he Oshawa Zones Published by Canadian Newspapers Limited 86 King St. E., Oshawa, Ontar'~ T. L. Wilson, Publisher WEDNESDAY, OCTOBER 3, 1962 -- PAGE 6 Campus Of University No Place For Bigotry It is always tragic when bigotry, prejudice and ignorance lead to vio- lence and bloodshied, but it is particu- larly shocking when these occur on the campus of a university, and insti- tution of higher learning supposedly dedicated to intellectual growth and achievement. That is the deeper tra- gedy of what has been happening at the University of Mississippi. The university authorities could have made a declaration for the rights of man that would have blazed across the United States and lit fires of hope around the world. Instead, they thought of their jobs, dismissed their responsibilities as men of intellect and scholarship, and kept quiet or timidly supported the neanderthal governor of the state. When the president of Yale wags \asked what his university would a it found itself under pressure from legislators and the stu- dent body to keep out a qualified stu- dent because of race or religion, he replied that all the resources of Yale would be used for the education of that one student, if necessary, and all the objectors could leave. The Yale statement. is the sort of declaration one should expect from a university. It is no argument to say that Yale is so richly endowed that it can afford to be independent; universities became powerful and in- dependent by exercising their intellec- tual muscles, Indeed, that is their fundamental reason for being: To broaden the minds as well as to inform the students, and to afford graduates and instructors an opportunity to pursue scholarship without fear. That sort of atmosphere obviously does not exist at Mississippi and one can won- der if that institution does, in fact, warrant the title of university. One wonders if any scholar of integrity could live in such an atmosphere. Mississippi does, of course, have an excellent football team. More Than Generosity U Thant, acting secretary-general of the United Nations, has proposed that all aid to underdeveloped coun- tries be channelled through UN agen- cies. If the UN can work out a system whereby the aid is put to more effi- cient use than it is at present by the needy nations, the proposal will be worthy of support. The United States and the Soviet Union have poured more than $35.5 billion between them (by far the greater amount of it by the U.S.) into Africa. The results, in relation to the effort, are meagre. India has been a highly favored country, receiving massive aid from the Colombo Plan, and the United States, and some from the Soviet Union. As a result, India has achieved a remarkable growth of heavy in- dustry, along with a phenomenal ex- pansion of capital investment. But India also has a socialist government strongly committed to central econ- omic planning. A detailed report writ- ten by B. R. Shenoy, director of the school of social sciences at India's Gujarat University, and P.M. Boar- man, professor of economists at Buck- nell University in Pennsylvania, has this to say: : "To the acompaniment of high- sounding slogans oratory, economic activity is regi- mented in ever greater degree. Unons- .cionably large amounts of investment resources are forced into the public sector and the non-consumer. trades as a result. Heavy industries are pro- moted at the expense of consumer goods industries and both are favored at the expense of agriculture... In- dian national income rose from 1955 on at an annual rate of but 2.9 per cent; unemployment rose from 5.3 million at the close of the First Plane (1956) to nine million at the close of the Second Plan (1961) and might be as much as 12 million at the close of the Third (1966) ... All imports, most exports and the bulk of invest- ment resources are subject to state control and direction. This has en- dowed privileged groups of people -- state functionaries -- with arbitrary power (including police power) over the employment, the livelihood and the well-being of virtually the entire nation." This is the appraisal of India, con- sidered the most advanced of the needy nations. Much more is needed than generos- ity on the part of the "haves". Another Treaty Broken While the U.S. government was using the weight of federal authority against injustice at the University of Mississippi, a quiet little tragedy of injustice was being enacted not too far from Washington. Here is the story as told by the Christian Science Monitor: Many a tribe of American Indians long has known what it is to be a displaced people. But that this list should be added to in this age and by violation of a treaty written by George Washington is a supreme irony. Two hundred Iroquois Indians, mostly of the Seneca nation, gath- ered recently on American Indian Day at a tribal burying ground in the Cornplanter Reservation in west- ern New York State. There they staged a ritual dance to the rhythm of tom-toms in honor of Chief Corn- planter, who signed a treaty in 1794 by which the Seneca nation was She Oshawa Times T. L. WILSON, Publisher Cc.

