| She Oshawa Times Published by Canadian Newspapers Limited 86 King St. E., Oshawa, Ontario T. L, Wilson, Publisher FRIDAY, JUNE 21, 1963 -- PAGE 6 Refusing To Face Fact Of Uprising By Negroes President Kennedy has asked the United States Congress for stronger weapons to fight racial discrimina- tion, but he will get them only over the bitter opposition of segre- gationist Congressmen and their allies. The opponents stubbornly refuse to face the fact which is now obvious to everyone else: The racial unrest in various. parts of the United States is not the result of isolated action by some groups of "uppity Nigras", but a genuine and general uprising. And the only sur- prising thing about it is that it has been so long coming and that is it Still so moderate in tone. Negro leaders in all parts of the United States have clearly made up their minds that the struggle against segregation in all its forms, overt or subtle, must be fought now, not only in the south, but in all parts of the country. Dr. Martin Luther King Jr. has said that any attempt by southern €ongressmen to filibuster against civil rights legislation will be a signal for a nation-wide protest march on Washington. In view of what Dr. King has already accom- plished and the loyalty of his follow- ing, one must believe that he is not bluffing: There will indeed be a protest march, and it will be mass. ive proportions. While the headlines are being made in the southern states, Negroes in northern cities are stag- ing demonstrations of various sorts against the less obvious forms of segregation to which they are subjected. It is a tense and dangerous situ- ation. It could explode into the worst violence in the U.S. since the Civil War. If it does, the blind racists in Congress and elsewhere will be to blame; all the Negro is asking for is his place as a citizen. At the same time, the Negroes should recognize that much more than legislation is needed to solve their problem. It requires a change of heart more than a change of law -- and that, unfortunately, may be a long way in the future. Questionable Tax Move Finance Minister Walter Gordon is on a very hot griddle but he can- not expect much sympathy. He put himself there. His consultation with outside "experts" during the preparation of the budget got him into some trouble, but he could give a reason- able explanation of his action. The nation had been without a budget for well over a year; he needed all the help and all the ideas he could get to bring it down within the promised 60 days of taking office. : But then his budget turns out to be a sorry document, in many res- pects; and he and his so-called ex- perts showed an incredible lack of understanding of what some of its provisions would do to the stock 'market. The proposal to put a 30 per cent tax on sales of $50,000 or more to foreign buyers in shares of e Canadian company sent the market into a tailspin as foreign investors began to unload their holdings -- to shift, presumably, to less discriminatory areas of invest- ment. The stock-tax gimmick, apart from its effect on prices, would have been extremely difficult to enforce and police, a fact which was immediately recognized by commen- tators with any knowledge of market procedure. Does Mr. Gordon know so little about the market? One is forced to think so, and the belief is reinforced by Mr. Gordon's incredibly inept decision to announce the withdrawal of the 30 per cent tax before the close of the market on Wednesday. Some people made a lot of money during the hour be- tween Mr. Gordon's announcement and the market close. Mr. Gordon's handling of the 30 per cent tax gimmick tends to con- firm the gaucherie of the entire budget sequence. Prime Minister Pearson should give heed to Opposi- tion demands that the Commons make a very searching study of the whole affair. Mr. Gordon's performance so far has raised grave doubts about his ability to handle the finance port- folio. Pollution And Health "= A report issued this week by "the Metro Toronto Planning Board "Bays that smog conditions in Tor- "Bnto "represent a great potential "Banger to health," and only mete- 6rological luck -- winds off Lake Ontario -- saves Toronto residents from choking in fumes. Indeed, except for Lake Ontario wind, Tor- "onto would be in a much worse "position than Los Angeles, famed sfor its smog, because there is actu- cally more air pollution in Toronto "than in the California City. «= Every other industrial city in ~@anada has a growing problem of air pollution. But the medical pro- fession is strangely silent about its -effect on public health. Dr. A. R. J. 'Boyd, Toronto medical officer of health, is quoted as saying that the description of air pollution as a "potential danger to health" is "strictly a matter of opinion.

