| She Oshawa Funes Published by Canadian Newspapers Limited 86 King St. E., Oshawa, Ontario T. L, Wilson, Publisher WEDNESDAY, JULY 11, 1962 -- PAGE 6 'Time To Act Is Now For Centennial Year | The Sudbury Star feels that it is 'high time the City Council in that 'City gets down to brass tacks and 'comes up with a concrete plan for the 'celebration of Canada's Centennial. It ifeels that the Council should set up 'a special committee and have it func- 'tioning before the end of the year on «the Centennial. + Says the Star: "Among the suggestions being put 'forward by Con. Max Silverman is 'one that recommends a centennial »committee be appointed as soon as ' possible to start work on planning *Sudbury's participation in Canada's * Centennial. It is something like a year ago that Con. Grace Hartman made a similar recommendation to the pre- 'vious administration but no action 'was taken. Mayor Hillis said earlier 'this year that council would consider ' such a committee, but nothing came 'of it. | "Revival of the matter by Con. Silverman, already supported by Con. Hartman, shouldiarouse the interest 'of the new council in the knowledge that when its term of office expires Canada's Centennial Year is two years closer. A permanent and useful mem- orial to Confederation will require much thought and planning and work will have to 'be started two or even three years in advance to have the pro- ject completed. It is not too early to set up a centennial committee which can bring forward suggestions as io the type of project most suitable to the needs of the community. It could be the creation of a Centennial Park with extensive facilities for recreational pursuits, for instance. Such a project would require the acquisition of necessary land, grading, landscaping, construction of some structures and the installation of facilities and ser- vices. Obviously such a project cannot be completed in one year or financed out of one year's current revenue. "What a wonderful thing it would be if the city could deliver a com- pleted project in 1967 bearing the "paid in full' stamp. Time moves re- lentlessly onward and it would be a mark of progress for this year's council to have a centennial commit- tee set up and functioning before the end of this year." 'Turmoil Is Widespread The widespread turmoil of today's ' world has prompted the Kitchener- Waterloo Record to state editorially: "The younger generation, as the older generation can attest, is going 'to the dogs. This is not new; it has been happening since Cain. "What is new is that, if one is in- clined to be pessimistic, there are some grounds for believing that the younger generation is not alone. "Rep. Walter Judd of Minnesota ' summed up the situation recently: ' "The whole world at the middle of 'the 20th century is characterized by + as much confusion and conflict as at ' any period in human history. I think | it is accurate to say that this is the ' first time in man's existence on this ' planet when all continents and cul- ' tures, all countries and peoples have ' been in turmoil at the same time." | "Supporting evidence is abundant } and anyone would be hard put to + exhaust the list. Africa, Asia, Europe, ' South America -- you name it, and ' there's turmoil. : "True, there has always been trou- ; ble. The big difference today, how- i ever, is that any disturbance in what- ever country has the potential of dis- rupting the rest of the world. A rip- , ple from southeast Asia is not only felt in the West; it may be magnified into a tidal wave in its passage. "The reason is technology -- tech- nology that has brought instant com- munication among peoples, enabled tremendous population growth, that has made the resources of one nation necessary to another, that has pro- vided the means for and the ever- present threat of quick and whole- sale self-destruction, "It is quite evident that most of the political turmoil is engendered by an unprecedented upsurge among all peoples for a better deal in life, for them and for their children. Though there is danger that they may fall prey to false ideologies, take wrong turnings and destroy much that is good, the urges that impel them are worthwhile. "While the outcome of the contest between freedom and slavery is not sure, the very fact that freedom has survived the dark pages of history and is growing is inspiration for the future." Narcotics Law Rejected The U.S. supreme court, by a 6 to : 2 vote, recently ruled unconstitution a California Jaw making it a crime ' to be addicted to narcotics. } This will no doubt come as welcome } support for those who believe that ! the addict is not a criminal but a sick ' person and that he should be treated , as such. Said Mr. Justice Stewart for the » majority: : "We hold that a state which im- prisons a person thus afflicted as a ' criminal, though he had never touched 'any narcotic drug within the state » or. been guilty of any irregular beha- vior there, inflicts a cruel and unu- ' gual punishment..," Says the Milwaukee Journal: : "Stewart said the court recognized * the vicious evils of the narcotics trade, | but that there were "countless fronts | She Oshawa Zimes T.

