According to the Hon. Dr. M. B. Dymond, 24 of these new schools will be establish- ed in Ontario, with the objective of increasing to 6000 the number of nurses graduating annually within the next six years. This would mean an increase of 2000 over the present figure of 3000 nurses grad- uating each year. The hope that Oshawa will be in- cluded in the cities in which the new nursing schools will operate is based on the fact that the minister has announced that 19 of the new schools will be based on existing training centres. That at the Osh- awa General Hospital is one of the most efficient, and most important High Honor Hector Dupuis, former Liberal member of parliament for Montreal Ste. Marie, has given a childish dis- > play of pique in announcing that he proposes to return his medal of the * Order of the British Empire to the ' Queen because of the award of a similar honor to the four members : of The Beatles in the 1965 Queen's : Birthday honors list. If he carries * out his intention he is casting a serious reflection on the right of ».the Queen to bestow honors on + those of her subjects who are con- » sidered worthy.of such distinction. * In this she is, of course, guided i by her advisers, which means the * government of the day. In recent years there has been a tendency, and a commendable one, to spread 'her honors around much more wide- ~ ly-than was the case in past genera- tions. There has been a great recog- nition of the part played by ordin- ary citizens, as well as those in the ranks of aristocracy, or in the high- 'er levels of public life, in promot- She Oshawa Times T L, WILSON, Publisher R..C.

Enniskillen, Claremont, Menanarsnisas " WORLD SPOTLIGHT in the province, There is also the fact that there are other hospita!s within reasonable distance which » could be affiliated with the Oshawa General Hospital for the purpose of the new scheme. Since Dr. Dymond has been a medical practitioner in the town of Port Perry for several yéars before becoming minister of health, he is quite familiar with the standards and scope of training in the Oshawa General Hospital School of Nurs-" ing. With hospitals at Ajax, Port Perry and Bowmanville, and plans under way for a new general hospi- tal in Whitby, Oshawa is ideally sit- uated to provide the location for one of the new nursing training centres. This would mean an expansion of the facilities for training of nurses, and a larger enrollment. But with the government providing the finan- cial assistance required for the proj- ect and to meet the operating costs, the advantages of adding to the Oshawa facilities in order to in- crease the number of trainees are obvious, For Beatles ing the welfare of the country in many fields of activity. There has been, as is natural, some criticism in the British, press on the award of the Medal of the British Empire to the Beatles. Yet, in their own field in the entertain- ment world they have made a great contribution to brightening the lives of millions of people. Of course there are those who do not see any merit in the type of entertainment pro- vided by the Beatles. At the same time, there are millions who enjoy them, not only in Britain, but in the United States and.in other countries where they have appeared. It can be said, also, that by their huge earnings of dollars in the'Unit- ed States, estimated in the millions, they: have made a contribution to Britain's invisible balance of trade payments, and brought much-need- ed dollars to the British treasury. In honoring the Beatles, the Queen and her advisers have fol- lowed .the pattern of recognizing that there are great values worthy of distinction in all levels of the en- tertainment world, Mr. Dupuis' at- titude of discarding his honor be- cause he objects to the Beatles be- ing admitted to the charmed circle to which he had himself been raised makes one wonder if it was wisely bestowed on him in the first place, 8 Other Editors' Views CHEAP STUFF (Atlantic Monthly) Used in large quantities, nuclear explosives are dirt cheap; 30 cents worth can do the job of a. ton of. con- ventional explosives and can move earth at one-hundredth part of the cost of machine excavation, Definition For Soitude (REGINA LEADER-POST) A little boy recently was ask- ed to define the word "solitude". He thought a moment, and then said brightly, "It's a card game for one person." It is no wonder the child was fused: for in the process of our busy modern way of. life sol- itude is almost an unknown quantity. ' The theme "'togetherness"' has become almost a fetish of our society. We are urged to stay together, play until it might be said that the idea of being alone seems to have a sort of oppeo- brium. It is an illness of our time that people are almost afraid t6 be alone. The rugged individualist who chooses a solitary path is generally looked upon as a sort of oddball, regardless of the fact that his solitary state obviously delights him and was deliberate- ly embarked upon. MAC'S MUSINGS Too many people in the World of today, and that Includes many in this land, Are acting as if they were Afraid of their own shadows. As one listens to casual Conversations, and reads The«pleas for paternal care One wonders whether our Citizens of today are really Descended from the brave Pioneers, or have in. their Veins the red blood which in Times past was a guarantee Of ability to meet every Challenge with courage Confidence and hope. Today there seems to be An obsession of fears of Every description, ranging From fear of another Dismal depression period To an inward terror that Atomic warfare is coming To destroy civilization. It is true that today The world is engaged in a Deadly struggle between Tyranny and freedom, Dictatorship and democracy, Religion and atheism, But in all of these the Struggle is between the Forces of good and evil. We must never doubt that The forces of good will Ultimately prevail, so long As we ourselves cling to What is good, forsaking Everything that is evil, And pin our 'faith on the Fact that as we stand fast For all that is good, then God will stand with us.

