The Oshawa Times Published by Canadian Newspapers Limited 86 King St, E., Oshawa, Ontario T, L, Wilson, Publisher THURSDAY, NOVEMBER 10, 1966 --- PAGE 4 + ' Election Also On Agenda For Board Of Education The concern for education so prominent of late in federal and pro- vincial fields would seem lacking at the local level, at least in Oshawa with Nomination Day about a week away. While some candidates have in- dicated intention to contest council seats there's been little or no active ity on the Board of Education front Une Member Has ATTOUT tirement, another has entered the aldermanic race and a third has been mentioned as a candidate for council, Therefore, even if the present members decide to seek re- election there'll still be vacancies re- quiring new talent on the board, Interest in city hall as "the place where the action is" unfortunately tends to detract from the import- ance of the responsibilities under- CSG Hib TE- taken by board of education mem-, bers. Only at budget time when the something, like $5, million annually in expenditures overseen by school boards is emphasized does the du- ties of the boards attract particular public attention, An increasingly large portion of our tax dollar goes to education each year and now is the time to assess the value being received, The businesslike approach the present board has been taking to achool financing has already been noted in the community, It provides reason to encourage members of the present board to seek another term, Certainly more interest and encouragement for citizens to take ---- iy the adminictvatian af aduca. tion in Oshawa is necessary than is evident to date, In this era of advance and change in the educational system, an exhil- arating challenge must be presented to those directly associated with school work, At no time in the his- tory of the city or the country has there been greater concern over the needs of and the needs for higher education, It is to the parents of youngsters enrolled or who will soon be enter- ing the school system that the board of education elections should hold keen interest, However none in the community can afford to over- look that candidates are required for election to office in this extreme- ly important facet of civic govern- ment, the board of education, Sensible Rules Needed A brief proposing extensive changes in Canada's divorce laws was presented by Canadian Bar Association executive members at a recent meeting of the Parliament- 'ary divorce committee, A. Gordon Cooper of Halifax, CBA national vice-president, said the lawyer's group had been work- ing toward divorce law reform since » 1941, The brief, based on resolutions approved at the association's Sep- tember annual meeting, recommend- ed that grounds for divorce be widened extensively. , Incurable unsoundness of mind would be considered grounds for divorce "where the afflicted spouse has been continuously under care The Osharn Times T, L, WILSON, Publisher &, C.

Radical changes in what in many instances are meaningless regula- tions in Canadian divorce laws have long been recommended, Some changes have been made, Yet with adultery the sole ground for divorce, Canada has fostered a type of di- vorce racketeering in which perjury and collusion dominate, It has been estimated that a good quarter of the 6,000 divorces each year in the coun- try have been frauduently manip- ulated, The dissolution of a marriage is a serious step, However, as The London Free Press says, the time has come for "sensible and humane legislation to replace the rigid law in existence as long as Confedera- tion itself," SNOUGH OF THIS!

