The Oshawa Fines Published by Canadian Newspapers Limited 86 King St. E., Oshawa; Ontario T. L. Wilson, Publisher TUESDAY, SEPTEMBER 8, 1964--PAGE 6 Adjournment Of Debate Should Be Supported Douglas Fisher, House leader of the New Democrats, almost man- aged to bring the dreary and time- wasting flag debate toa halt in the Commons last week - almost. With division bells ringing frantically, the Liberals finally managed to round up enough members to defeat Mr. Fisher's proposal to adjourn the de- bate, but they needed the help of the Creditistes. _. Mr. Fisher said he would keep on trying, because the flag spectacle is damaging Parliament's reputa- tion and holding up important legis- lation. It certainly is. It's doubtful if the Canadian Parliament has ever put on such a sorry show as it has through the summer months. The blame must rest on the two old_ parties. A contributing factor undoubtedly is the antipathy which obviously exists between Liberal Leader Lester Pearson and Con- ' servative leader John Diefenbaker. Many observers, in and out of Par- : liament, suspect that were either or Project For Ontario's centennial project, as expected, will be a centre of science and 'technology. Premier Robarts's announcement confirmed the expec- tation; what was news in his state- ment was the location. Toronto gets it, of course -- Mr. Robarts made & point of noting that to obtain fed- eral funds a province had to locate its centennial project in its capital city. It is a sensible decision. The prov- ' ince has its humanities centre in the ' Royal Ontario Museum. But the premier's terms of reference may ' pe too narrow. He said the project ' would be "an inventory of the ach- ievements of our people -- where we can see and feel and touch the results of those achievements; where we can say 'this was done by ' a Canadian, this was invented by a : Canadian'." He spoke, too, of "use of the most modern methods of ex- hibit and display . . . to tell the story of developments : . . in agri- culture, forestry, mining, manu- facturing, transportation, communi- cations, energy resources including hydro, health, medicine and other fields." The central theme will be Victims Of This newspaper has several times drawn attention to the unfairness of innocent victims of violent' crime having to bear their own monetary losses. The perpetrator of the crime goes to jail for some months or years, or may even get off with a fine, and then we say that he has paid his debt to society. But has he? And has society paid its debt to the victim, who may have been reduced to penury by the results of the vio- lence? We do not think so. And there is a growing body of opinion that is in agreement. The example of New Zealand, the only country that now helps the in- jured in these cases, is about to be followed by Britain, the Financial Post points out. Says The Post: To make a valid claim under the British scheme, now before parlia- ment, the victim must have suffer- 4ed at least three weeks' loss of earn- ings or, alternatively, an injury for She Oshawa Times WILSON, Publisher é ouvne KINSEY, Editor The Oshawa Times Nap arg The Oshowa Times "(established 1871) and the Whitby Gazette ond Chronicle established 1863) is published daily Sundays and Statutory holidays excepted).

