She Oshawa Ties Published by Canadian Newspapers Limited 86 King St. E., Oshawa, Ontario T. L. Wilson, Publisher ¢ THURSDAY, JANUARY 21, 1965--PAGE 4 Kiwanis International Golden Anniversary 'Today, January 21, marks the 50th anniversary of the formation of the first Kiwanis Club in Detroit, Michigan. Because of this, 1965 is being observed as Golden Anniver- sary Year by the 5300 Kiwanis Clubs in 15 nations of the free world, with a total membership of 265,000. Kiwanis now flourishes in the United States, Canada, the Far East, in the Caribbean islands and in the countries of Western Europe. That is the extent of the growth that has attended' the Kiwanis moment during the 50 years of its history of service to the communities in which it is established. Celebration of the 50th anniver- sary of Kiwanis International is not to be concentrated on functions of a grandiose social nature to mark the occasion. In each community where Kiwanis has been estab- lished, the club will mark the an- niversary by the initiation of a special project in the form of ad- ditional community service. That term "Community Service" has been adopted as the slogan for Golden Anniversary year, and the achievement of special projects will be the anniversary gift of each club to the community in which it is located. In keeping with this, the Oshawa Kiwanis Club intends to play its part in the observance of Golden Anniversary Year. A special com- mittee of the club has been work- ing on a special project for some months,and in the near future a decision will be made and an- nounced, It can be taken for granted that whatever is decided will be in keeping with the splendid record of community service ren- dered by the Oshawa Club since its inception. Its contributions to the welfare of the young people of Oshawa have been outstanding. And with the re-dedication of its members to Kiwanis ideals and principles in this 50th anniversary year, the Oshawa Kiwanis Club. will continue to live up to its motto "We Build" for the benefit of the community. Auto Free Trade Pact The automobile free trade pact between Canada and the United States has been signed. President Johnson and Prime Minister Pear- son affixed their signatures to the crucial documents at the former's ranch in Texas, and this marks the first official approval of a free trade experiment which, according to Canadian government sources, will be of a great benefit to the Canadian automobile industry. In effect, it means that the balance 'between Canadian imports of auto- mobiles, parts and accessories will in time be evened up by exports to ithe United States. It is claimed for 'this agreement that it will increase 'Canadian automotive industry pro- 'duction and employment, and will thelp to reduce Canada's unfavor- 'able balance of trade with the United States. The fact that this agreement has een signed, however, does not utomatically bring it into effect. So far as Canada is concerned, there is no difficulty, It can be made effective by the passing of an order-in-council by the. govern- ment. In the United States, it will not be so easy. Before it can be- come law, it has to be passed by both houses of Congress, and even although the Democratic party, to which the president belongs, has a majority in both houses, that is no guarantee that that it will auto- matically be adopted by these bodies. There is, indeed, a fairly strong lobby against it already making its appearance. There is also another aspect which raises doubts as to the vali- dity of the agreement. The British Board of Trade claims that it con- travenes the General Agreement on Tariffs and Trade, and there may have to be further negotiations, in- volving other countries, before that obstacle is overcome. In spite of these reservations, there is every reason to believe that the agreement will be ratified by both parties. When that happens, we can only hope that its results justify the high hopes held for it by the government. of Canada, Tory Split Will Widen There does not seem to be the lightest possibility that that the national executive of the Conserva- tive party will accede to the de- anands of the 10 Tory members of parliament from Quebec that a na- tional leadership convention be held, and that an announcement to this effect be made before Parlia- ment assembles on February 16. As we expected the Quebec members stand practically alone in their demands. True, there are two or three Conservative members from other provinces who have expressed a desire to have a new leader ap- pointed by the party. But the great body of opinion which has been ex- pressed is opposed to giving in to the Quebec group. It would appear that the party leaders in the provinces outside of Quebec still are anxious to retain Mr. Diefenbaker as their leader. They have expressed themselves in She Oshawa Times TL.

