-- She Oshawa Times Published by Canodian Newspapers Limited 86 King St. E., Oshawo, Ontario T. L. Wilson, Publisher MONDAY, JULY 25, 1966 -- PAGE 4 All Quiet On Que. Front With Johnson Regime Observers of the nolitical arcane. in Quebec under the new Union Nat- fonale regime of Premier Daniel Johnson are puzzled. There's been none of the atir of "a new broom sweeping clean". There's been no challenge for "days of action". In fact there's been little or no sign of any governmental activity at all as the Johnson administration moves into its second month in office, Up to the weekend, the only pol- fey declarations by Premier John- son that have been heard clearly have been negative --- that his gov- ernment is unprepared to seek in- junctions in an effort to settle the hospital strike and that Quebec will not enter a national medicare plan in 1967 but is continuing to consider 1968 as a possibility. For the rest, as The Welland Tribune notes, Mr. Johnson's declar- ations have been limited chiefly to attempts to clarify and explain var- fous of his campaign utterances prior to the election on_June 5 ---- to portraying himself as a pragma- tist who acts on the basis of facts as they appear, and in terms of ionship to each other, va- ther than as an advocate of an arbi- tary set of political, social and eco- nomic theories. But the essence of' pragmatism is to act confidently -- soething the premier has given little indica- tion of doing. upporters of the Union Nation- ale, of course, contend that Mr. Johnson is merely displaying exem- plary caution -- that his method will produce better ultimate results than could be gained through a spurt of action which could prove premature and unsound ~~ and that he must proceed further with the job of sorting out the financial pro- blems of Quebec ( as reflected by the poor reception given recently to pro- vincially-backed bonds) before mak- ing new commitrvents on govern- ment programs. There is some appeal to these arguments says the Tribune, but uncertainty and inaction, if contin- ued much longer, can scarcely seem likely to strengthen the position of the government with a slim major- ity as it prepares to face the legis- lature and a new election which seems inevitable, The Meat Of Matter The shutdown of some of Can- ada's major meat packing houses by strikes turns attention to the meat- eating and buying habits of Canad- ians. We find that in the consump- tion of meat, we're quite a distance down the line. Figures issued by the Meat Packers' Council of Canada show Canadians eat an average of 140 pounds each of beef and veal, pork, mutton and lamb per year, This puts of behind New Zealanders at 240 pounds; Australians at 219; Argen- tinians, 216; Uruguayans, 203; and She Oshawa Times T.

Only the Danes and Swiss eat less mutton and lamb than Canadians in the 10 meat-eating countries listed. While it can be said that Cana- dians pay more and more for the privilege of eating meat, the fig- ures show that one hour's average wage in Toronto in 1964 ($2.03) would buy two pounds of sirloin beef compared with the 1.8 pounds an hour's pay would buy in 1950, (But $2.03 wouldn't buy two pounds of that $1.49 sirloin we've noticed too often around Ottawa.) The Meat Packers' Council points out that its industry has annual sales of more than $1 billion and is the fourth largest manufacturing industry in Canada, The Meat Packers' statistics are interesting. But rather than a-revl elation, to most of us, they're merely confirmation of the fact we find every time we visit the meat counter of a supermarket. The way that cash register total jumps higher and higher we can have no doubts about it being a big business. sumption breaks OTTAWA REPORT Guard Birthright McNaughton Urged By PATRICK NICHOLSON Andy MeNaughton was A reat soidier, more ie e was a devoted Canadian and an_able scientist, We at read, mark and never forget is last public words, General A. G, L. McNaughton, PC, CB, CMG, DSO, Mac, DCL died suddenly last week at his summer cottage near Ottawa in his. 80th year; he was buried with full military honors, as be- fitted Canada's first full gen- eral, who had also been a cab- inet minister, president of our National Research Council, and a member of the Canadian sec- tion of the International Joint Commission. The boy from,Moosomin, Sas- katchewan, had travelled far, and had consistently served his country {o the best of his very great ability since he began his mililary career 56 years ago. But his greatest service to Canada may be yet to come, And it will come if we ponder and act upon his advice to us, which was contained in a speech he made last month to the Royal Society of Canada on the sub- ject of Canada's water re- sources, GUARD OUT BIRTHRIGHT Knowing my interest in pre serving Canadian sovereignty against invasion, and in devel oping Canada for Canadians, Andy McNaughton sent me a copy of that speech, together with a note written from his Ottawa home pointing out the hitherto overlooked threats to both these objectives which would stem from implementa- tion of the NAWALPA plan The North American Water and Power Alliance he de- scribed as an exercise in sopho- more civil engineering, pro- pounded