| She Osharwa Times Published by Canadian Newspapers Limited 86 King St. E., Oshawa, Ontario T. L. Wilson, Publisher ee TUESDAY, OCTOBER 22, 1963--PAGE 6 Erhard Tough, Patient Capable Of Ludwig Erhard, the new chancel- lor of West Germany, seems to have been tagged with the adjective "soft". Certainly he is enormously fat; and Konrad Adenauer, who thought he was immortal' and did not need a successor, tried persis- tently to convince Germans that Erhard was too weak a man to be chief of state. But people should not be deceived either by Erhard's corpulence or Adenauer's animosity ; the Germans haven't been deceived. This is a tough, patient man who now directs West German affairs. For years Adenauer used his own immense prestige to prevent Econ- omics Minister Erhard from suc- ceeding him. In a long series of monstrous public insults, Adenauer tried to provoke Erhard's resigna- tion. Because Erhard stayed in his job, avoided public answers to Ade- nauer's venomous abuse and did not force an open fight, some believed that this proved Erhard's personal weakness. In fact, it proved only his political toughness and sense. An open fight would have started the story that Erhard stabbed Adenauer in the back. Erhard is his party's best vote-getter and he Butter Loss By juggling consumer subsidies price supports and distress sales, Ottawa has achieved a minor and probably temporary success in bringing butter production and consumption close to balance, But there remains a 200-million pound surplus stored in more than 100 warehouses 'across Canada and no indication of encouraging the re- duction in production necessary to dispose of or even substantially re- duce this excess. Agriculture Minister Hays says that he intends to shrink the stored surplus "by selling at a loss if necessary". Commentator C. J. Harris observes that the minister's phrase is merely a euphemism. Since the product was bought from pro- ducers -- with the taxpayers' money of course -- at 64 cents a pound and is sold to consumers for 52 cents, .the Minister really means "'a greater loss if necessary." Nor is that present apparent loss of 12 cents per pound the only cost. Storage charges amount to $4,400,- 000 a year, or more than two cents per pound; then, to rejuvenate the butter when it shows signs of old Decisions always knew that his party knew it, All he 'had to do was to take Adenauer's insults and wait until the Old One was either dead or forced out by a revolt inside the Christian Democratic Union. The revolt came last December. Erhard was tough enough in the Thirties to refuse to join the Nazi party. It cost him his job as direc- tor of a market research institute. In 1947 the occupation authorities made him director of the economic department of the American and' British occupation zones, At a time when Britain and France had stiff rationing of food and consumer goods, he demanded the end of all rationing and price controls in West Germany. Once again he demons- trated his wiliness and toughness. He waited until a Sunday -- June 20, 1948 -- when neither German colleagues nor occupation officials were around to interfere. Then he announced on the radio that he had issued a formal decree reforming West Germany's currency and end- ing consumer rationing and price controls at once. All Germans knew they had to work hard or starve. It was the start of the "economic miracle." . Continues age costs two and one-half cents per pound. There are also costs for administration, bookkeeping, hand- ling, interest and insurance. All told, federal spending for the stabiliza- tion of the price of butter in the year ended March 31, 1963, exceed- ed $42,000,000. Canada's export sale of: butter, although it was a considerable trade from about the turn of the century to the late 1920s, is negligible. Our product is too highly priced; the United Kingdom, for example, is a big butter importer -- from Aus- tralia, New Zealand, Ireland and the countries of Western Europe-- but Britain's buying price is about 45 cents a pound. Even if we were willing to make the sacrifice and offer Canadian butter abroad at the world price, we could not do so; it would be a clear case of dumping and retaliation would be swift and sure. Meanwhile, producers are making money at the 64-cent sup- port price and last year's output reached the all-time record of 360,- 000,000 pounds, about 150,000,- 000 pounds higher than consump- tion. Historic Year For UN Thursday is UN Day, and for the first time in many years its cele- bration can take place in clear at- mosphere of justified hope and con- fidence. pad The UN is 18 years old. It's a significant age. Eighteen years after the League of Nations was founded, its members were heading for the exits. The United Nations, mankind's second try at world or- ganization, marks its 18th birthday with prospective members seeking entry. As Adlai Stevenson, the U.S. delegate has said, the UN seems to thrive on trouble.