McINTYRE HOOD Today, at the Marlborough House Commonwealth Centre in London, the Commonwealth Prime Ministers' Conference will be formally opened. It will be a meeting of the heads of government or heads of state of 21 Commonwealth countries, of which only five, Britain, Can- ada, Australia, New Zealand and Cyprus can be called white countries. The others are Asian, African and West Indian. Near- ly all of these are countries which have emerged into inde- pendence since the end of the second world war. Most of them are still dependent for eco- nomic, technical and financial aid, which is contributed freely by Britain, Canada, New Zea- land and Australia. Because of all this, there has been a complete change in the range of discussions at a Com- monwealth Prime Ministers' Conference. Actually, this con- ference has become more or less merely a debating society on a grandiose scale. It is a meeting of the partners in the Commonwealth for a frank and free discussion of its problems, of the problems of individual members, and of world events which might have their impact on Commonwealth _ relations. That, however, is 'the extent of its deliberations. NO DECISIONS MADE Traditionally, however, no de- cisions are made.by the Com- monwealth Prime Ministers at this--conferenfe. There are no resolutions t be discussed. There are no votes taken on any subject. The concensus of the views of the members is nar- rated in the final communique which is issued at the close, but there is nothing in this. which binds any Commonwealth mem- ber to action, unless it be orf the basis of voluntary offers of as- sistance to the under-privileged members by. those countries able to help them. One of the other traditional features of this conference is that there is no agenda pre- pared in advance. The prime minister of the host country, in this case Harold Wilson, in his opening statement, presents a list of subjects for discussion. This is debated, and at the first day's session, the agenda is Aim African Revolts At White Governments The AP world spotlight this week reports on African 'liberation movements', how British cadets are educated at Sandhurst, and tensions in Panama 18 months after disastrous riots. DAR ES SALAAM (AP -- Prime Minister Chou En-lai of China, spreading his message of revolution in Africa on a state visit to Tanzania, found no need to offer guns and ammunition. They are already here and still coming. Dar es Salaam means "haven of peace,"' but in the last year it has become the arsenal .of Af- rican nationalism Here are gathered the lead- ers of the. 'liberation move- ments" whose aim is to bring down the remaining white gov- ernments in Africa -- those in Mozambique' Angola, Rhodesia and South Africa. Chou"s mes- sage that the climate was fav- orable for revolution in. Africa was addressed as much to them as to the Tanzania leaders who surrounded him. ¥ But the climate has changed here, Communism is supplying thought formerly was devoted a little since Chou made a sim- ilar pronouncement in. Moga- dishu, Somali Republic, a little more than a year ago. Neigh- boring Kenya has seen Commu- nist agents at work, buying of- ficials, smuggling arms and in- filtrating presumably democra- tic institutions, President Jomo Kenyatta of Kenya, the most stable and re- spected statesman in East Af- rica,/ does not consider Kenya ripe for revolution. His position permitted the issuance of a Statement by his government throwing back Chou's - revolu- tionary gospel Kenyatta's action and Tanza- nia President Julius K. Nyere- re's firm stand for nonalign- ment probably say more about the success of Chou's mission than all the words uttered dur- ing the visit. The visit portance was of prime because 'it put spotlight ultimate frontation of black and white in Africa which now is taking form im- the on the con- the guns. Ships call regularly at the piciure ~ book harbor, studded with handsome yachts and grimy dhows, to unload Chinese and Russian weapons. They have been coming at an average rate of abdut one a month. Por- tuguese officials say two a month. Russian planes fly in' with more arms and ammunition. 4 dozen or more organizations of "freedom fighters" headquar- ter here, issuing regular and violent threats against "co- lonialists" and "imperialists."' There are. strictly. restricted training camps in the Tanzania countryside It is no diplomatic accident tiat China has its largest Kast African embassy in Dar es Sa- Im. There re believed to be nerly 3 Chinese diplomats, technicians, military advisers and espionage experts in Tan- za This once sleepy colonial cap- ital, where most sustained ' to sisal growing and the humid- ity, now is alive with intrigue, A dozen Chinese and otfier Com- munist newspaper men_ have been attracted here. The campaign against white- ruled Africa started in 1961, across the continent in Angola. Bands of guerrillas directed by the Angolan rebel leader Hol- den Roberto crossed into Angola from-The-Congo-and-killed-hun= dreds of whites and thousands of Africans in a fearful massa- cre. Portuguese troops soon were streaming to Angola and that rebellion. now has been stifled. Last September, the fight against another Portuguese ter- ritory, Vozambique, started, Guerrilla forces under the lead- ership of Dr. Edouardo Mond- lane, head of the Mozambique Liberation Front, crossed into Mozambique from Tanzania This is the payoff. The road from Vozambique leads to Sa- lisbury, Pretoria and Cape Town, drawn up by mutual