The Oshawa Times Published by Canadian Newspapers Limites 86 King St. E., Oshawa, Ontario T. L. Wilson, Publisher FRIDAY, MAY 13, 1966 -- PAGE 4 Absence Of Red China From UN Holds Danger Prime Minister Lester Pearson has stated that the United Nations should include all countries so the organization can intervene, if neces- sary, anywhere in the world, He pointed out that UN intervention in Vietnam would not have much chance of success when China is not even a UN member. On several occasions in the past year, Mr. Pearson has raised the question of China in public address- es. Perhaps the time has come for a more definitive statement by the Prime Minister in the House of Commons on Canada's stand toward ' the Peking Government. In accordance with Mr. Pearson's view, Canada should be more active at the United Nations -- and in ' Washington "-- to promote China's admission to the United Nations. | In past years, Canada has voted consistently against this. For Canada to continue this vot- ing pattern is hypocritical, and be- littles the Canadian Government in the eyes of many other nations, If Ottawa's Prime Minister as well as its External Affairs Minister (Mr. Paul Martin also has hinted that China's absence hampers the United Nations) support a certain policy, why does its delegation in New York continue to oppose the entry of Peking? Even India, the country that con- siders China its most dangerous enemy, keeps voting for Peking's admission because the leaders in New Delhi feel that something of the mood of coexistence at the Unit- ed Nations may rub off on the Chi- hese, China's continued absence from global councils -- and particularly from the United Nations -- is dan- egrous. Of all the world's regions, Asia is the least represented at the United Nations. The people of China, Indonesia, the two Koreas and the two Vietnams -- whose combined populations total about 850,000,000 -- are absent from New York. This vast number of unrep- resented people exceeds the total populations of South and North America as well as Africa and Oce- ania. As a nation interested in world peace and progress, Canada should work and vote for China's admis- sion, What Of CIA.

Cie TET it is to be hoped that the discussion has to do with the operations of American intelligence agents in Canada. That they do operate here we know, but we do not know. whe- ther they opperate with the acquies- ence and full knowledge of the Ca- iadian government. Recently it was disclosed in the House of Commons that an F.B.I. agent had acted without any auth- orization whatever when he called on a Vancouver woman to make en- quiries about her son, whom the U.S. considers a draft dodger. This, surely, was a piece of impertinence which should be rebuked in the strongest terms. The Montreal newspaper' asks: Do C.I.A. agents operate in the same way? It is true that in secur- ity matters the U.S. and Canada co-operate. But is there a true rec- iprocity? Are R.C.M.P. men free to operate in the United States as C.I.A. and F.B.I. men appear to operate in Canada?, The C,1.A., more particularly, is under serious criticism in the Unit- ed States for operating as if it were a government within a government. The New York Times went the length the other day of expressing conern lest the C.I.A. subvert the American system of government. As The Star says no here that it may subvert ours, but slurely we must be vigilant to see that agents of other nations do not harass Canadian citizens with' im- punity. fear exists ~ OTTAWA REPORT MacEachen \ Held Likely Contender By PAT NICHOLSON OTTAWA -- The two rogue combatants of Parliament Hili are locked in the mortal combat which may end the political life of both. Meanwhile the hopeful successors to their crowns are keeping mute about their ambi tions. There is no open leadership race in grogress for either the Conservative or the Liberal party today. The Liberal aspirants include Paul Martin, Mitchell Sharp, Bob Winters, Paul Hellyer and Jean Lesage, strong in Quebec but proportionately unattrac- tive to nine other provinces. The Conservatives are even more in temporary eclipse. George Hees has calmed his ebullience. Davie Fulton has covered himself with nation- wide doubts. Manitoba's Pre- mier Duff Roblin increasingly fits a cynical Liberal's descrip- tion of Bob Thompson making like a scout leader: "Setting his stetson squarely shading his eyes, bracing his bare knees, and calling out 'come along, fellows, follow me into the for- est and we will search for news and triliums."' Nova Scotia's Premier Bob Stanfield daily looks better by comparison, and Ontario's John Robarts is show- ing