She Oshawa Times 86 King St. E., Oshawa, Ontario Published by Canadian Newspapers Limited T. L. Wilson, Publisher E. C. Prince, Associate Publisher OSHAWA, ONTARIO, WEDNESDAY, MARCH 29, 1967 Nationals P layed Well In Interest Of Canada Canadians will be disappointed that their national hockey team was unable to win the world champion- ship. There is, however, no reason to be disappointed in the team. To the contrary Canadians can be ex- tremely proud of their representa- tives this year. The attention attracted by the tournament contributes greatly to the tension both on the ice and for Canadians at home. When our hoc- key players leave for games in Europe it is not unlike they were taking off for foreign wars. There is certainly evidence in the past that they haven't had exactly fair treatment. Nevertheless to read ominous political portent into their losses would be wrong, foolhardy in fact. Such an attitude could delay a Canadian campaign to root out the real trouble which surely must be inferior if not prejudiced officiat- ing. The ineptitude in this field which helped defeat the Canadian team cannot be a residue of the fast-fading cold war -- American and Swedish referees were involved. Our disappointment in not being able to claim the world hockey tro- phy to add to our Centennial honors has stemmed too from expectations built on over enthusiasm. The uni- quely-organized Canadian National Team has developed so quickly and so proficiently it was easy to over- look that at the start of the season the aim was to improve this year and to lay claim to the laurels later. Then the Nationals in as exciting a contest as will. be played any- where defeated the Soviet team in Winnipeg to win the Centennial Tournament of the Canadian Ama- teur Hockey Association. That was a night for national pride, And it was more. It showed Canadians from coast to coast we were at last on the right track in developing a hockey team which again could compete and win in international play. From this outstanding victory the Nationals have gone on to give Canada stellar representation in the world tournament. Champion- ships are bound to follow. Restraint Through Fear Toronto police have been appeal- ing this week to Metro residents who have been attacked by hood- lums or to those who have seen peo- ple attacked to come forward and give information. The feeling is ap- parently that many more muggings are taking place than are being re- ported. The situation illustrates a deplor- able dimension in the cost of crime. The toll taken from society by the criminal element in lives, in suffer- ing, in property loss is appalling. Yet as a writer in The Milwaukee Journal recently pointed out these statistics do not take into account how crime restrains the pleasure of living.

One-third no longer spoke to strangers. One in five used cars or taxis in dark- ness instead of other means of transportation. "The existence of crime, the talk about crime, the reports of crime and the fear of crime have eroded the basic quality of life of many Americans," the commission con- cluded. "Other studies have produced similar findings. One national poll showed that half the nation's wo- men were afraid to venture from their homs at night. Another sur- vey showed that one-third of those questioned kept guns in the house for protection against criminals. Almost as many kept watchdogs. A study of Milwaukee inner core resi- dents last year revealed that two. thirds of the whites and four out of 10 Negroes felt unsafe on neighbor- hood streets. "The child who must be taught to fear the "friendly stranger," the parents who drive their children to nighttime school events rather than letting them ride the bus, the elder- ly woman who no longer strolls around the block in the evening -- these, too, are victims of crime. They are being robbed of a fuller enjoyment of life. The Toronto residents who are re- maining quiet about the crime they have experienced or witnessed are victims of such restraints, It's ask- ing a great deal of them but by giv- ing the information they have is the surest way they have of combatting the growing blight on society. WINDSCALE, CALDER HALL RESPECT FOR U.S. IN CANADA SEEN AT LOW EBB IN YEARS BY THE CANADIAN INSTITUTE OF PUBLIC OPINION (World Copyright Reserved) ; Considerable fluctuation is noted in the way people feel about United States prestige in the world. Probably because of the Vietnam war. Canadians feel that respect for the United States is at its lowest ebb in some years. In 1963 a majority of Canadians (54%) felt that Unit- ed States prestige had increased and only 21% said it had decreased. Today the thinking on this subject is practical- ly reversed. Sixteen per cent say United States prestige has increased and 47% feel it has decreased, Most disillusioned citizens, in regard to their respect for the United States, are found in the Canadian west. Only 13% say United States prestige has increased and 56 say it has decreased. The question: "In the last year would you. say the prestige (and respect for) the United States has increased, or de- creased?" 1961 1963 TODAY Increased 20% 54% 16% Decreased 36 21 47 About same 28 18 23 Undecided 16 7 14 100% 100% 100%, Here is how people in the different regions of Canada feel about United States prestige in the world today: Total East Ontario West Increased 17% 17 13% Decreased 39 49 56 About same 28 23 19 Undecided 16 11 12 100%, 100% 100%, MSE TL, | Unilib May Be Answer To University Libraries TORONTO (CP) -- Unilib, a ' because U. of T. has already centralized super library, may embarked on a big new library _~ v1) oul weed ha " Sty P< Ln.

