Ohe Oshawa Gines 86 King St. E., Oshawa, Ontario Published by Canadian Newspapers Company Limited- T. L. Wilson, Publisher E. C. Prince, Associate Publisher OSHAWA, ONTARIO, MONDAY, NOVEMBER 6, LaMarsh A 1967 Comdidate To House Clean CBC ? Secretary of State Judy La- Marsh hardly produced a revelation when she remarked that there was "rotten 'management' in the Can- adian Broadcasting Corporation. Her choice of terms might have been better.

Mis Marsh is responsible to par! id thus to the Can- adian people for the operation of the Canadian Broadcasting Corporation, It is not her role to charge that the management is ) that it should be, it is sure her responsi- bility to endeavor to do something about it As her comments have so often been prone to in the past, they have y sent p amentarians off on time--when constructive consideration of the future of the CBC through debate of the hro ting bill seemed _pos- ~ sible. That the present government has. been sadly ineffective in deal- ing with tl lisptitable but that a r of that government should become a critie of it is too incomprehensible. By her as yet unsubstantiated allegation she has marshalled sup- port. for the CBC personnel at a time when their methods of oper- ations should be subjected to severe scrutiny not sympathetic under- standing. The high-on-the-hog operations of the CBC at a time when the government is under pressure to re- duce spending has reached the pro- portions of a national scandal. Miss LaMarsh has added to this pressure. She has already announced that she does not intend to seek re-elec- tion. She has been unable in more than a year to find a new president for the corporation. Her recent com- ment has added considerabl* to the finding one. Yet, aside from such faux pas, Miss LaMarsh is recognized as an intelligent and highly-competent Canadian.

There are those, in Ottawa and Washington, who have begun feeling slight misgivings at the possibility of such a treaty play- ing into General de Gaulle's hands and leading to the dis- bandment of Nato and the War- Saw pact. In August, General de Gaulle advised European countries to follow the example of France and take steps to avoid becom- ing a battlefield for America and Ruséia. During his visit to Poland; the French leader is known to have proposed to Go- mulka-a new European settle- ment involving a withdrawal from Europe of Russian troops, on one side, and Canadian, Brit- ish and American troops on the other. East Germany would be rec- tenized as an independent state by Europeans (whatever Amer- ica might think) and German reunification would not be possi- ble except with Russian and French approval. The two Ger- Czech- manies, Austria, Poland, oslovakia, Hungary and any other European country that cared to join, would be declared a nuclear free zone. It is this last aspect of de Gaulle's pro- posals that fits in well with the treaty to ban the spread of nu- clear weapons, PSYCHOLOGICAL GAP What makes the scheme at- tractive and possible is not de Gaulle's magnetism but the in- creasing psychological gap be- tween Europe and America. Eu- ropean officials allied to the United States and still hoping for aid or trade concessions are deliberately discreet and equiv- ocal when. they criticize Wash- ington; they are franker in their talks with the editors of their best papers and with the aca- demics who dea! in matters of foreign policy. A rash of learned articles on relations with the U.S. has ap- peared in Europe expressing deep anxiely over the American cult for violence.

Oil Found At Peirolia At 85-Foot Level In 1860 By BOB BOWMAN Something like the invention of the telephone, there's an ar- gument between Canadians and Americans over the first oil well. Canadians say that the oil was pr ed near Pe- , Ont., in The Ameri- cans claim that the first well was at Titusville, Penn., in 1859. The difference is in semantics. The oil near Petrolia was dug but the well in Titusville was drilled The first oil boom in Alberta was not until 1901 shortly after soldier-of-fortune Kootenai Brown got some Indians to look for a fluid that looked like mo- lasses, but smelled like kero- sene Charles N. Tripp of Wood- stock, Ont., was Canada's oil pioneer. He used the gum beds ir the Oil Springs area to make asphalt, and then sold his busi- ness to James M. Williams of Hamilton who had made a for- tune building carriages and rail- way cars. READERS WRITE PENSION BOOST could Mr. Editor: According to the news from Ottawa the old age security pension is to be increased. The increase is to be 2 per cent raisings the nionthly pay- ments from $75.00 to $76.50. This--is indeed --a--wonderfut centennial present to all those people who will be 67 vears old next January 1 (1968). It is four years since the last raise in the old age security pension. Hast vear (1966) the cost-of live ing went up 4 per cent. This eyear it will be 5 per cent at the end no doubt. In 1965 it was 3 per cent and 1964 about the same. © That is the cost of living has risen about 15 per cent since the last raise in the pension. The original $75.00 in 1963 would be worth now in food and shelter $62.00. Oh yes, there is a_supple- mentary increase to the basic $75.00 when a person has no other income. A few pensioners benefit from this but the vast majority of the one million and one half old. people (over 67) do not, The $75.00 is -given to all people who have reached the age of 67 next January. "To the 'heroes who through the depression went 1930, 1940 and helped make Canada: what it is a good way to re- member our 100th birthday would be to raise the old age security pension from $75.00 to $100.00 a month and then' tack a real cost of living index on to that. Thanking you, I remain yours, JAMES CORSE Williams devised a method of digging oil so it could be ob- tained in liquid form, and began operations in 1857 at Bothwell in Kent County. Better oil was found later at Enniskillen and his first wells produced 100 bar- rels a day, sometimes. This started an oil boom in the area and the name of the community was changed to Pe- trolia, as it is today. L. B. Vaughan made a-valuable dis- covery there on Nov.. 6, 1860, when he struck oil at 85 feet. By 1895 oil production had reached 800,000 barrels a year, and Imperial Oil had built a refin- ery, followed by Canadian Oil Companies, whici also installed a pipeline to Froomfield on the St. Clair River where the oil could flow directly in to ships.

