Wilson, Publisher THURSDAY, JULY 9, 1964 --- PAGE 6 Stadium Proposal Many-sided, City Council appears to have acted with wisdom in delaying until September any final decision on the offer of $150,000 for the Kinsmen Civie Stadium. The proposed sale is a complex, 'many-sided question affecting many- hundreds of people, people 'who built the stadium many years 'ago with their financial contribu- tions. : The delay in reaching a final de- cision has undoubtedly irked sev- eral of our councillors who sin- 'cerely feel that enough time has been spent already exploring the many facets of the proposal, in- cluding what the public think. There is one good point about the decision made Monday -- it is not irrevocable; if any harm has been done it can be remedied in September because this latest offer, the second in something like 12 months, does not expire until next October. Alderman Clifford Pilkey, for one, sounded an effective note when he asked what the "rush" was to sell the controversial property in view of the fact that the price offered had been increased by some $65,000 in some 12 months. Mr. Pilkey can visualize a much higher offer at some not-too-distant date "because the property is extremely -- valuable -- do we: have to sell it at the first offer?" Whether or not Mr. Pilkey's pro- gnostications are too optimistic in regards to price, considerable public interest has been noted in recent weeks. in regards to the' proposed sale; there is nothing wrong with proceeding cautiously and with de- termining the wishes of the major- ity in this all-important matter. First and foremost, is the price right?; if this is decided in the affirmative, what: section of the City should the re-location take place in. Mayor Lyman Gifford's proposal for a northeast re-location has considerable merit in view of the fact that other sectors have some stellar attractions such as the Simcoe Hall Boys' Club in the southeast and the Civic Auditorium in the West. Mr. Gifford is perfectly right when he says that the proposal should be finally disposed of by Council in September. Conflicting Castros The recent defection of Fidel Castro's sister Juanita makes startling news, notes the Belleville Intelligencer. Of course, there are many stances of members of the same family holding conflicting political opinions. Stanley Baldwin, pre-war Conservative Prime Minister of Britain, had a son who was a pro- minent .Laborite. There was a time when Chiang Kai-Shek's son was considered a Red. But there is an important dis- tinction between a mere difference of political opinions and the type of tirade which Miss Castro unleashed against her brothers, Fidel and Raoul, after she reached Mexico City. Nothing that any of the other in- about any exiles have said Castro's regime has _ been stronger than the charges levied by Castro's own sister. She even described how her brother's militia- men fired on a Catholic demonstra- tion in which she participated. "I saw the boy carrying the banner of the Virgtn-of Charity beaten to death by these men." Cuban' Some earlier critics were suspec They might have been flunkeys for the ousted Batista, whose brutality while in power has been. well docu- mented. The same suspicion does not apply to Juanita Castro. Her ac- count will be given credence by thousands who in the past wondered whether charges of this type were not pure propaganda. A Triumph For Reason The healing influence of law is now much more widely: at work in the civil rights dispute, states the Christian Science Monitor. Law is the means by which men make peaceable adjustments within the basic rules of a democratic society. The alternative, where law breaks down and men with a grievance have no other recourse, is violence. It is a triumph for reason that such a ldfge voting majority in Congress agreed on a carefully drawn civil-rights law: It is a triumph for constructive emotion which can drain off some of the frustration felt on all sides. For there is broad agreement that the Negro must have his proper place under the American sun. But negotiation had largely broken down as the crisis intensi- fied. There seemed to be no ade- quate way to keep the process of transition moving. History had be- come stalled at a. point just short of conflict, with both sides drawn Bbe Oshawa Times 7.

McINTYRE HOOD Special London (Eng.) Correspondent to The Oshawa Times LONDON -- The new govern- ment department of industry, which comes under the juris- diction of Edward Heath, is moving ahead - rapidly wtih YOUR HEALTH plans to bring industry to the areas of high unemployment in Britain, Its latest announce- ment is that nine more ad- vance factories are to be built in these areas within the next year. All of the buildings, according Rheumatic Fever Can Hurt Hearts By JOSEPH G. MOLNER, MD Dear Dr. Molner: In reading about pace - makers, synthetic valves and heart operations, I am wondering whether such surgery can be anplied to hearts damaged by rheumatic fever. Or is rheumatic : fever damage more serious and not helped by operations? I am thinking particularly of a per- son who had rheumatic fever at 10, is now 49, and, according to the doctor, has had more at- tacks in between.