ate lg S hg attesting 2 THE OSHAWA TIMES, Fridey, October 5, 1962 GOOD EVENING By JACK GEARIN 'Probe Told MLA Killed Charges By JOHN LeBLANC Papal Tradition Out The Window members of his court, including CP trom AP-Reuters lclub in Niagara Falls by police THE JAYCEES -- A SUCCESS STORY The success story of the Jaycee movement seems to be getting into the, public prints more and more these days, which is as it should be. Remember how the Oshawa club observed National Jay- cee Week September 18 with a colorful dinner at the Hotel Genosha, with more than 150 present (their biggest social-do in years), including Val Swaine of Kingston, the dynamic young president of the Provincial organization? That undertaking alone would have done justice to any of our more senior service clubs with a far greater member- ship, with a far fatter bankroll; but it was typical of the Jaycees that they were not afraid to gamble for something worthwhile such as that dinner, that added greatly to their fast-growing prestige -- this sense of daring, thank goodness, extends to politics where the Jaycees play a keen (but non-partisan) interest in municipal affairs, while most other local organizations fence-sit, do little that would contribute to a more enlightened electorate, The \Jaycees once again will hold their Town Hall Forum before the municipal elec- tion December 3, where all candidates will be given equal treatment in an open forum Mr. Swaine made reference to an introduction to an article in the July issue of The Canada under the heading, "The World Is Our Counity! -- The Amazing success story of the Jaycees". The intro reads: "The picture most people form of the successful business man is not perhaps a flatternig one. He is pictured as tough, hard-boiled with few interests outside of business and no inter- ests that take precedence over it. "Times are changing. An indication of the change is provided by the Junior Chamber of Commerce, a world-wide organization that puts service to humanity before everything else. The Jaycees have 300,000 members in 67 countries and, according to the author, they constitute the most potent force for peace in the world. "There are over 200,000 Jaycees in Canada with 340 units serving communities from coast to coast, For five years in succession Canadiar. units have won the 'outstanding unit in the world award' at the World 'Congress" The remark about the Jaycees being the most potent peace force, etc., does sound a bit extravagant, but those who study the Jaycees' program from close range can not help but be impressed -- the above article, incidentally, has a color picture with an Oshawa angle -- it shows R. Rorrett, the national president in Canada, receiving a plaque in Puerto Rico, on behalf of the Oshawa Club (Outstanding Leadership Training Program). SHOULD POLICE ANTICIPATE TROUBLE ? So Chief Constable Herbert Flintoff has refused a police certificate to allow a Bond street restaurateur to apply for a Public Hall license (which would permit a Banquet license, dancing and catering in the basement of his establishment) ? This must be a difficult task for the Police -- to decide who should get such privileges. If the department is too sticky and withholds such permits without valid reasons open- ly stated, it will be subjected to as much criticism as if it handed them out indiscriminately. It is an unenviable job, bound to draw criticism. For instance, Lawyer Willes (who appeared before City Council Monday night to speak on behalf of the restaurateur's application) felt that Chief Flintoff was "unreasonable" in his stand. ('He thinks the place will become a trouble spot -- you can't anticipate trouble; if you do, no licensing for a public hall would ever be granted," he said). We don't subscribe to the theory that the Police should not anticipate trouble in such instances; but perhaps Mr. Willes thought his client was being discriminated against un- fairly because of what happened recently-in another City case. A nearby club on a main thoroughfare was granted an Eating Establishment: License (which does not permit alco- holic beverages, but does allow such things as coffey and sandwiches). The club -- sometimes referred to as "a coffey house" and featuring folk singing and jazz entertainment by combos -- is open to the public three nights weekly from 9 p.m, to 3 a.m. It is directly across the street from two un- dertaking establishments and a