he Oshawe anes ° Published by Canadian Newspapers Limited ' 86 King St. E., Oshawa, Ontario T. L. Wilson, Publisher TUESDAY, OCTOBER 15, 1963---PAGE 6 Butler Named Favorite To Succeed Macmillan British bookmakers have instal- led Richard Austen Butler as an odds-on favorite to succeed Harold Macmillan as Britain's prime minis- ter -- for a short while at least -- and leader of the Conservative party. Butler is listed at two to one in the ministerial stakes. Viscount Hailsham is offered at nine to five, Chancellor of the Exchequer Maud- ling at five to one, and Foreign Secretary the Earl of Home at 12% to one. The Conservative method of choosing a leader is a rather myster- ious one. There is no convention no balloting. The leader emerges, in a way, after a certain amount of informal polling of Conservative MPs and constituencies, and private discussions between leading figures in the party. é There will, then, be no election to choose a successor to Macmillan. Two or three influential party figures test feeling in the cabinet, Parliament and the party machine, and then pass the word to the Queen. In due course the man chosen is summoned to the palace to receive the seals of office. Conservatives lay great stress on the fact that it is the Queen's "pre- rogative" to choose the leader. It is an empty prerogative, however, since it merely confirms a choice already made. The Conservatives have usually found the method of selection cosy and satisfactory, but there is a growing feeling that a more precise formula is needed, particularly in a situation as now exists. Mr. Butler is the betting favorite, but there is no obviously command- ing figure in Tory ranks to carry out the kingmaker role filled by Sir Winston Churchill and the Mar- quess of Salisbury during the last crisis of leadership in January, 1957. The outstanding figure is Macmillan himself who will un- doubtedly play a big part in the selection, aided by Lord Home, the colleague to whom he seems most closely attached --. and this may work against Mr. Butler and for someone like Lord Hailsham, who has said he will give up his title, if necessary, to "help" the party: Itchy Trigger Fingers The fall hunting season"is barely under way but already one hunter has mistaken another for a bear-- and killed him, incidentally -- and several others have either managed to get themselves lost or wounded themselves by jnept handling of their weapons. Let us hope, however, that this season's hunters, despite such an inauspicious start, are less trigger happy or better eyesight than those of previous years. But unless there : is a radical change, this season will again show that a_ remarkable number pf hunters are extra- ordinarily quick on the trigger and have something less than 20-20 vision. There will be the usual casu- alties among domestic ducks, chick-_ ens pigeons, sheep, cows and barns -- but after all, it takes sharp vision and a lot of woodsy craft to separate the sheep from the birds. The moose hunting has started up north, but the main deer-and moose season has yet to come -- the happy season when the woods and trails become a major battleground. It is then that the forests tremble under the stealthy tramp of the hawk- eyed, steel-nerved hunters who, armed to the teeth and fortified to gullet, stalk the tall timber ever ready to pour death into a tremb- ling bush or riddle a sudden shadow, Our best wishes-go, as in former years, to those hunters who treat their weapons and their hunting grounds with respect. They are in the majority, and they do not get themselves into the publie. prints except when they get the blame for the damage done by gun-toting hoodlums or become the victims of trigger-happy idiots, Country's Big Killer Heart disease is our country's number one killer. Each year more than 66,000 Canadians die as a ' result of heart and blood circulatory | disorders. In addition, there are in Canada some 1,250,000 persons, in- cluding 50,000 children who have been disabled by heart disease. The Ontario Heart Foundation is the number one defence against this dread killer. Medical scientists, supported by the Ontario Heart Foundation, have made dramatic progress in saving and prolonging the lives of thousands of heart vic- tims. Research has already provided the knowledge needed to reduce recurrences of heart attacks, pre- vent rheumatic fever, repair dama- ged heart valves, develop heart-lung machines and perfect drugs which retard blood clothing. But more re- search is needed to find the answers to heart attack, stroke, heart failure, high blood pressure and other forms of heart disease. You, your family and your busi- The Oshawa Times T. L.