Correspondent For The Oshawa Times LONDON -- The color of the tiles on the roof of a bungalow which landscape gardener George Bibby is building at Gil- morton in Leicestershire, has caused so bitter a controversy between him and the local coun- cil that the dispute has been referred to the minister of hous- ing for a ruling. This is one more instance of the extent of which red tape can interfere with the plans of iu- dividuals building homes. YOUR HEALTH Careful Treatment Of Gastric Ulcers By Joseph G. Molner, MD Dear Dr. Molner: Kindly de- scribe treatment for gastric ul- cers. Is it possible to heal them without surgery? I am 50, and also have gas- tritis --A.A.M. That's a big order and it can't all be explained in a few sentences, Here's an outline, though. What is causing the gastritis? Your doctor, after learning something of your eating (or drinking?) habits, won't have much trouble in advising you what to do about that. It will be up to you to follow his in- strucions. The gasric ulcers are an- other problem. They are in the stomach proper, and not in the duodenum. (Both, however, are "peptic ulcers.") What sets gastric ulcers aside as a far greater problem is the frequency with which they prove to be malignant--as high as about one out of five. When gastric ulcers are mal- ignant, they probably were so from the start; it isn't a mat- ter of the ulcers forming first and becoming malignant later. Hence some fine doctors re- move gastric ulcers as soon as they are found. Others preter to defer surgery long enough to try other methods, meantime keeping close watch for any sign of malignancy, at which point, of course, they should be removed at once. There are several ways of watching for this. X-rays show characteristic signs; there is lit- tle or no acid in the stomach; or direct inspection and biopsy, by means of a gastroscope, may be necessary. For eight years, 49-year-old Mr. Bibby and his wife Phyllis had planned their dream homc, regardless of cost, It was to be a large two-bedroomed bunga- low, surrounded by _ sloping lawns, an ornamental lake with two waterfalls and a fountain. Their two sons, both gardeners, were to have helped with the landscaping. The Bibbys bought a site and, eager to start on their new home, sent the plans on to the local council for approval. They were amazed when the following reply came back from The "wait-and-see" treatment includes some or all of the above tests for safety's sake.It involves bland, low - residue foods, high in protein, and fre- quent feeding. DrDugs are used to suppress stomach secretions, control spasm, and reduce ner- yous tension. The patient must give up al- cohol and tobacco. In some cases complete bed rest is de- sirable. The doctor must have the strictest co-operation of the pa- tient, but when he gets this, the ulcers may heal in from two to eight weeks. Then in two or three months X-ray examination should be re- peated (perhaps sooner thaa that.) If the ulcers have dis- appeared, good. If they are smaller, but still there, be cau- tious and careful. If the ulcers haven't de- creased (and most certainly if they are larger) surgery should be considered. i Dear Dr. Molner: Is it pos- sible to have arthritis of the stomach?--S.M.H. No, because arthritis is a con- dition that attacks the joints. If you are having persisent stom- ach pains, the only wise thing is to consult a physician, Don't indulge in guesswork. NOTE TO G.L.G.: I doubt whether "corrective shoes" will do very much for a "heel spur" that is as painful as you de- scribe. If you have any doubts, a short trial will show the an- swer. For such a spur as yours, I suspect that an operation is the answer. Cushioning of the heel often helps. "HELP YOURSELF T0 5) FAST RELIEF night Nerve Food. atique, ot DR.

