_ 12. THE OSHAWA TIMES, Mondey, October 16, 1967 | 1 U.S. Report | Erroneous * Says Writer | } By WILFRED BURCHETT | HAIPHONG (AP)--The U.S. communique reporting direct hits by American planes Thurs- day on shipyards and a big mili- | tary barracks in Haiphong was | inaccurate. The first and main raid in the small hours of the morning in fact demolished a large hospital | convalescent complex, unoccu- pied except by two caretakers and the four-year-old daughter of one of them. All three were killed in their beds. At least 20 bombs--500 and 1,000 pounders--landed square on the complex, which was almost a total wreck. In other early-morning raids, bombs fell in the Lach Tray River, about three miles south- west of the city and surrounding ricefields, wounding a 37-year-| old peasant woman and a 14- year-old girl. I visited both bombing sites a few hours after the attacks. | FERRY STATION HIT | A third raid at mid-day was against a ferry station more than a mile from the ship repair yards. The ferry station had been heavily attacked some! weeks earlier. | The U.S. command in Saigon | reported heavy damage Thurs- | day to two Haiphong shipyards, one on the Lach Tray River and the other on the Cua Cam River, as well as to a big. military base just south of the city where Rus-| sian missiles and helicopters are! assembled. | In talks with Haiphong Mayor Le Duc Thinh and other city of- ficials, it was claimed that one-/ third of the city's residential areas had been destroyed, main-| ly in heavy raids which started | Sept. 1 and were intensified in| recent days. They claimed that in nine at-| tacks Oct. 3-7, Haiphong had) been hit with 620 500- and 1,000-| 'pound bombs; 45 CBU "mother"'| bombs, each average 300 tennis 'pall-sized fragmentation bombs; . 527 rockets and 32 missiles. In the following three days, they said, night attacks were made with a total of 124 high-ex- plosive bombs and numerous) missiles and rockets. | In a tour of the city, heavy de-| struction was obvious in residen- tial areas, especially in the most densely populated Hong~ Bang ward, one of three city wards. | RECEIVE ll CHANNELS ALL WITH GRYSTAL CLEAR RECEPTION YOUR ANTENNA or TOWER IS WORTH $35 TO YOU FOR A LIMITED TIME ONLY!

Dutch Request | Free Speech | VATICAN CITY (AP )--The Dutch delegation to the R Catholic world laymen's con- s called Saturday for areaf-| ation of the te | freedom of speech. _ The move came a day after a controversial directive from) Maurice Cardinal Roy of Quebec) to bishops attending the con-| gress to help the laymen avoid) doctrinal errors. | The cardinal's aides insisted) the main purpose of the direc- tive was to prevent bishops from interfering during the lay de-| bates. But many among the 2,-) 500 delegates to the congress took the Roy directive as an at- tempt by the hierarchy to muz-) -zle unorthodox discussion of such issues as birth control. The dutch issued a letter to the congress' steering commit- tee and to other delegations. Referring to the Roy directive, the letter said the Dutch did not think it useful "to lay undue stress on the rather paternalistic tone in treating with the possible theological and other insufficien- cies of the laymen." NOTHING CHANGED "In our interpretation of the words of Cardinal Roy, nothing has really changed in the struc- ture and the intentions of the congress, which is and was to give responsible laymen from! all over the world the opportu- nity to express themselves: freely on the. subject of the re- newal of the church, CARS KILL FEWER i Traffic deaths in Italy de-| creased three per cent in 1966 to 8,720 despite an increase in| traffic volume. ; j Fe pone | moran ome ya i dt H att ~~ / if you have CABLE T.V. installed NOW -- "and you trade in your tower eerial and Hay end have thet unsightly aerial removed et the same time! ici ic A NF * voter, we will install your CABLE T.¥.

It is a service which delivers a wider selection of TV stations to your set -- with perfect re- ception from each, without any need for an aerial. The signals are received by a large sen- sitive master antenna system located on high land outside the city. Amplifiers boost signal strength and co-axial cable erected by the Telephone Company conveys these signals to your home, allowing you to watch what you want -- when you want it. This new form of TV reception has already been adopted by over 2200 cities and towns in Canada and the U.S.A. DO YOU NEED A ROOF ANTENNA? No... the television cable eliminates the need for unsightly, inefficient an- tennas, which cannot compare with all-season reception via_ television cable. Interference does not affect cable TV as is the case with roof an- tennas adjacent to streets which carry heavy vehicular traffic. HOW IS IT INSTALLED IN YOUR HOME? Your Television set is connected to the TV cable which runs along the street or through your yard with the telephone cable that serves you. The connecting wire is smaller than a lead pencil and it enters your house as neatly as your telephone line. No outside antenna is required. DO YOU SIGN A CONTRACT ? No... when the cable is installed you simply pay a 9.95 installation charge, plus 4.95 monthly. If you wish to have your FM connect- ed at the same time, a small additional hook- up charge only is made. Your 4.95 monthly payment covers both from then on. Accounts are always payable one month in advance. Since there is no contract, there is no obliga- tion for any period of time.
