-- he Oshawa Times Published by Canadian 'Newspapers Limited 86 King St. E., Oshawa, Ontario nF, .L, Wilson, Publisher FRIDAY, JULY 2, 1965 -- PAGE 4 Conservatives Create Confusion Over Chief Members of the Progressive Con- servative party must surely rate the creation of confusion as one of their most potent. political weapons. They've employed it effectively to throw other parties off balance. At times they've left the public up in the air. And on occasion they even seem to catch themselves off base. It would appear they've usleash- ed a new barrage of confusion this week. The subject, of course, is the one which is becoming a perennial poser -- what leader will they fol- low? Mr. Gallup's pollsters have been on the job and have found the average voter in Canada wants Op- position Leader Diefenbaker to re- sign. The pollsters further claim "even among Tories more feel he should give up than that he should not". (The Gallup statistics are 48 per ecnt for him quitting and 45 per cent saying they're satisfied with "Dief as Chief"). The findings seemed fairly clear cut until the president of the party had his say, the same day the poll was made public. He announced that Mr. Diefenbaker would remain leader of the party for the next two years. In other words it seems like- ly the veteran campaigner may spearhead another federal election campaign, On the surface it's a bit of a con- undrum. On the day Mr. Gallup an- nounces six in ten Canadians would like Mr. Diefenbaker to resign, his party president says he'll remain in command for two more years. Two points of politics may be con- siderations. A hefty majority of Liberals (73 per ecnt) told the poll- sters Mr. Diefenbaker should quit. This could indicate to the Tories that the Liberals do not want to contest a campaign against him, Secondly, in their own survey, the Tories say they found much dis- -eontent in country with the present government, If there be a Tory power play based on any such thinking, the public confusion over Mr. Diefen- baker's future as leader is the least of our concerns, Undoubtedly, there is dissatisfaction in the country with many of the actions of the Lib- eral goyernment. However little in the record of the previous Diefen- baker government could lead Cana- dians to believe its return to office would be a preferable alternative. Mr. Diefenbaker is a colorful and controversial Canadian leader. He has brought worthwhile spark and style to the House of Commons, He is the greatest Leader of Her Maj- esty's Loyal Opposition our coun- try has seen. As he nears his 70th birthday, many Canadians will join in the hope he will choose to step out of the political arena and live on to en- joy the prestige he's earned as a Canadian elder statesman, Too Pat A Proposal A neatly-packaged solution to Canada's problems of bilingualism and biculturalism has been proposed by the Saskatoon Star-Phoenix. It contends our present localized and diversified history textbooks foment ethnic, racial, political and geographical antagonisms. The She Oshawn Times T. L, WILSON, Publisher R. C.

The proposal is too pat. What gov- ernment could be so completely without prejudice to choose the textbook? For that matter what author could be classed as so un- deniably unbiased that he could write one book encompassing the story of Canadian development. And if he did, what a tome it would be. The understanding so urgently required in Canada today can be fur- thered by more people writing books on Canadian history and more people reading them. From the sift- ing of many points of view emerges the truer assessment, Uniformity in history textbooks would dull the coloyfethstory on the country' and work a disservice to those studying it. GOOD EVENING SOTTO THN 'THINK WE COULD SPARE SOME INTELLECTUALS?' eis lana Napoleon's Coup Analysed: In 'Bayonets At St. Cloud' By DONALD PHILLIPSON Canadian Press Staff Writer Some coups d'etat may be dashing clear - cut "textbook manoeuvres" but the majority are not. Most seizures of power are confused and succeed or fail because of small details. The more common variety holds a special fascination for Major D. J. Goodspeed, the Ca- nadian historian. Major Goodspeed, who is at- tached to the historical section of army headquarters in Ot- tawa, is best known for his study of the coup, The Conspir- ators, published in 1962. Bayonets at St. Cloud (Mac- millan is a néw study on the same subject, specifically Nap- oleon's seizure of power in France in 1799 when he was 30 years old. After his expedition to Egypt had been trapped by the British navy, Napoleon was cut off ftir inmate YEARS AGO 20 YEARS AG@ July 2, 1949 F-L Kenneth Whittington, Gnr, J. L. Dart, Gnr, John Wilson, Sgnm. Don Heard and Pte, Steward Carroll were welcom- ed home after several years' service overseas. Rev. Dr. W. P. Fletcher preached the Communion ser- vice in Centre Street United Church, 50 years from the day he preached his first sermon in the same church (then the Christian Church). 85 YEARS AGO July 2, 1930 C.