Perhaps the doctors are too busy with their great crusade against cigarette smoking to consider the possibilities inherent in polluted air. They are blaming smoking for an increase in lung cancer; statistically, they have a strong case, even though they do not know exactly how or why the link between lung cancer and cigarette smoke exists. The doctors are quite right to do everything they can to alert the public to the probable dangers of heavy, continuous smoking of tobacco, particularly in the form of cigarettes. But they should not concentrate on cigarettes to the ex- clusion of other possibilities, as they now seem to be doing. Pollu- tion in air would seem to be a highly likely suspect -- and while one does not have to smoke, one has to breathe. It is much easier, however, to call for action against tobacco than to demand that industrial concerns, business blocks and households stop filling the air with the chemicals that result from 'inefficient com- bustion. Bible Thought And it shall come to pass, that whoseever shall call on the name of the Lord shall be delivered. -- Joel 2:32, When problems arise and diff- culties surround us, we can still call upon the name of the Lord and find Him faithful to deliver. TT CAN GE REPORT FROM U.K. T CHOPPY FAR 2 Still Competition For Good Teachers By M. McINTYRE HOOD Special Lodon (Eng.) Corepondent For The Oshawa Times LONDON -- In England and Wales, the salaries for school teachers are fixed on a national scale. All local education au- thorities are bound by these scales. This means that the bid- ding for the services of school teachers, which is so prevalent between boards of education in Canada, has no place in the educatioal system here. In Ontario, for instance, wealthier municipalities do not hesitate to offer high salary scales to. attract teachers away from communities which are not so well of From my one past experience as a member of the Oshawa board of education, I know that much of the turnover of teaching staffs in the smaller municipalities is due to the fact that they are outbid by other more fortunately-situated com- munities. That kind of competition, how- ever, does not exist in England and Wales, nor in Scotland, where salaries are tied rigidly to national scale, and no one educational authority is able to offer higher rates of salary than any others. OTHER METHODS This does not mean, however, that there is no competition be- tween educational authorities for the teachers available. While they cannot offer the teachers higher salaries, there are other substantial inducements which can quite legally be offered to secure the services of teachers The educational committee of Oxfordshire, for instance, has found other means of attracting teachers to its staff. It has ap- proved a plan by which it offers teachers grants towards their costs of moving to Oxfordshire, better staff rooms, special terms of leave of absence and many other improved working condiiions. A spokesman for the committee said: "We believe not only that favorable conditions are a def- inite aid to teacher recruitment, but enhance also the credit of the local educational authority in the eyes of the teaching pro- fession generally." In a report on its new scheme, the committee says there has been some difficulty in securing the best candidates for posts, or on occasion making an. appoint- ment at 'all, because of the ex- pense involved for an applicant moving from one area to an- other, The committee is to make substantial grants towards mov. ing expenses and lodging allow- ances for a period. All this is perfectly legal, but can be an inducement in securing teachers from other areas. YOUR HEALTH FROM SHORE' One of the causes of dissatis- faction and hard feeling among teachers is the supervision of the school dining rooms at meal time. But Oxfordshire is going to remove this grievance by 'making other arrangements for dining room supervision. A special scheme designed to give teachers ample leave of ab- sence for approved study and research is being instituted, The committee says this is one of the most valuable directions in which an authority can improve the service conditions of its teachers. So, with these inducements, Oxfordshire is not likely to suf- fer from a shortage of appli- cants for places on its teaching staffs -- at least until other authorities get wise to what that county is doing and _ institute similar or better plans them- selves. . Further Inquiries On Mononucleosis By JOSEPH G. MOLNER, MD Dear Dr. Molner: The doctor says I have infectious mononu- cleosis and that there is no med- ication that can cure it. He pres- cribed rest. I would appreciate some additional information.-- MRS, H Dear Doctor: Is there any connection with TB?--M. E. R. Dear Sir: Can it affect your blands? Does the white count in the blood go up? How long does it stay with you? Some of my friends' children have been hit by it.--MRS. M. S. Dear Doctor: My husband, who is in Korea, writes that he has it. And there after-effects? --MRS. R. V. A whole swarm of letters-- again--on mononucleosis. It is caused by a virus, and is moderately contagious, spe- cially in the age group 15 to 25. It seems to spread in dor- mitory groups, such as in col- leges, institutions, the army, etc, : : No, it has no connection with tuberculosis, and no, there are no. after effects once the dis- ease is over, But weeks may be required in some cases before weakness and lassitude are all past. Principle symptoms are the weakness, an exudate in the throat, enlangement and some- BY-GONE DAYS 35 YEARS AGO The General Motors Music and Dramatic Club sponsored an excursion to Niagara Falls im which more than 500 panrtici- pated The Ontario Regimental Band opened the season of weekly concerts at Alexandra Park.

