86 King St. E., She Oshawa Times Oshawa, Ontario Published by Canadian Newspopers Company Limited T. L. Wilson, Publisher E. C, Prince, Associate Publisher OSHAWA, ONTARIO, THURSDAY, JUNE 22, 1967 Canada Acts Swiitly To Give Aid -To those who continue to attempt to downgrade our country's role internationally there's surely a message in the fact that Canada has lost no time in making good its decision to send aid to the Arab nations in the war-ravaged Middle East. The dispatch with which this country has acted indicates recog- nition of a valuable role our coun- try plays in foreign affairs while the decision of war or peace may be taken over by the so-called super- powers. It has been demonstrated that our help is direly needed. It is a case of the innocent being left to suffer as a consequence of decisions in which they had no part. And when it comes to discussion of worthwhile contributions to inter- national well-being and the role of the superpowers it is interesting to note that Canada is providing more money than Russia is to provide the Arab destitute with food, As the Vancouver Sun points out, there is an object lesson in the plight of the Arab refugees -- both those of many years standing and those made homeless by the recent war. There is no certainty that this suffering will not continue and be multiplied unless the United Na- tions, backed by the great powers, To Refugees has the strength and will effect a fair and lasting settlement. Mr. Pearson told the Commons that Canada would press for "effec- tive international guarantees for the security of Israel" before any troop withdrawals are made, But this seems a big order. It is foresee- able that a long time might pass before a settlement suitable to Israel -- and therefore to the West ~-- could be arrived at. In the mean- time the refugee problem is not likely to be lightened. The danger is that ethnic hatreds, generated by the susceptibility of these exiles to the politically-moti- vated propaganda of Arabe fana- ticism, will fester until they poison the atmosphere of half the world. It is not too much to urge, says The Sun, that the questions of security for Israel and relief and resettlement for the refugees should go hand-in-hand, or even that the question of the refugees, involving the life and health of perhaps two million people, be number one, This is for Israel's advantage, too. In the General Assembly this is likely to be overlooked as the heat increases. The point is well made. It should be the task of Canada's representatives to keep it in the foreground, Cyclists Pose Hazard A bicycle is not a vehicle of spe- cial privilege in Oshawa or any- where else. Rules have been made for the safety of cyclists and the peace of mind of others using city streets. Because a child is too young and too small to control the vehicle competently or because a teen-ager is too indifferent to rights and risks, the tragedy which can occur is in no way diminished. Aware of the problems inherent in the use of unsafe bicycles and the careless or unskilled cyclist, the Canadian Highway Safety Council has produced a booklet en- titled "Safety Is In Your Hands". In an effort to reduce the number of accidents involving cars and She Oshawa Times 86 King St. £., Oshawa, Ontarie T. L, WILSON, Publisher & C. PRINCE, General Manager C. J.

Youngsters today lack the oppor- tunity for carefree cycling on the thoroughfares of little traffic which were enjoyed by members of other generations. However the auto- motive age is a fact of life with which they must be taught to face and disciplined to conform. Safety programs conducted as public ser- vice by police and service clubs are of value but the education of young cyclists must start at home. Parents who permit their youngsters to ride their bicycles on busy streets before they can handle them with adequate safety and skill are guilty of a serious lack of public respon- sibility. One of the goals attributed to bicycle safety programs is to train better motorists for the future. The Commissioner of the Royal Cana- dian Mounted Police, George Mc- Clellan, was quoted recently as saying: "Just as elementary educa- tion is the groundwork for higher learning so the operation of bicycles is training for the time when the cyclist eventually becomes a motor- ist". It must be kept in mind however by the cyclists that this training is very much "on the job" -- they're learning in the sweep of heavy traffic -- no place for carelessness or indifference. OTTAWA REPORT Visionary Habitat Remarkable By PATRICK NICHOLSON OTTAWA--Expo '67 is prov- ing to be a crowd-pulling suc- cess beyond the wildest dreams of its promoters. Already, be- fore the holiday months, there are long lineups outside the popular pavilions, and these early crowds are between 80 and 90 per cent Canadian. To my eyes, the most impressive exhibit in all the 1,000 acre fair- ground is the good-humoured courteous patience of those Ca- nadian crowds. In two full weeks of steady foot - slogging exhaustion, one might cover the whole of Expo. I have been nibbling with one- day visits to specific