, does not. 22% " ti * yon JACK b To Stary, tiiyG P kite SHOULD CON ry Be HONORED, Up 4 < Ss DANCE OF THE SEVEN VEILS YOUR HEALTH Persistent Acne Result Of Allergy By JOSEPH G. MOLNER, M.D. Dear Dr. Molner: I am a woman 30 years old and from the age of 16 I have suffered with cystal acne. Besides black- heads, oily skin, enlarged pores and pimples, I had cysts on my face, back and neck. An excellent dermatologist tried everything known. In addi- tion to the usual treatments (diet, sulfated medication, hyper - allergenic cosmetics, soaps, etc.) he experimented with antibiotic shots, hormones, the '"'tar-cream" treatment and others. Nothing worked. One day a girl friend men- tioned that her brother had se- vere eczema when he was a baby and the pediatrician pre- scribed a diet free of eggs, but- ter, butterfat and the like. I didn't have eczema, but I did have a skin condition. I stopped eating eggs and switched to non-fat. milk. Un- fortunately it is almost impossi- ble to stop eating all foods with eggs, milk and butterfat, but I do my best. Once in a while in an un- avoidable situation I eat an egg or two. A few days later a cyst appears. Otherwise my skin remains clear and for the first time in years I can wear a low-backed dress and a mini- mum of make-up. I know how thrilled I am with these results and know others can be helped. Please print this along with your comments. B.A.B. Gladly. It's an instructive let- ter--but I want readers to get the right lesson from it. The lesson is not that eggs and-or butterfat often cause acne! Acne is primarily a skin prob- lem of adolescents, due to ex- cessive secretion of skin oils at that age. It usually subsides with time, aided by proper skin hygiene. When acne persists past ado- lescence, allergy, rather than the more ordinary, transient causes must be considered. That's the real significance of today's letter. Eggs and milk products are rather common culprits, rela- tively speaking, in touching off PARAGRAPHICAL WISDOM If you have been having diffi- culty in getting Junior to get up on school days, it is sug- gested you try waking him and counting down from 10 to blast- off.

They are also foods that are difficult to avoid and because of this their allergenic effects are not always suspected as readily as would be less common foods. Chocolate and sea foods also can touch off acne. Foods and vitamin mixtures containing io- dine may also be at fault. This is another of several reasons why I keep reminding readers that I do not favor a "daily io- dine ration." Indeed, some peo- ple must even avoid using io- dized salt. And there are numer- ous others. Yet it must not be assumed that all acne cases are allergy. A great many are not. And, in passing, I point out that the emotional tensions of adoles- cence, and they are often se- vere, can have a lot to do with acne. How does this work phys- iologically? I don't know, but every doctor has observed that it happens. Dear Dr. Molner: I have heard that a person can be an alcoholic and not know it. Is this true? Would there be any signs that I could see? MRS, H. No, no signs to look for-- other than the really important one: When a person depends on alcohol, and thinks he has to have it, either all the time or at various periods, he's an "alco- holic." There are, for example, people-who work every day but mess up their lives by occa- sional binges, or week-end drinking. They are alcoholics, too. NOTE TO S. B.

McINTYRE HOOD Special London (Eng.) Correspondent For The Oshawa Times NOTTINGHAM -- Notting- hamshire officials of the British Legion are waging a wordy battle with the vicars of two churches in the county over what has become a traditional Remembrance Day _ service hymn, "O Valiant Hearts". It is invariably used at Remem- brance Day services and at British Legion memorial occa- sions, and it is used just as much in Canada at services ar- ranged by the Canadian Legion. The two vicars who have aroused the ire of British Legion officials have banned the sing- ing of "O Valiant Hearts" at QUEEN'S PARK Education Costs Raising Questions By DON O'HEARN TORONTO--Only a fool, and a very rash one at that, would talk against education as such today. And this applies partic- ularly in politics. Education is strictly untouch- able. Like good works, every- body has to be for it. Which could be too bad, quite too bad. To put it in an unedu- cated way, we could be getting education slap-happy. This year's budget, as noted yesterday, shows an alarming growth in spending. And the big factor behind the growth is the mush-rooming cost of edu- cation. Which means that sooner or later we are going to be forced to take a very serious look at education and all its aspects-- and particularly at what is es- sential and what tends to be wasteful in its great expansion. It probably will take some form of force to make any large number of people think in down-to-earth terms of educa- tion spending. But this force unquestionably will come from money and the large amounts of it that govern- ments are spending. There still is a large uncer- tainty, however, as to just when it will come. For this will only be when the public awakens to the fact that extraordinarily large amounts of its take-home pay is quietly being transferred to' government -- much, much more than it is at all aware of. Then, presumably, it will. be- gin asking itself some of these questions: Why do our very costly uni- versity plants have to lie rela- tively idle for a large part of the time-can't we have a 12- month university year? Why do many university pro- fessors lecture only a a rela- tively few hours a week? NEED IS GRADES? Why do we have to have grade 13 when other provinces produce a high standard of ed- ucated men and women with grade 12. Why is néarly a quarter of our secondary school curricula filled with fringe courses "(Cit- izenship", dress-making etc.)? Do we have to have-or can we afford - swimming pools (they certainly haven't been winning us any olympics or healthy youth), large audito- riums and other costly educa- tion luxuries? Should we put education on such a pedestal that lo- cal school boards have practi- cally an open-and uncontrolled- door to the public purse? Do we have to go whole-hog, keep - up - with - the - Jones's? Are we copying our wealthy- and extravagant - U.S. cousins and setting our educational standards and facilities by Hol- lywood standards? Watch. You will see these questions being asked more and more as time goes by. For they have to be asked. Government spending can't keep going up forever. And don't say this is old-time reactionary thinking It isn't. But it is looking at the glamor- puss without her make-up.) Hindus Getting Ready For Purification Dip BOMBAY (CP)--A small town in the foothills of the Himalayas in northern India will shortly become the focus of unprece- dented religious fervor. Some 5,000,000 Hindus from all over Asia and Africa will travel to Hardwar between April 2 and April 19 for a "'purificatory" dip in the sacred waters of the Ganges. The fes- tival is called Kumbh Mela. It is the ambition of every devout Hindu to participate in the bathing festival. According to mythology and the Scriptures, a trip to temple-studded Hard- war and a dip in the icy waters of the Ganges cleanses one of all sins. The festival poses a major challenge to the Indian govern- ment. For several months, gov- ernment departments have been busy devising methods to cope with the massive pilgrim traffic. The railways expect some 2,000,000 to travel to Hardwar from the far corners of the country. Additional platforms are being built in many stations GALLUP POLL Russian Peace Claims Derided By By The Canadian Institute of Public Opinion Cynicism towards Russia's radio claims that it wants to end the cold war and seeks only peace has grown notably in the past few years. Today, a hefty 73 per cent of the adult population labels such state- ments as "only propaganda'. In 1956 many thousands less held this view, with 61 per cent reporting the same reaction. Only 14 per cent think Rus- sian protestations are sincere, although, as reported earlier by the Gallup Poll a majority of the people think that it will be possible to reach a_ peaceful settlement with Russia. These facts of increasing doubt on Russian sincerity are shown in the results from two identical studies, one just com- pleted, tie other made in 1956. To find out if Canadian view- points were being affected by recent developments in the cold war, interviewers for the Poll trudged pavements and coun- try by-ways to ask a sample of men and women in their homes the same question as was used with another sample six years ago. 21-29 Years Years 18% 70 1 2 1 6 8 100% Sincere Only propaganda Qualified answers Undecided Majority "THE RU SIAN RADIO OFTEN CLAIMS THAT RUS- SIA WANTS TO END THE COLD WAR AND SEEKS ONLY PEACE. DO YOU FEEL THAT THIS IS_ SIN- CERE OR DO YOU THINK IT Is ONLY PROPAGANDA?" A comparison of Canadian attitudes then and now shows that a sizable segment of the public has moved from the un- decided group, and now has an opinion -- mostly a belief that such statements are propagan- da, rather than sincere.