synagogue. City Council has referred the restaurateur's application to the all-purpose committee (under Alderman Albert V. Walker) for further study. MORE "RE-ASSESSMENT EQUALIZATION" NOTES Dear Mr. Gearin: RE: 11 Fairbanks street, City Having noticed your article in last Friday's Times with regards to comparisons of taxes and assessment for 1961 and 1962, allow me to state my increase for those years: LAND BLDG. TOTAL TAXES ASSESSMENT ASSESSMENT $550 (1961) $1560 (1961) $2100 $166.95 (1961) $1190 (1962) $5485 (1962) $6675 $241.68 (1962) The above property is one of the oldest in this City. The buildings have been up for at least 85 years and never during my time living here for 30 years has there ever been more than $100 spent on City structures -- all sewers, roads and sidewalks have been paid for for several years. I thought this might add to your collection on this new assessment, Yours truly, VATICAN CITY--Pope John made a day-long journey across Italy Thursday on a train trip that was both a pilgrimage of prayer and a whistle-stop tour unique for a modern ruler of the Roman Catholic Church. -- He returned to the Vatican in the evening ending a precedent- breaking round trip that lasted nearly 16 hours. His 400-mile pilgrimage acress the Italian boot brought out hundreds of thousands of per- sons in dozens of towns and vil- lages along the route from Rome to Ancona on the Adriatic Sea. The trip was a major depar- ture from papal tradition: No pope had ridden a train for 100 years; none had travelled so far from the Vatican since Ita- lian nationalists wrested Rome from papal rule in 1870, and no pope in modern times had shown the informality Pope John displayed Thursday.. | |JOKES WITH REPORTERS | He joked with reporters in jtwo exchanges that were the closest thing there has been to a papal press conference He also chatted with railway work- ers. | Pope John said he would do it again; and indicated he might even travel further--by air. | The 80-year-old head of the |Roman Catholic Church made |the trip to pray for the success jof his ecumenical council, open- jing a week from today at the \Vatican. First he prayed at the Shrine to the Virgin Mary at |Loreto, near Ancona on the |Adriatic. Then, on the way jback to Rome, he prayed in |Assisi at the tomb of St, Fran- cis. Strict security precautions marked the journey. Shortly before his arrival at Assisi late gthursday afternoon, some 30 "talian detectives con." major stations. his physician, editors of the Vat- ican City newspaper and two Vatican photographers. His car had a small kitchen, two bed compartments with bath and a study and salon con- taining a small throne adorned with white carnations. SAYS USUAL MASS : Pope John's day staried like any other papal day. He said mass in his private chape! at the Vatican, But from then on the day was unique for a pope. He went to the Vatican sta- tion and caught a train. No pope had ever used the Vatican station before. Pope John ap- peared as excited as a school- boy on his first railroad trip; he could hardly wait for it to begin. "Tt seems you always have to wait," he told reporters around his railroad car as he leaned from a window. Minutes later the nine - ear |special train, loaned to him by President Segni of Italy, was on its way out of the Vatican and into Italian territory. It stopped at Rome's Trasevere Station to pick up Fanfani and an elecric locomotive. | Reporters gathered again around the pope, as he stood at his window, and there was a second informal press confer- ence, ' "I especially like to travel by plane;"' the Pope said. "'You can see so much of the world in such a short time- I hope it will not be another 100 years before a pope takes this journey. I don't think it will, because I hope to travel some more my- self. I'll be seeing a lot more of you gentlemen." Then he.was off on his trip. His train stopped briefly at var- ious points along the route. Thousands of persons jammed Several times hey broke barriers to crowd ducted a close search of the Basilica of St- Francis for pos- sible bombs. SAYS 'EXTRAORDINARY' | A Basilica spokesman de- |scribed the search, sparked, in |part, by last month's finding of jan incendiary bomb in St. Pe- ter's Basilica in Rome, as "ex- traordinary." He said about 30 truckloads of police had been called up to handle the situation. All- reads leading to the tiny rail station where the Pope ar- rived were blocked by police.

