Bridey, December 30, 1966 MD Film Reviews History. _ToRoMTo (cha 2 mint 100 years of medicine in Canada has been prepared for the Cana- dian Medical Association whose}, centennial in 1967 coincides with that of the Dominion. Dedicated "to the individual mygecsory engaged day by day providing and improving medical services to the Cana- dian people," 'the film opens in 1867 with a scene of a country doctor arriving by horse and buggy at the home of a fever- stricken boy. The diagnosis is made. The yes or no of survival is left to nature for there are no miracle drugs. It closes with a similar scene 100 years later as the doctor leaves: in his station-wagon. The diagnosis is the same but the doctor has injected a drug which will overcome the infec- tion in a matter of days. There is no thought, or fear, of immi- nent death. PORTRAYS ADVANCES The century between portrays advances in medicine with ref- erences to and pictures of many of the men on the honor roll of Canadian doctors and medical scientists--men such as Sir Wil- liam Osler, Sir Frederick Bant- ing, Dr. Charles Best and Dr. Hans Selye.

Kelly of Toronto; French by Dr. Nor- mand Belliveau of Quebec, the CMA's centennial - year presi- dent.

Martin Sees Viet Peace BRIDGETOWN (Reuters) -- Paul Martin, Canada's external affairs minister, expressed con- fidence here Thursday that there will be a peaceful settle- ment to the war in Vietnam. Martin, in Barbados on holi- day, declared in an interview that Canada, as a member of the International Control Com- mission in Vietnam, is doing all it can to bring about a negoti- ated settlement to the war. Martin said the commission has, access to both the Saigon and Hanoi governments and this' gives its members an op- portunity not open to any other country. Turning to the Rhodesian is- sue, Martin said the Canadian government believes the break- away regime of Prime Minister Tan Smith must be brought to an end, Ottawa was giving full support to mandatory sanctions recently imposed by the United Nations Security Council. Experts Find Bleeder Drug LONDON (Reuters) --Med- ical experts have discovered an inexpensive drug for treatment of hemophiliacs, people subject to uncontrollable bleeding the British Medical Journal re- ported Thursday.

Steel Orders May Decline TORONTO (CP)--A substan- tial backlog of orders assures Canada's steel construction in- dustry of a high level of activ- ity well into the second quarter of 1967, but new bookings might decline by five or 10 per cent, the Canadian Institute of Steel Construction says. In a year-end statement, in- stitute chairman Eric Hartley says the industry "optimistic- ally" expects'a volume of busi- ness comparable to 1966, when members' orders for fabricated steel totalled 400,009 tons. That was 100,000 tons less than in 1965, described as an exceedingly high total. Mr. Hartley' says that the pressure of increased competi- tion is expected to restrain prices despite increased labor costs. "Steel is in good supply and material prices are expected to temain relatively constant.'
