4Q THE OSHAWA TIMES, Fridey, June 2, 1967 COUNTY LINES Centennial Day Hel By Cartwright Pupils BLACKSTOCK (TC) -- In recognition of Centennial year, the students of Cartwright High School held a Centennial Day, May 26 -- the last day fo for- mal classes for the Grade 13 students. Classes were shorten- ed and in the afternoon there was a program of special act- ivities. Activities commenced with a parade through the village. Most of the students wore 1867 style clothing; so long skirts, bonnets, frock coats, top hats and canes were the order of "the day. The parade, led by Chery] McCoy on_ horseback, presented a very colorful pic- ture. After returning to the school grounds two trees were presen- ted to the school by the Stu- dent's Council. The first of these was planted by the staff and the members of the. Stu- dents' council. The grade 13 stu- dents had the honor of planting the second tree. Then the Cana- dian flag and the Centennial flag, presented to the school by Russell Honey MP, during the recent school expedition to Ot- tawa, were raised on the new flagpole. The Students' Council had challenged the staff to a volley- ball game. The staff, being vic- torious in their first game, went down to defeat when they challenged the Grade 13 "all- stars". These games concluded the day's activities.: History Reviewed BROUGHAM (TC) Dr. C. Vi- pond gave an interesting review of Canada's achievements in the past and her hopes for the future at the centennial service at St. John's United Church. The Durham County Junior Farm- er Choir assisted the junior choir of the church. Fete Octogenarian BROUGHAM (TC) -- Mr. and Mrs. Mervin Annis and family attended the party honoring her mother, Mrs. L. Honey of Port Perry, on the occasion of her 80th birthday. WI Birthday BROUGHAM (TC) -- Mrs. Doris Connell was hostess for birthday of the Women's Instit- the celebration of the 57th birthday of the Women's Instit- ute, It was announced the his- torical dolls will be displayed OTTAWA (CP) -- The first budget speech after Confed- eration was recalled by Fi- nance Minister Sharp Thurs- day as he announced the country's Centennial Year budget in the Commons. The minister quoted ex- cerpts from the budget speech April 28, 1868, by John Rose, finance minister of the Con- servative government of that time, The excerpts included: If we work together in har- mony, if we endeavor to ce- ment the union, if we develop the varied and rich resources of the several provinces, we have the elements within us to build up a prosperous and powerful community. In Lower Canada we have a people frugal, industrious and attached to the soil--not a nomadic but a steady, con- tended people well adapted for manufacturing pursuits; while in the West we have immense agricultural and in the East Century-Old Budget Speech q CouldBe Applicable Today equally important maritime resources, I am not an enthusiast, but I say that although we have a rigorous climate and many difficulties to combat, we have correspondingly hardy, ener- getic and thrifty population and in the extent and variety of our resources we have as certain a promise of a good future as any country ever en- joyed, WATCH SPENDING Now, sir, I would not. wish it to be supposed that, in call- ing attention to these indica- tions of the future prosperity of the country, I am desirous that we should rush into un- due expenditure. On the con- trary, I say that we ought to be most careful in our outlay and consider well every shill- ing we expend. f trust that whatever gov- ernment may be in power the people will demand at its hands a thrifty and economi- cal administration of public affairs. I claim that we who June 10 and a cup of tea will be served. Jean Ellicott gave the history of the institute fron. 1910 to 1967 outlining some of its major achievements.