Dr. Arlt, president. of the United States' Council of Grad- uate Studies, was the library expert on the Ontario govern- ment-appointed commission un- der its chairman, Dr. John W. T. Spinks, president of the University of Saskatchewan. In an interview Dr. Arlt said about 70 per cent of the library contents of a university with 1,000,000 volumes is "not used more than once a year." The storing and cataloguing of these at Unilib would cut ex- penses and work and ease the strain. caused by the North American shortage of li- brarians. DELIVERED IN VANS How the system would work was outlined in the Spinks re- port and elaborated on by Dr. Arlt. He said a fleet of vans, oper- ating weekly, or even more fre- quently, could take the ma- terial needed to specialist grad- uates across the province. Computers at the centre of operations would catalogue ine formation for all university li- brarians in Ontario--easing the burden of filing and record- keeping at various campuses. Later teletype and photo-copy links between the universities and the central "brain" would cut the need for a student or professor actually to borrow a book. He could have "canned" information instead. Later still could come '"'in- stant' research with use of closed-circuit TV, which Dr. Arlt says is on its way in inte- grated univegsities in the U.S. The Spink® report said that even a "mogerately adequate" university todjlay needs a mini- mum of 1,@,000 volumes. The University of Toronto, with 2,050,000, is the only centre of higher education in Canada that can measure up to this stand- ard, TORONTO PICKED Thus the Spinks report voted for Toronto as the location for the library 'brain,' both be- cause of its central location and vcctor t SILVER - the Spinks commission for an over-all University of Ontario, support its report on libraries. It already has been approved in principle by the U. of T. and a recently-formed inter-univer- sity council aimed at co-ordinat- ing library activities. The rejected University of Ontario idea would have com- bined the universities into one body for planning, academic, buget and construction poli- cies, By ARCH MacKENZIE WASHINGTON (CP) -- The concept of an Arctic anti-missile system, operating as a UN-spon- sored international defence against American, Soviet or Chi- nese long - range rockets, has been proposed by Democratic Senator Albert Gore. It's one of the facets here in considerable debate about how to handle a costly new phase of the nuclear arms race unless the Soviet Union and the U.S. can agree to call it quits. "It is being considered," says the Tennessee senator in an in- terview. But just how much-- if any -- Canadian territory might be required is conjectural at this stage. The Canadian Arctic and sub- arctic were vital to the Dis- tant Early Warning -- DEW -- and Mid-Canada radar lines thrown up against bombers in the 1950s. Similarly, Canadian launch- ing pads were deemed vital by the U.S. for the short - range Bomare anti-bomber missile. But the long-range attack mis- siles, and those that now may be set up to destroy them in flight with counter nuclear ex- plosions, could be based else- where. WOULD USE SHIPS "I'm not sure at the present time that any Canadian land would be required," says Gore. "Some ships could be used per- haps to close the gap between anti + missile bases I suggest for Greenland and Siberia. "But that's not to say some Canadian land wouldn't be de- sirable." Gore hopes the United Nations would operate the defensive mis- sile wall he envisages. Gore bared his idea to State Secretary Rusk during a recent closed sitting of his Senate sub- committee on. disarmament. Rusk welcomed it because "we welcome new ideas -- we need new ideas on this matter be- cause the issues are very great." YEARS AGO 25 YEARS AGO March 29, 1942 Cecil F.

