She Oshawa Times Published by Canadian Newspapers Limited 86 King St. E., Oshawa, Ontario T. L, Wilson, Publisher FRIDAY, JUNE 7, 1963 -- PAGE 6 RCMP Blunder Reveals Need For Fresh Force "This newspaper has frequently defended the RCMP against what we considered unjust or biassed cfiticism. But no defence can be made of the inexcusable RCMP error in the case of Gordon Knott, who was discharged from the Royal Canadian Navy 17 months ago on the RCMP's false assertion that he was a security risk. This is not the first instance of RCMP clumsiness in security inves. tigations. Indeed it becomes more and more difficult to defend the force for some of its actions in this area, and we are gradually being pushed to the conclusion that it might be better to organize a separate force to handle this area of investigation -- a force raised and trained specifically for counter- intelligence and other security work. The Mounties could continue in the area of orthodox police work. Young Knott's dismissal from the Navy was based on an RCMP report that two "reputable sources" had spid he was the nephew of Ernest Knott, a Communist candidate in the 1953 federal election. The sour- ces were obviously not reliable, no matter how reputable they may have been to the RCMP. Even a cursory check would have shown that Gordon Knott was in no way related to Ernest Knott. Indeed, it took only a weekend check by the RCMP to clear him of the bad-risk charge after the matter was raised in the Commons by Colin Cameron, New Democratic MP from British Columbia. After the investigation, Justice Minister Chevrier admitted to the House that an injustice had been done. The shocking thing about. this particular case is the lack of proper investigation by the RCMP. They were willing, apparently, to tarnish a young man's reputation and des- troy a possible naval career on the flimsiest of hearsay evidence. It severely shakes public confidence in a force which needs the fullest con- fidence. Another aspect of the case is that of guilt by association. A service- man, apparently, is a poor security risk simply because of the politics of his relatives. This, too, demands further investigation. 12-Mile Fishing Limit : = There should be general approval if Canada of the federal govern- ment's decision to establish in mid- May, 1964, a 12-mile exclusive fish- eries zone along the whole coast- line of Canada, with the straight- baseline method being used to measure the zone. This newspaper has long advocated such a measure. ©The straight-baseline method means that the demarcation line runs from one promontory to an- other and does not follow all the indentations of the coast. It could mean the reservation of huge fish- ing areas for Canadian use; it could possibly enclose the waters from Bova Scotia to Newfoundland to Labrador on the east coast, and éverything within a line drawn from aff the Queen Charlottes to Van- ebuver Island on the west coast. > It is likely, however, that an ad- fustment of rights with the United States and France will be accom- plished. Prime Pearson has said that the government would take into consideration the treaty fishing rights held by the United States and France in the Bay of Fundy and Gulf of St. Lawrence. He told the Commons: "Discussions will be held with the U.S.A. with a view to deter- mining the nature and extent of the U.S.A. rights and interests which may be affected by the action which Canada is taking. Discussions will also be opened as soon as possible with other countries affected." The Americans should have been prepared for the Canadian action, because they have had at least five years' warning. Canada was talking about extension of the three-mile limit before the first Law of the Sea Conference five years ago, and at that conference differed sharply with the U.S. and Britain, both of whom wanted the old limit retained. Since then, Britain has decided to extend the limit to 12 miles, also beginning next May. The dredging methods of fish- ing now employed by the vessels of many countries make the extension necessary to protect both the fish- ing grounds and the fishermen. Motorist's Decalogue * Every motorist knows the rules of the road, of course. But somehow accidents still seem to occur with distressing regularity, particularly én straight highways in fine, clear weather. People, it seems, are for- getful, and for these people the Dominion Automobile Association suggests the following decalogue: Don't give. your fellow driver eredit for even elementary common sense. Make minute-to-minute driv- ing decisions from your own point of view. Allow yourself plenty of time to reach your destination. Delays crop up on every trip; allow extra time to take care of them. * Don't be a tail-gater. The gen- erally accepted interval of one car length for each 10 mph may be safe, ' She Osharon Times 1.

