She Oshawa Zines Published by Canadian Newspapers Limited 86 King St. E., Oshawa, Ontario T. L. Wilson, Publisher TUESDAY, JUNE 2, 1964----PAGE 6 Justice Minister Must ~ Check For Injustices The reaction of Justice Minister Favreau and Immigration Minister Tremblay to the Toronto case of a man held in jail for 100 days with- out trial is simply not good enough. Mr. Favreau says that he will suggest to provincial attorneys- general that they check to ensure that no one is being held behind bars for long periods without char- ges being laid and pressed before the courts. He also says that steps have been taken to prevent a repe- tition of such immigration adminis- trative delays as accurred in the Toronto case, but he did not give any detail about those steps. Mr. Tremblay also says that steps are being taken -- we do not know what steps -- but he denied sug- gestions that officials in his depart- ment had been guilty of negligence. One can only assume that if the officials were not negligent, they were guilty of deliberate obstruc- tion of justice. The man in the Toronto case was clearly an undesirable alien, but the worst criminal in the land has a right to expect justige In the Tor- onto case justice was grossly delay- ed -- and justice deferred, in the law's own sight, is justice denied. The failings of the immigration department have been repeatedly revealed in recent years. Time and again it has been shown that im- migration regulations can conflict with the common law and that offi- cials of the department may use these regulations in a completely arbitrary manner. There are, too, other departments of government and their appointed bodies which seem to create their own laws_and increasingly tend to reject the accepted processes of law -- the revenue department and its agencies provide such an example, Instead of uttering vague assur- ances, the justice minister should be busy examining the operations of government that deny justice Canada And The OAS The drums are being beaten again for Canadian membership in the Organization of American States. The latest pounding was started by speeches at the recent gathering of the Ontario Young Progressive Conservatives, when Heath MacQuarrie the able mem- ber of Parliament for Queens, P.E.I., and John Harbron, a magazine editor urged that Canada fill the seating waiting for it at the OAS conference table. The advocates of Canadian mem- bership in the OAS stili do not pre- sent a strong case, however. It is true that Canada has dplomatic representatives in all 20 of the Latin-American nations, that our import-export trade. with those na- tions last year amounted to $650 million, and that Canadians have increased their investments in sev- eral Latin-American areas. But we also have diplomatic exchange and - do a lot of business with other blocs -- with the European Common Market, for example, and with the Communist nations. No one suggests that we also join those groupings. The fact that Canada is geograph- ically a part of the Americas does not mean that Canada must also become deeply involved in the poli- tics of all the Americas. We are in- volved in North American defence, and that is as it should be; it is a matter of self-preservation. But in- volvement in the OAS would mean entanglement in many dubious poli- tical situations, and destruction of 'of our possible role as an honest broker or mediator. It is conceivable, for example, that within a period of years the United States and Cuba could come within reach of an un- derstanding. A Canada not com- mitted to the OAS would be in an excellent position as a go-between. What is needed is a less indecisive attitude by the federal government. Both the Diefenbaker and the Pear- son governments have edged to- wards OAS membership and then withdrawn. A clear statement is needed to show where we stand -- and that stand should be on the outside of the OAS but close enough to maintain and extend friendship, trade and good offices. What We Don't Know Many elected and appointed offi- cials take the infuriating attitude that the public is a dolt, that what it doesn't know won't hurt it, and that it will rush about in blind panic at the merest suggestion that every- thing isn't coming up roses. A typical example of this attitude is provided by federal food and drug officials in British Columbia. It seems that the pesticide content of milk in the Vancouver area has re- ached a level high enough to cause worry ; if it goes higher, it could be dangerous. This bit of information, apparently, was supposed to be a professional secret; an attempt was made to hush it up to "prevent public scares". It seems that K. M. Render, the food and drug directorate's top man on the Pacific Coast, voiced his concern before the B.C. Public Insti- tute at a closed meeting; he was quite offended that some of what he said leaked out, and subsequent- ly refused to confirm or deny the She Oshawa Times T, L. WILSON, Publisher C.

