Ohe Oshawa Times 86 King St. E., Oshawa, Ontario Published by Canadian Newspapers Company Limited T. L. Wilson, Publisher E. C. Prince, Associate Publisher OSHAWA, ONTARIO, WEDNESDAY, MAY 31, 1967 "Technological Advance Of Britain Overlooked The leadership maintained by Britain in technological advance is being grossly overlooked by those who endeavor to assess the United Kingdom's acceptability for mem- bership in the European Common Market. * The roadblocks, as expected, have Been largely manoeuvred to position by the French president, General : DeGaulle. It is now estimated that it will take some two to five years for the British to meet his stipula- tions. He is in effect offering Brit- ain, associate status in the or- ' ganization. The Guelph Mercury has drawn attention to the fact that to those * who look back to two world wars > when Britain came to the rescue of the French people, the De Gaulle ~ atitude becomes extremely difficult ~-to understand. > Associate status, under terms of ~ the Rome Treaty which forms the » basis for the Common Market, was provided originally for those coun- tries which could not bear the full responsibility of membership such © as smaller European countries and * newly emerging nations. = However, the hard fact remains © that Britain is no longer today the power it was before the Second " World War. There are those who are prepared to suggest that within two years Britain will no longer be a world power or be able to play an effective role on the world stage. President de Gaulle's objections to British EEC entry have changed little in the past year. The pound sterling, tied to the dollar as a reserve currency in the Interna- tional Monetary Fund, is according to the president, an inflationary in- fluence in world finance. He also suggests the British have not made sacrifices comparable to those made by EEC countries in agriculture; have not displayed a readiness to accept a role as an equal partner. The president, perhaps signifi- cantly, neglected to mention one area where the British could make a much-needed contribution. This is in the field of technology. Here, Britain is the most advanced of all the Common Market countries whose leaders are deeply concerned at the speed of American technical progress and at the inroads U.S. technology is already making in Europe. British technology, as The Mer- cury states, is a factor that is bound to play an increasingly important role in the future of an Europe that must grow larger if it is ever to compete as a unit on an equal foot- ing with the United States and the Soviet, Union as a world power.

Industry, the Canadian Manufac- turers' Association newsletter, re- produced the list with the comment that "some allowance must be made for statistical variation from coun- try to country." But it should be regarded as "pretty accurate". In further comment The Ottawa Journal adds: "Most of our industrial competi- tors can take more satisfaction from the figures than can this country. In the past couple of years the Canadian strike record hasn't been getting any better. The ten-year average may show us in a more favorable light than we really deserve." OTTAWA REPORT Cowan Initiates Cigarette Curb By PATRICK NICHOLSON OTTAWA--Ralph Cowan, Tor- onto's famous Liberal MP who prefers the Cowan line to the official Liberal line sometimes, has started off on a new kick. He is making a common sense attempt to protect the adminis- tration of justice from falling into disrepute. Specifically Ralph Cowan has introduced a private member's bill in the House of Commons. This reads--in total--"The To- bacco' Restraint Act, chapter 266 of the Revised Statutes of Canada, 1952, is repealed." Its total of 15 words makes Bill C-59 the shortest, snappiest and least complicated piece of legislation' now before Parlia- ment; its brevity also highlights the Cowan ability of cutting out the frills and getting straight to the heart of a matter. The act thus put beneath the Cowan chopper is entitled "An Act to restrain the use of To- bacco by Young Persons," Its meat lies in a clause which specifies that everyone is guilty of an offence, punishable by a fine, who "directly or in- directly sells or gives or fur- nishes to a person under the age of 16 years any cigarettes or cigarette papers, whether for his own use or not, or sells or gives or furnishes to such per- son tobacco in any form, other than cigarettes, which tobacco he knows or has reason to be- lieve is for the use of that person." DID YOU BREAK LOW? The effect of that act is, as a reader in Sarnia points out, that whenever Junior is sent to the corner store to buy coffin nails for his dad, the corner store breaks Canadian law--and exposes itself to a fine of up to $100. Junior also breaks the law himself, and could be fined $1, when he '"'purchases or has in his possession, whether for his own use or not, any cigarettes." Ralph Cowan coments that this legislation has been on our statute books since 1908 and has certainly not accomplished what it started out to do. No doubt its purpose was ex- cellent but it has had a contrary effect to what was intended. Like all law which is a dead. letter and is not observed, it tends to bring the administra- tion of justice into disrepute." CAUSE CANCER It has been established be- yond any reasonable person's doubt that cigarettes, when smoked consistently