She Oshawa Sunes Published by Canadian Newspapers Limited 86 King St. E., Oshawa, Ontario T. L. Wilson, Publisher FRIDAY, JULY 6, 1962 -- PAGE 6 Oshawa Harbor Area Has New Look Now The Oshawa harbor area is rapidly adopting a new look these days, one which augurs well for the future of this City. Not only has work been completed on the new 500-foot cement wharf on the east side of the harbor, but an extensive job of dredging is under way, one that will make the harbor far more useable for large ships. Harbor developments take several years, are quite costly, but they are . essential to the future of any grow- ing city such as Oshawa where the population now hovers around the 62,000 mark. The rapidly expanding industrial area in and around Toronto makes it inevitable that big industry will eventually move here, that there will be a need for modern harbor facili- ties of the type now being installed in Oshawa. This will also be brought about because of the fact that Tor- onto's harbor facilities are too fre- quently taxed to capacity. A casual visit to the Oshawa Harbor area these days will convince local citizens, if they are not already con- vinced, that a period of unprecedented development is under way; aside from the Harbor Commission developments, a huge marina boat project is being completed where boats can be berthed, repaired and stored -- this is espe- cially a fine attraction for out-of-town craft whose owners like to make pro- Idnged visits to this community, espe- cially for shopping purposes. The Oshawa Yacht Club is also building a junior club for the youngs- ters, near the Marina on the north- west sector of the 'harbor. All in all, a new hustle and bustle is to be noticed in that area which is under the jurisdiction of the recently- created Oshawa Harbor Commission. Despite the failure of the once fabulously- promising Intermart pro- ject to become a reality (to add lustre to our industrial development picture) the future looks exceedingly bright and an atmosphere of intense op- timism prevails in and around the harbor area regarding future deve- lopment. A trip down there can be highly rewarding. Farm Collective Notes Says The Vancouver Sun editor- ially: "Smarting under their own agricul- tural failures, Communist leaders will chortle over Denmark's move to set up partial farm collectives. "And if their reflexes are still nor- mal, they'll milk it for propaganda. "But beneath the name of collective there's a text of fact that hardly sup- ports the idea the Danes are copying the Russians or Chinese. "Small Danish dairy farmers are merging operations voluntarily for reasons that look good and sufficient. "Their government can't afford the heavy subsidies paid farmers by other European states. Small Danish hold- ings don't lend themselves to effi- ciency measures, like machine farm- ing, large-scale herd feeding and care, and area fertilization. "Labor is short. Workers fell from 200,000 in 1980 to 130,000 in 1960. "By banding into co-operatives the Bloodstained The Kingston Whig-Standard has this to say about the recent strife in Algiers: "In 1827, during an argument over a consignment of wheat, the com- manding officer of the Janissaries of Algiers struck the French consul, in the face with a fly whisk. It was a costly gesture because it provided the French with the pretext they had been seeking; it opened the way to 132 year of French rule in Algeria. "For more than three centuries Algiers had been the home of the Barbary pirates. The French navy blockaded the port for three years and then landed with a military force. It took nearly two decades to subdue the country. "The first serious nationalist up- rising. in Algeria took place on the day after the last war ended. It was ruthlessly crushed. After careful secret preparation, the Algerian War broke out on November 1, 1954. Its cost in blood and treasure was im- 'mense. ; The recent. referendum ended it; Algeria became independent.

