Wilson, Publisher FRIDAY, OCTOBER 29, 1965 -- PAGE 4 Students Might Ponder First Things Some 700 students marched to the steps of the Ontario Legislature this week to press for universal accessi- bility to secondary education. They contended tuition fees represented a serious financial barrier and asked for substantial increases in govern- ment spending on education. From all reports the march was associate history professor who ac- an orderly one in Toronto. Yet an companied the students found it necessary to comment that "editor- ial writers tomorrow will say you're beatniks looking for a cause. The editorial commendation will be a lie." As was said of the lady in Shake- speare's "Hamlet", the students' mentor "doth protest too much", No one could say _ conscientious young people putting their case in what has become an orthodox man- ner are beatniks. What they should guard against is the accusation of "acting like beatniks". In Ottawa, for instance, a similar march was staged. There the stu- dents are reported to have sang song about free fees to the tune of "We Shall Overcome". Now, con- sidering the connotations of this song and the tragic circumstances in which it originated, this is a little much ! It would be well for the students to remember that many of those First Adage they are seeking to influence "came up the hard way". They worked for their higher education either schol- astically or by taking jobs to pro- vide for their tuition. While these people will appreciate the value of wider educational opportunities, they'll also be quick to recognize that even frequent protest marches still represent a much easier course than the scrimping and' struggling they experienced. Student hi-jinks at initiation time, between colleges, 'at football games are expected and can be en- tertaining. However the students will risk damaging their cause if they carry a similar spirit into this serious business of improving edu- cational opportunities, While the popular ideal of a wel- fare society might be free tuition to all who qualify, it can be seriously questioned if this is the proper starting point for the infusion of government largesse to education. Surely it is more important to as- sure adequate facilities and provi- sion for the best possible instruc- tion before the doors are thrown wide to all comers. Meanwhile, a campaign by stu- dents for a wider scope in scholar- ships for which they could work, as attention is focussed on the other pressing needs in education might receive a more responsible hearing, Unfinished Business One government promise which petered out when Parliament was dissolved on Sept. 8 was the 'free vote" that was to be taken on the issue of capital punishment. A close vote cutting across party lines had been expected, though a major- ity of the cabinet is believed to favor partial abolition of the death penal- ty, retaining it only for murders of policemen and prison guards. The issue has been shelved so far as the House of Commons is con- cerned, but the cabinet cannot evade its responsibility to decide whether the death sentences now pending She Oshawa Zimes: T. L.