R. A. and Mrs. Whattam of Albert Street United Church celebrated their silver wedding anniversary. Bert Johnston was elected chairman of a commiitee to ar- ja gd for a picnic for the chil- ren of Oshawa, sponsored by the Kinsmen Club.

Like in other dis- eases, a case may be severe or mild. It's quite true that there is no medical cure, just as with the common cold. But also like the common cold, it doesn't kill you, and you get over it with patience. Getting ample rest and nourishing food is the best treatment. Medication can keep the patient more comfortable in severe cases. A special type of white cell predominates in the blood while the disease is active, so a blood count and a special test called the "'heterophile antibody reac- ion" are used for diagnosis. As the disease wanes, the blood re- turns to normal. For a long time infectious moncnucleosis has been re- garded as another name for glandular fever. Just this spring, however, it was pointed out at a meeting of the Ameri- ean College of Physicians that "glandular fever' is a term that should be limited to a somewhat different disease which occurs in children of from § to 8 years, Gianduiar fever is more con- tagious; however it doesn't last as long. There is enlargement of the blands and there may be muscle pain, but there are no characteristic' changes in the blood. Thus, though outwardly the two diseases seem quite sim- ilar, they are not the same. Planning Well Advanced On B.C. River Project By STEPHEN SCOTT VANCOUVER (CP)--"It will cost about $8,500,000." The man twiddling the pencil at the desk didn't bat an eye as he mentioned the sum. Beside him in his modern of- fice were plans and specifica- tions for a project hat will cost, all told, $73,558,648. Conversation with Graham Dawson, president of Dawson Construction Co. of Vancouver, has to be in terms of hundreds of thousands or millions when it involves the Portage Moun- tain dam, part of British Co- suinbia's Peace River hydro- electric power project. Mr. Dawson is in a consor- tium with Peter Kiewit Sons Co. of Canada Ltd., Vancouver, and Al Johnson Construction Co., Windsor, Ont., which has been awarded the contract to build the dam for the B.C. Hydro and Power Authority. In an interview he described some of the preliminary plan- ning that is going into construc- tion of the 600-foot-high, 1%4- mile-long earth-filled dam 150 miles north of Prince George. The $8,500,000--"we hope it OTTAWA REPORT will be léess'"'--will be for a con- veyor belt system and proces- sing plant. Belts will pick up gravel, rock and silt from two hills of glacial material four miles from the site. BUILDING ROADS They will dump the material on to a single belt that will carry it to the processing plant. The sorted and cleaned material will be carried close to the dam site by two belts. Then 100-ton- capacity truck - trailers will transport it: to the river bed. Before work on the main dam begins, however, there will be planning meetings, arrange- ments for building and equip- ping a camp at the site for workers, designing the material- processing building and estab- lishment of an office here to handle personnel and finances. Ben Williams, a Kiewit em- ployee who has been associated with many larger. projects in- cluding the St. Lawrence Seas way, will be project manager. The first work to be done this summer will be construction of access roads and diversion dams. By fall the first small dams, Heath Macquarrie Looks At Politics By PATRICK NICHOLSON OTTAWA --"A statesman thinks of the next generation, but a politician thinks merely of the next election." This new twist to the distinc- tion between the profound and the shallow in public life was given by Heath Macquarrie when delivering the keynote address at the annual meeting of the Ontario Young Progres- last week. His speech was the speech of a deep thinker; for Heath Mac- quarrie, the rotund 43-year-old professor and genial Tory MP for Queens, P.E.I., is of the stuff of which statesmen are made, Not for him the shallow emotionalism of the here-today and gone-tomorrow opportunist politician. The Young PCs enjoyed his thumbnail survey of Canadian politics and appraisal of politi- cal platforms--for a change, of days long ago. He did not men- tion any federal leader more recent than Mackenzie King; and as a Maritimer he dwelt much on the great Maritime prime minister, Sir Robert Bor- den, whose biographer he is. NAMES STAR LEADERS With an impartiality which no mere politician would show, Tory Macquarrie bestowed great praise upon a famed Lib- eral, Canada's first French- Canadian prime minister. "The victory of Robert Bor- den and the Conservative Party in 1911," he declared, "was a high-water mark in the history of our country. It ended a po- litical era which, next to that of John A. Macdonald, was doubtless the brightest in our history." The second-brightest era to which he referred was the 15- year regime of Sir Wilfrid Laurier. He explained his lower evaluation of the even longer Mackenzie King era by saying that it had "few attributes which one would describe as glorious or bright.'* Laurier, Macquarrie re- minded his audience, was de- TODAY IN HISTORY By THE CANADIAN PRESS June 21, 1963 ... The American Constitu- tion came' into force 175 years ago today--in 1788. The constitution was estab- lished in order to "form a more perfect Union, estab- lish justice, ensure domes- tic tranquility, provide for the common defence, pro- mote the general welfare and secure the blessings of liberty to ourselves and our posterity." 1942 -- Tobruk, North Af- rica, fell to the Germans in the Second World War. 1843--The Royal College of Surgeons was founded in London. @ PLAN A _WTH A FUTURE AS A C.G.A.

