She Oshawa Cimes 86 King St. E., Oshawa, Ontario Published by Canadian Newspopers Company Limited T. L. Wilson, Publisher E. C. Prince, Associate Publisher OSHAWA, ONTARIO, FRIDAY, JULY 21, 1967 Province Can Achieve Yet Another Good Year If the shoals and reefs of lengthy and costly labor-management diffi- culties can be avoided, Ontario is sailing smoothly to another good economic year. The province is not cruising to the production peaks attained in the past three years but the Ontario Department of Economics and De- velopment is predicting a four per cent increase in the gross provincial production for this Centennial Year. The Ontario Industrial Review, the annual! report of. the depart- ment, states while the 1967 growth rate will be below the expansion levels of recent years, an expected upturn in the North American econ- omy will see Ontario move again toward the optimum rate. The 1967 gross provincial product is expect- ed to total $24,300 million com- pared with $22,800 million last year. Real growth will represent four per cent of this increase, and price increases will account for three per cent. Here are some heartening high- lights of the review: In the past three years Ontario made "impressive progress" toward realizing and exceeding the econo- mic goals established for the 1963- 1970 period. The real gross provin- cial product has grown by 20.4 per cent since 1963; compared with the planned target of 5.5 per cent aver- age annually. Since 1963, total employment has risen by 268,000 to 2,650,000 jobs, exceeding the employment goal by 43,000 jobs. In 1966 the number of persons employed rose by 102,000, compared with the target of 75,000 new jobs. In productivity the economy has also run ahead of schedude. On- tario's goal for productivity im- provement is a compound annual rate of 2.5 per cent, while the ac- tual gain over the last three years has averaged 2.7 per cent. The slow- ing of the manufacturing sector, combined with continud rapid ex- pansion in the services sector, con- tributed to a lower productivity rise in 1966, compared with the two previous years. Ontario's export performance has also been "extremely satisfying." In 1966 there was a further rise in exports of manufactured goods of 63 per cent, placing the province far ahead of the export target to. date. General Comes As Guest The governments of Canada and Quebec, at odds on so many crucial issues, would appear to have found the faculty to compromise in regard to the visit of President Charles de Gaulle next week. So what is the special signifi- cance, they ask, attached to Gen- eral de Gaulle starting his tour in Quebec City? After all state visit- ors have arrived at cities other than Ottawa and then moved on to the nation's capital.' And, by a happy coincidence, Governor - General Michener will be in residence at the Citadel in Quebec City when the Grand Charlés arrives. He will be able to greet the distinguished visit- or in fitting manner -- assisted by a group of federal cabinet minis- She Oshawa Zimes 86 King St. E Oshowa, Ontorie LSON, Publisher Genera Maneoer Edit SUBSCRIPTION RATES The Oshawo Times he Oshowa Times festeplished it Gozette and chronicle Publi shes doily Sundoys o Membe ers Associa Association he s "ex DElUaIvely Gaited $6 she the Gf reproduction of all news despatched ed to it er to The Associated ond also the jocel rights of specio! des- 86 Netiono!

After that the Quebec provin- cial authorities will take charge of the tour. The itinerary for the five-day visit will be a taxing one for both the general and his security offi- cers. For a man of 76, he has un- dertaken a heavy schedule which brings him close to large numbers of people. The Quebee City and Montreal phases of the tour should give de Gaulle plenty of opportunity to pay tribute to the historic role of France in Quebec without forgetting mod- ern Canada and _ its pre-eminent role, The president's foray will inevi- tably be compared with the recent visit of Queen Elizabeth and Prince Philip, which in its effect was con- structive and calming so far as French-English relations were con- cerned. The success or the embarrass- ment resulting from the French leader's visit will, in the end, de- pend on the attitude of the distin- guished visitor himself. He has often proved himself not averse to creating difficulties. In this in- stance he has already indicated in- tention to turn a visit to Expo into a grand tour, perhaps to add to the image being fostered by Quebec as an independent state. The key to the situation really is that General de Gaulle remember Crono, Les Claremont, that he is a guest in Canada -- and f Obter ' F BSc per week of oriene for Canadians to remember the fact Countries, 7 00 per yeor, too. i AMA G {1.000070 1.4580E APES MPM NPN RNA Om NNT SAFETY STEPS