Wilson, Publisher TUESDAY, SEPTEMBER 11, 1962 -- PAGE 6 Urge New Examination Of Combines Measures The original purpose of anti-com- bines legislation was to protect the public from price-kiting cartels and to preserve the healthy effect of com- petition in business. But now anti- combines investigators often give the impression that they suspect all busi- nessmen of being crooks, and the atmosphere of suspicion may well be doing more harm than the Act does good, . Carl Pollock, head of Dominion Electrohome and president of the Canadian Manufacturers' Association, said last week that "if the national interest lies in lower costs and im- proved industrial efficiency, then it should be recognized that many of the industrial procedures and arrange- ments which would unquestionably accomplish this are not being follow- ed, either because they would contravene combines law or be- cause it is feared they might do so. It is only realistic to acknowledge this fact and to acknow- ledge that it is one of those factors in our costs about which management can do little." Dr. R. V. Yohe, president of B. F. Goodrich Canada Ltd., was a member of the recent Canadian Mission to Europe which examined the rela» tions between government, labor man- agement in six industrialized and booming European countries. He told an audience last week that "in all countries employers are organized into industrial associations of man- agement and these associations are grouped into federations" (corres- ponding to the strong European labor federations) ... Incidentally these.employer associations dr federa- tions are very strong and they meet regularly to discuss. all phases of management activities, They may, in some cases, even set prices, develop and carry out plans. for rationaliza- tion or consolidation of industry and even minor cartels may be made. In most cases these things have to be registered with government, which may or may not approve. If such arrangements appear to be good for that country's over-all welfare and competitiveness, approval is generally given, Obviously such machinations are strictly illegal under our own Combines Act, for here in Canada I, for example, am suspect if I even have lunch with my counterparts in the rubber and chemical industries." Afraid Of Leisure There are plenty of economic objec- tions to a shorter work week at present, but we do not share the fear of some supporters of the status quo that less time spent at work will mean more time spent in hanky- panky or on psychiatrists' couches. Admittedly, there is some pretty weighty evidence against us. Dr. Ian Fraser, the president of the British Medical Society, for example, said the other day that while medicine has made tremendous progress in the fight against physical disease, man's moral health is on the decline and largely on account of the black plague of leisure. The shrinking work week is the main contributor to what Dr. Fraser calls the number of the leisure- stricken, and it frightens him. It seems that an extraordinary number of people have a compulsion to work, which is not always rooted in material need or desire, and when these people find leisure forced on them they go to pieces. We'll have to take the word of the experts that there are enough of these people to affect the moral.fabric of sociey when their individuals threads begin to snap -- enough to add substantially to the breakdown of family life, weak- ening of the church, and increase in selfish indulgence. But there are too few compulsive workers among news- papermen for us to take too seriously the predictions of doom inspired by the extension of leisure. Or perhaps newspapermen are better conditioned to withstand the horrors of leisure. We have a suspicion, however, that so-called progress is largely the result of man's constant search for methods of eliminating work. Nine out of ten inventions have been the product of imaginative laziness. And if we can train people for work, we can surely train for leisure. We doubt if there are more compulsive workers than there are eager bums. Pilots Are Perturbed The problem of aircraft noise was intensified with the advent of the jet. People living in the vicinity of the airports that handle the huge jet-powered airliners that now cross continents and oceans complained so bitterly about the noise of aircraft taking off and landing that various measures have been taken to lessen the nuisance. Adaptions to aircraft have been made, and regulations pass- ed to govern rates of climb. Now pilots are complaining that the effort to reduce noise may also have reduced safety. The Guild of Air- liner Pilots has presented a brief to the flight safety committee of the British government's ministry of aviation, charging that the fitting of silencers to aircraft cuts efficiency and power, and steep climb procedure magnifies risk of engine failure and stalling.

