Wilton, Publisher TUESDAY, JUNE 30, 1964--PAGE 6 Pearson Film Debate Waste Of Time, Money The on-again, off-again flag de- bate has been silly enough, but for sheer irrelevancy and waste of time, the Commons argument over a tele- vision production must surely take the prize. All parties are to blame for this bit of expensive nonsense -- expensive since parliamentary de- bate costs the country something like $1.75 a word -- and their fussing and feuding over a paltry issue which could have been settled in 10 sensible minutes must con- firm the growing suspicion that our members of Parliament will selze any chance to avoid getting down to serious business. Prime Minister Pearson gave op- position members the opportunity to blow up the issue when he failed to give clear answers to questions about his viewing of a CBC film about himself. The CBC had de- cided not to show the film; the pro- ducer protested; opposition mems- bers suspected that the CBC de- Confronting There is a curious air of unreality about criticism of recent moves by the United States to convince Com- munists in Southeast Asia that it is deadly serious about protecting the independence of Laos, Cambodia and South Viet Nam -- same sort of unreality that was apparent in the 1930s, when people like Churchill and Eden were being called war- mongers because they talked about: the necessity of convincing Hitler that his mad aggression would be stopped, by force if necessary. One party leader in the Canadian Parliament says that the U.S. must take steps short of war to main- ain the integrity of the menaced countries of Southeast Asia, That g@ounds like a fine, ringing de- elaration. But the key to power politics -- fundamental to the Asian struggle -- is power itself; it is not enough simply to have it, you must convince your opponent that you are willing to use it. cision had been influenced by the Liberal government. It has gone on from there, in 'a welter of charges and counter-charges and an atmos- phere of mean suspicion, with Cone servatives in particular indulging in a lot of gutter oratory. Mr. Pearson could have disposed of the matter early, by giving un- equivocal answers to questions and putting it to the House whether a request should be made to the CBC to show the film. The CBC could defy a government order, but it could not ignore parliamentary direction, since it is a creature of Parliament and not of the government. Instead he backed and filled, and the House was quickly involved yet again in a silly and fruitless debate over very little. Parliamentarians are said to be worried about their "public image." They need to be. Their remedy is to avoid such displays as that in the affair of the Pearson film. An Enemy If the Chinese Communists, who are pulling the strings in South- east Asia, are convinced that the United States will do anything "short of war', they will push matters as far as they can. Con- versely, if the Americans and their allies show that they shrink from full use of their power, they might just as well out of Southeast Asia now, thereby saving lives and money for the present -- but prob- ably encouraging a bigger and more serious confrontation later. If the all very well to accuse the United States of returning. to a policy of brinkmanship, as another Canadian party leader has done, But brinkmanship is, after all, a con- frontation, and unless we are pre- pared to confront our enemies at critical times, we can only turn and run -- which 'does not help much, because after a while there is no place left to run, to, as we found out in 1939. Multiple Job-Holders Moonlighting may be over-rated as an unemployment factor. The federal labor department has pub- lished a report, "Multiple Job- holding in Canada," based on infor- mation obtained at three-month in- itervals through the monthly labor force survey conduced by the ; Bureau of Statistics. Results of the _surveys were averaged, to lessen tthe effect of seasonal variations tand improve the reliability of the estimates. During the period covered, an "average of 158,000 Canadians held »two or more jobs at the same time. This represented 2.8 per cent of all employed persons in the country -- low by comparison with figures issued by the United States Bureau fof Labor Statistics which show the * multiple job-holders there consti- "tute from four to five per cent of 'the labor force. = More than half of the Canadian ; multiple job-holders -- 89,000, to be "precise -- were engaged in some Egort of self-employment or unpaid = family work in addition to their F paid job. 5 She Oshawa Times T.