McINTYRE HOOD Special London (Eng.) Correspondent For The Oshawa Times LONDON -- An organization known as "Aims. of Industry", claiming to have a membership of 4,000 British companies, has fired the first gun in a cam- paign to discredit the Labor party's nationalization policies in advance of the next general election. The opening of the campaign was well timed, since it coincided with the holding of, the Labor tional ough. The attack on nationalization by this organization is a two- pronged one. The first broadside came to. my desk the other day in the form of a once only issue of a mock 12-page newspaper entitled "Daily State'. And the second took the form' of a pamphlet under the title of "Creeping Nationalization', in- tended to reveal the wide na- ture of Socialist plans for na- tionalization should the Labor party come into power. SATIRICAL PICTURE The mock newspaper 'Da ly State" was a highly professional job. Dated.for the year 1976, it presented a satirical picture of Britain in that year, following the return of a government ded- icated to the spread of national- ization. When distributed to delegates at the Labor Party conference, it produced a violently angry re- action, and brought about a_re- newal of Labor's former pro- party's annual na- conference at Scarbor- °tests about the undisclosed use of company funds for political purposes. The "Daily State' presents a picture of a Britain under So- cialist government which has carried out its full plans of na- tionalization. It is a Britain in whch food, clothing and gaso- Ine are severely rationed. The National Health service allows only prescriptions for aspirins, and the building of ncw homes has declined to 100,000 a year. Even football transfers have been placed under state control, and are paid for only in food coupons. There is one national television program, and com- mercial stations that are all classified "rebels", with teams of spotters trying to hunt them down. There are riots in Downing Street:because of food rationing. And the -Communist party has been wound up, be- cause it says that all of its main objectives have been achieved. The "Daily State" claims that nothing 'n its pages is intended to be for or against any political party as such, 'Indeed', it states, "if only one facet of political policy, as embodied in a certain Clause Four, is drop ped, none of the events imag- YOUR HEALTH as ined in these columns is likely to happen." VIOLENT PROPAGANDA In spite of this statemeni, there can be no mis.aking the fact that this mock newspaper is political propaganda of the most violent type. In the pamphlet 'Creeping Nationalization', a different line is taken. By quoting state- ments from Labor leaders and party members, it claims to prove false the belief that Labor plans for public ownership were limited to renationatization of steel and road haulage. It claims that a substantial expan- sion of public ownership of in- dustry is threatened. This publication is also a po- tent weapon of political propa- ganda, and it has aroused the ire of the Labor conference dele- gates. I would not be surprised if these two publications come up for discussion in the Com- mons when . parliament 're- assembles. Abortion Tragedy Can't Be Undone By JOSEPH G. MOLNER, MD Dear Dr. Molner: My daugh- ter is 16, not married, and, preg- nant. A friend sent me some pills she got 'from her doctor, put I am. half afraid to give them, because my daughter is between two and three months along. Will they cause any dan- ger? Is this what you call an abortion?--MRS. F. R. L. These pathetic cases bother all of us; however, we: can't blink at the facts: Illicit preg- nancies occur by the thousands, and venereal disease occurs oftener. There is a strong trend in both of these problems among teen-agers. I don't know what- the pills are or whether they, might be harmful. But this I can say, Mm the hope that it will explode some decrepit and sometimes dangerous folklore: There are no pills that will undo an estab- lished pregnancy. Yes, I've heard of wild the- ories advanced by people who insist that they "know for a fact" that such and such a med- icine will. cause an abortion. (Yes, if by any means you ter- minate the pregnancy other than by having the baby born, it is an abortion.)

Stevenson, society superintendent, inform- ed the meeting that he was of the opinion that the apparent in- crease in juvenile delinquency was the fault of the parents -- not the children. Garnet ©. Johnstone, inspec- tor for the Oshawa Humane So- ciety,-had enlisted in a motor- ized unit of the Canadian army. A delegation of citizens from the town of Ingersoll visited Oshawa and made an inspection of the McLaughlin Band Shell. Consider this fact: When, un- der certain unusual circum: stances, an abortion. is per- mitted and .performed by a qualified doctor for good med- ical reason, it is done surgi- eally. If it could be done with medicine, then it would be so done. But surgical méthods are the only sure ones--and they are dangerous under the conditions which prevail when a girl or woman "waits to get rid of a baby." Quite aside from the mora] considerations, such abor- tions are done hastily (to thwart the law) and the young woman is put on her own at once. If there are complications, she is left without help either to recognize or to treat them. The result may be crippling; it may be death. We can't help feeling sorry for these young teen-agers who get into trouble, but from the health standpoint alone, disre- garding moral or legal consider- ations, when a pregnancy oc- curs, there is great danger in trying to abort it. Instead, consult your doctor, your pastor, your attorney, and consult your heart, too. Decide on that basis what to do, but - do not attempt abortion. Your can work your way through troubles. You cannot undo the tragedies that continue to occur when abortions are attempted. Dear Dr. Molner: I have had osteo.- arthritis -for .20 years. Sometimes I hold up pretty well and again I get flare-ups. Would living in Florida help? I find that when visiting there I al- ways feel so good.

Others note no difference, so | am perpetu- ally cautious about attaching too much importance to cli- mate.