pavilions. "Chacun a son gout," as they say in La Belle Province; but my favorites are the Museum of Fine Arts and the British pa- vilion, with palms to the Thai- land and Ceylon pavilions for charm, the Czechoslovakian for intrigue, the Australian for hu- man interest, and Air Canada for ingenuity. The brewers' pa- vilion is a "sleeper", ranking high with children on account of its charming puppet show and with ma and pa because meanwhile they can enjoy a thirst-quenching quaff in the open-air beer garden. The tele- phone pavilion deserves a men- tion for ranking very high with boys of all ages. But in the whole of Expo, whose theme of course is Man and His World, the most re- markable show is that visionary concept of Man's Home called Habitat. This ingenious coim- plex of 158 permanent homes, designed by the young Israeli- Canadian architect Moshe Safdie, is the first physical ex- pression in North America of the mass housing of the future utilizing the economies of mass production coupled with indi- viduality. As the world becomes more crowded, lack of space must de- stroy the joy of privacy within the confines of one's own nalf- acre and the relaxation of gar- dening. But Habitat joins the apartment block's economic use of land with the suburban ad- vantages of gardens and priv- Show acy. To this it adds the foul- weather convenience of shops close at hand on_ sheltered streets, COLORS VIVID Habitat looks from a distance like a jumble of toy houses stacked helter-skelter on top of each other, their smooth con- crete bulk white with reflected sunlight, but vividly splashed with color from the trees and gardens outside each--even on the 12th floor! This higgledy-piggledy effect fs not terraced, because at each level there are projections, Perhaps a more accurate de- scription than 'a jumble of toy houses" would be "an irregular pile of shoe boxes." For the basic unit is a big pre-cast con- crete module in the shape of a shoe box, 38% feet long, 17% feet across and 10 feet high. This contains the minimum one - bedroom apartment; by connecting two or three modules together, larger living units are obtained, up to a four-bedroom home of 1,700 square feet. Each home has its own garden--on the roof of the home beneath it. And on the first storey above street level there is a pedes- trian plaza. The fact that Habitat is the first and so far the only build- ing of its kind, coupled with its small size -- reduced to 158 homes from the original more grandoise scheme for 1,000-ac- & Dy '| ry lg TAIL TWISTING BY REMOTE CONTROL Cop counts for the unec cost of this demonstration pilot-pro- ject. The completed modules, each with full electrical and plumbing installations, were prefabricated at a site-factory and then hoisted into place by a giant crane, at a finished cost of about $30,000 each. But if a commercial project were planned, consisting of say 5,000 modules made from the same site-plant, the unit cost could be cut in three. Habitat offers an attractive pattern for the cliff-dwellers of the future; in this visual exam- ple, Expo has made perhaps its greatest single contribution to planning for man and his world of tomorrow First Telephone Exchange Established In Hamilton By BOB BOWMAN Hamilton has some unusual distinctions other. than its many great "Tiger - Cat" football teams. The first railway sleep- ing cars in the world were made in the Great Western Shops in Hamilton in 1857. Twenty years later the first telephone exchange in Canada was established in '"'the ambi- 'tious city'. Alexander Graham Bell in- vented the telephone in 1874 while visiting his father at Brantford. Two years later Bell sent what might be called the first long - distance telephone mes- sage when voices were trans- mitted between Brantford and Paris, Ont., a distance of eight miles. The conversation was one way only. The first two- way telephone conversation was between Boston and Cambridge, Mass. RECEPTION GOOD In the case of the experiment at Brantford, wires of the Do- minion Telegraph company were used and the battery pro- viding the electric power for the eight-mile transmission was at Toronto, 60 miles away. Recep- tion was clear enough for Bell to recognize his father's voice although he was not supposed to have been one of the speak- ers. H. C. Baker and K. J. Dun- stan acted quickly to make the telephone successful com- mercially by establishing the first telephone exchange at Hamilton on June 20, 1877. Per- haps the most important value of the service was for dispatch- ing trains. However, it was nec- essary for Alexander Graham Bell to visit the new exchange at Hamilton to.help get 'the bugs" out of the circuit. Bell's father - in - law, G. G. Hubbard, also acted quick!y to use the telephone commercially. He had coal-mining interest in Nova Scotia and in 1877 had telephones installed in the col- lieries at Glace Bay. They pro- vided communication between the surface and workers under- ground. The use of telephones in Nova Scotia coal mines led to Bell acquiring a summer home at Baddeck where he played a leading part in the de- velopment of the airplane.