So there is a de- finite split between the Quebec group and the party elsewhere in Canada. It can be accepted as certain that there will be no announcement of a national leadership before parlia- ment meets on February 16, as the Quebec members demanded. It re- mains to be seen, therefore, what action they will take in view of this group's 'unanimous support of the demand for a convention. This rift in the Conservative party ranks is not one that can be easily healed. Mr. Diefenbaker is in the driver's seat. He has the loy- alty of a large majority of the members of his party in parlia- ment. They will stand by him as long as he wants to remain leader. That means that there will be no early healing of the breach, Mr. Diefenbaker will remain the party leader until something happens to force him out of it. And past ex- perience of his attitude indicates that something really drastic and nation-shaking will be needed to do that. Other Editors' Views O CANADA! (Calgary Albertan) For a country that is garlanded with a surfeit of national anthems --- both official and unofficial -- it is, to say the least, dispiriting to realize that we Canadians have been unable to compose a popular song fit whistling, for singing, humming or nationally or interna- tionally,.in almost a century of 'be- ing. , THE TWO MUSKETEERS MINING INDUSTRY NEEDS Facts Being Presented To Ontario Committee By GWYN KINSEY Special to The Oshawa Times (First of Four Articles) TORONTO -- The fear that Canada's $3.5 billion mining in- dustry -- the world's third larg- est diversified producer of min- erals -- may be crippled by a brain-drain runs like a dark thread through the' hearings of the Ontario Legislature's select committee on mining. These are the facts being hammered home, in brief after brief: The supply of gineers is critical, tinues to decline; More technologists and tech- nicians are badly needed; Skilled miners are in short supply and present training facilities are inadequate. THREE-PART PROBLEM The problem divides into three parts: At the university level, stu- dents are not being attracted to mining engineering; The provincial Institute of Mining at Haileybury and other technological and_ technical schools have high registrations but still do not turn out enough graduates to meet the demand-- "without the graduates of these schools," Dr. A. V. Corlett. of Queen's University told the com- mittee, "the industry would be in bad shape now"; Facilities for training miners, "'articularly in areas outside established mining communities like Timmins and Sudbury, are almost _ non - existent; the prospective workers, again out- side the established communi- ties, all too often lack the ele- en- con- mining and mentary education needed for the training process; and boom- ing, high-wage industries in the south pull many of the young northerners, skilled and unskill- ed, from the mining labor pool. SOLUTIONS PROPOSED Various solutions have been proposed to the select commit- tee. The Ontario Mining Associa- tion recommended that training programs for the unemployed be used to interest young men in seeking employment in the min- ing industry -- and that retrain- ing programs for mine em- ployees be left in the ; of the industry. But except for a few individual companies the in- dustry does not seem to have made any substantial retraining effort. Mineral Engineering consult- ant Dr. George A. Collins recom- mended that provincial mining libraries be established in each northern community, and that the Mining Institute at Hailey- bury be built into a centre of mining research and education for Ontario and all of Canada "by establishing a professional mining course for graduates from all Canadian universities." The universities, Dr. Collins claimed, want to '"'get out of the business of training mining engineers, because the student enrolment is small, the staff- faculty requirements are large, and the building investment for a half a dozen students is high." Several witnesses thought that more emphasis on the teaching of earth sciences in the secon- dary schools would help to stir students' interest in mining. Value Of The Monarchy Rene Levesque, the iconoclast of the Quebee cabinet, spoke to students of a French-Canadian school about the British mon- archy recently. It was a dusty', affair, he said, and everything that surrounds it is a lot of placotage or nonsense, in other words. It should be dis- regarded and forgotten as soon as 'possible. Mr. Levesque is unquestion- ably outspoken; we have high respect for him as a contro- versialist, but as an expert on constitutionel monarchy, his in- struction has yet to-.begin. The alternative to a mon- archy is: strangely unattractive in view of the.experience of the Germans, the French, the Am- TODAY IN By THE CANADIAN PRESS Jan. 21, 1965...

