She Oshawa Cimes 86 King St. E., Oshawa, Ontario Published by Canadian Newspapers Company Limited : T. L. Wilson, Publisher E. C. Prince, Associate Publisher OSHAWA, ONTARIO, WEDNESDAY, AUGUST 9, 1967 Longtime Police Chief Devoted Public Servant In the death last week of Owen D. Friend, who served as Oshawa's chief of police for 35 years, the city has lost a devoted public servant who contributed much to the com- munity. Joining the police force when Oshawa was still a town, his ability resulted in his rapid promotion to the position of chief. It was during his term of office that Oshawa be- came a city. Under his direction the force was enlarged to meet the de- mands of a growing community. His administrative ability was person- ified by the fact that this was ac- complished in such a manner that the department gained in integrity and stature. Of him it might be said that he treated all men alike, without fear or favor, in the performance of his duty. This gained him the respect not only of the men whom he directed but also by all citizens of Oshawa. It was during his term of office It was a period when tempers were at the breaking point. The fact that no violence broke out was due in some~ measure to his coolness in times of stress and the high regard in which he and members of his de- partment were held by all citizens. A man of many parts, one of his great loves was his rose garden on which he lavished loving care, Perhaps next to his heart was his association with the Masonic Order in which he was honored by his ap- pointment as a grand steward. A master of Temple Lodge, he had served as secretary for Ontario Dis- trict and at the time of his death was secretary of his lodge. Since his retirement Ex-chief Friend had given generously of his time as a member of the board of directors of the Oshawa Housing Company where his main objective was to provide suitable housing for the city's senior citizens. His know- ledge of the city and its people was of inestimable value in this field. Possessed of a keen sense of humor he was held in high regard by high and low alike not only in the field in which he was active for so many years; but also by all citizens of the community. Ottawa Saves Money??? Whenever there's talk today of a government showing an inclination to saving money the story is in the man-bites-dog category. It's news! Such a story has come from the Ottawa Bureau of The Times. The report indicates that a do-it-yourself national census may be taken in 1971 which could save money for the taxpayer. Canada's 1971 census may be a do-it-yourself affair, according to Walter Duffett, the Dominion Sta- tistician. He revealed that a test census to be held in London, Ontario in September will largely determine if the next national census is con- ducted largely by mail. "This will be our first mailed rensus test, so we don't really know Bye Oshaton Times al. Manager ECHY,.

"But we have observed similar tests in the United States and we expect there will be a num- ber of advantages." Among these he listed the fact that all questionnaires are to be re- turned on the same day instead of the week or two required for a door- to-door census; a more accurate cen- sus because the householders will have more time to consider their answers; the fact. that the .ques- tions can be answered privately instead of personal questioning; and the point that the mail census may be a potential money-saver. The cost of taking the census in Canada 'is rising sharply. The 1961 census cost about $16 million and the 1971 census could cost as much as $30 million. If the London test is a success, then the same system would be put into effect in 1971, but only for urban areas, Mr. Duffett said. Rural householders will still be questioned by the door-to-door census taker.

Tactics 'Give Break' To Drivers By DON O'HEARN TORONTO--There is strong interest here in the new. ap- proach toimpaired driving being taken in British Colume bia. Police cars--with specially trained officers--are being equipped with breathalizers in BC If an officer suspects a driver of drinking he can offer him a breathalizer on the spot. If the driver takes the test and it shows only a mild alco- hol rating he is allowed to go on his way. If it is above the standard his keys are lifted for 24 hours. If he refuses to take the test he also loses his car for a day. In no case (except; obviously, if there is serious impairment) is a charge laid, LIKE APPROACH Our people like this approach particularly because it gives the driver a break As it is now in Ontario a driv- er that is stopped and has been drinking stands a good chance of being charged. His only out is to take a breathalizer test. And most drivers shrink from these. The important point in having driving: and drinking laws, of course, is not to punish, but to keep drivers that have been drinking off the road. And the authorities close to the problem feel that most driv- ers would willingly accept this fact new system, in many would welcome it. NO POINTS LOST If they knew that at most they were only going to lose their keves for a day--in B.C. (there isn't even a loss of points) -- in many cases they would willingly hand them over. At present, of course, with the threat of a possible crimi- nal charge hanging over their heads, most drivers who have had anything at all to drink re- sist any enforcement steps. The 24 hour system, it is felt, would be better both for respect for the law and safer highways. There are no plans at present to adopt the system here. Ottawa has indicated it will be changing the drinking-driv- ing sections in the Criminal Code--probably this fall. Ontario officials will want to see these changes before mak- ing any recommendations. But if they consider them in- adequate it would seem quite likely we eventually 'will adopt the B.C. system.

In the U.S., the urban cores, populated by Negroes, explode in violence triggering counter- violence that threatens to shat- ter all accepted political pat- terns. The Negroes are getting attention but they are also get- ting killed and the whites are organizing into vigilante mobs; some cities talk of using new exotic gases that will not kill a rioting mob but imbue it with almost psychotic fear.

