2 THE OSHAWA TIMES, Saturdey, Februcry 29, 1964 GOOD EVENING -- ByJACKGEARIN --. MR. CAHILL HOLDS THE LIMELIGHT The man who holds the spotlight at City Hall these days (in the absence of Mayor Lyman Gifford) 1s Kevin Cahill, the 57-year-old Director of Operations, Cahill took over last October at a salary of $12,900 in this newly-created post recommended in the Woods, Gordon Re- port. As co-ordinator of three operating departments (Parks and Recreation, Board of Works and Engineering), he was handed the toughest job ever assigned a local de- partment head in modern times. It was tough primarily be- cause of this city's badly out- moded municipal govern- ment set-up designed for the horse-and-buggy days. It was made tougher because the creation of such a post was never overly popular in cer- tain municipal circles, des- pite lip service to the con- KEVIN 4H trary. -- Cahill, brisk, personable and efficient, gives every impression of being the right man for the right job, but much of his activity thus far has been clouded in secrecy (included his much-discussed Cahill Report on the Board of Works Yard), thanks to the insistence of City Council. Cahill actually has been operative only in two of the three departmenis for which he was originally assigned (Board of Works and Parks-and Recreation), and this brings us to the keynote point of the story. City Council will. meet in committee either Monday or Tuesday to decide when he is to take over as co-ordinator also for the City Engineering Department, some of whose operations were soundly criticized in the aforementioned W-G Report. Cahill and Council have been religiously silent on the matter, but grumbling has been heard that he would never be allowed proper control over Engineering. Acting Mayor Hayward Murdoch assured this Department Friday that such was not the case, that the only question to be decided is when Mr. Cahill takes over. BOARD STANDS FIRM ON HIRING "WIVES" PRACTICE The Board of Education acted with dispatch, strong un- animity in the ranks Monday on a contentious, far-reaching motion, one that has already had widespread repercussions. Should the wives of trustees be deprived of the right to work for the Board if the trustees refuse to resign (as pro- posed by Trustee Margaret Shaw, the gallant champion of un- causes)? or pene replied "certainly not" in no uncertain terms (Trustee Chairman George K.

Mr. Pearson told the Com- Psychological Barrier Hits UK Exporters LONDON (CP) -- Trade Min- ister Sharp said Friday a "psy- chological barrier' has hamp- ered British exporters in their trade with Canada. Reviewing three days of talks with government and business officials, the Canadian minister said the barrier arose from & series of reasons. | These included Canadian sur-| charges, now abolished, the dol-| lar exchange rate which, how- ever, now has been stabilized for| a few years, and British com-/ plaints about Canadian customs) valuation procedures. | But Sharp said the British--| |who are at the wrong end of a | two-to-one trade imbalance with! |Canada--raised no new points) in 'the discussions although! "more concrete evidence was) placed before us."' LEARNED NOTHING NEW "I don't think we have learned anything of a radical. new nature," Sharp told a press conference, but he emphasized the importance of face-to-face meetings. Canadian exports to Britain | totalled more than $1,000,000,000 last year while return trade barely exceeded $500,000,000. | Sharp met Trade Minister |Heath three times and also held | talks with officials of the. fed- {eration of British industries and j with Anglo-Canadian investment |figures here. A planned meeting with Agriculture Minister Chris- |topher Soames was cancelled because of the British minis ter's. illness. H Regarding the attitude of in- vestors, Sharp said "the pend- ulum has begun to swing back a little and there is a renewed interest in Canada."' But he in-| dicated the swing was not great as yet. | The minister felt his trip--he| returns to Canada today--had been successful in its two main To hear at first hand jorary president of the Democratic Party, the succes-'the directives they have issued PM Looking For oting Experts mons early this week that the government plans to set up "a very small coramittee of in- quiry, the members of which in our view should be people with practical political know- ledge but who are not now ac- tive politicians.' The speculation is that Mr. Pearson is thinking in terms of former MP's or cabinet. minis- ters with sound experience in fniancing election campaigns. He may also be considering senators, Among the ex-politicians are a number of former Liberal: and Progressive Conservative cab- inet ministers with the kind of special knowledge needed. SEVERAL LIBERALS On the Liberal side are for- mer finance minister Walter Harris, now practising law at Markham, Ont.; former public works minister Robert Winters, now chairman of a mining cor- poration, and former justice minister Stuart Garson, practis- ing law in Winnipeg. The Liberals also have two senators who are acknowledged experts in the field. One is Sen- ator C. G. Power, who sat in the Commons from 1917 until 1944, A second is Senator Dan Lang, a Toronto lawyer who was chairman of the Liberals' Ontario campaign committee for the 1962 ad 1963 election campaigns. The Conservatives have at least three experts in election expenses, One is former state secretary Ernest Halpenny of London, Ont., who headed the financial side of his party's elec- tion campaign in 1962 and 1963. BELL A POSSIBILITY Others are former immigra-| tion minister Richard Bell, an Ottawa lawyer and former na- tional director of the party and Senator Allister Grosart, Mr. Bell's successor as national di- rector from 1957 until 1962, Former CCF national. leader M. J. Coldwell also is being mentioned as a possible mem- ber of the inquiry. He {is hon- New sor to the CCF.

August Choquette (L--Lotbin- iere) told the house he hopes that all 'colonial links' with Britain will eventually be sev- ered, Mr. Choquette, who wants Canada to become a republic, later gave notice of a resolu- tion proposing a national refer- endum on seven steps which would eliminate official connec- tions between Canada and Brit- ain, These include the replacement of the Queen as head of state for Canada, abolition of the "British subject" status of Ca- nadian citizens, adoption of a flag not containing the Union Jack, and deletion of the word) Depending on how the coun- try meets the challenge, it could bring widespread unemploy- ment or else '"'progress and af- fluence undreamed of a few years ago."

This was not a one-way street, with valid arguments on only one side. The Oshawa practice of hiring trustees' wives dated back to the mid-1940's, was frequently prompted by a desperate shortage of qualified teachers; what was. more important, every trustee (with the exception of one or two late arrivals) had supported the policy at one time or another either by a show of. hands or by mere silence. Mrs, Shaw strongly emphasized one point -- she said all of the working wives were hired by the Board after their husbands were elected. Whatever the unquestioned merits of the policy in the past, and they have been eloquently championed in recent days, many taxpayers have been disturbed by its continu- ance -- they sincerely believe that the picture has changed drastically, that the once-useful policy is now archaic, harm- ful to the public image of the board (as Mrs. Shaw argued) regardless of how widespread the practice may be through- out the province. The point that disturbs many, even those who previously endorsed the policy, is that there may be a repetition of these time-consuming, acrimonious debates that seriously delay important Board business. Has there ever been.so much time lost by a local Board on pointless debate? One trustee recalled bitterly this month that the Board had spent 24 hours ina single week on this explosive subject (yet he voted against the Monday motion). Trustee Shaw's motion was overwhelmingly rejected, yet her intrepid performance was not without achievement (if it did sink her popularity rating on the board to an all-time low) -- not only did she succeed in getting the Board to go on record officially on an all-important issue, she also brought the matter dramatically out in the open to the attention of the public. This is what counts most of all, that the public be kept fully informed on important matters. : There is a strong need in municipal life today for such | General Cass said Friday no ac- | tion will be taken on the Fann | |time for an appeal. complaints and suggestions of British exporters; and to. tell| | what is going on in Canada and| give the.

With the Viet Cong pressing its military successes, that less restrictive import poli- cies by other developed coun- tries would not only help us in dealing with our own difficul- ties but would greatly ease the problem of market disruption in world trade generally," he said.