consent, with the various subjects of de- bate given their order of prior- ity. The suggestions put forward by the British prime minister may not all be accepted, and others tendered by other dele- gates may be added to the list submitted. Once the agenda has been adopted, and the priorities fixed, then the discussions can be started in accordance with it. THIS YEAR'S LIST While no official agenda can be announced until it has been drawn up in today's meeting, there have been calculated leaks as to what might be discussed. Prime Minister Pearson, of Can- ada, before leaving for London} told the House of Commons what he believed might be included. The items he named were (a) The world political situation, in- cluding problems -in Asia and the Far East, Malaysia and Indonesia, Viet Nam, and rela- tions with China. (b) Problems in Africa, with emphasis on the Rhodesian situation. (c) Prob- lems in Europe, (d) East-West relations generally (e) Disarm- ament and United Nations peacekeeping problems. In addition to these, however, there will certainly be. discus- sion on the functions and scope of the Commonwealth secretar- iat which it is proposed to estab- lish in London. The Canadian view, held both by Prime Min- ister Pearson and Opposition leader John Diefenbaker, is that the scope of this new body should be strictly limited at the QUEEN'S PARK outset, and that it make pro- gress slowly. BRITISH PROPOSAL Canada's prime minister will also look with a cautious, if not suspicious eye, on the British Prime Minister's proposal that a Commonwealth Parliamentary Assembly be created. He will not be the only prime minister dovibtful of the wisdom, or the usefulness, of a parliamentary assembly of the nature en- visaged, since that would imply a body with legislative powers and with decisions reached by a majority vote, This principle is foreign to th: concept of the Commonwealth Prime Minis- ters' Conferences, and even if it is brought forward on the a®en- da, there will be. no commit- ment towards a body of this kind by the present conference. Progress towards such a body must of necessity be slow and of prolonged 'duration, and it may never come into being. Having been in attendance at several Prime Ministers' Con- ferences while working as a core respondent in London, I take a very guarded view of- state- ments issued during the course a boas meetings. It has become cfistomary for various delega- tions to hold. press conferences giving-their views of each day's business, and these views have on many occasions been in con- flict with each other. Actually, the only official statement worth considering is the final official communique, and it can some- times be more important for what is omitted, than for what is included in it. Action Is Coming On Air Pollution By DON O'HEARN TORONTO--After eight years, we now have the promise of some practical air pollution con- trol in the province. A select committee on air pollution and smoke control made its final report in 1957, it recommended that an air pollution control commission be established immediately. And it was clear from its re- port that the only effective con- trol of air poltution, except pag sibly smoke emission: is atthe provincial level. The government did practic- ally nothing about the recom- mendations of the committée at the time. Action would have required some interference with both municipalities and industry, And the disposition of the govern- ment of the day was not to interfere with anybody, if pos- sible. Two years ago the govern- ment did finally take some initial steps towards control. It passed legislation new jndustrial installations get provincial approval. This has been effective for a year or so, and government agencies have also been doing some sur- vey work and acting on com- plaints. But now, Health Mimister Dr, Matthew Dymond -has given a signal that the government in- tends to. get into full scale con- trol and enforcement, CONTROL SOURCES He told the House on his esti- mates that_plans are under way fo' a progra:. of con're. over existing sources of industrial contamination, requiring -- to This will be voluntary until the necessary specialized staff ean be engaged. But then en- forcement will be on a policing basis, There was a debate on the principle of establishing an om- budsman and the government side didn't emerge from it coy- ered with glory The debate was on an oppo- sition bill presented by Liberal Vernon Singer. T-he---government -- officially didn't. speak to it; that is nei- ther Premier Robarts nor At- torney - General Wishart took part in the debate. But some party members, in- cluding Lahds, and Forests Min- ister. Kelso. Roberts, took it upon themselves to get into the argument. And they contended, with con- siderable self - righteousness, that an ombudsman would be an infringement on the rights of the private members. They said it was the job of the members to straighten out ahy injustices 'that the public might suffer at the hands of bureaucracy. Also they said an ombudsman would mean there was someone looking over the shoulders of the civil service, and this wasn't right. This argument hardly merits comment. Private members hardly have the knowledge to break through many of the in- tricate tangles of bureaucracy today. And then party ties often hold down members I think we can. take for granted 'now that one day~we will have an office of ombuds- man in this province. OTTAWA REPORT 1965 Sees Jump | In Immigration By PATRICK