2 THE OSHAWA TIMES, Thursdey, August 20, 1964 GOOD EVENING -- By JACK GEARIN -- ARCH FAIRPORT ATOMIC STORY SEEN "PREMATURE" 'Things will be hopping in the construction field out around Fairport Beach, Pickering Township soon. That's where Hydro-Electric Power Commission of On- tario is scheduled to start construction of a $226,000,000 two- unit nuclear power station. : The Fairport station's two units will each produce 500,- 000 kilowatts of electricity -- two more units can be added to bring total output to some 2,000,000 kilowatts, It will be one of the largest nuclear electric stations in the world. It will'be designed by Atom- Energy of Canada and Hydro to produce electricity for below four mills a kilowatt hour. Competitive power in Ontario from coal-burning electric stations costs about four mills, The Fairport announcement of Wednésday, August 12, Was expected, but not so : soon -- Albert V. Walker, ALSESS Y. WALKER, MPP, Oshawa riding, said this week that the announcement was '"'premature "'becaue of a "leak" out of Ottawa. "The Fairport atomic energy plant will be constructed, as schéduled, and no hitch or delay is anticipated, but some agreements between Hydro and Atomic Energy of Canada Ltd. affecting the project have yet to be signed,' said Mr. Walker. As an indication of the Ottawa "leak", Chairman Ross Strike, QC, of Ontario Hydro told this department August 11 that no official decision had been made on the Fairport Beach site, but that one could be expected within the next 13. months. Premier John Robarts and Mr. Strike were to hold a press conference today at Queen's Park to "clarify" the Fairport Beach project further. Mr. Walker also stressed that more than 1,000 Ontario municipalities had been considered for the $226,000,000 yroj- ect. HEPC will put up some $120,000,000, the Federal govern- ment about $79,500,000 and the Provincial government around $66,500,000 at Fairport. DOUGLAS POINT PLANT SIMILAR PROJECT We recently visited Ontario's Hydro's' $81,500,000 nuclear power station at Douglas Point on a 2,300-acre site on the shore of Lake Huron, midway between Port Elgin and Kincar- dine. The Fairport station will be similar in design to that at Douglas Point project which will use natural uranium as a fuel when completed -- the CAMDU (Canadian Deuterium Uranium) reactor will be moderated and cooled by heavy water. The Douglas Point plant was designed by Atomic Energy of Canada, who will own it; Ontario Hydro provided the site and {s acting as construction agent for AECL on the plant which will be operated for AECL by Hydro with a taff of 00. Douglas Point will be Canada's first full-scale nuclear- @ectric generating station, but a smaller prototype plant is now producing nuclear power near Ralphton, Ont., 140 miles northwest of Ottawa, It was built by AECL, Canadian Gen- ¢éral Plectric, and Ontario Hydro as a prototype for the larger Douglas Point project. The NDP reactor went critical and began producing heat April 11, 1962. After two months 'of tests; Canada's first nuclear-electric power was produced and delivered to the Ontario Hydro system June 4, an his- toric date, as Hydro says, in this country's efforts to harness the atom for peaceful purposes, The: Douglas Point project, using a CANDU reactor, is being built by AECL with the co-operation of Hydro -- the latter ig acting as construction agent for the Crown company and will operate the plant. Once it has proven suitable for operation within the Southern Ontario power system, Hydro will purchase the station -- it will obtain nuclear electricity from the Douglas Point plant at a cost competitive with mod- ern coal-fired station of similar size. LIBERAL LEADERSHIP CANDIDATES DUE THIS WAY NOTES FROM THE HUSTINGS: Ontario County Liberals simply won't be outdone by their PC counterparts. Remember the Starr-Dymond-Walker picnic of last Satur- day with such stellar attractions as John Diefenbaker and a 600-pound steer for barbecue? ' = The Grits are making some elaborate plans for their so- called jamboree Saturday, September 12, at the farm of Sam Hollingsworth, RR 1, Ashburn -- not only will guests be served a chicken supper (at $1-.50 per person), but the special platform guests will be the six candi- dates in the Provincial var- ty's leadership race, each of whom will be heard. The event will be held two days after the Provincial by-election in Toronto-Riv- erdale, where the controver- sial Charles Templeton will endeavor to lead the party to victory in a riding that ANDREW THOMPSON hasn't seen' a Liberal triumph in 27 years. Robert Nixon, son of the late Harry Nixon, will also be on hand with Andrew E, Thompson, MPP, Toronto-Dovercourt (each of whom spoke at the Hotel Genosha last year); Mayor Eddie Sergeant of Owen Sound; Joseph M. Gould, MP, Toron- to-Bracondale arid Joseph Greene, MP, Renfrew South, dub- bed by one editorial writer as "'a combination of Abraham Lincoln and 'Mitch' Hepburn." BOARD RACE MAY DRAW SOME "BIG NAMES" The Board of Education race in next December's muni- cipal election could be one of the closest ever, if some of those "big names" decide to trow their hats in the ring. For instance, former. Mayor Christine Thomas this week would not rile out the possibility that she may be a trustee-candi- date ('I should be able to decide, one way or another, in the early Fall," she said.) Questioned this week as to whe- ther he would enter the Board race, former chairman Robert Stroud said: "I haven't made up my mind yet as to what I should do." COL. R. 5. McLAUGHLIN 93 SEPTEMBER 8 "Colonel R; &. McLaughlin is scheduled to return home next weekend from a seven-day visit to his fishing camp at Camp Capchap in the Gaspe area of Quebec. He will observe his 93rd, birthday, incidentally next September 8. "Colonel