L, Wilson, Publisher THURSDAY, JANUARY 31, 1963 -- PAGE 6 French President Wins But Victory Is Hollow President de Gaulle of France has suceeeded, for the present at least, in blocking Britain's entry into the European Common Market. The victory may swell his already monu- mental ego, but he has won it at the cost of his own dream of ¢ French- dominated Europe. And in winning it, he may have dealt the European Economic Community a mortal blow. Under the Treaty of Rome, an application for full membership in the Common Market must have the unanimous approval of the six charter members. Five of the six clearly wanted Britain in their or- ganization, for political as well as economic reasons, and saw no great obstacle to Britain's entry; Britain was just as clearly willing to make substantial concessions to obtain entry. But de Gaulle, fearful of Britain as a counter-balance to the authority of France and deeply sus- picious of Britain's ties with the United States, said no. Now the Market faces a first- class crisis. The Italians have spoken out bitterly against the re- cently signed treaty between France and West Germany. The Dutch par- liament has indicated that it will veto the entry into the Market of French-sponsored Algeria. The Bel-' gians say they would be just as happy if Britain replaced France as the Market's sixth member. What happens now is anybody's guess. There will undoutedly be some quiet attempts to make de Gaulle change his mind, but he is an inflexible man and there can be little hope of success for these at- tempts. The strains set up by de Gaulle may prove too strong for the Market structure, and it may fall apart. Or it may survive as an inward-looking trade bloc, with its political aspirations dimmed. In the meantime, Britain cannot wait, cap in hand, while the Market members pursue their argument, It is not inconceivable that Brit- ain, the United States, the Com- monwealth and the Scandinavian countries might work out a trade agreement, possibly on an Atlantic Community basis. There are power shifts under way that might make such an alliance not only feasible but dynamic. Questions About Files The auditor-general in his annual report complained, quite properly, that the department of national re- venue had refused to permit him to examine three files which he re- quested for technical purposes. Since then the mystery has deepened. This week the deputy minister of national revenue told the Commons public accounts committee that the income tax files withheld from the auditor-general contained "personal and confidential" correspondence by former revenue minister Nowlan. He said this was one factor in his department's refusal -- later back- ed up by Mr. Nowlan's instructions -- to let the files be examined. He said also that Mr. Nowlan, now finance minister, "'seemed concerned that the auditor-general should see this correspondence." The Commons committee was also told that the three cases were the only ones in 16 years where access to tax files had been refused to the audit inspectors. The whole affair has a nasty odor. Mr. Nowlan told reporters last week that some of the files involved those of members of Parliament. This week, at the committee hear- ing, chairman Alan Macnaughton (liberal, Montreal Mount Royal) ruled out a direct question by Reid Scott (NDP, Toronto Danforth) as to whether the three cases involved MPs. Mr. Macnaughton said the question could be put to Nowlan when he attended a later committee meeting. Mr. Scott quite rightly protested that Mr. Nowlan's state- ment to reporters put all MPs "under a cloud". The refusal to permit the auditors to view just three files is bound to create suspicion. It also weakens the position of the auditor-general, and suggests 'that he and his assis- tants cannot keep their counsel and lack good judgment. The suspicion is bound to deepen with the revela- tion that a cabinet minister had attached "'personal and confidential" correspondence to the files. Mr. Nowlan should clear the air. Death Of Great Poet Robert Frost, truly one of the great poets of our time, lived a full and long life, and his death was not unexpected. But when death came, early Tuesday, there was a sorrowful occasion; a clear, vigorous and beautiful voice had been stilled, and as a result there was a little less illumination in the world. He wrote of simple things, in a deceptively simple fashion and often with a gusty humor. When he was asked about the nuclear threat to human existence he said, typically, . "We are inexterminable, like flies and bedbugs." His good friend Mark Van Doren, also a poet (among other things) has written perhaps the most loving and understanding tribute to Robert Frost. Van Doren wrote: "He was a philosophical poet, which meant in his case that to a The Ostharoa Times T. L. WILSON, Publisher C..