THE CAMEL'S HUMP QUEEN'S PARK Liberalism Needs Clear Definition BY DON O'HEARN TORONTO--What is a Lib- eral? Good odds probably would be 500,000 to one that you don't know. There probably are not more than a dozen people in the prov- ince, if that, who have any deep and clear understanding of wht Liberalism is or shoud be. And this dozen apparently, at least on their performances to date, don't include the an- nounced aspirants for leader- ship of the Ontario Liberal party. YOUR HEALTH From listening to them talk about Liberalism you feel they have a genuine concern. . . they want to reform, they want to build a strong new party in line with the best Liberal prin- ciples. But what principles? You hve to feel they really haven't much of a clue. WHY LIBERAL? How does Liberal -- differ from a Conservative or from an NDP'er? Today one would say mainly in that he doesn't like Conser- - vatives or NPD'ers. Growth Of Hair Remains Puzzle By JOSEPH G. MOLNER, MD Dear Dr. Molner:. Why will a woman's hair grow just so long and then no more, unless it is cut? And then it will grow out only as far as before?--E.N. It's not for lack of trying to find out, but the exact reason for hair growth is not known. Some things have been dis- covered about it, and while they may not totally answer your question, they may help. Hair growth in different parts of the body is not at the same rate. Eyebrows are an exam- ple. The longer the hair the slower the growth. Thus when the hair is cut, it grows compara- tively fast, and then slows down when it reaches a certain length. It doesn't stop--but it is so slow that you can't detect the growth. Sometimes hair can be quite brittle, and will break off read- ily. People with that kind of hair, of course, aren't the ones who can have braids reaching down to their waists. Age and the seasons have their effect, too. Hair grows more slowyly as wye get older; it grows more rapidly in hot weather, Dear Dr. Molner: I have been bothered with cystitis for three years, and medication is effec- tive only for a while, then has to be changed. What can be done?--J.C. Cystitis (inflammation of the bladder) is a broad term which includes well over a dozen types. It has a habit, fre- quently, of subsiding and flar- ing up again. The basis of the trouble may be in the bladder or in the kid- neys, or even elsewhere, so I trust that you have had a thor- ough examination of the urin- ary tract. This would include x-rays of the kidneys, and cystoscopic examination of the bladder to permit direct examination for polyps or ulcers. Assuming that this has been done, another step is to have laboratory. cultures made of whatever germ is found, so that the most effective medication can be selected. READER'S VIEWS ALLEGIANCE Dear Sir: Prime Minister 'Pearson has stirred up much controversy with his new flag and anthem. Through all this, one thing bothers me, Why is he only do- ing half a job? Why didn't Mr. Pearson start at the top and dissolve the post of Governor- General and other posts which are representatives of the Queen? Also .in| the Armed Forces, each man has to swear allegi- ance to the Queen. This should be dropped thus giving the in- listed mansand the people of Canada more pride in their country. In this way there should be no loyalty sworn to a foreign power. If Canada alone is not enough for one to swear allegiance to, I'm sure the Queen does not correct the situation. Along the same tive lines, the picture of the Queen on money and coins should be replaced with por- traits of past Prime Ministers and other important men in our history, Last Sunday night, the CBC presented a program called "Canada at War." It was about the landing of Canadian trocgs at Normandy and Dieppe. It reconstruc- . flag, showed the graves of our fall- en men, on whose head stones were their names and inscrib- ed over them, was a cluster of three' maple leaves in some cases, and the others had a single leaf. If this is good enough for our war dead, it is good enough for our country. The cluster of three maple leaves are also found on a but- ton of discharge from the arm- ed forces and also on coins and stamps, thus proving that it is a symbol known and accept- ed throughout Canada. There- fore Mr. Pearson's new flag would be the biggest step in giving our country unity. These people that want the Red Ensign as our flag for Canada, do they know what it stands for? I'm sure it means the same thing in Bermuda, Jamaica, and the Bahamas be- cause they all have