6 THE DAILY TIMES-GAZETTE,' Monday, June 1, 1953 E ditorials The Pally Times-Gazette (Oshawa, Whithy). by Times-G 57 Simeoe Street South, Oshawa, Ontario Citizens are Asked to Join In Tribute to Our Queen Today, The Times-(zazette pays its tri- bute to our beloved Queen Elizabeth in its pre-Coronation special edition. In today's issue of the newspaper, we publish many pages of stories and pictures relative to the Queen and her Coronation, the Royal Family, the symbolism and ceremony at- tached to this great occasion, and some of the history of coronations down through the centuries. We do this in a spirit of loyalty to our sovereign, which we pledge with full heart and devotion to the crown and the young woman who will, tomorrow, dedicate her life to the service of her people. The citizens of Oshawa, whe are equally loyal to the Queen and all that she repre- gents, will have their opportunity to join in the celebrations which have been arranged to mark the day on Tuesday. Within the limitations imposed on it by circumstances, the committee has arranged a fitting series of events in the city. "Actually, they started yesterday with the drumhead service ar- ranged by the Ontario Regiment. They will be continued on Tuesday forenoon with the church service in St. George's Church, and then the outpouring of the city's senti- ments will be provided for in the evening parade, the program at the McLaughlin Bandshell, and the Coronation beacon and fireworks display to follow. We do not believe it is necessary to make any appeal to our citizens to join whole- heartedly in this celebration. They will, we are sure, do this of their own volition, rec- ognizing that in doing so they are honoring their Queen, and reaffirming their allegi- ance to our sovereign, This will be a great day for all British people everywhere in the world. May we hope that the people of Oshawa will enter into the spirit of the occasion, marking first its religious aspect by attending the forenoon church service, and then joining in the joyous aspects of the celebration in the evening when the majority of our people will be free from work. May, June 2, 1953, be a day long to be remembered by the citizens of Oshawa. New Step in Railway Power Units A small item in a despateh from Ottawa stated that it is expected during August of this year the coal-burning gas turbine loco- motive, that for a period of years has been under development at MeGill University, will be ready for testing. Canadians have seen.Jocomotive power de- velop during the past century from wood. burners to coal-burners, then to oil-burners and, finally, to diesel electric power. The last named has been the most revolutionary of all the changes that have taken place, and yet during the past ten years it has glided into the lives of Canadians with quiet effi- ciency. Those who scheme and plan for the future of Canadian railroads look to the coal-burn- ing gas turbine to be perhaps even more re- volutionary than the gas-electric power units. Coal has been getting a licking from ofl and diesel power in recent years, and yet Canada has vast supplies of coal. But the beating that coal has been getting with the replacement of coal by fluid-fired steam producers and diesel power is not confined to Canada. In the Pennsylvania coalfield area, railroads that have burned coal be- cause they haul coal are switching to oil, There are gas-turbin comotives i+ op- eration in several countries and most of them utilize oil, but there are coal-burning gas turbines. The experiment and development of the coal-burning gas turbine has been in pro- gress over a period of years, the railways co-operating with the scientists and engin- eers. They are hopeful that Canadian genius will produce a coal-burning gas turbine that will prove to be the next great step forward in Canadian railroading, providing cheap efficient locomotive power, and at the same time help to restore the coal industry to its former place in the Canadian scheme of affairs, Doukhobor Migration Plan Good Idea Doukhobors of the Sons of Freedom sect in the Slocan Valley of the Kootenays, in British Columbia, which has recently been the scene of incendiarism and destruction of railway lines, have signified their will- ingness to migrate to Uruguay. Stefan Sorokin, their spiritual leader, is reported to have obtained ample land for the migration plan. A committee composed of members of the Sons of Freedom sect and non-Doukhobors is to urge the provincial and federal governments to clear the way for the move on proof from Sorokin that land is available in Central or South America, Providing Sorokin, as reported, lias found a suitable location in Uruguay, we cannot imagine what obstacle would be too great to prevent the transfer of the troublesome Doukhobors at the earliest possible moment. Editorial Notes No sooner do we get rid of foot and mouth disease in the west than along comes an outbreak of hog cholera in Ontario, ® We wonder if Senator McCarthy of the United States thinks he is helping the cause of werld peace and freedom by his bitter attacks on Great Britain. Bank robbers do not seem to be deterred in the slightest degree by the information that money is loaded with germs.