"If life has a single meaning he would have given everything to find it. But probably there are several, or so he seemed to say, in a voice that was both utterly serious and utterly humorous, "The humor of Robert Frost was the unmistakable sign of his serio.s- ness: Of his stubborn and lovable devotion to truth as it variously states itself. He listened intently to the contradictions of existence, and rendered them in verse that we must keep on reading before we can be sure we have exhausted its tes- timony. It is perfectly lucid, as life is, but like life it is ambiguous too. .. "In his' lyrics, in his narratives and in his metaphysical dramas of Job and Jonah, Robert Frost pro- duced over something like 70 years a body of poetry which has no equi- valent in the literature of the United States or of the world. "For 50 years he has been a familiar figure among his own people: Loved, respected and even a little feared. Time the sculptor will keep on working at this figure, as truth will keep on echoing this voice.

McINTYRE HOOD Special London (Eng.) Correspondent For The Oshawa Times LONDON -- Educational au- thorities are convinced that young Britons should become more proficient in the speaking of European languages, particu- larly French, German and Rus- sian. Sir Edward Boyle, minis- ter of education, is in the midst of drafting plans for drastic im. provements in the teaching of languages, and particularly modern languages, in the schools of the country. His plans are likely to be far- reaching, and should be of in- terest to educational authorities in Canada, where bi-lingualism is rapidly taking on greater im- YOUR HEALTH Queries On Hair Hard To Answer By JOSEPH G. MOLNER, M.D. Dear Dr. Molner: A terrible thing is happening to' my family and it is making @ nervous wreck of me. My sor who is not yet 18 is almost completely BALD, My daughter's hair is falling out. I am 40 and my forehead is receding. My children are heavy but do not eat proper foods. They are also extremely nervous and sen- sitive, Could this have anything to do with the problem?--Mrs. AM, Habitually I wince when ques- tions about thinning hair come up, because there are but a li- mited few suggestions I can of- fer, There isn't any sure-fire pan- acea--which, or course, is why new gimmicks are constantly being offered, and the hopeful thin-toppers keep trying them, and then discarding them when they don't work, and shelling out their money for the next one that comes along. Almost all of the known causes of thinning hair are, or may be represented in today's letter. Heredity is always first. It is not uncommon for a_ certain number of boys of 18 te start losing hair, There is no known answer except to be philosophi- cal about the problem. Some skin condition (seborr- heic dermatitis being the most frequent) can do the mischief. This can be corrected, but only by having a specific diagnosis by a skin specialist) and then treatment. Nor should it be de- layed; the damage cannot be undone if allowed to continue too long. Faulty nutrition can cause TODAY IN HISTORY By THE CANADIAN PRESS fan. 31, 193... James Gladstone, an Al- berta Blood Reserve Indian, became Canada's first In- dian senator five years 3g0 today--in 1958. A farmer and cattleman, Senator Gladstone was president »f the Indian Association from 1948 to 1954. He is known, in his native Blackfoot tongue as Akay-Na-Muka or Many Guns. Sen. Gladstone, now 75, has devoted much of his life to the betterment of Canada's Indians and several times prior to his appointment travelled to Ot- tawa to fight for the rights of his people. 1942--The Japanese com- pleted the conquest of the Malay Peninsula in the Second World War 1953 -- The seagoing ferry Princess Victoria sank off Northern Ireland with 132 lives lost. wg, and loss of the hair's naturally glossy appearance, One can be overweight and yet a victim of malnutrition because of not eating the right food. Be- cause of this, many people jump to the conclusion that taking vi- tamins will restore the hair to its former state. Unhappily this does not appear in practice to be so. But substituting a good diet can make a difference in malnutrition cases. , Anxiety can be a factor, In a family such as today's, some hard-headed atiention to learn- ing not to be too sensitive and nervous would undoubtedly pay dividends in more than the hair. A glandular defect, particu- larly of the thyroid gland, some- times is found to be a cause of thinning hair. Since this may also have a relationship to being overweight, it might well merit some investigation. Dear Dr. Molner: Is hem- orrhaging always fatal in tuber- culosis? Have some patients died of the disease without ever having hemorrhaged? Is it pos- sible to be cured and still hem- orrhage?