VERGE ON DRASTIC {NAMA ns APTA A BT OTTAWA REPORT Pollution Solution In Federal Field By PATRICK NICHOLSON OTTAWA--The stomach trou- bles caused by Ottawa's pol- luted drinking water are so dis- astrous that special supplies of bottled pure non-Ottawa water have been arranged for impor- tant foreign visitors. This echoes the complaint made' in Parliament in 1954, by Mr. Diefenbaker that dead fish floated down the North Saskat- chewan river. and cattle would not drink its polluted water; that not even boiling could re- move the foul taste noticeable not only in plain water but even in coffee and porridge; nor would boiling eliminate the bac- teria causing intestinal upsets. This column has been one of those voices which repeatedly has expressed concern about the destruction of our priceless water resources 'through 'pollu- tion Long ago I reported "the fed- eral government, not usually over - delicate about observing the statutory limitations placed upon its powers, is shedding crocodile tears because it says it has no jurisidction to halt river pollution." TRESPASSED ONCE Yet if Ottawa can _ trespass into provincial responsibility to set up a medical scheme, why cannot it similarly trespass to create the medical safety of pure water? In 1955 an MP with legal training proposed a solution. He introduced a bill and explained to Parliament that: "as provin- cial legislation has proven in- effective to control the wanton pollution, by. municipalities and industrial concerns, of interpro- vincial rivers, the purpose of this bill is to amend the federal Criminal Code to provide pun- ishment for the offence of water pollution." The prime minister then, Lib- eral Louis St. Laurent, could and should have made it pos- sible for that amendment to be passed by Parliament; but he did not. Yet that MP kept up his attack on pollution, largely because the impurities in the North Saskatchewan river were fouling up the water supply of his home town, Prince Albert. Another time that MP his name was J. G. Diefenbaker-- told Parliament that at home he had, in the words of the poet Coleridge, "counted two and 70 stenches, all well defined, and several stinks." IDENTICAL WORDING In 1960 another MP, Bert Herridge of the Kootenays, with wit and astuteness introduced a bill to halt pollution. He ex- plained his bill had the identical wording of the bill introduced five years earlier by Mr. Dief- enbaker, who had now become prime minister. But even with that broad hint,. the father would not help his brainchild sponsored by Mr. Herridge. Lester Pearson is the third leader to live in our official Ot- tawa residence for prime min- isters. That house is sited at the confluence of the Ottawa, Rideau and Gatineau rivers, all polluted. In mid-summer their two and 70 well defined stenches are so intolerable that the prime minister's next door neighbor, the French am-bassa- dor, has sometimes been com- pelled to move out. Yet, while living in that house, Uncle Louie ignored the Diefenbaker bill, Dief ignored the Diefenbaker-Herridge bill, and Lester Pearson has done nothing to curb the multiplying pollution of air, oil and water, The Ontario Water Resources Commission has just announced untreated sewage and industrial waste dumped into the Ottawa River has raised pollution above the safety level for a stretch of 80 miles; in one swimming area this is more than 100 times the maximum tolerable. Ang- lers know Ottawa is a fishless desert; even teetotallers are driven to drink by the unpleas- ant taste of the water. If the federal government will not act: to halt this costly un- healthy and embarrassing situ- ation in our capital, what hope is there for our little Pos- sum Trot communities across Canada? Franco May Announce New Chief Of By HAROLD K. MILKS MADRID (AP)--Time seems to be running out so rapidly for Gen. Francisco Franco that many who know him well now predict he will lighten his offi- cial burdens before the summer ends by picking a new chief of government. How soon this step would be followed by. Franco's nomina- tion of a new chief of state to take over the second of the top national posts he has held since Oct. 1, 1936, is anybody's guess. Franco's own thinking on the subject remains hidden behind the 74-year-old Jeader's in- scrutable eyes. "Only Gen. Franco. knows when he will implement an im- portant segment of the constitu- tional laws naming a president of the national government," said another Spanish official. "There is no reason to think, in view of the current situation, that this action will be delayed long, and it could come during the summer holiday season." Spanish officialdom seems to have two thoughts on the mat- ter. One is that Franco's selec- tion of a successor as head of government, regardless of the BIBLE "Is there anything too hard for the