She Oshawa Times Published by Canadian Newspapers Limited 86 King St. E., Oshawa, Ontario T. L. Wilson, Publisher SATURDAY, MAY 30, 1964--PAGE 6 Links Seen In Quebec, Canadian Nationalism Two matters that are of great concern across Canada today, and that most of us see as quite unre- lated, are foreign ownership in Canadian business and Quebec's emerging nationalism. But as Tor- onto industrialist W. M. Kelly ex- plained in a speech in Vancouver to a group of American businessmen, the two problems are really not dissimilar. It is a point of view that could help most' Canadians to a better understanding of both prob- lems. With its population, vast area and small the vice-president of Consumer's Gas told the visitors, Canada is "an economic extra- vagance" and outsiders may wonder why we persist in it. "There is perhaps no realistic answer," Mr. Kelly said. "It is simply that we like being Canadians. We wish to maintain Canada even if it is a little odd and a little costly. It is some- thing sensed rather than reasoned, but the idea has been around for a long time." Canadians acknowledge that for- eign investment has been essential and beneficial, but it is not un- reasonable of them to ask whether policies of foreign-owned companies are really in the best interests of Canada. Do parent companies ship in goods that could be produced here? Do parent firms handle re- search that could be done here? Do they unfairly deny export bus- iness to Canadian subsidiaries?. On the other hand, said Mr. Kelly, reasonable Canadians will concede Whom God By REV. H. A. MELLOW Northminster United Church Every clergyman must have serious thought when in the wed- ding ceremony he says, "Those whom God hath joined together let not man put asunder!" It is not merely anxiety that these two shall "cleave the one to the other", but the fear that God may have had all too little to do with joining them together. "If God is to have His place in this most important covenanting cer- tain conditions must be fulfilled. The couple will have more than an unreasoning response to the ele- mental 'mating impulse"; more than a sophisticated briefing from some etiquette authority, and the glamourous way to parade up the centre aisle; more than having acquired authoritatively, or other- wise, knowledge of what are called "facts of life'. There is required some elementary psychology in order to understand what "makes one tick"; some domestic skills; some business training with ability to establish, and use, a minimum budget; and, most of all, an ap- preciation of the difference be- tween "romance" and "love", re- cognizing that "love" is a quality within oneself, 'is patient and kind, not irritable... not seeking own", always giving out in good- willing. It was heartening to read what Alderman Frank Clifton told Tor- onto City Council two weeks ago. He referred to "emotionally dis- turbed" children in Toronto. His She Osharwn Times T. L.

Even under Canadian ownership, companies might buy, U.S. research services or components, and they would be able to export only on the basis of competitive costs. To the degree that U.S. firms re- present such a large part of our total industrial complex, said Mr. Kelly, they perhaps deny the auton- omy and statehood we desire. But to deny their values to our economy or threaten to inhibit them is to mislead the problem -- a principle that must also apply to Quebec. "What Canadians feel, rational -or not, about the need to maintain our sense of identity on the North American continent,' Mr. Kelly concluded, "Quebec feels just as strongly or more so about its own need to maintain a separate ident- ity within Canada. In different ways, Canada as a whole (includ- ing Quebec) and Quebec by itself are in need of what psychologists call a self-image . . . The two problems are so very similar -- how to ach- jeve a healthier state of economic freedom while remaining Canadian, and how to achieve a healthier state of economic freedom while remain- ing a Quebecer. If there is some- thing to be understood about Can- ada today, it is that Canadians by and large, are putting serious and hopeful effort into working out solutions to the problems of fitting sense of identify and economic fact together." Hath Joined advice was, 'It seems a valid sug- gestion that . . . treatment should begin before families that may pro- duce youth with problems are ever established." It has always appeared ridiculous that in a society which is so careful to train with meticulous care for almost every responsibility in life should neglect, as we do, this greatest of all responsibilities -- bringing into the world and fashion- ing the lives of human beings. We would do well in our city to establish some authority to for- mulate a system whereby this help and training can be given. It has been, and remains, a blight on our times that by merely giving a few facts and paying a fee, almost any- one can begin this most strategic institution, the home. One is promp- ted to suggest that we would do well to make 'divorce easier" and "marriage harder"! Other Editors' Views MODERATION (Regina Leader-Post. It is time that the forces of reason and moderation played a more active part. How can: individuals in this cate- gory in English-speaking Canada play such a more active role? They can do-so by personally taking to task individuals who preach the doc- trine that if French Canadians don't like Canada they can get out. They can refrain from joining organiza- tions which are anti-Quebec in their tendencies. They can ignore poli- ticians who try to turn the present situation to their own selfish poli- ical advantage, and support those who are trying to heal the differ- ences which divide our nation. Bible Thought "For every house is builded by some man: but he that built all things is God" Hebrews 3:4, An all of man's learning he has for the most part failed to properly recognize that he is building on an- othet's property. Some of it may be man's work, but it is still God's world. 'Power. belongeth to God." "He created the: Heaven and the Earth." QUEBEC OPINION sscnimtiinlataianieaiaa at BACK SEAT DRIVER Pearson Earns Praise For Flag Issue Action This is a selection of edi- torials on current topics, translated from the French- language press of Canada. Quebec L'Action After nourishing quarrels among at least two generations of Cana- dians and thus retarding the awakening of a national con- science, the insoluble problam of Canada's flag and anthem will be solved in a_ few weeks... , The extinction of a burning eause of division between Ca- nadians will not be completed without difficulty. The import- tant thing is that the Gordian knot of Canadian -politics has finally been cut. In this respect, the new Mr. Pearson is a surprise. The diplomat, the intellectual, the temporizer, the indecisive man shows himself to be the man of action that we scarce- lysuspected he could be. In the House of Commons he has tossed aside dilatory schemes. Reference to a parliamentary committee was averted. Flags and anthems never emerge alive from little committee squabbles. Nor is a referen- dum any more acceptable in the eyes of .Prime Minister Pearson. The government will take its responsibilities, even at the price of being beaten in the House of Commons, and then let itself be judged at the next election. In short, he has shown de- termination and courage, and the quality our English-speak- ing compatriots call leader- ship. If the man of reflection whom Canadians admired in Mr. Pearson at the same time really turns out to be a leader, this could be all to the better for Canada, --Lorenzo Pare.