--H.S, No to the first, yes to the sec- ond, And as to the third, if the TB is cured I would not expect hemorrhage, but remember that the lungs may be badly scarred, or some other condition may be present, so the answer must be that "it is possible." portance. Among some of the proposals which are being con- sidered are the following. Tt is proposed to start teach- ing French, German and other modern languages long before the age of 11, and to make them on regular subjects in the element- ary schools. It is suggested that increasing use be made of the aural method by which children can learn to speak foreign languages fwently within six months from the sounds alone. Grammar and spelling of the foreign languages will come later. NEED FOR RUSSIAN As the result of an urgent recommendation by a govern ment committee, the plan in- chiles a significant expansion of the teaching of Russian, To move in this direction, Sir Ed- ward Boyle is trying to secure the approval of the cabinet for the additional expenditure re quired to recruit enough quali- fied tedchers and acquire more text books on Russian. Space age Britain, the minister of edu- cation believes, must have more fluent speakers of Russian, if only to keep up with the scien- tific progress being made by the Soviet Union. Sir Edward, in putting for- ward his language proposals, will tell the House of ons of the work of a study group he has put to work to modernize the content and balance of the school-teaching programs, FOUNDATION HELPS This group is working closely with the Nuffield Foundation on ways to improve the teaching of mathematics, science and mod- ern languages, A pamphlet based on its re- searches is now being prepared for publication by the ministry of education. It will give guid- ance to teachers and local edu- cation authorities about examin- ation papers for a new second- ary certificate of education, This certificate will be awarded to 186-yearolds who are not quite up to the General Certifi- cate of Education '0' level, = who pass the new examina- The study group is also work- ing on proposals to have mathe- matics -- and not just arith- metic -- taught at an earlier stage than is done at the pres- ent time. In its study, close at- tention is being paid to the views of school inspectors, headmasters and local educa- tion committees.

Jean-Jacques Martel, 36-year- old Amos, Que, insurance broker and MP for Chapleau Twice-A-Day Reporting -- On Upper Atmosphere By JOHN E. BIRD OTTAWA (CP)--Every year nearly $1,000,000 in federal tax money goes into thin air--but it's all for a good cause. The hefty expenditure is in- curred by the meteorological branch of the transport depart- ment in "sounding" the atmos- phere for weather information. Twice a day--at noon and midnight -- radiosonde instru- ments are sent up through the atmosphere from more than 30 upper-air stations across Can- ada, They are carried aloft by large hydrogen - filled rubber balloons from which they are suspended by a length of cord. The balloons carrying radio- eondes rise through the atmos- phere at about 1,000 feet a min- ute and expand as they rise un- til they reach the limit of their strength, at a diameter of some 20 feet, and burst. This usually occurs between, 80,000 and 100,- 000 feet. The radiosonde has sensing elements which measure the pressure, temperature and hu- OTTAWA REPORT . Surge Of History Hits Great Divide By PATRICK NICHOLSON OTTAWA -- The powerful surge of history in the making has swept Canada along to one of the great divides. Ottawa is anxiously waiting to see whether the philosophical inter- itics propounded by France's resident de Gaulle will carry the day. Or will the western workd settle for the U.S,.'s more materialistic "Operation Dumb- bell', whereby President Ken- nedy hopes to expand the mar- ket for all the gadgets and wid- gets made in U.S.A.? By misapplying their skills to perfect weapons which ensure that, in any future war, all man- kind will be cremated equal, scientists have outmoded the smail sovereign nation, Winston Churchill proclaimed this when, speaking at Fulton, Missouri, in 1946, he advocated "peace through strength," based -on "the fraternal association of the English-speaking peoples." Be- hind that concept lay his dream of a Europe grown astrong through unity. Ia that union, Britain would play. a leading role and, as the golden