In the meantime, the only par- ty consistently showing a respons- ible attitude towards the duty of the Commons has been the New Demo- cratic group. We hope Mr. Fisher does keep try- ing. One of these days some of the members voting against his pro- posal may listen to their consciences instead of their party leaders, and the Commons then will be: able to get on with its job of considering legislation which is important. The reluctance of the Liberals to adjourn the debate, however, has aroused suspicion that their legis- lative proposals are in no fit con- dition to be put before the House. This suspicion is reinforced by the vague and uninformative answers given by several ministers to ques- tions about such items as the Can- ada pension plan, redistribution of federal constituencies and trans- portation policy. Ontario "Ontario man in his industrial en- vironment." This is fine, as a central idea, But if the centre is confined strict- ly to Canadian achievement, with the main emphasis on Ontario achievement, it is not going to serve its purpose as a "teaching museum." It will inevitably become a dull and and empty monument to narrow na- tionalism. As the Ottawa Journal comments, "This centre should not be parochial. The important thing is not that something was invented by someone who hapened to be born in Canada or Ontario but the imag- ination and determination to push ahead the frontiers of human pro- gress." The Royal Ontario Museum is an exciting place because it gives such a broad picture of man -- not the Canadia man or the Ontario man but the world man -- through his history and environment. The cen- tre of science and technology will be just as exciting -- and just as long in the building -- if it strives to show the scope of man's effort to master his physical environment. Violence which a minimum of £50 ($150) would be awarded at common law. A board of legal experts will as- sess the amount payable. The com- mon law is to be their guide except that earning power may be taken into account. But no award for loss of. income is to exceed twice the average going industrial wage; and there will be "no compensation for loss of expectation of happiness." Applicants for awards may retain counsel and call witnesses. They may sue the assailant but, if suc- cessful, must repay what they have received from public funds, There is a plan, not yet worked out, to make violent criminals, if they are caught, recoup the state by deduc- tions from prison pay -- surely an admirable idea. The whole scheme looks to be fair and workable. It is esha of study im Canada, Other Editors' Views SEX SACRED Windsor Star Rt. Rev. Richard §. Emrich, Episcopatian Bishop of the Detroit diocese has reprimanded a clergy- man who wrote a play on racial justice and work by use of profanity. In so doing Bishop Emrich makes a state- ment worthy of attention. "Vulgarity on the stage is out of. order, not because sex is dirty, but because it is sacred," he said, The attitude of all Christian church- es of course is that sex is sacred, Only the misuse or abuse of sex is, bad; the nasty thoughts and words directed to it. Sex itself, as Bishop Emrich says, is sacred. besmirched his own ° WEIGHT UFTING MARATHON OLYMPIC TRIALS Moscow Duty Made Dull By Soviet's Restrictions MOSCOW (CP) -- Canada's diplomatic mission in this Com- munist capital is headed by a poet-ambassador from a well- known London, Ont., newspaper family, now on his third tour oi duty in the Soviet Union. Robert Arthur Ford, 49,.a tall and suave envoy with a flair for easy informality, presides over a sensitive outpost that has grown to include 40 persons during the 23 years since Rus- sia and Canada established dip- lomatic relations. Twenty - three of those em- ployed at the grey, rather non- descript Embassy building are Canadians, including seven women. The remainder are lo- cally employed Russian help. The Embassy, built in 1890 as the home of two wealthy Russian merchants -- brothers --is a two. storey structure YOUR HEALTH housing both chancery and am- bassadorial residence where Ford and his Brazilian - born wife, the former Maria Thereza Gomes, live. Within the Embassy com- pound also is a second resi- dence, this one housing two other Canadians and their fam- ilies, The Embassy is located on a side street close to the Soviet foreign ministry, one of about half-a-dozen high, wedding- cake - shaped structures that dominate the Moscow skyline. It is about a mile from the Kremlin. Moscow is classified as a hardship post in the external affairs department listings. The usual diplomatic stint is two years, compared with 34 years in Western European capitals. Tests May Reveal Nature Of Stones By JOSEPH G. MOLNER, MD Dear Dr. Molner; My hus- band has passed several kidney stones, but they keep forming. Will certain. foods or living hab- its have anything to do with this condition? He is 66 years , old.