When news ar- rived, it was that much of his conquests had been lost and that France's enemies were closing in. Staying in Egypt with rem- nants of a demoralized army would do him no good, so Nap- oleon slipped away, taking only a handful of senior officers back to France. He arrived in Paris Oct. 16 and by Nov. 9 had overthrown the bicameral republican gov- ernment in favor of a three- man consulate headed by him- self, The seizure of power was not particularly exciting. There was no particular occasion for it, other than a loss of public con- fidence and Napoleon's own am- bition, and it was carried out with hesitation. USED FEAR All Napoleon really did was let the civilian legislators frighten themselves into a tizzy, then evict them from the. coun- cil chamber after obtaining the resignations of three of the five directors. He was manhandled while making his only speech of the day and nearly collapsed be- fore his secretary hurried him out of the room, However, it worked, And if unexciting, it was significant. The republican government was replaced by a military dic- tatorship and the results kept Europe at war for most of the follawing 16 years, feeding the fire of Franco-German hostility which blazed for more than a century and twice devastated the Continent. Major Goodspeed does net preach, but moral ideas about the effects of power are ever- present in his books. He is one of the (now unfashionable) his- torians who believe we should learn from history. Napoleon's coup d'etat of 18th Brumaire (in the French Revo- lution's revised calendar) has few details to intrigue the thriller-fan, What. it does is in- dicate the effects of human frailty, inside and outside the law. By Jack Gearin Hold On! It's Still King Street, Not Mosport! It's only a mirage, boys. That's right. There is no excessive speed- ing these days on downtown King street (the hub of the downtown business sector re- cently converted into a one-way, eastbound traffic artery as part of Highway No, 2). Forget what you've heard or geen. Forget about the screech- ing brakes, what appears to be the needless hurry and scurry. Let's amend that a bit -- there isn't excessive speeding-if you accept the report of one of city's foremost traffic authori- ties, Sgt. Norman Smyth of the traffic division of city police who says: i--The average speed on downtown King street today is between 20-25 miles-per-hour (no wonder we flopped that last eye test). 2--Motorists appear to be go- ing faster in that area because it was two-way, geared for low speed until recently (Oh yah!) Well, why was a police radar car parked so long on King east on Ritson last Sunday afternoon? Was that officer checking the downtown air pol- lution count?) Not only has the downtown King maximum speed limit been flagrantly and constantly violated of late, there has ac- tually been "drag racing" at high noon It's so bad. that one group of downtown--King em- ployees want "danger pay" clauses in their next labor con- tract. With all due respect to Sgt. Smyth, we will continue to,. brace ourselves and prepare for a rapid, unexpected sprint, while crossing this key artery. One downtown merchant who wishes to remain anonymous is writing a book: 'How To Crosa Downtown King Street at High Noon and Keep Your Limbs In- tact.' It should be a_ best- seller. He wants George Martin to write the preface. Sgt. Smyth didn't give King street motorists a clean bill of health altogether, far from it. He admitted there were some "excessive" speeding incidents of late on the outmost limits of King street. He was mostly per- turbed about two other "serious aig numerous" offences, name- ly: 1--Too frequent changing of traffic lanes without due con- sideration of the surrounding circumstances, Alderman John Brady calls this "land hop- ping.") 2-Making improper turns into side street "Some of these motorists act as though they had never passed a driver's test,' said Sgt. Smyth.) There is no desire herein to throw cold water on the city's new one-way traffic system recommended in the Damas, Smith Traffic Report on the City of Oshawa, which cost more than $30,000, one-third of which was paid by which undoubtedly dreds of supporters. Both Sgt. Smyth and Mr. Brady, chair- man of Council's traffic safety committee, are pleased with it thus far. As an example, they point out that traffic moves much faster than hitherto at peak-load periods and that there have been no major tie- ups on Thursday or Friday eve- nings when the flow is