The bylaw, requiring in part six parking spaces for each doctor's office at any medical centre, came under the scalpel of city council's traffic commit- tee this week. The committee voted Wednes- day to recommend a_ bylaw amendment that would give medical centres a new re- quirement of only three park- ing spaces per doctor's office.

HISTORY OF EDUCATION HALIFAX (CP) -- The Nova Scotia Teachers' Union will pub- lish an illustrated 'history of education in the province as a centennial project. Twenty-five sketches by Nova Scotia artist John Cook will illustrate the development of education from the time of the Indians. Doris Hilchey, a Halifax high school wai quest from a Toronto develop- er that the bylaw be revised or plans for the centre would be dropped and about $22,000 in annual revenue would go out the window. The developer says the cost of building six spaces per office would be too stiff when the estimated cost of each parking slot stands at about $2,000.

TWO-YEAR DEADLINE SEEN Waste Disposal Problems Seen Serious For District 'A report tabled at the Cen- tral Ontario Joint Planning Board meeting last night indi- cated that waste disposal prob- lems in Oshawa and the sur- rounding five municipalities are serious and affect both the urban and rural sectors. Waste disposal facilities in the three urban areas, accord- ing to the report, do not have sufficient capacity to last more than two years and there are apparently no further landfill sites available within their cor- porate limits. The report states there are a large number-of small relative- ly inefficient refuse disposal sites being operated in the | Vancouver, Art Exhibit At Library The New Art Exhibition in the Auditorium of the Me- Laughlin Public Library com- prises five works by each of three painters of the Ontario Society of Artists.

A record 400 aircraft are ex- pected from all parts of On- tario and many points in the United States. Last year no less than 374 planes flew in to the break- fast falling only six short of breaking the all time record. The 1,200 pilots and guests who are expected to attend the annual event will consume large quantities of bacon, eggs, bread, and butter, The 250 dozen eggs and 165 pounds -of bacon will be prepared for the visitors by members of the Osh- awa Flying Club who are bear- ing the expense of the break- fast. The Oshawa fly-in is the larg- est affair of its kind and has resulted in 3,200 aircraft flying in since its inception in 1953. The club members are quite proud of the fact that there has never been a serious accident in spite of the heavy conges- tion of aircraft at the :nnual breakfasts. 5,000 SPECTATORS airport to witness the spectacle and this year the public is cordially invited to watch the event, according to George Slocombe Secretary Manager of the Oshawa Flying Club. | Prizes will be awarded to the flyers for such achieve- ments as being the first, 'oid- est, youngest, and first woman, pilot to land.

The conference will be co- chaired by Mrs. Gordon Dig- nem, representing the Catholic Parent-Teacher Association, and Mrs. Car] Creamer, represent- ing the Oshawa Home and School Association. Rev. Noble Hatton, regional) director of the Canadian Coun- cil of Christians and Jews, said the October conference would be called the "Rearing Children of Good Will Conference." He Said the conference will be designed to show how prejudice seeps into a community. "Chil- dren are not prejudiced -- they learn it from their parents. As in recent years the population of every Canadian city is increas- ing in its multi-ethnic character this is of utmost importance," he said.

ECONOMY SOUGHT D. P. Sexsmith, senior pro- ject engineer for MacLaren said, "'the bulk of the work will be to determine the most economical system to dispose of wastes. The cost of hauling refuse to a site could mitigate against the sharing of one site by the six municipalities." One of the points Mr. Sex- smith stressed was that the re- cent amendment to the Public Health Act would make refuse disposal regulations more strin- gent. He said the amendment is an attempt to ensure solid waste disposal practices are be- ing carried on properly. He said a certificate of ap- proval must be obtained to operate a disposal area. He stated if the applicant doesn't meet the requirements for the certificate, he can be prevent- ed from operating a land-fill area. | The board agreed last night to send copies of the report to the members of the six jocal councils for study.

It was an evening they The guest speaker, Miss of the Six white man's role, past and pres- ent, in the Indian affairs of Can- Miss Horn said, '"'when I face and speak to you it is with the full knowledge that you are here today because our people willed it to be so, and without that you would be non-existent, all of you, and your community, and your country, and perhaps all of this North American civiliza- tion as we know it." "Few Indians will ever tell you how they feel, even if they could express themselves,' she said. Few Indians trust you at all to tell you anything. I am an Indian who speaks the truth because I am an Iroquois, and we have a long tradition of truth speaking. We have no word in our language for a lie." Some Kinsmen after the speech were visiby annoyed by Miss Horn's remarks. Ron Wil- son, a Kinsmen member, told On July 3 Oshawa and District Labor Council carried a motion at a| way. meeting this week to ask Pre-|QPENING REMARKS nmier John Robarts for "'prompt} and legal declaration" of Do-| marks by saying, "I look at you |minion Day being observed as|and say "Kinsmen" . . . you are It was estimated the cost of|# holiday July 3. § the second stage study would| Dominion Day is a statutory |one else's kin but not mine.

"It's high time both industry and labor were released from the vagueness, uncertainty and inconsistencies surrounding this, the anniversary of Confedera- tion," Steven Melnichuk, ODLC political. action committee chairman, told the meeting. "It seems only fair and ap-| propriate that all Canadians (including our working people) be afforded a long weekend to celebrate such a memorable occasion,,.