If you want to pass, do so quickly and on the left; if there's the slightest element of risk, don't try. Don't drive a vehicle with any known shortcomings, such as old tires, at highway speeds; a small failure can make a big, deadly crash. Everybody can't afford to drive a new model, but you can assess the limitations of your particular vehicle -- its age, its power, its idiosyncracies.

Correspondent For The Oshawa Times LONDON -- With the passing of the Whitsuntide holidays, a wave of despondency has taken hold of the great army of board. ing-house landladies who look to summer holiday-makers to provide them with a substantial income to tide them over the winter months. There are not nearly as many of these boarding house land. ladies as there were 10 years ago. They are a dwindling army, very largely because of the changing habits of the peo- YOUR HEALTH Husband's Hunger Wife's Big Worry By JOSEPH G. MOLNER, M.D. Dear Dr. Molner: Perhaps you could explain why my hus- band eats so much. He leaves for work early and only wants a bow! of cereal for breakfast. He carries his lunch. He works at a desk all day. For example, last night at dinner he had seven pork chops, mashed potatoes, com, broc- coli, bread and butter and two Pieces of whipped cream. He read the paper for half an hour and said he was starved. From then until bedtime he consumed four roast beef sand- wiches and... Then he was angry because I wouldn't fix sausage and eggs at bedtime. Said he went to bed hungry. It's the same story every night. He is 27, 6 feet tall, weighs 183. I'm sure there must be a reason for his eating so much. He couldn't really need so much food, could he? He has an an- nual checkup and is healthy.-- M. R. G I cut off your list of the evening snacks, not that I doubt it--but it would be worth the price of admission just to see somebody eat that many dill pickles, cookies, ice cream bars, apples and extra slabs of pie. Hunger and appetite are not the same. Hunger is the de- mand of the body for food. Ap- petite is the wish for it, Babies can experience hunger, but not great dppetite for any particu- lar f In a big boy like yours I'd suspect that this problem is probably psychological. How TODAY IN HISTORY By Tie Canadian Press June 7, 1963... Eduard Benes resigned as president of Czechoslovakia rather than approve a Com- munist constitution 15 years ago today--in 1948--after Communists had managed to take over control of the state machinery. Benes with Thomas G. Masaryk was one of the heroes of the Czech freedom movement and es- tablished the 'republican state with the fall of Austria in 1918. With the freeing of Czechoslovakia from the Nazis in 1945, Benes re- turned to the presidency. 1905--Norway declared the dissolution of the union with Sweden. 1329--Robert The Bruce, King of Scotland, died. banana pie with - ple of Britain when it comes to taking 'their annual holidays. But this year they are more despondent than ever. They fear that this is going to be their worst season for years. They report that their bookings are down well below the level of re- cent years, while their ex- Penses, mostly in the form of staff wages and food costs, are much higher. One of the reasons given for the reduced bookings for seaside holidays is the long and severe winter weather of the early part of this year. This accentuated the desire of thousands of peo- ple to go abroad for their holi- days, and it is now quite com. g long has he been nibbling so prodigiously? I'm surprised he weighs only 183. One thing strikes me oddly: Wanting only a bowl of cereal for breakfast. That's carbohy- drate. Maybe if he had protein instead (eggs, with or without meat) it might stay with him better. His lunch also ought to contain protein -- meat, fish, cheese. He might have am overactive stomach which empties rapidly, or low blood sugar. Whatever, since he has an an- nual physical, I would get the doctor's ideas on this extraor- dinary eating. Maybe your hus- band hasn't thought it worthy of mention, Dear Dr. Molner: Is there any truth to the rumor that women who wear hard rollers every night to curl their hair are courting mental illness from constant pressure or damage? --MRS. A. 0. No the curlers might loosen the hair, or might make the scalp sore. The damage could be only scalp deep. There's a_ thick skull protecting the brain. mon for working-class families to head for the Costa Brava in Spain, the mountains of Switzer- land and the French and Italian Riviera for their annual vaca- tions. CHANGED PATTERN The holiday pattern for the people of Britain has been changing over the past several years. In earlier summers, it was quite a thrill