UAW Negotiating Teams Bolstered By Canadians DETROIT (AP)--Three Cana- dians have been added to the nine-member United Auto Work- ers union negotiating committee for Chrysler Corp., apparently to strengthen union demands for wage parity between Canadian end American workers. UAW President Walter Reut- her, who has called equal pay for Canadian and American workers a "must," meets with the union's Chrysler council to- day. The Canadians were added to the committee Thursday. Assembly line workers in Chrysler's Canadian plants are paid about 30 cents an hour less than their American UAW broth- ers. Of the 95,000 UAW members employed by the firm, about 12,- 000 work in Canadian plants. The union said it would ask Chrysler to bargain on Canadian wages and working conditions. If the company agrees, this would be considered a giant stride toward single negotiations in both countries. NO SELECTION MADE The selection of a target com- pany, in the union's summer ne- auto companies, has not yet been determined, UAW officials said 'today. The Chrysler council said it was willing to leave the choice up to the union's international executive board. However, the 175 delegates in Detroit to shape union demands of Chrysler said they are "willing to carry the banner again" if the board de- sires them to negotiate the first contract. Last month, the UAW's Ford council asked for "the honor and distinction of leading the ne tiations," this year. Bargaining with the auto mak- ers will begin in early July with the union's contracts expiring Sept. 5. DIVORCE, MARRIAGES UP LONDON (CP) -- More Bri- tons are getting married, says a government report--but more marriages are breaking up. In 1965 there were more than 371,- 000 marriages, the highest since 1949. Divorces also reached the highest level since the immed- pg post-war years, almost 43,- MONTREAL (CP)--The Brit- ish had their day at Expo 67 Thursday and left fair - goers with the image of a Britain that really swings. Britain's national day opened with striped - pants ceremony, ramrod-stiff Royal Marines and a guard of honor, and ended with mini-skirts and fun-poling at hallowed institutions. At the official flag-raising in Place des Nations in the morn- ing, Commonwealth Secretary Herbert Bowden apologized for the absence of Prime Minister Harold Wilson -- "very grave reasons have prevented him from being with us." Before a crowd of 3,500 in the fair's great amphitheatre he paid '"'special tribute to Can- ada's deep faith in the Common- wealth and her constant efforts to make a success of this won- derful multi-racial 'conception." In the afternoon British enter- tainers compressed 2,500 years of their country's history into a 40-minute spectacular that had 7,000 spectators howling with laughter. MOCK TRADITION Against a massive backdrop with eight-foot statues of grin- ning bulldogs and Britannias in traditional garb, they mocked tradition and the class system. Girls in mini-skirts paraded in mini-cars and before the show was over even the Britannia sta- tues had been switched to mini- skirts. With the afternoon tempera- ture at 75 and a blazing sun, it was the hottest day since the fair opened April 27. Crowds re- sponded by coming in droves, although Thursday is normally a slow day.

And Britain's Day At Expo Swingingly Impressive had counted 206,251 compared with an expected crowd of 101,- 150. Total attendance so far has been 8,952,222. Prime Minister Wilson was originally to have been Britain's representative on British na- tional day but instead he flew to Ottawa for talks with Prime Minister Pearson and _ today goes to Washington 'to see Pres- ident Johnson. Mr. Bowden asked visitors to the British pavilion to "think not only of our ancient historic story, but of Britain in the world of today. "When you think of 'swing- ing' London, of our 'pop' groups, our long-haired young men and our short-haired mini - skirted young women -- think, too, of our achievement today in sci- ence and technology. .. ." TOUCHED ON CRISIS Later, in answer to a press conference question, he said Britain wants the major mari- time powers of the world to de- clare that the Gulf of Aqaba is free to the shipping of all na- tions, if the United Nations does not take such a declaration first. During the day Quebec trotted out some tradition of its own when a party of 12 soldiers was sent off on a 675-mile canoe trip to James Bay. They are follow- ing a fur-trade route blazed 281 years ago by French colonists. The soldiers, members of the Royal 22nd Regiment, expect to make the voyage in 45 days. jthese necessary conditions." now. occupy these benches have shown a desire to follow that course. Anyone who looks at the population of this Dominion-- of Nova Scotia, New Bruns- wick, Quebec and Ontario-- must see that while they dif- fer in very important charac- teristics they agree in this, that they are not extravagant or ostentatious in their habits, they are hardy, persevering, industrious and energetic, and possess all the qualities fitted for developing the resources of a new country. Though our wealth may not increase as rapidly as in some other climes, we spend little in ostentation and extrava- gance. Reproduction is stead- ier and more continuous. Price, Wage Rises Curbed By Opinion OTTAWA (CP)--Public opin- ion should become a guid t Exchange Rally Erases Losses TORONTO (CP) -- The Tor- onto Stock Exchange rallied to one of its best gains of the year Thursday and wiped out Wed- nesday's heavy loss. The indus- 'rial index climbed 1.25 to 162.69 after tumbling 1.20 Wed- nesday. The market is in a five-week slump and the industrial index has dropped more than seven points since April, Bank of Montreal and Indus- trial Acceptance paced the in- dustrials, gaining 1 each to 634% and 24. Alean added % at 32% and ITL Industries and a A % each at 33% and Western oils also rebounded, with Scurry-Rainbow up 1% to 23, Banff % to 12 and Central- Del Rio % to 11%. Hudson Bay climbed 2% to 62 in base metals, Denison backed Effective Economy Control Curbs Price Increases OTTAWA (CP) -- The Sharp budget talked strongly of man- aging the economy to avoid ex- cessive demands that lead to price increases. Finance Minister Sharp said Thursday in his budget speech the chief obstacle to stable growth in the next few years is excessive increases in prices and costs of production, "We should and can manage our economy to avoid excessive demand pressures that must re- sult in price increases." Mr. Sharp noted that he had talked about the. possibility of imposing some sort of wage- and-price guidelines, but he felt they were not practicable for Canada now. Instead, he planned to state the economic facts to mobilize off % at 68%. Kerr Addison rose % to 15% in golds. On index, golds climbed 2.19 to 169.92 and western oils 1.64 to 151.52, Base metals fell .33 to 94.83.