His victory over the British at Oswego in 1756 had earned him great respect from the Indians. When it became known that he planned to attack the British Fort at Lake George in 1757, the Indians swarmed to Mont- real to join his force. They even included Sacs from the borders of Wisconsin, buffalo hunters from Kickapoos from Lake Michigan, Abenakis and Micmacs from the Atlantic coast Montreal is famous for its gay life and wild parties, but nothing could compare with the spring of 1757. French soldiers and their beautifully-gowned la- dies mingled on the streets with thousands of practically naked Indians who were painted reid, white, and blue, and wore plumes on their heads. Montcalm had sent scouts through the country to get In- dian support but the response was overwhelming. There wasn't enough food for them. French supply ships had been late arriving, and the inhabit- ants had been reduced to eating horsemeat. Practically all that POUL RT TO JOIN BRAZILIA IN DECADE Pakistan Capital Blends Oriental, Modern By RALPH JOSEPH Canadian Press Correspondent RAWALPINDI (CP)--Just 10 miles out of Rawalpindi is an idyllic little city nestling in an ,undulating landscape with a backdrop of low green hills. This is Islambad, Presi- dent Ayub Khan's dream and Pakistan's new capital. Five years ago it did not exist and Pakistanis are proud of it It's almost too good to be true. The houses are neat and pretty, rising from the green hills in brick-red and grey with spots of white, blue and yellow. The roads are broad, clean Lamp-posts sproud along their sides like over-sized flowers, Wires are all cunningly bur- ied away to keep them from marring the beauty of the place. The big buildings, if not quite as futuristic as one would have expected, attempt to blend the old oriental de- signs with new ideas in archi- tecture. If they do not recap- ture the evasive splendor of the Moguls, the effect is not unpleasant. NO SLUMS Happily, the oriental squal- or, preserved in the more an- cient portions of Rawalpindi itself, is conspicuously ab- sent. Perhaps the population, 50,000 by official estimates, is old. A ride around the entire city takes about 15 minutes. The civil secretariat build- American embassy chancery and the British Council were located in a suburb of Rawal- too small yet to re-create the homely poverty of the East. Or perhaps, if the city's plan- ners have got it right, Isla- mabad will never see squalor --for all the modern ideas of town-planning have been ap- plied to avoid the congestion of streets found in the gener- ally unplanned older cities. What one sees is really just a promise, for only a portioa of the new city has been com- pleted. The president's house is still a blueprint while the Supreme Court building has not even reached that stage. From the looks of it, perhaps the city won't be quite ready to join Canberra and Brazilia as a complete new capital for yet another decade. TAXIS WARY As of now, it-even lacks its own local administration. The visitor is apt to be at the mercy of transport. There is, of course, a bus service be- tween Rawalpindi and isla- mabad, but buses do not ply within the new city itself. Taxis are also reluctant to go the necessarily short dis- tances within the city's bor- ders and are on the look-out for passengers shuttling be- tween the new city and the ( ing has been prepared and the drones from some of the ministries and departments are functioning there. Cabinet meetings and National As- sembly sessions are also being held in the new city. But the president and iis ministers sit in Rawalpindi and a good number of govern- ment departments and {tor- eign embassies are still crowded into the old military city. STILL FEW DIPLOMATS About 14 ambassadors nave taken up residence in Islam- bad itself. The rest of them, and of course practically the entire embassy staffs, are still in Rawalpindi and its suburbs. One sees few if any foreign faces in the new capi- tal, though a good number are in Rawalpindi. The situation is something like this. I saw the flags of Cunada, Australia, Britain and the United States, among others, flying over ambassa- dorial bungalows in Islama- bad, but the chanceries of :he Canadian and Australian high commissions, side by side with the new USIS build:nz, are found in crowded Saddar Bazar in Rawalpindi. The . pindj. In the same place wera the ambassador's residence as well as chanceries. of the Jranian and Japanese embas- sies. And so on. There is no question of any of the embassies staying in Karachi. The foreign missions were told that those who stayed on in Karachi would be reduced to consular status. This caused a sudden exodus of the foreign missions from Karachi--where rents fell dramatically, much to the re- lief of the local inhabitants. But rents rose equally dra- matically in Rawalpindi. COST TO GROW Some 350,000,000 rupees ($79,000,000 Canadian) have been spent on the new capital since it was planned eight years ago. The priorities were arranged so that accom- modation for the lowest gov- ernment employees was built first. These were plain low- cost houses. As accommoda- tion for more and more sen- ior officials is built, in a more expensive and elaborate style, the expenditure will rise proportionally. Thus for this year alone 110,000,000 ru- pees ($25,000,000) have been budgeted for the city. was gone. The Indians were looking forward to replensihing food supplies by cooking British soldiers. When Montcalm set out to capture Fort William Henry on Lake George he had more than 8,000 men including nearly 2,000 Indians. The fort surrendered on Aug 9, 1757, but Montcalm could not keep the Indians under control although he shouted 'Kill me, but spare the English who are under my protection." The massacre inspired Fenimore Cooper's book The Last of the Mohicans.