--MRS. RHD. Have laboratory tests to de- termine the chemical nature of the stones. They are not ail alike. The 'tests may help if some physical problem aside from the stones can be identifie If, for example, a st predominantly Compose cium; then some limitdtj the amount of calcium- ing foods (milk and cheese) could be necessary. Keep the urine dilute by drinking copious amounts of water. If the urine is dilute, there is far less chance of stones. Medication to keep the urine on the alkaline side is also important, Dear Dr. Molner: What is in- fectious granuloma? This fol- lowed a small splinter wound in the hand. Wil] medication correct it or is surgery the only answer?--JR. A granuloma is a small, nod- ular tumor. Infectious means that the tissue is reacting to some germ that is present, per- haps introduced by the original wounding. It is reasonable to suspect that some part of the splinter may still be present, and the granuloma formed as a defence mechanism against this foreign material in the body. My guess --your doctor's decision, since he has examined you, would be more valid--is that medica- tion is not likely to help, but surgical removal would Dear Dr. Molner: For sev- eral years I have had trouble breathing through my nose.' T was found to be allergic to dust and trees. Shots do not seem to he}p. A specialist says. I have a "deviated septum with overac- tive turbinates,' and that the septum should be straightened but theturbinates should not be touched. He won't perform the surgery until .after the first frost. Why can't this be corrected now dur- ing the allergy season when I have the most trouble?--AEP. During the allergy season, the membranes of the nose will be boggy and swollen. This con- dition makes healing more dif- ficult and congestion. worse for the time being. Dear Dr. Molner: A friend was in hospital for eight weeks with gall bladder trouble and complications. They took 35 or 40 x-rays, My husband says they, took too many and it can cause can- cer of the blood. How can you be safe and not have x-rays when doctors advise them?-- MRS, EO, Never take an x-ray that isn't needed; but never hesitate when one is needed. The 35 or 40 may sound like a lot, but at 1-10th of a second exposure for each, that's only four seconds altogether. X-ray treatment (i:- stead of just pictures) is 'in terms of minutes, but I don't know of anyone who got "can- cer of blood" from it. Though relations between for- eigners and Russian. citizens are not as frosty as they once were, there still is little social contact between them. Thus embassy personnel are thrown in upon themselves and move in confined circles. It is especially difficult for non-diplomatic personnel, who comprise half. the Canadian component of the embassy staff, They do not get to go to as many receptions and dinners as do the diplomats -- outings which at least inject some yva- riety into life here. : The postings of non - diplo- matic personnel range down to one year, Because of language and other barriers which impair the individual's operating effi- ciency, Westerners are both- ered by a high frustration fac- tor. This they relieve by get- ting out to Western Europe, Scandinavia or North America as frequently as possible for vacatic To travel within Russia, be- yond the immediate vicinity of Moscow, special permission is required. However, such per- mission is normally not diffi- cult to obtain and Canadians posted here do a considerable amount of weekend and holiday travelling. A constant reminder of the gulf that still divides Canada end Russia are the tight secu- rity measures enforced around the embassy, both within and without, On the outside these ere manifested by the Soviet policemen constantly stationed on the sidewalk near ihe Em- bassy door, watching all com- ings and goings. However, if the climate is chilly today, Ford can remem- ber when it was much chillier, He was here in 1946-47, during the early years of the cold war, as second and then tirst secre- tary; and again from 1951 to 1954 as charge d'affaires. During all that time relations between Canada and Russia were especially delicate as @ result of the Igor Gouzenko «py trials. They returned to some- thing Hke equilibrium in 1954 with an exchange of ambassa- dors, but have since been peri- odically upset by. Russian spy activities in Canada.

