86 King St. E., She Oshawa Fines Oshawa, Ontario : Published by Canadian Newspapers Company Limited T. L. Wilson, Publisher E. C. Prince, Associate Publisher OSHAWA, ONTARIO, WEDNESDAY, MAY 3, 1967 The contemporary awareness of many in the church ministry to the woes of the world around them has won wide commendation. It is also questioned from time to time. not on the matter or right or even re- sponsibility to become involved, but on the issue of putting first thing first. An United Church minister has recently demonstrated a grave con- cern over the latter. He charged that the United Church has for- saken its first responsibility of evangelism. He takes issue with the program of the United Church Board of Evangelism and Social Service. A Canadian editorial representa- tive of the U.S. evangelical Jour- nal, Christianity Today, the Rev. Berkley Reynolds charges "that a great segment of the United Church has forgotten its primary function in a plethora of resolutions on Viet Nam, abortion, divorce, capital pun- ishment, car insurance and even denominational merger". "How long since a headquarters officer of the United Church gave The Board of Education in Wind- sor has a problem. It is worried about having set a precedent in per- mitting a group of teachers to use a school gymnasium on Sunday. Previously schools were used on the Sabbath in the other Motor City for religious purposes only. The Windsor Star commends the creating of precedent as action long overdue. There is no reason school facilities should be idle on Sunday if responsible citizens want to use them and are willing to pay a rea- sonable fee.

Wide Scope Of Concern Questioned By Minister an altar call for men and women to come forward and accept Christ as their Saviour?" he asks. In his view not many in the Toronto head- quarters would boast of their rec- ord in. this record. "I am not advocating a fundamen- talism which has a literaliste inter- pretation of the Scripture and s0- cial isolationism. That breeds cult- ism and extremism, and produces separatists and legalists. Evangeli- eal Christianity knew nothing of those, but the pendulum has swung in the opposite direction. "We now try to bring about the Kingdom of God through a welfare atate. We've twisted the words of Jesus to read -- seek ye the wel- fare state and the kingdom of God will be added unto you." The scope of critical concern as- sume by some in the ministry has caused lay people to marvel at the degree of involvement they at- tempt. That it is also attracting at- tention within the church adds in- terest, especially when the views of Mr. Reynolds were published by The United Church Observer. Wider Use Of Schools bowling alleys hockey arenas, golf courses, theatres can be open Sun- day. Hotel dining rooms can serve liquor with meals on Sundays, which is a form of entertainment. "There has been a tremendous wastage of public money invested in school properties which had not been fully used," says The Star. It is the public's money that is being spent on school buildings. As long as there is no interference with the primary purpose of schools in edu- cation, the public should be able to use their facilities to the full. The need for more and more rec- reational facilities is one that Wind- sor shares with many communities. A new college is being built there with an 800-seat auditorium, gym- nasium, swimming pool and library. The president of the college has al- ready announced he would like the institution to be open 24 hours a day, seven days a week and that the public will be encouraged to make use of the facilities. It is the use rather than the mon- etary return which is really the im- portant factor. The community has already made considerable financial investment in such facilities through tax contributions. The extrava- gance comes in wasting the facili- ties through not making full use of them rather than in setting too moderate a fee for their rental. IMPROVED TREATMENT SEEN FOR FRENCH - CANADIANS By THE CANADIAN INSTITUTE OF PUBLIC OPINION (World Copyright Reserved) Indicative of the changing patterns in Canada is the complete reversal of opinions, over 25 years, as to whether or not French Canadians are well treated in the Civil Service and business. Today, nearly six-in-ten adults say "yes" French Can- adians are well treated in the Civil Service and business. Less than two-inten do not agree with this belief. In 1942 the answers were reversed. Six-in-ten (60%) felt French Canadians were not well treated in the Civil Service and 53% said the same for business. Twenty-six per cent felt they were well treated in both categories. ' In the western provinces, farthest away from" Quebec, a big majority (66% and 69%) feels French Canadians are well treated today in both the Civil Service and business. Deiat , a th, kers ve: fied with their status. A are still not satis- third (33%) in that province say they are not well treated in government service and more than 4-in-ten (43%) say the same for the business world. In the Maritimes a large majority feels French Canadians are well treated in both spheres. The question: "In general, do you believe that French-speaking Canadians have been well treated in the Civil Ser- vice and business?"

