The Osharon Times Published by Canadian Newspapers Limited, 68 King St. E., Oshawa, Ont. . Poge 4 Saturday, Mey 2, 1989 Trees Not Obstacles But Needed For Life In an era when the bulldozer is the symbol of progress and a level field clean of trees is for many people ideal landscape, it is timely for an ng generation to be reminded of the value of trees in our mundane shheme of things. ' Far from sweeping them away, our existing trees need to be not merely @nserved but supplemented by new plantings, This is emphasized in a recent article by Dr. Chauncey D. Leake, president- elect of the American Association for e Advancement of Science. In part, , Leake writes: "For millions of years the earth has been in a wholesome balance bétwéen oxygen and carbon dioxide. The plants use up the carbon dioxide tha' comes into the air from burning of from the breathing of animals, -and produce su- gar and oxygen, so that animals can live. "This is a very delicate balance. It is involved in maintaining the stability of weather, It is impriant in keeping just balance for heat capture : ¥sE8 caps on the poles and the water the air, 1f this exquisite bal- sturbed, things can go bad. sturbing this balance in a startling way. We are ng tons of carbon dioxide, along with a lot of other polsonous material into the air from engines that fun our 'sutomobiles, trucks and airplanes. Meanwhile we are also cutting down our trees and making deserts in our cities. We are in a fair way to get badly out of balance before we know it. "For every automobile we produce we should have at least a dozen trees planted to take care of the carbon dis oxide that we produce and put back the oxygen we need, For every truck we need probably a hundred or more trees to keep the blanc¢e." git ¥ Better Than Paintings It's a relief to learn that the prov- nce will set up a scholarship fund as 4 gift to the Queen and not burden Her Majesty with another painting to gather gobwebs in some musty corridor. The dity of Toronto has decided on a paint- ing and already there's a squabble over the choice of artist Even without a Royal Visit, the scho- larship announcement would likely have been forthcoming this year, for two 'reasons. First, there's the erying need for this form of assistance to de- serving students, and, secondly, we're héading towards an election Nevertheless it is highly appropriate that the $500,000 scholarship fund ean Be named in honor of the Queen. The gesture 18 in line with the thinking of Her Majesty and, in addition, Prince Philip is continually demonstrating his desire to have educational facilities and opportunities broadened. Welcome is the news that the Queen Blizabeth scholarship fund will be des voted to pursuits off the track from the normal bursary applications. This should help us stay abreast of new thinking and fresh techniques, Presidents 6f On- tario universities are to chart the rout- ing of the fund and will have a good deal of latitude. That would seem to mean that the Government will keep an eye on the selections, in order that desirable fields of research and study are aided. That's good Northern Route Debated A new road is being hewn along the fugged shores of Lake Superior north and west of Sault Ste, Marie, but it is fiot pleasing inhabitants of & lafge part of Northern Onterie. The Sudbury Star, for example, observes sourly that "fof three yea work crews have been ehop- ping away at the virgin rock to realize the Boo's ambition for a scenie tourist rotite along the shoreline . , , It is futile now to look back and review the argu- ments that were presented in favor of a fore direct route to the Lakehead by way of Chapleau from Highway 17." "Whe will argue that the Trane<Cans ada Highway 17 through Chapleau would have been cheaper to build and of greater service to nofth-bBound traf- fie off Highways 89 and 17, or it eould have been Completed ifn much shorter time?" the Star asks, then contifues! + "Fhe two most important highways which will be of greatest benefit to On- tario people rather than U.B. tourists are still the Sudbury-Timmins Highway and the Sudbury=-Chapleau route to the Lakehead. For traffic to have to drive 10 Sault Ste. Marie before going north is éompurable to driving to North Bay to reach the Gold Belt, Well, not quite comparable, The distaiice to North Bay is 80 mueh shorter "If the Ontario Government puts as myeh concentration of effort into these two highways as if has put in the Lake Superior tourist route we should not have to wait too long to see results of years-long requests for these highway {inke, We are interested, of eourse, in a road that gives an excellent view of Lake Superior en one side, but we are more interested in highwaye that open up the North and Mid:Nefth for the development of the area's natural re- sources Big Paper, Small Profit The New York Times is perhaps the greatest, certainly the greatest in news ecoverafle and humber of daily pages, of all the world's newspapers, the Ottawa Journal points out, By any standard the Times is an extraordinary nhewe- paper, dotting the earth with its owh dorrespondents, maintaining news bur= eaus in practically all the world's cap- jtals and putting out Sunday editions recently called "the greatest university in the United States." Then the Journal comments: Such a paper, most people would say, must be making money; a great deal of money, especially with all its advertis- ing But the fact, is as the paper's 1958 statement just issued shows, that the New York Times does not make a great deal of money, bu that on the contrary its newspaper operation last year yield- ed it & nel profit of but $166,052 The Times, of course, had other in come, such as that from its Spruce Falle Power and Paper Company near Kapus- kasing, Ont, from but $166,062 wae all hye Bshowa Times T.