strength and leadership sadly lacking on Parliament Hill. HOBSON'S CHOICE? Are there no dark horses in either party? The youth of trusts eveyone much as their elders dislike their immature revolt against tradition. But this cry is echoed in some political circles here, pvhich are looking for men able to lead in the 1960s, yet who won't be out of step with the 1970s. The combination of qual- ities sought for party leadership today are veering away from those previously valued; the persuasive tongue, the warm presence, even the willingness to serve, carry no premium with this new thinking. More Canada mis- over 30 as and more MPs and even sena- tors, and especially the back- room party managers, ere leok- ing for other qualities: Youth, strength of character, manager ial ability, intelligence, and the capacity fo weigh alternative policies with shrewdness rather than with partisanship. The Liberals may have just such a character, not noticeably in the parliamentary limelight but, for those who notice, obvi- ously in a position of trust and respect in the inner advisory circle of the party. This is the 44 - year - old coal-miner's son from Nova Scotia, Hon, Allan MacEachen, economist, univer- sity professor, and admired par- liamentarian 'since as long ago as 1953 when, shortly after his 32nd. birthday, he made his debut and quickly his mark in the House MAN TO WATCH With the clatter of the self- advertisement of the Sharps and Hellyers, and among the roaring. grind of the Liberal establishment planning for four years past to drag the unwilling Bob Winters back from the boardrooms to the hustings, the undoubted and self evident claims of "that young professor from Antigonish' have been overlooked. With the reserve of the true Scot--a profile | wrote for the Edinburgh Scotsman: prompted letters. from Scotland still claim- ing kinship--this Nova Scotia- born power-house of brains at- tends to today's job and makes no play for the future, His speeches across Canada, as [ have pointed out, contain at- tractive and novel ideas. His mastery of parliamentary pro- cedure and practice often guide his party and his leader back onto the tracks. As minister of Labor, and now on the un- equalled launching pad as min- ister of health and welfare, he has mastered important aspects of domestic policy, but as yet his experience of international affairs is limited to two "bit roles" at the United Nations.

Red - Ink Tourist Ledger May Limit U.S. Travellers By ARCH MacKENZIE WASHINGTON (CP) -- The United States balance-of-pay- ments problem would almost be finished if Americans spent less abroad The tourist-travel deficit this year 'may exceed last year's $1,800,000,000 Commerce Secre- tary John Connor said recently. The entire 1965 drain of U.S. gold and doiiars abroad in all accounts was less than that. The: persistent red-ink tourist ledger and special efforts to deal with it have resurrected speculation that the government may be contemplating further steps to discourage American travel abroad. This would hit the Canadian travel industry among others. But the dominant belief is that making it more expensive to travel abroad is too harsh a political measure in an election year. In. 1965, announcing steps to ease the dollar drain, President Johnson reduced the amount of duty free goods Americans could bring hack, So far, however, the emphasis now is on getting more foreign- ers, including Canadians, to visit the U.S. and getting more Americans to tour the U.S. Theme of the campaign is "Festival U.S.A. '66"' and both domestic tourists and those from abroad are being wooed with a heavy promotional qam- paign. In 1964, the U.S. became the first nation to earn $1,000,- 000,000 from forcign tourists and the total hit more than. $1,300,- 000,000 last year. But abroad. The U.S. last year entertained 7,637,000 foreigners, 6,050,000 of them Canadians, says the American Society of Travel Agents. On the other hand, 14,- 705,000 Ameri¢ans went abroad --11,000,000 to Canaaa. While Canada had more visi- tors, she collected only $600,000,- 000 from them while the U.S. reaped $1,360,000,000. Americans spent $3,600,000,000 abroad in- cluding Canada' and Canada scored an edge of about $100,- 000,000 on tourist trade between the two. But the big money went out- side Canada: by that reckoning. Within the U.S, it is estimated 116,342,000 Americans were on the move last year and spent something like $20,500,000,000. The big spenders were headed for Europe, apparently, Despite appeals in 1965 to Americans to see the U.S., the rate of pass- port issuances rose sharply. The same trend seems to be taking shape again this