She Oshawa Zimes Published by Canadian Newspapers Limited 86 King St. E., Oshawa, Ontario T. L. Wilson, Publisher SATURDAY, JUNE 30, 1962 -- PAGE 6 Health Minister Talks Plainly To Colleagues Dr. Matthew Dymond, Ontario's minister of health, did some plain speaking at the recent medical meet- ing in Winnipeg. He told the doctors assembled there that the reluctance of Canada's medical profession to play an active role in preventive medicine had forced governments to undertake wider responsibilities for public health, particularly in such areas as mental illness and retarda- tion, and tuberculosis. His disturbing phrase was that too many doctors have been more interested in sickness than in health. The doctors would do well to ponder Dr. Dymond's words. Some of them may try to dismiss him as "vote- catching politician,' but if they do they will be making a grave mistake. He is able to look at the problem of medical care from two viewpoints, that, of a distinguished public servant and that of a physician with exten- sive experience as a family doctor. And we know him to be as deeply interested in his medical profession as in his duties as a member of the Ontario Legislature and of the pro- vineial government. Private and public health insurance plans have come into being because they were needed. Doctors will not stop their development and expan- sion simply by attacking them, but doctors can help to ensure that there is wise and enlightened development by assisting the administrators and legislators. War In Broadcasting What seems to have been under- ground war between the Board of Broadcast Governors and the Cana- dian Broadcasting Corporation is now out in the open, following the resigna- tions.of two members of the Board. The members resigned because they thought the CBC should be granted a licence for a. TV outlet in Quebec City. The Board had delayed approval. The CBC claimed it needed the station to carry out its role as a national broadcasting system. The basic trouble is that the Broad- casting Act, which gives authority to both 'the BBG and the CBC, is im- precise in defining their roles. The Act deals with the functions of both, in two separate parts, and the CBC interprets this 'as giving Canadian broadcasting a two-board system. The BBG, of course, considers it has control over both the CBC and private broadcasting, and that was undoub- tedly the Parliament's intention when it passed the legislation setting up the BBG. Dr. Andrew Stewart, Board chair- man, says that if the BBG and the CBC can't resolve their differences, there should be a reference to Par- liament. One of the jobs of the new Parliament should be to clarify the Act. A Board without authority over the CBC is not worth having. Point System Reminder This weekend officially starts what traffic experts call the "peak summer motoring vacation period." And a timely warning comes from Trans- port Minister Rowntree. The highway holiday parade also marks the start of the revised driver demerit point system and the new Motor Vehicle Accident Claims Fund, he reminds us. Another warning, given by a speak- er at a recent road safety workshop, is this: 'Too much faith is placed by too many people in the infallibility of traffic devices. Everything must be done to instil the thought of 'de- fensive driving' in the minds of all motorists and pedestrians to reduce Ontario's accident toll. Just because a signal is green to you, remember that for whatever reason, the motorist ap- proaching the red signal may not stop. Don't bet your life on a traffic control device." There is no lack of warnings and advice. Transport department offi- cials, for example, are urging ail motorists to pay heed to the centre line when driving on highways -- "'it is illegal, except when passing, . to cross the centre line and then only if the line is broken." Still another reminder: - "Getting on or off an expressway is a little like getting in or out of a revolving door. Wait your chance to enter, and always signal before you move to change lanes or move to get off the expressway." And if you forget all else, remember that under the revised point system, a new array of upgraded point- totals face motorists, as well as in- troduction of many new violations aimed at cutting the accident toll. For Jittery Customers A new hostelry in Chicago expects to attract such well-heeled guests that it prdposes to keep a qualified psych- iatrist on the premises. The presump- tion 'ds, apparently, that only execu- tive-types with handsome expense accounts need psychiatric treatment so badly that they cannot spend a few days away from home without looking for a friendly couch. The Hamilton Spectator hopes that "some of our Canadian hostelries will provide weary executives with the same psychiatric treatment," because "we have found from experience that hotel detectives are not always very understanding or considerate. But psychiatrists are a different breed entirely." She Oshawa Fimes * . L. WILSON, Publisher - ©. GWYN KINSEY, Editor The Oshowo Times combining The Oshawa.