and in quantity, are a_ contributory factor to cancer of the lung and respiratory tract, and predis- pose their users to other lethal ailments. But when this act was. passed nearly 60 years ago, this medi- cal disadvantage was not es- tablished. Nevertheless the act was passed to make it illegal for children to. be tempted to smoke, Ralph Cowan takes this an interesting step further. "Many people have been killed by blows from a hammer or an ax," he points out. So, to re- move the temptation to do mur- der, "perhaps it should be made a crime to be found in possession of one of those hor- rible instrun.ents." With which far - fetched par- allel, he effectively destroys any argument for the validity of this ancient piece of ignored and infringed legislation. UNLIKELY TO PASS What will happen to Bill C-59? Well, like almost every private member's bill, it will perhaps be discussed one day in that unduly brief period called '"'pri- vate members' hour."' But it is unlikely to be passed. Of course the attorney general of Canada, as a member of the cabinet, could give the bill his effective blessing, and arrange for it to be passed. But what a horrible precedent this would create. Every old statute, now gathering dust and forgotten, would have to be re- furbished or repealed too. And the parliamentary year just is not long enough for that. But Ralph Cowan has per- formed a useful service; he has shown the need to revise our old laws, Famed Railway Builder Staged Picnic In Culvert By IAN MacKENZIE HALIFAX (CP)--Sir Sandford Fleming threw a picnic party 100 years ago May 31 and it would have been a washout be- cause of the rain but for a con- venient railway culvert. The party was to celebrate the opening of the Truro-to-Pic- tou Landing section of the Nova Scotia Railway. The fact that it was held in a culvert was per- haps fitting because the conduit had been built by Fleming in a radically new approach to rail- way construction. The 64 miles of track between Halifax and Truro were opened in 1858 but money ran out before the line could be extended. However, Dr. Charles Tupper, then premier of Nova Scotia and later knighted for his role in Confederation, wanted the line put through to Pictou Landing, 40 miles from Truro on Nova Scotia's north shore, as part of a general network of lines within the province. Tenders were called and work was started in 1864. The con- tractors, many of them profes- sional men and small merchants in Pictou County, had no idea what they were getting into. Work bogged down and finally ground to a halt the following year. At this point entered Fleming, the Scottish-born engineer and railway builder who was later to become famed as the father of standard time. Fleming, who had been chief engineer of the Ontario, Simcoe and Huron railway in Upper Canada, submitted a bid of $2,116,500 and undertook to com- plete the Nova Scotia Railway by May 31, 1867. His bid was eight per cent be- low the original tenders and the government accepted it on the advice of Alex.McNab, the pro- vincial engineer. -- Do, You THINK, Tie LIVE, winieiaeiae po You THINK YouLt LIVE, Dactor 2 ¢ --~--/ WHAT A CHANGE FEW YEARS MAKE munuit INTERPRETING THE NEWS Johnson Versus Nixon? By PHILIP DEANE Foreign Affairs Analyst WASHINGTON -- Richard Nixon as the Republican candi- date, Lyndon Johnson for the Democrats: This, according to professional political handicap- pers, will be the lineup next year. Gov. George Romney of Michigan, they say, has dropped out of the Republican picture. Bobby Kennedy might not get the Democratic nomina- tion even if Johnson, by some miracle, decided not to run. There are only two dark horses, Gov. Nelson Rockefeller of New York and Gov, Ronald Reagan of California. It is too early, of course, to foreclose anything, but so vast is the power of the American presidency that handicapping the race which leads to the White House is the favorite sport of diplomats and states- men around the world, Nowhere is the sport followed more fa- natically than in Washington where the best and most expe- rienced prognosticators are. They say that Romney has faded despite his good looks be- cause he has little to say that impresses the electorate in whole or in part. The moderates do not find him intelligent or experienced One of the probl facing construction crews was a series of deep ravines in the Gordon Summit area midway between Truro and Pictou Landing. The normal procedure would have been to build iron bridges across them, but Fleming came up with a new approach. He imported two huge machines known as Great American Ex- cavators, a primitive type of steam shovel, and filled in the ravines -- much faster and cheaper than trying to bridge them. Culverts were constructed to carry water beneath the fill, and it was in one of these culvert? that Fleming held his opening- day picnic May 31, 1867, one month before Confederation. FIRST FOUNDED IN 1639 WAR CASUALTIES NEEDED CARE Heroism, Hardship In Hospital History Imagine sailing 3,000 miles across the virtually unknown to a strange, wild land where you face a premature death either at the hands of hostile Indians or from disease in es- tablishing North America's first hospital. That is the prospect that faced three brave and dedi- cated Augustinian Sisters from Dieppe, France, when they founded L'Hotel Dieu Hospital at Quebec City in 1639. Sister Anne