Strikes are looming, students increasingly protest. the draft, intellectuals rebel against the Vietnamese war. Russia, approaching the 50th anniversary of its revolution finds its leadership split, its sa- tellites disobedient, its diploma- cy thwarted, its proteges defeat- ed and its wisdom rejected by other Communist societies that turn to Castro or to Mao for guidance. MUST SACRIFICE On one side, Russia's Euro- pean satellites wholeheartedly espouse capitalist rules about goals, profits and good manage- ment, on the other side, the New Left rejects such things and says that regardless of pro- duction, income or reality, the poor, the oppressed, the de- spised must be given what they want and that Moscow must sacrifice to give it. But Mao, who has read such sermons to Moscow, finds his countrymen rebelling against him because he has not applied the sermon at home, finding it impossible to apply; instead of dispensing happiness, he has demanded harder and harder work. This has produced nu- clear weapons and--soon--in- tercontinental rockets, but not the satisfaction people expect out of revolutions. On a more primitive plane, this has been true in Africa where freedom has not pro- vided the native overnight with the prosperity his former mas- ters had and which he dreamed of acquiring. Everywhere, the, frustrated strike out blindly or propose to strike out, as the opponents of the Russian leadership propose. Beyond the violence, there is no clear objective.

Mao knows that verbal violence has set him back. The Arab leaders know their violence led them to defeat but they have nothing but more vio- lence to offer their people. It feels good at such a time to take a break for reflection, trusting, alas, in the Russian and American nuclear arsenals to 'maintain the balance of ter- ror and freedom from war for yet another month. 7 sit OSHWEKEN RESERVE, NEAR ONTARIO.

He said over the week-end that he would not follow that trans - Canada tour idea - with @ speech in each province-as proposed by some of his sup- porters. He said one of his early moves will have to do with the ap- pointment of a national cam- paign manager Allister Gro- sart, the junior senator from Pickering Township who help- ed to master - mind John Dief- enbaker's ascent into the prime minister's office, will assist Mr. Starr with his campaign, but he will not have the role of campaign manager, the On- tario MP said. Senator Grosart was in Oshawa recently to meet with Mr. Starr and executive members off the local riding association. Mr. Starr re - affirmed again that he will not be "a puppet" for a campaign manager (a di- rect reference to George Hees who .has been getting many of his directions from Robert Mac- Caulay, former Provincial min- ister of Economic Development, The former minister of La- bor in the Diefenbaker cabinet did not attend this weck's Pro- gressive Conservative meet- ing in the suburban resort of Maison Montmorency, near Que- bec City, for contenders in the PC leadership race. The conference was called to produce suggestions and guide- lines for the 400-member policy advisory committee of the parts, which meets in Toronto immed- jately before the Sept. 6-9 lead- ership convention. The Quebec pow-wow is known in party circles as 'a thinkers" conference. The original idea for the meet- ing is reported to have come from Party President Dalton Camp, but it does not seem to have widespread support from all of those who would take over the party's national leadership. OWEN D. FRIEND Owen D. Friend often said that Oshawa's first police chief was a jack - of - all - trades Irishman named Pengelley who was generally regarded as "quite a man," Pengelley carried a black thorn stick. He was most adept at whacking delinquent young- sters who ignored his heated commands; if they attempted escape, he sometimes tripped them by throwing the stick be- tween their legs. Pengelley once jumped un- armed from his lumber wagon to apprehend (single-handed) a would - be robber in Felt's jewelry store. Owen Friend loved to vivid- ly reminisce about such inci- dents from Oshawa's historical past because, for many years, he played an integral part in the development of the commun- ity. A strong link with Oshawa's horse - and - buggy era came to. an end when he died last week at 79 after a lengthy illness. He took over as chief of police in 1919 when the force totalled no more than four men; when he retired April 30, 1954, to be succeeded by Chief Her- bert Flintoff, the face of the city changed drastically. Chief Friend fought a long and sometimes disheartening battle to bolster the force's man- power, especially when GM built the north plant and hund- reds of outsiders flocked here looking for work. His depart- ment was then governed by the town council, several of whose members opposed new financial committments. A po- lice commission was appointed in 1924 when Oshawa became a city. It was composed of the mayor, county judge and town magistrate, but he rarely did get as many constables as he deemed to be necessary for effective law enforcement. The ex-chief was more than a conscientious and highly-cap. able public servant who serv- ed the community well during the depression and the trying years of expansion. He was a man with a great capacity for lasting friendships, which was evidenced last week when news of his death spread. The Motor City is poorer for his passing. Australian Schools Upset By Come-To-Canada Ads --MELBOURNE (CP)--Linsay Thompson, minister of educa- tion in the Australian state of Victoria, might not admit it publicly, but he's not very happy with Canada and Cana- dians these days. His school teachers have been on strike twice in the last 18 months and are permanently on the fringe of further militant action over poor pay and working condi- tions. For months, tantalizing ad- vertisements have been appear- ing in Australian newspapers urging teachers to migrate to Canada. The response is report- ed to be "overwhelming." This is what is upsetting Thompson. Already faced with teacher rebelliousness over old TODAY IN By THE CANADIAN PRESS Aug. 9, 1967 .....
