Bhe mn Oshawa Sune Published by Canadian Newspopers Limited Prien 86 King St. E., Oshawa, Ontario T. L. Wilson, Publisher SATURDAY, FEBRUARY 22, 1964--PAGE 6 New University Plans Year-Round The Simon Fraser. University, scheduled to open in Vancouver's Burnaby suburb in 1965, will have three 16-week terms, which means year-round operation. Students will ordinarily attend two terms, but voluntary attendance at three will be possible, thus allowing a student to complete a four-year course in a little less than three years. In this fashion the university can get the maximum use out of its physical plant and at the same time offer some advantage to students by reducing the total time at uni- versity for those capable of absorb- ing the three-term schedule. As the new university's chancellor Gordon Shrum pointed out, under the pre- sent system a graduate student who goes on to a doctorate, follow- ed by post-doctorate research, is about 80 years old before he is in business. In the sciences, the years © before 35 can be highly productive, but they can be spent simply in college preparation for a career. Simon Fraser thus will probably be the first Canadian university operating the year round. But other Canadian universities and colleges, faced with steadily increasing costs and enrolment pressures, are re- viewing their traditional operating procedures. The question of year-round operation is under discussion at. Dalhousie, Mount Allison, the Uni- versity of New Brunswick, Laval, Ottawa and Alberta. Committees are studing the concept at McGill, Sir George Williams, Carleton, Queen's, York. Western Ontario and Mani- toba. The University of Saskatche- wan and the Graduate School of the Operation University of Toronto are at a transitional stage. According to a report by David C. Webb, director of research for the Canadian Foun- dation for Educational Develop- ment, at the University of Saskat- chewan the six-week intersession period, between the end of the second term and the commencement of summer school, has grown 80 rapidly that a large part of the university is virtually operating on a year-round calendar now; it re- quires only a formal decision and relatively minor curriculum adjust- ment to be made before a third term could be introduced. The Uni- versity of -Toronto introduced a year-round calendar system in its Graduate School last year, but de- cided not to place the undergraduate departments on this system at the present time, due to the complexity of the change and the problems of honors courses and staffing, but the situation is under review. The University of Waterloo is undertaking a feasibility study -- with a grant from the Ontario gov- ernment -- to determine whether or not to place the Arts and Science faculty on a work-study year-round calendar similar to that which has been so successful in the Engineer- ing faculty. According to Mr. Webb, early reports indicate that it is en- tirely feasible and it is likely that the university will adopt this pro- gram in the near future. The complexity of the change to year-round operation is clearly ap- parent, but it is questionable if we can any longer afford the leisurely two-term operation with its five- month "holiday" iterruption. Perennial Challenge REV. A. M. BUTLER Cedardale-Southminster United Church Brotherhood Week is a witness to the possibility of true brother- hood on the earth. At this time many voices are heard that tell us that all men are brothers. They are such because they belong to a recognizable family -- the human family. There are differences, of course. Yet, diversified as they are by color, language, custom and spiritual inheritance, they may be said to be one by reason of a com- mon human nature. They are of "one blood". This truth is becoming more and more impressed upon us. However, men do not always behave like brothers. Individually and in their various groups they act more like quarrelsome brothers. Can such ever come "to dwell in unity"? Only by the acquisition of the attitudes that make brother- hood possible. But, how? To acquire the neces- sary attitudes is easier said than done, Indeed one might put up a strong case that human nature has not changed very much since Cain and Abel. This nature is ever with us raising serious problems de- manding solution. One might actually be in danger of pessimism without the possession of some experience, however little, of a transforming power capable of altering the conditions of life. Obviously, what is needed on the part of man is a more constant sub- mission to this power, so that it may be permitted to work more effectively in all the relationships of men. If we believe in this power we can do two things: first, we can | lay ourselves open to it daily; and, secondly, both individually and through the groups to which we belong we can try to learn from each other. Unlimited possibilities for the true brotherhood unfold before men. Danger To The Queen Dr. Raymond Barbeau, a pro- fessor of French literature and an avowed separatist, suggested in a speech at Queen's University this week that Queen Elizabeth would be well advised not to visit Quebec this year, as planned, because of the possibility of an attempt by The Oshawa Times The Oshowo Times combi {established 1871) ond the Chronicle | 863 ers Association. lion ef Circulation and the Ontario Provincial Dailies A i The C i Press in fy 's y entitied to the use of republication oll news despatched in the poper credited to to The Associated Press or Reuters, ond also the tocol news published therein.

