2 'THE OSHAWA Times, Mondey, October 29, 1962 GOOD EVENING By JACK GEARIN GM'S 25-YEAR-CLUB ENTERTAINED General Motors' 25-year-club banquet at the Royal York' Hotel in Toronto Saturday night was a gala affair, one long to be remembered by the participants. Two of the honored guests were Reg, Fair and Walter J. Manning, both of Oshawa, who have a combined total of years served of 52 -- to mark this important occasion they each will have the choice of a pair of cuff-links, tie-pin or tie-chain (each containing a haif-karat diamond). It seemed fitting for the occasion that an Oshawa act should present the highlight of the entertainment part of the program, This was the Taylor Twins, the dancing sons of Mr. and Mrs, An- drew Borchik of 762 Palace street, They displayed some of the super-class that drew rave notices from the Tor- onto critics during their re- cent appearance at the O'Keefe's Centre. The Twins recently performed at Purdue University, Indiana, on a pro- gram with Ford and Hines, the famous comedy team, and Gordon McRae, the singer. TAYLOR TWINS LES ROWNTREE A REAL "OLD PRO" So the Hon. Leslie Rowntree has been transferred from Highways to the key department of Labor as minister in the Provincial field? Many local citizens who saw him perfom at a Federal! political rally in St. Gregory's Auditorium last June know one thing -- he is a cool performer when the © heat is on (from hecklers, > etc.), a real political pro who can change an adverse situation to his advantage with a few well-chosen words. We wish him well . Herb Geist, the 21-year-old Invictus A.C. junior foot- baller seriously injured in a 'game here last August 28 against the Oshawa Hawk- f eyes, is showing '"remark- ' able recovery', according to . his mother, He has been LES ROWNTREE transferred from the New Mount Sinia Hospital to Baycrest, a rehabilitation centre where he receives special physiotherapy treatment. He broke a leg in the game and lapsed into a coma, He was spechless for more than six weeks. He is able to mumble a few words now. His brain was damaged, doctors say. LITTLE NOTES FROM HERE AND THERE Thomas Fairbrother, Jr., of 590 Rosmere, has been ap- pointed as an Education Assistant at the home office of the Canada Life Assurance Company in Toronto. He has been in the Os! district of | térborough branch where he was an executive of the Liie Underwriters Association. Mr. Fairbrother, son of Mr. and Mrs. Thomas Fairbrother, Sr., of Newcastle, will continue to reside here. . . Fans are staying away in droves from the Junior A hockey games in Peterborough thus far, but the season is still young. The club took a big financial tuinble at the gate last season, but three years ago tickets were at a premium. 'CARDIFF LORD MAYOR WRITES MAYOR THOMAS Mayor Christine Thomas has received the following letter from the Rt, Hon. The Lord Mayor of Cardiff (Alder- man C. A. Bence, J.P., M.R.C.S., L.R.C.P., S.St.J.): Your Worship: I am writing to acklowledge your letter of the 24th. Sep- tember, which was handed to me by Li t-Colonel James R. Warnica of the Ontario Reiment, during the course of his visit to Wales and the City of Cardiff. I am very pleased, indeed, to be able to meet Colonel Warnica and we had a most interesting chat about Canada and the Ontario Regiment. _ 1 certainly remember your visit to our City last sum- mer, and was pleased to learn how much you and your husband enjoyed jt.

Speak- ing at Paspebiac Saturday night, he said enough pressure could be put on the Liberal gov- ernment to widen the scope of the hospital insurance program into a system of state medicine: He said he is opposed to state medicine. However, such a *'so- cialist" move could be pre- vented by changes in the hospi- tal insurance plan to provide payment of doctors' fees for those in need, Meanwhile, campaigning at the other end of the province-- lin northwestern Quebec -- Mr, |Lesage said at La Sarre Sun- day that a change of govern-| |ment would amount to replacing) |'a policy of social justice by }one' of discrimination." | The Libera government, in power since June, '1960, after 16 \years of Union Nationale gov- jernment, had wrought big Lesage Program Said 'Crackpot "All Quebecers, even those who will not admit it, are proud of the province now," said Mr. Lesage. Elaborating on his socialism theme, Mr. Johnson said that this is not the time for "crack- pot theories" which are not ac- ceptable to Quebec's population. The province's problems plan 'to expropriate Quebec's 11 private power companies, Mr. Lesage said in Val d'Or Sunday night "it is not the beginning of the nationalization of other industries. TALKS OF TELEPHONE Meanwhile, in Jacques-Car- tier, a suburb of Montreal, Re- sources Minister Rene Levesque said expropriation of the Que- bec facilities of the Bell Tele- phone Company of Canada is "possible," but added that it is not on the government's list of priorities. In three or four years, after the power take-over, the estab- lishment of a steel complex, and wider financial investment by Quebecers in processing indus: tries "then perhaps we will be able to think about the telephone for our children," he said.