to have a week's holidays by the seaside, It is not so any more. The increas.d earnings of the workers and their annual two or three weeks' holidays with pay has made them set their sights farther afield. So while the southcoast landladies are bemoaning their reduced bookings, the travel agencies which specialize in package-deal holidays on the continent have never been as busy as they are this summer. In addition to that, the vogue of the holiday camps, initiated by Canadian Billy Butlin, and the caravan camps where holi- day-makers can rent modern well-equipped caravans for their holiday period, is drawing hun. dreds of thousands of people away from the old type of sea- side holiday. Billy. Butlin expects to have approximately one million guests at his string of holiday camps and hotels during the 1963 season. HARD TO KEEP GOING So the seaside boarding-house landladies are finding it hard to keep going. A typical holiday landlady in a seacoast town I visited the other day said: "Wages have gone up, so have the taxes, but I dare not raise my charges for fear of losing more clients. I used'to have my regulars, but most of them now have cars and go touring." This pillar of a dying race, however, remained cheerful as she said: "I suppose we must expect a change." More Edwardian mansions which have previously supplied bed and breakfast are now be- coming furnished apartments. The robust landladies with the smiling welcome are retiring to country cottages. But, according to town offi- cials in the south coast resorts, this change is not having a ser- ious effect on their prosperity. They claim that the number of one-day trippers and weekend visitors is increasing, and that the holiday apartment business, where people can do their own cooking and not be dependent on landladies, is booming. BY-GONE DAYS 35 YEARS AGO C. E. McTavish presided at a convention of car service re- presentatives from Eastern Canada. Mrs. C. W. DeMille was pre- sented with a gold watch from her Sunday School class at King Street United Church. Ruth Cook, class president, made the presentation. R. S. McLaughlin was _ hon. ored by being elected to the di- rectorate of the National Horse Show Association of America. Rev. C. W. DeMille, president of the United Church Bay of Quinte Conference, preached at the convention held in Smith's Falls. General Motors Co. Ltd. an. nounced that a new million dol- lar plant would be erected in Regina. The police commission de- cided to abolish left-hand turns by motorists at King and Sim- coe streets. 0. M. Alger of Oshawa, and Rev, A. M, Irwin of Whitby, were chosen by the Oshawa Presbytery to be delegates at the United Church General Council held in Winnipeg. A contract was awarded to Edward Smith, Simcoe street south, for a $30,000 extension to the W. E. Phillips Co. Ltd. plant. Cc. E. McTavish was 'appoint. ed chairman of the newly-form- ed Oshawa Motor Club, Other committee members were C. R. Bailes, W. H. Karn, E. Parsons and M. E. Hartley. Rev. A. M. Irwin received a call to become the first pastor of the new North Simcoe Street Church at Arlington avenue and Simcoe street. The building permits for May reached a record total of $1,114, 515 for that month. The Oshawa Presbytery meeting at Smith's Falls authorized the erection of a $30,000 church at Albert street and Olive avenue. The graduate nurses, 1928 class of the Oshawa General Hospital, were entertained at a dinner and dance in Welsh's Parlors by the Alumnae Asso- ciation. The reception commit. tee consisted of Mrs. G. Johnston, association president, Mrs. E. Hare and Miss Anne Scott. From Hearts To Tanks Easy Jump For Solandt By KEN SMITH MONTREAL (CP) -- Tracing Dr. O. M. Solandt's career is like following one of those bouncing balls that point out the words at a community sing song. You go from medicine to tanks to bombs to trains and, at the moment, planes and sat- _ ellites. All in all, Dr. Solandt says with a grin, it has been an ex- tremely unusual life. Considering that he moved in 25 years from a_ carefully charted life in medicine to di- recting the CNR's giant re- search and development pro- grams, that's a bit of an under. statement. At various times Dr. Solandt, now 54, has helped look for an- swers to such diverse problems as heart disease, making tanks shoot straighter, banning nu- clear tests, providing blood transfusions for thousands of people during the London blitz and making trains run on time. He has been governor of a university, taught at a few and received honorary degrees from several, He is one of Canada's few medical men ever to have been made an honorary member of the Engineering Institute. He has studied