LINDSAY -- Milk produceérs and distributors in Victoria and surrounding counties aired their views on matters pertaining to the milk industry at a public in- Need Seen For Women In Politics Mrs. Ralph Jones, of Osh- awa, was on vacation at Pigeon Lake when some party member asked her to allow her name to) stand for nomination as a pos- sible Liberal candidate in the Oshawa Provincial Riding. 'An. executive. member of Oshawa and District Liberal Association, Mrs, Jones agreed. She returned to the city Wed- quiry at the government build- ing in Lindsay, Wednesday. A committee consisting of chairman Professor S. G. Hen- nessey, of the department of economics in University of To- ronto, Frank Wood, of Toronto, and St. Elmo V. Smith was ap- pointed by Agriculture Minister William Stewart to investigate all phases of producing, market- ing, processing and distributing milk in the province, and have been holding hearings through- out the province. Russell Little, of Little Brit- ain, presented a brief on behalf of District 3 of the Milk Pro- ducers' Association of Victoria, outlining steps which the asso- ciation felt would be beneficial to the milk industry in Ontario. nesday afternoon, On the same evening she announced her de- cision at a small meeting of members. f Pie nomination will not be official, however, until it is proved at a meeting next 'ednesday, September 4. Mrs. Jones, wife of an Osh- awa lawyer, lives at 929 Chevro- let street. She is the mother of four children, Donald, 13, Rob- ert, 8, Elizabeth, 5, and Mar- garet, 3. : Asked why she had decided to run, Mrs. Jones said that some party members felt they wanted a wonian candidate this time. "John Wintermeyer, the Provincial leader, had said he intended to get more women in Parliament to express the wom- an's point of view," she added. Mrs. Jones declared: 'Per- sonally, for a long time I have' felt that women _ generally should take a more active part), . . in politics. I have been inter- ésted in politics for a long time. "My teen-age boy is.extreme- ly interested in politics already and I think it's a good thing for a family to be interested in the affairs of their country." Mrs, Jones said she knew Mr. Wintermeyer personally and that she introduced him at a meeting in Oshawa last January when Robert Stroud was nomi- nated as the candidate. Mr. Stroud announced August 13 that he had resigned as party standard-bearer because of Mr. Robarts' "repeated delays' in calling an election and for "personal reasons." HARRY MILLEN of the Osh- awa and District Liberal As- sociation displays a map of the City of Oshawa being So Sorry But = Failing To File Cest $50 Fine CHATHAM (CP) -- Nearly everyone in court sympathized with Tassie Baxter, a Chatham real estate broker who paid a mandatory $50 fine for twice failing to file income tax forms to the department of national revenue, 'I appreciate the fact you don't think it's quite cricket," said Magistrate F. K. Jasper- son Thursday. "I also think the department would have can- celled the charge if it could have done so." "I sympathize with him but ,"" said RCMP Officer Dan Garreau. Defence counsel Clarence Ar- nold said: '"'No doubt there was a technical breach of the Taxa- tion Act, but from the stand- point of justice .. ." Mr. Baxter's accountant, Al- fred Gardiner of Windsor, Ont., testified he thought he had filed Mr. Baxter's return in Febru- ary. A letter from the depart- ment three months later said they had received no return. Mr. Gardiner was hurrying back to his office to check when he suffered a heart attack and could not return to work until July. Mr. Baxter received his summons in July. used by his organization in the current Provincial elec- tion campaign in preparation for the September 25 vote. Central Lab Is Proposed The district takes in Victoria county and part of Durham county. He said many farmers are dis- satisfied by. butter fat tests given at local dairies and that a central laboratory would re- move this grievance. The brief suggested that an impreved milk program for schools, and an increased advertising cam- paign would increase milk sales. The brief suggested