Now, with the building of a dam at Kinzua, Pennsylvania, just across the state line, most of the Seneca, land will be flooded by a lake formed of the spreading waters of the upper Allegheny River. For many in a motorcade which wound through the valley to where work has begun on the dam it will be their last view of the fertile lands that are center of their traditions. The major tragedy of this situa- tion is that there are -- or were -- alternatives to the Kinzua Dam, and to the breach of faith it represents. Let it be granted that Pittsburgh and the Allegheny Valley should be pro- tected from floods which have their headwaters here. But reputable en- gineering opinion holds that the pur- pose could have been served by a project at another location or that the waters could have been diverted northward to Lake Erie. The dollar cost would have been greater, but what is' the cost to American honor when to the Iroquois and to some white men the lake above the Kinzua Dam will be known as the "Lake of Perfidy"?

McINTYRE HOOD Special London (Eng.) Correspondent For The Oshawa Times LONDON -- The summer of 1962 has proved to be one of the most disappointing in many years for the seaside resorts. The seaside Jlandladies, the small hotel keepers, the enter- tainment groups, and even the municipal councils of the larger resorts all have the same st to tell. Weather conditions and he lure of the sun-drenched 'bgach- es of continental Europe made drastic inroads into the business which in times past be- lonced to seaside towns from Blackpool to Margate, from Scarborough to Folkestone, Brighton and Margate. New holiday trends and indus- trial recessicn in the north of England and in Scotland are other reasons cited for the fact that tens of thousands of people have been staying away from the coast resorts this summer. And in some of them, people who have invested their savings in facilities for holiday-makers are wondering if their 'golden days" are over. All is not well with the enter- tainment side of the seaside re- sorts. Falling box office returns indicate a growing public indif- ference to the shows which used to be regarded as an essential part of a summer holiday. Bingo sessions have. usurped the place formerly held by stage and beach pier shows. In those seaside towns where the entertainments are operated by the municipalities as amenities for visitors, heavy losses, to be made good by the taxpayers, have been recorded. YOUR HEALTH Arthritis Cases Helped By Heat By JOSEPH G. MOLNER, MD Dear Dr. Molner: Is a heating pad good for arthritis? It seems to relieve the pains in my arms and back at night and in damp weatier. Rut I was told its use dries up the bones. Now I am wor- ried.--A. M. Go 'right ahead. with your heating pad. It won't dry up the bones or do any other damage. Heat is one of the universally approved ways of helping arth- ritis victims. It doesn't make vey much difference how the heat is applied -- by pad, hot water bottle, heat lamp (with discretion), sitting near the fire, or whatever. Any method that is handy is fine. I hope whoever gave you he dismal misinformation about the * bones "'drying,"' sees this article and stops passing that story around. It would be too bad if anyone sacrificed the help of heating pads because of such an incerrect scare-story. Dear Dr. Molner: Please ex- fungus (as opposed to germ, yeast or virus) infection. We don't know exactly how fungus infections are trans- mitted. But we DO know thot the athlete's foot fungus 'thrives on warm, moist skin. For a sim- ile, moss may grow in a shady, moist corner of your back yard, but try to "plant" it in a dry, sunny corner, and it dies. Thus 'walking in a_hospitai corridor barefoot isn't likely to give the ailment to anyone else. The floor is dry and 30 degrees cooler