Canadians from one end of the country to the other would be only too pleased to hear that the radical Sons of Freedom had been provided with one-way tickets to Uruguay, or some place even more remote. The "Douks" have been a 'source of trouble in the coast province for nearly 50 years and efforts to appease them have been unavailing. It would even be a profit- able investment if the governments would finance the transfer of the Freedomites and take a chance of being reimbursed from the sale of their lands. To wait until the prop- erties were sold, in order to obtain the necessary finances, might give the Douks time to change their minds. * Other Editors' Views DEFENCE DEPARTMENT'S JC: (Hamilton Spectator) It seems to us that the time has now come for a political truce as far as the whole business o. na- tional defence is concerned.

I'M GOING TO Jume / oe) OTTAWA REPORT Queen's Reign Will See Canada Expand By PATRICK NICHOLSON Special Correspondent for The Times-Gazette OTTAWA--The reign which for- mally opens with the crowning of our Queen tomorrow may reas- onably be expected to last long enough to see Canada overtake Great Britain as the most power- ful nation in the Commonwealth. "All the signs point this way, that the 20th Century shall be the century of Canada and Canadian development," prophesied Sir Wilf- red Laurier. "For the next 100 years, Canada shall be the star towards which all men who love progress and freedom shall come." CANADA'S HALF-CENTURY Our great French - Canadian prime minister said that fifty years ago. Nature, the Canadian people and world events have combined to lay the solid foundations in this first half century; in the ceming 50 years, vision, statesman and Canadian drive could build the superstructure on that foundation to round out Laurier's prophesy. Just as the first Eizabethan Age saw England rise to be a world power, so this second Elizabethan Age could see Canada attain her position among the world's Big Four Nations. Queen Elizabeth ITI is the first monarch to ascend the throne as head of the Commonwealth, which today covers a quarter of the globe and includes one-fifth of the world's population. The Development of the Common- wealth into its present form is Canada's achievement, started by Conservative Prime Minister Sir Robert Borden, and completed by Mackenzie King. That development marks a great step forward from what used to be called the British tit; Empire; other steps certainly will follow, many already foreseen by men of vision. FOLLOWING PRECEDENT The most startling but at the same time the most probably of these possible developments centre round the phrase: "If we don't hang together, we will all hang separately." I refer, of course, to the Can- adian clause or Article 2 of the North Atlantic Treaty, which en- visages some merging of our nat- ional sovereignty into a suprana- tional authority. The Canadian colonies did this 86 years ago and have never looked back; the original 13 American States did it a century before that and thereby laid the foundations of their present strength and pros- perity. Six countries of western Europe are now taking their first hesitant steps towards a supranational part- nership. But in the modern world, a small-scale confederation like in Canada or the United States in not enough, nor is a loose clanship such as the Commonwealth's which not only fails to co-operate in the para- mount field of trade, but cannot speak with one voice even at Pan- munjom. Our Commonwealth has taken a great step forward. It will take yet other and greater steps to keep up with our fast-moving times. And it is probably that Canada "that hinge of purest gold between the Old World and the New" as Field Marshal Montgomery called us will play an important, perhaps most important, role in refashioning it to give the world peace in which to enjoy the health and wealth now available in unprecedented quan- y. Citizens Committee ToFightCommunism VANCOUVER (CP) -- Canada's first '"'aitizens' committee" to com- bat communism and promote the Canadian way of life has been started here. J. Farley Faulkner, 43-year-old Toronto business man who doesn't believe in 'letting George do it" started the committee at a meet- ing here. Faulkner's idea was born at a meeting in Toronto's Massey Hall, 'when he was challenged by Com- munists to "hire a hall" during an address by Dr. Hewlett John- son, dean of Canterbury. In an address to some 300 Ki- wanians and their guests at an or- ganizational meeting here, he said "communism is today backed by a large group of about 15,000 eager beavers who want to do away with everything we believe in. "Helping these 15,000 are some 200,000 fellow travellers," he said. Mr. Faulkner, who runs a dress shop in Toronto, said "too many people shrug off problems and dangers with an attitude of 'let George do it." And deep down they know there isn't a George." He said he intends to tour every major centre in Canada to form committees '"'to shake the people out of their complacency and realize what a threat communism is to the free world." - Murder Case In Hamilton HAMILTON (CP) -- Police an- nounced early today that Harry La Fortune, 27-year-old hotel care- taker, has been charged with the murder of an unidentified woman who was found strangled in his boarding house room. Police said the woman, about 40, was found by the operator of the rooming house, They said she was strangled with a blouse she had been wearing. The operator of the rooming house told police she heard a man and woman arguing late Friday night. She went upstairs and found lying diagonally across the bed. A man was sitting on one side of the bed.

