Wiison, Pubiisiier WEDNESDAY, NOVEMBER 3, 1965 -- PAGE 4 We Can't Relax Efforts To Reach Appeal Target The Community Chest campaign in Oshawa has passed the half-way mark, in Whitby it is getting nicely under way, yet the urgency for each of us who is able to contribute to give full, unstinting support is as great as ever. Despite the charges and counter- charges of the present political cam- paign, Canada today is a fortunate land, Times are good, Governments at all levels organize welfare and health programs, Yet in every com- munity there are children, men and women who are in serious trouble: through ill-health, sudden death, poor training or just bad luck, Gov- ernments cannot look after all their needs, nor take the positive action that is often needed after the basic requirement of survival has been as- sured, This is the point the Community Chest agencies must always enter the picture. These agencies per- form a vital function in meeting ur- gent human needs, Our society is too complicated for us to look after the needs of the less fortunate in- dividually. Those who need help most are rarely seen by those who can afford to give it. The organizers of the present ap- peals are fitted to oversee our responsibility. Representatives of thé voluntary agencies have submit- ted their budgets to careful scru- tiny, Administration costs have held to a minimum, the areas of need are carefully studied, priorities are as- signed, As the Canadian Congress of La- bor has underlined in its Commun- ity Chest statement the campaign merits support "as an alternative to a multiplicity of unco-ordinated, in- dividual finance campaigns", The president, Claude Jodoin; states "we have take this position be- cause we believe this is the logical method for people to contribute through an orderly plan which in. cludes a check of budgets and per- formance," He also noted that in the past trade 'union members have given strong financial support to the cam- paigns and held the hope that this record will not only be maintained but will be improved upon this year, Indications in Oshawa to date have been that his forecast is com- ing true, All facets of the commun- ity are again pulling together to prove conclusively we are aware we're our brother's keeper, It is like a tug-of-war however, we can't per- mit ourselves to ease up until we achieve our objective, If we do, it will be those who need our help who will suffer most.

LEADERS OF POLITICAL PARTIES II... Bs _.. PROGRESSIVE CONSERVATIVE A Series Of Comebacks For 'Dief The Chief' By DAVE McINTOSH OTTAWA (CP)--The age of 70 goems-e-tate-hour dn ie-te try a comeback, especially a politi- cal one. But John George Diefen- baker's life has been nothing but a series of comebacks, He was beaten in municipal politics. He was defeated twice in Saskatchewan provincial elec- tions. He lost twice in federal elections before making it to the Commons in 1940, He was whipped for the Con- servative party leadership be- fore winning that office in 1956, He astonished most political ex- perts by being elected prime minister of a minority govern- ment in 1957, won a stunning majority in 1958, saw himself reduced to minority govern- ment again In 1962, was de- wu feated by Liberal leader Pear- son in 1963 and has survived several attempts by his own party to unhorse him, Now Mr. Diefenbaker is back in the thick of it, trying to reach the prime minister's of- fice again, Whether or not he makes it the second time, his persever- ance in adversity stands as a political achievement. Mor e- over, he has churned up the Canadian political scene in the last decade as it has seldom been churned before, -- No voter ever has to ask: "Who's Diefenbaker?" SET FRESH PATTERN The tall, curly - haired lawyer made it to the top betause he never forgot that he came from the prairie sod, In fact, he is nc MRE LL, Economics In Maritimes Always Election Yardstick By DON ANGUS HALIFAX (CP)--The worth of a federal government is tra- ditionally measured by an eco- nomic yardstick in the Atlantic provinces, Thus, the Liberal administra- tion of Prime Minister Pearson is apparently being judged by what it has or has not done to increase the area's share of Ca- nadian affluence. The Liberals, who won 20 of the 33 Atlantic provinces seats in the 1963 election, are cam- paigning here for the Nov, 8 voting on their record of con- tribution to the region's eco- nomic growth with an over-all appeal for a majority govern- ment to preserve national unity, With the federal election cam- paign nearing its climax, the Progressive Conservatives have intensified their concentration on alleged Liberal mistakes and a comparison of John Diefen- baker's regional efforts while prime minister with those of Mr, Pearson, The Conservatives held the remaining 13 Atlantic seats at Parliament's dissolu- tion, Both parties claim the four provinces have received the best deals from their respective ad- ministrations in Ottawa -- the Liberals in the last 24% years and the Conservatives in the six years prior to 1963. Both are aware that in every election this century, the Maritimes have signalled the national voting trend in varying degrees. The region went Liberal in 1963, Conservative the three pre- vious elections and before 1957 it was a Liberal camp for 22 years, RIDING DOOMED The leaders of' the two old- line parties held key rallies YEARS AGO 25 YEARS AGO Novy, 3, 1940 A class of 22 nurses graduated at the Ontario Hospital at Whitby, Dr. D, R.

