'Federal money is. needed here for water- front development." Automation can, and will be, a blessing with a plan, Mr. Hodges said. "But we don't even know our manpower resources," he said, Oliver Hodges, New Demo cratic Party candidate, held up a copy of the Dorion Report. "T"m sure the revelations in here shocked you all," he said. "This is one of the most shock- ing things that can happen in a democracy. One wonders why these things happen at all." CANDIDATES HAVE THEIR SAY AT JAYCEE FORUM Robert Thompson, leader ofi the Creditiste-discredited Social Credit party, is the only party leader capable of leading a gov- ernment at the present time. This is the considered opinion of Dr. James Edward Rundle, Independent candidate in the Nov. 8 federal election. Last night .at the Jaycees' political forum in Hotel Gen- osha, Dr. Rundle repeated his assertion that this is an "'oppor- advocating such & study. He said education should be free "for all with the minds to absorb it." PC, Grit Rooms Hit By Pickets Pickets paraded in front of the committee rooms on Mon- day of the Liberal and Pro- gressive Conservative candi- dates in Oshawa asking for a fair deal for striking printers in Toronto. "How do you feel about the Toronto __ news; _. strike?" was the slogan carried on pla- cards by the four pickets, mem- bers of the Toronto Mailers Union No, 5. The local mem- bers are on strike in support of the Toronto Typographical Union, Local 91, which struck the three Toronto dailies July 9 last year. Mr. Hodges said Canada has been governed for 98 years by the old parties. 'CONSTANT QUARRELING' "They have lived together for so long, amid constant quarrel- ing. Promises. We have had lots of them. The Liberals promised Medicare in 1919. "Now there is an adult alter- native -- the NDP which gives performance instead of prom- ises. "Our platform is made by thousands of people meeting to- gether across the country, and| at provincial and federal ses- sions. It has a great, broad base," he said. Mr. Hodges said a federal) government should aid economic ' expansion by putting in serviced lots for new homes and bringing down the interest rate to three percent. He said Oshawa's harbor area should be developed for industry and recreation. "This city has a beach which | Medicare Hottest Issue Raised At Jaycee Forum most of the provinces are Sset- ting up their own plans? "Not most of the provinces," corrected Dr. Vipond. "Just a few. The federal government is anxious to participate. Portabil- ity across the country is impor- tant. Also, the same standards of coverage should be available " | Medicare was one of the hot- test topics debated by the four candidates in the November 8 federal election -- two of them médical practitioners. Dr. James Edward Rundle, In- dependent candidate in Ontario Riding, called the Medicare views of fellow doctor-candidate Claude H. Vipond "radical and almost Communistic". Dr. Rundle said what is need- ed for a Medicare program is "maximum coverage with min- imal (that is, government) in- terference"'. Dr. Rundle said later in an in- terview he used the term "Com- munistic" because he feels Dr. Vipond (Liberal candidate here) "ig more interested in making political hay out of the Medicare issue and less interested in the position of doctors and the wel- fare of patients". Communism is not generally interested in individuals, Dr. Rundle said, adding: "His bro-| .nout Medicare chure (sent to all doctors here)) «y favor it," he said.

'A plan has been worked out and the federal government is prepared to help other provinces meet the demands of Medicare." In reply to another question, Dr. Vipond said Saskatchewan doctors didn't reject that prov- ince's Medicare plan "'holus- bolus". He said the Canadian Medical | Association didn't like "three or four things" but it is okay now.