a market- ing board to govern all provin- cial milk producers and dis- tributors be set up, and that a two-price system for secondary milk products such as cheese be set up on a domestic and world market basis. UNDER ONE PLAN Mr. Little said the entire milk industry, fluid milk, milk, man- ufactured milk products and milk products, should be under one plan, with a controlled pro- duction. "'We welcome all milk producers in Ontario into our as- sociation, if we are assured they will accept the controls which must be enforced," he said. He said milk quota figures would be regulated among farmers, on a seniority basis, with senior association fluid milk producers having prefer- ence in marketing of milk to dairies. Professor Hennessey, asked Mr. Little what advantage the producers of milk products' would have in such a plan, Mr. Little said that there could be a raise in consumer price for such milk by-products as ice-cream and cottage cheese, to give the producers a fair return. He said consumers feel the farmer can get along with "about half of what they want", and don't really care what hap- pens to him. The chairman ask- ed Mr. Little if he cared about! the people living in slums in To- ronto, and the farmer replied that most slum dwellers had enough money for wine, and didn't seem to want.to help themselves. SAVE INDUSTRY Clifford Johnson, field repre- sentative for the Federation of Agriculture in Peterborough county, presented a brief on be- half of the Concentrated Milk Producers of Peterborough County. He pointed out that one- third of the farmers in the coun- ty had other jobs, and said half of these were milk producers. He said he realized something had to be done to save the milk industry in the province, and said that when the farmers become educated in modern milking and marketing tech- niques they will produce twice as much milk. Representatives from several dairies were in attendance, and a brief was submitted from milk distributors in 13 markets lo- cated in the Peterborough zone. The distributors' brief claimed that the milk industry board was heavily weighted in favor of the milk producers and that any raising of the price of milk pro- ducts would resuit in diminish- ing returns, as people will only pay so much for produce, and then refuse to buy. The future of the small dairy in Ontario was discussed, and it was concluded that the. small operator could not survive with- out protection. Mr. Wood said there werersigns that the small- er dairies were going the way of the corner stores, submerged by the huge distributors. The committee will make re- commendation for a plan for the marketing of milk, applicable.to conditions in Ontario, after they have completed their inquiries. They will also recommend measures to promote the pro- duction, marketing, transport- ing, processing, and distribution of Ontario milk, fluid milk, manufactured milk products and fluid milk products. "Kin" Holds Convention The 42nd Annual Convention of the Association of Kinsmen Clubs is taking place in Hamil- ton, Ont., birthplace of the first Kinsmen Club. Kinsmen Club President Arthur Stone an- nounced today that local mem- bers attending the convention are Hugh Revell, Gord Garri- son and Bruce Madky, accom- panied by their wives. During the four-day confer- ence, representatives of -some 400 Kinsmen Clubs from all ten Canadian Provinces will discuss the operations of the association at the national level, and will elect a new executive for the 12-month period start- ing September 1. The conven- tion will deal with resolutions which have been forwarded by the National Executive Coun- cil, and individual clubs through their respective district conven- tons. The convention ends Sat- urday. Expected to come in for con- siderable discussion during the convention is the World Council of Young Men's Service Clubs, a world-wide group of autono- mous service organizations which includes in addition to Kinsmen, the Apex Clubs of Australia and:New Zealand, Round Tables of Great Britain, Europe, Africa, and India and Active 20-30 Intemational with clubs throughout North, Cen- tral and South America.