We do not know of any similar complaints by pilots of jet airliners flying for Canadian and American lines, and this may be just an out- burst by British pilots angered by outcries against their handling of their massive machines. But the Brit- ish pilots seem to have built up a strong case, and doubtless the res- ponse of the aviation ministry will be closely studied here as well as in Britain. Other Editors' Views RUSSIAN POLICY (New York Times) The cold war originated June 5, 1944, the eve of the. Normandy in- vasion when Stalin told a Kremlin dinner party: "This war is not as in the past ; whoever occupies a territory also imposes on it his own social system. Everyone imposes his own system as far as army can reach. It cannot be otherwise". This may still be considered a keystone of Soviet foreign policy whose methods have been "destalin- . ized" by Khrushchev but whose es- sential philosophy remains, INTAXICATED YOUR HEALTH Keep Diet Watch there are exceptions as every- body knows, but in general heavy women have heavy ba- | bies, exceptionally thin women During Pregnancy By JOSEPH G. MOLNER, M.D. Dear Dr. Molner: What about counting calories during preg- nancy? I'm in my_ seventh month. Should a carefully- controlled diet accomplish as much now as normally? Do some foods "'burn off" more readily than others, or is a calorie a calorie? For several weeks I have been on a diet that would ordi- narily take off half a pound a week, but so far it hasn't seemed to help much. My diet is sensible--high pro- tein but few of those delectable desserts I love.--MRS. B, R. Yes, a calorie is a calorie. But there are important things women should know about diet in pregnancy. And about diet before it, too. Some women have moderate nutritional deficiencies that don't make themselves known, ani perhaps don't amount to much, But when pregnancy be- gins, the additional demands of the baby turn a small deficien- cy into a large one. If a woman starts a pregnancy with such deficiencies, she can't expect to make them all up. So--pay rea- sonable attention to diet all the time. There's also some point to keeping your weight correct be- fore pregnancy. A baby's weight at birth is frequently proportional to the mother's at the time of conception. Oh, REPORT FROM U.K. Londoners Causing Cottage Shortage By M. McINTYRE HOOD Special London (Eng.) Correspondent For The Oshawa Times BARCOMBE, Sussex -- Be- cause cottages and other small homes in Sussex villages are being bought at high prices by "foreigners", as peopie from outside the district are termed, many young people cannot find anywhere to live when they marry. They are obliged either to move away to other towns, or to stay uncomfortably with their in-laws. This was the crux of a prob- lem which was raised by Rev. William Webb, for 15 years rector of the village of Bar- combe. He placed it before the executive committee of the Sus- sex Association of Parish Coun- cils. Its members agreed to make an investigation into the whole matter. BLAMES LONDONERS In this Sussex village, a "'for- eigner'" may be someone who comes from only the next 'vil- lage to grab off a home which might be used by a local couple. The people Mr. Webb really has in mind in his complaint, however, are Londoners who want to get-away-from-it-all, and come down into Sussex and buy cottages for what he calls "fantastic prices far beyond the means of local folk." "Having bought a cottage" he said, 'they spend a great deal of money adding all sorts of improvements, and then they be- come communters to London, or use the cottage only at weekends." NOT GOOD THING Mr. Webb declares that in the village of Barcombe where he served as rector, young people are forced to go to live in Lewes of some other town after they are married. As an alter: native, they have to live with relatives, which he does not consider to be a good thing for them, or for the relatives. Some of them are members of families whose names have been on the register of the parish since 1580, "The situation is extremely serious" said Mr, Webb, "and is tending to change the whole social pattern of our villages. I know what happens in Bar- combe can be duplicated in all small villages in-both East and West Sussex. I do not blame the people who buy the cottages. The only soiution I can see to the whole problem of the young people is to build more council accommodation in the villages." NEED MORE MONEY "This can be done only if more money is allocated for the purpose. In this village of Bar- combe, nd council houses have been built since 1957. Although the rural council has plans for building more, these plans have little babies, and average women have average babies. Having a very heavy baby is s nothing to boast about and it doesn't mean that the baby will be extra healthy. Average weight is best. Overly large ba- bies are more dangerous to de- liver. Having large babies (along with being overweight) is a frequent sign that diabetes may develop later in the mother. Getting back to pregnancy, don't let yourself put on too much weight. About 18 to 20 pounds is maximum for best health of both mother and baby. Get plenty of protein, plenty of calcium (from milk, as the best source) and vitamin C, citrus fruits and juices being the source, There was a day when protein was "supposed" to cause tox- emia. How this idea started I don't know, but it was a dan. gerous mistake. Actually pro- tein deficiency makes a woman more prone to toxemia, besides helping to cause varying de- grees of anemia. Baby, of course, grabs what he 'needs of what is available, and mother suffers. The old say- ing of "a tooth for each baby" originated in the days when women didn't get enough cal- pg and babies robbed them it. Lack of Vitamin C has been shown to be one cause of pre- maturity. More tomorrow on diet and pregnancy. Dear Dr. Molner: I am in my early 20's. What might be the effect of having one ovary re- moved? Would it cause emo. tional upset, fatigue or trouble during menopause? -- MRS. cannot be translated into the p y building of the homes required unless there is money to do the work." It is apparent that the prob- lem which faces the village of Barcombe and its parson, and other villages in Sussex is greater than in any other county. It is a matter of sta. tistical record that there had been a very heavy influx of people from the London area, and even places farther afield into Sussex. It is considered by many older people as an ideal location in which to live in re- tirement, and this is one factor which has produced = an abnormal demand for the avail- able living accommodation in the county, No, none of these.