His Civic Party captured 41 of 45 council seats in the new streamlined council, Voters also gave strong support to the Dra- peau administration's referen- dums, calling for a four, ins'ead of three, year mandate and the establishment of identification cars for municipal voters to cut down 'fraudulent voting. Despite Montreal's first snow: storm of the season which clog- ged traffic, 42.4 per cent of the electorate went to the polls, an improvement of move than one per cent over the turnout in 1960.

Wirephoto) | | U.S. Voters Look To Local By CARMAN CUMMING NEW YORK (CP)--With the U.S. 'off - year" congressional elections just around the corner, no single domestic issue seems to have captured the fancy of either candidates or voters. Before the Cuban crisis pushed domestic troubles into the background, most cam- paigns for thé Nov. 6 voting ap- peared to revolve around local rather than national issues. In the middle west, the peren- nial debate on farm surpluses and controls held sway. In the south, integration popped up. In northern industrial areas, un- employment and the health of the economy were big talking points, One common thread running through the campaign s the record of the Kennedy admin- istration in its first two years in office. The president -- who --made this a national issue himself by repeatedly urging election of a Congress that would give strongér support to |his programs. Former president Eisenhower, pointing to Democratic majori- ties in both Houses of Congress, asked:- 'What does he want-- one-party rule?" PROJECTS FRUSTRATED Kennedy, spelling out pet projects frustrated by "obstruc- tionists" in the last Congress, says the election "presents the American people with a very clear choice, between the Re- publican party, which is op- posed to all.these measures. . and the Democratic party .. . which supports these meas- ures." Republicans shoot back that their "obstructionism" actually is prudent restraint of a spend- thrift administration; a curb on fiscal irresponsibility; a brake on the downward slide toward the welfare state. For a time Kennedy's pro- gram for medical care for the aged looked to be prime cam- paign fodder. But the "attack has been blunted by a "me too" defence from the would-be victims.

Does it affect his decisions on spending and sav- ing? These are among the ques- tions the royal commission on banking and finance hopes to answer in one of the most ex- haustive surveys of its kind ever made anywhere. Working with the bureau of statistics, the commission will fire about 77 pages of questions to breadwinners in 1,200 house- holds in cities across Canada. The sample is considered large enough to get a picture of con- sumers generally. ASK ABOUT FINANCING Not only does it want to know how the ordinary individual is affected by monetary. condi- tions, the commission seeks to find out as much as it can about what people -do with _ their money, and why. How much do you save? Do you-do it systematically? Where do you keep your savings? Why do you keep them that way? Are interest rates a factor? And, just as important, why do you save at all? Do you own stocks and bonds? Sought On Tight Money Which ones? Why those rather than others? Did you buy them with cash or on credit? Have you got money tied up in real estate? If so, how do you re- gard that as an investment? Did mortgage interest rates matter to you when you bought your house? If you financed the purchase of a car, did you shop around for the best credit terms? How did. you purchase your refrigerator, stove, furni- ture? What about a summer cottage? The answers. to these ques- tions and many others will be put together and analysed by the commission's research staff in Toronto, headed by Prof, Wil> liam C. Hood of the University of Toronto. REPORT NEXT YEAR No decision has yet been made on whether the survey re- sults will be published along with the commission's main re- port, due to be in the govérne ment's hands next September-- in time for Parliament's 1964 decennial revision of the bank- ing laws. Meanwhile, about 25 commis. sion researchers are working on an equal number of réports dealing with various phases of financial activity in Canada and the institutions that take part in it. For example, special reports are being written on co-opéra- tives, trust companies, insur- ance companies and banks, COMING EVENTS BINGO, Eastview Park, Tuesday ,2 p.m. prizes.