"Justice Douglas said in a concurring opinion that it was "barbarous" to punish people for being sick. "The decision puts in jeopardy laws of other states, including Wis- consin, that make. addiction a crim- inal offense, It does not, however, rule out criminal statutes against possession of narcotics or trafficking in them. It does not rule out, either, civil statutes providing for the com- mitment of addicts for treatment. "California has such a law and re- cently the federal government trans- ferred to the state a former naval hospital to be used as a_ narcotic addicts' rehabilitation centre. The hospital is to have a staff of 500 and start receiving its first patients in August. "Like alcoholism, narcotics addic- tion has proved difficult to treat. Cures are infrequent and uncertain.

Pre-election studies made by the Gallup Poll in its highly ac- curate election report reveal such facets as these: Among English-speaking Ca- nadians, Conservatives were far more popular than Liberals. In this segment of the vote, representing 59 per cent --- al- most 6 in 10 -- of the voters, Conservatives won 45 per cent, versus 34 per cent for Liberals Moreover little more than 1 in 20 English-speak'ng Canadians voted Social-Credit, compared to 4 in 10 among French-speak- ing Canadians throughout the provinces. ; Actually, among those Cana- dians whose mother tongue is French, Conservatives took third place to Liberals and So- Voted for Conservatives Liberals Socred-Crediters Other eeeeerenesee cial-Credit candidates. These voters, who gave almost twice as many votes to the Liberals as to Conservatives, represent 29 per cont of the eleciorate Who got the Ethnic vote' De- bate is clarified by the fact that Gallup studies show that the main Ethnic vote went Lib- eral ,with almost 4 in 10 voting for them,. Among these Cana- dians whose mother tongue is another language than English or French, the Conservatives, NDP and Social-Credit Parties were all at much the same lev- el, winning about 2 in 10 votes each from these Canadians. They represent 12 per cent of the total vote. : This factual analysis of how the Parties fared among the three main racial segments in Canada is revealed clearly in the following table. To obtain the data respondents who had an opinion on how they would vote were asked: "WHAT WAS THE LAN- GUAGE YOU FIRST SPOKE IN CHILDHOOD AND STILL UNDERSTAND?"'

MOLNER, MD Dear Dr. Molner: What are some of the reasons for a D. and C? How many times can this be done? Is it serious?-- MRS. C. S, A D. and C. (meaning "dila- tion and curettage," or scrap- ing) is a valuable procedure in diagnosis of female disorders. Under anesthesia, the cervix (opening of the uterus) is gently widened. Then the surgeon, with a curette, gently scrapes the lining of the uterus. The tissue scrapings are placed in a fixing solution and taken to the laboratory for further examina- tion. Incidentally, the D. and C. is brief and the discomfort is vir- tually nil--it could, in fact, be done without anesthesia. The whole thing requires no more' than a day or two in the hospital. There are times when a D. and C. alone will put an end to bleeding, if this is due to some- thing which has been clinging to the wall of the uterus. A D. and C., for example, is essential after an incomplete abortion-- that is, where the womb has not been completely emptied of its contents. It is used also in severe cases of menstrual pain, and in many instances affords relief. It may be used in correcting some types of sterility. Yet for all of this, keep in mind that the D. and C., is first of all a diagnostic meas. ure, rather than a treatment, in most instances It is an imperative procedure in cases of irregular bleeding or bleeding that occurs after the -- Microscopie study of the scrapings can also give clues to glandular problems. The D. and C. is, likewise, the next step after a positive "Pap" smear, and it is, natu- rally, an urgent procedure if for any other reason cancer is suspected. Still further, it is the method of removing polyps if they are causing trouble. Where it is used as a treat- ment for some condition, as cited above, and it doesn't suc- ceed, there is nothing to pro- hibit repeating the D. and C. It can, indeed, be done as often as deemed necessary--but its great value is in diagnosis. A woman with unexplained vaginal bleeding should not hes- itate for a moment when a D. and C. is suggested. It may provide life-saving information. And with the above outline of how simple and painless it is, I hope that all readers will be reassured. Dear Dr. Molner: I have spent most of my life in mental hospitals. When I had my son they operated on me and tied my tubes so I couldn't have any more children. A lady I know told me that seven years after the operation the tubes will untie and I can again have children. It is four years now, and I am scared.