(May 22) Moncton L'Evangeline -- After the Second World War pressure began to make itself felt in favor of a distinctive Canadian flag. Ties with the Commonwealth have been loosened little by little to the point where today, on the eve of the Confederation centen- ary, Canadian participation in th Commonwealth is only a formality, Ties with France are even more remote. For several years govern- ments have been preaching true Canadianism. Mr. Dief- enbaker, the present Opposi- QUEEN'S PARK tion leader, made himself an apostle of Canadianism while in power, without however touching the flag question. To- day this same apostle upholds the Red Ensign as a distinc- tive flag for Canada. It passes all undershtanding. For a century people have been unable to agree on a flag for Canada. Confederation is in danger todey because people have been afraid to walk solely as Canadians, in- stead of as English-Canadians or French-Canadians. There are moments when it is essen- tial to make distinctions but when it is the interest of the whole country that is involved, we must call ourselves quite simply Canadians and respect the rights of the two founding ethnic groups. Let us be realists. The time has arrived to settle the flag issue. Why divide Canada on a question of taste? There are so many other more serious problems awaiting us. Let us settle the problem of a Cana- dian flag without delay and tackle the others. The ques- tion of a national plebiscite to decide our flag is just another manoeuvre to prolong our at- tachment to the Common- wealth. The era of sentimen- talism is past. Let us take our courage in our hands and be realists. -- Bernard Poirier. (May 22) Boards' Protests To Delay Results BY DON O'HEARN TORONTO -- The struggle to get grade 13 results out earlier continues. For years now the fight has been going on. Students want the results earlier so they can make their plans for college. The department of education has tried. But not much head- way is made. Last year there was optimism. The exam papers are marked by teachers. And the depart- ment arranged that the teach- ers start marking earlier. But this year there has been another road block. Local school boards have protested, They say the teachers were, in effect, drawing double pay. They are paid until the end of June by the boards. And they drew pay from the government from June 15, The boards ignore the fact that the teachers are, in effect, working double time. They have to complete their regular work along with the marking. And they do this in the evenings. So it looks like later than ever this year. This is the great age of auto- mation, but the human element can still foul things up, particu- larly those very human school boards. AUTO INSURANCE Accident coverage for every- body in an automobile mishap some no matter who is at fault? It seems we are heading for this The Liberals proposed such all - inclusive coverage in its election platform. And the NDP has also endorsed it. Now the government has or- dered an' inquiry, which will study the need and the possibil- ities. If this study shows it is prac- tical the coverage would first apply to the government's un- satisfied judgment fund. It would be paid for by an in- crease in the $20 fce for un- insured drivers. Then it would be expected that st andard auto policies would follow along. NO. FLAGS There's a lot of flag talk across the coyntry these days, but not here. The attitude towards flags at the moment is--you can't win, no matter what you say about them. Actually, from time to' time there has been some thought of having an Ontario flag. Nova Scotia, Quebec, Prince Edward Island and British Col- umbia all have their own stand- ards. ~ And some people have done work on developing one for On- tario. But they aren't talking about it at the moment. They feel this would not be the right time to mention it. ' OSHAWA SHOPPING CENTRE @ RESIDENT PARTNERS Burt R. Waters, C.A. Hon. J. W.