MAC'S MUSINGS As we think of tomorrow's Coronation of the Queen In Westminster Abbey, Our mind goes back to The day two years ago Which we spent in that Noble and hallowed Structure which is in Very truth a shrine Of history and worship For the British people Of the whole Empire. Tomorrow our hearts will Be centred again on Westminster Abbey, where Our Queen will be crowned, And we will think of All it represents in The Empire's history, and What it symbolizes as the Place where our monarchs Are crowned to rule over A free ople who are To be found in every Part of the world. Old: Westminster Abbey Is steeped in tradition And within its walls Are the graves of those Noble British leaders In every field of life Who played their part In establishing that Type of freedom which Is essentially British, And which we all cherish As the greatest heritage . They could pass on to us, Westminster stands today As a symbol of a people Who will be re-dedicating Themselves to the service Of their country and Queen As she dedicates herself To their seryice, and to The service of their God Under whose guidance our British Commonwealth Will again go forward Under Queen Elizabeth Traffic Deaths Slightly Lower TORONTO (CP)--Traffic acci- dents in Ontario during the first quarter in 1953 took 151 lives, six less than in the same period in 1952. The total number of accidents however, is 10 per cent higher than for the first three months last year. Statistics released at Queen's Park show that the number of in- jured rose from 3,953 in the first quarter of 1952 to 4,552 this year. Property damage increased to $4, 933,829 from $3,980,700. Among the traffic fatalities this year were 25 children between the ages of five and 14, an increase of 25 per cent over the January, February and March figures of last year.

QUEEN'S PARK Civil Servants' Parking Problem By DON O'HEARN Special Correspondent for Times-Gazette TORONTO ~This city, always handy at teapot-tempest brewing, is in a tizzy with the province over a parking lot. Your probably have read about it. And by the time it has reached you it undoubtedly seemed as though the government wanted to tear up all the park lands at this seat of parliament. There have been fine, stentorian statements coming from city hall. One could get the impression the very roots of the city itself were. threatened, CORNER ISSUE Such is not the case. Cause of the controversy (which has caused one newspaper to query Premier Frost in London and prompted the acting mayor of the city to threaten to do so) is a cor- ner of the park area at the entrance to the drive to the buildings lead- ing from University avenue, With construction of the new treasury building about to begin, the government has decided the corner will be needed for park- ing space. A large lot, one of the main parking spaces for civil ser- vants, is to be taken up by the new building. Acting premier "George Doucett decided the corner would have to be used for tempor- ary accommodation until' perm- anent space could be found for them. SMALL AFFAIR Workmen started to take up the sod. The city wasn't told. Perhaps it should have been. Nominally, at least, this part of the Queen's Park grounds is under its juris- diction. But certainly the oversight hardly warranted the commotion which followed. For one thing, the area con- cerned is only a small corner. It is to be protected with a fringe of grass and trees. And most of it has been out of commission for the past few years while new build- ing went on alongside. CITY*LEADS The whole hubbub is bred by the curious situation that the province doesn't own a lot of its own home- grounds here. Due to lack of foresight and tim- idity of some of our fathers in the past, proprietorship of a great deal of the property surrounding the leg- islative buildings is vested in the University " of Toronto. Some of this, in turn, is under a lease to the city. BAD SHOW This is an extremely bad situa- tion. It has to a considerable degree EXPAND STAR PLANT WINDSOR, Ont. (CP)--Contracts were awarded during the week-end for a plant addition to the Windsor Star building which will double the size of the present structure and cost almost $1,500,000.

The parking incident may bring this to light and spart some action. If so, it will be the one sensible thing about it.
