OP ae 2 THE OSHAWA TIMES, Tussdoy, September 10, 1963 PM Puts Off Calling Session On Violence OTTAWA (CP) -- Prime Min- ister Pearson and his cabinet have decided to put off consid- - eration of calling an early ses- sion of Parliament to deal, with waterfront labor violence. Mr. Pearson said Monday that the. government was awaiting the outcome of steps taken by the United States government to pemect Canadian lives and ships American waters but was ready to call Parliament before its scheduled Sept. 30 opening to pass legislation to deal with be Canadian aspect of the prob- lem. "We have let them (the Amer- icans). know in no uncertain terms that we expect action to be taken to protect Canadian shipping in American ports," the prime minister said. He did not know what more could have been done "'to make Washington feel this is a very sérious matter. The legislation would put five Canadian maritime unions un- der government trusteeship--a move recommended by Mr, Jus- tice T. G. Norris after his one- man inquiry into a union war between the Seafarers' Interna- tional Union (Ind.) and the Ca- nadian Maritime Union (CLC), The unions are at odds over the manning of ships on the Great Lakes. LATEST INCIDENT - In the latest flareup, the Cana- dian vessel Howard L, Shaw, tied up at Chicago all summer as longshoremen refused to load her, was damaged by a dyna- mite blast early Saturday. The explosion produced diplo- matic tremors in Ottawa and Washington where External Af- fairs Minister Martin 'raised it with U.S, State Secretary Dean Rusk, Mr. Martin then returned here and following a Sunday night conference with Mr. Pear- son and Labor Minister Mac- Eachen the cabinet discussed the situation. U.S, justice de- partment and the FBI are in- vestigating. Meanwhile, U.S. Labor Secre- tary Wirtz and Mr, MacEachen were to meet here Sept, 18 to discuss the problem.

Shaw, stuck in Chicago since April because American allies of the Seafarers' International Union of Canada (Ind.) won't handle the ship, manned by the CLC:-affiliated Canadian Mari- time Union. Mr, Jodoin urged 'vigorous intervention and appropriate ac- tion by the AFL-CIO* to halt this campaign before lives are sacrificed." OFFERS MEETING Mr. Jodoin offered. to meet Mr. Meany or his executive committee "on this very import- ant matter which is creating bad repercussions in my coun- try." | He described the dynamiting of the Howard L, Shaw as a "direct threat to the lives of members of our organization."

The report, titled '""Company Contributions in Canada, bases its findings on a 1948-1958 study of 229 Canadian companies and describes the '"'why, how much Canadian Firms Hike 'Donations To Charity and who' problems of corpor- ate giving. In general, the report says, companies are mainly inter- ested in causes which benefit their shareholders, the company and the people it serves, But there was often a "hu- manitarian element" to corpor- ate giving. The fact many com- panies gave to charities even when times were bad was one example of this, DIVIDENDS By THE CANADIAN PRESS Biltmore Hats Ltd., common 10 cents, class A pref. 25 cents, Oct. 15, record Sept. 17.

More than 52 per cent of the $16,891,000 the 229 companies gave away in 1958 went to health and welfare, 36 per cent to ed- ucation and slightly more than 11.4 per cent to all other causes.

Of the 229 companies, more than 34 supported education more than anything else. Part of the reason was a de- sire to recruit well-educated people as well as highiy-trained specialists.

In any Home Care planning for Canada, the householder is a factor.

In addition the Order maintains the St. John Ambulance Brigade; an enrolled, uni- formed body of men, women and young people trained in these subjects who carry out volun- tary service in the community and are prepar- ed for duty in times of emergency or disaster.

In First Aid classes, individuals are taught such basic care as may be afford- ed by a lay person pending medical treatment in order to save lives, lessen .suffering and prevent further injury. For selected candidates of Nursing courses in many cities, there are Hospital Experience courses arranged in co-operation with the Emergency Measures , Organization that help give the layman an insight into hospital routine and the experience that can be invaluable in time of community need. : These courses in First Aid and Home Nursing in addition to providing educa- tion in health for the public at large, result in a pool of trained personnel who can be of greatest assstance in any serious emergency; at the scene of a disaster, in treatment cntres, in hospitals or at home. teaching of the visiting nurse.
