2 THE [A TIMES, Pridey, August 31, 1962 GOOD EVENING. By JACK GEARIN -- ; U.S. COURTS AS SEEN FROM AFAR ( Crown Attorney Bruce Affleck had some nice things to 'say recently about the U.S. judicial system (after complet- ing a five-day course at Northwestern University recently for prosecuting attorneys), but he wasn't 100 percent in favor 'of it, & For instance, he liked the U.S. system of public -defend- ers "'which surpasses our technically inept legal-aid scheme." In the U.S. the indigent accused has ythe benefit of an experienced (government-salaried) court-room lawyer acting for him; in Ontario, the accused who cannot afford a law- yer of his choosing must depend on a junior member of the 'Bar who is, for the most part, inexperienced (and reluctant to spend time away from the profitable part of his practice). E Mr. Affleck was unimpressed by what he called "the notable lack of dignity and formality" in'some of the courts of justice which he visited. In one instance, the, court clerk was sitting in .a short-sleeved shirt with open-neck. The judge sat back "'languidly" in a business suit with his feet extended outward across his desk. The charge was one of armed robbery and the setting was such that it was more reminiscent of a television plan than the actual court case. A sign in the rear of the courtroom warned against Smoking. Spectators' wandered in and out with feet shuffling. U. 8. GOBS FIND OSHAWA "EXTRA FRIENDLY" "Thank You' letters have been arriving in Oshawa from serewmen of the U.S.S. Amherst and U.S.S. Whitehall, who visited here last August 15'--- the letters express warm grati- tude for the weleome extended. Two of them ere reprinted herein. One was sent to Jack Mann, membership manager of the Oshawa C of C, Sergeant James Newell of the Serg- eants' Mess of the Ontarie Regiment, received the other. Here they are: Hi Sarge (and gang): Just a note to thank you all for the wonderful time we had in your town, especially at the Serg- eants' Mess. It was terrfiic. I shall never forget it. I know you all did a lot of work to put it over. I'd say to you: "A good job well done"'. * I'm on my way home for & while and it might interest you to know I'm writing this10,000 feet in the air on a United Airways pjAne. The trip is fine. The view is terrific. What a wonderful world we live in. Please thank all the men for our pleasant visit; all the people of Oshawa. It is one of the most friend- ly towns I've ever been in. Keep up the good work and may God bless each and every one of you. I shall say some prayers for all of you. I hope the Amherst and its crew left a good impression. > Good-bye now, Gene Metzweer, RR No. 4, Winfield, Kansas, U.S.A Dear Jack: "Just a note to tell you how very much I enoyed myself on my recent visit to your City. The way you~ folks went all out for the U.S. Navy that day will be long remembered by all of us. "I would appreciate it very much if you would pass on my thanks to Doug Fisher, the rest of the Chamber and, especially to Cecil Reid, the best tour director I have ever known. He gave me a wonderful tNp in and around your city. "In my opinion you could not have picked a better group of men than those of the U.S.S. Amherst and the U.S.S. Whitehall to entertain in the manner in which /- you did. My reason for saying this is not that I think they are better representatives of our country tha' others might be, but as you were probahly awa most of us were Reserve personnel; wha soon our departure from your country, returned homes across the U.S.A. aa "So you. see your good-will did not simply return to Cleveland, home port of the Whitehall, or to Detroit, home port of the Amherst. There are young men like myself in. many towns and cities busy telling their friends and familjes about the wonderful people of Oshawa in Canada. "Agai@' my most hearty thanks, BEN CRIPS" fe Thormopolis, Wyoming, U.S.A. LET'S CLEAN UP THE DOWNTOWN AREA The Oshawa Junior Chamber of Commerce is toying with the idea of launching a "Let's-Clean--Up The Downtown-Area"' ' campaign, which is long overdue. One of the strongest sup- porters for such a campaign undoubtedly would be Dr. Oscar Mills who has been trying to promote such a civic campaign for several months now. He 'says (and quite rightfully, that Oshawa has "one of the filthiest downtown areas in Canada." The doctor goes into slow boil every time he sees debris-lit- tered King street. (which is unattractive enough even when it is tidied up) especially in the morning before the janitors, etc. get around te cleaning things up. There are a lot of citizens who would like to support such a campaign, wholeheartedly. WHEN WILL THE TRACKS COME UP? Some people who should know are not too certain that the CNR tracks will be taken up in the immediate future, despite the anxiety of public-spirited citizens' to have the "downtown blight" removed as quickly as possible. Although 'all the principal parties concerned are in full - agreement (at long last) on their removal, although the CNR previously announced that this may be accomplished sometime next September, there is at least one more hurdle to be crossed. ; That is the passage of a special act through the Provincial Legislature (scheduled for next November) which would enable the corporation to pay the three user-firms (Bathe and Me- Lellan, Lander-Stark and McLaughlin Coal and Fuel) compen- sation in the amount of $10,000 each. Some legal experts predict smooth sailing for this special act at Queén's Park; but, once again, its Passage can not be accepted as a certainty until it is achieved. As they say at the football game: 'Anything can happen before the final whistle." The CNR and the firms could allow the tracks to be re- moved in the early Fall on completion of the proposed new coal un-loading yard at Athol and Mary streets. The chances of having the tracks removed this Fall are good, but it would be premature at this time to say that they definitely will be. The City engineering departmen®has made plans for an ex- tensive over-haul and examination job on the under-street services such ag sewers, gas mains and road and sidewalks foundations. The CNR should have a statement soon as to when work will start on the Athol-Mary unloading site which is to be used as an alternate yard by the three firms.