Ten, 20 years ago, this would have been a laughable suggestion, but after the violent incidents in Quebec during the past year, it is not funny any more. There is no denying the fact that there are in Quebec today some people -- only a very few, perhaps, but they are there -- who are willing to go to any lengths to promote the cause they claim to believe in. And to these people, the Queen is the chief symbol of everything they oppose. There is not much point in trying to persuade these people that the Queen is powerless to change any- thing, that she is a symbol in spite of herself. They are not open to logical argument. Nor is it any con- solation to know that any attempt to injure the Queen would horrify the great majority of Quebec citi- zens. The fact is that there is a danger, and the Canadian govern- ment must make every effgrt to ensure her safety while she is here. QUEBEC OPINION Tt xésP Haine Twese DREAMS AGouT JUST FALLING APART SPLIT PERSONALITY Ontario Still Blasted On Purchasing Policies EDITORIALS from French - language papers Granby La Voix de l'Est-- Quebec's preferential econ- nomic policy sill bothers Ont- erio. The businessmen and even the government of that province are taking a very dim view of the campaign by Le Conseil d'expansion eco- nomique and the decision of several Quebec government agencies to favor the indus- tries and business firms of our province... . Listening to opinions ema- nating from the neighbor province, one would get the impression that Quebec. peo- ple haven't the right to buy at home and to encourage their own businesses. Ontario, headed by its premier, in effect denies us the right to do what it has been doing for more than a century. For we must not be fooled. The Ont- ario Trade Crusade, even if it does not commit people to buy in Ontario, is certainly aimed at this objective. Ont- ario is heavily industrial and in a position to supply not only its own market but those of other provinces. Its policy amounts to this: Come set up shop among us, it says to industrialists, and it will be easy for you to get markets in other provinces. Well, contrary to what Mr. Robarts pretends, Quebec is not fragmenting the Canadian economy by pracising a pre- ferenial policy. It is simply PARAGRAPHICAL WISDOM The man who rushed to the eheriff's- office and asked to be put in jail for shooting his wife must have wounded her only slightly. Overheard: "Not only am I in a rat race, but the heck of it is that I'm losing it." The only drug that would stop @ person from smoking would be one that would greatly strengthen. the will power. A suicide left a note saying living was a waste of time. We'd think a dead man wastes more time than a five one. helping to cnsure the growth of its economy and thus to make the general economy of the courtry more solid. This encouragement to its indus- tries will allow them to de- velop and raise the level of employment. . . . (Feb. 11) Montreal Le Devoir--. . .. The Greek majority accepted only grudgingly, and as a sort of makeshift, the straitjack- eted independence that was bestowed upon Cyprus. It was notably forbidden to associate itself in any way with another state, which seemed to put an end to the old dream of Enosis. But the Greek Cyp- riots have never truly re- mouced this dream, Presi- dent Makarios least of all... . It must be noted that inde- pendence has really satisfied neither of the two communi- ties. There are no Cypriots pure and simple, there is no Cypriot nationalism, rather two profoundly distinct na- tional communities, truly strangers to each other, both, and especially the Greek, looking toward the mother country. The Zurich and Lon- don agreements gave birth artificially to an independent state that has no soul, no national content; they im- posed a system theoretically designed to protect the Turk- ish minority in the first place but the system makes Cyprus a sort of international ward and, put to the test, it has demonstrated that it provides none of the advantages in- tended but a full measure of fearful disadvantages. . . . It is in order to ask whether the only solution would not reside in a complete separa- tion of the communities, al- lowing each to attach itself freely to its mother country; partition of the island, in other words, between Greece and Turkey. The international community would not lose much in the disappearance of the republic of Cyprus, @ poor, artificial state and per- manent source of crisis. . .. Jean-Marc Leger. (Feb. 12). Sherbrooke La Tribune -- The police force that Great Britain is trying to organize to re-estublish order in Cyprus deviates noticeably from the trend of recent years. It even amounts ts a precedent of BY-GONE DAYS 40 YEARS AGO Feb. 22, 1924 Major Crowles of the Ontario Department of Education open- ed the new school at Pickering. Sleighing parties to and from skating rinks were favorites for entertainment of district young people. Announcement was made that the War Memorial Committee had chosen a design made by Alfred Howell, director of art at the Toronto Central Techni- cal School. The plan was to use selected stones from all the battlefields into the structure. Oshawa Post Office staff spent two weeks distributing seven tons of mail order cata- logues. A cheque was found by Capt. C. A. Mason in the pipes of St. George's Anglican Church organ which. had been lost for 10 years. Gordon Hutton, Hamilton architect, told the Rotary Club that Centre Street Public School was the best in the province. Rev. A. M. Irwin accepted the invitation to remain as pas- tor of King Street Methodist Church for the sixth year. On the local market butter was selling at 45 cents a pound, eggs 50 cents a dozen and chick- ens at 35 cents a pound. Engineer Smith expressed his views on the site of the pro- posed new water tower and stated that the suggested Col- lege