The association will also wel- come the founder of the first Kinsmen Club, formed in Ham- ilton in 1920, to his 42nd National Convention. Harold A. Rogers has witnessed the growth of Kin from one small group of men in Hamilton to over 12,000 members, Considered an excel- lent means of training for men between the ages of 21 and 40, the Association of Kinsmen Clubs owes its growth to the enthusiasm of its membership for the aims and objects of Kin, which includes education of its members in business and pro- fessional methods and ethics, the stimulation of interest, in the welfare of his community, the upholding of constitutional authority, the fostering of a spirit of equality between all nations and all peoples, and the carrying on of service work within their community. ee To Head Only 3 Depts. Oshawa's new Director of 0 erations will, all proba! ity, be named at next Tuesday night's city council meeting. Council met in committee Wednesday night and 'agreed on| one of six men interviewed at City Hall last week. City Personnel Officer Dan Fleming said today a tentative agreement has been reached and the city is awaiting con- firmation of the terms by the successful applicant, 'He will be responsible for the administration and co-ordination of activities of three depart- ments: engineering, parks and) public works. The salary range is $11,550 to $14,250, Glooscap Story Told Glooscap, according to In- dian scholar Charles Leland, is "by far the grandest and most sophisticated character ever evolved from a savage mind." * The legends of Glooscap were told in the wigwams of the Wa- banaki Indians of the Eastern Woodlands long before the white man came to North America: Passed down through genera- tions of the Wabanaki the taies of Glooscap are now available to Canadian children in a new published this week by McClel- land and Stewart. The author, Kay Hill, first adapted Glooscap legends tor Television. Miss Kathleen Cur- rie, Chief Children's Librarian of the Halifax Memorial Li- brary appeared in Indian dress to tell the stories and the re- sulting programs were shown across Canada and in parts of the United States. The Wabanaki, a group of ini- gratory forest tribes, shared in Glooscap a'common hero, demi- god and master magician. Ac- cording to \legend he created the Indians by shooting his ar- rows into the forest. From each tree struck by an arrow stepped a man or woman. Unlike- most of the heroes North Amen- can Indians' 0 appear as tricksters mixing kindness and malice, Glooscap is always a benefactor and friend :o the Indians. Scholars compare the bold artistic style and humor of the Glooscap legends to Norse mythology. Like Qdin of the Norse legends, Glooscap is al- ways a gentleman. Like Loki, the Norse devil, Lox of the Wa- banaki is a mixture of crudity and malevolence, This curious resemblance suggests that the two mythologies may have evolved from a common source. - Miss Hill, who adapted the Glooscap: legends for children in Glooscape and his Magic lives near the legendary site of Glooscap's lodge at Blomidon, on the Bay of Fundy. For the past 15 years she has written extensively for Canadian radio, television and magazines. Her television play 'Three to Get Married" was produced on General Motors Presents and broadcast in Canada, England and Australia. Canada Council Role Undecided LONDON,. Ont. (CP) -- The Canada Council's role in pro- moting study and research in the sciences with grants from an anonymously donated fund eventually to total $4,250,000 likely will not be decided for another four months, it was an- nounced Wednesday. Council Director Dr. A. W. Trueman said following a spe- cial committee meeting held to decide uses for the initial dona- tion of $1,250,000 that the council still must consider the commit- tee's recommendations. The eight member committee met in closed session in con- junction with the meeting of the council held here Monday and Tuesday. i Labor Day, 1963, marks the beginning of a new concept in providing health care, a con. cept sponsored for a commu- nity by organized labor. It. will also signal more and more in- tensive action in the field of safety. The Canadian section of the United Steelworkers wants to pay public tribute to the mem- bers of our union and associ- ated members of the general public in Sault Ste. Marie, On- tario, whose Group Health Care clinic begins providing service on September 1. Medicare and doctor . patient relationship con- troversies both point up the gulf which has been pty widen- ng over recent years\ between those who practice and those who must make Use of the heal- ing arts. We hope that this ex- periment in a co-operative re- lationship between the medical profession and medical care consumers will be the. beginning of the end of such a division in the future. Co-operative joint responsibil- New Concept In Health © ity for health must be the pat- tern for safety as well. It is an unfortunate commentary on our way of life that a national pol- icy honoring labor has become a national holocaust of industry and death. But these grim sta- tistics are only part of a total picture of accident and illness on and off the job which must be tackled seriously by a sane society. The formation of citi- zens' safety councils shows a willingness to assume responsi- blity for safety by the ordi- nary citizen, rather than leav- ing it all up to authority in the shape of armies of traffic policemen and -- or inspectors or page after page of amended and re-amended bylaws and regulations. The same thing must happen on the job. Man- agement, unsuccessfully depend- ing upon the prestige of author- ity alone, must be prepared to share the job of securing safety by sharing authority with those who suffer from lack of safety, the employee acting through book Glooscap and his Magic,| * 'She Oshavwin Times 3ECOND SECTION OSHAWA, ONTARIO, FRIDAY, AUGUST 30, 1963 PAGE NI Two local unions signed an agreement with an Oshawa earthmoving contractor last Thursday.