--N, S. No, the tubes will not '"untie" in seven years--or at any other time. Dear Dr. Molner: I use a nominal amount of spices, in- cluding some exotic ones. Some of my friends are convinced that these, as well as meat, are sexualiy arousing. I consider this an old wives' tale. What is your opinion?--R. M. I'm inclined to agree with you. op that in chack. BY-GONE DAYS 25 YEARS AGO Headquarters for the Seventh- Day Adventist Church for Can- ada were moved from Winnipeg to Oshawa. FE. A. Lovell was elected pre- sident while A. L. W. Smith re- tained the position of secretary- treasurer and directing super- visor of the Oshawa Supervised Playgrounds Association which planned supervision of Alex- andra, Cowan, Ritson and Cedardaie Parks. Ald. Stewart Smith, of To- ronto, addressed an open air meeting held by the Oshawa Ratepayers' Association in Memorial Park. Oshawa Flute bands won sev- eral awards at a competition held in Toronto by the Orange and Protestant Flute Band As- sociation of Ontario. Customs receipts at the Port of Oshawa totalled $535,157 for the month of June. Keith Goodman represented the Oshawa Lawn Bowling Club in the district playdowns for the provincial singles championship. The Oshawa Board of Educa- tion approved a new course of studies for the first year gen- eral course at the OCVI, which included Social Studies and Home Economics or Shop Work. Citizens were warned by the medical officer of health not to bathe in Lake Ontario at Osh- awa Beach because of water contamination. The number of families on the relief lists reported by the Wel- fare Board showed 325, which was the lowest since 1929. Oshawa Waterworks pumped a city record of 3,115,000 gallons of water on July 8. Rotary Park opened its swim- ming pool. Ronald Knowles was appointed supervisor, assisted by George McQuade. City council granted. General Motors of Canada permission to erect an overhead conveyor for car bodies at Division and Wil- liam streets. Oshawa motorcycle riders held the first event of its kind, a hill climb and steeplechase, on the farm of L. O. Clifford. The hill climb was won by a Peter- borough entry while Monty Cranfield, of the local club, emerged victorious in the steeplechase. TODAY IN HISTORY By THE CANADIAN PRESS July 11, 1962...

Why has the government imposed spec- fal taxes on luxury imports and taken other belt - tightening steps? There is no simple answer to this complicated question. Yet I believe that it is possible to explain the situation in sim- ple terms, and to show what we can do, and why, to correct the present paradox of domestic prosperity and international in- debtedness. There is no need for Cana- dians to be bemused, bothered and bewildered. But we should blame ourselves for living too high off the hog, far beyond our means. In short, as a nation, we have been going to the finance com- pany every year, to borrow money to consolidate our. over- due bills, and worse, to borrow more money to make the pay- ments due and overdue' upon our earlier borrowings. I TOLD YOU 80 But now the finance company has called upon us to pay the sums due, while at the same time refusing to advance any more money to us. Fortunately we as a nation have great resources. We are like a family with valuables tucked away; while father, who has rather lazily been enjoying a spell of not working, posses- ses the skill and ability which can earn good money if he shows the resolution to roll up his sleeves and get to work again. In a series of columns, I shall explain what has happened to Canada, and describe how simi- lar things have happened to us and also to Britain and the United States in the recent past. I will dejcribe what I believe to be the most guilty cause of our present and past troubles-- and of troubles predictable for our future, too, unless we take steps to forestall this. And in support of my argu- ment, I will make that most ir- ritating of all remarks--"l told REPORT FROM U.K. Beautiful Scenery oh A e All Over Ireland By M. MCINTYRE HOOD Special London (Eng.) Correspondent For The Oshawa Times ACHILL ISLAND, Eire -- Beauty is in the eye of the be- holder. The truth of that old adage has been borne in on my mind as I have travelled among the lakes, rivers, mountains and valleys of Northern Ireland and Hire, Every day has brought its moments of delight as new vistas of loveliness came into view. one thing I have learned, to my own satisfaction at least, is that the places which are most publicized are by no means the most beautiful in