Hill location was unsuitable and in his opinion the only place for it was on the high school grounds. Local grocers were trying to sell their stocks of oleomarga- rine. This product had been used for war measures and the government had now banned the use of it as of March 1, 1924. Announcement was made that Oshawa had received a charter from the Ontario Municipal Board allowing the town to be- come officially a city at noon on March 8, 1924. which the consequences are difficult to foresee. Since its foundation the United Nations has estab- lished the practice of acting through an international. po- lice force*to maintain order in certain trouble spots around the globe. The first attempt of this kind, admittedly im- perfect, was made on the oc- casion of the Korean War. was improved and forces truly international have functioned in The Congo and other places For explicable: reasons the British do not want a UN con- tingent in Cyprus; they pre- fer a contingent waving the NATO banner. The latter would probably, in effect, be controlled by London and would risk being nothing but an instrument of British pol- icy. In these conditions, Can- ada's participation in such a force seems to us scarcely to be recommended, especially if the Canadians sent to Cyp- rus are combat troops. Prime Minister Pearson will have to give a clear explana- tion of the reasons that made him yield to the pressures exerted upon him by the Brit- ish prime minister, otherwise Canadians will hardly be able to understand his attitude. (Feb. 13) Montreal La Presse -- Our federal government has the soul of a Boy Scout. Far be it from me to decry scouting. It has done great things for youth and given society some fine citizens. But scouting is an imperfect doctrine when applied to foreign policy. So imperfect that it can even be dangerous. Our federal government is never so happy as when it has a chance to get involved in conflicts that are. none of its business. Quiet spells get on its nerves... . It walks about with its hands in its pockets. "You wouldn't have a little conflict somewhere? That would keep my hands and mind busy. I would' have the feeling of being useful and I would have good conscience." Thus, when Sir Alexander Douglas-Home, prime minis- ter of Great Britain, arrived in Ottawa with his hands full of a hot conflict called Cyprus, excitement was at a fever pitch. At least, a disctraction! And a useful distraction! Of the kind that provides a lot of satisfaction. A Great Deed! And in full obscurity, But Canada has no business over there, Canada has undertaken no engagement in respect of Cyprus. .. . Canada has no cultural or linguistic affinities with these peoples. We do not know them, they do not know us other than through this abstract association that constitutes be Commonwealth. .. . If Canada's participation were requested in the name of the United Nations, our opposition would be less justi- fiable. Canada's participation in peace-keeping missions has always been invited in the mame of the UN. This was notably the case in Indochina. You would not have to go back far to recall the pro- posals of Messrs. Pearson and Martin for an international police force acting under UN auspices. . . --Guy Cormier.. (Feb. 13) UNITED KINGDOM OPINION Conservaiives Worried © As Election Approaches By M. McINTYRE HOOD quiet is beginning to make itself felt in the rank and file of the Conservative party. They are beginning to realize that time is running out on them, and that the day of reckoning, when they will have to go the polls in a general election, is--relentlessly creeping nearer. And at the same time, they are dismayed that the impact on the party's fortunes of the new prime min- ister, Sir Alec Douglas-Home, is not winning back the support of the public to the extent for which they had hoped when they acclaimed him as Harold Mac- millan's successor. It is true that there has been gome improvement in_ the morale and outlook of the Tory party. Sir Alec has met with some success in instilling it with new vigor, but only to a modest extent. The Conservatives are in better fettle for a fight than they were before Mr. Macmillan resigned the leadership, but time is running short, and the gains they have made are not YOUR INCOME TAX significant enough to point to assured success in a general election. There has been little in the recent by-election results, and in the public opinion poils to create the impression of any definite swing back to the Con- servative party. Morale in the constituency parties un- doubtedly improved, but in the higher ranks of the party there is still an aura of defeatism which does not augur well for the future. What the party, and the pub- lic, too, are waiting for is some- thing dramatic, something of special significance that will shake the still wavering Con- servatives out of their com- placency, and frankly, I can see little sign of any such de- velopment in the foreseeable futuré. Sir Alec Douglas-Home is doing a competent enough job as prime minister, but some- thing more than that is needed to set the Tory victory bells ringing when election time comes. ON FIXED PRICES The Daily Express is con- tinuing its all-out campaign against the proposed govern- Marriage Affects Husband's Returns By WILLIAM C. HALL B. Comm., CA QUESTION: I was married on November 16, 1963. A friend re- cently indicated that tax sav- ings were possible even though my wife worked throughout 1963 and earned in excess of $1,000. Could you please explain? ANSWER: In the preparation of your 1963 -tax return you would claim a basic personal exemption of $1,000 as well as a married exemption of $1,250 less your wife's income subsequent to marriage. That is, if your wife's income in 1963, was $3,600 of which $450 was earned after marriage, you could claim total personal exemptions of $1,800. Your wife, of