Dr. Rundle predicted Mr. Pearson will step down only if his party wins a majority "'to avoid fragmentation of the party"'. HEAD OF UNIVERSITY "He has been offered a posi- tion as head of a university, and also one as a permanent repre- sentative to the United Na- tions," Dr. Rundle claimed in an interview later. In his 10-minute talk, Dr. Rundle predicted another minor- ity government would be return- ed "and this one the most shat- tered yet". He said that if most of the Independents running are elect- ed "they. will be the tail that wags the dog and the only way the country could be run other- wise would be by a Liberal-| Conservative coalition'. | Dr. Rundle agreed this would never happen. He said his aim in running as an Independent is to force a re- turn to the two-party system and stop politicking "which has as its main aim the party and not the people". | | Dr. Rundle, who filed his nomination papers Saturday "to} show my sincerity', said his| aim is not to split the Con-| servative vote in the Riding. "There has been little to) choose between the two major| parties in recent years," he lsaid. "Mr. Diefenbaker is excel- lent-as leader of the Opposition. "Mr. Pearson is a statesman, not a leader. He has been com- promising through many crises. This may be a good inter- national approach; it is not good here at home." Dr. Rundle said the Liberals can't take: credit for the present prosperity. "It is parallel to that in the United States. More credit is due the Diefendollar (92.5 cents to $1 American). "The Liberals look progress- | | DR. JAMES E.

"The Prime Minister retained Walter Gordon when his budget (subsequently revised) would have disgraced a Grade 13 stu- dent. "When (Guy) Favreau's in- tegrity was questioned, he was retained in the Cabinet. "And the scandals increase, side-stepped only by this oppor- tunistic election." Dr. Rundle said if elected he would support legislation which would restore democracy to the people and stop politicking for the party, and which would re- store individual rights. He said he would support leg- 1 lislation to decentralize federa' power and restore Canadian unity, He suggested municipal- provincial - federal conferences to obtain the latter. Dr. Rundle said we need leg- islation to keep Canada neutral in respect to armaments and said he would support United Nations policing. '"'to this extent'. "J would support legislation to prevent Canada from. becoming a U.S. satellite, to maintain our independence," he said. "And I would support any legislation to restore integrity to the federal government." Dr. Rundle said he would also back legislation which would minimize federal-provincial con- ditions of grants to municipal- ities to prevent them (the mu- nicipalities) from over-spending. "] would also support any leg- islation to adjust the following to the cost of living: old age pensions, disability pensions, baby bonuses, family allow- ances and students' allowances. "If these student allowances were extended to the university level (to graduation); this would encourage students to stay in school," he said. BARRIERS FALL MONTREAL (CP) Ideo- logical and political barriers be- tween Canada and Russia are slowly dissolving, Prof. John G.

Although there was no discus- sion on the tender motion when it was introduced, Ald. Shaw later in the meeting question- ed two accounts of $401 and $20 which were paid to General Printers. She asked if council had de- cided on any policy about buy- ing from strike-bound firms. Ald. Clifford Pilkey said coun- cil had not set a policy but "I m sure council will be asked in future to set a policy'. The, Oshawa and District La- bor Council at its last meeting agreed to ask council if it had a policy regarding purchases from strike-bound firms. Mayor Gifford said tenders are not called on any purchase un- der $1,000. He said most of the furniture in the tender last night was for the engineering department but that a desk for the clerk's department was also included because it was felt the city could get a better price by including it in a larg- er tender, seca site SM a OTS AS MN MICHAEL STARR «... the aged have been neglected" Honesty, Integrity Are The Issues, Says Starr Conservative Michael Starr|Department of Youth; NHA mor- said the issue now is honesty|agages for older homes. d integrity "The aged have been neglect- vas vole ed," Mr. Starr said.