P. F, Mingo-Sweeney of Truro, N.8,, Col, Frank MeBachren of Tor+ onto, John Matheson, MP of Brockville, and others, ADMONISH PEARSON At its inaugural meeting, the members launched the new so ciety with an appropriate salvo, A letter was drafted and dite patched to Prime Minister Pear+ son, to protest against the gove ernment's declared intent to ree move the coat of arms of the sovereign of Canada from ihe immediate ol governor-gens eral are members of this so» clety, this may rank as the first occasion in Canadian history when a prime minister has been formally admonished by two na- tive-born governor-generals for his policyfor which of course he has received no mandate from the Canadian people The secretary of the heraldic society, Mr, Norman Nunn, told me that he is amazed at the widespread interest in heraldry which he detects across Can- ada, There are many Canadian families which are entitled to coats of arms granted in past generations in England, Scot- land, Treland, France and other European countries, But the in- terest extends beyond those di- rectly concerned, and includes especially many stamp-collee- tors who study heraldry on pos- tage stamps Mr, Nunn explained to me that the enormous distances. of Canada hamper frequent gen- eral meetings of a society such as this; it will therefore be the policy of the society to transact most of its business by mail, in- cluding a monthly bulletin to be distributed to all members, and a periodical journal of greater length, Neo-Nazis Score Victory, Send Shudder In Europe By HAROLD MORRISON Canadian Press Staff Writer A minor triumph for West German right-wing extremism in the Hesse state elections has shaken Bonn and sent a shiver of concern through parts of Europe One British tabloid warned: "Die-hard Nazis are on the maroh again," The furore followed the suc- cess of the National Democrats ~-dubbed neo-Nazis by many of its former adherents---in cap- turing eight of the 96 seats in the Hesse legislature. This was the first time the ex- tremists had gained a seat in any of West Germany's 10 states and elated party leaders predicted it would be followed by bigger victories in Bavarian state elections Nov, 20 The Social Democrat moder: ates still retain control over Hesse, but the rise of the ex tremists, with their cries for West German independence and military power, opens new ques tions about the future of West German democracy Apart from all other factors, it gives Russia new ammuni tion against reunification of Kast and West Germany BLAMES BONN West German diplomats tend - Oh SAREE ARMA ANN to argue that the extremists, who maintain they are against the North Atlantic alliance and the European Common Market, would. have been. soundly crushed in Hesse but for politi- cal pagalysis in Bonn Some West Germans are in furiated by Chaticellor Ludwig Erhard's weak leadership, his continual yielding to the United States without increasing West German military power and the prospect of higher taxation to finance more arms purchases from American factories Adding to the frustration ts the lack of progress on German reunification As diplomats see it, the Hesse outcome involved a protest, with some voters casting their ballots against the existing po litical hierarchy rather than in direct support of the extremists Nevertheless, there is anxiety that more is involved' than a protest The rise of extremism may frighten moderates into greater co-operation and into the search for strong and attractive lead. ership, The alternative may be an. other dark chapter in German history involving the destruction of West German democracy and collapse of the Western partnership, a) sere OVERLAPPING, CONFUSION Priority As Well As Pollution Poses Problem By GWYN KINSEY TORONTO (Special)--There's thease shay these about Water pollution are being made, resolutions passed, headlines written, and, some: what belatedly, everyone is agreeing that pollution is a very bad thing Which it is, of course, With out. water, civilizations wither and die just as trees and grass do -- and having water. that is too dirty to use is like having no water at all . St, im all the fuss, it's a pity that some public attention is not being directed to the use of the water once it has been protected or rescued from pol- hution STIFF COMPETITION There is a great and rapidly growing competition for the use of water, Some of the uses are conflicting, and this makes necessary a system of prior ities The priorities cannot be set locally, because water is not just a local matter, It trevels, often a great distance. Abuse by one municipality can ir ore a distant municipality. For reason, it can even be difficult to set priorities on a regional 'basis, which puts the matter up te the provincial government, and when provincial boundaries are crossed or navi - waters affected, to the feder ment Before a priority system can days @ lot af fuss days Speecnes Vus make sense, however, there water use has a which affects stream must be an effective co-ordina- tion of the various authorities whe have something to do with the use of water, Right now, there's overlapping and confu- sion The Ontario government can. not help but be aware of the situation, It's been told in re- ports and briefs, one of the more pointed comments being made by the Ontario Water Re- sources Commission in a brief to a select committee of the Legislature, Said the OWRC "Conflicts with regard to water use are arising with in- creasing frequency, Decisions on priority of water use have to be made when limited sources of supply are used si- multaneously for domestic, stock, municipal, industrial, ir- rigation, recreation and waste- dilution purposes Because of the fundamental economic and social nature of water man: agement objective, it is gener. ally recognized that these should be specified hy the high- est policy making unit or units of government," FREQUENT PROBLEMS The OWRC recognizes _that overlapping of jurisdictions has occurred, and says The differences have not been serious but they indicate that prablems may eccur more frequently in the future hecmnee oe Trreren ews ho wht ye stitutes good water manage. ment practice or en which higher priority," Obviously, he an slected } te the citizen ed agency which oan in m ways become a law unto itself, The conflict and overlapping start with federal and provin: cial responsibilities.' When waters are navigable, they are constitutionally under federal control, but where is the divid- ing line between "navigable" and "recreational"? The shore- line is provincial, Tt goes on from there, When the Ontario department of energy and resources manage- ment prepared a booklet, "Waters in Ontario", it had to get the co-operation of seven other government departments and two provincial commis. sions, And if it sought to cover federal reguiations, it would have to deal with at least as many agencies at Ottawa, OTHER AGENCIES The Ontario Water Resources Commission is the agency en- trusted with the task of man agement of the province's water resources. It has prime responsibility for supply and quality, and has been given for- midable powers to carry out the job. But there are other agen- cles with a direct or in- direct interest, particularly in what is done with the water arner and thrauch them the agriculture department -- are interested in water for irri { the referee must dy sila gation, flow, The OWRC issues permits for the w withdrawals t as are the rural municipal. ities; -and-inis iavelves the pro« vincial drainage act, sometimes ARDA, and conservation au thorities who like to store water The conservation authorities, in turn, build dams, The dams create ponds and lakes, which make attractive --_-- recreation areas, offering swimming, boat- ing and fishing. The dams also affect stream flow -- and may be downstream from a spot best suited for an outlet for an OWRC sewage plant or up. stream from a planned munici- pal intake, DIFFERENT PURPOSES Dams are also built by On- tario Hydro for one purpose, as ARDA projects for another and by or under the supervision of Lands and Forests for still an- other, Water to the department of economics and development is a-key to industrial expansion, Water, te the tourism depart: ests department, is mainiy a habitat. for fish, From that point of view, the department has a primary interest in what Rappens to that habitat.

Damage exceeded §100,000,000 including the cost of the ships, Tn those days many ships were not equipped with wireless, Even if they were, the storm warning issued by the United States weather bureau Nov, 6 was nothing out of the ordinary, In November the Great Lakes ships expect to have rough weather, and they are always in a hurry to get to their home ports before navigation closes for the. winter, On the morning of Saturday, Nov, & the centre of the storm was at Sault Ste, Marie, The barometer was dropping rapidly and there was heavy rain over the lower Great Lakes, The weather bureau issued another warning, Then the wind intensi- fied and moved into Lake Hu- ron, Waves rose to frightening Over-Extended Division Of Labor, Soviet Affliction By JOHN BEST MOSCOW (CP) -- '"Nyet," said the stern-looking blonde behind the desk in a Moscow photo processing shop, The customer drew in his breath and got squared away for an argument, Several min- utes later it was over, The predictable outcome: another "Nyet"' from behind the desk, It was a small matter but, in its own way, revealing The customer had brought in two rolls of film and asked for one print of each picture, Impossible, said the girl, The customer would have to come back 1) days later, pick up the negatives at a desk about five paces from hers, go back to the first desk and order prints "The negatives go to a dif- TODAY IN HISTORY By THE CANADIAN PRESS Novy, 10, 1966...