But nature has combined un- usual beaut)\with helpless trust- ing babyhood'to create the ir- resistible appeal of the newborn whitecoat seals in the Gulf of St. Lawrence. Unlike the beauty of a rose, the delight of a harp seal's skin survives death. This provides the commercial lure conflicting with the emotion of animal lovers, who are sickened by the slaughter on the icepans of the gulf, where a few hun- dred swilers thrash hell out of a hundred thousand little ani- mals to line with gold the pock- ets of middlemen and entre- preneurs. Canada has earned a bad name in Europe through the screening of lurid films show- ing, in gory technicolor, baby seals being flensed alive. In flensing, the swiler hacks off in one piece the skin, blubber and front flippers --. weighing per- haps 25: pounds--leaving only the steaming crimson rib-cage skull and bowels --weighing around eight pounds. The edible meat is not harvested. Last week the seal hunt switched unexpectedly to the unlikely venue of the parlia- mentary press gallery here. Of- ficials of the Society for the Prevention of Cruelty to Ani- mals staged a conference for the usual purpose of informing the press. Strong journalistic t hs, long d to the blood gushed by political stilettoes, were turned by the colored films; these showed the gore flowing from the. still squirming carcasses of flensed seals, to incarnadine the pure white ice of the gulf. SPCA officials insisted that it is impossible to police the seal hunt adequately, and thus to prevent the cruelty which re- sulted in 36 per cent of the baby seals being flensed alive this year. So, they urge, the whole bloody mess should be outlawed. "Are you trying to kill a whole industry?" shouted New- foundiland MP Jim Tucker. The film was' faked, suggested Que- bec MP Ray Rock. A Prairie coyboy, Cliff Smallwood, got entangled in the seal hunt, ex- plaining how he kills chickens by chopping their heads off. The seal herds number around 6,000,000, each seal eats up to 15 pounds of fish a day. "Can a hungry world afford this division of its supper with seals?' "Oh, but during the 15- day whelping season, when they are temporarily in the gulf, seals don't eat fish." "Not even on Fridays?" "Are you trying to kill our swilers' livelihood?" asked Tucker, who at that moment had the Newfoundland delicacy of seal flippers being fried in the parliamentary restraurant for his dinner guests. New- landed flippers fetch $2 a pair, a valuable by-product of the pelt. "We are not trying to kill an industry; only to abolish the needless cruelty of skinning young seals alive,' insisted A. L. MacLaurin, president of the Canadian SPCA. "My chickens flap their wings after I have chopped their heads off," announced Cliff Smallwood. CITY IN 10TH CENTURY UNIQUE COMMUNITY Change Comes To Stronghold Of Capitalism By CARL MOLLINS LONDON (CP) -- The City of London, durable stronghold of capitalism, is entering its 10th century as a_ specially- favored money capital be- sieged by change. The City, a name always capitalized when applied to the original square mile of metropolitan London, has been another word for finance since royal charters 900 years ago granted exceptional free- doms to encourage its genius for trade. Involved now in physical and functional renewal, the City nevertheless remains a unique community with a spe- cial mystique. Successive Labor jovern- ments in neighboring West- minster have tempered social- ist suspicion of the City with respect for its proven money- making prowess. A City pub- licity campaign--itself an in- novation -- claims credit for helping to redress Britain's physical trade deficit with an annual profit of about $600,- 000,000 from _ international middleman services. Appro- priately for the City's magical image, the services are called "invisible trade." The variety and -concentra- tion of City life embellish the romance. A stroller lacking curiosity could walk its long- est dimension between Tem- ple Bar and Aldgate Pump in 30 minutes. The thoroughly curious could spend weeks ex- ploring its 900 streets and by- s and remain as puzzled at 'Wrestlers Court as he was at Amen Corner. FEW ARE RESIDENTS Examples of staggering in- efficiency amid the evidence of riches and power only add to the aura of mystery. More than 500,000 people cram every cranny of the City's 677 acres and choke London with spectacular rush hours since fewer than 5,000 are residents, Glass-and-ter- razzo office blocke rising among Roman ruins, Christo- pher Wren churches and brass-and - marble Victoriana remain vacant a year after completion, but promised res- {dential blocks are not built. In the heart of the business district, on land worth $600 a foot and almost inaccessible through a maze of alleys, Leadenhall Market persists in offering to sell golden plover, ripe pheasant and battery- reared chickens. The answer you hear, and read, and even see is that the system works. The response of critics is that it could work better. "Its danger is that it might, like the Hapsburg court, gradually become irrel- evant to the modern world," writes chronicler Anthony Sampson. In the meantime at least, the City is a middleman's Val- halla, a marketplace that deals in goods as pungently physical as Billingsgate fish or as abstract as a merchant banker's reputation. SELL MEAT AND