She Oshaton Cimes Published by Canadian Newspapers Limited . 86 King St. E., Oshawa, Ontario T. L, Wilson, Publisher WEDNESDAY, MARCH 27, 1963 -- PAGE 6 Co-Ordination Of Aid 'Wise Policy For West Some Canadian politicians have thade peevish replies to an Amer- fean charge that Canada is not providing enough foreign aid. The 'fact is, of course, Canada was only 'one of the western nations men- 'tioned in the report of a special committee established by President Kennedy to study the U.S. foreign aid program. . The report suggests, quite pro- perly, that other western nations should be doing more to help the United States carry the load of aid to underdeveloped countries. Only France, it noted, was giving aid on the same comparative scale as the United States; the committee mem- bers -- or rather, nine of the 10 on the committee -- thought the U.S. is carrying too big a burden, Italy should be persuaded to open its budget, Canada and Britain should increase their volume, and * Britain, West Germany, France and Japan should ease their aid terms. If campaigning politicians were not so sensitive to the possibilities of picking up a few votes by judi- cious flag-waving (and what flag?), Law Needs The Roach Commission's report on crime in Ontario notes the ex- tent of illegal gambling through bookmakers in Ontario, and sug- gests that this activity could be dubstantially reduced if penalties imposed on the small-time collectors of bets were increased. We are not so optimistic as Mr. Justice Roach. We believe itis the law not the penalty that must be amended. Laws in a democracy depend for their effectiveness on the degree to which they are accepted by the citi- zens. If most citizens ignore a par- ticular law, that law cannot be en- forced and any law which cannot be enforced becomes a bad law, be- cause it tends to bring the whole body of law into disrepute. Our gambling laws are bad laws on two counts: They cannot be effectively enforced, and they lack the logic which one expects of law. Just a few days ago a man was arrested in Toronto because he had Irish Sweepstake slips and collec- they would undoubtedly admit that the U.S. committee's report is quite a fair summary of the general situation. If there is any criticism, it is that the report lays tog much stress on volume of aid, even though 'it admits that a vast.amount of the aid given by the United States has been wasted; also that: too little attention is given by fundamental reasons for providing the aid. It is probably worse to waste money on foreign aid than not to give it in the first place, because it robs the people of the "have" nation while breeding cynicism and resentment in the "have not" nation. Instead of quibbling about what should or should not be done, how- ever, the western nations should get together to co-ordinate policy and form an executive body to translate the policy into co-ordinated action. If that were done, the Amer- icans could find that they could save a lot more than the $500 mil- lion suggested by the President's special committee. Amendment tions. Yet all across Canada the tens of thousands of Canadians who buy Irish Sweep tickets include judges, magistrates and policemen; and names and pictures of winners ap- pear in all the newspapers. Very soon now, the Ontario racing season will open, and citizens will be able to go to the tracks and bet to their hearts' content. It will all be legal. But once outside the sacred confines of the racetrack, similar betting is illegal. The simple differ- ence, under the law, is the existence of a barrier one must pass to get into a betting area and a machine which sets odds and records the take -- out of which our govern- ment takes a handsome slice. The law itself is contrary, and most people recognize it as such. They simply do not regard the buy- ing of a sweepstake ticket or the placing of a two-dollar bet as a crime. It is this fact that the legis- lators must face. High Altitude Testing Britain is reported to have asked the United States to consult with her allies before conducting any more high altitude nuclear test ex- plosions. It's a reasonable request. Last summer's high altitude test has demonstrated how much the experts did not and do not know about the effects of such a blast. Before last summer's test, as- tronomers and physicists all over the world protested against it. They pointed out that the results could not be calculated, and could very well put serious obstacles in the way of other space research. The test was officially justified as U.S. mili- tary necessity, and the protests were dismissed with assurances that pre-shot studies indicated the arti- ficial radiation belt would not be long lasting. It has now been de- monstrated that those who gave the assurance did not know what they were talking about. . Dr. James A. Van Allen, dis- The Oshawn Fines T. L. WILSON, Publisher C.