UNITED KINGDOM OPINION Election Date Disturbs Political Parley Plans By M. McINTYRE HOOD Special London (Eng.) Correspondent For The Oshawa Times LONDON -- One of the ef- fects of the Prime minister's announcement that the :general election will be held in Octo- ber is that it has completely upset all the' plans and arrangements for the three national conferences which are important events in the Brit- ish political scene at that time of each year. Because of the election date, the annual Conservative Party conference, which was sched- uled to take place at Blackpool in October, has been cancelled. This has been officially an- nounced by the . Conservative Central Office. No mention: is made, how- ever, of an abbreviated party gathering being held as soon as possible after the general elec- tion, as was done in 1959. On that occasion, however, the Tory conference took the form of a great victory celebration rally. This year, however, it would hardly be in order for the Conservatives to arrange for such a conference to be held until the results are known. It might have to be more in the form of a dismal _post- mortem rather than a victory rally, so nothing is being said regarding any alternative meet- 'ing to the conference which has been cancelled. The other parties are falling very much in line with what the Tories have decided to do, so far as their conferences are concerned. The Labor party conference, usually lasting a week, which was to have been held from September 28 to Octo- ber 3, is being cancelled. It was also to have been helt in Black- pool. The Socialists, bined: are not going 'to forego the oppor- tunity of having a big rally in advance of the election date. Plans are being considered for staging a two-day rally about the end of September, either in London or Blackpool, as a big last-minute effort to whip up the forces of Labor to make an all-out bid for victory in the election. The Liberal National Assem- b'y, also scheduled for Black- pool in late September, has also been cancelled. Like the Labor party,. however, the Liberals plan a pre-election get-together on a scale somewhat less pre- tentious than the annual as- sembly. It will hold a special rally in London early in Sep- tember, and allow the annual national gathering to go .by default. The only complaints regard- ing these decisions by the three political parties are coming BY-GONE DAYS 40 YEARS AGO May 30, 1924 Dr. T. W. G. McKay was elected to the executive of the Ontario Health Officers' Asso- ciation at the annual meeting held in Toronto. Oshawa stood seventh in the Province of Ontario in build- ing valued at $152,195 for April. Statistics showed that Osh awa had 2,873 telephones in- stalled within the city limits. Of this number, 2,076 were resi- dence phones and 797 business. A stone arrived from Greece for the Oshawa War Memorial. The bluish slab of marble was brought here by a Greek im- migrant. Gordon D. Conant, who was erecting a boys' clubhouse at the lake, received word that Lake Ontario had risen four inches in the previous 18 days. Fruit trees .in, the district were just coming into bud, due to the cold wet spring. The ladies of the Oshawa Golf Club held their official opening. Among those attend- ing were, Mrs. W. R. Geikie, Mrs. F, W. Bull, Mrs. F. C Cowan, Mrs. E. Hodgkins, Mrs. G. W. McLaughlin, Miss Frank- ish and Mrs. H. E. Smith. A new pasteurizing plant was installed at the Maple Leaf Dairy on King street west, oper- ated by Lambert Bros. and Scott. H. E. Duncan assumed his duties as the new manager of the Canadian Bankof Com- merce. Mrs. F. W. Cowan, president of the Red Cross Society, an- nounced the opening of the On- tario Reformer campaign for funds for giving needy children of the city a holiday at the Red Cross Cottage at the lake. Announcement was made that the $50,000 which had been in- cluded in the federal estimates for Oshawa harbor, would be spent this year. from Biackpool,. sbd ernment is having Tek blame for depriving this this 'Lan: cashire sea-coast resort of three conferences which would have -- brought thousands of ne to the community, and have made September and Oc- > tober highly profitable months for the hoteliers, restaurants and merchants generally. But on the whole, Blackpool is tak- ing this loss philisophically, be- cause the there realize that with an election in mid- October, it would be folly for the political parties to prog their resources and efforts in conferences which as a rule accentuate the differences in policy within each party rather than the things on which they are united. WANTS MORE SUMMITS Mr. Wilson is making a bold bid to win electoral support by his visit to Moscow for a meet- ing with Mr. Khrushchev early next month. He is trying to create the image of a man who © is going to be the next prime minister getting down to talks with the Russian leader before he even takes over the office to which he aspires, One of the arguments that Mr. Wilson is using in justify- ing his trip to Moscow is that there are too few top-level con- tracts between the leaders of the west and the man who rules in the Kremlin. He intends to place before Mr. Khrushchev the idea that annual summit meetings between the heads of the leading countries should be organized. In this, Mr. Wilson is taking a line opposite to that 'of the British government and_ its wesiern aiuico, The obstacle in the way of holding more fre- quent, summit meetings has been the reluctance of Western leaders to go to a summit meeting unless there were at least réasonable prospects of successful negotiations. The West has always been fearful that a failure at a summit con- ference might lead to a worsen- ing of the tensions between East and West. Mr. Wilson, however, argues that an annual summit meet- ing, perhaps at the United Nations Organization general assembly meeting in New York, would cut the risk of failure by taking some of the tension out of the summit procedings. In his Moscow talks, Mr. Wilson hopes to find out' what Mr. Khrushchev thinks of possible new disarmament movés. He also says he wishes to assess the future importance of the changed mood brought about by Russia's split with Red China.