GEMS The only things of note ac- tually manufactured within the City boundaries are the 18,000,000 daily and 24,000,000 Sunday newspapers turned out by the world's most prolific rotary presses along Fleet Street. The City's true calling is making money. At Smithfield on the north- west boundary, the world's biggest meat market flour- ishes alongside the building where the De Beers monopoly markets 85 per cent of the world's diamonds. Enough tea-leaf for 40,000,- 000,000 cups is auctioned every year in Mincing Lane. At the new glass premises of N. M. Rothschild and Sons, St. Swithin's Lane, 80 per cent of the world's gold production is priced at a daily ritual where- by three bullion brokers and two refiners signal sales or purchases by raising and Jow- ering miniature Union Jacks. The world's largest interna- tional fur market is. conducted by auction at Beaver Hall on Garlick Hill, where the Hud- son's Bay Company assem- bles persian lamb from South- West Africa, mink from Hol- land and beaver from Canada. Physical and spiritual .cen- trepiece of the City is the Bank of England, agent of the 4 national treasury and the ma- jor influence on City activi- ties. The City's interna- tional reputation is concen- trated within a few blocks of the austere institution, which stands: at the intersection of eight streets known simply as "The Bank." PLACE TO BORROW Next door, the stock ex- change has a turnover second only to Wall Street on almost 10,000 listed stocks. The dis- count men of Lombard Street, calculating interest at 1-64th of one per cent, are go-be- tweens in the world's premier short-term money market-- the best place to borrow a few million for a few weeks. Round about loom the big clearing banks, with assets of $30,000,000,000; the major in- surance companies, with an- nual premium incomes of $7,000,000,000; "The Room" at Lloyd's, as long as three foot- ball fields, where insurance risks are spread in thin frac- tions among more than 5,000 personally liable members. The elite of the inner circle in popular romance are the merchant bankers, the Bar- ings, Rothschilds, Samuel Montagu, Hambros and a dozen others classified as "ac- cepting houses" from their stock -in- trade of accepting bills of exchange and guaran- teeing payment. Tomorrow: Computers come to the City, Zit, SPACE AGE FAIR OFF PAD FOREIGN AFFAIRS ANALYSIS Revolts Against Red Tapes By PHILLIP DEANE Foreign Affairs Analyst The most sigificant revolution in the world may be against bureaucrats, a revolution fought by the progressive elements of most societies. In Europe, Italy is the country where the battle is liveliest and where the bu- reaucracy is most pernicious. Italian democracy is riddled with "political machines" that acquire and retain power by giving civil service jobs to faith- ful supporters. The numbers of such jobs are never accurately known because they grow so fast, Daily, more and more peo- ple are installed behind desks and equipped with rubber stamps whose impression must be obtained on a piece of paper before anything constructive can begin. The salaries such petty bu- reacrats receive are totally in- sufficient to maintain life. But the wielder of a rubber stamp is tacitly expected to demand payment before he affixes his stamp onto the -multiple per- mits citizens must obtain before they can buy, sell, work, move, marry, study or die. The cost for obtaining service from the civil service is proportionate to the wealth of the man who needs a government permit; the progressive industrialists who are modernizing Italy's econ- omy are the principal victims of the graft and they are its prin- cipal, nemesis because they know that their country cannot progress with the bureaucratic millstone around its neck. REFORM The modernizers have already established some political beach - heads and have three men of their own kind in the Italian cabinet. They also are fighting to reform municipal government and in that field, curiously, the Communists and the industrialists find them- selves pursuing the same objec- tive of clean government. The progressive industrialists of Italy pin their hopes on the TODAY IN HISTORY By THE CANADIAN PRESS May 3, 1967... The Wars of the Roses ended in England 496 years ago today -- in 1471 -- when the Yorkist forces of King Edward IV massacred the Lancastrian supporters of King Henry VI -- himself then in captivity -- at the battle of Tewkesbury. The only surviving claimant to the throne was Henry Tu- dor, earl of Richmond. He returned from exile and seized the crown from Rich- ard III in 1485. 1919 -- Two women were flown. to Atlantic City from New York in the first com- mercial passenger flight in the United States. 