THE OSHAWA TIMES, Thursdey, February 28, 1963 GO By JACK GEARIN OD EVENING Manitoba Opens Session Of House OSHAWA C OF C PASSES MILESTONE = A healthy and active Chamber of Commerce is more dhan a municipal blessing. y * Jt is also the trademark of growing end pvrosperious cities on the North American scene today. * The importance of the Chamber as a_ potential force designed primarily to promote the civic, economic and social welfare of the people can not be over- emphasized. , | 'This is especially so at a time like this when Gordon W, Riehl, retiring president lof the 519-member Oshawa 'C of C, reports "a year of outstanding progress for your community Chamber," ' It is noticeable from Mr. Riehl's remarks that the Chamber is toying with the idea of changing its name to the Board of Trade. "Certain groups feel that the Oshawa Chamber is syn- onymous with the Canadian Chamber of Commerce,"' ex- plained Mr, Riehl, "and that any stands taken by the Ca- nadian organization are auto- matically ours. This is not so. : The Oshawa Chamber is independent and, of late, certain policies outlined by the Canadian Chamber have not our en- dorsation." What Mr. Riehl was saying was that the local group often paid for the sins of the national group, which is true. The Oshawa Chamber, like all man-made organiaztions, is not without its faults and shortcomings, but these are mini- mized greatly when 'placed alongside the organization's list of achievements. The Chamber's local image has sometimes been blurred 'by people who deliberately refuse to attend its open-door meetings for fear that they would learn something about its true purpose. This City is better off for the existence of the Chamber-- if the C of C failed to achieve all of its lofty goals in 1962, it wasn't for lack of endeavor, good citizenship, planning. The Chamber does fence-sit sometimes on important is- sues, but more often than not it jumps into the battle, regard- less of where the chips may fall. All in all, it has a pretty fair batting average, despite some carping and criticism from people who pretend to regard it as some kind of sub- versive group constituted for the sole purpose of glorifying "selfish little business men". Such criticism is shallow, not based on fact. The Chamber's history dates back to the late 1920's and it is interesting to note that it reached an all-time peak for activity in 1962, while also establishing a new membership record. The Chamber does not pretend that the King street CNR tracks muddle was settled through its efforts alone, but it did play an important role in this municipal drama, as did the Oshawa and District Labor Council and the Oshawa Busi- nessmen's Association, all of whom combined their efforts to push for the successful conclusion of an important project. It was encouraging to hear that the Chamber -- under in- coming president Charles World -- will have more funds in 1963 with which to complete some of its proposed projects. Here's hoping that the Chamber continues to grow in 1963. GORDON RIEHL JUDY LAMARSH TOP POLITICIAN Did you know that Miss Judy LaMarsh -- guest speaker at tonight's Liberal nomination meet in Whitby -- was adopt- ed by the Mohawk Tribe of the Six Nations Confederacy in 1961 and received the name Ya-go-da-dia-se -- 'She speaks for others." She has become one of Canada's best known politi- - ticlans since her election to the House of Commons in > 1960 lawyer, linguist, * speaker and career woman, she has held the ear of the public, press and, she hopes, » Prime Minister -- for she has been one of his most out- spoken critics. Her father, the late W. C. LaMarsh, QC, was campaign manager for the Jate William. Houck, for many years Liber- al member of Parliament for Niagara Falls. The 39-year-old Osgoode Hall Law School grad was the only woman delegate to the first conference of NATO youth leaders in Paris in 1958. At that time she was also solicitor for Stamford Township. : She is a former president of the Ontario Women's Liberal Association and of the Ontario Association and of the Ontario Association of Rural-Urban Municipalities. She decided to run in a bye-election to fill her hometown seat of Niagara Falls vacated by the death of Mr, Houck. In a stiffly-contested three-way battle, she came home the winner in 1960 with a majority of more than 5,000. TOASTMASTERS NEED NEW MEMBERS The Oshawa Toastmasters Club -- founded June 22, 1957 -- is still carrying on, but they need a membership drive. The Toastmasters are an organized group over 21, who seek to increase their self-confidence through improving their speak- ing ability -- the club is primarily designed for the mature mind. The organization was founded in Santa Ana, California by Ralph C. Smedley. Incorporated in 1932 as a nonprofit corporation, the movement has grown until now there are clubs chartered in every state of the U.S, and in other countries, including Canada. More than 500,000 have benefitted from membership. The toastmaster undergoes a stiff course in public speak- ing. He is called upon at unexpected moments for public speeches, frequently on subjects with which he is not too well acquainted. Doug Clark of RR/No, 2, Oshawa, is president of the Osh- awa Club. Jan Drygala is vice-president (in charge of mem- bership). Terence V, Kelly is a Toastmaster grad as is Ron- ald F. D. Wilson, a former club president.

R. Duffis. REJECTS REQUEST Quebec--Premier Lesage said he is "'not ready to stuff the law with exceptions" as he re- jected a request from the Que. bec Forest Industries Associa. tion that wood products be ex- cluded from application of a proposed farm marketing act. He told a legislative commit- tee studying changes in the act that the forest industries have not been harmed by current legislation and "the province has no interest in killing the and the board are going to do their worst."

(CP)-- Eric Kierans, president of the Montreal Stock Exchange, says Social Credit promoters do not understand the 'disaster they can bring to Canada." "TI fear this movement," Mr. Kierans said, "not because it has anything te offer to the People of Quebec, as they will soon realize, but because I 'ear they will be induced to follow and decision must be towards the resurgence \and eco- nomic expansion of our terri- tory. "Promises of something for nothing will not bring work to our people--they never have and never will." Mr. Kierans spoke Wednesday night at a meeting of the Riche- lieu Service Club of Saguenay jand Lake St. Johr districts. His address was issued to the press before delivery.