King Charles Needed Funds Handed Acadia By BOB BOWMAN Brflain owned Canada 130 years before Wolfe captured Quebec, but gave the country back to France because King Charles I was in grave trouble at home. In 1628, the Kirke brothers destroyed a French fleet in the Gulf of St. Law- rence. It was carrying supplies to Quebec to last for a year, and the loss brought Cham- plain's settlement to the point of starvation. When the Kirke brothers re- turned to Quebec in 1629 there were only 16 people living there. The others had gone to Indian villages where they found food and shelter. Champlain was so desperate that he considered leading friendly Indians on a campaign to capture an Iroquois village in present - day New York. He hoped to get enough food there to be able to hold out until fresh supplies arrived from France. HAD NO TROUBLE The Kirke brothers had no difficulty capturing Quebec, al- though Champlain tried to bluff that he could blow their ships out of the water. He was taken to London as an honored pris- oner, but allowed to proceed to France because the war had ended, Charles I needed money so badly that he handed Canada and Acadia, back to France on March 29, 1632, by the Treaty of St. Germain-en-Laye. In re- turn he received the balance of a dowry owing to him for hav- ing married Princess Henrietta Maria. So the opportunity of owning Canada slipped away. It For France would not have taken much ef- fort to have retained possession because France was luke-warm about North American terri- tories. It was Champlain who per- Suaded Cardinal Richelieu to resume colonization efforts, and he was sent back to Quebec as governor of New France. The Company of One Hundred Asso- ciates was revitalized to help him. When Champlain died at Que- bec three years later, he did not know that this same com- pany was planning to replace him as governor. The reason has never been explained.

(Dearne cca ubursttnnntnncs ements LOSSES 1,000 Laos War Shadowy, Quiet One By TAMMY ARBUCKLE VIENTIANE (Reuters) -- The war in Laos is a quiet one com- pared with the war beyond its eastern frontier in Vietnam. It is a shadowy war in the mountains and jungles of north- ern Laos and only once or twice a year is there a large-scale battle. Hostilities consist mainly of patrol skirmishes and sharp attacks on nameless heights, involving the neutralist govern- ment forces and the pro-Com- munist Pathet Lao who are backed, say reliable military sources, by some 20,000 North Vietnamese. As in every war, a large number of patrols in Laos re- turn to their positions without making contact with the enemy. Even when contact is made, the engagement lasts only for two or three minutes before both sides retreat, leaving be- hind a handful of casualties. - MINES ARE LAID Often a mine laid by a group of three or four infiltrators, in general more effective than a large patrol, does the damage. Despite the limited scale of operations, Laos government forces lose more than 1,000 in killed and missing each year. Over and above this there are the wounded, 500 of whom are maimed by mines alone. Pathet Lao and North Vietna- mese losses are estimated to be higher, largely due to air at- tacks, Laos, the landlocked kingdom of 1,000,000 elephants, has been the scene of sporadic fighting since 1962 between neutralists and their allies and the Pathet Lao. The policy of neutralism stemming from the 1962 Geneva agreement on Laos is intended to keep the country from veing drawn into the Vietnam war. Free Milk Abolished By J. C. GRAHAM Canadian Press Correspondent AUCKLAND (CP)--After 30 years New Zealand has abol- ished a measure hailed in its day as a great humanitariar advance for child -health--fre¢ milk in schools. In the wake of the Depressiog and in one of the world's majot milk producing countries, » Labor government in 1937 intro: duced a system of supplying free to every child half a pint of milk daily at school. Health department studies after the introduction of the school milk scheme testified te great benefits noted in soma children. Ever since, crates of milk in half-pint bottles have been de- livered daily to every school. The milk is consumed under supervision during a mid-morn- ing recess. Investigations into the system in the 1940s raised some doubts. In some schools it was found that as many