© @ THE OSHAWA TIMES, Bhursdey, Februsry 21, 1963 GOOD EVENING By JACK GEARIN [Patent Abolition Proposal Rapped NDP NOMINATION FEBRUARY 25 Clifford Pilkey, president of the New Democratic Party Association of Ontario Riding today announced an impor- tant upcoming NDP event: The Party will hold its nomination meeting for the Federal election candidate Monday, February 25, im the R. S. McLaughlin Collegiate and Vocational Institute, Miss Aileen Hall, the Edinburgh University grad and OCVI teacher, is the overwhelming favorite to again get the nomination, especially im view of her strong showing last June when she placed third in the riding race (which was nip-and-tuck for second place) but ran up the largest vote total ever accorded a OCF or NDP candidate in this riding. As an added attraction for this meeting, Andrew Brewin, QC, of Toronto, will be the guest speaker. He is the Federal member. from Toronto-Greenwood riding and is regarded as one of the finest speakers in the Commons today. JOHN LAY BEATS HUSTINGS TRAIL AGAIN John L. Lay, a 5i-year-old Ajax insurance agent, has a strong link with Liberalism, especially the Mackenzie King variety. He had dinner with his family as a child on the private railway car of the late W. L. Mackenzie King at Barrie, Ont., where the Lays resided. Mr. King -- affectionate- ly known to Mr. Lay today as "Uncle Billy" was Prime Minister of Canada at the time. Mr. Lay's mother, the former Jennie L. King, was the PM's sister. That's not all -- Mr. Lay also knows how it feels to sleep in Laurier House where he visited his famous uncle several times after the latter had completed his unpre- cedented service record as Prime Minister (1921 to 1926- 1926 to 1930 - 1935 to 1948.) Mr. Lay is reluctant to talk much about Mr. King, but he did reveal this much: " 'Uncle Billy' was quick to anger, but his anger was controlled and I have never seen him pop off unneces- sarily. His words were carefully chosen. He was outwardly calm, if inwardly perturbed. He also believed in absolute solidarity within his ranks, especially at Cabinet level. That is why he never appointed the late 'Billy' Moore to a cabinet post. 'Billy' didn't like to be shackled in amy way, especially in freedom of speech." John Lay is extra busy these days at a familiar (to him) and back-breaking chore. He's beating a path around-the hustings in quest of a political goal that has eluded him three times since 1951 -- election to the House of Commons as Liberal member for Ontario riding. The first big test in his current campaign will come in Whitby Thursday, February 28, when district Liberals will select a standard-bearer for the April 8 election. John Lay, like his famous uncle, is not easily discouraged, but he knows he will be in for a fight that night. His oppo- nent (and likely his only one) will be the same man who ousted him for the nomination honor last year by the nar- rowest of margins, @ reverse that Mr. Lay did not take too well. That man is Norman Cafik, a dynamic 31-year-old execu- tive type from Pickering Township who certainly has no peer as a forceful political orator in Ontario riding today, not excluding Health Minister Matthew B, Dymond. Cafik gave a most impressive performance last June in his politi- cal debut while pumping some badly-needed life blood into the sagging form of the riding Party. How will accredited Party delegates -- two from each of 'the riding's 261 polls -- vote at Whitby February 28? Will they stick with young Mr. Cafik who did surprisingly well last June and gives promise of still better things to come, or will they switch to Mr. Lay who gave "Mike" Starr two close runs, once in 1952 (when Mr. Starr won 12,275 to 9,091) and once in 1953 (when Mr. Starr won 12,482 to 11,- 285) ? Mr. Lay was unhappy with the "lack of planning" for the 1962 convention when the voting was thrown wide open, although he admits that he was as much responsible for the situation as anyone else. ,"The main point is this," he said this week. "Every effort is being made to conduct the February 28 nomination vote along the lines set out in the riding association's rules and regulations; regardless of the final outcome of that vote, I will do all in my power to promote the Party's cause in the current election campaign." Mr. Lay pointed out this week that he got 30 percent of the popular vote in the 1952 race, which was a by-election (and Mr. Starr's first Federal victory) and 38 percent in the 1953 campaign. He also confirmed reports that the late Bill Heffering, then president of the Liberal riding association and chief district organizer, strongly opposed his nomination in 1952 and 1953, ~ "I was nominated in 1952 while Mr. Heffering was in Florida," said Mr. Lay. "When Mr. Heffering returned he let me know that -+he was not in favor of my candidacy. It JOHN LAY OTTAWA (CP)--Abolition of drug patents would do hi to lower prices and could bring Canadian drug' research "to a grinding halt," Stanley Conder, general manager. of the Cana- a grinding halt." As action in aboli tection, Mr. "This dog-in- the - manger at of drug research in Canada to for Canadian unilateral patent pro- Conder said: dian Pharmaceutical Manufac- turers Association, says. He was commenting in a statement Wednesday night on the restrictive trade prac- tices commission's recommen- dations for an end to patents, greater use of generic rather than brand names for drugs, and changes in druggists' sell- ing methods. "Abolition of patents alone titude would certainly be de- cried in scientific circles around the world, and could do nothing but help to lower Can- ada's prestige abroad. Referring to the commission's recommendation for greater use' of generic drug names, Mr. Conder said this would result in more imports and less drug manufacturing in Canada-- "aside from serious medical Drug Firms Oppose will not reduce drug prices, but it could have a detrimental ef- fect on the quality of medica- tion supplied,"" Mr, Conder said. "Competition and not patents is the determining factor in re- spect to prices." He noted that under the pres- ent system, any company can demand a manufacturing li- cence from the owner of a drug patent. But the company or person demanding the licence must show that he has the abil- ity and the facilities to manu- facture the product. "If patents were discarded, this safety factor would no longer apply and virtually any- one could attempt to imitate drugs for sale without being questioned as to his compe- tence." Patents had allowed wholly- owned Canadian firms, and Ca- nadian subsidiaries in foreign companies, to carry out re- search in this country. Cana- dian-based research was not great in comparison with that in the United States, but it was growing steadily. "A patent is the major incen- tive to research, and without this measure of reward for our inventors it will bring the future MONTREAL (CP) -- Three|F tion of drug patent protection. John B..