the same the Red Ensign. Don't these people want Canada to havye a flag that is truly Canadian, or do we have to still borrow another nation's flag for our own? So let the three maple leaf flag stand alone accompanied by no other, and let us Make a great nation out of this coun- try of ours, not keep it a colony with a foreign flag. LLOYD SONLEY. RR 2, Whitby . Or perhaps because his par- ents were Liberals, or his friends are Liberals. The party has no line of defin- ition. And it needs one, And it is in the interest of our politi- cal health that it should have one. Conservatives don't from this same lack. By the party's very name you know what Conservatism is,. or should be. STRESS ON SECURITY The stress is on security, on doing things the safe, if slow way, on coping with problems when and as they come, rather than stepping out to meet them. The NDP also has quite a strong identity. This is to go far out, to search out problems and meet them, and then look back to see what the resources are to handle them. But Liberalism? Sometimes it goes forward. Sometimes it stays back. It is not committed to ny solid or positive course. It is rough to say, as one op- position member does, that in Ontario now it operates like a scared snake. But it is not too far frém the truth. NEED BIRTH-RIGHT Rather than calling a leader- ship convention this. fall the prty might have been well ad- vised to have first held a birth- right conference. Not @ "policy" conference -- not one of those meetings where there is profound agreement over whether beer should be sold on Sundays -- but a deep roots affair which would devote its whole time to redefining Liberalism itself. Then a new leader might aig known what he was lead- ng. Lacking this perhaps the can- didates themselves can produce some basic beliefs on what Lib- eralism is--they should. suffer OTTAWA REPORT Holiday Traffic Deaths Hit Peak By PATRICK NICHULSUN OTTAWA--The Victoria Day holiday weekend brought a rec- ord number of highway deaths. Sixty - four Canadians were slaughtered in traffic accidents during the three-day holiday; that is three more deaths than the previous record set up in- 1960. Are Canadians te worst and most dangerous drivers in the world? In some districts our drivers certainly do not know the meaning of such phrases as "safety first", "the golden rule" and "road-worthiness.""

REPORT FROM U.K. : Another Dispute Over Water Seen By M. MCINTYRE HOOD Special London (Eng.) Correspondent For The Oshawa Times MANCHESTER, England -- Another battle is looming be- tween the water board of the city corporation of Manchester and the residents of the famous Lake District of Northern Eng- land over the city's plans to draw water supplies from these beautiful lakes. Two years ago, a previous effort to secure water supplies from Ullswater was made by the Manchester Conporation, but the bill to make the plan effective was thrown out by the House of Lords and no further progress was made with the scheme. Now the Manchester Corpora- tion is preparing to make an- other attempt to draw much- needed water supplies from the Lake district. The water com- mittee has approved in principle a new scheme to draw an aver- age of 25 million gallons of water daily direct from Ulis- water into Hawes Water, where it has a filtration and_purifica- tion plant. The committee also approved a scheme for taking an average of 20 million gallons of water a day direct from Lake Windermere. PROTECT AMENITIES The new schemes have been designed' to protect the ameni- ties and beauty of the lake dis- trict. The water will be convey- ed to a new treatment plant at Watchgate on the Hawes Water aqueduct, instead of to a works at. Troutbeck, on the Thirlmere aqueduct, as had been proposed by three firms of .consiltants who drew up the plans. These amendments, the committee considers, would avoid any pos- sible injury to the countryside's amenities, Acting on this decision, the committee has authorized this town clerk, Sir Philip Dingle, to prepare a draft order under the Water Act of 1945 to cover the new proposals, CHAIRMAN EXPLAINS The chairman of the water committee, Councillor G. Hal- stead, said after the meeting: "There may be disappoint- ment in some quarters that we have decided to abstract the water from the lakes rather than from the rivers that flow out of them. But anglers, farm- ers and other people with soun knowledge of these matters wil appreciate that there are sub- stantial reasons why this is pre- ferable and in the best interests of the area, We can assure everyone that there would be no adverse effect on Ullswater, no restriction of access and practically no visible or any other sign that any water was being abstracted. There can rarely have been any scheme to obtain this quantity of water with so very little physical dis- turbance, In the case of Winder- mere, the situation would be similar." Philip Cleave, secretary of the Friends of the Lake Dis- trict, however, does not agree with this. 