Ireland, For instance, no part of Ireland has received greater acclaim for the beauty of its lakes and fells than Killarney. Perhaps the fact that a world-famous song has been written about it has helped to create the illusion that Killar- ney's lake district surpasses all other beauty spots in Ireland. I did not find it so. The mount- ains of Mourne, also immort- alized in song, I found gloomy, depressing and disappointing. And while there was béauty on a small scale at the meeting of the waters in the Vale of Avoka, there was nothing breath-taking there. HIDDEN BEAUTY SPOTS As I think over the many places I have seen on this tour of Ireland, there come to mind several which for sheer scenic beauty surpassed those I have mentioned. Nothing equalled the thrill of looking from a lookout point over to the Cliffs on Moher on the Atlantic Coast of County Clare. Glendalough, southwest of the Vale of Avoka was another place, which I found about two miles off the main road running south from Dublin, and which had a natural beauty, a jewel of silver in a setting of tree-clad hills, unsurpassed by anything else I have seen in this land. For a day. of traveiling through mountain, sea, and river scenery of unchanging loveli- ness, I count the trip around the Ring of Kerry, now being given the publicity it merits, as the most inspiring. MAZE OF LAKES Killarney's Lakes present 100 much of a set-piece type of beau- ty to compare with the wild glory of the shores of Lough Gorrib and Lough Mas, which lie directly north of the city of Galway. This is in Connemara country, with the peaks of the Twelve Pins, a towering range of mountains, forming a_ pic- turesque background to lake and free country that is a de- light to traverse. Between Fermoy and Lis- more, on the way to Cork, we passed through the Knockmeal- down Mountains, and there saw the greatest masses of wild rho- dodendrons, and pink and white hawthorn trees, I have ever seen anywhere. And coming up from Galway to Clifden, on the coast, through a maze of lakes, there was scenery that impressed me more than anything I saw around Killarney. I do not belittle Killarney, be- cause the district is very beau- tiful, although the village itself has a run-down and shabby ap- pearance. But I do want you so"--and quote warnings which I have written repeatedly over the past 10 years and which now have heen verified by events, It is important that I am able to repeat these quotations, be- cause some le are already trying to rewrite hi sto blame our present pi ms upon the present gover t, ust as those same people have tried to rewrite our past history by blaming the great fay evo of the 1930s, which was heralded by the stockmarket crash on Oct. 29, 1929, upon the Conserv. ative government which was elected nearly one year fater, July 28, 1930, HARVEST OLD SEEDS Our present troubles date back to a pattern which we started to form immediately after the war, in 1948, This pat- tern precipitated a dollar crisis in 1947, caused our humble with- drawal from a party dollar in 1949, took a decided turn for the worse in 1953 which continued unchecked for many years and was not corrected until last year. I will try to explain quite simply how we have po stumbling blindfold towards to- day's crisis for 15 years. Half way along that path, on Jan, 30, 1954, I wrote: "The rumble of international thunder is increasing along our American border. Its real sig- nificance is that we are only able to balance our account with the U.S.A. by importing capi- tal; thus in effect we are living on credit today, which our chil- dren will have to repay. If the situation grows worse, indeed if it is not corrected, we will have to return to the curbs we suf- fered in 1947 on our spending on American luxuries and Florida holidays." The situation was not cor- rected; we have indeed re- turned to those sometimes for- gotten 1947-style curbs. PARAGRAPHICAL WISDOM "The U.S. is baby-sitter to the whole world," complains an edi- tor. Er, beg pardon, but wouldn't it be more in order to say it's the world's wet-nurse? It is hoped that it isn't too early to wonder whatever he- came of beatniks. Exchanging hard and honest work for money is a tough way to get not much of it. "Some husbands can be cured of grouchiness by a certain oper- ation,' says a surgeon. Any hus- band can be cured of grouchi- ness by one of a number of operations. -- as, for example, cutting his throat. Nobody understands' money, which is a great pity, ag the only universal language we have is that spoken by money. to § make the point that it is by no » means the only area of rare scenic beauty in Ireland, nor, as IT saw the country, is it the most lovely and enchanting.