Soviet May Possess 'Clean Atom Bombs By DAVE McINTOSH OTTAWA (CP Canada from current Russian nuclear tests on anything like the seale of, last fall, said Thursday. This has led to some specu- lation here that the Soviet Un- ion has developed a "clean" fallout. It is known that the Russian nuclear tests last fall were "leaner" than previous Soviet trials. In the words of the sci- entists, there was 80 per cent viet tests which preceded the 1958-61. The 20 - per - caused an outcry around the cent dirtiness There has been no radioactive fallout on officials bomb--that is, one from which there is little or no radioactive cleanliness compared with 50 to 60 per cent cleanliness in So- Russian-broken moratorium of ing, the level of radioactive fall- out in Toronto had jumped by as much a_ 1,000 times over previous readings. There have been eight known Soviet tests in the latest series but,' officials said, there has been no marked increase in the level of short-lived radiation as there was last year, when the govrnment kept the Canadian public posted almost day by day on the radiation count. Neither has there been, offi- cials said, any evidence of a rise in the radioactive iodine-131 count in fluid milk as has o¢- curred in the United States mid- west, There was no more than a barely detectable amount of jodine-131 in liquid milk in Can. ada.

The figures issues last fall at the time of the tests dealt only with short-lived radioactivity.

The current synod took a step Blind Hitch-Hiker Killed On Highway PARRY SOUND, Ont. (CP)-- day reported discovery of a way to rid the body of strontium, one of the dangerous elements absorbed through radioactive fallout. The technique, developed ex- perimentally on cats and mice, is to have the radioactive mate. rial screted in saliva and sweat. Dr. Setala, professor of path- ology at the University of Hel- sinki, reported it at the Inter- national Congress of Radiology. Strontium, occurring in both natural and man-made fallout, lodges in the bones. Dr. Setala said it is neces. sary to get strontium out of the in this vital area of research had been to get the strontium out without killing the patient. WOULD DIE QUICKLY If the kidneys were used to excrete the strontium, 60 much bone-building calcium would go out along with it that.the patient would die wihin a: few hours. He-found that, by giving ani- mals an extract from the para- thyroid gland, he could get the strontium out of the bones into the circulatory system without drawing out any significant amount of calcium. A drug known as philocarpine nitrate then was used to stimu- mie the salivary gat and vent the sécreted strontium from being re-absorbed into the body. He said the solution turned out to be an ointment spread on the body that ren- dered the strontium insoluble in water and therefore easy te wash off. TESTS ON SELF In addition to using labora- tory animals, he had tested this ointment on one human being, himself, by deliberately admin- istering strontium to his left forearm to see if the ointment would stop it from. being ab. sorbed, It stopped it completely, he said.

Bulloch was suspended from the Kingston police depart- ment Thursday. following an in- eident Saturday night in which a man said police shot him in the back, kicked him and tried to run him down with a cruiser, Chief Constable Robert Nes. bitt announced the suspension before a meeting of the police commission here.