by a private engineer ing firm in the U.S. to drum up business for themselves. It is based on the false assump- tion that we have large renew- able quantities of surplus water in Canada, he said; further, it poses a serious threat to our sovereignty, If we were to agree to sell our water to the U.S., it would give a huge corporation, which American interests would con- trol, quasi - sovereign power to administer the huge watershed ad st the es: pense of Canadian "sovereignty. Further, General MeNaughton warned, Canada's previous ex- perience shows us that if we should agree to sell water to the U.S., we would never be able to cut off the supply even if we needed it for our own use, Cane ada, he hinted, might even be invaded by the U.S, to enforce the continuation of that water supply, He quoted the precedent of our agreement to sell U.S.A, surplus hydro - power before the last war. This was on a yearly agreement, but when the war started and we weie fighting in the war and needed all our hy- dro power, we announced, as we were entitled to, that we would not renew that agreement when it expired, But the U.S. issued a curt ore der to Ollawa not to end the supply. "I Wave often thought about that, and wondered what would happen to the sovereignty of Canada if the U.S. would sud deniy say 'You no longer have the right to deny us the water even though you need it in your own industrial and agricultural development',"' ihe general said EMPIRE GROWING One day will see Canada need ing all our water. The north. ward course of our prairie em pire is already being staked out by prospectors and timber cruis ers, he said, He was referring to the great chain of industrial cities which, half a century from now, will. have taken shape in the northern prairies Our first great socio-indusirial complex, reaching {rom Mont real to Hamilton, is now satur- ated; our second is developing between Edmonton and the Peace River, which will ulti mately be the home of 100,000,- 000 Canadians Our water in the be required there; we must not divert it to the U.S., urged Gen- eral McNaughton, If industry needs that water, let it come here to use it, rather than di- vert our riches south, Canadians should never forget the last great words of that great Cana- dian, Andy McNaughton west will all Mrs. Gandhi As Politician Shrewd In 'Pulse Taking' Ry RAM SUNDAR Canadian Press Correspondent BOMBAY (CP)--Prime Min- (ster Indira Gandhi is proving to be a shrewd politician with a sure feel of the pulse of the Indian masses She has made it clear that nobody is going to persuade her to dance At some. recent diplomatic functions Western envoys indi- cated their desire to dance with the prime minister, They were politely reminded by her aides that Mrs, Gandhi has given up Western-style dancing for good, During her last visit to Wash- ington Mrs, Gandhi explained why she was unwilling to dance. Recalling that she used to like dancing in her younger days, the 48-year-old daughter of the late Jawaharlal Nehru pointed out that "the people of India may not like to see me dancing in the Western style." She was making rather an understatement Nothing would have delighted her political enemies more than to be able to lay hands on a photograph showing Mrs Gandhi doing a twist in the company of a Western states man COULD COST SEATS "It could cost the ruling Con gress pariy at least a dozen seats in the parliamentary commented coming elections,"' a party worker. Most Indians consider dane- ing against their country's an- cient traditions, which pre- scribe that a woman should have no physical contact with a stranger Until recently, would not even with a foreign visitor, pre- ferring to give the traditional salutation of folded hands Even today, hand-shaking by women is confined to the top crust of Indian society. More and more educated women are learning what is generally known here as "ball- room dancing'? but their num- ber even in a Westernized metropolis like Bombay cannot be more than a few hundred, LED TO CRISES Passion for dancing has to domestic crises Recently, a wealthy Indian merchant of New Delhi divorced his wife on the ground that she persisted in dancing with Amer- ican and British tourists A social worker specializing in marital relations says that generally Indian women are more conservative than men on the subject of "ballroom danc- ing,"' indian women shake hands led DECLINE OF AN EMPIRE V "sO mane HAE MATTER OF ECONOMIC SURVIVAL Trades Tie That Binds East Europe The nations of Communist Eastern Europe have begun te assert their independ- ence in recent years but trade remains the tie that hinds them to Moscow, Their interest in Western markets is discussed in this story by John Best, Cana- dian Press Moscow corre- spondent, who has toured the Communist bloc. By JOHN BEST Canadian Press Staff Writer What is it that, more than anything else, keeps Eastern Europe tied to the Soviet Un- ion despite all the nationalis- tic tides that have loosened Moscow's control in recent years? Trade In what field do Eastern European countries most want to develop ties with the West? Trade For most countries in the Soviet bloc, trade relations with Russia are a matter of e pot survival.