NICHOLSON OTTAWA -- Our discrimina- tory immigration regulations are likely to be relaxed. with parliamentary approval this year. Under the active and ef- ficient new minister of immi- gration, Hon. Jack Nicholson, an aggressive drive to swell our flow of immigrants is being launched; and the doors of Can- ada will be opened wide to any desiring immigrant possessed of the skills and other qualities which would make him a val- uable citizen, Discrimination against certain would-be immi- grants on grounds of race is likely to be abolished, bringing Canada in line with the modern concept of the universal broth- erhood of man. Bert Badanai, the parliamen- tary secretary to the minister, tells me that' a white paper on immigration will be ready for Parliament to study when it re- assembles after the expected 13- week summer adjournment. Bert, the Liberal MP for Fort William,is himself' an immi- grant of Italian birth, who has demonstrated the valuable con- tribution which an immigrant can make to our public and busi- ness life; he is proud of the improving immigration picture after several lean years, and of the growing spread between immigration and_ emigration. MORE MAKE HOMES HERE Over 'the past four years, the number of immigrants to Can- ada has risen steadily from 71,- 689 in 1961 to 112,606 last year. There has been a further in- crease in the first four months of this year, Bert tells me; up to 30th April no less than 36,291 immigrants came to Canada, an increase of 26 per cent over the same months in 1964. Britain, Italy and Germany-- in that order--are currently our chief sources of immigrants, with an appreciable number also coming from the U.S.A. Ontario continues to receive the largest share of new Canadians, with Quebec and B.C. being the next most popular new homes. While about 10 per cent of im- migrants always return to their native lands, there is also a steady brain-drain to the U.S.A. The outflow hit an all-time peak in the second quarter of 1963, when 29,000 persons left Can- BIBLE "For as the heaven is. high above the earth, so great is His mercy toward them that feat Him." Psalms 103: 11. But for the mercy of God every life would be one of mis- ery and uncertainty. Do not pre- sume that this mercy will last forever. "My Spirit will not always strive with man." 4 ada, That year saw 87,000 peo- ple emigrate from Canada while only 93,000 came here--the high- est emigration and the lowest net increase in our population through migration which 'has been recorded in any 'year since Confederation. In fact the sad three year period, from 1961 to 1963 inclusive, saw net migra- tion swell our population by only 22,000, In contrast, however, last year alone saw the excess of immigration over emigration soar to 37,000, f Even the~1964 record is far from satisfactory. If Canada is to expand and to develop. eco- nomically as we could and should, the net increase in pop- ulation through migration should be at least 100,000 per year, while we could comfort- ably absorb two or three times that number. The problem facing the eneg- getic new minister and his dedi- cated staff is that, as he re- cently told a Vancouver audi- ence, there is no percentage in- crease at all in the jpbs avail- able in Canada for unskilled workers, We therefore need, and can only absorb, immi- . grants already trained in skilled manufacturing occupations, the professions or.the service indus- - tries, with seasonal work avail- able for farm hands. "There is a stark shortage of professional, technical and skilled manpower in most parts of Canada today," said Jack Nicholson. Unfortunately Canada is -fall- ing behind sadly in the struggle to attract enough skilled work- ers from Britain, The great ma- jority of those who wish to emi- grate prefer to settle in Aus- tralia. This is partly because the Union Jack and all it stands for is still respected there, and partly because the Australian government wisely provides subsidized passages for ap- proved immigrants from Brit ain and their families. .

A pessimist is one who is afraid he is right. Many more women are taking up the study of law. The, usual number continue to lay it down.

TODAY IN HISTORY By THE CANADIAN PRESS June 17, 1965... The Boxer Rising in China began 65 years ago today in 1900 --when Europeans, alarmed by increasing ter- rorism against foreigners and Chinese Christians,- seized the Taku forts con- trolling the Peking-Tientsin road, The dowager empress then ordered all foreigners to be killed and' the Boxers, or members of anti-Euro- pean secret .societies, went into action. Before an inter- national army relieved the siege of the embassy district in Peking: scores of foreign- ers and thousands of Chi- nese had been massacred throughout: northern China. The liberating troops looted the treasures of the capital's palaces. 1579 -- Sir Francis Drake landed in California. 1775--The battle of Bunker Hill was fought near Boston. First World War Fifty years ago today--in 1915 -- Britain announced plans for an air fleet of 2,500 aircraft and 50 dirig- ibles suitable for bombing; Germany was estimated to have 50 Zeppelins and 2,000 Taube aircraft alone. Second World War Twenty-five years ago to- day--in 1940--as the French sued for peace, Prime Min- ister Churchill revealed that he had offered to amalga- mate the French and Brit- ish empires the day before, and proclaimed Britain's de- termination to fight on alone; Russia completed its bloodless occupation of the eastern Baltic states.