At his caravan parked on the site of the new house, Mr. Bibby said angrily: "Phyllis and I have not yet got over the shock. As a pro- fessional gardéner for 12 years I ought to know what blends into the surroundings better than most people. It is ridicu- lous for the council to say that green tiles will not look appro- priate, so I intend to fight the ruling. There are several vil- lages close by, far prettier than Gilmorton, where many houses have green tiles and they have brought a pleasing brightness to the locality. My wife and I feel so disgusted by this ridicu- lous ruling that if we do not get green tiling passed, I shall not build our new home." Meanwhile, Mr. Bibby has made an appeal to the ministry of housing, and is anxiously waiting its decision. COUNCIL'S VIEW The county authorities, howe ever, are standing adamant on their ruling as to the color. of tiles Mr. Bibby can use on his house. The ban on green tiles is being enforced by the county planning authority. County plan- ning officer Maurice Pettifor Said: "It is a ruling that any new building should blend into the character and tradition of the surroundings. Gilmorton is now one of the prettiest villages in south Leicestershire. It has a pleasing blend of architecture, and it was felt that to put green tiles on Mr. Bibby's bungalow would be too exotic and not neighborly," Which makes me wonder what would happen if the municipal authorities in. any Canadian town or city started to dictate to home-builders what color of tiles they should use on their houses. TODAY IN HISTORY By THE CANADIAN PRESS Oct. 223,' 1963... . Only a pet dog survived when the steamship Prin- cess Sophia was wrecked with 343 people off the Al- aska coast 45 years ago to- day--in 1918. The 3,200-ton vessel bound from Skagway ran aground on a reef dur- ing a gale, and for days teetered on its rocky perch while heavy seas prevented rescue vessels taking off its passengers. On Oct. 25 the ship slipped off the reef to the bottom after a last mes- sage: "Just time to say goodbye.

OTTAWA REPORT 'Warm Memories Of Le Beau Mark By PATRICK NICHULSON OTTAWA--Enemies and allies in the political field forgot their feuds last week, to travel to- gether to Quebec City to pay their last respects at the funeral of Hon. Mark Drouin. The for- mer Speaker of the Senate was friend to them all, for of Mark Drouin it can be said that, de- spite 20 active years in politics, he had no enemies on Parlia- ment Hill. Everyone who crossed his path here, from the highest to -the humblest, counted him as friend. Some time ago a pun circu- lating on Parliament Hill paid tr.bute to the charm of the Speaker of the Senate. There were rumors that the obsoles- cent Bomarc missile was to be replaced by a more up-to-date rocket in our defence system. "Le Bomare sera remplace' par le rocket."" That led the wags to suggest that, in line with the invasion of politics by hockey stars, "le beau Mark" would be succeeded by Montreal's hockey ace, Rocket Richard as Speaker. There is no exact Eng- lish translation of the French adjective "beau" applied to a man, but its sense accurately described the gay, debonair, successful and good - looking Mark Drouin, so "le beau Mark" became his nickname on Parliament Hill. STARTS AT TOP RUNG Mark Drouin was a longtime Conservative stalwart and leader in.the province of Que- bec, but he had never sat in any legislative. assembly. He had once, in 1949, challenged the mighty Louis St. Laurent in the historic Liberal fortess of Que- bec East; but he was over- whelmed by the biggest major- ity in Canada, polling 7,876 votes to 25,832 for the prime minister. Only 1,395 votes went to the Social Credit party, which now holds that seat. " On Oct. 4, 1957, Mr .Drouin's ability and service to the Con- servative cause were recog- nized by his appointment to the Senate. He arrived on Parlia- ment Hill with the impact and panache of a Bomarc. He was appointed Speaker,. and. 10 days later presided over the. cere- mony at which Queen Elizabeth officially opened Parliament. The slim, trim Mark, looking more youthful than his 53 years, played his role to perfection and was as word-perfect as a skilled actor. In fact he had been deeply interested in ama- teur theatricals; in his impor- tant new role, he did not suffer fromstage fright, and -he re- ceived many congratulations from 'the TV audience of mil- lions, notably from some U.S. colleges where the ceremony was watched on classroom TVs. Senator Drouin was blessed with one too-rare but highly de- sirable attribute. He spoke both French and English fluently, and with no trace of alien accent. This, he once told me, stemmed from his paren- tage of a French-Canadian fa- ther and a mother who spoke little French. So he and his brother and sisters spoke Eng- Ush in their Quebec home; and when they went out to play or to school, they spoke French. Thus, as too few of us can and do, he appreciated the strengths and weaknesses of both sides in our tragic racial