Those nations who enjoy a constitutional monarchy Sweden, Japan, Holland, Norway, Great Britain and many of the Commonwealth na- tions, have brought their monar- chies into a sound relationship with the modern democratic state with clear advantages. We have found that a mon- archy gives us a continuity of national spirit which a president -- whether he is a constitutional or an executive figure -- can- not supply. Monarchy, in the modern world, has turned out to be a mark of constitutional and political stability where it has been properly nurtured. Beware of disposing of it. --Peterborough Examiner HISTORY lai Lenin died at the age of 54 1950--Former U.S. state department member Alger Hiss was convicted of per- jury at New York. First World War Fifty years. ago today--in 1915 -- British airmen de- stroyed buildings in the Ger- man city of Essen in Rhen- ish Prussia; fighting re- sumed from Ypres to the sea after severa! days calm on the Western Front; Ger- mans captured an Alsace community. Second World War Twenty-five years ago to- day--in 1940 -- Finnish air- men raided the Soviet naval base at Kronstadt and other air bases in Estonia; Japan considered a formal protest to Britain against the re- moval of 21 German passen- gers from a Japanese ship; Britain announced the sink- ing of the destroyer Gren- ville in the North Sea with the loss of 76 lives. Several, also, urged the min- ing industry to look to its wage and salary scales, and the amount of scientific interest it could offer its potential engin- eers in the way of stimulating projects. Dr. Collins said flatly -- and he was supported in later briefs: "The simple solution to all supply problems, in a free econ- omy, is price. In this case there are two requirements for at- tracting engineers to the mining industry -- price and a pro- gressive scientific atmosphere." Most of the witnesses have been -rned with the indus- try's mage", "The glamor of mining and pushing back the frontiers' has been replaced by the "glamor of the industries associated with electronics, nuclear power, and other of the many hundreds of vocations available to the young man now," Dr. Corlett thought. "The primary reason is the change in the Canadian way of life,' he said. "The urban life is the mode, and mining is thought of as be- ing on the frontier." URBANIZATION The urban change was also noted by R. D..Hindson, of the federal department of industry. Mr. Hindson, chairman of the Canadian Institute of Mining and Metallurgy's general com- mittee on education, said in a brief presented on behalf of the committee; "There can be little doubt that one of the main reasons the min- ing industry is having difficulty recruiting competent mining, metallurgical and geological en- gineers and that university en- rolments in these areas is low is due to the urbanization of a large part of our population. Over the last ten years our urban population increased by 45 per cent while the rural popu- lation went down 20 per cent. Since scientific ingenuity and technical competence have sel- dom developed or grown in a rural socitty or in an economy based largely on production of raw maferials or primary goods, thé mining industry might well consider how it might project itself into the urban 'industrialized' society," YEARS AGO 15 YEARS AGO Jan, 21, 1950 Russell D.

Fe a al Ee OTTAWA REPORT PEI Had Celebration By PATRICK NICHOLSON OTTAWA--The worthy and sincere, though lit- tle reported, celebration of the 150th anniversary of the birth of- the architect of Confederation was perhaps that staged appro- priately at Charlottetown, the cradle of Confederation. " Heath Macquarrie, the schol- arly and sentimental historian of Conservatism, made a brief trip to Parliament Hill from his constituency last week, I found him aglow with pride and joy that The Island had been able, without the backing of a rich provincial government and with- out support from the Canadian centennial commission, to stage this moving celebration on Jan- wary ll, "It was all arranged by our Young PCs," he told me,'*The crowd overflowed the proposed venue, and we had to move to the theatre in the Fathers of Her srten Memorial Build ing."" Heath himself served as Mas- ter of Ceremonies. Making it a non-partisan occasion, the guest speaker, Island-born Dean W. S. McNutt of the University of New Brunswick was introduced by Liberal MP John Mullally, and thanked by Leo Mclsaac, defeated NDP candidate, High- land music appropriately had its place in the evening's program, and the large audience enjoyed a screening of the film of Sir John A. Macdonald produced by the National Film Board, WILTING CENTENNIAL The department of agriculture has got in on the centennial act.

These requests are all Very good providing that Those who make them are Aware of the source from Which the money must Come to pay for them, For inevitably if these Requests were granted It could only be done by' Increasing the taxes, That would not be popular At a time when suggestions For lowering taxes are Being made, because Although most people Favor higher pensions, When the question comes Of providing the money To make them possible No one wants to pay. There seems to be too General an idea that Because the government Pays for the pensions The average citizen is Freed of responsibility For providing them, and Forgets that the money Spent by the government Comes from the taxpayers; People like you and me. That is one angle of This pensions question That we are inclined to Pass over too lightly In making demands that The government pay out More money without Considering its source, BIBLE And these words, which I command thee this day, shall be in thine heart: And thou shalt teach them diligently unto thy children, and shalt talk of them when thou sittest in thine house, and when thou walkest by the way, and when thou liest down, and when thou risest up. --Deut, 6:7, The Christian training of our youth is of: paramount impor- tance.