Harold Dainty, Oshawa's star pitcher of the Central Ontario Raseball League, accepted a position as manager of a bowl- ing club at Kingston, about a month apart in this port city, centre of the two-member Halifax riding, probably facing its last election before redistri- bution creates three single- member constituencies. Mr. Diefenbaker launched his campaign here Sept, 24 with a promise that the entire Atlantic region will be designated a spe- cial area for economic develop. ment. 'That is Conservative policy and it will be carried into effect,"' he said. He also assured his listeners that the Atlantic Development Board 'will have sufficient money to carry out its de- mands" and guaranteed special allowances for Nova Scotia and New. Brunswick universities, which have a high percentage of outside students, Mr, Pearson drew a crowd of 7,000 to the Halifax Forum Oct, 22, the biggest of the campaign to that date. He defended his decision to have the Supreme Court of Canada decide whether the provinces or the federal gov- ernment have jurisdiction over offshore mineral rights ~-- a thorny issue in the Atlantic Provinces. If the provinces are awarded the rights, then they will go un- challenged, the prime. minister said, If the federal government is awarded the rights, then it should work out a method of developing them with the prov- inces, possibly giving the prove inces control, Opposition Leader Diefen- baker had told his rally that Mr. Pearson was "passing the buck" by referring the offshore minerals. question to the Su- preme Court. Premiers Stanfield of Nova Scotia and Shaw of Prince Ed- ward Island, along with other Conservative spokesmen, have expressed concern over the fed- eral goyernment's attitude re- garding offshore mineral rights and say they are disappointed the whole Atlantic region has not been treated as a special development area, Mr, Stanfield, almost as prom- inent a figure in the Conservas tives' Nova Scotia campaign as Mr, Diefenbaker, says the Pear- son government is not prepared to increase adjustment grants to the. Atlantic provinces. And Mr. Shaw, who returned from a trip to Europe in late October, says Prince Edward Island has been "brushed off with a sort of per-capita allocation which really does not represent our needs at all," : Bott premiers. have greeted major Liberal announcements with reservations, Mr, Stanfield says a new $25,000,000 federal investment in Cape Breton coal mines must be accompanied by market quarantees, while Mr, Shaw insists a $148,000,000 New Brunswick-Prince Edward.

The world's fourth - largest country (3,287,000 square miles), it is rich in natural resources, has a fast-growing population of $0,000,000 and plenty of new in. dustries, It also has widespread pov- erty, an illiteracy rate esti- mated at about 50 per cent of the over-15 population, an un- setiied economic situation plagued by runaway inflation, and one of the most unpredict- able political climates in Latin America The political situation now is ~ firmly controtied by a rightist military group for which the president of Brazil, 65-year-old Humberto Castello Branco, is the spokesman Rranco, a former was chosen as April, 1964, general, president in after a revolution tossed out the leftist govern ment of wealthy landowner Joao Goulart But he lacks a congress, whore ers of Goulart when 'he was unable to gain backing for constitutional changes, he simply put them majority in many support. still sit And into effect as a presidential de- cree, Declaring "we need tranquil: lity for the nation's economic The officials may have their political rights suspended for 10 years, Many suspected of being Communists, leftists or extrem- ..» TRANQUILITY' SOUGHT Brazil They say Castello Branco is merely a puppet controlled by Brazil's strongest power group of the moment--a clique of top development," he abolished po- litical parties, gave himself the power to deciare a state of siege and rule by decree for up to 180 days, enlarged the su- preme court, gave military courts broad powers and pro- vided for indirect election of the president by Congress instead of by the people, The decree also limits debate on legislation originated by the president and forbids congress to amend presidential propo- sals when the amendment would mean increased public spending, The dramatic move by Cass tello Branco wasn't the first in his 18 months in office. In his first year the govern- ment passed 200 new laws and constitutional amendments tidy- ing up the banking and income tax laws and instituting agrar- ian reforms, He cut the national budget by 30 per cent and took Stringent measures to halt in- flation Under the Institutional Act of 1964 he gave the commanders of the three armed forces the right to depose any elected. of- ficial in the country, including legislators. ists had this penalty imposed on them after the revolution when the new government purged all civic and state gov- ernments, The Castello Brancogovern- ment is heavily backed by the United States which has poured millions into the country in the last four years under the Alli- ance for Prégress Latin aid pro- gram, ; Washington is motivated by the fear that unless inflation can be licked and economic and so- cial conditions improved quickly, Brazil might be ripe for. a Cuban-type Communist take- over, MANY OPPOSE But many of Brazil's intellec- tuals oppose the government be- cause of measures that. restrict political freedom, It is said some of these in- tellectuals are "armchair Com- munists" who like to make a loud