Broadcast fer- tilization of grazing land will be possible. Herd feeding and care will save money. "In competition with t ariff protec- tion and subsidized farmers in West Europe the Danes had to do this to survive. "But what applies in their special restricted circumstances would not apply elsewhere in non-Communist Europe. They've started no trend toward collective farming in the capitalist west. "We doubt if the Danish co-opera- tives themselves would qualify any- one for the Order of Lenin. "We doubt if they've gone as far in socializing themselves as the Hutterite brethren, and similar Chris- tian collective sects here in North America." Curtain "At this stage it is hard to predict what this newly won independence will produce in the immediate future. For more than seven years the nationalist government has operated outside the country. It has been out of touch with the-masses of the people and its energies have been concen- trated on the fight against the French, There are certain to be sharp divisions of opinion within the gov- ernment itself. "Algeria has a turbulent history and will find it hard to walk in the ways of peace. . "As for France, freed of this drain on her treasury and manpower, she will grow in strength and influence in Europe. The troops in Algeria will come home; this accession of military power in the homeland will give Presi- dent de Gaulle the toughest army in Europe. This is the stuff that will add to his dreams of restoring French grandeur and influence. "Never amenable to proposals that put France in a position of one among the equals, it is probable that he will be much more difficult in the future than he has been in the past, particu- larly in NATO councils. "A bloodstained curtain has fallen on the Algerian strife, but it is doubt- ful whether it will bring the general tranquillity that people long for and expect after such stormy times." Bible Thought We are ambassadors therefore on behalf of Christ. -- II. Corinthians 5:20. Ambassadors conduct themselves carefully to properly represent their commission. For we are a temple of the living God. -- II. Corinthians 6:16. We should use our lives purposely as God had rationed our time. TODAY'S WORLD QUEEN'S PARK Election Method Changes Expected By DON O'HEARN Changes in our election meth- ods can be expected in line with our changing conditions. With speedier .communication --and more intensive campaign- ing--there is a great demand for shorter campaigns. To make this possible we will probably soon see permanent voters lists. They would be based on an annual registration taken across the country. This system is fol- lowed in the U.K. The current method of pre- paring the list by house to house enumeration along with the necessary revision period fol- lowing this, takes so long it wouldn't be possible with it to shorten the present time for elections, either federally or provincially. TV CAMPAIGNING? Television as a political in- strument has gained new re- spect here since the Social Credit victories in Quebec. The two-year TV efforts of Quebec leader Real Caouette are generally given credit for the dramatic wins in the prov- ince. Which doesn't mean at all that Social Credit or anyone else is going to have the same success through the same meth- ods here. In the first place, Quebec politics have always featured highly emotional, almost evan- galestic oratory. Mr. Caouette is a master of this. The same type of approach here--if we had politicians, ca- pable of practicing it--might be laughed at. Again the Quebec leader had an unusual captive audience. His success was mainly achieved among the habitants. They are a people who lead a simple life on a generally low standard of living. Television to them would have taken a place next to the church in importance. And Mr, Caouette, using French as his language and with only the very limited competition of other French programs, could be sure of big audiences. There is nowhere in Ontario where a parallel situation would apply. SCHOOL BOARDS Alberta may have broken the sound barrier on the very troublesome question of con- flict between municipal coun- cils and boards of education-- and also on the lack of control over boards. The province has passed per- missive legislation whereby school boards can be done away with by plebiscite. In such cases all matters, ex- cept financing, are handled by a committee of council. There is provision for representation of school supporters who re- side outside the municipal boun- daries. The system seems to make a lot of sense. YOUR HEALTH Better To Prevent Freezing Of Joint By JOSEPH G. MOLNER, MD Dear Dr. Molner: What is a "frozen" arm and is surgery always necessary? J.W. A "frozen" arm is. one that is stiff and cannot be moved to its usual extent. This condition can range from minor to total, and can affect the joints. Usual causes: infection; in- jury, such as a fracture of the bones near the joint; adhesions or scar tissue forming in the joint. This latter may follow some types of surgery, which is an urgent reason for doctors and nurses to insist that you start moving joints sooner than you think you want to. They know why it's