--Mrs. .G.S. Much of the heart surgery be- ing performed today is to al- leviate the damage from rheu- matic fever. A great amount is done for other reasons, too, particularly for defects which have been present from birth Rheumatic fever (caused by a streptococcus germ) has the habit of inflaming the -- heart valves. They: heal, but scar tis- sue builds up and prevents the valve or valves from' opening and closing properly. The mitral valve is most likely to be affected but others can be damaged, too. Each case has to' be judged individually. Is the damage ser- ious enough to warrant sur- gery, or is it rather slight? What is the physical condition of the patient otherwise? And so on Rheumatic fever has caused an enormous number of defec- tive hearts. Only in the last decade or so have we really made progress in preventing it. You can't see the first attack coming--but once a person has had it, you know that he is sus- ceptible and is likely to have it again. What can we do? Give anti- biotics,. especially penicillin, to prevent the streptococcus from getting started again. One good method is to use a' form of penicillin which absorbs very slowly, so that one shot a month will provide continuous protection TODAY IN HISTORY By THE CANADIAN July 9, 1964, .. British and troops under 'General Ber- nard Montgomery mounted a massive attack upon Caen 20 years ago today--in 1944 --after -softening up Ger- man forces with a heavy aerial' bombardment. The German lines broke and they were flung back in one of the major victories fol- Jowing the Normandy inva- sion in the Second World War 1793--The slaves into was hanned 1843--The Prince Albert the first iron steamer built in Canada, was launched at Montreal. PRESS Canadian importation of Upper Canada As a result of this, as well as improved treatment of acute attacks, more awareness of the danger, and refined diagnostic techniques, fewer rheumatic hearts are developing. The pity is that, now that so much can be done, too. many people still do not avail them- selves of this protection Dear Dr. Molner: I have a friend who was found to have very low sugar in her blood. She is on a starchless and sugar- less diet for this. Is that cor- rect? People with too much Sugar are on the same kind of diet.--W.F. Yes, the diet is correct even though it may. sound odd at first. Hating sugars and starch, in such cases, speeds up the rate at which the blood sugar is used up, so another penod of low blood sugar soon occurs. Eating more protein, which is more slowly convetted, pre- vents this, and keeps the blood sugar level fairly stable over a longer time. Dear Dr. Molner: What is encephalitis? Is there a cure for it? Is it fatal?--A.B. It is a general term for in- flammation of the brain--an or- ganism of some sort sets up an infection. It is always danger- ous bul not always fatal. It de- pends on whether the infection can. be controlled. Encephalitis may follow some other disease, measles and polio being two examples of viruses reaching the brain. It is possible for many types of infection to be involved, including even fun- gus in some cases. Dear Dr. Molner: Please ex- plain a 12 per cent hemoglobin count, Why would a chest X-ray be necessary if this count does not rise?--MRS. M K. 1 question whether you mean 12 per cent, as it is. more usual to measure hemoglobin (that is, the oxygen-carrying part of the blood) in terms such as '12 grams per cent," which means "12 grams per 100 cubic centi- meters of blood." This would be a low. normal value for a woman. If you do indeed mean 12 per cent, that would be extremely low and in- dicate some form of anemia. If so, the X-rays would be to see whether some disease of the Jungs might be causing it Dear Dr. Momer: Can a wo- man of 69 hope to recover from osteoporosis of the lower spine, I'm' in. much pain?--FBS Complete recovery cannot be promised, but relief from pain is possible. Osteoporosis is a weakening. of the bones from loss of calcium. © Physical activity is neces- sary, Without it, there is no way a doctor can retard or reverse this loss of calcium. Bones need exercise to stay strong Hormones are usually fo help the deficiency. They also help maintain. bone strength. Another essential is a diet high in protein, calcium and Vitamin C. given to present plans, will be avail- able for occupation by new in- dustries by the second half of 1965 Of the nine new advance fac- tories to be built, five are to be located in Scotland, three in the northeast and _ northwest area of England and one in Wales The locations and sizes of the factories to be built are as fol- lows Scotland: At Donibristle, in Fife, 27,500 square feet; at Dun- dee, 27,500 square feet; in the Kirkcaldy area of Fife, 27,500 square feet; at Queenslie, 27,500 square feet; in the Vale .of Leven. 17,500 square feet England: Northeast Hartle- pools, 25,000 square feet; in the Jarrow area, 50,000 square feet; at Barrow in the northwest, 25,- 000 square feet Wales: In the Liangefni area, 10,000 square feet. TENANTS FOUND So far as Scotland is concern- ed, this announcement brings the Board of Trade's advance factory program for that coun- try up to 22. Of these, tenants have already been found for six, while the negotiations for a sev- enth .at Whitburn, are near- ing completion. Three of the new factories to be erected, at Donibristle, Kirk- caldy and the Vale of Leven, are within the government's new'y-deignated growth areas in Central Scotland. Together, the factories will provide 127,- 500 square feet of industrial space in the central belt. On the accepted ratio of jobs to space, (four per 1,000 feet) they will have a potential of over 500 new jobs All of the factories being built in advance of demand are to go up on sites which will provide room for expansion, so that the needs..of the tenants can be met if they require more space than originally pro- posed. 