"Such an opinion can help persuade management, labor and government to follow prac- tices that will lead to a dampen- ing down of the upward sweep in consumer prices that has to restrain undue price and wage demands, Finance Minis- ter Sharp said in his budget speech. A major reason for last year's price upsurge was the trend to "get while the getting was good," taking advantage of a booming economy. Many wage demands went far beyond the gains in productivity and caused unwarranted increases in pro- duction costs. "From time to time during the last year I have spoken about the possibility of Canada adopting some sort of incomes policy or of guideposts for wage and price increases," Mr. Sharp said, This could only be accom- plished, however, with co-oper- ation from provincial govern- ments, business and labor. "Clearly, we do not now have Although guideposts were thus impractical, "T intend to con- tinue to state what the facts in- dicate to be possible and what they show to be illusory" in the way of justified wage and price increases, he said. Mr. Sharp said wages and prices should keep pace with productivity. Last year both were many times the gain in productivity -- the measure of output by each worker. YANKS RECALL VERBANIC NEW YORK (AP)--New York Yankees have recalled pitcher Joe Verbanic from their Syra- cuse farm club of baseball's In- ternational League to replace Whitey Ford who retired Tues- day. Verbanic appeared in seven games at Syracuse and dian government faces a major task in borrowing cash this year, Finance Minister Sharp said Thursday night. He said in his budget speech that the government's total cash requirements this year will be $1,520,000,000--more than double the $719,000,000 needed in the last fiscal year ended March 31. Major factor in the increase is the anticipated deficit of $740,000,000 compared with $428,000,000 for 1966-67, The gov- ernment also got about $230,- 000,000 last year from exchang- ing United States dollars and that is not expected to be re- peated. Mr. Sharp indicated that some from: the government's bank Government Borrowing Poses Major 1967 Problem OTTAWA (CP) -- The Cana- balances, but the government would be going 'into the money market this summer, ance March 31 was $796,000,000, including $188,000,000 collected under the refundable corpora- tion tax. About $52,000,000 of that tax will have to be repaid to corporations this year. Mr. Sharp said the largest de- mands for cash arise from loans, investments and ad- vances made to government agencies such as Central Hous- ing and Mortgage Corp. and Farm Credit Corp.

"Only by some care and re- straint on a wide scale this year can we slow down the rate of increases in costs and prices." PRICE INDEX UP He noted that the consumers price index rose 7.3 per cent in the last year and the rate has been going up recently for non- food categories. Wages and salaries have been rising faster than productivity. Unit labor costs have risen al- most six per cent in the last 12-month period for which fig- ures are available. Incomes have risen 17.6 per cent in the two year's since the last quarter of 1964, "If unchecked, such increases in costs and prices must lead to increasing inequity and dis- sension in the country and to a worsening of our competitive position vis - a - vis the United States. "This would impose a serious restraint on the growth of Ca- hadian industry and frustrate our efforts to maintain a steady rate of expansion in the jobs available for our growing labor force."
