2 THE OSHAWA TIMES, Soturday, August 1, 1964 GOOD EVENING -- By JACK GEARIN -- 'Give Indians Own MPs' "DIEF" WHIPS UP FEDERAL ELECTION WINDS NOTES FROM THE HUSTINGS: John Diefenbaker, currently on tour of the PC's Summer barbecue circuit, will definitely attend the Starr-Dymond- Walker picnic August 15 at the Brooklin farm of Heber Down. He will be accompanied by hig wife, Olive. The announcement 'was made by W,. H, J,. "Bill" Thompson, president of the Ontario Riding (Fed- eral) Progressive Conserva- tive Association. Mr, Diefenbaker, speak- ing Wednesday at Petrolia, strongly urged his party to get candidates in the field because he felt that all signs pointed to "an early Federal election." This announcement did much {o step-up action in the executive ranks of the Ontario Riding (Federal) Liberal Association, current- ly wrestling with a grave 'problem; who would they run against 'Mike' Starr, : undefeated in the. Fedvral arena since 1952, if an eurly W, HL 7, THOMPSON election was called ? The ORLA has appointed a committee under John Dryden of Brooklin to meet August 7 to study the situation (other members are President Sam Hollingsworth, Ashburn; William Houle of Ajax; and Norman Edmondson and Bruce V. Mackey, Oshawa lawyers). Norman Caffik, the 35-year-old former Liberal Candi- date from Pickering Township, did his part Friday to help "clear the air" in regards to the party candidates' race -- he told this department that he "definitely" would not ('I Tepeat -- would not," he said via phone) accept the federal nomination. He said "heavy business and family commit- nents" would make it impossible for him to run. Cafik's announced withdrawal has already started spec- ulation as to a successor -- the three names most com- monly mentioned are John Lay,, the Ajax insurance agent whose uncle was the House Told OTTAWA (CP) Aiken, Conservative MP for Parry Sound - Muskoka, sug-| gested in the Commons Friday) : that one or more seats in the) | Commons be set aside for In- dian MPs who would be elected by Indian bands scattered across Canada.

Mr. Kelly as said nothing, officially at least, to faintiv indieate that he would even consider such an offer He is not unlike Mr. Cafik in that business and family commitments would play a big factor in any candidacy decision he made. He and his partner, John M, Greer, haye one of the largest legal practices in Oshawa. He has other time-consuming pro- jects, such as the Oshawa Ciyie Auditorium and. the Canadian Soecer Association, of which he is a director, He also has two young children. Kelly, who plays regularly with the Oshawa Vikings of the Southern Ontario Intermediate Rugby Union, has some deep ties with the Liberal. Party -- his wife, Jacqueline, is the daughter of the Honorable Joheph Enoil Michaud, former Chief Justice of the Supreme Court of New Brunswick. He was Federal Minister of Fisheries, 1935-1942, and Minister of Transport 1942-1945, in the cabinet of Prime Minister W. L. M. Mackenzie King. Mr. Michaud visited Oshawa last year. Kelly would give the party a young, successful image, as did Cafik. He could be a formidable political foe for Mr. Starr who saw his majority shrink drastically in the last federal election, April 8, 1968, when the PCg had 22,902 votes to 20,174 for the Liberals -- Miss Aileen Hall, NDP, had 15,020, Mr, Starr tallied 23,158 votes to 16,051 for Mr. Cafik in the previous yote, June 18, 1962. THE QUESTION OF PAYING TRUSTEES The battle lines are starting to ferm on the touchy question of whether school board trustees should be paid an annual salary for their services and the chances are good that it could become a rip-roaring municipal election issue next Fall. This much seems reasonably certain, if such is the ease -- it coyld attract an unprecedented number of candi- dates to the school board race, Whatever are the merits of the present non-pay system, and they are many, this department does not automatically subseribe to the theory that such an election issue would attract, "the wrong sort of people,'"' as has been suggested in some circles. There are elected representatives in Ontario's municipal world today who benefit legally in a financial way because their name is almost constantly in the public prints through association with a board or council, There is nothing wrong with this, Members of City Councils are not looked down upon because they accept a yearly honorarium for public services rendered, and why should they be ? The $12,000 per annum that would likely be expended on trustees' salaries would be an infinitesimal amount, all things considered, in view of the expenditures administered by these public servants in the course of a year -- any austerity- minded board could save that amount without too much trouble. There are many sides to this complex problem, and the above commentary is not intended as an all-out endorsa- tion of the let's-pay-the-trustees proposal, which: requires tnuch study before a solution is reached; but it seems unfair at this stage to brand candidates who would change the pre- sent system as unsuitable for the important civic role of a trusteeship. The proposal has merit, so let's hear all sides before we cast the final die. sidered critical.