necessary! Sometimes surgery can free a frozen joint, depending on how long it has been frozen, and the extent of the trouble. It's vastly better to prevent rather than to try to cure. The joints most often affected are shoulder, elbow, knee, and finger. Dear Dr. Molmer: Please ex- plain esophageal varices in my husband. They were due to liver damage and alcohol, causing severe hemorrhage. Can such a person drink moderately? Is there danger of another hemor- rhage? M.F. , Varices are varicose veins-- in this case in the esophagus, the lower part. Liver damage or: disease can cause excess pressure, so blood. backs up in the veins. These can_ break, causing the hemorrhage, and this is (angerous. This patient should avoid. al- cohol entirely. It is an invitation to more trouble. Dear Dr. Molner:. My seven- year-old daughter will not drink plain milk but she likes it choc- olate-flavored. I let her have checolate milk every day. But I am worried because I have heard it is bad for the h MRS. T.B. oe Forget the nonsense about its , being "bad for the heart." There are some extra calories in the chocolate, of course, and sometimes, I repeat "some- times," it is thought to have a relation to acne in the teens, so I'm faintly cautious about let- ting the chocolate habit get too strong. Why not a*bargain with your youngster? Milk at breakfast and lunch; if swallowed like a little lady, chocolate milk for supper. I'm sure once a day won't hurt her, Dear Dr. Molner: I was told to use peroxide for an ear in- fection. It helped. Now I use it daily before my bath. Can this be harmful? MRS. E, R. - Hydrogen peroxide is a mild antiseptic, but I can't see any reason for keeping on using it, any more than yon need to keep painting merthiolate or any or ahtiseptic on a scratched finger after it has healed. However, I know of no dan- ger in continued use of perox- ide. But why before your bath, since the water might wash it all away? Incidentally, peroxide should be fresh to be effective, so buy it in small bottles and keep them well-capped. Dear Dr. Molner: How. can I get rid of ringworm? My -toe- nails hardened and got dark. MRS, A.S.C. Drugs containing ¢riesofulvin are highly effective in treating ringworm, assuming that such is the cause of your nail trou- ble. If some other cause is present, that remedy won't be the answer, of course, Remem- ber that even-when the ring- worm is conquered, you still must wait quite some months for new nails to push the dam- aged ones out of the way. BY-GONE DAYS 35 YEARS AGO Oshawa celebrated the Dia- mond Jubilee of Confederation with a parade, a celebration at Lakeview Park and a meeting in the evening at which speak- ers gave patriotic addresses. Oshawa Rotary Club. entry won first prize for the best de- corated car in the Oshawa Jub- ilee Parade. Work was progressing on the interior of the old town hall. Announcement of the sale of Sykes Lumber Company, Athol street, to the Carew Lumber Company of Lindsay, was made by F. W. Carew. Ernest Cay was named manager of the plant. Mrs. W. H. Wigg, a resident of Oshawa for 57 years, died suddenly. Building permits for June to- talled $1,254,950, a record for any month in the city. The list included 71 new dwellings and a $450,000 General Motors stam-- ing plant. © Oshawa Rotary Club decided to build a swimming pool in Rotary Park. Thousands of citizens attended an open-air thanksgiving service held in Alexandra Park by the local ministerial association. Oshawa's fire loss during the first six months of 1927 amount- ed to $36,853. The Jubilee Pavilion, built at Lakeview Park by the Parks Commission at an estimated cost of $17,000, was opened for business.

Prime Minister John Diefen- baker enjoyed the largest ma- jority of his political career in his own constituency of Prince Albert last month; how does this compare with achieve- ments by Canada's other big names in politics? In this year's election, some 7,750,000 votes were polled in 264 ridings; balloting in the re- maining constituency was post- poned owing to the death of a candidate. Thus there would be an average of about 30,000 votes cast in each riding. But around that average, there are enor- mous variations. No less than 119,523 votes were cast in the fast-growing Toronto suburb of York-Scarborough; at the other extreme, the Madeleine Islands in the Gulf of the St. Lawrence had only 4,483 voters, yet they also elected one member. We cannot expect either of those unusual constituencies to pro- vide typical majorities. DIEF ACHIEVES Of the 24,734 electors who voted in Prince Albert last month, a staggering 71 per cent voted for Mr. Diefenbaker, while his three rivals shared the remainder. His percentage | was at or near the record in a four-cornered fight. Not one of the representatives of the three other parties attracted as many as half Mr. Diefenbaker's total of votes, so all of them for- feited their candidacy deposit of $200. With two of the 204 polls un- reported, Mr. Diefenbaker at- tained a majority of 13,603 votes over his closest opponent. In his six previous successful elec- tions--three in Lake Centre and three in Prince Albert--he had achieved almost progressively rising majorities of 280, 1009, 3432, 3001, 6554 and 12713 re- spectively. Prince Albert's majority was 44, Liberal Prime TODAY IN HISTORY By THE CANADIAN PRESS July 6, 1962... _The Lord's Day Act, for- bidding all but essential commerce and work on Sunday, was passed by the House of Commons 56 years ago today--in 1906--after a bitter debate during which the strongest opposi- tion came from French Canada. It was sub ject to provincial enforcement, however, and has since been widely amended in many parts of the country. 