than your foot! I prefer slippers for adequate and sanitary reasons, but -I think athlete's fodt spreads only under circumstances which let the fungus jump from its habitat to another area of skin ade- quately warm and moist. And that's also the reason why it doesn't spread all over the body. It's only on the feet that we wear shoes and socks. (Bare- foot natives of the Central Paci- fic islands don't seem to have this trouble.) Different regions give varied reasons for the drop in seaside holiday-making in 1962, Resorts in North Wales, and on the East Coast, and Blackpool and Scar- borough, are among those hit by the bad weather. But a rise in unemployment and short time working in Scotland and the North East has had a part to play in the dwindling patronage. At the other extreme, it is re- ported that workers in' the Mid- lands are so prosperous that they can afford to enjey hoii- days abroad, and they have been doing just that. In the South East and along the South Coast, the large hotels have had as many rooms empty as they have had filled. E- B. Johnson, chairman of the South. eastern Divisional Council of the British Hotels and Restaurants Association said, however, that the medium and small hotels were not suffering to the same extent, but the large ones had had many vacant rooms and suites. "It is the same story from Folkestone to Bournemouth," Mr. Johnson said, "but we do not know why this class of trade has suddenly declined to such a large extent." COMBINATION OF REASONS J. Parker, general secretary of the British Federation of Hotel and Boarding House Asso- ciations, describing the 1962 sea- son 'as being very mediocre, gave a combination of reasons for this. He thought it was due to a combination of bad weath- er, the cotton industry reces- sion, and the increasing compe- tition of foreign travel, touring holidays without hotel bookings, and caravans and_ holiday camps. Brighton blames the weather, plus the spate of publicity which lures holidaymakers abroad. One guest house proprietor there senses a trend which may be- come cumulative. He says: "The day when the whole fam- ily spent a fortnight by the sea at the same boarding house every year is over. People with cars may come for a few days and then move on." And the day may also be over when municipal councils will be willing to spend money lavishly on providing entertainments to attract the summer visitors who are now so much decreased in numbers that mounting defic'ts have to be met out of the municipal treasuries. UNCHANGING RITUAL The coronation service fol- lowed in 1953 was derived from that used for King Edgar of Bath in 973, plain impetigo? Once has it, how do you get it out of the house?--MRS. E. R. L. It's caused by the staphylo- coccus germ, and if it keeps re- curring in your home, suspect a "staph" carrier. Meantime a patient should be isolated in one room, with ut- most attention to prevent con- amination from spreading. In nurseries where impetigo recurs the cause has been traced to attendants who, al- though not ill themselves, carry the staph germ in their noses and innocently spread it to others. Dear Drr. Molne: I have a de- Sire to eat orange peel along with the orange. Is-it wholesome to do so?--D, 8. L. Sure, but wash it first. Many people like candied citrus peel. Some grind whole oranges in a blender. Dear Dr. Molner: While hos- pitalized I heard a well-known physician tell a patient that it was not possible to transfer athlete's foot (which she had) to other parts of the body, or for her to give it to' other people if she walked on hospital floors without slippers. He may be right, but a number of people will be waiting to hear what YOUL say on the subject. -- A. L. B i If he'd said not "probably"' in- stead of not "possible,"' I'd go along with his view.