course, would be required to file a return report- ing $3,600 income. QUESTION: My 1963 T4 state- ment of remuneration indicates an amount of $360 as a taxable benefit. Could you please ex- plain? ANSWER: This amount could represent the value of any of the following: board and lodg- ing, personal use of employer's automobile, gifts, holiday trip(s), rent-free housing. You are required to add this mount to your income in the preparation of your 1963 tax re- turn, es QUESTION: Iwas an em- ployer in 1963. An employee who received total wages of $450 has requested a T4 statement of re- muneration; no tax was with- held from his wages. A second employee has also requested a 4 statement; he _ received wages amounting to $225 from which $25 tax was withheld and remitted, Is it necessary for me to sup ply a statement in such case? ANSWER: Yes. You are re- quired to prepare and deliver two properly completed copies of form T4 Supplementary to each employee who received more than $250 remuneration from you in 1963, Furthermore, this provision applies to em- ployees who received less than $250 and tax deductions were withheld. The forms may be delivered in person or they may be sent to the employee's last known ad- dress. This should be done on or before the last day of February in each year for remuneration paid in respect of the preceding TODAY IN HISTORY By THE CANADIAN PRESS Feb. 22, 1964... The "five-and-ten-cent" store concept of business was launched 85 years ago today--in 1879--when Frank W. Woolworth, after work- ing as a clerk in various stores, opened the first of what 'was to become 'he Woolworth chain. At his death in 1919, Woolworth's company had grown to 1,000 stores and he had accumu- lated a personal fortune worth millions. Hundreds of new stores continued to be added to the Woolworth chain after his death, 1713 -- Edward Cornwal- lis, governor of Nova Scotia 1749-52, was born. 1929--The Canadian par liament ratified the Kellogg- Briand anti-yar pact. @ RESIDENT PARTNERS Burt R.

Weters, C.A. 4 QUESTION:3 have noticed many advertisements recently Stating that I can save income tax by making payments into a retirement savings plan. Could you please explain? ANSWER: The Income Tax Act permits an individual to de- duct amounts paid into a regis- tered retirement savings plan. The more significant features of a plan and available deduc- tions are as follows: (a) The plan must be regis. tered with the Department of National Revenue; (b) Deductions can be claim- ed for premiums paid during a calendar year or within 60 days after the end of the year. (c) Deductions are permitted in computing net income; de- ductible amounts, however, are determined by earned income; (d) Available deductions vary according to whether an indi- oa ie, or is not, a member of a registered employees' - sion fund, "pi ons Tax savings are possible to the extent that a contributor's tax rate is lower in the year proceeds are received than when contributions are made. Further savings result from the fact that earnings of the plan are. exempt from tax as com- pared to the taxability of a do- it-yourself investment program. GALLUP POLL ment bill to abolish resale price maintenance, or, price fixing. It is finding little support from any other segments of the press, and even its own public opinion poll shows that it has not swung the majority of the public behind its campaign. On the question of the pro- posed bill, the Express poll shows 43 per cent in favor of the government's bill, 31 per . cent against and 26 per cent un- decided. Strange to say, the proportion is almost exactly the same when broken down by political cao With the Tory voters, the poll is 45 per cent for, 30 per cent against and 25 per cent undecided. The Labor voters are 4214 per rs for, 31% per cent against ani r cent undecided. And of the Piberals voting, 43 per cent were in favor, 35 per cent against and 22 per cent undecided. This is a rather significant poll, in that it shows pretty well how the parties line up official- ly. Some Conservatives ate in opposition to the bill, most of the Labor members support it, and the same is true of the Lib- erals. The key to the bill is the extent of the safeguards to small shopkeepers which are in- cluded in it. If these are suf- ficiently effective, the opposition parties in the Commons will all support it -- regardless of the venemous campaign against it by the Daily Exoress, BRAIN DRAIN ISSUE The Labor party leadership is making a big issue out of the fact that some of Britain's lead- ing scientists are going to the United States, attracted there not only by higher salaries, but also by the better research facil- ities which are offered there. The opposition is blaming this on the government, claiming that it is beng parsimonious in assisting the universities to pro- vide adequate and necessary re- search equipment and facilities. Quite independent of this on- position attack on recent ap- pointment of British scientists to the United States, comes the report of an independent survey, conducted by the Association of University Teachers, into the drain on Britain's scientific brains. This survey was made prior to the recent furore over the impending departure for the United. States of some 10 of Britain's outstanding scientists. The national survey takes a more objective look at the pic- ture. It shows that over 160 academics a year are moving out of Britain's universities to take up posts overseas, and about 60 per cent of these are going to the United States. The survey shows that last year, four professors, four read- ers, three senior lecturers, 24 lecturers and seven assistant lecturers left Britain to take posts in the United States. An- other 71 members of academie staffs in the universities left to take up positions in other over- seas countries, mostly in the Commonwealth.