'The Scottish factories, with the exception-of the one at Kirkcaldy, and the factory at Hartlepools, are to be built on land which is already owned by the Board of Trade This latest program of build- ing factories in advance of de- mand, to be either sold or rent- ed to industrial concerns on very favorable terms will bring the number of such factories built or planned up to nearly 50 over a period of some five years. The fact that they are very quickly occupied once they are built is proof that this pro- gram is doing a great deal to bring new employment opportun- ities into the depressed areas of the country. Chrysler Firm Buys Rootes Motors in U.K. © LONDON (CP) -- Squeals of rage were heard here when American Chrysler Corportion bought one-third of the British fir. Rootes Motors Limited. Critics rose again to demand the Conservative government prevent United States' en- eroachment in, Britain. They painted threatening pictures of. Britons eating American break- . fast cereals, drinking American soft drinks and using American gasoline in their American cars. More realistic commentators on the Chrysler'- Rootes deal note that Americans douse their hamburgers in British sauces, drink British liquor and even go so far as to put British gaso- line in their British cars. When the shouting died down and figures were spread on tables, it seemeq American in- vestment in Britain was not as dangerous as had been insisted, In fact, one economist argued that more foreign investment would be a good idea, "American-owned firms have been the biggest single force against the technical backward- ness and unprofessional tribal management . . in parts of British industry," says Samuel Brittan, economic editor of the weekly Observer. PERFORM BETTER He says the average Ameri- can firm performs better than its British rival, has a higher productivity rate and returns more on its capital. Direct British investment in the United States stands at BY-GONE DAYS July 9, 1034 30 YEARS AGO Rev, Dr. Edwin Smith preach. ed his first sermon at his new pastorate at Albert Street United Church, Jarrett, chairman of the Oshawa Community Children's Supervised Play- grounds Association, appointed Clifford James to the position of director of playground activ- ities. Rev. S. C C. H. Tuck, optometrist, at- tended the 37th annual conven- tion of the American Optométric Association held in the Royal York Hotel, Toronto, It was the first time the convention had been held outside the United States. The Ontario Regiment, under the command of Lt.-Col. R. B. Smith, VD, held a parade led by the Regimental Band direct- ed by Bandmaster Thomas Dempsey and the newly-form- ed Bugle Band, to Alexandra Park, where the former. band presented a fine concert. City Council passed a bylaw-to hold a sale of vacant lands for tax arrears. The senior honors for the field day held by the Canadian Girls in Training, who were at their summer camp at Kedron, were carried off by Evelyn Evans, Rita Perron and Jean Coyne. Joyce Babcock, Jean Brooks and Isabel Goyne had most points in the junior section. The circulation of books in the Oshawa Public Library was 9,557 in May, while June the total was 10,163 Sixty Oshawa boys went to Kiwanis Camp at Kedron, for the opening of the camp season. Mrs. F, W. Cowan presented a new flag to the Rotary Red Cross Cottage at Lakeview Park. M. Melntyre Hood was ap- pointed general chairman for the Field Day. and Garden Party held by the Oshawa Branch of the Canadian Legio.and mem- bers of the Ladies' Auxiliary at Alexandra Park. Charles J. Wilcox was named assistant chairman; W.¢Reed, secretary and Arthur Gladman, treasurer. Dr. W. J. Langmaid succeeded Cecil F. Cannon as president of the Oshawa Rotary Club for the 1934-35 Rotary year, about $2,721,000,000 compared with the' $4,197,000,000 that American firms have invested here. But British indirect in- vestment in the United States --in government buildings, in- vestment trusts, pension funds' and such--is much higher than is American investment here. Of course, the population of the United States is more than three times that of Britain. But even considering that, Brittan says the amount of American investment in Britain is far from perilously high. The overseas money accounts for about one - fiftieth of the British labor force. Foreign in- vestors, mostly American, own nearly two-thirds of Canada's large-scale industry; and that country seems {(o be doing quite well, thank you, says Brittan. Writing in The Evening Stand- ' ard, business editor William Davis says although American dollars were originally wel- comed, outgoing dividends to American shareholders are "a constant and steadily growing source of possible strain on our reserves." Why is there opposition to American investment in Brit- ain? Why