Other Editors' Views 200 LOADED. DICE (Ottawa Journal) Men have been shot for having one pair of loaded dice in their pockets. But a witness before the Ontario royal commission on crime breezily explained that the 100 pair of loaded dice police found in his home: were ones he just happened to have lying around.the house for no particular reason. Wasn't it Jimmy Durante who did a circus act in which he entered lead- ing a large and garishly decorated elephant? At the question, 'Where are you going with that elephant'? he stopped, frowned in puzzlement, smiled in innocence and said, "What elephant"? Bible Thought He that raised up the Lord Jesus shall raise up us also. -- II. Corinth- jans 4:14, The proof of Eternl Life is the res- urected Lord, Ee | oe Hig undamentally it is not a special privilege reserved for newspaper pub- of the Press AX of the press'? \A/ : ya precisely is meant by that familiar phrase, 'freedom lishers. It is rather a phase of a much larger freedom -- the freedom of all men to speak their minds openly and without fear. The press claims no right which should not belong to every citizen in a democracy. But freedom of the press is an all-important part of this larger freedom because under modern conditions, the press is the principal agency by which the ordinary man receives the infor- mation he needs to judge the actions of his rulers and make up his mind on public affairs. Without newspapers, or with only gagged and blindfolded ones, he is in the dark, and helpless. An unfettered press is therefore one of the essential bulwarks of a democratic nation. Be. any proof be needed, it is supplied by the record of the totalitarian dictatorships which have darkened the twentieth century. Rigid control of all sources of public information, and especially of newspapers, was the cornerstone on which all these regimes -- Nazi, Fascist and Communist alike -- were founded. Without it, they could hardly have lasted for more than a few months. With it, they could keep their peoples in blinkers and drive them on any course they chose. The calamities of our age, its fear and insecurity, stem in no small measure from the simple fact that at critical periods great sections of the earth's popula- tion have been prevented by their rulers from learning the real news of the world. FB nese examples should provide a warning against any attempt, by govern- ments or by private interests, to restrict the essential freedom of the press. A free people must stand on guard not only against direct censorship but also against more insidious encroachments. Nominal freedom 'is not enough. The only truly free press is one which can record the news faithfully and comment on it frankly without fear of direct or indirect punishment. Neither the press nor the public is safe with anything less than this. | liberty, of course, involves obligations. That of a free newspaper is to be truly free. It must be thorough, accurate and unbiased in its reporting, sincere and thoughtful in its editorials, and resistant to all outside pressure. It must be both cautious and bold--cautious until it knows all the facts, bold when it is sure of its ground. It must, above all, be inspired by devotion to the public wel- fare as its staff understand it. Ke Beach a newspaper is worthy of the privileges which the free peoples of the world have traditionally granted to their press. Such a newspaper is also the best. guardian 'of the liberties of the people. Prepored by the Conodian Daily Newspaper Publithers Association WHAT OTHERS ARE SAYING Socreds Hurt Quebec's Ottawa Representation MONTREAL: that in politics demagogy has effect, in the short term, at least. Social Credit did not overlook it. So- cial Credit promised some in- credible things, notably an in- crease in social welfare spend- ing and a decrease in taxes, and moreover, the disappear- ance of the national debt. Since simple souls are always in the majority, reducing politics to such crass formulas can be a way to gain advantage. It is remarkable that the Social Credit drive was achieved with such paucity of resources, There was little money but plenty of people to work. This is a lesson for the old parties. Their paid organ- izers. lost ground before to people who believe in some- thing and are ready to devote themselves to it. Here is proof that elections are not won with money alone, nor with prayers. The representation of French Canadians in the next Diefen- baker Cabinet will be weaker than ever, In. the House of Commons it will be even worse. The Liberals have three or four outstanding mem bers. Among the Socreds there is utter inexperience. Of their 26 members there may not be 20 who can express themselves adequately in English and grapple with the complex prob- lems of Federal politics and administration. We did have a small place; we emerge with almost nothing. Definitely, Quebec is not a province like the others. It is a little more foolish. LE DEVOIR, "It is known CHATHAM NEWS: A survey conducted by the American Newspaper Publishers Associ- ation furnishes pretty deifnite proof of the stability and im- portance of the newspaper bus- iness in Canada and the United States. In- 1961 daily newspapers spent more than $100,000,000 for plant expansion and modern- ization, topping the figure for the second successive year. Publishers reporting for the survey announce plans to spend more than , $100,000,000 for the same. purpose during the current year, 1962. Critics searching for weak- ness in North American news- papers must be impressed by this dollars and cents expres- sion of faith by publishers. Here are some facts that de- bunk the debunkers. A piece of research by ANPA shows that the daily newspaper business in North America is controlled by 1,160 different ownerships, not 80,. a figure used by some paid orators on the "rubber chick- en" circuit. The research shows over 700 dailies, including 160 combina- ton morning and evening, are owned by 134 different. chain groups. 