2 THE OSHAWA TIMES, Tuesday, September 29, 1964 GOOD EVENING -- By JACK GEARIN -- PREMIER ROBARTS TO OPEN. COURTHOUSE Premier John Robarts will return to these parts tomor- row for an important occasion -- the official opening of the new Ontario County Courthouse and Administration building. It doesn't seem possible that the 110-year-old Courthouse is to be replaced, but history is to be made. Dignitaries will include Mr. Justice Gale, Chief Jus- tice of the Supreme Court of Ontario; Judge Willmott, Chier Justice of the County Courts of Ontario; and Judge Alex Hall of the - County Court of Ontario County; Warden Rus- sell Francis of Ontario County; Mayor Lyman Gif- ford of Oshawa; Dr. Mat- thew B. Dymond, Health Minister of Ontario (who / will introduce Mr. Robarts); and Albert V. Walker, MPP, Oshawa riding (who will thank Mr, Robarts). Some of the guests (such PRE R ROBARTS as =. -- the Chief Justices, municipal leaders, etc.,) will attend a reception later at the Parkwood estate of Col. R. §. McLaughlin -- there will also be a Civic Dinner in the Hotel Genosha co-sponsored by the City of Oshawa and Ontario County. Alderman Walter Branch will represent Mr. Gifford at the dinner. : There will also be a dedication of a memorial plaque (at the courthouse) to the dead of two world wars, with mem- bers of the Royal Canadian Legion participating. The Band of the Ontario Regiment will provide a Guard of Honor at the ceremony. COMPENSATION FOR THOSE WHO ASSIST POLICE? Richard E. Lovekin, the Newcastle lawyer who is man- aging editor of The Criminal Law Quarterly, has an interesting editorial in the August edition, 'Compensation For Victims of Crime." What he says, in effect, is that a citizen would be more likely to help a police constable in trouble if he knew. the eltizen would be compensated for any injury suffered by himself. Lovekin refers to a Toronto man fatally wounded recently efter a bank holdup when he borrowed a gun and pursued the bandit. Lovekin doesn't propose any cure-all remedy, but he sug- gests that one should be sought by writing, in part: "The enforcement of law and order is a public responsi- fblity, as we all know; surely those brave enough to accept this challenge should not die or suffer loss without recom- pense., .. . May we simply go on record as stating that we owe it to ourselves and our fellow-man to point out to those who may listen that here is a social problem which, in our opinion, deserves careful consideration, . . . It would appear that an affluent society would investigate the feasibility of some practical scheme for compensation. . . . I think the problem is more of a mechanical problem to see who is going to be paying, rather than whether it should be paid." PC EXECUTIVE TO MEET ON WEDNESDAY NOTES FROM THE HUSTING: There will be.a meeting of the excutive of the Oshawa Riding (Provincial) Progressive Conservative Association in the Hotel Genosha Wednesday night with President Ruth Bestwick in the chair. .. . Members of the Ontario Riding (Federal) Liberal Association are busy these days with their Public Opinion Poll, which deals with such questions as a National Health Plan, Immigration and the controversial flag {ssue. Perhaps the Liberals are doing the right thing by rounding out the opinions of those at the grass roots level, but the results of such polls must be regarded with strong reservations when appraising the over-all picture. EX-TIMES STAFFER IS BRITISH CANDIDATE Did you notice in the public prints, dear reader, that a former member of the Editorial staff of The Oshawa Times is & candidate in the October 15 British election? Nell Jamieson, 34-year-old son of the late Ralph J. Jamie- son (managing director of Munrospun Ltd., an Edinburgh textile firm), worked here as a police and general assign- ment reporter for four months on his arrival from overseas in 1954. He will run as a Conservative in highly-marginal Liver- poo] Edgehill. Jamieson also worked with the Northern Daily News (as head of the Noranda-Rouyn bureau). He later be- came editor of the Rouyn-Noranda Press, a weekly news- paper, for four years before he returned to Scotland on the death of his father. .DE HART IS ALDERMANIC CANDIDATE President John DeHart of the Lake Vista Ratepayers' Association doesn't believe that a new candidate for munici- pal office should keep his intentions secret. too long. : So he announced his entry into the fold as an aldermanic candidate at a meeting of the LVRA Sunday night, This will be his first fling as a candidate for public of- fice, By announcing his entry at this time, when interest in the election is dragging, Mr, DeHart will reap far more pub- licity than would be the case had he waited until the home- stretch of the campaign had started (when several newcomers will enter the race). Some worthwhile Candi- dates, but not all, are de- feated because they are not well enough known. It seems unfair, but the present muni- cipal election system affords little opportunity for a new candidate to get out and make himself known. Out- side of such programs as The Jaycees' all-important Town Hall Forum and the municipal political forum oc- casionally sponsored by the Oshawa and District Labor Council, there is little oppor- tunity for the average new candidate to make himself known. Mr. DeHart was the guid- JOHN DeHART ing light in the organization of the Lake Vista Ratepayers Association in 1962 and he has provided strong leadership since. He must hold some kind of record for attendance at open meetings of City Council where he faithfully presents the case for his district, (sometimes to the annoyance of certain aldermen who feel that Mr. DeHart shows up as a spokesman far too often), Whether these are traits that will assure his election, Mr. De- Hart has convinced one and all of one thing --.he deeply cares about. what goes on at City Hall. That may not alone qualify him for the high office which he seeks, but, in an age of political apathy, it will undoubtedly endear him to many voters. _ & TORRE ig FROSH QUEEN _--~C Hamilton Tiger-Cats president and generai manager Jake Gaudaur is a nursing science freshman.