does a Chrysler- Rootes deal make front-page headlines when a decision by a British-owned firm to invest an equal amount of money in the United States gets merely a paragraph in a technical jour- nal? THREE REASONS There seem to be thiee major reasons, One is a distrust of Ameri- can business practices. Al- though there is practically no evidence to support this view, some people feel Americans OTTAWA REPORT may promise to protect British interests and then may turn around and do whatever will gain more dividends for their shareholders back home, -- Davis asks rhetorically: "More and more of our indust- ect Fh wget life is passing into and control of hutan tates tions whose interests at timer are bound to be different from '™ ours, What happens when' they are? : : "Will Britain's economic path be chosen by our elected sentatives or will the govern ment find itself thwarted by U.S. tycoons?" Another reason for criticism of the extent of American in- vestment here probably lies in the imminence of a British gen- eral election. The Labor 0; sition says the Conservative government can do no right and the Rootes-Chrysler deal is as handy a whip as any for flaying the Tories, Finally, many Britons still look back wistfully to the days when Britain and not the U.S., ruled the West. American in- vestment in Britain is viewed 'y some here as neo-colonial- ism and staunch British Em- pire-lovers dislike the thought of American masters. PARAGRAPHICAL WISDOM The only way to have a wife who never complains she has nothing to wear is to marry a nudist, The reason grass seems greener on the other side of the fence is that distance lends en- chantment to the view. Even a casual observer sees a lot of drips in bucket seats. Mackay Candidate For High Office By PATRICK NICHULSON OTTAWA -- Governor - Gen- eral Georges Philias Vanier will complete his five-year appoint- ment as the titular head of our government on Sept. 15. He has won admiration everywhere by his dignity and his dedication to his country. It is. unusual for a governor- general to have his term ex- tended; only three have com- pleted a sixth year in office. So in view of his health as well as precedent, it is likely that within a month we may hear of the appointment of-his suc- cessor, Canada's 20th governor- general, Who? Almost certainly, he will be © an English-speaking native-born Canadian. Strangely enough there has been almost no speculation in the. press upon this appoint- ment. Around Parliament Hill one has heard the suggestion that Hon. George Drew, until recently the popular and suc- cessful Canadian high commis- sioner in Britain, would be ef- fective and well-regarded as our governor-general. Other names sometimes mentioned are Bruce Matthews, son of a. former lieutenant-governor of Ontario; and. General George Pearkes, now lieutenant - governor of B.c.; and his _ predecessor, Frank Ross. POLITICIANS TABOO? Ideally the governor - general should be above politics. This might tend to rule out George Drew, who was premier of. On- tario and later leader of the Conservative party in the fed- eral parliament; it might equally rule out ex - defence minister Pearkes, or Mr. Mat- thews who has been an active backstage worker for the Lib- eral party. But, at least, in the case of Mr. Drew it could be argued that six years in a dip- lomatic post have disinfected him politically. Another name which is men- tioned with immense approval as a possible governor-general is that of the former lieutenant governor of Ontario, Hon, J. Keiller Mackay. This distin- guished Scottish-Canadian has passed 35 years in an outstand- ing career in the law. Born in Pictou, N.S., he was first called to the bar in his native prov- ince. Then he joined the On- tario Bar where he was hon- ored by appointment as King's Counsel. Shortly thereafter his success and respect led to his appointment as a judge of the Supreme Court of Ontario. Then through 1958 to 1962, inclusive, he served in the high office as lieutenant-governor of Ontario. HONORED VETERAN Keiller Mackay is well known to veterans in all parts of Can- ada, Enlisting as a gunner in 1914, he ended that war as a lieutenant-colonel, having won the D.S.0., three "Mentions in Despatches", and the fame of commanding a special artillery establishment in France known as 'the' Mackay Group." He was wounded twice. With that record he, of course, became Ontario president of the Legion. Keiller Mackay has a host of friends and many more admir- ers in all parts of Canada, as -was seen when he was warmly received in Windsor recen'ly, when appointed first ch Li of the new university there. At Queen's Park in Toronto, he was noted for the qualities and attributes needed in a warm, yet impressive perfor- mance of gubernational duties; and he is always noticed for the elegant figure he cuts when he honors his native prov- ince by appearing in Highland dress on appropriate occasions... His Highland heart is young and gay, and his attractive wife certainly is--thus nesuring that all Canadians who meet them on social occasions are charmed as well as honored. Of the names reviewed in private talk on Parliament Hill, Keiller Mackay must be re- garded as a distinguished can- didate for this high office. 'eo JORDAN WZ, im Makes a cool spirited Summer drink 3€
