She Oshawa Zimes Published by Canadian Newspapers Limited 86 King St. E., Oshawa, Ontario T. L. Wilson, Publisher PRIDAY, AUGUST 16, 1963----PAGE 6 Cathcart's Resignation Cause Of Minor Shuffle The announced decision of Bryan Cathcart, Ontario Minister of Travel and Publicity, to quit politics has touched off a minor cabinet shuffle, but the careful Mr. Robarts hag done nothing to upset the main team he will lead into the election ex- pected within the next six to eight weeks, Mr. Cathcart's resignation has given Premier Robarts the oppor- tunity to shift a younger and ap- parently more energetic man into the travel and publicity portfolio, and at the same time to get Allan Grossman out of his uncomfortable seat on the Ontario Liquor Control Board. Mr. Grossman has been something less than a distinguished liquor board chairman, but he may find a better outlet for his restless energy in the Department of Re- form .Institutions, which could do with some aggressive leadership, The cabinet shuffle, however, is less interesting than the original cause of it, the resignation of Mr. Cathcart. Mr, Cathcart said he had had enough of politics and wanted to make his exit on the crest of a tourist boom. But to be honest about it, the boom can be attributed not so much to the efforts of the Department of Travel and Publicity as to happenings over which On- tario has had little or no control -- the devaluation of the Canadian dollar, for example, and the surge of spending made possible by im- proved business conditions. It has been apparent for some time that Travel and Publicity was one of the Ontario government de- partments which needed thorough reorganization. The department's budget has been more than doubled in the past 10 years, but there has not been an increase in the number of tourists on anything like the same scale, The minister showed a surprising lack of knowledge about the operation of unlicensed resorts in the province. And when a re- organization was started at the top level, it was bungled; four senior officials were given their notice and told that no matter what they would be rehired to do something. There have been suggestions that the Department be made a branch of the Trade and Commerce Depart- ment. There is considerable merit in the idea, Stories In Museums Professor Wilfred Jury of the University of Western Ontario un- veiled an historical plaque at Sault St. Marie the other day, and took the accasion to make some sugges- tions about the organization of museums -- a fruitful topic, since museums seems to be popular muni- cipal projects for Canada's centen- nial celebrations in 1967. He thought museums should not just be filled with curios but should tell a story. Unfortunately we have only a brief news report and not his full speech, so we do not know exactly what he meant by story telling, The Royal Ontario Museum, for example, is full of all sorts of curious, but they are arranged in such fashion that they tell much of the story of mankind. Both the Automotive Museum and Henry House in Osh- awa tell interesting and effective atories, one of the development of the great automotive industry to which Oshawa has contributed so much, the other of the pioneer life in this area. The museums comple- ment each other, because together they effectively illustrate the social and industrial development of the community. There are many small -city museums which, limited in resour- ces thoug they may be, still manage to tell effective stories, The museum in Woodstock's city hall, for example, was planned to show the history and development of Oxford county, and has managed to do so remarkably well. It is, perhaps, the. larger city museums which tend to close their point in dusty accumulations of meaningless curious. An exception is the Western Development Museum in Saskatoon; there a collection of early equipment used in the opening of the Prairies has been assembled, and each year the old machines take part in a parade through the city. This idea might well be adopted in Oshawa; bug- gies and vintage cars could make a city tour, carrying people dressed in correct period costumes. It could be an attractive annual event. Unemployment Figures Unemployment in Canada was down again in mid-July, according to the estimates of the Labor De- partment and Bureau of Statistics. But officials of the department and bureau would be the first to admit that precise statistics are lacking, mainly because a precise definition of unemployment is lacking. Britain and the United States have the same trouble. Britain has quite a seasonal awing in employment but, accord- ing to Ministry of Labor figures, the upturn from April through July has been far better than a normal seasonal trend. On the other hand, by employing a different method of calculation the Organiza- tion for European Co-operation and Development claims -- and unoffi- cial observers seem inclined to agree -- that there has been only The Oshawa Times T.