BOWMAN This is the anniversary of the battle of Lundy's Lane about which Canadians sing in the Ma- ple Leaf Forever: "At Queens- ton Heights and Lundy's Lane our brave fathers side by side. firmly stood and nobly died'. It was fought on the Niagara Peninsula. on July 25, 1814 Barlier in the month an Am- erican army under General Ja cob Brown had defeated a Bri- tish force under General Phin- eas Riall at Chippewa, and driven it back to Queenston The Americans might have kept on going as far as Kingston if General Brown had been able to get Commodore Chauncey to make ships available, Chauncey sent Brown a haughty note of refusal. It said in part, 'We are intended to seek and fight the enemy's fleet and | shall not be diverted from my efforts by any sinister attempt to render us subordinate to the army!" Brown then recieved false in- formation that heavy British re- inforcements were coming from Kingston and drew his forces back to Chippewa. General Riall decided to attack the Americans from the flank, and marched his men all night to Lundy's Lane, near Niagara Falls, They includ- ed the Glengarries, New. Bruns- wickers, and other Canadians.

UAE RCRA BADE By Harsh Press Criticism In U.S. Of British 'Malaise' By ARCH MacKENZIE WASHINGTON (CP) -- Brit ain's austerity measures were preceded here by some of the harshest press criticism the country has had since the 1949 devaluation crisis, American impatience was showing, softened by the con- tinuing assumption that Britain still is the firmest American ally if also the most frustrating at times. This sense of impa- tience deepened as the onset of another bout in chronic eco- nomic malaise become obvious, The situation recalls to some extent American ambivalence about France in those good old days before President de Gaulle, when one government succeeded another with monot- ony and France was the sick man of Europe.

'"'He may not admit it but a measure of Brit- ish sovereignty has been lost during the protracted diffculties of sterling over the last 21 months," However, if Wilson's image as an adroit politician has suffered here recently, and if London has been depicted as "swing- ing' its way blithely to bank- ruptcy, insiders say the Wilson- Johnson axis is still strong with chats two or three times a week by telephone. QUEEN'S PARA Good Guide Provided On Education By DON O'HRARN TORONTO--If you happen to be interested in higher educa- tion in the. province there-is an excellent booklet called Horiz- one issued by the department of university affairs you will want to see, It has been distributed to all Grade 12 and 13 students in the province, It provides factual data on every post-secondary institution in the nravines and the ohey gives a "concise 'picture of our higher. educational facilities. First, there is a chart of all universities in the province and the courses they offer. VARSITY LEADS The University of 'Toronto leads the pack here, offering a total of 22 degree courses, They vary from straight arts and scl- ence to landscape. architecture. In fact of the total 26 degree courses available in Ontario, Varsity offers all but four--ag- ricultural science, journalism, secretarial science, offered only at the University of Western Ontario and veterinary medi- cine. It is to be expected, of course, that as the largest university in the province. Varsity would have the widest spectrum of courses. At the other end of the scale are the newer schools--Brock, Trent and York--which offer arts and science degrees only. COVERS FEES Then there is detail on the fees, entrance requirements, ele of each university Beyond the universities there is then data on all the other institutions of higher learning in the province. These include law schools, art colleges, teachers' colleges, in- stitutes of technology, voca- tional and trades training, col- leges of applied arts and tech- nology, nursing schools, schools of agriculture, forest technician training, horticulture and other institutions (including chiro practic: and optometry): One conclusion the booklet very definitely puts across is that higher education in Ontarie is far from confined to the universities, If a boy or girl doesn't hap- pen to be attracted to the wni- versity programs there are numerous other areas in which they can get a post-secondary education.