hinge of the Atlantic, swing Europe and the Americas into a partnership of equals. Canada became the leading proponent of this Churchillian super-state, which quickly took shape on the Canadian plan as the North Atlantic Treaty Or- ganization, And Canada's Mike Pearson, urged that to endure this as- sociation should be built on foundations more lasting than common fear in the face of a common military threat; it must be not only a military al- liance, but an economic and even a political partnership he urged, and all agreed. But Canada and her big neighbor dragged their feet so long that ultimately Western Europe decided to adapt among themselves this grand Canadian proposal. Thus the European Economic Community was born. Macmillan saw Britain's en- try into Europe as a necessary step on the path towards tte creation of an Atlantic com- munity. President Kennedy shares the vision of this alignment of the West, but he has missed the important bonds implicit in Mr. Pearson's complete common-. wealth. 'We don't plan to asso- ciate ourselves with the Euro- pean community," said Ken- nedy last week. "We plan 0 negotiate with them to provide for thé admission of American g " De Gaulle considers this ma- terialistic. objective inadequate and contemptible. And he ques- tions the reliability of an un- bonded friend who has twice cringed .at the crunch of war. Instead he seeks an alignment dictated by history and tailored to the future: one Europe stretching from the Atlantic to the Urais, This would involve reconciliation with today's chief foe. But, he reasons, Russia is primarily European and only secondarily Communist, Pres- sures from the Far East will force Russia back to her Euro- pean friendships, fongetting her crusading communism. pit Ps In contrast, Kennedy's plan is seen by de Gaulle as be.ng based on a permanent division of Europe along the Berlin Wall. So he rejects the U.S. target of a transatlantic partnership as a loosely-knit trading bloc. This is why he seeks to exclude Brit- ain from his Europe, because in his view Britain has a special relationship with the U.S., and would prove to be the Trojan Horse whereby American poli- cies could be insinuated into Europe. Atlantic Union and Pan-Eu- the rope may be equally sincere projects to preserve peace ia the world. We are witnessing the tug of war between them. The outcome is seen here as dictating the future of Canada more certainly than any drama on Parliament Hill, midity of the air as it ascends. A small radio transmitter re lays the information continu- ously to ground stations. ABANDON INSTRUMENTS The radiosondes -- some 2,- 000 a year--fall back to after the balloons burst. How- ever, no attempt is made to re- cover the instruments which are sent aloft at a cost of $35 aplece. An effort was made at one time to recover them, but the cost of repair and recalibration was too high. They also are dif- ficult to recover since they mey drift a long way during ascent. Some of them have been found several hundred miles from the point where were released into the at ere. At one time the 2!4-pound ra- diosondes were allowed to fall to earth unimpeded, be eg the speed of descent, were introduced after one ra diosonde plunged to earth in the hood of an automobile.

QUEEN'S PARK Pros Enjoy Boob By Brains Trust By DON O'HEARN TORONTO -- The day after "Tory Night in Metro" there was an old-time PC in the mem- bers' dining room. And he was wearing a wide, wide grin. Put an apple in his mouth and you could have served him as a suckling pig--oversized. He was happy. The brains trust had boobed again. A release out of PC headquar- ters on Jan, 17 said: "Thousands of Metro Toronto residents will take part in a mammoth political rally sched- uled for Wednesday Jan. 23," It didn't tura out that way on Jan. 23. Thousands of Metro Toron' residents stayed home with their books or watching the hockey game. Less than 2,000 turned out for the 19 riding meetings of Tory Night in Metro. TRUST DISLIKED The PC brains trust these days is dominated by advertis- ing men--as has been mentioned with varying degrees of cynic- ism here before. The trusters are bright and aggressive, youngish men, with the extreme self-confidence of the successful bean-seller, The old party pros can't stand m. They look on them as kids kids playing with a meccano set. And they resent the fact the party has been given to them as a play-thing. And of .course they don't agree at all with the way things are being done. TORY TACTICS " No old pro would have han- dled the Metro Tory night the way it was. .