However, all parties appear to feel that economic resevery is under way and that even though next winter will see heavy unem- ployment, the government should not undertake pump-priming spend- ing at this time. The opinion is that artificial stimulants introduced now would not be effective until 1964, when economic expansion will be under way in any event. In the US. the question is whether official statistics really define the extent and actual nature of unemployment. As in Canada, US. authorities report unemploy- ment only in gross figures. But a survey of jobless workers in 23 cities has concluded that such sta- tistics "are no longer a valid or ac- curate indicator of the health of the economy." The most sicrificant finding of the survey was that of all the unemployed persons inter- viewed, six out of ten might be des- cribed as only technically unem- ployed -- workers who had finished one project and were awaiting another, retired people looking for only part-time work, or those who had chosen to quit jobs for: various personal reasons. Moreover, four out of ten unemployed married per- sons had a husband or wife work- ing, and nearly ten per cent of the total interviewed admitted they could get jobs if they would take leas money. In short, gross ficures on unemployment fail to show how many persons there are who really meed to be helped -- the bread- winners involuntarily out ef work. of Parliament Te 4171] Fryigt it He 3 a ' i i i 4 7 i cRNA ROI 50 p.e Raise for MPs Stirs Storm in Uganda HAMPALA.

Correspondent For The Oshawa Times LONDON -- Another of Lon- don's old schools, the Latymer Foundation School, has suc- cun.bed to the pessures of mod. ern life, This school, for over 300 years one of the landmarks of the Hammersmith distric; in which it was located. and through which thousends of schoolboys have passed, has closed its doors, and they will YOUR HEALTH never be reopened, The build- ings are now hemmed in by chocolate factories, the new traffic fly-over and the busy Hammersmith Road, and with- in a few weeks they will be no more, When the school closed for the annual summer holidays, the last of the books, the desks, the inkwells and the historic honors board were all moved out, On the follwing day, gangs of workmen moved in to begin the work of demolition. There were 161 boys left in Hip-Nail Method Big Improvement By JOSEPH G.

With some people, even a very small amount of light can irritate the skin. Dear Dr, Molner: A friend of mine went on a starvation diet last. year, She is 16 and was not overweight. Now she is so thin and weak from the loss of 35 pounds that she cannot par- ticipate in any activities, She had to miss over a week of school because she couldn't walk upstairs, Her face is swol- len and hardly. recognizable. She has been going to her fam- ily doctor for a few months but he doesn't seem to be "duild- ing her up." We, her friends, are very concerned.--L. D. And people wonder why I op- pose "'crash diets"! Sometimes they come out without great harm--but some. times they don't. In this case, obviously damage has set in, and it may take more than food to correct the condition, I send my sympathy to all concerned, especially the decter who is try- ing to corret the aftermath of a senseless "diet." the school when it closed, end- ing its long career as a Church of England voluntary-aided establishment. They have been transferred with their headmas- ter, S. J. Wilkinson, to St. Mark's School at nearby Ful- ham. Some of the sixth form students will be going to Laty- mer Upper School, The rest are leaving to go to work, The teaching. staff of the school is also being dispersed. "They were a great team,"' said Mr. Wilkinson, sadly. "You can- not find something like that overnight." Now the science master is off to the Bahamas; the geography teacher is going to Nyassaland, and the art mistress is sailing to Canada, Another teacher is taking training for a new post in Wolverhampton, LAST PRIZE-GIVING There was a touch of sadness when the pupils assembled in the school hall for its final prize-giving. Out came the 1830 silver pendant of crossed pens for the school's best boy at handwriting. Another received the 1842 prize for orthography, or, in less Victorian terms, spelling. A third was awarded an equally magnificent medal- lion for arithmetic. These heirlooms of three cen- turies of education, together with the cups, the Bibles, the photographs of honors boards coated with names, are to be set up in a special museum at the Latymer Upper School, where memories of the past will be kept alive. SCHOOL DESERTED | The next morning the last of the bric-a-brac thay helps to make up a school was being re- moved, Papers, twine, photo- graphs, books and paintings were being moved out of Mr. Wilkinson's study. The sch hall, still dressed up as a mock castle for. the boys' final dramatic production, was de- serted. The playground was empty. For the past two years par- ents and boys have fourht a losing battle with lawyers, ac- countants and authorities to hang on to this little corner of Hammersmith in the face of forces demanding redevelop. ment of the site Mr. Wilkinson looked: on the scene for the last time. Then he turned away and lef his be. loved school te the demolition workers. BY-GONE DAYS 33 YEARS AGO Excavation was begun for the proposed new Albert Sireet United Church which would cast $30,000.