with some of the world's great pathologists and organized and directed for nine years Canada's Defence Research Board. He can, and does, speak with authority on subjects ranging from the effects of atomic radi- ation on human beings to the way to get the most out of an electronic brain. But Dr. Solandt, who leaves his job as CNR's vice-president in charge of research and devel- opment June 10 to take a simi- lar post with the de Havilland Aircraft Company of Canada and Hawker Siddeley Canada Limited in Toronto, insists there is a chain of logic running through his career. His move away from medi- cine--to which, in the early 1940s, he had planned to devote his life--came when he started studying ways to improve the design of tanks for the British Army during the Second World War. He got interested in tank de. sign and operation after being invited to study the special med- ical and psychological problems faced by tank crews. "I soon decided the medical OTTAWA REPORT Russia May Plan Big Sugar Profit By PATRICK NICHOLSON OTTAWA -- Is the world su- gar market a_ speculator's dream--or a communist's cold- war battleground? Whatever the answer, spiralling prices for refined sugar are a headache to housewives and to fruit pro- cessors in Canada. Total world production of sugar last year was 51,000,000 short tons. This was 1,500,000 tons less than in the previous year. This cut was caused partly by severe weather condi- tions in Europe, which damaged the sugar-beet crop, and by the upheaval in Cuba, where work- ers left the sugar-cane planta- tioss to serve in the militia. That comparatively small drop-in supplies seems too in- significant to account for the jump in the price of raw sugar from three cents a pound last year to the recent figure of 13.2 cents on the world free market. But about 88 per cent of world sugar production is covered by long-term contracts between governments. Thus only some 6,000,000 tons of sugar is traded on the sugar . exchanges of London and New York, and the cut-back is a very important proportion of this small figure. We in Canada consumed 97.7 pounds of sugar a head last eS" only slightly less than the .S. average of 97.9 pounds. To feed the world population of 3,000,000,000 on this scale, the world would need to produce three times as much sugar as now. We grow about one-sixth of our sugar needs in the form of sugar-beet. Perhaps the pres- ent crisis will lead us to be-. come more self-sufficient, like Britain which grows _ two-fifths of its needs in the beet fields. CUBAN SLUMP Cuba used to be the world's largest producer of sugar cane, with an annual harvest of about 7,500,000 tons. This has now slumped to around 3,500,000 tons, leaving Russia's 1962 pro- duction of 6,500,000 tons of sugar to lead the world. Since the U.S. placed an em- bargo on trade with Cuba, Rus- sia has stepped in to buy the bulk of the Cuban crop, at about 34% cents per pound. Rus- sia also has call on the con- siderable production of sugar- beet from communist satellite farms. This enormous supply of sugar today gives Russia what could be a powerful economic weapon. It could well be that Russia is deliberately holding sugar off the world markets, thus aggravating the shortage and forcing up the specula- tor's price. The next step might be that Russia will gradually feed its huge stockpile of sugar back onto the market, selling for perbaps 13 cents a pound problems were minor compared with the design problems, so it seemed natural to me to turn to research in that field to try to find ways in which the men in the tanks could operate more ef- ficiently." HEADED ARMY RESEARCH From tank research it was, he Says, a small step to his next job in 1944--superintendent of the British Army's Operational Research Group, which was called on to tackle almost any kind of a problem that could pop up in trying to win a war. The experience of his wartime years led him when he returned to Canada in 1946 to the Defence Research Board. Nine. years' work with the board made it almost inevitable that he move oto induvirini repeal 3 the job with the CNR. - 'From trains to planes with his new post seems even more logical, if you follow Dr, So- landt's line of reasoning. Dr. Solandt, a native of Win. nipeg, says his lack of formal advanced education in various fields he has since leaving medicine, such as economics, physics, engineering, accounting metallurgy, has never sented a particular problem. The reason he gives is that you learn as you go along. An- other reasom which he doesn't | mention is that he has a clear, incisive mind that sops up knowledge like a blotting paper. In research, he says, every- one is teaching everyone else all the time. © Mansion At Sandhurs Big Change For General By ROD CURRIE SANDHURST, England (CP) Maj.