For The Oshawa Times LONDON -- The influx of Unit ed States investment capital into British industries is causing a great feal of conten in financial circles here, although that eon cern is not shared by the govern: ment. The discussion now going on about the influx of this Amer- jean capital is reminiscent of those which took place in Canada in the last two general election campaigns. There are those who see dangers in United States com- panies Securing a stranglehold on some of the largest and most profitable of British manufaetur- ing concerns For the last few moths, United States companies have invested some 50,000,000 pounds in bying important British eompanies. This is direct Investment by purchas- ing the controlling interest, Many millions have been invested in the shares of British companies with- out sectiring eontrel of them. it is estimated that there are fio sore 700 enterprises with their head offices ih the United States operating in Britain, They employ about 400,000 Bfitish work: ers. So there are advantages. The biggest disadvantage 18 the large and growing outflow of dollars every year in dividends. , NOT ALARMED This question has eéome so mich into public discussion that it was raised in the House of Com. fons by several Socialist Meme bers. Mr. HeatheoAt Amery, Chaneellor of the Bxéhequer, however, ii his replies, made it known that these is ho cause fof alarm of action over American {Avestment in shares of British industries, It was very mueh in the interests of the United King- dom that there should je ua. pret a flow of capital as possi ways. The Famotint of Bettiah capital investéd in other Eouh- trie, he added, was very fhuch in excess of foreign eapital in vested In Britain. Britain's new nel investment if the United States and Canada together was just a8 great as Nofth Ameriean investineyt in Britain, He assured the House that the goverhninent was continuously reviewing this matter to protect Britain's inter ests, . EARLY ELECTION OFF Prospects of an early election definitely faded out of the pie: ture when the government intro duced its finance bill into the House of Commons, The bill is a long and eomplicated one, with 28 sections and elght schedules. It will involve long diseussion, and the best guess I have heard in the lobbies of the House of Com: mons i& that it will not be finally passed until some time in July. In fact, the government is going ahead with its legislative program as though an election were fo: where in sight. A dramatic touch to the com: ing election wae given, however, when Sir Winston Churehill, ie his 05th year, announced in a speech to his constituents at Woodford, Essex, that he would again be in the field ag a candi: date. "1 shall do my. utmost to serve you as long as my breath holds out", said Sir Winston, in closing a typical Churchillian ad: dress. Aftermath of Prime Minister Macmillan's recent visit to Mos cow is seen in the announcement that Sir David Eccles, president of the Board of Trade, will lead a trade mission of eight officials and business men to Russia next month. Purpose of this mission, said Sir David in the House of Commons, was to prepare the way for a possibly spectacular in. crease in trade with the Soviet Union, Later he said, however: "This is not a mission to get orders. It is to establish the right framework within which business men can act afterwards." Both ministers and business men are satisfied that there is plenty of potential trade with Rus- sia waiting to be exploited. It is made clear, however, that there will be no long-term eredits avail- able to Russia, nor will the mis- sion even discuss changing the list of banned strategic goods. Again a tailpiece to this item -- the Tube Investment Group an- nounces that it has negotiated a 2,000,000 pound contract with the Russian government to a ttorien ot Brinn at ingham and v Chesterfield a conflict between British In a television question and an: swer broadeast, Hugh Gaitskell, Socialist leader, made two state: ments which may not go down very well with radical elements in his party, and which will be remembered when election time comes around. First was that he does not ap: prove of trying te impose the closed shop in industry by strikes or Any other form of vietimiza. tioh. Second was that in the event of the govern: ment and trade unions on econ omie poliey, "in the last resort the elected Soverymest ust ob- viously stand by what it believes These words were constried by eommentators as a warning to the extreétne trade unionists with ref: erence to forcing the closed shop does fot approve of some recent actions of unions with reference to foreing the cloned shop on in: dustries.
