She Oshawa Times Published by Canadian Newspapers Limited 86 King St. E., Oshawa, Ontario T. L. Wilson, Publisher FRIDAY, JULY $, 1963-----PAGE 6 No Evidence Of Genius Lost In School Mills After a study of the childhood of 20 men of genius, An American psychologist concluded that in every ease the brilliant men as children received a high degree of attention and love from adults, were pretty much isolated from other children outside their families, and as a result developed a "marked snse of fan- tasy." He also concluded that since the system of mass public education tends to reduce "all three of these factors to minimum values," it also tends to "supress the oceurrence of genius." It is not the task of public edu- cation to foster the exceptionally rare being whom posterity judges to have been a genius, But does it really suppress genius -- dis- courange it, undo it, destroy it? It probably doesn't, for the simple reason that the only genius of which we know is that which has asserted and expressed itself, The genius that failed, that was never recognized, that was sup- pressed, is something like a contra- diction in terms -- for how can we be sure that it was in fact genius? There is a certain sentimental notion that mute inglorious Mil- tons, And Mozarta who didn't know the black keys from the white, and Sinsteins who couldn't do sums, have abounded and been lost to us, But what evidence is there that they ever existed? Somebody has said that everyone is a genius until he attempts to do something, Probably genius cannot be explained in terms of vast labor, infinite pains or "supreme capacity for taking trouble" any more than it can be éxplained in any other terms. But the only genius of which the world is aware is the genius who has surmounted all obstacles, over- come lack of education and over- education alike, love and want of love, poverty and wealth, exuberant health and illness, lavish recogni- tion and neglect, understanding and misunderstanding. In short, if it is genius it breaks through all ciream- stances and knows no limit save that set by death itself, It's One Day At A Time Make it a day at a time. Forget what happened yesterday, Never mind worrying about getting through tomorrow That seemingly simple formula has freed more than a quarter of a million people in 80 countries from alcoholic slavery during the past quarter century, Many thousands more alcoholics have managed to quit drinking for good through the system without becoming registered members of Alcoholics Anonymous, which has just marked its 28th anniversary. AA was founded and continues to grow on self-knowledge. That be- gins for the alcoholic only when he admits the disease -- and its ans- wer; when he admits that he's one ef those persons who for some re- ason not yet understood is absolu- tely overpowered by alcoho!, He just ean't drink it with any control, The first drink starts a compul- sive bat that may go on for days, weeks, months or indefinitely. In time, everything but the bottle can go -- profession, job, home, wife, ehildren, " The most tragic ten per cent; and on the skidroad, Others grope through terrified, hazy lives at various levels of society, depending upon Iuck and ability to survive. AA has its famed 14 steps that work for most of those who go at it with a admission of alcoholism and a real determination to quit drink- ing. These are the biggest steps, since the greatest treachery of al- cohol is to trick the mind out of taking them, Once the path is set, says one AA member, it goes this way "Anyone can go for 24 hours without a drink. That's all we really do in AA, We know we can't do a _ thing about what happened yester- day. So we concentrate on staying away from the first drink today. And if we feel the old urge for a drink coming on, we call one of our A.\ buddies instead," Guinea Turns To West Stil] another emerging nation has become disenchanted with the Com- munists and is turning back to the West.

Rn. who will exert the greatest in- fluence on pay and working conditions," DANGER TO UNIONS In this process of change, Mr. Swindelis sees a direct threat to the position of the trade unions unless they adapt themselves to meet the new conditions, He said that all too often, whether union leaders liked it or noi, the change from manual to aon- manual work was accompanied by a change in political and so- cial eutlook, and the develop- ment of what he termed an en- tirely erroneous assumption that trade unionism was Rot neces: sary Mr, Swindells asked what the whions must de to attract the new froatiersmen of industry Yn reply, he said: "The answer lies in the fact that as pay packets grow fat. ter, fear of unemployment and loss Of income increases. If tris is 90, the provision of measures to protect members against sud- den falls in income may provide what we need, The provision of such measures will provide the Rew methods ef appeal that we need," Mr. Swindelis made much of the fact that in the last 15 years @aring which the change from brawn to brain in industry had decome apparent, the member. ship of the Trades Union Con- gress has remained at a stable figure, in spite of the large in- crease in the namber of people employed.

He askod Mr. Martin the question: "What steps have been taken and what recommendations have deen ad: vanced by the government of Canada since 1956 to give te NATO, apart from the military, 1Y a political and an economic con- tent?" The: short answer, as anyone interested: in foreign affairs could have told Mr. Matheson-- not that he himself did not know this only too well--is "nothing." But the long answer was given on behalf of Mr, Martin by his parliamentary secretary, John B. Stewart, MP for Anti. gonish-Guysborough, Mr, Stew- art is a doctor of philosophy and an able young man. Bat the answer which he presented in Parliament to Mr. Matheson's Question "was complete smoke. in-the-eye, garded in 200 words of bureaucratic gobbledegook, WORDS FOR DEEDS . The answer even contained internal evidence that the civil servants Who composed it are not familiar with the topic, The talkshop created to foster QUEEN'S PARK economic progress among the Atlantic nations is commoniy , referred to as OECD. This | stands for the Organization for Economic Co-Operation and De- velopment, But in the answer, this organization is misnamed, Mr, Stewart went on to pay proud lip-service to talk, boast ing of Canada's determination play a full role in consulta- on." But what the Atlantic nations desperately need now is eco nomic and even political inte. gration; not just economic and political consultation, The North Atlantic Treaty On. ganization recently celebrated its 14th birthday, with the Com- munist nations breahing down its neck as never before, Yet the member nations of NATO have not got beyond the stage of consulting -- in 14 years about what they will do to give NATO the political and eco nomic strength referred to by Mr, Matheson. This is not en Urely Canada's fault; but the idea was Canada's baby, Consultation continued for 14 rs_is not good enough, as t, Martin knows full well, well, Does he want historians to tell, his grandchildren: "Paal consulted, while Khrushchey constructed?" Awkward Decision On Loan Program By DON O'HEARN TORONTO--At the time of writing here Premier Robarts is thinking over one of the hard. est decisions he has had to make since taking over office, Should Ontario line up with Quebec and oppose the new fed- eral municipal joan program?