Fair- -goers paid out an aver- age of around $466,000 a day for food and drink during the 185-day exhibition. "T think the majority of res- taurants have made _ good money," says Maurice Novek, 44-year-old Montreal restaura- teur who was head of Expo's restaurant division. A collection of menus reads like a gourmet's fantasy-- anything from Algeria's shish kebab to. Venezuela's paella. But nothing went over bigger than the seafood served at the Atlantic provinces , pavilion where patrons stood in line for hours to get a meal, "The whole idea was to give as wide a variety of food ex- perience as possible in as wide a variety of price ranges as possible,"" says Mr. Novek, "By and large we were able to achieve this. "You didn't see a prolifera- tion of hot dog and hamburger stands, even though they were the most popular items and did the greatest volume of business in snack bars." There were 37 pavilions with food or beverage facili- ties or both, 49 restaurants in the same category, 76 snack bars, 45- food shops and 450 vending machines HIT NIGHT CLUBS What did all this--plus the La Ronde fun fair--do to the Montreal restaurant and nightclub business? Both sectors were hard hit early in the season. Restaur- ant business improved while nightclubs continued to suffer, one big operator reporting the slash as at least 25 per cent Andy Cobetto, co-proprietor of Casa Loma on St, Cathe- rine East, said: "Expo knocked the stuffings out of every club in town, Lots of places folded during the sum- mer. I geared myself for Expo by planning an interna- tional revue last year. If I hadn't done that I would have died." One authority on Montreal's night life said club owners were incensed over the competition from "high-pow- ered talent on a_ subsidized basis' brought in by Expo, Appearances of such artists as Maurice Chevalier, Jack Benny and Marlene Dietrich under the wing of the World Festival did nightclubs no good at all. As an added boost to Expo concessionaires, the Quebec liquor law was amended to permit the fair to set opening and closing hours for liquor- serving establishments, This too irked nightclubs. Eating places on the Mont- real approaches to Expo did well, as did short-order places, but downtown restaure ants didn't pick up until fair- soers began fleeing the queues. MET DEMAND Mr. Novek says Expo planned for a 21,000 seating capacity but had only 18,000 on opening day. "By early June we had raised it to 29,000 seats and were able to supply 350,000 meals and snacks @ day, sufficient for demand." Doing business in excess of $2.000,000 were the Canadian pavilion, with 1,346 seats, the Czech pavilion, 450 seats, the Soviet pavilion, 1,400, the Ger- man pavilion, 700, and the Ba- varian beer garden, 1,500. "One of the big things was that despite the volume no major outbreak of food con- tamination occurred. I think this is unique in a fair of this kind." But there were problems in- volving staff and price. Of the 8.500 persons employed |in food services, only ene-third started out with proper quali- fications There was early confusion and anger about. 15-per-cent service charges being added to the bill without being noted on the menus but this was generally remedied in a week or so As. for prices, Mr, Novek says: "T have to accept that a commissioner-general of a particular nation knew full well what he was doing in as- Sessing in advance what a price level was going to do to the image of his country. "There was nothing in our regulations that said they couldn't charge $15 for a meal if all else was commensurate with that price. Our prime concern was a good mix based on estimated earnings of visitors. We did not have a superabundance of $15-a-meal restaurants and no low-price places. I feel we had a very good mix," TODAY IN HISTORY By THE CANADIAN PRESS Noy, 6, 1967... United States President Roosevelt pledged $1,- 000,000,000 worth of lend- lease aid to Russia 26 years ago today--in 1941--in the first of a vast flood of sup- plies sent to aid Russia in her 'defence against Nazi Germany.

First World War Fifty years ago today--in 1917--Canadian troops cap- tured Passchendaele after @ severe battle in which both sides suffered heavy casual- ties; Mosselmarkt and Goudburg were also occu- pied; and Gen.

Second World War Twenty-five years ago to- day--in 1942--British 8th Army forces pushed beyond El Daba, 30 miles west of EI Alamein; in London the admiralty announced six more Axis vessels had been sunk in the Mediterranean; RAF bombers attacked Genoa and the British cam- paign in Madagascar offi- cially ended 'when Vichy representatives accepted British terms, POINTED PARAGRAPHS Many young people now are- n't interested in climbing the ladder to success. They want to ride up on a fast elevator. The news story of a man who was apprehended for reading while driving 70 mph brings up this question: How did a fool like that ever learn to read? The cause of a lot of car wrecks is the combination of too much horsepower and too little-horse sense, ay A doctor says the maximum pain to a human being is caus- ed by an extensive burn by hot grease. This. probably ex- plains why the ancients some- times boiled their enemies in oil. (It is understood that a person who survived being boil- ed in oil never forgot the ex- perience.) A doctor says a person caf kill himself quicker by over- eating than by overworking. Perhaps so, but he'll have a better time doing it.