Lord?"' Genesis 18:14 Anything is a little thing for the Lord to do. "With God all things are possible. According to your faith, so be it unto you." . TW State Soon pretext, might be taken as a sign of weakness. LIGHTEN LOAD The other is pushing for the chief to lighten the official load he has carried for so long in order that he might. hope to serve for a longer time in the top position. Regardless of these view- points, there are many highly- placed Spaniards who are push- ing as hard as they dare for Gen. Franco to take at least the first step. Normally. Gen, Franco and his government leave Madrid about the end of July for a two-month stay in the summer capitals of La Coruna and San Sebastian. If all signs are cor- rect, the Spanish Caudillo will do a lot of thinking on subjects other than his deep-sea' fishing during that outing. Gen. Franco ran into some opposition on a bill to broaden the powers of the National Movement, Spain's only legal political organization. SPELLS TROUBLE It was the first time in three decades that such widespread opposition to a proposal by his government had developed, and it signalled more trouble ahead when the even more difficult revision of the Spanish syndi- cate--labor organization--law reaches the legislative body. Most of the current opposition was to what critics called gov- ernment proposals to establish a monopoly for the National Movement after Franco has gone. More than 500 separate amendments were proposed. MORE THAN 5,000 DIED LAST YEAR Efforts Redoubled To Curb Traffic Toll By JOHN LeBLANC Canadian Press Staff Writer Under the lash of another record vear of highway deaths, just about everyone is redoubling efforts to clamp the lid down on the mounting toll Traffic fatalities passed the 6,000 mark for the first time in Canada during 1966, and a Cross-Canada Survey by The Canadian Press shows they are off to a faster start than ever this year in some prov- inces. The survey shows that all provinces are taking measures of one kind or another to im- prove safety, from stepping up driver education programs to toughening the law. Some steps verge on the drastic. New clamps on drinking drivers, particularly, are stiffer in some provinces. British Columbia recently started up a roadside breath- analysis test. If the driver de- clines to take it, his licence is eutomatically suspended for 24 hours. If he takes it and fails, a charge follows. "It looks* encouraging and while there have been more eccidents so far this year, there have been fewer fatal- ities,' says Ray Hadfield, as B.C. superintendent of motor vehicles.. Deaths in the first four months dropped to 146 ends. determined by a breath analysis tences to be served on week- be given jail sen- proves a safe and comforta- ble headgear. New Brunswick: New legis- lation will require used car from 161 Jast year. New Brunswick is intensify- ing this year a system of breath - analysis tests. Two analyzers were in operation last year--in the Moncton ang Fredericton areas -- and the number is being increased to seven spread over the whole province. The tests are not compul- sory in N.B., but refusal may bring licence suspension by the registrar of motor vehi- cles for any period up to four months.. A spokesman for the motor vehicle branch says the system is a "definite aid" to highway safety Alberta is clamping down on drinking drivers with Jegisla- tion passed this year to pro- vide a minimum one - year licence suspension on convic- tion of drunk or impaired driving. In Saskatchewan, a special committee on highway traffic and safety set up in 1965 re- commended to the legis'ature in February that persons found driving with more than 08 per cent blood-alcohol level Such tests now can be used only as corroborative ev- idence in court but the high- way traffic board can suspend a licence for refusal to take the test. Attorney - General D. V. Heald says Saskatchewan will consider legislation in line with the recommendation un- less the federal government acts 'within a reasonable time.'"' Meanwhile, the legis- lature this year passed a bill raising the demerit poinis for impaired driving. MANY STEPS TAKEN Apart from cracking down on drinking drivers, here is a rundown on some measures taken around the provinces: Newfoundland: B e gi nners' licences now are required and persons on motorcycles must wear crash helmets. Nova Scotia: Safety educa- tion staff has been expanded, and legislation requiring mo- toreycle helmets adopted. The helmet statute will go into ef- fect only when the Canadian Standards Association ap dealers to give buyers a his- tory of vehicle ownership and to certify road-worthiness of ears. A course for driver training instructors is planned for this summer. P.E...: Lettered traffic signs are being replaced by symbols, though the