-Gen, John Mogg, a man on the move ever since he packed up and left Canada at the age of 12, has settled for a time in Government House, the commandant's mansion at the famed Royal Military Academy at Sandhurst: "I haven't spent more than two years in one place except for 2% years in Malaya," Mogg said in reviewing his caerer since he joined the Coldstream Guards in 1933. For Gen. Mogg, who took up his appointment in April, the beautiful park-like grounds of Sandhurst, on the border of Surrey and Berkshire, are fam- iliar territory where in earlier years he was an honor cadet and then an instructor. His term as top man at the academy turning out Britain's young army officers will be about three years. Government House--a name left over from the days when the commandant was called governor and Sand- hurst cadets were fee - paying "gentlemen cadets'--was built for William Pitt the Younger and sold, after he became prime minister, as a site for the military academy in the early 1800s. TOPPED HIS CLASS Life in the magnificent old house, with its gardens and pri- vate tennis courts, is a far cry from the days in the Guards, which Mogg joined to fill in time before following through the Cuban sugar which it is buy- ing for 3% cents a pound. Russia might well make a profit of around a dime a pound on the Cuban crop of around 3,000,000 tons, for a total profit . $600,000,000--payable in dol- jars. COLD WAR WEAPON? With the sweetener in our coffee thus suddenly became a possible weapon in the cold war, what can the housewife do? There have been, as I write, approximately 35 upward ad- justments and only two down- ward adjustments in the price of sugar during the past turbu- lent months. This has contrib- uted to the widespread death of the ten-cent cup of coffee, and even to the closing down of at least one fruit processing plant in Canada. The House of Commons has heard protests about boosts in the price even though some four months supply of sugar is on hand, bought at lower prices, What can the housewife do? What can you and I do? My doctor has one good suggestion: Cut down on sweetening in the coffee, spread the jam thinner on the bread--and painlessly lose some of those superfluous pounds! on his family's plans for him te go into business in the Far East. But he liked the Guards, reached the "exalted rank of corporal" and beat several hun- dred other candidates for one of the few places at Sandhurst then open to enlisted men. After two years he graduated as Sword of Honor--best all- round cadet--and was commis- sioned into the Oxford and Buckinghamshire Light Infan- try, the unit his family had been associated with for years and in which one of his sons now is a lieutenant. Mogg, now 50, was born in Grantham, B.C., where his father, Capt. H. B. Mogg, had gone to farm land left to him by a relative. In 1914, when Mogg was one year old, his father joined the Canadian Army and the fam- ily came back to England. His father was severely wounded and when the family returned to the farm after the First World War he found the work too much for him and joined the customs and excise depart- ment in Victoria. His son at- tended St. Michael's School i for six years until he was WON DSO "Then I left Canada although I've been back four or five times as a soldier since," Mogg said. He came to England where "I had five or six years more or less on my own com- pleting my schooling." During the Second World War he commanded the 9th battalion Durham Light Infantry from D-Day through to Berlin and was awarded the DSO and Bar. After that he was instructor at the Staff College at nearby Camberley, the School of Infan- try, Warminster, and the Im- perial Defence College and for two years commanded the 10th Parachute Battalion. Returning from Malaya, where he commanded the 28th Commonwealth Brigade Group, Mogg took up one of his most important jobs --. director of combat development at the war office in London. In that post he was ooseurede "with the whole future of the army and its equipment--the role of the army in future wars'.' ee But his new job, Mogg says, "is the most exciting I've ever had." It takes more brains to become an officer today than it did before the war, he says. "The new young officer is much better educated, far ahead aca- demically of the pre-war offi- cer." Mogg and his wife, the for- mer Margare Molesworth whom he met while still a ca- det, have three sons: Nigel, 23, a lieutenant now studying at Cambridge; Patrick ,21, a stud- ent farmer in Dorset; and Tim- othy, 17, still at school.