He insisted that the artificial belt would be largely gone by next sum- mer and would be undetectable any- where after a few years. But recent- ly he had to admit to a scientific conference that he now expects the artificial belt to persist for at least a decade, He admits, too, that it will be difficult to study some natural characteristics of the inner radiation belt for years to come. The test and its aftermath de- monstrates that there is too much general ignorance about the results of high altitude explosions to give any assurances. It would not matter if the tests affected the environ- ment of only the United States. Unfortunately, they affect the en- vironment of earth and of all the people on earth. And no one nation has the right to make its own decision on a matter that may change life for everyone. Bible Thought John answered and said, A man can receive nothing, except it be given him from heaven. -- John 3:27. What assets do we have that we can claim complete credit for? Then do we have any reason to be proud? He that hath my commandments and keepeth them, he it is that loveth me. -- John 14:21. Obedience to those who have the rule over us is the first evidence of love. And love makes it easy to obey. THE PIED PIPER READERS' VIEWS TRIP FOR COMMIES Dear Sir: I love this great land of Can- ada, but love of Canada means that we must be prepared to fight any, and all factions that would try to destroy our way of life. I often wonder how many. of our Canadian Communists own their own homes and cars, how much they have in the bank. I also wonder what goes on in their minds when they travel from city to city without a police permit or visa. What are their reactions when they pick up a newspaper and read that an East Berliner is shot as he climbs over the wall to the capitalistic side. How many of our Communist sympathizers have actually lived under the red banner? A good idea would be to give our 'icomrades" a free berth on a ship with instructions to come back to Canada in five years' time. They would be able to go to any Communist country of their choice. How many would come back as hardened Com; munists? ERIC LAW Leskard ATTACK ON STARR Dear Sir: On March 8, 1963, Mike Starr stated at his Simcoe meeting that the Liberal Party had lust for power and they were like cornered rats. Why is Mike Starr running? I could not call him 'Honor- able" after that statement. Web- ster's Dictionary states that a rat is a sneaky person, one who betrays or deserts his asso- ciates, Of course, that could not happen to Conservative Party. He also stated that Miss La- Marsh was not a lady in the House of Commons, another fine statement for a person of high social standing. On March 15, 1962, Starr said that CLC's Jodoin had no busi- ness criticizing us about unem- ployment. Who has a better right than Labor? ,. . Starr addressed Carpenter and Joiners Union in Washing- ton and he said, 'People are more important than money and Diefenbaker would provide jobs for every single Canadian who wants to work'. You used to run an article in your paper, Mike Starr reports from Ottawa, but since Con- Servatives came to power what has happened to Starr, is he looking for a guide to find his way out of the woods? There is no unemployment fory him because he has a job. When is he going to realize that there are 545,000 out of employ- ment? ... . Sen. O'Leary said in Oshawa in last campaign, "Doom and gloom Canadian dollars fright- ening housewives, cost of living would soar,' What's his job in the Senate, star gazing? To keep up a home perhaps Mrs. O'Leary has informed him that the cost of living has gone up February 1, 1963. If he lives in Toronto the index is 133.8. McCutcheon states, if you don't like us leave. This is your financial expert to Diefen- baker. Did he receive his train- ing in Russia? We have barren lands but no Siberia. A lot of us are too old to travel, we went through this in the 30's, I hope the people of Canada do something to correct this situa- tion, it appears that the Con- servatives have 'not the know how. External Affairs Minister Green claims that Canadians are a bunch of weepers. The only ones doing the weeping are out of his own party or the ones who voted for them, They want- ed a change and they gotit... How nonsensical can a government minister get about citizens of the U.S.A. attending his-meeting? The Liberal motto is 'All Are Welcome", whether you vote for the party or not. This is one way of showing our hospitality to visitors of any land. Did not Mr. Roosevelt State on Canadian soil that if Canada was ever invaded the United States would protect Canada at all cost? Yet a U.S. citizen is not welcome to an open meeting. In closing all I have to say is "vote", The Liberals will not call you a rat. ANGRY LIBERAL Whitby HOSPITAL VISITS Dear Sir: Most people agree with Mr. Wilson's and Mr. Washing- ton's statement with reference to visitors at the hospital. People who are really ill, do not want so many visitors, especially mobs of organiza- tion members, etc. Another point which needs clarifying is smoking. I am a smoker, but from what I have seen in the hospital, if people are sick, they are not well enough to smoke. The danger was noted last week (of a pati- ent smoking under an oxygen tent). Notices are up, and nurses in attendance, yet peo- ple do not abide by the rules. Therefore discipline should be enforced. People abuse privileges. There are other people in Osh- awa besides UAW members and GM employees. E. DAVIES. Oshawa SAFETY MEASURE Dear Sir: This is in reply to 'Another Subsidy Payer' who objects to the advertising "defacing" our buses when the posting of bills is prohibited on hydro poles, etc. Please be advised that the banning of posters on the poles is a safety measure. The men who climb these poles could receive injuries from nails, tacks, etc., used to fasten posters. I wonder if the person is bragging or complaining when he signs "Another Subsidy Pay- er", but the sale of advertising is one' way of reducing the sub- sidy. I tips me hat to the OPUC. ARNOTT C.