'Taking into account also the 93 combinations of monring and evening news- papers under single ownerships in each city, there .are 1,220 different - ownerships. of the 1,833 daily newspapers. CORNWALL §T.AN DARD- FREEHOLDER: Few _ things are more pleasant than a drive in the country. Over the years this has probably hecome one of the most popular of all sports, particularly at this time of year when all the country is coming into its pro- ductive best. Unfortunately, there are still a few things to mar the enjoyment of such rural travel. One such jarring note is the recurring eyesore of garbage tossed: out along back roads Main roads now usually have large signs indicating the pos- sibility of a fine if a passer-by defiles the landscape in this manner, But back roads are not yet by any means free of the nuisance. It would be rather interesting to know from how far some of this junk comes. With garbage collection . now comparatively widespread, 'there must be less temptation for town dwellers or village folk to throw around trash like this. Apparently some people sti!! are willing to break the rules of reasonable conduct, however. While the nuisance may be somewhat less in evidence than it used to be, it is something thta shouldn't- happen at all. Modern times are distinguish- ed for the amount of litter and junk people scatter about. It is too bad we are becoming known as scatterers of trash in public places, which include roadsides and picnic spots. OWEN SOUND SUN. TIMES: There's a bit more than usual interest in a report from Toronto that school ehil- dren are engaged in a bit of begging in front of liquor stores and beer warehouses. Some of the children are only four years of age. They smear a rather dirty rag over the windshield of a car and then hold out their hands in hopes of "'payment." Their choice of location is quite a just one. Perhaps they reason that clients of such places must have plenty of ready cash to so indulge and should, therefore, be willing to "give a fellow a dime for an ice cream." It is hardly likely that they realize that the prod- uct of the industries whose stores they are thus "patron- izing" includes not a few men and women who carry on a much more serious type of begging. It was suggested that the complaint should be made to the governmental board who sets up such sales outlets. It is difficult to see how such offi- cials can conscientiously do much about it. Better they do something about the senior type beggars who badger peo- ple on the streets of that same city in large numbers asking for handouts for meals, etc. UNITED KINGDOM OPINION Result Of Canadian Vote Disappoints Businessmen By M. McINTYRE HOOD Special London A ad Nerd eae For The Oshawa Times LONDON -- The result of Canada's general election has been received in English busi- ness and commercial circles with disappointment. That has been made apparent to me in conversations with men in var- ious lines of business and in dustry. The election was the main subject of conversation at a dinner which I attended, and at which some of the keen- est minds in the business world were concentrating their thoughts on the new Canadian political situation. The sense of disappointment was very apparent. But what surprised me was that most of those who expressed their views were disappointed, not because of the indecisive re- sults, not because of the heavy losses sustained by the Con- Servatives,. but because the Liberals had failed to oust the government from office. Their hopes seem to have been cen- tred on a_ Pearson -- victory, which they had been anxious to see achieved. This widely-expressed view- point indicates that the popu- larity of John Diefenbaker: in British circles seems to have waned a great deal in the last year or so. It may be that this is because of the Canadian prime minister's unrelenting opposition to Britain joining the Common Market, a view which is not accepted with good grace by the leading in- dustrialists and business men who are anxious to have Brit- ain enter the European group. Be that as it may, I have sensed that there would have been gréat relief in business circles in Britain if the Liber- als had won an election victory BY-GONE DAYS 40 YEARS AGO Gordon Brasford, former phy- sical instructor at the Oshawa YMCA, was named director of city playgrounds in Montreal. Town council appointed Mrs. A. Walker as police matron. Mrs. Walker held the