WHATS WRONG : WITH A GaoD 01D: re LIKE aN BETSY ROSS PEARSON REPORT FROM U.K. Oil Firms Tackle Pollution Problem By M. M INTYRE HOOD Special London (Eng.) Correspondent For The Oshawa Times LONDON -- The problem of oil pollution on the seas and beaches has been the subject of international negotiations for Many years. Ten years ago, a series of conventions on the sub- ject was drawn up at an inter- national conference. Two years ago, it was amended to make it more effective, But there has been long delay in having the YOUR HEALTH conventions ratified by the na- tions ivolved, so that they have never come into force. Tired of waiting for official action, three of the world's larg- est oil companies have decided to go ahead and act on their own in an effort to tackle this oil pollution problem. They are not going to wait for ratifica- tion of the international conven- tions. The three companies are Shell International, British Petroleum Yawn, Deep Breath Give Body Oxygen By JOSEPH G. MOLNER, MD. Dear Dr. Molner: What causes me to yawn all the time, or to take deep breaths, Could my metalbolism be off balance. I had a chest X-ray and the result was fine, I'm not short of breath, but I am a lit- the overweight.--M.K, What makes people yawn? Or have to take a deep breath once in a while? The deep breath is really a sort of slow- speed yawn. And a real yawn is a concentrated deep breath. Physiologically, a yawn re- sults when there is a relatively high amount of carbon dioxide in comparison to the amount of oxygen in your system, This doesn't necessarily mean that anything is wrong, of course. Babies yawn. Animals yawn. They lie quietly and don't breathe very hard. Even- tually the oxygen - carbon diox- ide balance becomes such that they need to correct it. So they yawn, meaning that they take a deep breath, exhale, then go back to ordinary breathing. If you are sleepy and tired, you yawn. Why? Because you haven't been active, and you haven't been breathing very vigorously. Can you imagine a baseball player, up at bat, stop- ping to yawn? Of course not! He's keyed up, and all his physical responses have been extra-active to respond to: his emotional desires to get a hit. Boredom also makes you yawn. When you are bored, you slow down physically to suit your mental attitude. (This, in- deed,.is a considerable part of what: we mean by: the word "psychosomatic." The way we feel has a great deal to do with the way we act, or react.) For whatever reasons, yawns are contagious. Somebody else yawns, and pretty soon you do, I suppose that this is a normal response to dull or tiring situa- tions, Evérybody feels logey. One person finally gives way to his automatic desires and yawns. So the cork has been pulled. Other bored people, who have been trying to stay inter- ested, yawn, too, It is quite conceivable that low thyroid activity can have its impact on yawning, This means low oxygen consump- tion. Therefore a chronic yawner might well find it in order to have 'some metabolism tests. One yawn doesn't mean any- thing. Nor a dozen: yawns. But chronic yawning may mean that your metabolism is be'ow par, and that you consequently are bored and languid. Or you may, for such com- binations of circumstances as I eannot easily reconstruct, be in- different and bored and so lowered metabolism. Or for that matter there may be a connection between being overweight and being both un- duly inactive and more than duly bored. You'll have to take it from there. Dear Dr. Molner: I read your recent article on cortisone. Can you enlighten me on sclero- derma, or "'tightening of the ekin"?--MRS, M.R, Sclerodema is one of the collagen diseases, that is, involv. ing fibrous structures of the body. It can appear in different forms. In the case of the skin, it thickens and becomes pale and tight. Arthritis often but not always accompanies this. Cortisone or one of its deriva- tives is the chief treatment, WORRIED MOTHER: I wish I knew how to put a stop to this, but it still keeps on.

TWO YEAR TEST The BP Tanker Company has been conducting experiments with the new techniques for the last two years. Now they have bee joined by the ofl com- panies in putting them into practical use. Pollution of the sea and beaches by oil can be charged against most types of vessels but particularly against oil tankers. The major cause for this is that it has, in the past, been necessary for oil tankers to clean out their tanks while at sea. They usually have to clean out about one-third of their tanks on every voyage. These tank washings have simply been discharged into the sea a con- siderable distace from shore. But the movement of the seas has the effect of washing the Pollution on to the beaches. Shore facilities for receiving these oil washings are not gen- erally available at crude oil loading terminals, NEW SYSTEM The oil companiés which are co-operating in the new tech- nique fee] that it will quickly and materially improve the oil pollution situation. The method employed is known as "'the load on top" system. By this system, the oily waste washed from all the tanks is collecteq into one tank. There it is left to settle into a layer of oil floating on top of clean sea water. As much of the water as can be pumped off without traces of oil is eventually discharged into the sea, and the oil is left on board the ship. When the vessel reaches its crude oil loading port, the mext cargo is simply + a on top of the remaining oil. With the large fleets of tank- ers used by the three co-operate ing oil companies using this means of dealing with the waste oil,: there will eventually be a considerable diminution of the amount of oil pollution of the seas, And its promoters are hopeful that in due course it will be adopted on all oil tankers.