Sam" still visits his office in the GM building on William street for several hours daily. He retires around 10:30 o.m. and is called about 8 a.m. His birthday celebration will be a. quiet affair, highlighted by dinner with members of his immediate . ial ' Canadian Press Staff Writer Organized American ablor at the top, at least, is more deeply committed than ever to the Democratic party as the Nov, 3 U.S. presidential election ap- proaches. But there is evidence that factors including the Civil Rights Act and Negro riots in the north confront the 13,500,- 000-member AFL-CIO with the possibility of the leader ship pointing one way politically while fewer rank - and - filers than usual follow. Just how many fewer there will 'be re- mains uncertain. This is a situation that the Canadian Labor Congress has experienced in endorsing the New Democratic Party. Its 1,050,000 affiliated members have not kicked in with as much ballot - box endorsement as had been hoped originally. President George Meany of the AFL-CIO firmly underlined his stand for President Johnson against Republican Senator Goldwater when he spoke Tues- day to the Democratic party's election platform committee. Its conclusions will be put to the) Democratic nominating conven- tion at Atlantic City next week. "T regret to say that we can find very. little evidence of our efforts in the Republican plat- form as written," said Meany, who also spoke to the Repub- lican platform drafters, "I fur- ther regret that we can find few specifics with regard to that party's policies anywhere) in that platform," | WANTS MORE DONE But Meany pointedly did not) share the enthusiasm voiced| Tuesday by administration spokesmen who spoke glowingly of economic progress under the! Democrats. | Meany said chronic unem- ployment is certain un'ess mas-| Labor's Democratic Line Seen Split By Race Riots riculutre and other private profit - making enterprises that normally have injected the buik; of new jobs into the economy, Meany said nothing about worker reaction in the indus- trial north to the Civil Rights Act or to Negro riots, These as traced by polls and other por- tents have produced perceptible reductions in support for Pres- ident Johnson and gains for Goldwater although the Repub- lican presidential candidate still shows as trailing well back. Anger at the Negro riots has been reported particularly strong in Polish and other eth- nic working sections normally Democratic. There is ample evidence too that while northern industrial workers have no spe- cial objection to sharing the production line with Negroes, they adamantly oppose gener- ally sharing neighborhoods. Union membership compla- cency about further economic gains, at a time when the boom continues in the shape of higher personal income, may play some part in labor support for Goldwater, some suggest. SAYS RATE UNCHANGED Meany was explicit in warn-| ing that the unemployment rate| of about five per cent hasn't} changed really since 1958 and that despite what he called the longest uninterrupted peace- time book. in at least a gener- ation, one-fifth of the population continues to live in poverty. He said the jobless rate among non-whites is nearly double the national rate, President David J. McDonald of the United Steelworkers went farther: "I venture to say that much of what has passed under the label of racial unrest in this country is basically a protest SEASON Nola Brown, 29, a suburban Toronto housewife who has won markmanship medals with her rifle, Wednesday was bound by court order to keep the peace for two years on a charge of possessing a dan- gerous weapon and discharg- ing a firearm in a_ public ASE OS ERE Be By DAVE McINTOSH _ OTTAWA (CP)--The 1st Bat- talion, Canadian Guards, a' Picton, Ont., has been. notified to get ready for possible duty with the United Nations force in Cyprus, informed sources said Wednesday. The ist Guards, the present standby unit for UN duty, would replace the 2nd Battalion, Royal 22nd Regiment, in Cyprus if the UN decides to maintain the force beyond Sept. 26, The |Van Doos' tour in Cyprus ends on that date. The Guards battalion at Pic- ton has been brought up to full strength by reinforcements from 2nd Guards at Camp Pet- awawa, and it is getting annual leaves cleaned up so that it will be ready to go if required, There was evident relief in the government Wednesday that Greece' and Turkey have re- placed units under NATO com- mand after withdrawing them for national purposes over_.the Qyprus issue. \ : External Affairs Minister Martin in the Commons denied in effect the suggestion of T. C. Douglas, New Democratic party leader, that Britain plans gradual withdrawal of its con- tingent from the UN force. SAME AS CANADA Guards At Ready | For Cyprus Stint - on shaping Canada's military forces to future needs of UN peacekeeping tasks, In a written submission to the Commons defence committee, the externa} affairs department said: "The white paper on defence announces a wide-sweeping re- organization of the Canadian armed forces, but no facet of the program is of any greater cance than the extent of the adaptation of Canada's mil- itary forces to the role she has assumed in assisting the world- wide security effort of the United Nations." The department's brief added: keeping activity now has moved beyond the stage of a practical necessity in the conduct of in- ternational affairs, and should be provided for as such. GREAT POWERS FAIL "The failure of the great pow- ers to agree on the enforcement arrangements. envisaged in the UN charter has: caused much of the onus for peacekeeping to de- volve upen the powers, ; "Canada is one of the relativ- - ely small number of countries" which are qualified and to undertake a variety" of roles in the service of the.