heavy, when pandemonium and confu- sion frequently reigned in the past: the city) has hun- UNHAPPY MARRIAGE That three-year-old marriage between the Oshawa Harbor Commission and the Oshawa Industrial Commission has run into some rough weather. No divorce is imminent, but aldermanic feelings have been deeply hurt and some observ- ers around City Hall feel that the OHC is literally biting the hand that feeds it. It is one thing for the Crown- controlled OHC to be vague and aloof when the Press requests information. When the OHC uses such tac- fics on the five-man, City Council - appointed OIC Alder- men Cliff Pilkey, Richard Don- ald and Alex Shestowsky, plus Maurice Hart and Keith Ross) as it did last week, the situa- tion can be explosive Has not the OIC made gener- ous concessions to the OHC in these its infancy days, constant- ly leaned over backwards to give the union every chance of success? Not only did the Corporation of the City of Oshawa hand over more than 40 acres of its choice industrial haror area land to the OHC for administra- tion for possible re-sale with Council's permission), the OIC entered into an agreement with the OHC whereby the latter was able to engage the services of Industrial Commissioner. James Williams for six-month periods to-seek new harbor business What stirred up the present harbor tempest was an innocu- ous letter from the OIC to the OHC requesting the latest infor- mation on depth and dredgings a large business firm has sought information), The OHC in its brief reply, said that after dredging it would accept vessels which require 26 feet depth, But it asked the OHC to write Ottawa and try to hurry things along. The tone of the OHC letter sounded flippant, irked the OIC en-masse '"'The tone is bloody insulting," shouted Alderman Donald, the great champion of the City Manager form of gov- ernment) Quipped OIC mem- ber Maurice Hart: "We have a verbal contract with these peo- ple to publicize the harbor. How can you sell a package when you don't know what the pack- age is. We are trying to. heip them and they send us some- where else" HH tm FULTON GAINING FAVOR Bho subg anal When given the choice between Hon.

Market's growing nu- clear energy requirements, Euratom, set up in 1957 to co- ordinate and develop nucelar research and industry for peaceful purposes in France, West Germany, Italy, The Neth- erlands, Belgium and Luxem- bourg, estimates the six coun- tries will need some 275,000 tons of natural uranium between now and the year 2000. By that date it foresees a $60,000,000,000 (U.S.) investment in nuclear power plants to generate two- thirds of the Community's elec- tricity. Since the six countries possess only meagre uranium resources, Euratom's executive commis- sion and supply agency have begun scouting around for other sources of supply, A number of studies have been launched and contacts made with "third coun- tries,' notably Canada, South Africa and the United States. "From these contracts," says Euratom's eighth general re- port, "it appears that Canada has most to offer the Commu- nity in way of long-term supply, by reason of the important re- sources already brought to light in this country and of the pos- rr it offers for prospect- .." Euratom shares the view of the French government that it is in their best interests, if pos- sible, to own or have a degree of control in the mines produc- ing uranium, and in an earlier report it suggested that Europe could take advantage of the present' slump in the uranium market by acquiring interests in mines dormant in Canada. Also it is exathining the possibility of prospecting in Argentina and in African countries associated with the Common Market. Although Euratom's' report does not comment specifically on the bilateral negotiations be- tween Canada and France for a long-term uranium contract, it notes that France is conduct- ing "a systematic and continu- ous effort' to exploit her own national resources and to ac- quire her own supplies from Canada, the African continent and Madagascar. On the research side, Eura- tom says that co-operation with Canada, particularly in the heavy water moderated reactor research program at I[spra in Italy, has speeded progress, This type of reactor, using nat- ural uranium, is considered to hold considerable promise both technically and economically for Europe. The report also notes with interest Canada's work on the CANDU (Canadian Deuterium Uranium) project and the NPD2 (Nuclear Power Development) reactor.