year as economic conditions continue to stimulate the wanderlust. POINTED PARAGRAPHS "It's extremely difficult to ged people to listen to reason these days," says a columnist. (He means his reason, of course.) It's extremely _ diffi- cult to get them to listen (period). Americans spend more 'ONCE MAN WHO DANCED WITH PRINCESS'... Young Minister Seeks Spurs In By BEN WARD OTTAWA (CP) -- For nearly eight years John Turner has been best known as 'the man who danced with Princess Mar- garet."' Now, as minister without portfolio in the federal cabinet, he's working hard to become known instead as the man who helps veteran Jack Pickersgill run the transport department, "1 wish people would forget that Princess Margaret epi- sode,"' he says with a shake of his head. "We had a couple of drinks and a few dances together. Some reporters built it up, and made a romance out of it. Why didn't they pick on one of the other fellows?" The "episode" was in 1958 at Vancouver during Princess Margaret's tour of Canada. Or- ganizers had arranged an in- formal party, inviting a group of young men and women to join the princess for cocktails and dancing. Within 24 hours John Turner, eg comparatively obscure Mont- real lawyer, had joined the ex- clusive list of world bachelors being talked about as prospec- tive husbands for the princess, then 28. ; One reason for the speculation z ... EXPERT ON SEAWAY PROBLEMS Transport is still fairly obvious. The tall, dark and handsome minister turns fe minine heads every time he walks down a corridor 'on Parliament Hill, TRANSPORT HIS FIELD As a secretary in a nearby office puts it: "Watching him is one of the fringe benefits in this place." Watching him lately has also been a bit difficult. He's been on the go continually with as- signments from Transport Min- ister Pickersgill, so much so that fellow MPs now refer to him as the associate transport minister. As the youngest member of the cabinet at 36, and the only one without a designated de- partment, Mr. Turner recalls that he was a bit apprehensive when Prime Minister Pearson promoted him to the cabinet in the December shakeup. "I figured I was due for all the Joe jobs," he said in an interview. Instead, Mr. Pickersgill won the prime minister's backing to have Mr. Turner take over ma- rine matters in the overland transport portfolio, particularly St. Lawrence Seaway problems. A few weeks ago the rookie minister was assigned to' pilot the transport department's sup plementary spending estimates through the. Commons and im- pressed observers with a de- tailed report on new proposals for shipping safety in the St. Lawrence River. FULL OF IDEAS Now he's deeply involved in a study of tighter regulalions on ship officers' licences, the fire safety situation in Montreal Harbor, improved navigation by radio, the future of seaway tolls, new channels for the lower St. Lawrence and a host of other issues. Sitting down to talk to him abouf Yfansport matters is a startli experience--some- thing like Narning on a switch you didn't know was connected to a buzz-saw. The ideas and opinions spill out with none of the evasion or reticence that most people ex- pect of politicians. His eyes sparkle with enthu- siasm while he discusses the pros and cons of a_ national transport board and a single policy for the whole transport field, or the future of naviga- tion by satellite. "The (satellite) future is really hard to helieye," he Says, in & yoicé so convincing that you don't find it hard at What is that just five years ago politics hard to believe is was John the farthest thing from Turner's mind. He can- didly admits that he wasn't even a Liberal party member until after attending Mr. Peare son's "thinkers' conference" at Kingston, Ont., in 1960 and the national Liberal conference in Ottawa the following year. UPSET CHAMBERS But just six months after taking out his card he was nom- inated Liberal candidate in the Montreal riding of St. Law- rence-St. George and in the 1962 election upset. Conservative Egan Chambers, then parlia- mentary secretary for defence. He's been unbeatable there since. When the Liberals came to power in 1963 he was named parliamentary secretary to Northern Affairs Minister Laing and did so well that his ap- pointment to the cabinet sur- prised no one except, perhaps, John Turner, He was born in England, son of a British newspaper man who died when John was three. His mother first brought him back to her own home at Ross- land, B.C., then came to Ottawa in 1934 as a research economist for the tariff board, WITH A YEAR "To Go "Te OPENING DAY EXPO INVITED "THE PuBLic To SEE HOW THINGS WERE PROGRESSING...