'We must oppose this whole thing," he said. "This is putting the clock back two years, to February 8, 1962, when the House of Lords rejected Manchester's previous bid to take water from Ullswater." Victoria Day, Britain cele brated its traditional Whit Mon- day holiday. The population of Britain is nearly three times that of Canada; the density of cars on the roads is much higher in Britain. So we might expect the British traffic toll to be at least three times the size of ours, say 192' or even more. Britain, like Canada, mourned a record death roll that happy carefree holiday weekend; but far from it being 192 killed, it was less than half that--just 84. SLUMMING IN OTTAWA Taxpayers in all parts of Can- ada are struggling to pay off the mortgage on their $16,000 homes and to mect payments on the new $498 bedroom suite, They will be interested to hear how. our 'top politicians live. Our prime minister has two official residences provided for him by the taxpayers; a town house in Ottawa, and a sum- mer "cottage" set on a 13-acre estate in the nearby hills. In the past four years, Pub- lic Works Minister Deschatelets has just told Parliament, the taxpayer paid out $24,866.12 for renovations and $11,512.12 for new furniture for that town house. It was purchased and fixed up for $350,000 and furnished for $150,000 12 years ago. These two Ottawa homes for Mr. and Mrs. Prime Minister have so far cost the taxpayers more than $1,000,000.

Recently, at the annual beauty contest of the civil service, he tried his hand at plugging instead of slugging female beauty. Tardif picked three contestants as his choice for win, place and show; but not one of his favorites made it. "'At 'your age, all girls look the same," the corpulent and chagrined MP was told.

Taxes And Jobs Main Topics For Canadians By CANADIAN INSTITUTE of PUBLIC OPINION (World Copyright Reserved) . While many complain that ac- tion in Parliament limps along at a slow pace, the public is showing some concern over a multitude of problems. Topping the list, if citizens took to writ- ing to their members of Parila- ment, is high taxes and how to handle the unemployment situ- ation. Gallup Poll interviewers ask- ed this question: . TODAY IN HISTORY By THE CANADIAN PRESS June 2, 1964... The first Fenian raid on Canada was launched 98 years ago today--in 1866. Led by John O'Neill, about 800 Fenians crossed into Canada near Fort Erie and encainped at Ridgeway, Ont. Eventually, a strong body of Canadian forces pushed them back. The Ca- nadians suffered about 10 killed and 40 wounded. The Fenians lost probably twice a@s mary. 1948--Seven wartime Nazi doctors who experimented on prisoners were hanged at Landsberg prison. 1953 -- Queen Elizabeth was crowned. "If you were writing to your member of Parliament in Ot- tawa about the things you think Parliament should do, . what would you suggest?" A similar question was asked in the United States recently and what came to the top there was taxes, as well as the Civil Rights Bill, Medicare was cited in third place but orily two per- cent of Canadians mentioned need for a good medical plan and for more hospitals, The perennial plea for lower taxes tops the list across Can- ada, with Quebec people pecially in favor of tax cuts. Then comes the unemployment situation -- a need to create more jobs, encourage more in- dustry and investigate the unem- ployment insurance fund. The next most frequently men- tioned areas are: the rising cost of living, the need to increase old age pensions, greater aid to education, the need to live within our budget and cut out wasteful government spending. In a regional break-down, the people of Ontario, nearly four in 10, are least concerned about writing their members of Par- liament and most concerned over our mounting government deficits. ; GIANT GLASS SALE In four years, the Pil Brothers company of Britain has sold about 100,000,000 square feet of its float glass. r oe mail often during the day -- sepsmninmusamnpenenctamenscareerte