lettering will be carried over for a few years to let motorists get ac- customed to the change. Quebec: Legislation to In- crease penalties for unsafe driving may be introduced at the current session of the leg- islature, but there is no in- formation on details. Ontario: New legislation re- quires doctors to advise the transport department of any patients with conditions mak- ing it dangerous for them to drive. Used car dealers now must remove licence plates from any used car before sel)- ing it unless they can certify it is roadworthy in respect to tie rod ends, tires, lights, brakes, steering, rear - view mirror, horn and windshield ANYBODY SHauco BE ABS To SWALLOW THAT TRYING TO WATER IT DOWN mney MANN HAMM en FOREIGN AFFAIRS ANALYSIS Vision Of Racial Horror e By PHILIP DEANE Foreign Affairs Analyst It is inevitable and necessary to think, occasionally, of the un- thinkable--even if this leads to a vision of horror as in the case of America's racial problem. Should present trends contin- ue, the problem' will get worse and remain insoluble, White people will continue moving away every time Negro fami- lies move into white neighbor- hoods or Negro children move into white schools; such migra- tions. are only partly racial. People flee before an incursion of slum dwellers, whatever the color; man does not want his child associating with lower so- cial groups. These zre very old drives that operate even in so- cieties of a single color. This migration of the whites, if it continues, will leave the downtown of every large Amer- ican city to the Negroes. If the office buildings and shops for whites in an old negro down- town lose customers or feel threatened by the slum dwellers the businesses and shops will move to the white suburbs; the suburban shopping plazas show that the business follows the economic groups among which it finds its workers and custom- ers. With the exodus of the whites, the tax receipts of large cities will drop. The Negroes remain- ing in the city will lose jobs be- cause businesses will move out. They will be less able than before to find employment be- cause employers will be too far away. The income of the city's inhabitants will drop in_ this way too, and the city's tax re- ceipts will drop further. AID WILL DROP The municipal governments, consequently, will be less able TODAY IN HISTORY By THE CANADIAN PRESS July 21, 1967... John T. Scopes, science teacher in Dayton, Tenn., was found guilty of teach- ing the theory of evolution in contravention of state law 42 years ago today--in 1925. Scopes agreed to be- come a test case for the American Civil Liberties Union when T be- to help their slum dwellers and the ghetto will remain, getting worse in all probability, filling with frustrated, desperate and increasingly savage people who may, for a period, be less no- ticed, because they will not have white neighbors to bother. Should the Negroes try to draw attention to their plight in the misery of their ghettos by invading the nearest white areas, they will encounter in- creasing armed resistance, Police forces in white com- munities will be strengthened and ordered to be toughter; there will be more and more of the white mutual protection so- cieties that have already emerged in many U.S. cities. Negroes will be allowed to visit white communities and even to do business there, eat in restaurants or use white ho- tels; but attempts at demon- strations will be broken by armed force. In fact, the next state in the American racial tragedy, may well be the trans- formation of the city centre in each metropolis into a reserva- tion where the black minority is confined by armed force. Municipal governments, de- prived of alluent white tax pay- ers will be helpless. State gov- ernments, still gripped by an anti-city mentality will do little. The white majority, in other words, will not tax itself unduly to help a rampaging colored minority; it will instead, con- tain it. In the next article: IS THERE A WAY OUT? Invitation To Join French Turned Down By Acadians By BOB BOWMAN One of the great tragedies of Canadian history was the expul- sion of the Acadians in 1755. They brought it on themselves because they refused to take the oath of allegiance to Brit- ain. This was a danegrous situa- tion because they lived in Nova Scotia while France occupied Cape Breton and what is now New Brunswick. The Acadians even guided some French and Indian attacks on Nova Scotia. Although the Acadians had difficult times finding new homes, many stayed in Louisia- na and the "Cajuns" are their descendants. Fortunately, many managed to get back to their old homes after Britain captured Canada from France and the Acadians were no longer a threat. There are about 200,000 Acadians in the Maritimes, one of them being Premier Louis: J. Robi- chaud of New