Bossy, Polish-born psychologist and educationist, says Canada's minority enthnic groups fear their viewpoint will be ignored in any revision of the constitu- tion. He says they reject the con- tenton that the two founding peoples alone lave the right to revise the terms of Confedera- tion. : ! Dr. Bossy, 64, makes the re- marks in an open letter to Andre Laurendeau of Montreal, co-chairman of the royal com- mission on bilingualism and bi- culturalism., He says Canadians of other than English or French extrac- tion now make up 5,000,000 of Canada's 19,000,000 people and qualify "as a new partner, to be considered seriously'in the adjustment of Confederation." Although 90 per cent of them have adopted English as their main | of expression, he says, they do not consider themselves either English or French, but simply Canadian. They remained proud of their traditions and origins, but owed no allegiance to "mother. coun- tries or mother cultu es" as the main Canadian cultures did. TOOK SURVEY Their aim, he says, is to pre- serve Canada as a multicul- tural, not necessarily multilin- gual, mosaic. English was adopted as the main tongue be- cause it was natural in the North American community of 200,000,000 English - speaking people. Dr. Bossy said in an inter- view his interpretation of what ethnic minorities want came from an extensive 18-month sur- vey. He said he circulated a ques- tionnaire to 169 ethnic newspa- pers and 1,092 ethnic associa- tions. He said he studied results of answers to the questionnaire, editorials and letters to the edi- tors in the newspapers, and per- sonal letters sent to.him by or- ganizations as a result. QUEEN'S PARK Separated into their various language and cultural groups, the ethnic minorities have not been able to make a common statement of their viewpoint, he said. He hoped his letter would make it clearer. Dr. Bossy, who recently re- tired from the Montreal Roman Catholic schoo! commission for which he taught-and held vari- ous administrative posts, was educated at the University of Lublin, Poland, the University of Montreal and the University of Ottawa. He. speaks English, French, German, Polish and other Slavic languages, FEAR CONFLICT In his open letter he says the ethnic groups are impartial in F-ench-Canadian and English- Ceadian elements, even though they may speak English. Some of the issues being debated "'can- not appear to them other than as being anachronistic." "What the ethnic groups dread and resent would be their being drawn into such conflicts as tepmorarily useful ad hoe allies or satellites to one or the other of the contending par- ties.' He cites an editorial in the Montreal newspaper La Presse as ty'peal of the French-Cana- dian position that Canada was formed as a partnership of two groups. Immigrants arriving late- came to a country in which the law recognized only the French and English Jan- guages as official. They ac- cepted this. Thus, the editorial concluded, they "cannot have exactly the same rights" in revision of the Confederation pact that the founding cultural groups had. Dr. Bossy says 'demands such as those quoted are in- compatible with mature nation- hood and give rise to serious fears of the disintegration 'of Canada as an enitty." It was essential to recognize that Canada was-no longer com- posed of two, but. of three, demographic elements. Government Holds Great Advantages By DON O'HEARN ' TORONTO--Is all provincial government so good or is there something slightly out of kilter with our system? In the last year or so there have been eight provincial elec- tions. In each case the government in power was returngd--in most cases with an increased major- ity. a In Ontario everybody, from Premier Robarts down, ex- pected the government major- ity would be reduced. : In British Columbia _practi- cally all observers were pre- dicting at least a reduced ma- jority and probably minority government, Instead, Premier Bennett swept back as nobly as Mr. Robarts did here. THAT GOOD? This is bad to those of us who believe that good government calls for strong oppositions. Without them -- as N Leader Donald MacDonald aptly put it--you can get gov- ernment for the government rather than government for the people. And, without denying that both the Robarts and Bennett governments were: good, were they that good? Or was there something going for them which weighs against the balanced judgment of the people? PUBLICITY POTENTIAL There is one factor, at least, and it would seem to deserve some thought. This is the tremendous public and promotion potential that rests with any government in power. While the opposition most of the time must just sit by a gov- ernment is doing things. TODAY IN HISTORY Oct, 15, 1963 Hurricane Hazel roared into the Toronto area nine years ago tonight--in 1954-- and left 82 dead and $24,- 000,000 in property damage within two days of terror. The. hurricane had been blowing itself out south of the border when it met up w:th a cold front over Lake Ontario, producing the heav- iest rains in southern .On- tario's history. 1944--The death of Ger- man Field Marshal Rom- me! was announced. 1917 -- Germany's famed woman spy Mata Hari was executed at Paris. It is building bridges and roads and schools and hospitals and setting up health plans. All are news, and, incidentally, a plug for the government. In these days of radio and television as well as the regular press this means; the govern- ment and its mentbers are con- tinually in the public eye. In addition, it can promote itself through names and pic- tures on booklets, advertise- ments and road signs. ALL "LEGITIMATE" This is all "legitimate." But it places the opposition at a tremendous disadvantage. Mostly all it can do that gets it publicity is to criticize. And it doesn't want to do too much of this. It doesn't want the image of harping. And the news. media will report only so much "'criti- cism"--except when it is sen- sational. This is one of the problems of the new day to which our system has not adjusted. Per- haps it never will. But for the sake of the system one can wish our politicians would recognize the weakness and show more restraint.