Hamilton 42 Sayer ath ei ie tl ih ith iit abt dis Economy Pause In By.DON HANRIGHT OTTAW A(CP) -- Canada's economic expansion paused in the second quarter of this year. Demand slipped and so did real production, There was a build. up of inventories. Non-farm output of all goods and services was estimated to- day by the bureau of statistics to be running at an annual rate of $44,420,000,000 in the second quarter, up about one-half of one per cent from the first quarter. However, prices rose a full one per cent. Thus the real physical volume of non-farm production actually declined in the second quarter, the first drop since the prolonged eco- nomic ex pansion started in early 1961. With farm production counted, gross national product in the second quarter was estimated at $46,000,000,000, up one per cent from the first quarter-- matching. the price increase-- and up nearly seven per cent from the 1963 level. Finance Minister Gordon re- cently forecast a total 1964 in- crease in GNP of eight per cent, or six per cent after price rises. He expects only a mod- erate gain in the third quarter with another rise in the fourth. INCREASE DUE TO TAX The bureau said most of the quarter - to - quarter price in-| crease was due to the increase effective April 1, start of the second quarter, in the federal sales tax on building materials and production ma ry and equipment. The tax rose on that date to eight per cent from four. It is scheduled to rise again to the full 11 per cent next Jan. 1. The bureau said the price of the machinery and equipment went up by two per cent be- pegs Takes Climb tween quarters, and so did resi- dential construction prices, The price'of consumer services and food rose by about one-half of! one per cent in the period. | With domestic demand off; slightly in the second quarter, | mean a -1.1-per-cent increase in total spending during the quar- ter. first-quarter levei, increases in the preceding three quarters, Spending on durable goods dopped four per cent, including a six-per-cent decline in purchases of new and used cars. Capital spending was at an annual rate of $8,324,000,000, about seven per cent below the first quarter. Non - residential construction rose about three per cent, but housing outlays fell about 25 per cent from the record first-quarter level. Meanwhile, business added to its stocks at an increasing of 1960. New manufacturing or- ders also declined, the first drop since mid-1960. Labor income rose by one per cent. above the first-quarter level, reaching an annual rate of $23,000,000,000. But it was the smallest quarterly increase in the 'current expansion.

The official opening of the Lake Joseph Sum- mer Centre for the Blind on July 21, 1961 marked a memorable union of interest and efforts of the Lions of Ontario and the Cana- dian National Institute for the Blind. It was also an important landmark in CNIB's contin- uous drive to render comprehensive services to The Centre accommodates 100 blind vacation- ers at a time. This 182_acre-site provides a variety of activity for young and old. Shuffle- board, croquet and lawn bowling are popular skill testers in the extensive games area. The waterfront draws boatmen, fishermen and swimmers; while a mile and a half of railed nature trail gives the blind stroller complete freedom of movement throughout the site. Walkways identify areas by their texture, while the babbling brook is very distinct in the man-made and natural sound aids which help vacationers find their way about. Crafts are taught in and out-of-doors adjacent to a tuck shop which caters to appetites that sharpen prematurely. Full-course meals are served in an attractive dining room. Individual screened porches. augment the facilities of the spacious lounge centred between corri- dor-connected bedroom units. All this, and a carefully planned and. executed programme, make Lake Joseph a holiday must for the blind of Ontario. Where a blind vacationer cannot afford to pay his/her entire camp costs, these are underwritten by the Oshawa Advisory Board to the CNIB for the blind residents of the Oshawa area, GREATER OSHAWA COMMUNITY CHEST ROBERT J.
