One Cana- dian doctor was quoted as saying that smokers are "intellectually des- titute and morally derelict." That kind of stupid talk is not going to persuade anyone to quit cigarettes. It seems that the medicos will have to produce more factual evi- dence to make a convincing case -- more facts and _ less emotional breast-beating.

As the Rubber Association of Canada was told at its recent annual meeting, "surely the time has come for our legislators to take some bold and imaginative steps if Canadian manufacturing is to survive and prosper and the Cana- dian buying public is to benefit through lower costs and lower prices." Any study of production sharing, it was felt, would reach these conclusions: The Canadian manufacture of tires could be material increased; production - sharing agreements could, be made without impairing the competitive system; the Cana- dian consumer would, in fact and practice, ultimately benefit through increased efficigncy of Canadian production and subsequent lower costs and prices. But it cannot be done under the present provisions of the Combines Act. tistical evidence to indicate links between cigarette smoking and lung cancer and several other ailments. But all that has been shown so far is a risk factor; not everyone who smokes heavily gets lung cancer; indeed, according to the calculations of the Royal College of Physicians, London, the "fractional risks of dying from lung cancer in decades from age 35 to 74" are 35\to 44 years one in 883,45 to 54 pet in 172,55 to 64 vee one in 23,65 to 74 years ond th 17, The risk of dying from any cause in the years after 65 seems fairly high? There are also questions to be answered: Why do South African white males, who smoke more cigar- ettes per capita than any nation in the world, have a lung cancer rate less than half the United King- dom's? Why is it that the ratio of®, female to male cancer cases in the United States has dropped from one in three to one in six cases in the past 30 years, although the ratio of women to men smokers has risen steadily ?

Correspondent For The Oshawa Times LONDON -- New moves which have been undertaken by repre- sentatives of the building indus- tries in the United Kingdom are likely to result in a substantial increase in, the demand in this YOUR HEALTH country for Canadian timber. Canada is a major supplier of building timber to the United Kingdom, but if the plans which are now under consideration are carried out, many new outlets for these products of the Cana- dian forests will be available.

MOLNER, MD Dear Dr. Molner: When we rushed my mother to the hospi- tal, none of us knew what was wrong with her. The doctor there said she had fluid in her lungs and heart trouble, but it wasn't aheart attack. Her own doctor said this is to 'be expected at her age, 72. He has prescribed an array of pills, stly for her heart. When we any ted if he had given her anything to eliminate the fluid from her lungs, he minimized the problem The doctor at the hospital said the fluid must be eliminated from her lungs before she gets better. This seems to be a con- tradiction. Should we see a spe- cialist about her lungs? Mother's. main complaint is that she has trouble breathing only when her heart begins to beat faster.--C, A. G The two: doctors are nol, as you suspect, contradicting each other. Your mother's case is not un- usual, She didn't have a heart attack, because that term is generally reserved for coronary thrombosis, a shutting off of blood flow through part of the coronary artery. She does have heart trouble-- "heart failure" is the proper term. It means that because of age, blood pressure or other changes, her heart no longer works as efficiently. As a consequence her pulse speeds up, she is short of breat these is congestion in the lu This may mean fluid within the jung tissue itself, or in the pleural pace just outside the lung.

The fluid in the lungs is a re- sult of the weakness of the heart, not a cause of it--al- though, of course, presence of the fluid 'ncreases breathing dif- ficulty and that in turn puts more burden on the heart It is heart disease, not lung disease. When fluid accumulates in the lungs, the patient may be given oxygen to ease breathing, seda- tives to quiet anxiety, digitalis to strengthen heart action, end drugs to facilitate release of ex- cess fluid from the system When the condition becomes stable, the patient can breathe better and resume moderate activity, depending on circum- stances It's true that the fluid should be removed; it is equally true that this will be possible only as the heart recovers some of its efficiency. There is no real contradiction in what the two" doctors said. One condition goes along with the other The. hospital wants the fluid to clear up so she ¢an go home; her regular dector wants. the heart to'remain strong enough so fluid won't begin accumulat- ing again.