Lecointre de St. Bernard, Sister Marie Forestier de St. Bonaventure de Jesus and Sister Marie Guenet de St. Ignace, known as Mere de St. Ignace, spent a harsh winter in their new land. All three felt sick as a result of providirg care for 100 Europeans and 200 Indians . . . Mother Marie de é St. Igance died in the Spring. : A.second chapter in the his- tory of Canadian hospitals was . written in 1642 when Mlle : Jeanne Mance landed at Ville ? arie (now Montreal). Although i harassed by Indian attacks, she set about building L'Hotel Dieu de St. Joseph de Montreal. Con- sidered Canada's first lay hos- pital nurse and administrator, 3 Mile Mance signed an agree- 4 ment with the Religious Hospi- ' tallers of St. Joseph to staff and maintain the hospital to ensure ? care and service to the little community beyond her lifetime. ; In 1694 the Quebec General ees Hospital was formed as an in- firmary and staffed by Augus- tinian Sisters from the Hotel Dieu. A philanthropic widow of Montreal, Madame d'Youville formed the Soeurs de la Charite de L'Hospital de Montreal (Grey Nuns) in 1735. Following the rules of St. Vincent de Paul, these sisters were the first to initiate home nursing in Canada by visiting and caring for the sick at home. dians conducted at Marie by missionary priests as early as 1790. However, it was not until 1818 that 399 acres of land were granted by the Council of Upper Canada for the creation of a public hospi Sault Ste. tlers tal at York. Building néwly completed hospital was commenced in 1820 and was tal i completed n 1824. But then is a Parliament burned down and the surg RCMP, in the Red River Valley, Grey Nuns from Montreal made a perilous canoe trip up the Assiniboine and Red Rivers to St. Boniface, Manitoba, to create the St. Boniface General Hospi- sisters made a total the railroad and set- .

During its first 10 years of 6,000 gh; the right wing does not forgive his opposition to Gold- water; the labor unions suspect a big-business tycoon; the jour- nalists who study hin. most closely wonder what it is he has to offer. He made some capital 'out of his physical style and then lost ground. Bobby Kennedy has sustained a massive White House cam- paign against him which em- phaized selected aspects of his career to label him an oppor- tunist interested only in his image. The disagreements of the Kennedy family with Wil- liam Manchester, who wrote the book Death of a President, were made to look like petty squab- bling and hurt Bobby. The ma- jority, moreover, has swung clearly to a hawkish mood and even though he knows this, he has refused to go along, thus belying the charge that he is an opportunist but losing following. YEARS AGO 25 YEARS AGO May 31, 1942 Reginald A. Ward has been Agomdh vs Nixon has made an astonish- ing comeback by working as- siduously for the grass - roots leaders of the Republican party. They are grateful to him and have promoted his candidacy. And since Romney faded, Nixon, the second man on the Gallup Poll, inherited first place. His position on Vietnam is impeccably hawkish and he is the only Republican to whom the people attribute experience in world affairs; this makes him the more acceptable chal- lenger when the country is at war and if he scores hand- somely in the primaries, wiping out the memory of his past electoral defeats, he is certain of the Republican nomination. He is not, of course, the only experienced Republican. Mod- erates of both parties would probably rally to Rockefeller, forgiving him for his divorce. He has been an impressive gov- ernor, a remarkable vote-get- ter. He might yet obtain the nomination simply because so many experts thank he would make the best president. But the right - wing Republicans would disown him at the polls. They want Reagan, who is extremely articulate and sounds like a high school textbook on civics--with which great num- bers can identify. Increasing popular hawkishness over Viet- nam would help Reagan, but he is considered less able than Nixon to challenge Johnson. Manitoba As Republic Debated In Spence Store By BOB BOWMAN Manitoba would be called As- siniboia if it had not been for a screwball by the name of Thomas Spence who tried to found a republic on the Prairies. On May 31, 1867, settlers in the Portage La Prairie region gath- ered. in Spence's store to debate whether the Northwest should join Canada, the U.S. or become an independent republic. Spence claimed later that he was trying to save the territory for Canada but he did issue a proclamation announcing the republic, with himself as presi- dent. His cabinet ministers dou- bled as policemen, but soon ran into trouble trying to collect taxes. It was charged that the members of the government were spending. the money on whisky for themselves. The re- public came to a sudden end when Spence arrested one of the settlers who refused to pay taxes. Neighbors came to the rescue, and Spence was found hiding behind a table pleading to be allowed to leave the area because he was needed by his wife and family. However, Louis Riel knew Spence who had suggested the name Manitoba for the Red River area. After the Red River uprising in 1869-1870 the federal government accepted most of the proposals made by Riel's provisional government, and one of them was that the new province be called Mani- toba_ rather than Assiniboia which the federal government had proposed.