position of superinetndent of the Salvation Army Sunday School. Oshawa turned back Peterbor- ough in a Central Ontario League fixture 5-1 with'Ted Gal- lagher pitching brilliant two-hit ball for the locals. Mrs. J. H. Manuel was honor ed by the Westmount Home and School Association with a ma- hogany clock and address prior to her leaving the Westmount vicinity. A party of South Oshawa sportsmen consisting of Jack Jones, Alvin Sarrels, Clifford Harman and Bruce Clapper, had a successful fishing trip, catch- ing 54 fish at Hastings on the Trent river. Town Council decided, after a lengthy debate, to grant no more licences for pool rooms. Several Oshawa women golf- ers paid an interclub visit to the Orillia Golf Club. A set of chimes: was donated to the new St George's Anglican Church by Mr. and Mrs. T, Edgar Houston of Cincinnati, in memory of Mrs. Houston's par- ents, the late Mr. and Mrs. Edward Carswell. Mrs. Carswell had been a member of the church for 75 years, Mr. Cars- well for 66 years. and Lester Pearson had taken over the post of prime minis- ter. MOVING AHEAD Meanwhile, in Brussels things are moving ahead towards meeting the needs of Britain and the Commonwealth coun- tries in order to make Brit- ain's entry into. the Common Market an assured fact. The experts working out details are reported to have reached a sat- isfactory solution for safeguard- ing Britain's economic ties with India, Pakistan and Cey- lon, Indian officials here claim that they are not completely Satisfied with the solution, but at least a plan has been evolved which meets with the approval of the Common Mar- ket Six and that is a step ahead. In the near future, I under- stand, the problems of safe. guarding wheat exports from Canada, Australia© and New Zealand,. and meat exports from New Zealand will be the main subject of consideration, and there are strong hopes that a satisfactory compromise will be reached on these. Other items to be given special con- sideration, and likely to be ex- empted from the Common Mar- ket external. tariff are aluminum and newsprint, both of vital interest to Canada. The British negotiators hope that in all of these fields the Common Market Six will meet them more than -half-way, to provide safeguards for impor- tant segments of the economy of the major Commonwealth countries. NEW RELUCTANT PEER The death of the Earl of Sandwich has brought into the limelight the position of an- other reluctant peer who will, against his will, have to give up his seat in the House of Commons. Their heir to the title of the Earl of Sandwich is Viscount Hinchingbrooke, one of the most vigorous and outspoken of the Conservative members of Parliament. Lord Hinchingbrooke has pre- viously expressed his ideas about reluctance to accept peer- ages. It should, he maintains, be open to any. peer, so long as he has not accepted a Writ of Summons to the House of Lords, to sit and vote in the Commons. But the recent case of Mr. Wedgewood Benn, now Lord of Stangate, produced a court decision that this was not possible. The plight of Viscount Hinch- ingbrooke emphasises the im- portance of the select' commit- tee of parliament which is now considering the composition of whether peers could relinquish their seats in the House of Lords and remain members of the Commons. It is not like- ly that its recommendations will be available in time to help Viscount Hinchingbrooke out of its dilemma. There are doubts as to whether the com- mittee report can be tabled and dealt with before the next general election, so that Vis- count Hinchingbrooke will be in exactly the same position as Lord Stansgate, and will not be eligible to stand as a candi- date for parliament. ~ CIGARETS ON TV . Repercussions of the recent report of the British Medical Association on the detrimental effects of cigaret smoking in relation to lung cancer are still being felt. One of the interest- ing results is the drawing up of a new set of rules for the ad vertising of cigarets on televi- sion. These have been drawn up by the Independent Televi- sion Authority, in association with tobacco firms and adver- tising agencies The sew rules are somewhat drastic. The courting couples whose pleasure never seems complete without a cigaret are to vanish from the TV screens. So also is the he-man. type who implies with every puff that the smoking of cigarets was the chief source of his manliness, strength and charm. The redrafted advertisements are required to avoid sugges- tions that smoking and mascu- linity are inseparable, that it is a desirable recreation for young people, a socially desir- able habit and that it is a desirable recreation for hero- ines, Instead, advertisements will be devoted to stressing the quality and flavor of the brand being advex.ised. Cigaret advertisements on television have already been limited to the hours after 9 p.m., so that the young TV viewers should not be tempted to start smoking. The cigaret companies are not concerned very much about the new rules. They will still be able to put their products before the public on TV, although the form of their commercials will be dif- ferent. GRAYDON T. HORTON: and IVAN B.