The purpose of this panel is- to promote the building of tim- ber-framed houses, and to ex- change detailed information on techniques in timber building, architects' needs and such mat- ters. SIGNIFICANT MOVE A spokesman for the Timber Research and Developement As- sociation, which was responsible for organizing the panel, said: "T foresee a jarge increase in timber-framed "houses in the next few years'. The Risence of the Co-oper- ative Permanent Building So- ciety on the panel is considered particularly significant for the timber trade. In the past, build- ing society antagonism to tim- ber construction has been a drag on the growth of this type of building. In local 'authority building, timber constmuction has already won a fair measure of accept- ance, The latest break - through on this front hes been made by the firm of Caldtrs, with what are known as its "instant homes". Leslie Lawrence, an executive of Calders said that in addition to the 1800 of these timber homes on order from the London County Council, there is a possiblity of an order for 200 from Liverpool, and later or- ders from Sunderland and Glas- gow. Says Mr. Lawrence "Providing the local authority js standing by to connect up the services, a family can move into a complete house - right down to the decorations and ihe bathroom mirror - less than-an hour after we. arrive on the site." Mr. Lawrence describes the future market for timber as very rosy indeed, and other leaders in the industry echo his views A. B. Gourvitch, chairman of Phoenix Timber, says: "There has been a_ tre- mendous -uplift in the demand for timber for structural and en- gineering uses. The outlook for the industry is now very pro- mising. Demand for timber con- tinues to grow rapidly. Since April, we have been working hard to keep up with , orders. Everything is swinging.'

TRAPS tNWARY MINISTER The questions asked of the government at the opening of each day's sitting of the House "have rightly been described as "one of the most poweriul im- plements of democracy.' These probings may be submitted 'in wniting with 48 pours notice; or they may be asked orally, with or without prior notice to the minister to whom they are ad- dressed. The unheralded oral question can be the cutest little trap for the unwary or lazy or culpable minister; this is indeed a powerful weapon if adroitly wielded by an expert. But 'question period' has im- creasingly become a time-wast- ing farce, through successive Speakers of the House permit- ting MPs to use it for propa- gantia purposes, or to ask oral questions so trivial that they do not measure up to the tradi- rdstick of being "'of ur- mal importance."' Of- ten, ais backbench MPs some- times admit, they dream up un- important questions in the be- Kief that "I have to put in my ten cents' worth because every- one else is dojing so." "Question period" in the good old days of not many years ago GALLUP POLL used to last perhaps 30 min-: utes, Last week a new record was set up, I think, when 226 questions were pd€ed; well after 8 p.m. a restless House was still listening to the grilling of mimisters which had started at 2.30. FRENCH-CANADA HOUR Some 204 questions were printed on the Order Paper. Seven were asked by six Lib- eral MPs; 91 were asked by 33 different Tories, 75 by seven So- erds, and 80 by 11 NDPs. Sev- enty - five of these were an- swered, and the rest deferred. Then came 22 spontaneous onal qustions, some followed up by one or more "supplement- ary": questions. QUEEN'S PARK lished by two Socred MPs. One © put a group of 32 written ques- tions probing French-Canadian employment in the post office. Typical was the catch-all: 'How many, of all post office employ- ees im all parts of "Cemada, speak French?" The other put a group of questions worded ai- most identically except that they referred to the department of trade and commefce, instead of the post office. The British North America Act, of course, does not make French an offi- cial language universally in Canada, so it would have been just as appropriate to probe the number of letter-carriers who wear gloves when handling mail. The hoped-for midsummer ad- journment of Parliament, from July 15 until after Labor Day, ,Was a realistic tamget by the government. But the dillly-dallly- ing which is holding up the bus- iness of Parliament begins to make it look like a long sticky summer on Parliament Hill for our legislators. Things To Learn From Neighbors By DON O'HEARN Toronto--A few of us took a trip to Quebec City a while ago, It started ouy a3, an informal press gallery "a tata he orig- inal intention\was that some newspapermen would go down for the week-end ard visit with colleagues in Quebec. But it ended up a3 quite a sig- nificant occasion. Premier Robarts led the party, accompanied by isa tion Leader John Winterm ani NAQ.P, Lead a e Donald. : And the Quebec authorities recognized it as practically a state visit. Warm Hands Developments out of the trip have already been reported on the news, pages. Both Mr. Robarts and Pre- mier Lesage took advantage of the occasion to extend very warm hands across the border. And this occasion, which started out as acsmple thought in the minds of a few news papermen, will be marked as very important in years to come For it was the first time that anything like this was done. And it marked a very important step forward in Ontario-Quebec relations.

The more education peo- ple have, the more they believ- ed China to be the most danger- ous to world peace. At the uni- versity level 49 per cent. point to China and only 20 per cent name Russia.

But had not the greatest fault been that in Ontario we were too busy, too interested in our- selves to make overtures? As the richest and largest populated Canadian state, it had been up to us to take the first step. We hadn't done it. Had we been too smug Or perhaps too stupid. For obviously, as the at- mosphere of their chambers in themselves reflected, we had things to learn from their great people--fellow Canadians, but to date distant and uneasy neighbors, even if in the same house.