Ikeya - Seki, a comet detected by two Japanese astron- omers Sept. 18, will make a hairpin loop around the sun in that period and scientists think one of two things could happen, Some think the comet -- which will be travelling at about 1,000,000 miles an hour by Wednesday night -- might collide with the sun and explode and others say it will swing past, perhaps breaking into several pieces from the gravitational force. If the comet, with its 10,000,000-mile-long tail, does survive it will head back in the direction from where it came toward the outer reaches of the solar system. For North American viewers it could be the brightest spectacle since the great comet of 1882, which broke into four pieces during its approach to the sun. There is a chance that local viewers will see the tail of the comet Wednesday night too as the sun goes down, but that depends on just how clear the skies are locally. At the time of the comet's closest approach to the sun it will appear about a fifth the size of the moon and be almost as bright. | | | Expense Account Breakdown Asked and earn $5,000 to $6,000 a year can't afford to paritcipate in conventions. He said he has attended only one convention in three years because he cannot afford to at- tend under the present setup. And he said Ald. John Brady, presently attending a week-long Fire Chiefs convention at Miami, has been on council about 10 years and has only at- tended a few conventions be- cause he couldn't afford to attend more. 'NEED POLICY' "Il'm not trying to vindicate Ald. Gay's account," said Ald. Pilkey. "It's about time council had a policy." Ald. Gay said during the meeting that he had sent a let- ter earlier in. the day to Frank Markson, city treasurer. He said after the meeting that he recommended in his letter that a policy on expenses be set. Three other aldermen also attended the housing conven- tion. Ald. Alice Reardon, who attended both days, did not stay overnight and had no travelling expense, submitted a $20 bill. Ald. Margaret Shaw, who at- tended both days, stayed over- night and drove Ald. Thomas, submitted a $49 expense bill. Ald. Thomas said after the meeting that she had not sub- mitted an expense bill but said it would be about $30 to $35, covering registration, hotel and out-of-pocket costs. Accounts, totalling $4,443,985, including Ald. Gays', were ap- proved for-'payment by council. | Ald. Cephas Gay was criti- \cized last night by Ald. Chris- tine Thomas for his expense account at a housing conven- jtion in Toronto last month. The brief, but lively discus- sion ended with members of council agreeing a policy on convention expenses should be set, Mayor Lyman Gifford said he has discussed the matter with the city treasurer and promised a policy by the first of next year. Ald. Thomas asked Ald. Gay to explain how he spent $75 at the convention. | Ald. Gay replied that the $75 was paid to him in advance and that he returned $35 because he was able to attend only one day of the two-day convention. | Ald. Thomas said Ald. Gay drove to and from the conven- tion with a city official and asked him to explain how he spent $40. 'NO DISCREPANCY' "There was a certain amount of miscellaneous expense," said Ald. Gay. '"'There was no dis- crepancy that I know of," He also said he had to pay for a breakfast and lunch and that by attending he had to forfeit a day's wages. Ald. Thomas said the conven- tion registration fee was $15 so if Ald. Gay had two meals they cost $25. "You went just a step too far,'. she said and suggested he return another $20. Ald.

Prepare For risis, Says Liberalism Has Wide '£0 Director _ Appeal, Says Vipond Liberal candidate Dr. Claude| H. Vipond said Liberal govern- ments over the past 65 years have produced great leaders and have made major contribu- tions to national unity. "Under Mr. Pearson, the forces which have tended to fragment the country have less- ened," he said at a Jaycee political forum. 'The threat of separatism has greatly abated. "The two Conservative ad- ministrations since 1930 have been disastrous, have lost us friends internationally. "Liberalism has a broad base, appeals to farmers, trade union- ists, senior citizens and ethnic groups. "Pfomises?

No Milk Hike A jont committee of council and public and separate school board members was approved last night by- city council. Ald. Richard Donald _intro- duced a motion to establish the committee so that 'mutual problems and interests may be continually under review." As proposed by Ald. Donald and approved by council, the joint committee will be com- posed of two members of coun- cil, two members of the board of education and one member of the separate school board. It will meet on a regular schedule. CHAIRMEN NAMED Mayor Lyman Gifford ap- pointed the chairmen of coun- cil's parks, property (Ald. Hay- ward Murdoch) and finance (Ald.

Generally, they thought a local increase might come some time early next year, but not before. Milk pricings here now range from 25 cents a quart of homog- enized milk to 17 cents for skim milk and 22 cents for butter- milk, all home-delivered. The boost by Dominion Dair- ies Ltd. will mean one change here -- in the price of sour cream sold by a Dominion Com- pany, Sani Seal Dairies Ltd., Toronto, But the rise in milk prices won't come into this area because the company does not have a licence to sell milk here, though it has sales rights the mayor appoint two alterna- tives was approved. E. A. Bassett, chairman of the board of education, said to- day his board would select two representatives at its next meeting. Separate school board members have not yet discussed the joint committee idea. Council and board of educa- tion members expressed inter- est in the joint committee at a meeting earlier this month. Ald. Donald originally suggested the committee at a planning board meeting last month. He said the committee could work to the henefit of everyone' and result in dollar savings. Ald.