noise but who wouldn't want to risk landing in jail for their opinions. Others, however, are serious liberals who believe social, political and- artistic treedom is being throttled, brass in the services who use anti-communism as their ex- cuse to run the country as they please, A presidential election is scheduled for the fall of 1966, The president has said it will be a free and democratic vote and that he intends to retire from the presidency as the con- stitution requires, He has also insisted the vote would be by direct ballot but persistent rumors that he would movesto make it an_ indirect vote now have been confirmed, Some observers also feel the government will simply post- pone the election for another year or so, Several opposition candidates have already signified their ins tention to run for the presidency in 1966. Violent reaction could result if the election is post- poned. This could bode ill for the stability of the country, And, political observers say, stability is what Brazil needs more than anything else at this time if it hopes to realize its great future as an industwal na- tian, never so happy as when talking about the homestead, the dusty roads, the lantern hung out by ils father to show him the way home through a blizzard, Mr, Diefenbaker has the basic political knack of being able to convince the voters that he's one of them. Few rich men have ever been Mr. Diefen- baker's associates, He has fre- quently attacked big. business-- but not small businessmen. Thus he has been nothing like what one would normally expect of a Conservative leader. Social legislation was his main con- during his early years as prime minister. Mr. Diefenbaker seems to thrive on campaigns. He still wears out his personal staff, campaign managers and puffing reporters, He attributes his stamina to a careful diet which includes a lot of fresh fruit, milk and choosg,--Me-also-has--the- ability to catch 40 winks almost any- where. Once in the 1962 campaign his old Dakota plane pitched and yawed through a hailstorm near Edmonton, White-knuckled pas- sengers turned around to see how Mr, Diefenbaker, in the rear and therefore the most bucketing seat, was faring, He was fast asleep. He becomes furious with any- body who suggests his health might be deteriorating. "Do you want to go me a race?" he challenged a reporter in put the matter to him in Mr, Diefenbaker was born at Neustadt, Ont,, Sept, 18, 1895, but grew up in Saskatchewan where he began a law practice at Wakaw in 1920, He moved Inter-to-Prince Albert, still his home, He appeared nearly al- ways for the defence. He can hold listeners enthralled with anecdotes of those courtroom days. He was Saskatchewan Conser- vative leader from 1936 to 1940 when he entered the Commons, first for the now-obliterated rid- ing of Lake Centre and since 1953 for Prince Albert. On April 17, 1963, as he was about to turn over the govern- ment to the Liberals, he vowed he would wrest back the office of prime minister in about, he hoped, two years, His party regrouped, he has that opportunity when the coun- try votes Nov, 8.

With Prime Minister Pearson, of course, there always have been some points of basic. dis- agreement, Points such as the approach his government has taken to economic development in his depressed area program, The election campaign has not done much to add to these dif ferences, largely perhaps be- eause the Liberals have not been bringing out any major new policies. The campaign, however, in.a curious way may have added to whatever displeasure the gov- ernment here feels towards the Pearson administration: ' Curious because during the campaign Mr. Pearson has ap- parently been back-tracking on positions which the government here publicly wouldn't praise, or hasn't praised, but which privately it likes. One is the question of aid to university students, GIVES LOAN PLAN a During the 1963 campaign the prime minister promised 10,000 scholarships. Instead of the scholarships he produced his university loan plan, : Though it never came otit and said so publicly the govern> ment here became sold on the loan approach. It's own. think. ing has been in this direction. And then, with NDP pressure for free education and PC prom, ises of scholarships, Mr. Pear son apparently was forced. to the wall. And he came up once fests with his scholarship prom, se. The fear is that this may hold up the natural, and desire able, growth in the loan ap- proach, i Another such position, and this one is quite odd, is on medk care. Here, of course, the original plan, the Roberts plan, was closely tied to the private insur- ance companies. COMMITTED TO PUBLIC . Then the national plan was proposed, and its outline, as given at the federal - provincial conference in September, wag definitely committed to publid coverage, But then apparently there was another back-track. , Mr, Pearson was reported as having Said in the West that his plan would be flexible enough so that provinces could make their own arrangements, Presumably therefore private carriers, would be back in again. The government here should like this. But' there's a strong suspicion it doesn't. In its own program it had paid its service to the private insurance principle. There's how- ever, it was relieved when the national plan came along and moved it into the area, Now if the prime minister has back-tracked--and some of his people say he hasn't--then the government here will have. to sweat out the whole question - BIBLE Thou shalt not follow a multi. ~ tude to do-evil. -- Exodus 28:2.
