8 6 THE DAILY TIMES-GAZETTE, Friday, April 10, 1953 Editorials The Bally Times-Gazette (Oshaws, Whitby), ™ 87 Simcoe Sireei. South, vg Ontario Tito Claims Mutual Aid Agreement With Britain Ag Marshall Tito, President of Yugo- slavia, recently visited Great Britain, very little in the way of an official announce- ment was made from London regarding the matters 'which he discussed with Prime Minister Churchill. But Tito was not so secretive when he arrived back in his own capital. Interviewed on his arrival there; he reported that Prime Minister Churchill has promised to defend Yugoslavia if that coun- try should be attacked. In turn, Tito gave his pledge that in the event of aggression elsewhere, Yugoslavia would take sides against the aggressor. If that is a correct interpretation of the results of the talks between Tito and Churchill, then it makes a very. important step on the part of both countries. It does seem strange that no similar announcement was made by Churchill on behalf of the British government, because this represents a major foreign policy decision. It is im- portant not only to Britain and Yugoslavia, but also to Canada and the rest of the free world. In effect, it means that Yugoslavia has assumed a status equal to that of a partner in the North Atlantic Treaty Or- ganization, although not a signatory to that treaty. It means that Britain has spread the protection of its defence forces a long way from the western zones of Europe, right to the southern boundaries of Russia. And it places Yugoslavia definitely in the camp of those who are prepared to resist any aggressive moves on the part of Russia, In view of this, one cannot help wonder- ing why Churchill remained silent on this new policy, while Tito hastened to tell his people all about it. One feels justified in wondering if the statements credited to Tito are actually in accordance with the facts, or if there has been some reading into them of policies which are not yet firmly crystallized, It would certainly be reassuring to have a statement from London giving the British side of the understanding. City Engineer Dempsey Resigns It is a matter for regret that Wesley T. Dempsey, who has been Oshawa's city en- gineer since 1946, has resigned from that position to set up practice as a eonsulting engineer in the city, and that his resignation has been accepted by the eity council. Al- though no mention of any other reason for his resignation was made to the council, # has been known for some time that Mr. Dempsey was not happy in the ecivie admin- istration, and found it difficult to carry on effectively under eouncil restraint. Perhaps that may have something to do with his de- eision. i City Engineer Dempsey has been a oap- able and efficient municipal servant during the past seven years. It is no secret that he has saved the oity many thousands of dollars because of his technical knowledge and skill. This was particularly true in con- nection with the sewage disposal system, nearing 'completion under his guidance. After a long battle with provincial health authorities, his plan for the sewage disposal plant was finally approved, and the city saved, #t is reported, something like a quarter of a million dollars on that deal alone. One comforting thing is that Mr. Dempsey is not leaving the city, and will be available to guide the sewage disposal system through to a conclusion, as well as being at hand to give advice and assistance when required for other projects, both public and private. Oshawa could ill afford to lose a citizen of his calibre and standing in his profession. This Suggestion is Meritorious There is a great deal of merit in the sug- gestion which was made at the city council meeting this week that an effort be made #0 relocate the plant of Curran-Briggs, ready-mix cement firm, now situated om Simcoe Street South. On account of the na- ture of this establishment, its trucks have carried great masses of mud out on to the Simcoe Street pavement, leaving it in an un- sightly eondition for a large part of the year and particularly after a heavy rain, In addi- tion, the smoke and cement fumes and dust rising from the plant have caused a consid. erable nuisance to residents of the neighbor hood. It is true, of course, that the plant is lo- cated on land which was reserved for indus- trial purposes, but we doubt if the land-use plan eontemplated the establishment of an Editorial Notes Having succeeded in preventing the use of coloring material in margarine, we won- der if the dairy producers will be willing to dispense with its use in the manufacture of butter. One member of the Ontario Legislature has charged another with talking too much. But it should be remembered that most of them get there because of their ability to talk. Russia's peace moves seem so much too good to be true that many people can scarce- ly believe them to be true.

Homes in the vicinity have already suffered greatly from the gravel and eement dust and the smoke fumes, and the result has been to depreciate property values on Simeoe Street South, If anything is to be done by the city eoun- cil to relocate the Curran and Briggs plant in a more suitable area, removed from residen- tial sections, it should be done at once, as the company is engaged in building a new plant at the same location, to perpetuate the undesirable eonditions which have prevailed. Strong persuasion should be brought to bear on the company in the hope of having this plant project halted and a new location found for the company. Other Editors' Views MR.

A Bit Of Verse : FROM AN ISLAND IN PUGET SOUND The strait of Juan de Fuca is t' e rein That pulls upon the dcean flowing by, To draw the boats like herring in a seine Or camels "rough a shining needles eye; Then where the sound unfolds its dazzling arm, Their hulls sway through like waltzes in a glide, And watching from my smoke-blue island farm, I count the beads of tugboats as they slide Along the looping silver channel thread, Until the throbbing traffic of the sea Has faded in the silent haze ahead, And left these coves to petrels and to me.

Prairies align themselves in a very unusual combination and think Qu alike. Youngsters and older people agree exactly -- another unusual circumstance.

His blast wasn't nearly as strong as that at Mr. Wren. Perhaps sig- nificantly, one of his major orit- icisms of Wren was on this same point. He accused the Kenora member of being absent from the House. PREMIER WRONG He was off the beam here, and Mr. Oliver was quick to point it out. The Liberal leader said im- mediately there wasn't a harder- working private member in the House than the Kenora member. Independent observers will bear him. Mr. Wren may be wrong on occasion, but there is no doubt about hig seriousness concerning his Job. He devotes every bit of his time and energy to it. He has been out of the House-- though not too frequently--but when he has, he's usually been in the Libegal offices preparing a speech or doing research. Mr. Frost can be wrong too!