1987 -- Margaret Mit- chell's novel Gone With the Wind won the Pulitzer Prize. First World War Fifty years ago today--in 1917 -- Alexandre Zaimis formed a new government in Greece; Canadians cap- tured Fresnoy and Austral- ians captured Bullecourt despite Prussian counter- attacks on the Arras front. Second World War Twenty-five years ago to- day--in 1942--a Greek gov- ernment - in - exile was organized in Cairo; the Ja- panese entered Bhamo, head of the Irrawaddy Ri- ver navigation system, in Burma; the German battle- ships Scharnhorst and Gnei- senau were under repair in Baltic ports, Common Market, believing that the {ncreased foreign competi- tion roduces will, by a sort of sink-or-swim logic, force even traditionalist politicians to sup- port efficiency as opposed to patronage. Political philos- ophies and ethical arguments play little role in this debate; the technocrats, the moderniz- ers simply argue that the old ways keep living standards down. The Italian experience is par- alleled more or less in many other countries. In Greece, for instance, the tech ats hope that membership in the Com- mon Market will impose effi- ciency and reduce patronage. In Britain, patronage is no prob- lem but efficiency is and here again joining the Common Mar- ket is seen as signing up for obligatory reform. This desire for efficiency and its fruits in terms of better liv- ing, is the principal factor in the revolutionary application of capitalist economics by Com- munist countries. On both sides of the iron curtain, bureaucracy is conceded to be the principal enemy of efficiency. Compared with European bureaucracies, those of Canada and the U.S. are models of progressiveness and probity. Chief Donnacona Sailed To France With Cartier By BOB BOWMAN Indian Chief. Donnacona, of Quebec had the distinction of becoming a king. Jacques Car- tier spent the winter of 1535-1536 at Stadacona, as Quebec was called, and suffered terrible hardship. Twenty - five of his best men died from scurvy and the survivors.impatiently waited for spring so they could return to France. Cartier felt that he had to do something spectacular to please King Francis I so he decided to abduct, if necessary, Chief Don- nacona and some of his follow- ers. A great feast was arranged for May 3, 1536, which was Holy- rood Day. First there was a re- ligious ceremony during which Cartier planted a huge cross as he had done at Gaspe two years before. Then he proclaimed Francis I to be king of Canada. Donnacona and his men were suspicious, but finally entered Cartier's habitation to enjoy the feast. They were seized imme- diately and taken to the ships anchored in the river while the Indians on shore kept up a con- tinuous howl. However, Cartier managed to persuade Donna- cona and 12 of his men to sail to France willingly. He told Donnacona that he would be treated like a g, given rich presents, and/'then be allowed to return to Stadacona. When Donnacona agreed, the Indians on shore were invited to paddle out to the ships, and were given presents of two brass frying pans and eight steel hatchets. The expedition arrived at St. Malo on July 6, where the Indians were bap- tized, and Donnacona took the name of his fellow ruler, Fran- eis I. Unfortunately, the easy life of France was too much for the Indians and they all died, ex- cept a baby girl who had been given to Cartier by her father. It was five years before Cartier saw Stadacona again, but he told the Indians there that their brothers who had gone to France had become great lords, and would not return.

QUEEN'S PARK Industrial Site Study Significant interesting reports the Ontario ~ economic council has produced deals with the experience with plant locations in the province. The report is of particular value, of course, to anyone in- terested in the question of de- centralization of industry and local industrial development agéncies. The council ordered a study of 42 industries that had located in smaller centres to find out the reasons why and what their experience had been. ' One significant point in the report is that personal consider- ations by ownership can play an important part in locating indus- try outside the big industrial centres. The survey finds that in some cases access to recreational fa- cilities was even more impor- tant than closeness to market. Equally significant was that even though they had run into some problems, 65 per cent of the industries said they would locate where they were if they had the choice all over again. Labor and housing supply were the two main problems faced. Many industries found no size- able labor pool in their locali- ties. And the labor that was available was of low standard, of a school drop-out level that was hard to train. And in some cases it was hard to keep workers that were brought in because of a shortage of housing. But overall, company officials were happy to be in the smaller areas, and without the traffic jams and other problems of congestion in the major centres. HEALTH REGISTRY A first step for an integrated health insurance program in the province has been taken with legislation to establish a health insurance registration board. The board when it is operat- ing--and this will take some time--will handle the registra- tion and premium collection for both hospital insurance and OMSIP. In the first stage at least the existing agencies will handle the out-payments and will adjudi- cate on claims and pay out the benefits to whoever it is going-- hospitals, doctors or patients. The eventual result of the Program should be a consider able improvement in efficiency, and convenience for the public, Pr bly, for le, the one premium payment will cover both hospital and medical insurance, and any other serv- ices, such as dental care, which may be added in the future. Also, there will be a central information bureau. Which will be distinctly welcome by anyone who has tried to get informa- tion out of OMSIP.