Samuel Clemens took his pen name "Mark Twain" from them, because the bowmen sounding the depths of the rivers used to call 'Mark one' or "Mark three" or whatever the case might be. Americans know all about the colorful boats on the Mississippi and other rivers, and wrote stories and music about them like 'Showboat'. Canada had colorful river boats too. Those on the prairies, like the "Northcote' that play- ed an important role in the Northwest rebellion, were al- most amphibious. They could haul themselves over sandbars when the rivers were low! : The mighty Saint John River in New Brunswick also had a number of famous vessels. One of the first was the 'General Smyth" put on the run between Saint John and Fredericton by John Ward, a United Empire Loyalist. He began the service on May 13, 1813, and had. an een exclusive steamship franchise for 10 years. An enterprising farmer, Wil- liam Peters, wanted to compete, but as John Ward has an ex- clusive steamship franchise, had to think of something different, He did! Peters built a paddle- wheeler 100 feet long with a large circular platform on the deck. In the centre of the plat- form was a capstan from which 12 bars. projected. Peters hitched a strong horse to each of the bars, and -shouted "giddy-up". The horses trotted around the platform turning the capstan, which was connecte¢c with the paddle-wheel, and away they went! That was a real 12 horse- power ship, Teésts went gvell, and the day came for the first trip with passengers. As the ship moved away from the shore a prankster shouted "whoa!" and the horses stopped. Peters got them going again, but then everyone got into the act, and kept shouting "whoa". The horses stopped every time. " f on | Fraternal Unity With USSR Base For Bulgaria Policy By JOHN BEST SOFIA (CP)--The corne- stone of Bulgaria's foreign policy, said Tador Zhivkoy, "is and will be friendship, fraternal unity and 'co-opera- tion with the Soviet Union." The prime minister and Communist party chief, speaking a few months ago, was articulating perhaps - the most important fact of Bul- garian national life--the coun- try's ties to Moscow, These ties seemingly have remained unshaken during the last 10 years of change &nd upheaval in Eastern Eu- rope. Other countries of the So- viet Union's one - time Iron Curtain empire may be look- ing for and finding ways to assert their independence from Moscow, but not Bul- garia. Tucked down under' Ro- mania, with the Black Sea at its doorstep, Bulgaria is a good 100 miles from the near- est. Soviet territory. Yet it acts as though it were di- rectly under the gun. While the Romanians, for Instance, have rejected Soviet proposals to integrate their economy with that of the U.S.S.R. and other Commu- nist - bloc states, Bulgaria has accepted with enthusi- asm. Speaking to the National Assembly in December, Zhiv- kov. said: "Bringing closer the Bul- garian national economy to the national economy of the Soviet Union leads toward ac- celerating the advance of our economy, for we count also on the economic, technological and scientific achievements of such a highly industrialized state as the Soviet Union." REMEMBER LIBERATORS Part of the explanation of Bulgaria's fealty to the U.S.S.R. is historic, having nothing to do with ideology. It was the Russian army that liberated Rulgaria from the Turks in 1877-78, paving the way for Bulgarian independ- ence a few years later. { The Bulgarian people don't forget that. One. of the prin- cipal monuments in this capi- tal city of wide thoroughfares and handsome vistas is dedi- cated to Czar Alexander II and the Russian soldiers who fought in the war against the Turks. Many. streets..in. Sofia, city of a little less than 1,000,- 000, bear the names of Rus- sian generals of the 19th cen- tury. Another part of the explana- tion is racial affinity. Bulgari- ans consider themselves the most racially pure of all Slavic peoples and say they speak the purest Slavic langu- age. They feel a strong kinship with the Russians, largest of the world's Slavic peoples, and take a certain pride in the fact that the Soviet Un- ion, a country peopled mostly by Slavs, has emerged as one of the most powerful nations in the world, The depth of Bulgarians' feelings may be gauged from the fact that the German-al- lied country did not declare war on the U.S.S.R. in the Second World War although it did on the Western Allies, WOULDN'T FIGHT The authorities knew the Bulgarians would refuse to fight the Russians, and not a single Bulgarian soldier was