In fact, it might go back in even greater strength than ft has now, and this is over- whelming. This is a question that well ean be pursued further at this point With the government having gone through two full sessions (and one three-day one), it is a 'good stage to take a look at it, And at the other parties in this house, which changed s0 strongly in the 1963 election, BE LICKED? The government couldn't be beaten today. Is it possible for it ever to be beaten in the fore- seeable future? As things stand now writer would say no. The question of whether it would be desirable to have it beaten, of course, is arguable-- mainly depending on your poli- tical stripe. From an independent view- point it could be worthwhile if it were defeated. Twenty-three years in power is a long time. And fat does ac- cumulate on any government in such a period, However the present admin- istration is giving apparently good government, and Premier Robarts is definitely aware of the danger of fat and has kept a close eye on the waistline of his administration, NO STRENGTH But the big reason one can't see any overthrow is not the record or approaches of the government, but on the quality the * rig , be can't As 0! y you.

" NDP BEST Of the two parties the ND would seem to have the. bes' chance, oe Internally at least, it is the way up, Today it is a better party than it was a year ago, It is more balanced, is " ing more maturity in that it is less much emotional, and ts more practical, It still suffers strongly from too much idealism. It still is too sectarian in that there are only blacks and whites; labor is all good and management is all bad. But it has bright men who do their homework and really can cut into the issues of the day. The Liberals? This is a strictly personal opinion. And it will be disputed by many peo- ple. But I would say the party is at its lowest point in a ling time. And for one reason, an old one. Most Liberals, practie- ally all, don't know what they are, why they are Liberals. Until they have some stronger reasons for being than just not liking Tories they can't get any- where, Sluggish' Behavior Of Market Likely Pattern For Summer By JOHN BELANGER Canadian Press Staff Writer The securities analysts were right. Many had predicted at the end of 1964 that stock markets would move lower about the middie of 1965 -- and sure enough, they did, Now many of these analysts are saying the market will con- tinue its sluggish behavior for at least the rest of the sum- mer, with some suggesting a turn-around may not occur un- til the end of the year. A break on the Toronto, Mont- real and Canadian stock ex- changes. started in late May, after many key stocks and ma- jor indexes used by the ex- change to measure price move- -- had risen to record lev- els. At first prices slid off slowly, but in June the losses gathered momentum and, despite a few days of scattered gains, pushed scores of high-priced issues to their lowest levels of the year. The 87-stock index that meas- ures the movements 'of indus- trial shares at Toronto found it- self. after six months near the level it had started 1965 at-- 165.91. The index had reached a high of 178.32 May 14. Many reasons have been ad- vanced by analysts to account for the decline, but a generally accepted feeling is that the mar- ket prices simply had climbed too high for the comfort of any investors. "There's been no sign of heavy selling or buying, and this shows that people now are wait- ing to see where the market will level off before starting to buy again," one said. International factors such a8 Viet Nam and pressures on the British pound and United States dollar also were blamed by some analysts -- although others suggested the market had time to discount these long before the price break started, A statement by William Me- Chesney Martin, chairman of the U.S, Federal Reserve Board, that he saw "disquieting simil- arities" between econo: on- ditions today and those of 1029 was blamed for triggering a big part of the slump, The remark apparently erys- tallized fears of many investors that the stock market was more" vulnerable than the rest of the economy, The decline started, as usual, in New York but it was picked up quickly in Tore onto and Montreal, Forecasts about the rest of the year are cautious. Generally analysts seem to ex- pect weak prices for the sum: mer, with a gradual firming te start in the fall. Barring unfore- seen political or economist events, however, they feel the over-all trend will be lower for a while. One brokerage house partner says he sees the recent price drop "as a technical correction only'? and he is '"'not too -con- cerned about the market's course." : "This is a reasonably strong market."