breach, which he regretted as our country's greatest current problem. By career he was a success ful lawyer, handling much cor- pofation work and: also defend- ing 22 persons accused Sf mury der, as well as one of those ac- cused in the Gouzenko spy case, By choice he was a 4 supporter of the arts and of sport. He was president. of the old Quebec Aces hockey club and had been a player in his youth. His wide interests were shown by his membership of flying, sailing, golf, x hunting and winter sports clubs. He gave unsparingly of his time to support the arts. He was a founder and president of Le Theatre du Nouveau Monde; and only last year he and Ma- dame Drouin escorted the Mont» real Symphony Orchestra to Russia, Austria and France, the first professional Canadian or- chestra to perform in foreign capitals, _ Quickly becoming an adroit and respected "president" of the Senate, when the day's work was done, he often, charmingly assisted by his wife, played hos- pitable host in his Speaker's chambers to an unusually wide range of guests. When he last visited Parliament Hill this summer, his bilingual comment was: "I'll say this in French-- au revoir, but I may not see you again." Political And Economic Roads Rocky For Italy ROME (AP)-Italy is travel- ling a rocky road, both polit- ically and economically, A_re- surgent Communist party is waiting patiently on the side- lines to take advantage of the situation. 4 For the present the party and its experienced leaders seem content to watch deteriorating "conditions and save their big guns--strikes and riots--for the future, With summer vacations over, the so-called stop-gap govern- ment of Premier Giuseppe Le- one has announced a semi-aus- terity program providing for cutbacks in government spend- ing, reduction of imports, higher taxes on luxury items and other measures. In announcing the program the governent warned that the economy was showing 'symp toms of imbalance which, if not offset, could compromise the continuity of the development of the economy." POLITICS CONFUSED Italian politics was left in a turmoil by the 14-month, left- leaning government of Amintore Fanfani. The government was defeated last April in an elec- tion in which the Communists made an astonishing showing. The Reds polled 25 per cent BY-GONE DAYS 20 YEARS AGO October 22, 1943 The Oshawa Knights of A gas-powered model airplane Columbus held their annual constructed by Billie McArthur Columbus Day dinner in St. Gregory's auditorium. Grand Knight J. L, Riordan presided. Marking the completion of 50 years as a missionary in India, Miss: Kate McLaurin, member of the First Baptist Church, Oshawa, was guest of honor and speaker at the Mission Circle of the church. The local Employment and Selective Service office called for 600 women to work at the Defence Industries plant at Ajax. Rev. George Telford, pastor of St. Andrew's United Church, was named chairman of the Oshawa Public Library Board. He succeeded Harvey Knight, who accepted the position of Public School Inspector for Grenville County. The Oshawa Archery Club opened their new club quarters and target range at Raglan.

Fanfani's Christian Democrats, who have governed Italy .since the Second World half and could a@ice count on half the votes, polled only 38 per cent. The rest of the bal- lots were split among six other parties, During the same 14 months Italy's economic boom began to falter. Prices have been spiral- ing for months. Some Italians, and foreign ob- servers, blame circumstances as much as Fanfani for these price rises and other problems. Full employment, for the first time in Italy's history, and gen- eral prosperity have had infla- tionary effects. Whatever the cause, politic ians have been debating the merits and demerits of Fanfa- ni's experimental 'opening to the left,' the ideological for- mula under which he ran the government with the support of the country's bright pink Social- ist Party. BLAME FANFANI é The formula in general and Fanfani's nationalization of the power industry in particular are widely blamed both for inflation and for a stock market dive that cut values of Italian stocks by 37 per cent since Fanfani took office, The Leone government was formed as a 'post-election "'stop- gap" to handle routine 'business until various parties, partic. ularly the Christian Democrats and Socialists, could settle in- ternal disputes and form seme sort of working coalition. : Five months after the elec. tions, the internal disputes gre no nearer solution and efforts' to resolve them are exhausting politicians who should be at.' tending to national rather than party problems. : There appear to be only two possible solutions to the poiit- ical crisis -- new elections or a' reopening to the left, a new coa- lition government with Sociaiist' support or participation. Elections might result in fur- ther Communist gains at the polis and are considered un- likely, The most usual prediction: A reopening to the left--but with-' out Fanfani. i IDB LOAN.