Brunswick. Ironically, he became pre- mier on July 12, 1960, the Or- ange anniversary! There are 100,000 Acadians in Quebec, and another 200,000 in the New Eng- land states. SOUGHT UNION Quebec made several efforts to try to form a union with the Acadians, One attempt was in June, 1880, when a delegation came the first state to re- spond to fundamentalist pressure and legislats against any "theory that denies the story of the di- vine creation of man as taught in the Bible." Tno - case became a world-wide sensation though the judge prevented any debate on tne constitutionality of the law. 1780--Americans attacked the British at Bergen Neck, NJ, 1959 -- Federal court in New York ruled Lady Chat- terley's Lover is not ob- scene. ? First World War Fifty years ago today--in 1917 -- mutiny along the whole northern Russian line in Galicia forced retreat on a wide front; Austro-Ger- man forces attacked near the confluence of the Rim- nik and Sereth Rivers as fighting resumed in Ro- mania. Second World War Twenty-five years ago to- day -- in 1942 -- RAF and RCAF bombers attacked Duisburg and other Ruhr Valley targets; U.S. subma- rines sank three Japanese destroyers off Kiska in the Aleutians; a German tank , thrust threatened Rostov. 4 wmmrmn a MRT from the Maritimes was invited to attend a convention of the St. Jean Baptiste Society at Que- bec. The objective was to con- solidate French influence in Canada but the Acadians turned down the invitation. They were proud of the fact that they had developed sep- arately from Quebec, and did not want to be obscured by union. Another effort was made on July 21, 1881, when the Aca- dians held their own conference at Memramcook, New Bruns- wick. It was attended by such nota- bles as Honorable Wilfrid Lau- rier, Sir Hector Langevin, and J.C. Rheaume, editor of La Presse. Once again the Aca- dians rejected the idea of a union of French speaking Cana- dians. Acadian festivals are now col- orful features in the Maritimes during the summer, especially along "'the French shore" of Nova Scotia between Digby and Yarmouth, OTHER JULY 21 EVENTS 1667 -- Treaty of Breda re- stored Acadia to France. 1721 -- Father Charlevoix be- gan survey of French claims in North America, 1730 -- Population of Canada was estimated to. be 33,682. LA QUEEN'S PARK Most Tories Stay Clear Of Contest By DON O'HEARN TORONTO--It had been ex- pected that provincial Progres+ sive Conservative members would not be taking much part in the party's national leader- ship contest. It was felt that the immence of a provincial election together with the quite definite separa- tion that exists between the fed- eral and provincial parties would mean most members would be inclined to stay on the sidelines. This probably applies to many of the members, At least it seems to as of now But others have been getting {nto the fight. One of the early members te declare himself was Alan Ea- gleson, the prominent young lawyer who represents Toron- to-Lakeshore. Mr. Eagleson fs one of our better known members, Not so much for his activities in the house, but through representing Bobby Orr and other athletes and for his hand in organizing a hockey players association, SUPPORTS FULTON Mr. Eagleson came out for Davie Fulton. How much good this may do the western contender in actual support is problematical. Mr. Eagleson probably doesn't com- mand much of a following in the provincial party. It is one of the facts of politi- ca life that when it comes to straight political matters it is the quiet men, rather than the colorful ones, who hold the strongest block of votes. However with Mr. Eagleson in his camp Mr. Fulton could do well in publicity. The Lake- shore member has shown he knows how to make the news pages, Another member who has given his public support to a candidate is Lou Hodgson of Scarborough East. Mr. Hodgson fs supporting Alvin Hamilton. As a horse-breeder on the side Mr. Hodgson would be at- tracted to Mr. Hamilton's farng background. SUPPORT SCARCE However, the former federal minister of agriculture proba- bly won't get too much support in the province. The big question, of course, ts whether Premier Robarts will throw his support behind any- one, It isn't likely he will do this publicly. He would have little to gain by doing so. And he could suf- fer. There are always factions that come out of leadership conventions with hurt feelings. And with an election coming up Mr. Robarts wouldn't want to lose the support of these fac- tions in the province. Probably, however, he will do some discreet steering behind the scenes. And it seems this well might be for Duff Roblin if the Manitoba premier is in the race, YEARS AGO 20 YEARS AGO July 21, 1947 City Council voted to buy a new fire pumper unit at a cost of $7,000 to replace the 1920 pumper now in use.