PAINTING WORTH WHAT? Tourists in the Parliament Building are proudly shown a life-size oil painting of The Great White Queen. Two years ago I referred to this painting and asked if Queen Victoria was the first "thalidomide" baby; it was not a favorite portrait of her's because it depicts her right arm considerably shorter than her left. It is described simply as 7 John Partridge /(1790-1872)"". Toronto's City Hall, I find, possesses an identical painting, the work of the dis- tinguished 19th century German artist Franz Winterhalter; it is insured for $9,000. This is one of the better known works of that artist. What then is the paint- ing owned by the federal gov- ernment? Presumably, it is a copy of the Winterhalter work. Who was John Partridge? I can find no mention of him in any of the standard reference works. Will some future generation in its puzzlement charge that Ot- tawa possesses 'a forgery" of a Winterhalter? schooling here. And what is he? He is the new deputy minister of administration J. Stuart Ste- phen. He is the business-man of the group. He is not concerned with education, as such. NO, NOT ONE Which means Toronto hasn't been able to produce one man in the top:echelon of day-school education in the province. The men who are at the top come from all other sections of the province, and from urban and rural back-grounds--from Hamilton .to Thessalon. And some even go back to the little red school-house. But not one comes from big- town. The most important appoint- ment is that of Dr. Zachary S§. Phimister as deputy minister-- and, incidentally, he was born in Schrieber and grew up in a number of small towns, includ- ing Maxwell, Uxbridge, Alliston, Orangeville and Collingwood, This office means that Dr. Phimister is the top non-elected education official, in the pro- vince. Formerly this has been the Chief Director of Education, an office which has now been done away with. Dr. Phimister is a not too well known quantity. -He is familiar to most people here, as he has been director of Education for Toronto since 1958. But still not known about him, A FIRM FIGHTER It is known that he has been a firm fighter for such things as underground parking for teachers. ; Also Toronto has been promi- nent for educational experiment.

FACTS ON OSTEOPATHY The Editor, The Oshawa Times, Dear Sir: Regarding * pecent articles in the con- cerning the "Brain * to the U.S.A., and "Health Care Needs for the People of On- tario'"', I would like to bring ta light a serious problem concern- ing the osteopathic profession that is requiring the attention of the legislative bodies in this P ee ' : ere is a short- age of catdopaiie po Al in this province. Over the rs, many of our gone to study osteoy in U.S.A. and have failed to. to Ontario to practice due to poor practice laws in this ince which prevent them from using their full medical and sur- gical training, ~ Osteopathic physicians require a three year pre-met cour following graduation from school, followed by a four year osteopathic course which in- cludes thorough training in all phases of medicine, surgery, and osteopathic manipulative therapy, They require a year of internship following graduation, and then require the necessary residency training of from two to four years in the various fields of radiology, surgery, ob- stetrics, etc., if they wish to spe- cialize, Manipulative therapy, the im- portant contribution of osteo- pathy to the healing arts, is greatly needed by the people of Canada. Osteopathic physicians completely trained in medicine, surgery, and manipulative man- agement are especially capable of deciding whether a case is best handled by medical, surgi- cal or manipulative manage- ment, or a combination of all three. Due to the tremendous shortage of doctors of osteo- pathy, many people are unable to receive the specialized atten- tion they require. The importance of manipula- tive therapy to correct the many musculo-skeletal problems that lead to the chronic degenerative conditions that plague our aging population is well understood, This is just one area where the drastic shortage of doctors of osteopathy is being felt and will continue to be felt if something is not done soon to improve the Practice rights of osteopathic physicians in this province, In some areas of this prov- ince, osteopathic physicians do not have the use of the local hospital x-ray and laboratory facilities. These services are maintained by the tax payers and paid for by the patient. This restrictive practice interferes with the diagnostic services offered, and does not. promote proper relationships between all members of the healing arts. Osteopathic manipulative ther- apy is an important part of the healing arts, and has an impor- tant place in the care and pre+ vention of disease, It will seme- day be part of all medical courses. Meanwhile, due to the shortage of osteopathic physi- cians, the people of Canada are suffering from a lack of this specialized service. You can understand why our young people are reluctant to return to practice in .Ontarie after spending years studying this important aspect of health care, when their application of its benefits is restricted by poor legislation. Again, valuable talents and skills are being lost to ¢he Canae dian public -- a loss we can i] afford. i # FE Yours sincerely, WILLIAM CHURCH, B.Sc., DO 85 Neywash Street, Orillia, Ontario, OTHER OPINIONS QUEBEC FAILURE No chapter in the eight years that have passed since Mr, Diefenbaker became the Con- servative leader is stranger than his failure in Quebec.