sent to the Soviet front al- though numbers were sent to Yugoslavia (also a_ Slavie country) and to Hungary. Western diplomats here, while acknowledging a na- tural comradeship between Bulgarians and Russians, sug- gest Bulgarian authorities sometimes exaggerate it. One envoy said the Russians are often the butt of jokes-by Bul-, garians who consider them- selves more sophisticated than their racial cousins. Bulgaria also goes down the line with Soviet foreign policy and sometimes goes. further than Moscow. Possibly no other place west' of China will you any tougher talk about Viet Nam than you hear in little Bulgaria. hear Peters: tried stuffing their ears with rags, but they wouldn't Stay in. Finally he had to take his ship to Grand Lake, beach it, and use it for a hotel. The plat- form on the deck turned out to be useful for dancing, with a fiddler providing the music. Another famous ship-on the Saint John River was the "Rein- deer" built by Benjamin Frank- lin Tibbits. After studying engin- eering in the U.S.A. he return- ed to Fredericton and designed the world's first compound steam engine. The "Reindeer"' beat every other ship on the river, and used only four cords of wood for fuel, compared with their ten. Other Events oti May 13: 1604 Champlain arrived at Port Mouton, N.S.

We are now to have a "con- sumer protection" program. That.is in a year's time we are to have a consumer protec: tion program, which will act- ually be the start on a con- sumer protection program. Three years ago a select com- mittee was appointed to study consumer credit. This time last year the com- mittee brought down its report. Now the government. has brought in legislation. One bill will set up a con- sumer protection bureau. A second wil] provide the bureau with law to enforce. The bureau will be set up right away, But the Consumer Protection Act won't be put through all stages of the 'house until the next session. CONSUMER "CREDIT" In this initial stage, at least, it is not quite correct to desig- nate the new program as "con- sumer protection," which it has been labelled. It is to protect consumers in the field of credit, and more ac- curately should be classed as consumer credit protection, The program provides that in- terest rates on time payment contracts shall be stated in both dollar and percentage terms, orders a two - day waiting pe- riod before contracts signed door-to-door are valid, and pro- poses other protections such as a vesting of the buyers interest in property bought on time. GOES SLOW An over-all consumer protec- tion program would cover frauds, standards of advertis- ing, and probably the cost of financing (In 35 U.S. states there is a ceiling on the finane- ing charges for automobiles, and in some cases of other goods). Some areas of government here now to touch on these other fields--the OPP for in- stance, has a fraud squad. And it is logical to expect that one day they will all be combined in the one government bureau. However this will not happen overnight. For it has not been the style of the present govern- ment, or its PC predecessors, @ do things overnight. You don't argue for or against this--or at least the writer doesn't; this is the job of the Opposition, There are many arguments in favor of a cautious approach. But this instance is one of the best examples we have had of just how cautious the approach 'of the present government act. ually is. In its defence -- if any is needed -- the people seem to agree with it. TODAY IN HISTORY By THE CANADIAN PRESS May 13, 1966... Jamestown, Va., the first permanent English settle. ment in North America, was founded 359 years ago today --in 1607 -- by Capt. Christopher Newport. It early years were not much of a success as the village was built on a swamp and was burned down by acci- dent in 1609. The colonists decided the following year to return to England but met an incoming ship with supplies and more settlers, and so decided to try egain. Indians, sickness and fam- ine killed off half the col- ony in the early 1620s, but there were 15,000 people in Virginia by 1648 and there was no turning back. Jamestown was the capital until 1699, after which date it declined. 1568--The English army beat the forces of Mary Queen of Scots at Langside. 1885--News of Riel's de- feat at Batoche reached Ot- tawa. First World War Vifly years ago today--in 1916 --Scottish regiments dispersed a German raid near Ploegstraet Wood; British Prime Minister H. H. Asquith visited Dublin, still in ruins from the Easter Rising.
