THE LON | need G LINE Militia To Face Barbering Ordeal OTTAWA (CP) -- Associate Defence Minister Lucien Cardin is getting set to carry out the biggest shakeup of the 51,000- member militia in a decade. One of the pieces of informa- tion sparring him on, inform- ants say, is the discovery by the committee looking into militia . organization that some reserve army units comprise no more than two officers and six men-- complete with drill hall and mess. | The committee is headed by] Brig, Earle R.

Mr. Cardin is expected to or- der, before the end of the sum-|have," says acting Mayor Hay- mer, the amalgamation of many militia units. There are, for example, 26 re- serve tank regiments though the regular army has only four tank regiments, There are 35 re- serve artillery regiments. By KEN SMITH Canadian Press Business Editor Few industries have shown as much 'strength during Canada's current economic. expansion as the car makers, and the men who make auto plants tick see no reason why their growth should slacken. Vehicle production has leaped from one record to another dur- ing the last 2% years, causing some economists to ask how auch higher it can rise before toppling. The top auto executives, how- ever, are committing them- selvés and their companies to; bigger things in the immediate future, E, H. Walker, 'president of General Motors of Canada, pre- dicts that car and truck pro- duction will total 830,000 units} in 1970, compared with the pres- ent record of 633,000 built last year. GM recently announced plans to spend $120,000,000 during the next two years on expansion-- a vote of confidence in the fu- ture, Mr. Walker says. CERTAIN OF DEMAND Carl Scott, president of Ford of Canada, says the demand for ears in the near future is as inevitable as the need for uni- versities. "No one questions that we'll the universities. The youths who will need them are in high schools now and we can see that need. "But they are the very same people who will be buying cars in a few years, so the demand will be there, although it may fluctuate a bit year by year." E. K. Brownridge, president of American Motors (Canada) Ltd., takes sharp issue with the economists who express doubts about the future. | "This is part and parcel of the country's growth, and it's just as inevitable," he says. "It's obvious that people have a lot more faith in the future of their country than many econ- omists." Strangely enough, the very prosperity). that has accom- panied the sharp rise in car sales has brought some prob- lems to the cities most depend- ent on the industry. In Oshawa, centre of GM's giant operations, steady growth Ito a population of 70,000 from less than 50,000 in 1954 has brought expansion pains. INEED SCHOOLS "Right now we know we'll need two new high schools to add to the four we already have." 'He also mentioned in an in- terview the trouble that can ac- company some transient work- ers who move in with the first word of improving auto busi- ness. "Now me, most of the people who come here to work at GM, or any other plant, are fine citiz- ens and we're proud of them. "But some--let's face it--are drifters with no foots and they can cause trouble and expense for the city." Oakville, Ont.,' where Ford had its assembly operations, had to pass through the transi- tion from a residential town to an industrial community when Ford moved in 11 years ago--a transition that despite early fears, apparently has been com- pletely successful. Several people now are de- manding, however, that more low-cost housing be put up so Ford workers living in neigh- boring communities can move there. Windsor, Ont., where Chrysler Canada Ltd. and another Ford works are located, also is suf- fering growing pains, although a general spurt in its economy in recent years is at least as important a factor there as the auto industry. don't misunderstand ORONO (Staff) -- Indianapolis Star A.

During the tourist season, a count will be kept on numbers of motorists going into various the newspaper concludes there is a strong dash of Anglophilia in the legion's determination to retain the old Red Ensign. But legion members had to remember that French-speak- ing Canadians also needed some kind of symbol close to their hearts.

FOSTERS PRIDE The Times of Hartford, Conn., suggests it would be a good thing for Canada to have a new banner to help foster a spirit of national pride.

Clifford Sifton, chairman of the board of the Regina Leader- Post and the Saskatoon Star- Phoenix, told the 136 IPI dele- gates gathered in this Turkish' city that individual Canadian newspapers pay expenses of teachers selected to attend courses at Carleton University's Journalim School in Ottawa. The teachers then return home equipped to direct daily studies of pewspapers in class- rooms. ; "The teachers are also en- couraged to pass on these in- structions to other teachers," Sifton said. Sifton, chairman of PIP's Ca- nadian section, said the project, in its third year, is sponsored by the Canadian Daily Newspa- per Publishers Association. It as been highly successful, he said. South Arabia's major occupa- tion is agriculture, but only about one per cent of the land is INDIAN CLAIMS arable because rain is sparse. Not Enough Cash States Director WINNIPEG (CP) -- Wilfred Pelletier, executive director of the national Indian Council of Canada, says there isn't enough money in the country to settle Indians' claims against the white man. He made the comment in an interview while about 125 In- dians discussed in groups be- hind closed doors the federal Indian claims bill given first reading in Parliament last De- cember. He said Indians from time to time during the last 100 years have pressed for a claims act but "to tell the truth I don't think there's enough money in Canada to settle our claims." The United States has had such an act for about 100 years, he said. Many claims 'had been submitted, but only 18 settled, Canada's bill calls for estab- lishment of a five-man Indian claims commission to consider claims that the Crown: --Took land from the Indian without agreeing to compen- Sate for it or disposed of land set apart for Indians without compensating Indians or com- pensating them adequately; --Improperly used money it held for Indians; --Failed to discharge any ob- ligation to Indians arising un- der any treaty, agreement or undertaking; --Failed to act fairly in deal- ings not related to lands and caused injury to Indians. Mr. Pelletier said the three- day claims conference which opened here Wednesday is not aimed at drawing up recom- mendations, He said any dis- sions in the closed groups may or may not be made public. The council's job was to give the delegates from as far east as New Brunswick and west as British Columbia a clearer pic- ture of the bill. DOESN'T SAY WHEN While Mr. Pelletier avoided giving his own or other people's opinions on the bill, he did say it does not state when claims should be settled. He suggested that might be "one element of discussion." Five lawyers are attending the conference, helping to in- terpret the eight-page bill. Two are members of the council, the other three non - Indians who agreed to help free of charge. Mr, Pelletier told the confer- ence in an opening address the economic problems of Indians in many parts of Canada are as serious as those facing emerging African nations. He suggested the federal gov- ernment establish a national In- dian development board to see solutions to these problems. At one point in his address he dealt with a flag, and a red yellow and black flag was un- furled. It is without official sta- tus. It shows a black thunder- bird, symbol of the North Amer- ican Indian, incorporated in a yellow maple leaf on a red background. Mr. Pelletier said the council is expected to discuss a flag at its fourth annual meeting at Garden River Reserve, Ont., July 29-31. Possibly a_ design competition would be held, W. I. C. Wuttunee of Calgary, the council chief, said in open- ing remarks he would like to see history books tell more of the Indian heritage. Indians want to take their place in so- ciety as "equals."
