2 THE OSHAWA TIMES, Fridey, April 19, 1963 SCHEME MAY INCLUDE ATOM POWER PLANT 5-Year Create TORONTO (CP)--A five-year economic plan to create 300,000 new jobs by 1967 by expanding industry was outlined in the On- tario legislature Thursday. Economics Minister Macaulay said the plan may include con- struction of a $500,000,000 nu- clear power plant capable of generating 1,800,000 kilowatts. He said the plan will concen- trate on the manufacturing in- dustry as "the central core of the Ontario economy" and will .|be achieved by creating a "fa- vorable environment for expan- sion." He listed nine policies to this end, including a reduction in imports, ncreased exports and CUBAN EXILE LEADER QUITS Dr. Jose Miro Cardona (center), surounded by exiles, pauses to answer a newsman's question as he leaves Cuban Revolutionary headquarters Thursday after. resigning as president. of the exile organi- zation. --(AP.

The search for new mines would have to start within three or four years, he said. This would be necessary because of the time it takes to find and place a mine in production. "There's not too long to wait,"" Mr. Gilchrist said. One proposal to keep present producers from closing might be for importing countries to buy uranium on a long-term basis between now and 1970. nearby Wallops Island, Va., cane verthin 20 miles of hitting Explorer 17, in orbit 200 miles above tie earth, the U.S. space agency reported. and Space Administration an- nounced this while that Explorer launched April 2, in its first 24 hours im orbit knocked holes in a pop- ular theory as to the composi- tion of the upper atmosphere.

Construction could start next year. "I am confident that this is going to be an economic prop- osition,"" Mr. Macaulay said. Money would be sought from federal, provincial and private sources. He warned that if a "sub- stantial program of nuclear power station construction" is not started by 1980, Ontario would be importing between $200,000,000 and $300,000,000 worth of American coal an- nually. SEEKS MORE EXPORTS Mr. Macaulay said three "major areas of attack" in the five-year program would aim at encouraging replacement of im- ported goods with Ontario-made| products, increasing purchases of Canadian products and ex- panding exports. The government will set goals to bring 160 new firms into On- tario to manufacture formerly imported goods and create 75 new "manufacturing arrange-| ments" whereby foreign manu-| facturers licence production in Ontario of goods previously im- ported. "We must create 300,000 new jobs by 1967," Mr, Macaulay said.. 'This is the measure of the job ahead." His policies to achieve his target included: Support for research through tax incentives, increased grants and participation in the Ontario Research Community and ex- pansion of the recently-created which can guarantee loans to industries; Transportation studies, in- cluding the question of sub- sidizing electrical, freight and other public service rates; ~~ Research studies into national and international economics such as the United States Trade Expansion Act and the Euro- pean Common Market; Ontario Economic Council through interprovincial, federal- provincial and provincial-mu- icipal co-operation and provin- cal achievement awards to firms showing outstanding suc- cess in exports and expansion; "acquaint them with the prob- lems of decentralization and ex- pansion of manufacturer infor- mation services, FORMS SALES TEAMS Mr. Macaulay said export ex- pansion would be pursued by sending 10 sales missions rep- resenting more than 100 manu. facturers overseas, establishing co-operative agencies and sales agents in foreign markets and pressing the federal gover- ment for a better system of ex- port credits. He said the Ontario Trade Crusade, initiated last year, "brought to Ontario business in value of approximately $275,- 000,000 in 1962," He said a study by an inde- pendent company said co- sumers had spent $115,000,000 more on Ontario-made goods last year. Three manufacturing opportunity shows resulted in $35,500,000 worth of new busi- ness .and 10 sales missions brought in another $26,491,000 in sales.