as a third of pu- pils were refusing milk. In some cases much was poured away daily. STANDARDS RISE By the 40s also, nutritional standards had risen markedly and few people were financially unable to provide for their chil- dren. Meanwhile, the cost of the milk scheme continued to rise, Last year it cost the govern- ment more than $2,400,000. Several education boards in recent years took the view that a daily milk ration should no longer be a charge on the gov- ernment, "LOCKED IN LEATHER Roman householders locked their doors by tying leather thongs into complicated knots, IT HAPPENED IN CANADA By CARL MOLLINS WINDSCALE, England (CP) The working symbol of Brit- ain's ambitious development of atomic power is a silver- colored sphere, squat build- ings and towering chimneys astride the mouth of the little Calder River on the Cumber- land coast of the Irish Sea. Britain, which has four pro- totype plants and seven com- mercial stations feeding power from nuclear reactors into the national electricity networks, has produced' more kilowatt hours of atomic elec- tricity than the rest of the world combined. Ten more ex- perimental or commercial nuclear power plants are in various stages of building. The basis of British leader- ship established during the last decade is centred here at neighboring Windscale and Calder Hall. The approach to this capital of practical science winds downhill from the rustie Eng- lish Lake District between drystone pasture walls--earl- 7. fer technical achievements so 4 Atomic Electricity tidily put together that no mortar is needed to keep them standing. Black - faced sheep and a herd of shorthorn cows graze almost to the wire gates of Calder Hall, the world's first industrial atomic power sta- tion, and next-door Windscale, where an aluminum globe en- closes the prototype British atomic generator of the 1970s, Calder Abbey, built in 1134 . and now in ruins after seven centuries of spiritual service, overlooks the sealed chim- neys of two reactors built in 1950 and now in radioactive ruin after seven years of pro- viding plutonium for nuclear bombs. When Windscale plutonium reactor No. 1 overheated in October, 1957, and spread ra- dioactive poison--causing the produce of 977 surrounding dairy farms to be dumped into the sea for several weeks the neighboring Calder Hall plant had been feeding power into the national electricity grid for exactly one year. Even as four committees of ingulry investigated the ac nent more for Hall plants cident -- resulting in perma- shutdown of the plutonium United Kingdom Atomic En- ergy Authority barely paused in its headlong effort to co- erce uranium atoms into ever efficient making electricity. BOUGHT BY JAPAN In the weeks of late 1957 when the Windscale contro- versy was at its height, Brit- ish contractors drafted plans the first commercial power stations on the Calder model. and Japanese missions de- cided at the same buy the Calder Hall design. Within five years, by June, 1962, the first two of nine Brit- ish commercial power stations modelled on Calder Hall were in service at Bradwell on opposite sides of England Ten per cent of electrical power is provided now by with, a 3,400,000 kiloywatts--3,400 meg- @watts in the\simplifying par- lance of the high-energy era. Completion of the last two sta- tions in the twin-reactor Cal- der series, including the rec- ord 1,180 - megawatt Wylfa plant in north Wales, will raise the working nuclear ca- pacity to more than 5,000 meg- awatts before 1970. By comparison, the reactor just coming into service on Lake Huron at Douglas Point, Ont., Canada's first commer- cial nuclear plant, has a ca- pacity of 200 megawatts. The two-reactor followup at Pick- ering, Ont., will produce 1,000 megawatts after scheduled completion in 1971. A slightly different version tentatively projected for 1974 at Becan- cour, Que., would produce about 250 megawatts. U.S. FORGES AHEAD Nuclear power in the United States, now providing 1,900 megawatts from 14 plants, has leaped into a boom stage with reactors under construc- tion or on order expected to push the U.S. past Britain with total nuclear capacity of 31,500 megawatts by about 1975, two reactors --the systems of Visiting Italian time to Berkeley and Britain's Calder-type nuclear capacity of also burned down four years later.