Tom while here (he was de- feated by Liberal Vernon Singer in 1959) was always one of the sounder private members. His present thought is about both highway and water safety. He believes that there should be public workshops in both fields. At them he would change the usual approach of inviting "'ex- perts". Instead, he would bring in the practical men. He would have the panels composed of police- men who are patrolling the highways and (to some extent) the waterways. He believes--and undoubtedly with good reason that they would have many practical pro- posals to offer. The chances of his idea being adopted are slim, however. | For these men would have criticism of present methods. And this could be construed as criticism of the present men running the: show. And the present men wouldn't like that.

Pear- son has swept away any linger- ing doubts that he'll move a non - confidence motion during coming parliamentary session, speculation here centres on the form it may take. Mr. Pearson has two choices. He can move a straight motion of non-confidence in the govern- ment. Or he can move one cit- ing a list of particular com- plaints against the government. Form and content have little bearing on whether a motion is challenging the government. Parliamentary authorities hold that an amendment to the ad- dress'the government moves in reply to the Speech from the Throne is a motion of non-con- fid But an amendment to is defective or di d and the other normal, there is no ill ef- fect at all from having the faulty one removed, Dear Dr. Molner: When ei- ther my husband or I eat either fresh or canned asparagus, there is a strong odor to the urine.

BY-GONE DAYS 20 YEARS AGO Superintendent J. H. McDiar- mid, of the Oshawa Railway Company, reported a record 161,892 passengers were carried by bus during August. Most Rev. J. C. McGuigan, Archbishop of the Toronto Arch- diocese, officiated at the open- ing of the new Holy Cross School, Simcoe street south. About 40 air cadets applied for enrolment in the Oshawa Air Cadet Squadron No. 151. Offi- cers of the Squadron were: Lt.- Col. P. H. Jobb, commanding officer; Harry Rigg, adjutant, Frank McLellan, flight com- mander and Dr. F. G. Pym, medical officer. The Oshawa Police Commis- sion decided to issue permits to women taxi drivers of 21 years of age and over. Rev. C. T. Schmidt, pastor of Grace Lutheran Church, was appointed a chaplain in the United States Army. Miss Jane Cole, Reg. N., of the Oshawa General Hospital, was honored by the directors, the Alumnae Association and staff members in recognition of 25 years service with the hos- pital. Alderman Alex S. McLeese, who came to Oshawa in 1910 as editor of The Ontario Reformer and retained that post for nine years, died in the Oshawa Gen- eral Hospital, Sixty-eight donors who ap- peared at the local Blood Donor Clinic set a new attendance record for the organization. Harry A. Newman, well-known cattle breeder of Dunbarton, purchased the farm of the late G. Luther Middleton, former reeve of Pickering Township. The Oshawa Kinsmén Club ap- pointed Don E. Jackson as chairman of the *'Milk for Brit- ain" Committee. A total of 3398 pupils enrolled at the Oshawa Public Schools for the fall term. Capt. Alex C. Hall arrived safely in Britain with the latest Canadian contingent. Prior to his enlistment, he. was a bar- rister in the city and served as crown attorney and later as mayor of the city. that amendment is not a new motion of non-confidence. With Parliament opening Thursday, Sept. 27, it is likely that Mr. Pearson's chance to move his nation will come Mon- day, Oct. 1, when party leaders are expected to make their first major speeches of the session. The Liberal leader said last week in Algoma East he feels it his duty to propose a motion to.test the Conservative gov- ernment's strength in the Com. mons. The Conservatives hold 116 seats in the 265 - seat House, Liberals 100, Social Credit 30 and New Democratic Party 18. There is one vacancy. Only five times in the 16 Par- liaments since 1900 has the leader of the opposition moved a non-confidence motion at the opening of Parliament immedi- ately after a general election. All were defeated. Usually it is felt that if a gov- ernment is Ictd with a com- fortable working majority a non-confidence motion is out of place so soon after an election. This situation does not prevail this