1946 -- Pandit Nehru as- sumed leadership of the In- dian Congress party. Minister Sir Wilfrid Laurier's margin there in 1896, Bigger ridings have shown bigger majorities. The most out- standing in our 25 elections since Confederation have nearly all been achieved by our most prominent Conservative and . Libera! politicians. Of course the unprecedented Diefenbaker sweep in 1958 saw some records which may never be excelled. Thus in a nearly average poll of 42,987 votes in Calgary North in 1958, Hon. Douglas Harkness, then Minister of Agricuiture, won 71 per cent of the poll against three rivals, and achieved the record Canadian' majority (excluding Scarbor- ough) of 25,446. In Quebe cEast in 1953, Prime Minister St. Laurent won 72 per cent of the poll against only two rivals to attain a majority of 20,104, Also in 1958, three other cab- majorities: Hon. Gordon Chur- chill 19,795 in Rae: ig Se . Donald 19,097 in Toronto-Eglinton; and Hon. Howard Green 19,089 in Vancouver - Quadra. And Dick Bell, a back-bencher now tipped by many as a likely cabinet minister, racked up 19,089 also, in Carleton Ontario. Mr. Fleming's great major- ity, like Mr. St. Laurent's, was won against only two rivals. In 1958 in a straight fight against a Liberal opponent only, Wally Nesbitt scored 75 per cent of the poll of 29,384 votes in Ox- ford, Ontario, to win by 14,774 votes. : Fi This year, the largest major- | ity was attained by the \ longtime Liberal MP, Alan Mac- naughton, who won Montreal- © 'Mount Royal by 19,503 votes | Social Credit candidate won 62 -- per cent of the poll in Quebec- © Montmorency to attain Can--- ada's second highest majority of 17,669. Erhart Regier, the financiai critic, set up some | thing of a 1962 record by in- creasing his majority in Burn- aby-Coquitlam more than six- fold, although he still won less than 50 per cent of the total poll in a four-cornered battle. My thanks to the reader who wrote to suggest this topic with its unusual slant. inet ministers won outstanding REPORT FROM U.K. _ Employers Urging Five-Year Plans By M. McIntyre Hood Special London (Eng.) # Correspondent For The Oshawa Times LONDON -- Following the pat- tern which has already been established in some segments of industry in Canada and the Uni- ted States, The British Employ- ers' Federation is advising its members to propose long-term wage agreements to the unions in their industries. By this mean they see some hope of relating the rates of pay to productivity. What is being urged by the leaders of the confederation is a series of five-year plans, each incorporating an order of priori- ties. This would lay dowr not only justifiable general increases in wage scales, but also special increases for particularly de- serving groups of workers. DOUBTS OVER TUC Discussing the confederation's proposals, Sir George Pollock, Q.C., one of its directors, said that the first steps would have to be taken in individual indus- 'tries. But he agreed that "it may ultimately lead to talks with the Trades Union Congress through the British Employers' Federation." While the confederation is sin- cere in putting forward its pro- posals, the TUC is quite likely to take an entirely different view of them. There is con- siderable doubt as to whether the TUC would be willing to take part in such talks as have been suggested. Describing the suggestion as "half - baked", George Woodcock, general sec- retary of the Trades Union Con- gress, made this comment: "It will impede the National Economic Development Council rather than help it. The em- ployers should know the imprac- ticability of attempting to im- pose detailed objectives on wage negotiating bodies. If they don't know, they only need to look at the difficulties created by the government with its so call- ed guiding light. I am surprised that they should put forward this proposal." CUTS NEGOTIATIONS The current issue of the Con- federation's Bulletin concedes that the proposal "would cut across the idea of annual wa negotiations, each dealt with isolation." But it thinks: "this might be the appropriate mo- ment for employers and unions to make a fresh approach. - "Although only a comparative- ly small annual increase in wages can be contemplated -- to match the expected increase in production -- the amount would be substantial over a five- year period' the article adds, "Workers would surely wel- come the idea that over a five- ycar period their wages and working conditions would be ad. justed progressively upwards, and that anomalies existing be- tween different classes of work- ers would be ironed out -- in- stead of having their claims set- tled piecemeal as in the past."