Much of his trouble has been because of the frankness of his opinions -- a tendency towards two feet in his mouth, accord- , ing to one critic. Strongly opposed to'the Can- ada Pension Plan, originally at least, he has been in the news pages more than once with such comments as that Ottawa was "playing politics" with the pen- sion question. Now he has had a fight with his senior assistant, Dr. J. M. Rowat, and Dr, Rowat has re- signed. HASN'T HELD PUNCHES And true to form, Mr. Cows ard hasn't held his punches, Usually in a situation in gov- ernment such as this every- body tries to avoid trouble by saying little and keeping 'temp- ers smooth. PARAGRAPHICAL WISDOM "The temperature of the plan- et Mercury is high enough to keep iron in a molten state."-- Science note. If you are only moderately angry with a person, you might tell him to go to Mercury. Not all fairy tales begin with "Once upon a time ..." A number of them are introduced by, "Circumstances over which I have no control. . ." It wouldn't cost much to run the United Nations if its dele. gates were paid on a peace- work-accomplished basis. Men understand little about women but they understand enough to have their suspicions, But the commission chair- man admitted quite frankly that he and Dr. Rowat had dis- agreed and the relationg be- tween them had grown un- healthy, The case of this mild-man- checks nered Englishman with the quick4rigger tongue illustrates once again the wisdom of well- established principle that out- siders usually don't fit too well in government. What may be quite in order in private industry just doesn't go here. In government there is the added dimension of political considerations. Most pertinently, there is an ever-present opposition eagerly awaiting the chance to criticize anything that is said or done. KEY LESSON The key lesson that the ex- perienced civil servant absorbs is to keep his mouth closed. And if he does have to say something, he should know well who he is talking to and just what potential trouble he may be getting into. Men brought in from the out- side seldom are able to learn this. An experienced senior civil servant would no more talk about the "politics" of another government than he would slap his minister's face. If anyone is going to do either, that is up to the prime minister--who must carry the ball before the public. NOW DISAPPEAR? There is some chance now that Mr. Coward's commission may disintegrate underneath him. The commission was set up when Ontario planned an exten- sive organization to administer its portable pensions legislation, The federal pension program has now so cut down this legis- lation that the commission may not be needed. Of course, if Ontario adminis- ters the federal program the aaa ag would have a big job, } The prominent British sur- geon, Sir Terence Cawthorne, t apeaker. at th est speaker at the. vo Feaith committee of Parle. ; ment.

It is beneficial for a doctor to visit his patient at chat with the family in parlor, perhaps consult another doctor in the bathroom. This helps him pinpoint what ails the patient apart from ob- vious physical symptoms. But when doctors earn their living under state enjoy _ better through the ministrations of a family doctor 'over the years, than by pelts, treated'-as a symptom ranger special- ists, Dr, Rynard explained, The family doctor is the back- bone of a nation's health. The bedside manner has its place in his care; so does the office visit, when he diligently makes of sedimentation rate, weight, pulse and blood. He can diagnose which is physical ail- ment, and which is product of emotion. But un- der - trained GP which would emerge under a crash program would treat nobody and merely refer them to specialists. A national medical plan is a welfare project; most Cana- dians prefer to pay for the treatment they wish, and are now helped in this by insurance plans, It would be preferable to cater to the few indigents, than to downgrade the nation's health care by reducing the GP to the status of a second- TODAY IN HISTORY By THE CANADIAN PRESS June 30, 1 Jacques Cartier made his first landfall in Canada on this day in 1533.