At present 18 men and youths are waiting in jail "death rows" after being convicted of capital murder. Ten of them have execution dates falling during the campaign and ending three days before the Nov. 8 vote. Responsibility for reviewing every capital murder case in detail and recommending action to the cab- inet falls upon the Solicitor-General, The present Attorney-General, Mr. Pennell, is known to favor out« right abolition of the death penalty, But this is not in accord with the law as it stands and his responsibil- ity is to decide whether there are special circumstances to warrant commutation of the sentences of death already passed, and to so ad- vise his colleagues. In recent years, under both party governments, commutation to life imprisonment has been the general practice. But, as The Charlottetown Guardian states, we should have laws that can be followed consistent- ly. If the death penalty is so out of keeping with the times that govern- ments feel obliged to intervene as a matter of course in every case, then it should have no place in our sta- tutes, The sooner the new Parlia- ment, when it is summoned after the election, gets round to dealing with this matter the better. - Scottish pirate By PATRICK NICHOLSON OTTAWA -- The wits of a executed 264 years ago may now be fighting their last battle to protect the most mysterious treasure ever buried in fact or fiction. William, the son of a Scottish minister, Rev, Kidd, first went to sea as a boy in the 1660s, Later he settled in New York, but was commissioned to battle French privateers on the At- jlantic, and later to subdue pi- rates as far away as the Indian Ocean, The anti-pirate turned pirate himself, capturing many rich prizes of which the most lush was probably the Quedagh Merchant. For nearly two cen- turies, treasure hunters have sought his oak chests stuffed with bars of Spanish gold, pieces of eight and precious jewels, which are popularly be- lieved to have been buried in the money pit on tiny Oak Is- land in Nova scotia's Mahone Bay. The trial leading to the money pit started at London's Tyburn Tree, the notorious gallows near the Marble Arch where crimi- nals were hanged, Kidd was captured, and sentenced to death for piracy and murder, With the jeers of the London crowd ringing in his ears as the noose was placed around his neck, Captain Kidd begged for the King's pardon, In exchange for his life, he offered enough gold to make "a chain of solid gold, with links half an inch thick, long enough to. reach right around the City of Lon- don."' Nobody doubted the word of the grey - haired sailor, but the pardon was refused and his secret died with him. LOCATE GOLD Nearly a century later, the flood of Scottish immigrants to Nova Scotia spilled beyond the fertile mainland to the islands. Daniel McGinnis decided to homestead on one of the 365 pretty little islands in Mahone Bay, named by the Indians after the Mahonnes, the speedy rakish pirate ships which slipped into hiding among its many inlets and tree-covered isles. One day Daniel noticed that the stout lower branch of a large oak tree on his island had long previously been sawn off short, and hanging from its stump was a weather worn ship's pulley. The Indians' tales of pirates flashed through Dan- iel's mind, The pulley had been used to raise or lower heavy weights--perhaps pirates' treas- ure chests? A circular depres- sion in the ground beneath the ulley suggested that a hole had been dug there, So Daniel started to excavate, He bur- rowed 30 feet down into the heavy clay, but at every high tide his hole was flooded by sea water which mysteriously seeped in through underground channels, He was forced to give up his efforts, Over the next 170 years Oak Island lured many adventurers but defeated them all. A for- tune was poured into the money pit, but not one doubloon was extracted, although one treas- ure hunter set up a drill which brought up pieces of oak and flakes of gold. His measure- ments suggested that two lay- ers of gold - stuffed oak chests lay 100 feet beneath the ground, IGNORES. HOARD In the summer of 1947, I visited what may be the world's largest man - made gold mine, I talked to Oak Island's only inhabitants, St, Clair Hiltz and his wife and daughter, Mr, Hiltz told me that he had never lifted a shovelful of earth to try to get to that immense wealth, But he showed me the money pit, then looking like a disused mine shaft, with its sides partly shored up by heavy timber to a depth of 20 feet. Many diggers have moved the earth around, but still the sea filled the pit at high tide. "Do you play pirates on the beach?" I asked five-year-old Clara Hiltz. "No, I play with Muffkins," she replied, and pointed to a ginger kitten. The search went on, Through the years it even lured a syndi- cate of which the late President Roosevelt was a member, Only two months ago the six year hunt by a Hamilton steel worker ended when he and three com- panions were killed by gas in their pit 27 feet deep. But now a California geologist has moved in 100-ton earth-lift- ing machinery, Will he recover enough gold to enchain Lon- don? Dominican Revolution Started With Shot That SANTO DOMINGO (AP)--The first shot of a Dominican revo- lution was fired the night dic- tator Rafael Leonidas Trujillo was slain. four years ago, The last is still in the future. This is an evaluation of this stricken little country's situa- tion by some Dominicans who regard the April revolt merely a phase in the post - Trujillo struggle against despotic rule from the left or right. ; The nature of this conflict was exposed by the cold-blooded killing a week ago of Angel Severo Cabral, 56, a leading Conservative politician. Leftist extremists; against whom Ca- bral acted vigorously while in- terior minister three years ago, are believed responsible for his death. The. incident' was preceded and followed by a wave of vio- lence whose unrestricted range underlined. an. absence of. civil- ian authority. There is hardly any question that the life of the provisional government depends entirely on the presence of the inter-American peace force. Most foreign observers and many Dominicans agree that without armed forces of the Or- ganization of American States behind it, the government would be toppled in a battle for power between the Dominican military and still well-armed rebel par- tisans, The Cabral killing and the reaction it provoked dem- onstrated that civilians on both Killed Trujillo sides of the conflict are still mote than adequately armed, The far right claimis to have an armed "vigilante' corps of more than 500, Rebel leaders at one time claimed to have 12,000 armed partisans. The "army" they offered for integration in the regular armed forces num- bered Jess than 1,500. The weap- ons they turned over to the OAS amount to a trickle of what military authorities claim. the rebels took from armed arsen- als in April. A partial list made public by the armed forces sec- retariat showed 2,273 rifles and 30 light machine-guns missing. Somehow, leftist guerrillas in recent years never appeared to lack weapons, The deteriorating situation is believed the motive behind the government's decision to crack down on civilians illegally in possession of weapons, But ims plementing the law may be dif- ficult. Civilian authority has been abused in the Dominican Re- public. Law enforcement has be- come discredited, The Domini- cans' negative reaction to law enforcement, a product of 31 years of Trujillo repression, ap- pears to have swung over to the extreme of anarchy, particu- larly among the underprivileged classes.

' It isn't the key issue, but it's getting plenty of attention and deservedly so. The NDP's Oliver Hodges, the dignified and erudite Labor re- lations consultant from Winona, really started it. He wanted a bird's-eye-view of the riding. So he went aloft in a small plane with Dr. George Hill, NDP can- didate in Dufferin - Simcoe at the controls. The Liberals' Dr. Claude Vi- pond intends to give it more emphasis. He plans a west-east walk of 23 miles across the rid- ing tomorrow, regardless of the weather (regardless of whether Campaign Manager Ted Curl can keep up with him). Don't be surprised if the other two candidates -- PC "Mike" Starr and Independent Dr. Ed- ward Rundle -- come up with matching performances of some type so that there will be little doubt as to their physical prow- ess. In an age of bulging waist- lines and overweight, such political challenges can not be lightly cast aside.

One of the best methods of reaching such an important de- cision is by attendance at for- ums such as this. Here's a word for the wise: Don't let the forum's official label "Young Ontario Votes" scare you from attendance. The energetic and civic-mind- ed sponsors -- the St. Gregory's Young People's Club and the Qshawa Jaycees -- have had some second thoughts belatedly on this restrictive policy, how- ever meritorious, if the hour is late. The prime purpose now is to make public admission to the forum more open, so that there will be a more representative crowd in regards to age. Noth ing would sound the death knell of the forum quicker, relagte Attendance at such political pow-wows is one of the best ways to accurately assess the respective merits of the party standard-bearers, if not the only one, Principal George L. Roberts of MCVI will return to his old post of panel moderator, which he held during the 1963 Jaycee- St. Gregory's open forum for federal riding candidates. All four candidates have indi- cated their willingness to par- ticipate in tonight's forum, which alone is assurance enough that it should be a high- ly informative and entertaining evening.