Sinclair was re- elected president of the Oshawa branch of the Victorian Order of Nurses. A sketch of the proposed route for the new provincial highway through Oshawa show- ed it to cross Simcoe street be- tween. McGregor and Gibb Streets, or where the Central Collegiate is now located. The Oshawa Generals won the Junior OHA hockey title in three straight wins from Guelph. City council refused to accept the resignation of Arthur H. Al- exander, superintendent of the Board of Works, Aldermen Sta- cey and Dafoe clashed in the question. Mrs. Evelyn Bateman gave a talk in Simcoe Street United Church on her round-the-world trip. An Oshawa-built McLaugh!'n- Buick was sold to the Duke of Kent. Six hundred Ukrainians at. tended a concert in St. John's Orthodox Parish Hall, in honor of their national poet Taras Shevchenko, Oshawa public school depos- its totalled $21,458 at the end of February, according to figures released by J. R. Littheproud, Ontario penny bank inspector. City council approved pur- chase of a new tractor, costing $3,095, to replace the 10-year- old machine. Sam Collis purchased the All- chin block at Bond and Simcoe streets for a figure in excess of $30,000. Col. J. F, Grierson was hon- ored at a banquet for 40 years' service on the Oshawa Public Library Board. A newly organized Oshawa Housewives' Assuciation, spon- sored by the Women's auxiliary of Local 222 elected the follow. ing officers: Mrs, T. Maybee, president; Mrs. A. Linton, vice. president and Mrs, T. Fairbro- ther, secretary. Big Majority Believes Health Plan THE CANADIAN INSTITUTE OF PUBLIC OPINION (World Copyright Reserved) Whatever effect it may or may not have on actual voting behavior, the great majority of Canadians think that a Medi- care program would be suc- cessful. More than 8 in 10 Cana- dians who have heard some- thing about the plan, believe that a satisfactory program be- tween government, patients and doctors could be worked out. Only about 1 in 10 denies this possibility. But Medicare is not familiar to all Canadians alike. In Que- bec province, for instance, a whopping 74 per cent of. the CANADA covesseveseisescsese Eastern Canada ORIATID sssevises The. West. ccvccrcccscrvccecees Among the small segment that has heard about Medi- caré and does not 'believe a satisfactory plan could be work- éd out, the reasons boil down Practical people say they have never heard of Medicare. In Ontario the figure is 18 per cent; in the West, 12 per cent; in the Mari- times, about 30 per cent, Because Medicare has fig- ured as a platform issue in the election campaign, interview- ers for the Gallup Poll asked those Canadians who said they knew something of the plan: "Do you, or do you not, think a satisfactory plan between gov- ernment, patients and doctors could be worked out?" As would be expected the West is most convinced of the success of such a plan -- but this point of view is high every- where, as the columns below show. Would Medicare Work? Qualified And Don't Know 7% 7 4 to three. First, doctors do not like State Medicine and should not be controlled. Taxes would be increased. Thére is too much government control] now. Yes No OTTAWA REPORT Pearson Cabinet Choices Reviewed By PATRICK NICHOLSON OTTAWA -- Emphasis would be on new blood and young blood, if Liberal Leader Hon, L, B. Pearson were to be in- vited by the Governor-General to form the governmet of Can- ada after election day. Veterans from the former Liberal cabinet, and even sen- ior back-benchers from those days, are scarce in Parliament now. Yet that small handful can feel down their necks the threatening breath of new- comers racing for cabinet posts. The dreamed-of Liberal cab. inet-that-never-was caused sev- eral of these old war-horses to hold two meetings in Ottawa during last spring's election, at which they tried to pre-empt for themselves the plum posts which the electorate did not drop into their eager hands. But. sure of plums are the four survivors from the Mac. kenzie King and St. Latirent cabinets: Mike Pearson, who would of course be prime min- ister; Hon. Paul Martin, who would be minister for external affairs; Hon. Lionel Chevrier and Hon. Jack Pickersgill who YOUR HEALTH could almost choose their posts. There remains also Hon. Paul Hellyer, who was appointed to the cabinet after the dissolution of parliament in 1957 for a 60- day stint as associate minister of national defence; so he has the status but not