Nor have any undeclared candidat. es. The great bulk of Canadian voters (70%) cannot say who they want as Conservative lea- der, when a convention is held in September. Far down the Percentage ladder comes the names of three men -- George Hees, chosen by 8% of the citi- zens, Davie Fulton by 7% and John Diefenbaker by 7%. (Most of Mr. Deifenbaker's upport comes from the western prove inces, as does support for Al- vin Hamilton -- 1%.) Three provincial premiers are named as potential leaders -- John Robarts (2%), Duff Roblin and Robert Stanfield, with less than 1% each. National president of the Progressive Conservative Association, Dalton Camp, is chosen by 1%. Two Studies last year showed about the same ratio between Messrs. Fulton and Hees.

Four young ladies, Doreen Peeling, Donna_ Robinson, Helen Robinson and Erlene Peeling held a raffle recently and raised $8.00 for the Milk French military hospitals were established in Acadia at Port Royal (Annapolis, Nova Scotia) and Louisbourg, Cape Breton, in the early 17th cen- tury. In 1744 the British re- ported that the Louisbourg hos- pital had a two-storey structure with 104 beds. Newfoundland got its first hos- pital in 1662 at Placenta, fol- lowed by three military hospi- tals at St. John's during the early 1700's, and a private hos- pital built in 1782 at St. Johns. The first known hospitals in Ontario were military hospitals at Kingston and Fort York, the site-of present day Toronto, al- though no exact date is recorded for the establishment of either. The Fort York Hospital was de- stroyed by invading Americans during the War of 1812 and the soldiers and militiamen defend- ing Canada were cared for in a temporary hospital set up in St. James Church, now St. James Cathedral. Mention has also been found in old records of a hospital for In- re-outfitted to house the legis- lative assembly until 1829. Finally in 1830, after 12 years delay, what is now the Toronto General Hospital opened its doors to the sick. The second oldest hospital in Ontario today is the Kingston General Hospital, which opened in 1833 with six beds. The Kings- ton hospital's early history fol- lowed a remarkably similar pat- eral. tern to that of the Toronto Gen- eral. St. John, New Brunswick pro- vided the Kent Marine Hospital in 1822 and a Provincial Mental Hospital in 1836. P. E. I., late on the scene in the maritimes, de- veloped the Charlottetown Hos- pital in 1872, operated originally by the Sisters of Charity and now by the Sisters of St. Martha and the following year a lay hospital -- the Prince Edward Island Hospital was opened in the same city. Development of hospitals in western Canada followed the house calls. The first patient of the new, 12-bed Winnipeg General Hospi- tal was admitted with typhoid fever on Christmas Eve 1872. Since its frontier days this hos- pital has developed into a medi- cal complex tied into the Uni- versity of Manitoba's medical school. Today it is conquering new frontiers in medicine and health-care. The prairies were first intro- duced to hospitals when they were built at Ille de Grace, Sas- katchewan, by the Grey Nuns, and near Edmonton at St. Al- bert, Alberta. The colorful history of the Prairie hospitals encompasses military hospital bases set up at Saskatoon and Moosejaw during the Riel Rebellion of 1885, as well as RCMP outposts and rail- road camp hospitals used in con- struction of the Trans-Canada rail line. Regina got its first hospital in 1889 when a Baptist minister's wife opened a nurs- ing home for the sick, For Britain Fund. 40 YEARS AGO May 31, 1927 A fire in downtown.