The consumer price index-- yardstick of urban area living costs--declined to 131 on Sept. 1 from 131.4 a month earlier, the Dominion Bureau of Statistics reported today, Cheaper food was the main reason. The index, which is based on 1949 living costs equalling 10, was nearly two points above its mark of 129.1 on Sept. 1 last year, and had fallen back to the same level it was at the start of July. During the three months May-July it had risen by 1 3-10 points. Though food prices' led the August decline, transportation costs were lower too with price cuts on year-end 1962 car mod- els and on gasoline, tires and some auto replacement parts. HOUSING COSTS UP The cost to Canadians housing and clothing rose of in Edmonton .. 53 |death or glory this time." | August, but there was no meas- most of the remarks ernment, moistened the eyes of TORONTO (CP)--A Progres- sive Conservative member. of the Ontario legislature inter- vened in 1959 to obtain the with- drawal of prosecutions from about 30 pinball machine vper- ators, the provincial royal com- --- on crime was told Thurs y. W. C, Bowman,: director of public prosecutions, testified that following a protest from Maurice Hamilton, (Renfrew North), between 35 and 40 gam- ing house charges against store- keepers with machines were re- f\duced to four or five to serve as "warnings" to the others. It was the first time Mr. Hamil- ton's name came into the long inquiry, although there have 'been many reference to another Renfrew politician -- the late mines minister James Maloney of Renfrew South--who was al- leged to have interfered fre- quently in the administration of justice in the area: around his constituency. i As Thursday's commission ap- pearance of Liberal Leader John Wintermeyer brought poli- 'jtical flurries, it was announced that the chief witness today will be Attorney-General Kelso Rob- erts, expected to reply to alle- gations of laxity in dealing with gamblers and "'sorial" clubs. Developments Thursday _in- cluded: 1, Questioning of Mr. Winter- meyer produced a Liberal charge that commission counsel Roland F, Wilson was doing a "political hatchet job," and Mr. Wintermeye: refused to name sources for material in his leg- islature speech for last Novem- ber which precipitated the in- quiry. 2. Deputy Attorney - General W. B. Common testified that in 1957 he suspected there were in. formation leaks to criminals from the Ontario Provincial Po- lice, but had heard only rumors and suspicio2 until an anti-gam- bling squad sergeant got per- mission to conceal the name of an undercover informant from his superiors. 3. Mr. Common said he had been "astounded, disgusted and angered" when he learned in 1960--as the commission has previously heard -- that there was talk that he was getting $800 a month from gamblers, He has already denied the allega- lon: 4, The deputy said an under- icover minated when he a payoff in the attorney-gen- eral's department may have had something to do with end- ing the investigation. 5. Mr. Common took issue with earlier evidence by Tor- onto Magistrate Fred Thompson that the magistrate had been "intimidated" by Attorney-Gen- eral Roberts when he reported |that a telephone caller identify- ing himself as Mr Maloney had jexpressed concern about the outcome of a gaming case he was trying in 1959. LOSE APPEALS "During the day, two key figures in the inquiry--gamblers Joseph McDermott and Vincent Feeley--lost appeals in the On- tario Appeal Court from convic- tions on charges of obtaining po- lice information illegally. Their alleged go - between, former OPP anti-gambling squad con- stable Robert J. Wright, also lost out. The three were sentenced last March to 18 months in prison. The appeal court also set aside Wright's acquittal on a charge of bribing OPP Const. George Scott and ordered a new trial. It was the diary of Scott, writ- ten while acting as a double agent, which led to the charges and provided much of the in| formation in Mr. Wintermeyer's accusatory speech of last No- vember. : Besides the names of Mr. Maloney and Mr. Hamilton, that of a third politician--Arthur C. Jolley, former Progressive Con- servative MLA for Niagara Falls--cropped up in Thursday's commission evidence. _ Mr. Bowman said Mr. Jolley once telephoned him because a investigation of OPP leakage already had been ter- learned of this, answering suggestions that and wanted it returned. He did not elaborate, Mr. Jolley previously has de- nied recollection of telephone calls from a number used by McDermott and Feeley> to hi: Niagara Falls home, Mr, Bowman -said that MLA Hamilton, while charges were pending in the Pembroke area pinball cases, telephoned him that he considered it "unfait'"' that machines which had been operating five or six years with- out being considered illegal should have been the object' of a crackdown. Crown Attorney Graham Walsh had reported the OPP agreed with his own view that one charge in each court of Ren- frew County would be enough, and this was followed out. The machines disappeared. In another section of Mr. Bow. man's testimony, he said he hed no recollection of two calls hav- ing been made to this home from the McDermott - Feeley number, as shown in telephone company records. "My recollection is that I've never spoken to either one," he said. SUSPICIOUS JELLED Mr. Common told the com- mission that his suspicions of leakages in the OPP. anti-gam- bling squad had jelled in 1957 when Sgt. Jack Hatch, trying to close down the busy Roseland ~ Gambling Club near. Windsor, obtained and got permission to discontinue report to headquar- ters on his activities and to keep to himself the name of an in- formant he was planting in the club. He said he instructed Hatch . not to give the name to anyone, including himself and OPP Commissioner W. H. Clark. "I was suspicious myself that there were leaks around there somewhere," the deputy said. "I was not surprised when Sgt ° Hatch made the request. Discussing Mr. Maloney, he said the late minister never had ' approached him in connection with gambling or clubs but * would not deny that he might have told Magistrate Thompson ~ --as that official testified--that Mr. Common had said Mr. Ma- 4 loney had "been in the denart-~ ment's hair for some time."