Miss Mann says fur lashes are thicker, more lustrous. The Regional Appeal | Seen In Campaign OTTAWA (CP)--The April 8 election campaign may be more regionalized than in 1962, party Strategists say. In other words, things may be said in one part of Canada 'that arms issue created stresses in both the Liberal and Ccmserva> tive parties. Regional pockets strongly for or against. nuclear arms have been defined. There are. other controversial won't be repeated elsewhere: In 1962 all four parties tended to lay down a firm platform na- tionally in the early stages of the campaign for last June's election. The changed situation arises in part from the results of 1962 when the Progressive Ccrser- vatives survived as a minority support and Liberal gains were Bids government on rural mainly in the cities. Both Liberals and Conserva- tives are expected to aim at retaining their support in areas of strength and making the necessary gains _ elsewhere. Thus, it was probably no acci- dent that Prime Minister Dief- enbaker's Toronto speech Tues- day laid heavy emphasis on Conservative promises for ur- ban development and redevelop- ment assistance. Liberal party sources agreo that the prospect of a regional- ized or "fragmented" ca ign is one reason for attempting to ensure more flexibility this time in itmeraries and other plans. PROBLEMS SIMILAR The Social Credit and New Democratic parties have simi- lar problems. Social Credit won 30 seats in 1962 but 26 were in Quebec and most were rural. Of the NDP's 1 9seats, 10 were won in British Columbia and six in Ontario--most of an urban-in- lashes are trimmed to suit the face and the occasion and come off easily.

Mr. Frosst said "It was only because we were sure of patent protection that we could spend years of our time, employ some 60 of Canada's most highly- trained researchers and devote th * pi ra after a brief spell of freed in Toronto. His parole was revoked ear- lier this month for persistent breach of parole conditions. He refused to heed parole officers' warnings not to associate with a 16-year-old Toronto gin. He was released from Kings- ton in October after serving 10 years of a life sentence follow- ing a series of spectacular bank robberies in 1951. He twice broke out of the Don jail while awaiting trial and two of his accomplices, Leon- ard Jackson and Steve Suchan, were hanged for the murder of Sgt. Edmund Tong, shot to death in Toronto, RCMP officers escorted Boyd from Don jail to Kingston Tues- day after a short appearance in a magistrate's office at Toronto where the recommittal papers were signed for his return to the maximum security prison. A penitentiary official said that while Boyd's case could possibly come before the parole other five years. board for consideration in two years, it was unlikely he would be considered for at least an- upon t dollars to seeking new and more effective cures." Professor Says Proposal 'Silly' TORONTO (CP)--A professor of pharmacy administration at the University of Toronto bas described as '"'silly" a recom- mendation that brand and gen- eric names be given equal prominence on the labels and promotional material concern- ing drugs. The recommendation was in- cluded in a report of the re- strictive trade practices com- mission on drug price control, released Wednesday in Ottawa. Professor H. J. Fuller com- mented that "everything we use" -is identified by brand name. "Why outlaw brand names on drugs?"" he asked. Further- more, the government couldn't define a generic name since there could be as many as six generic names for the same product.

Cuba has set up numerous schools of sabotage and guer- rilla warfare throughout Latin Mining Faced With Shortage Of Personnel TORONTO (CP)--Shortage of personnel is one of the most serious problems facing mining today, E. B. Gillanders, presi- dent of the Canadian Metal Mining Association, said at to- day's annual meeting. "There now are 107 students in mining and 115 in geology at our universities," Dr. Gill- anders stated. '"'This compares with 192 and 217 five years ago when the situation was already acute." Questioning whether the role of the mining industry is under- stood and appreciated by Cana- dians at large, Dr. Gillanders commented: "We are all aware of some popular misconceptions about the promotional aspects of the mining industry which do us ao good. We should hammer away at these misconceptions and in- form the general public of the solid achievements of the indus- try and the vital role it plays 'in the well-being of all Cana- dians, Cuban Exile Leader Urges US.

On the same day a US. spokesman indicated the West would accept fewer than eight annual on-site inspections as part of any "nuclear test-ban treaty, Russia placed before the 17-nation disarmament confer- ence in Geneva the draft of a non-aggression treaty between the North Atlantic Treaty Or- ganization and the Warsaw pact powers. The: proffered non-aggression agreement would have the NATO and Warsaw pact coun- tries "solemnly plelge to re- frain from aggression, threat or use of force by any means in- compatible with the aims and principles of the United Nations charter, both against each other and in their international rela- tions in general."

Officially, the West accepts the Communist portrayal of the Warsaw pact as the eastern counterpart of NATO. In 1956, one year after the Warsaw. grouping was formed, Nikolai Bulganin, then Soviet president, wrote to President Eisenhower suggesting a non- aggression pact between the Warsaw pact countries and NATO, Every year since then the suggestion has been re- peated, in letters, diplomatic notes or speeches by Soviet leaders. In May, 1958, at a Warsaw pact conference in Moscow, a proposed NATO-Warsaw _ pact treaty was drafted. It never was) acted on, but its terms were not!
