2 THE OSHAWA TIMES, Soturdey, May 26, 1962 GOOD EVENING _By JACK GEARIN "TOMMY" DOUGLAS PACKS 'EM IN AT OCVI T. C. "Tommy" Douglas proved conclusively once again Thursday night hat a top-flight political speaker (and they are far and few between) oan still draw a big crowd, des- pite television and the general apathy of the public towards political meetings. -- The national leader of the NDP's gave the Ontario riding section of his party a good shot in the arm with his perforance at OCVI. He is without a peer on the Federal hustings today as an oratorical spellbind- er, can literally hold an au- dience in the palm of his hands, He gave one of his better performances Thursday while maintaining that the NDP's were rallying support across Canada in a crusade for peace and against accept- ance of nuclear arms by Canada's armed forces at home or abroad. ° The dynamic Mr. Douglas LIL A took time out to pay high tribute to the Party's On- AILEEN HALL tario riding candidate, Miss University of Edinburgh graduate in English and Mathe- matics on leave of absence from the OCVI faculty for the campaign's duration), who also drew solid applause forsome well-spoken words on education. Said Mr. Douglas: "We badly need another Agnes Mac- Phail in the movement -- in my opinion Miss Aileen Hall could some day play such an important role." This was, by far, the biggest political meeting of the current campaign in Ontario riding -- conservative estimates place dthe crowd at approximately 650, but Clifford Pilkey, NDP campaign manager said that the total attendance was closer to 800. There were some unmistakable signs of trade union solid- arity in support of Miss Hall and the NDP's with the joint appearance on the platform of Mr. Pilkey (president of the Oshawa and District Labor Council) and Malcolm Smith, two gentlemen with widely divergent views in the tumultuous political world of Local 222, UAW-CLC (where Mr. Smith currently reigns as president). VISITORS FIND OSHAWA 'CULTURE BARREN' Mayor Christine Thomas (fresh from an informal two- hour chat with some members of the visiting Common- wealth Study Conference Group, Ict out a little secret Wednesday at the annual Civic Night Dinner of the Oshawa Builders' Association. Several of our Commonwealth visitors were puzzled by Oshawa's general lack of a cultural atmosphere. "We are an odd aggrega- tion in this City," said Her Worship in her introductory remarks (as some wondered if she was about to launch into a tirade against some political foes). "What kind of people are we? We seem to be a breed unto ourselves. We. have been -fortunate to be so prosperous.

Big Political Guns Starting Rapid Fire By THE CANADIAN PRESS nipeg The. hustings echoed like a shooting gallery Friday night-- with the big guns of the politi-| cal parties sniping at one. an- other's policies. Here's how the shots sounded: Prime Minister Diefenbaker| said, in a national TV address, | that the Liberal party's '"'take- a-stand-for-tomorrow"' slogan is like the lines from Shakes- \peare's Macbeth -- "Tomorrow and tomorrow and tomorrow |, . .

She paused a moment to dramatize her words. "I wonder if we are making the most of what we have," she continued. "'We take so much for granted; if anything goes wrong, we could be in terrible trouble. "I have been talking with members of the Commonwealth Study Group and they have been throwing question at me -- some of these questions are puzzling to me, as they must be to you.

"Have we forgotten how to play? Do we only live to make money? Oshawa has puzzled these distinguished visit- ors. They don't know what breed of people we are. They are puzzied that we are devoid of culture." John Caulfield Smith, executive vice-president of the National. Homebuilders' Association, replied in part to Her Worship's comments when he said: "Perhaps this is all explained by saying that, first of all, we are members of a materialistic society and, as such, are pioneers in our particular way of life -- perhaps we are an- xious to acquire.a grubstake first before we set out to ac- quire that much-desired goal of culture." DON JACKSON STILL IN AMATEUR RANKS Don Jackson's announcement Thursday that he will soon turn pro was "'a little premature," his mother, Mrs. George J. Jackson, said.

LOW-BLOW PROPAGANDA INFILTRATES |AREA There are some unmistakable signs that the Federal election campaign in Ontario riding is swinging into high gear. The rumor-monger factories --, a traditional institution in most campaigns -- are busy again disseminating political propaganda, much of it insidious, deliberately malicious, without fact or foundation. This behind-the-scenes, mud+hrowing ritual (purpose of which is to win elections by subtle slander and villification) Spares no candidate, party, or individual -- it delights the low-blow boys as mudh as it shocks citizens with a high regard for democratic procedure. This has been one of the disturbing hazards of political life since long before granddad's day; if history repeats it- self, it is Hable to get much worse before it gets better, especially in Ontario riding. FROM THE HUSTINGS OF ONTARIO COUNTY: Labor Minister Starr leaves here tomorrow for a cam- paign tour of Western Canada points and will return next Saturday. He attended an informal get-together of 125 members of the North Pickering PC Association in Brougham Thursday, -- party supporters brought sandwiches, pies and coffee Liberal Candidate Norman Cafik was busy Friday at- tending political teas and knocking on doors in Whitby and Whitby East Township.

Raymond Doucet and Gilbert |Gauthier were found guilty of inciting the crew of the Wheat King to desert at suburban Le- vis last June 6 and then har- boring deserters.