INDIANS' ROLE . Miss Horn remarking on th role the Indian has played in Canadian history stated, "I have heard it said that they will rewrite the history books to- wards unity. in Canada." "Will the history books tell how the Iroquois were slaugh- tered when they gave up hon- orably in defeat by the French, and how they did not slaughter when they captured the French and Hurons?" "So far the lies in the history books make then: good for one purpose-to light a fire on a cold night -- and if they ever pass that law about' hate literature it's my intention to use the lies of your history books to have your officials of the Department of Education arrested on the spot." Miss Horn continued, 'You white people who occupy our land as tenants paid $300,000 each and every day during the not my Kinsmen.

It 'UAW Canadian Division | | Thirty years ago about 12 men worked from a congested second-floor office on Simcoe St. N. -- hard-bent on the idea jof organizing a union at Gen- jeral Motors of Canada in Osh- awa. Yesterday, two of them were in the elaborate Canadian Room of the Royal York Hotel in Toronto as the Canadian division of the United Auto Workers of America celebrated its 30th anniversary. Robert Mitchell, Sr. of near- by Greenwood and Arthur Schultz of Windsor, Ont., were among the original few granied ja provincial charter here March 2, 1937.

"And 'there is nothing in the world you can do to avoid it, dodge it, escape from it, other than to pack up and go back to the lands of your ancestors and you know there isn't much chance of that is there?" she added. Miss Horn attacked the gov- ernment of Canada for its role in Indian affairs, She said, "'the government, its politicians are so ignorant about Indians that all they will do is to cast an everlasting curse upon this land -- and not a mythical one but a social and financial one that will spread in widening rings forever -- because they have no understanding of the trugh fac- ing the Canadian people in re- lation to Indians." WHAT HELP? Miss Horn suggested that the ways to 'help Indians to support themselves were in protecting the Indians' lands, developing Indian communities, the train- ing of Indians, better medical care, greatly improved housing and better education. She posed the question -- "What can a Kinsmen \in Osh- awa do to help?" In reply she said, "I do feel sure that you are interested and that this problem of the Indian rates somewhere in the back of your conscience. Don't be hurried or worried. There is no rush. We have been here 20,000 years and: we may well be here when you are gone and for- gotten. But if we are to live together it would be interesting if you realized that we lived in this country in a certain manner, with certain motivation and cul- ture which bears no relation to yours." Following her speech, Miss Horn was asked if the Indians have ever tried to make a strong appeal to the senior gov- ernment through national serv- ice clubs or the churches. Miss Horn was most critical that the churches would or could help the Indians to improve their plight. '"'What did they do when they were put in charge of the reservations? They did nothing,"' she said. International Night was called The two chartered rs of Local 222 were at the anni- versary rally along with 34 other members of the Oshawa local. Local 222 officials on hand for the anniversary were Albert Taylor, president; Wil- liam Harding, secretary-treas- urer; Stephen Nimigon, chair- man of the GM shop commit- tee; Douglas Sutton, local serv- ice representative; Thomas Simmons, William Rutherford, by the Ki b of the club's affiliation with Round Table International, a world- wide organization of service clubs dedicated to the promo- tion of peace and better under- standing between all races.

FORCE, FEAR ARE PARTNERS Some timely tips on em- ployer-employee relations were offered to more than 100 dele- gates from Ontario municipal- ities at the Association of Mu- nicipal Electrical Utilities con- vention here Thursday night at the Carousel Inn. | Ian McNab, manager of the Special Activities Section, Gen- eral Motors of Canada Lid., said: | "No employee ever does his! best when he is afraid of his boss and similarly, no boss does his best when he is afraid of his employee." The delegates met yesterday for seminars on various types of operations and new items of interest to municipalities. The convention concluded early this afternoon. FORCE AND FEAR In his after-dinner speech, Mr. McNab pointed out that force and fear are partners, for only those who fear can be forced; and often, those who employ force are afraid for themselves. "There may be fear for posi- tion -- of failure -- of losing face or a fear of groups," Mr. McNab continued. "All of these are rooted in lack of facts, understanding, appreciation and faith -- fear of the 'un- known is at the top of the list." Supervision in the Sixties was |; the subject of his address. Human beings by nature are individualists they cannot and will not be driven -- that is, if you want the best from .| them, he said. "And so, I am convinced that herein lies the supervisor's greatest opportunity for ad- vancement and progress, in im- proving his ability to meet on some common ground with each individual in the group or groups with which he is con- cerned. In getting to know the individual the supervisor must get close enough to him to} know the changes that affect tended the conference. him and then deal with him on a man-to-man basis the job." Mr. McNab continued: "T don't think there are any real tricks to be learned which will help us to get along with people, It's what we are -- how we think and act that really matters. In short, our attitude to our employees as a group is far more important in influenc- ing them than all the tricks you could possibly learn . Do you ever stop to think that our employees spend more of their waking hours 'with us, under the same roof, than with their families or any other social group?"

It wouldn't sur- prise me if we discovered that most of our not so good em- ployer - employee relations to- day are the result of this cold, impersonal 'THEY' attitude. "Did you ever stop to think that our employees spend more of their waking hours with us, under this same roof, than with their families or any other so- cial group?" Mr. McNab asked the delegation.

"Outside influences affect our employee relations and som.e- times we lose sight of the fact that inside influences. make it possible for the outside influ- ences to exist," Mr. McNab said. "Such employees, when ne- glected, are compelled to form their own opinions about their companies and their super- visors and often these are in- fluenced by hearsay emanating from suestionable and often antagonistic sources both from within and without."