Assoc. of Canado EXECUTIVE SECRETARY 67 YONGE STREET, TORONTO, 1 ONTARIO CAREER @ feated by Canadian voters who rejected his proposal for recip- rocal free trade with the U.S. in a wide range of manufac- tured articles and natural prod- ucts. He quoted an almost- forgotten comment by Rudyard Kipling, which he said made a great impression at that time. Kipling warned that Canada's soul would be threatened by the reciprocity agreement. "Once that soul is pawned, Canada must inevitably con- form tothe commercial, legal, financial, social and ethical Standards which will be im- posed upon her by the sheer weight of the U.S. ...1I1 see nothing for Canada in recipro- city except a little ready money, which she does not need, and a very long repent- ance." WIDE EXPERIENCE Heath Macquarrie has en- joyed wide experience of inter- national affairs, most inten Sively as parliamentary secre- tary to our foreign minister duting the recent Conservative regime, and as a Canadian delegate at various interna- tional gatherings, Perhaps he feels, as statesman and not as politician, that the warning of Rudyard Kipling may 'soon ap- peal to Canadians once more, when the choice must be made between an economic link with the U.S. and membership in a wider, less submerging Atlantic Common Market, This wide - ranging keynote speech was one of those rare gems which make one regret the impermanency of the spoken word, impossible to clip for future reference and repeated enjoyment, It un- derlined yet again the great contribution which P.E.1.'s young MP' can make and has made and undoubtedly will make to Canada's public life. Indeed, it revived Parliament Hill's question without an an- swer: By what yardstick was Heath Macquarrie judged when he was passed over in the se- lection of a new senator from P.E.I. early this year? above and below the site, will be built and the river will be flowing through three huge tun- nels now being completed. Then work will start on either in- creasing the size of the up- stream dam or building a third one. Eventually a dam 135 feet high and containing 900,000 cubie yards of material will stand upstream. DIG FOR BEDROCK When the river is diverted work will start on moving about 1,000,000 cubic yards of material from the river bottom to get down to bedrock on which the dam must be built. After that the rock will be grouted--holes drilled up to 300 feet and con- crete poured in' to strengthen the rock. Not until then will the first material for the main structure be dumped into the river bot- tom--impervious silt or clay in the middle and rock and gravel on the outside. ' At its peak Mr. Dawson esti- mates the dam construction will employ about 700 men. It is exe pected to take about five years, PARAGRAPHICAL WISDOM In a few cases, no doubt, the "blushing bride" is blushing be- cause she is ashamed of some of the tactics she resorted to in 'landing the fellow. "Many young people marry before becoming _ financially able to do so," says a sociolo- gist. Yes; otherwise our popula- tion would be increasing by creeps and crawls (no pun in- tended) instead of by leaps and bounds. "An artist's painting is a re- flection of his mind," says an artist. In the case of an ab- Stract painter, this couldn't be true, as no person's mind could be that mixed up. "Culture is fast getting to be big business," says a sociolor gist. Yes, of course -- it's being sold as a status symbol. The widely - held theory that heavy taxation kills the incen. tive to work is erroneous. It provides one of the strongest in- centives for people to work, and work hard -- in order to have enough money, after taxes, to survive, POLAROID COLOR FILM. IS HERE! Drop in. . .

WATER tells the truth about whisky Water (plain or sparkling) is your most reliable guide to the whole truth about any whisky. Water adds nothing, detracts nothing, but reveals a whisky's true natural flavour and bouquet. Put Seagram's "83" to the water test and you'll agree--to be that good with water, it must be a superb whisky and a more satis- fying drink with any man's favourite mixer.