year. The classic form of non-con- fidence motions is an opposition resolution asking the Commons to approve a statement that the governor - general's advisers -- the cabinet -- "'do not. possess the confidence of the country." But in moving non-confidence motions since 1900, opposition leaders have not been- so blunt. In 1911, Liberal Opposition Leader Sir Wilfrid Laurier moved a motion saying there was "'a flagrant conflict of opin- ion'"' in the Conservative cabi- net of Robert Borden on naval defence policy which 'should not receive the approval of the House." In 1945, Conservative Opposi. tion Leader John Bracken moved a motion declaring that the Liberal government of Mac- kenzie King had failed on three counts to carry out demobiliza- tion fairly, to reconvert to peacetime conditions speedily and effectively, and to meet the post-war housing crisis. In 1953, George Drew, then leading the Conservati¥'es in op- position, moved a moition that former prime minister Louis St. Laurent said even the Liberals could support if it had'n't been moved in the form of non-con- fidence. Mr. Drew's resolutiion said: "The welfare of Canatla is de- pendent upon free comypetition, and... the prosperity and sin- cerity of all Canadians; will be advanced by government poli- cies which will restore markets for primary. products aind gen- erally promote a high volume of international trade." In 1957, after the Conserva- tives came to power with a mi- nority group in the Ceymmons, Mr. St. Laurent as oy position leader did not move a non-con- fidence motion. But in 1958, after the' Conser- vatives won a sweeping' major- ity, Mr. Pearson moveid a mo- tion "that a high level of em- ployment and prospérity in Canada requires a high and ex. panding level of interi2ational trade; and that this will be pro- moted more effectively. by vig- orous measures for the expan. sion of.trade with all ciountries than by efforts to divert trade from one country to ano ther." This was aimed at P'rime Minister Diefenbaker's state. ment, expressed after a trip to the United Kingdom, 'that a switch in Canadian trade from the United States to the United Kingdom by as much as 15 per . Frankenstein in the * competing with private elivdaaee! We pay exorbitant taxes to maintain a large, arrogant form enter- prise, and an excessive bureau- cracy which battens on the tax- payers whilst enjoying a lel- sured and secured work pace denied to those taxpayers. .. WHO DARE CRY "HALT!" ?. That is the picture. Deep- thinking observers here ask if any one political party would dare to halt electoral bribery and take the necessary unpop- ular steps. Would any govern- ment slash the army and the civil service, throwing thou- sands out of work? Impose the means test on welfare pay- ments? Cut the racketeers off the gravy train of the Unem- ployment Insurance Fund? Im- pose restrictions on foreign cap- ital and foreign union leader- ship? Cut back tariffs and drive our plants to become competi- tive in the world picture? Few. believe that such steps could be taken by any federal government composed of one political party, because of the votes which these programmes would cost. Just a year ago, I asked Hon. L. B. Pearson, leader of the Liberal party, if he considered that, for these reasons, Canada should in the present conditions be governed by a national coali- tion of all parties. "Solutions to political prob- lems have always been handi- capped by party warfare," he told me. "Some actions must be unpopular to begin with. This is true now more than ever." But he did not believe the sit- uation to be grave enough to . merit the extreme step of a coalition government, A year has passed and t Mr. Pearson says: "Not a coali- tion is required, but good wise and far-sighted government pol- icies in which both parties--as such -- can co-operate for the good of the country, imple mented by men who are con cerned with the national welfare rather than party advantage." So in Mr. Pearson's view, we need inter-party "co-operation," but not all - party coalition. Ideally, the two need not be far TODAY IN HISTORY By THE CANADIAN PRESS ° Sept. 11, 1962... Gen.

But Mr. Bracken reminded Mr. King that the wordtng of the motion was exactlyr the same as Mr. King had usied in 1934 when Liberal oppevsition hopes were riding high lefore the 1935 election, in which Con- servative Prime Minister R.