COX City Tax Collecter OTTAWA REPORT Parliament Opens To Old And New By PATRICK NICHOLSON OTTAWA --Once a year, at around 2.30 p.m. Ottawa time, the afternoon sun is startled by the evening dress of several hundred women making their way up Parliamnt Hill. By car, in taxi and on foot they come, all except one who ar- rives in a horse-drawn open carriage escorted by Mounties, Canada's First Lady, the wife of the Governor General. This is the most startling facet of the annual ceremony of 'the opening of Parliament: the daylight arrival of the evening plumaged wives of politicians and diplomats, and their daugh- ters and their friends. But to the denizens of Parlia- ment Hill, a warm joy contrasts with formality of all those rare elbow - length white gloves, This is the truly happy reunion with old friends, even though they may represent po- litical enmity. STRANGE NEW FACES Last week Ottawa saw the opening of not just a new ses- sion, but a new Parliament; and one which brought a per- haps record 101 new faces, as well as 12 old faces returned after several years' absence. Many of the newcomers are un- usually. young, and as_ they sought their way around, they brought to mind the famous line of Shakespeare about the schoolboy's "shining morning face". The first assembly of the new and old faces in the Chamber clearly revealed the change in this new Parljament. There are nearly twice 'as many Liberals as during the past four years; 30 Social Credit had been none; and in that dim far corner to the Speaker's right, 18 New Democratic MPs now sit where part of the huge Conservative representa. tion used to find it 'hard to at- tract notice. The most vivid splash of color among the sombrely-clad men was' Niagara Falls' Judy La- Marsh in a bright Liberal-red costume--the more vividly ap- parent since this comparative rookie, who had so quickly starred in the last Parliament, has now been promoted to front-bench status, Another well - remembered Liberal notably promoted is Fort William's industrious Bert Badanai, who has been ad- vanced from the back row to almost the dead-centre of the Liberal block. And he, I noted, was receiving the very genuine expressions of sympathy from his many friends on the recent passing of his popular English born wife after a long illness. The public gallerie- were packed, as always on Parlia- BY-GONE DAYS 25 YEARS AGO Oshawa Board of Education decided to carry on night classes at the OCVI for the first time in five years. W. J. Lamb, veteran execu- tive of General Motors of Can- ada, was appointed manager of the re-opened Regina Plant. The city assessor reported Oshawa's 1937 population as 24,844, an increase of 152 over 1936. The 1937 assessment was given as $26,109,980, an in- crease of $9,179,690 over 1936. The Oshawa Yacht Club closed one of its best sailing seasons. Bruce Minns and Les Stevens were declared club champions for the 1937 year. Kiwanians Bert Coulter, J. Souch, Roland Virtue and Bryce A. Brown, president of the Oshawa Club, were named dele- gates to attend the 19th annual District Convention of Kiwanis International in Hamilton. Mayor Alex Hall made a record election speaking tour, addressing 40 Conservative meetings in 34 ridings. The annual reunion of the 136th Durham Overseas Battal- ion was largely attended in Port Hope. Two Oshawa veter- ans, Percy H. Jobb and William Moyse were elected to the executive for 1938. J S.. Woodsworth, MBP, Na tional Leader of the CCF, ad- dressed a party election rally in the OCVI Auditorium. The Oshawa Motorcycle Club played host to some 35 visiting riders throughout the province at a dinner. M. J .Fisher, host and president of the Oshawa Club, and Frank Carr, secre- tary, spoke at the reception. N. H. Hireock was elected president; Mrs. D. Hainer, vice- president; Mrs. C. Slack, secre-- tary and W. Scattergood, treas- urer, of the Ontario Bible Class at the election of officers' con- ducted by Rev. G. C. R.: Me- uade. MPs _ where: ment's great occasions. In her usual place of honour sat Mrs Diefenbaker, as always "neat but not gaudy" as the saying is. Surprisingly, next to her sat Tommy Douglas, the NDP leader who is now seeking to win himself a seat in Parlia- ment. The government and op- position galleries were packed with» wives and supporters of members and, as one observer acutly remarked, the mink stoles clustered in the Liberal section while the government gallery was less flamboyantly peacocked. THE MAN OF THE HOUR The centre of the stage at the first session was of course the man being selected _unani- mously as Speaker, Alberta's Marcel Lambert--and the West may take pride in that two Speakers in a row have now been Alberta-born. In graciously accepting ¢he honor of this high office, Mr. Speaker Lambert expressed the hope that "the acute cross-fire" to be expected in this House of Minorities would not pick him as its prime target. And that comment brought to my mind a book I am reading which de- scribes Canada's most glorious battle in the Second World War --'Dieppe", by Terence Robert- son. Describing the hottest spot in the acute cross-fire on the Dieppe beaches just 22 years ago, he wrote: "In front of the Casino, bare- headed young Marcel Lambert was sitting on the turret of his immobilized tank directing the crew's machine-gun fire," After nine courageous hours thus spent, he was led away captive to spend three frustra- ting years in a German prison camp. The anticipated parliamentary cross-fire won't have such a frustrating sequel for this active and able young French-Alber- tan.