Hawkins' Publie Public WASHINGTON CALLING Scandal Shatters Exclusive Quorum By GORDON DONALDSON WASHINGTON (Special) -- It you're visiting Washington this fall, drop in at the Quorum Club and savor the air of shady © deals, intrigue and scandal in high places. Until recently the dark little suuggery on Capitol Hill was more exclusive and a great deal. gayer than the Rideau Club. in Ottawa or the Ranch- men's in Calgary. The first time I tried to get in I was left star- ing at the bronze letter "Q" on the closed door. For the club's secretary and leading light was Bobby Baker, 37, the one-time Senate page- boy who became one of the most powerful figures in Wash- ington and sparked a scandal: _ that threatens the Democratic party in the November elec- tions, There were tales of hi- jinks involving high officials, sena- tors and beautiful party-girls; improper influence by lobbyists and huge kick-backs and pay- offs on deals with the govern- ment. After a six-month investiga- tion the Senate Rules Commit- tee failed to find out how Bobby Baker made two million dol- lars in nine years while earn- ing a maximum of $19,000 a year as Secretary to the Demo- cratic Senators: It decided no- body had done anything illegal, but suggested the Senate find a code of ethics. The Quorum Club was fea- tured, There, amid the dim TODAY IN HISTORY By THE CANADIAN PRESS Sept. 8, 1964... United States Senator, Huey P. Long, was fatally wounded by Dr. Carl Aus- tin Weiss, son of one of the senator's political enemies, 29 years ago today--in 1935 --in the Louisiana State House at Baton Rouge. Long, then at the height of his. political powers and 42 years old, died two days later. Weiss never was brought to justice for his assassination attempt. He was slain immediately after the attack on Long by the senator's bodyguards, 1760--Governor Vaudreuil, the last governor of French Canada, formally capitu- lated to the British at Que- bec City. 1926--Germany was ad- mitted to the League of Na- tions. First World War Fifty years ago today, in 1914, the British Expedition- ary Force, forcing their way into a gap between two Germany armies, reached the Marne River as the in- itiative in the Battle of the Marne shifted towards the Allies. A Serbian defensive victory was reported at Raca, east of Belgrade. Second World War Twenty-five years ago to- day, in 1939, the position of French troops inside Ger- many was given as being at the northern end of the western frontier. Distance within the Reich stated as being seven or eight miles. German High Command an- nounced motorized advance guard had entered Warsaw, but the Polish government en that Warsaw had fal- en, lights and nude pictures, an ice office bulldieg, leglaistorn ice bu og, legislators, lobbyists, diplomats and specu- lators could get together. After the' scandal broke, the club could mo longer raise a quorum, and became too exclu- sive to make a profit, Baker remained a member but didn't pay his dues. So last week the management threw it open to the < mone | nudes, "hidden powder rooms and ail, for the price of a dol- lar a drink, As if to publicize the new peep-show, the Baker scandal erupted again. Republican Sen- ator John Williams of Dela- ware charged that Bobby con- spired with two other men to channel an illegal payment of $25,000 into the 1960 Democratie party campaign fund. He. said the money was a "pay-off" by Matthew McClos- key, a Philadelphia builder and former Ambassador to Ireland, in connection with the construc- tion of the twenty million dol- lar District of Columbia Stadium, The Republicans have only begun to warm over the Baker case ready for the hustings, Bobby Baker was widely known as "Lyndon's boy" and they hope to drag President Johnson into the scandal as deeply as possible, An unlovely battle between the American doctor and his elderly patient is one of the sidelights of election year. The political action commit- tees of the American Medical Association are expected to give at least three million dollars to candidates who will oppose "Medicare" for the aged. As the richest group in North America, the doctors can well afford it.' The National Council of Senior Citizens, which is fighting them, says they gave seven million to beat. President Kennedy's Medicare plan in 1962. And the Council's Informa- * tion Director William Hutton suspects, but cannot prove, that they backed the Saskatchewan doctors in their 1962 strike. What is "Medicare"? Doctors and conservative Senators call it a giant step towards socia!- ism, Yet the o ae ost advanced pro- posal now Congress pro- These are the ones he hyo hand over to American NA' commanders to use as see fit. They bear no nce to giant H-bombs. In fact, he told the Veterans of Foreign Wars they are "'no more power- ful" than the artillery the vet. erans had faced on battlefields. Not so, says Deputy Secre- tary of Defence Cyrus Vance. The "typical" tactical nuclear weapon of today oe rries a force several times greater than the atom bomb destroyed Hiroshima. To call this "conventional" is dangerously misleading, says Mr, Vance. NEW HONOR In hig relentless pursuit of supporters President Johnson seems to have caged the lib- erals, the moderates, big busi- ness, big labor, the poor and the career-women. Now he has caged himself into accepting the title of Honorary animal in the St. Louis zoo, PARAGRAPHICAL WISDOM A scientist says birds are most likely the happiest crea- tures on earth. No doubt, They haven't the mental capacity to worry, and they can fly away from most of their troubles.