the experi- ence of an ex-minister. Former parliamentary assist- ants to ministers, who would rate consideration for the cab. inet are George Mcliraith (Ott- awa) and Bill Benidickson (Kenora). Oher veteran MPs with obvious claims for con- sideration are Alan Macnaugh- ton, prominent Montreal law- yer and businessman; Bert Badanai, longtime mayor of Fort William; John Matheson who is Brockville's MP with a future; Bedard Robichaud who is a former New Brunswick director of fisheries; Quebec's Lucien Cafdin; and Niagara Falls' Judy La Marsh, who is really smarter than the fall-guy she looked when leading the Truth Squad. : SMART RECRUITS CAME The Liberal surge last year brought back into parliament Calcium Required Throughout Life By Joseph G. Molner, M.D. Dear Dr. Molner: A friend of mine sait she could not take calcium because the vitamin D it contains makes bones grow, and at her age of 58 she doesn't want this to happen. I take calcium and vitamin D every day and I'm 70. What about her opinion?--MRS. E. W. The friend may be very cer- tain in her views, but she's decidedly mixed up. There isn't any vitamin D in calcium. They are entirely sep- arate things, although vitamin D, among other valuable serv- ices, aids proper use of calcium in the body. She is also misinformed about bone growth. The bones don't continue to grow after one has reached full stature, and no amount of vitamin D, calcium or anything else you consume can make them grow. On the other hand, through- out our lives we continue to need calcium, It is gradually replaced in the bones to keep them strong. (We are con. stantly replacing our bodies a cell at a time.) Calcium is important in heal- ing wounds. By the same token it helps prevent bruises, or makes them fade more quickly. It plays an active part in preventig muscular cramps So you just. go your way and don't worry about the misinfor- mation that your friend gave you. (Incidentally, I hope she gets enough calcium in her food to keep healthy. Leafy green vegetables and milk are among many sources of calcium. We'd be in a sorry pickle if calcium weren't plentiful in some of our foods.) after absences both Art Laing, former provincial Liberal leader in B.C., and Allan Mac. Eachen of Nova Scotia who is a prominent advisor to Mike Pearson. It also brought sev. eral newcomers with high rat. ings. These include 'Bud' Drury, a former deputy minis- ter of national defence; his brother-in-law Walter Gordon, former royal commission chair. man; Vancouver's Jack Nich. olson, former senior executive of Sarnia's Polymer Corpora- tion; and Quebec political headé liner Maurice Sauve. Now seeking re-election after defeat is P.E.I.'s Watson Me Naught, a one-time parliament ary assistant to the, minister of fisheries. NEW CABINET PROPOSAL Several candidates who have never sat in parliament are said to have been virtually promised quick advancement if they and their party win elec. tion. These include former dep- uty minister of trade, Mitchell Sharp (Toronto); Mayor Harry Hays (Calgary); Mayor Sid Buckwold (Saskatoon); Rudy Usick (Selkirk) who is replac- ing the would-be Liberal can- didate, Chief Justice Thorson of the Exchequer Court, who was recently wounded by a bandit in Brazil. é Then there is Hazen Argue, who quit the parliamentary leadership of the New Demo- cratic Party to join the Liberal party. He is said to be serving a two years' sentence for de- contamination, imposed by Mike Pearson before he would be even considered for prefer- ment. And Maurice Lamontagne, one of Mr. Pearson's most able brain-trusters, nearly retired to his academic and musical life after his second electoral trouncing in the former Liberal stronghold of Quebec East last summer, But he is running in the Liberal fortress of Mont- real-Outremont, whose sitting member Romuald Bourque was allegedly promised a Senate seat if he would make way for Lamontagne. : These names include those most likely to be named to a Liberal cabinet representative of all provinces. But it is likely that Mr. Pearson, should he become prime minister, would initiate a new governmental practice: A large comprehen- sive "ministry", with a com- pact inner "cabinet" to design policy and outline strategy. This would take much grinding rou- tine and petty detail off the over-burdened shoulders of sen. ior ministers. 1S TOP EXPORT Cardamom, a herb, is the principal export crop of Sikkim, a tiny Himalayan kingdom.