Prime Minister Macken- zie King told Parliament 23 years ago today--in 1939-- Canada would regard any attack on Britain as an at- tack on the Commonwealth. Within six months the Sec- ond World War had broken out and Canada had de- clared war on the Axis powers. 1945--German resistance west of the Rhine River collapsed and the end of the Second World War was al- most in sight. 1602--The Dutch East In- dia Company was formed. en route to Hardwar. In the town itself, hundreds of workers have been busy day and night enlarging transit facilities. The majority of the pilgrims will reach Hardwar by bullock carts and on foot, some walking more than 100 miles. A group of devout Hindus proposed to walk from Poona, a distance of 1,000 miles. The health department is tak- ing elaborate precautions to en- sure that no epidemics break out. Every pilgrim entering the Hardwar area will have to pro- duce a smallpox vaccination certificate. Temporary hospitals are being built at several places. Stampeding by crowds will pose an ever - present danger. Some years back, hundreds were killed in such an incident. Some 15,000 policemen will be drafted for duty. For the first time helicopters will be used to co-ordinate safety measures. A large number of American, British and Canadian tourists are expected to visit Hardwar during the colorful festival. For a foreigner, the Kumbh Mela will remain an exciting mem- ory. Five hundred caparisoned elephants are being made ready to carry the various mahants, heads of the religious sects; from meeting to meeting. Some of the religious congregations will be attended by anything from 5,000 to 100,000 people. all Remembrance Day services in their churches. One of them is Rev. Archibald Wakefield, vicar of Cotgrave, Nottingham- shire. He made this comment on the hymn: "There is a lot of sob-stuff in it, and it rakes up things that are, perhaps, best forgotten." CAN GO ELSEWHERE The other vicar, Rev. Roy Hunt, 49, of three parishes near Langar, Northamptonshire, was quite emphatic about his ban on the well-known hymn. He said: "If the British Legion wants to take the services elsewhere we should be sorry to lose them. But I stand by what the church says. There is no evidence that those who have died have any knowledge whatever of what is taking place on the earth. The Church has not place for pray- ers. for the dead." He was backed up by the sec- retary of the Church Society, who said: "Mr. Hunt is not alone in his decision." Mr. Hunt has banned the com- plete hymn at his three church- es, but Mr. Wakefield has modi- fied his ban, and has only allowed certain verses to be sung, eliminating two of them. FAVORITE HYMN Legion officials say that this is one of the favorite hymns of their organization. Alderman Frank Rudder, chairman of Nottinghamshire British Legion Council, said: "I have advised branches which have difficulty over this to go to another church. It is a touching hymn, and so it should be when men have been pre- pared to give up their lives in the cause of their country. I get a little naughty with those peo- ple who talk about sob-stuff in a hymn when people sing it and believe in it." The Legion has received sup- port from another vicar in the same county. It comes from Rev. Gerald Marson, who is the vicar at Granby. His comment was: "AS an ex-army chaplain, I think it is a very fine hymn. It is silly to object to it." So now over to the officers of the Canadian Legion. What do they think of the action of these two vicars in banning a hymn which is sung at Canadian Le gion memorial services all over Canada? milder finer hetter flavour jis CANADA'S MOST WANTED CIGAR FOR OVER 25 YEARS AND IN BOXES OF FIFTY Travel by Train to the ATLANTIC PROVINCES Enjoy modern equipment -- travel relaxed arrive refreshed.