The gourmet husband, on the other hand, has teared that an instant dinner in pill form would deprive him of the pleasures of eating. Now the scientists in the Foog Research Institute: of the fed- eral department of agriculture have developed a compromise which will produce a tasty din- mer without the time-consuming chore of preparation amid kit- chen smells, Tt all began with the 'instant tato."" These same scientists Ottawa developed pre-cooked dehydrated potato in flake or powder form which can quickly and simply be reconstituted into hot mashed potato. I for one am QUEEN'S PARK an instant-spud fan who cannot tell which potato contains the element of kitchen labor, And now the months of ex- perimental work in Ottawa are being put to practical applica- tion in the department of fish- erles food processing experi- mental plant at Valleyfield, near Gander in Newfoundland. COD CAME FIRST There an instant mix of cod- fish with potato is being pre- pared, for widescale testing pur- poses, First the cod is filletted. Then it is dried by a blast of hot air in a tunnel--a process which re- duces the months of sun-drying to a matter of days. Then the cod is cooked and pulverized, A few small bones may remain from the filletting process, but tnese are reduced to powder by the pulverizing. This powder is then mixed with powdered Government Main Issue In Election By DON O'HEARN TORONTO--What will the is- sues be? During the next several weeks as we fight an election cam- ign in the province we will ear a lot of talk about medical care, about university facilities, pensions, hospital accommoda- tion and housing. These will be presented to us as the ' issues" in the cam- paign, The government will talk about economic development and the need for more exports, fewer imports. and a purposeful rebuilding of our economy. Opposition speakers will de- ride what has been done and be critical of the lack of generous action in many fields. These will be presented as PARAGRAPHICAL WISDOM A wholly unnecessary sugges- tion has been made by a psy- chologist. He said one hobby all men should pursue is that of girl-watching. "The human skeleton has no wishbone," says an anatomist. Maybe so, but many a person has a wishbone where he should have a backbone, Some news of late seems to indicate that not all girl models are model giris A psychiatrist says children who commit vandalism do so because they are unhappy. May- be so, but. throwing rocks through schoolhouse windows seems a poor way to pursue happiness. As rare as the perfect bridge hand is, it probably isn't so rare as the perfect bridge partner. "To prevent those odd sun- tans caused by the cut of some high fashion bathing suits, alter- nate with a suit that exposes any area covered by the other." -- Detroit Free Press, Follow- ing this advice would result in double exposure one to arrest A professor says conversation as a dead art. It was talked to death. the issues, and probably ac- cepted as such, But to the writer they won't be, except as they reflect the main questions in this election, And these boil down to two: 1, Can the government--Pre- mier Robarts, that is--while re- maining in power rehabilitate an administration that has been 20 years in office and which has accumulated moss? : 2. Is there in the government the vision that the times call for? Mr. Robarts is an able man anda leader of some ability. He has shown this since. he has been in office, But he has not really been leading his own government. He has been head of an adminis- tration--a group of men, but even more important of atti- tudes and ways of doing things which he inherited. He is skippering a ship which has barnacles on its bottom. The question is whether he will be able to clean this. up if he is sent back with a mandate of his own, or whether he and his party have to be beaten at the polls--to be sent to drydock --really to do the job that is necessary. BOLDNESS NEEDED On the second point Mr. Ro- barts has shown that he is not one who believes in "bold" ac- tion, He has taken some good con- structive steps, but there is a reserve about him and his gov- ernment. He is patient and in- clined to be cautious. Is this the leadership we need today? The whole world is at a stage of great change. This applies to our province as much as any- where. Which is more important to us? Bold thought, with perhaps a touch of daring? Or thought which emphasizes reserve and security? This would seem to be the other main issue we will be meeting at the polls.

And admixes to provide cheaper and adequate forms of protein could be soya bean, sesame seeds, cotton seed and even sun- flower seeds. Housewives will be especially attracted by the deodorized fea- ture of this instant cooking. The kitchen is not swamped with the pungent odor of fish during the preparation; yet the served fish- cakes retain their slight per fume and delicate taste, TODAY IN HISTORY By THE CANADIAN PRESS Aug. 16, 1963 . .. British General Sir Isaac Brock attacked and cap tured Detroit 151 years ago today--in 1812 -- capturing Gen, Wiliam Hull and his army during the War of 1812. In the early months of the war Brock was the heart and soul of the de. fence of Upper Canada. For the audacity of his attack on Detroit, Brock was ga- zetted a K.C.B. although the news did not reach Canada until after his death in de feating American invaders at the Battle of Queensten Heights in October, 1812. 1825--The Republic of Bo- livia was prociaimed. 1941--Singer John Coates died, HIRAM WALKER & CRYSTAL GIN Fiavourdistilling from imported botanicals gives the perfect balance to CRYSTAL GIN.
