EARLY ALBERTA VOTERS These two nuns were among the first voters to arrive at the polls in Edmonton for the provincial general election. There were 713,630 persons eligible to vote. --(CP Wirephoto) TORONTO (CP) -- Advertis- ers and ad agency executives were told Monday that most Ca- nadians in a sample study said the daily newspaper is best among the mass - communica- tions media in providing infor- mation in depth, both in news and advertising. Reports on two studies on the habits, attitudes and motives of Canadians in using newspapers, radio, TV and magazines were announced by the Canadian Daily Newspaper Publishers As- sociation, which sponsored two detailed surveys last year. One was made by Canadian Facts Limited, the other by the Institute for Motivational Re- search Incorporated of Croton- on-Hudson, N.Y., both in con- sultation with the Canadian Ad- vertising Research Foundation. Newspaper Seen Best On Depth Information middle-sized border city, a large industrial city and a rural com- munity--not identified by name. Questioned on four major news stories of 1962, most peo- ple 'told IMR questioners that neéyspapers provided better cov- erage and understanding of the federal election, the medical care issue in Saskatchewan and the thalidomide tragedy. A ma- jority favored TV for coverage of U.S. astronaut flights. Votes for the "most interest- ing version' of the four stories favored newspapers on medical care and thalidomide, divided equally bet ween newspapers and television on the federal election and preferred TV for the astronauts, Most people--75 per cent--be- lieved newspapers should pro- vide leadership in the commu- THE OSHAWA TIMES, Tuesday, June 18, 1963 BY plied to all building materials, and to manufacturing. equip- Spending May Change After New Budget By DON HANRIGHT CONDITIONS BETTER But officials here say that); crusading for issues, since the original 1963 forecast! nity by thus stimulating interest and ac- tion, and 79 per cent said the newspaper is a major influence in the community. A Canada-wide sampling on newspaper reading habits, car- ried out by Canadian Facts Limited, showed that seven of 10 adults read a daily newspa- per at least once during a week --74 per cent of the men and 67 per cent of the women. Readership increases gener- ally with age, education, in- come, degree of activity in the community and roughly with the size of the community, although peak readership was recorded in centres ranging from 30,000 to 100,000 population.

"It is true," Mr. Lesage said. "That the central government must watch over the general economic balance of the coun- try but it is absolutely neces- sary ... if the scourge of un- employment is to disappear as much as possible that the prov- inces pay a more extensive eco- nomic role.

They helped give how: Canada a $62,000,000 over-all trade surplus in the first three months this year with a small deficit a year earlier. Payments Deficit Still Improving deficit fell to $67,000,000 from $84,000,000 a year ago. Tourists in Canada increased their spending by $4,000,000 to $50,- 000,000, while Canadians abroad cut their outlays by $13,000,000 to $117,000,000. In contrast, net payments of dividends rose to $124,000,000 from $112,000,000. Interest pay- ments went up to $69,000,000 from $67,000,000. By areas, Canada's over-all payments deficit with the United States grew worse, climbing to $350,000,000 in the inst quarter of this year from $343,000,000 a year earlier, Big gains in export trade, ever, meant startling im- provements in balances . both with Britain and other coun- tries. Canada's payments sur- plus with Britain rose to $68,- 000,000 from $6,000,000 a year earlier and with other countries to $39,000,000 from $4,000,000, Meanwhile, capital continued to enter Canada on a large scale, But there was a major change in the form it took. Net inflow for investment in foreign-controlled enterprises in Canada fell sharply to $65,00,- 000 from $190,000,000 in the last quarter of 1962 and $110,000 in the first quarter of 1962. This reflects the absence of last year's big take-overs of Cana- dian companies. NET EARNINGS By THE CANADIAN PRESS 31: 1963, $843,335; 1962, $724,506.

BASED ON FOUR PLACES The motivation study was La Marsh Calls Talk On OTTAWA (CP)--Health Min- ister Judy La Marsh announced Monday she is calling an early conference of Canadian health officials and other interested parties on the hazards of cigar- ette smoking. She did not name a date in her announcement to the House of Commons. Miss La Marsh, who person- ally gave up smoking during the weekend, said she had been impressed by evidence linking cigarette smoking with lung cancer and certain types of bronchitis and heart disease. A special effort must be made to persuade young people not to take up the smoking habit, she told the House, Miss La Marsh said her de- partment will be working in close co-operation with provin- cial and municipal health de- partments in combatting cigar- ette smoking. She was imviting officials of the other levels of government, along with representatives. of voluntary agencies and of the tobacco industry, to an early conference. Miss La Marsh expressed hope that proposals will be ad- vanced at the conference for a positive and effective program.

Smoking questioned Miss La Marsh about lung cancer and their habit, She told Mr. Herridge--who asked for assurance that pipe- smokers are in no danger--that he may continue to "'live in the sin to which he has become ac- customed." To Mr. Douglas, who inquired whether she planned to take up the pipe, she replied that so far as her will would allow her she intends to-do away with use of tobacco entirely. Later, she told reporters in an interview that it hasn't been as tough as she had expected since having her last cigarette about 7 p.m. Saturday. But her Commons colleagues weren't giving her much sym- pathy. They were sending her packages of cigarettes and en- velopes with cigarettes inside, and making comments about the possibility her willpower was giving out.