New York, Chicago and Los Angeles are fighting hard against being stifled in their own smoke. But there are days when some of their citizens don't know where their next breaths are coming from. It poses a question that no one can really answer: How long be- fore American cities become un- livable and unbearable because of smog? The more people who live in a given area, the more power they demand in electricity and gasoline, the greater is the po- tential for a smog disaster. Few experts will hazard a Prediction as specific as one made by Frank M. Stead, Cali- fornia's environmental sanita- tion chief, who said that within 14 years his state's air will be taxes beyond its ability to ab- sorb auto exhaust. He wants a ban on all gasoline - powered cars by 1990. All that most experts take te tics on energy consumption in their areas. How much coal, oil, gas and gasoline are burned and vented into the air? Then, when windless weather conditions arise and tempera- ture inversions put a lid on their cities, they know how much smoke each hour is being pumped into the area where they live. When a city becomes unliv- able depends on how much smoke accumulates, on how long before the foul air damages eyes, noses, bronchial tubes and lungs. The weakest--the elderly and those with breathing trou- bles--are the first to feel the sting. Whatever the time element, most cities have some sort of emergency plan--from bans on auto travel and smoke stack re- strictions to fuel--and trash- burning limits. Much of the trouble can be avoided by keep- ing people, especially those with respiratory troubles, indoors or in air-conditioned buildings. In between smog attacks, cit- jes with progressive programs to fight pollution have already taken inventories of their begun programs to force air pol- luters to install smoke-cleans- ing devices and modernize fur- naces to provide more complete burning and thus less smoke. But they are fighting a touch war and the victories are small. In some cases, the energy needs of the population are increasing smoke faster than pollution ex- perts can cut it down. When pollution problems be- come severe, cities stop growing and lose population, and this re- duces the energy-need and the smoke. Austin N. Heller, air pollution chief for New York, attempted to explain how he would build a smog-free city. With the tall spires of Man- hattan rising on all sides of his 14th - storey office, he said: "First of all, I guess, I'd build a horizontal city, not a vertical one. I'd spread out the popula- tion, and I'd put a limit on the height of buildings." He waved his hand at the view from his window and the 8,000,000 people who live there with their 210,000 smoke stacks and more than 1,000,000 cars. 'I'd have central heating fewer smoke stacks to control. d he would rely on hydro- electric plants and nuclear en- ergy to produce the power the city uses. "T'd preclude the use of cars in shopping areas. There'd be underground parking around the periphery of the city, and peo- ple would get around on mov- ing sidewalks or some other -- of pedestrian transporta- tion. "I'd have garbage grinders and flush that sort of garbage into a sanitary sewer system. And then I'd have underground conveyor belts to move dry ref- use out of the city where it can be compacted and buried, a sort of sewer for trash." Meanwhile the air over the cities receives its daily quota of smoke and most often carries it away. As the smokey air dis- perses, the heavy matter falls to the ground as soot and the gases are washed out by rain and absorbed and converted by chemical reaction on the ground. The air comes back fresh again, only to receive still another load of smog from people who only began to care, FOREIGN AFFAIRS ANALYSIS Task For 'Big Two' Not UN By PHILIP DEANE Foreign Affairs Analyst There hardly is an imagina- ble, substantive role for the United Nations in the Arab- Israeli dispute, Canadian wish- ful thinking notwithstanding. Leading statesmen congregate in New York not in search for a solution but because the city is the world communications capital and can best give their words a worldwide audience; it also is as good a place as any for Kosygin and Johnson to meet and only their meeting matters because they are the "big two"' and there are no "'big four." If the big two agree--and an unconditional guarantee of Is- rael's right to exist is the mini- mum to which the U.S. can agree--there really is no need for anything else. Protected by a guarantee against annihila- tion, Israel can take care of lesser threats such as border in- fractions. If the big two disagree, the U.N. cannot act b when not be action by any U.N. in- strumentality against the deter- mined opposition of either su- perpower. TRY NOT LIKELY Only a superpower could con- ceivably coerce the other super- power and neither is likely to try since trying means a world war. And we have passed the stage in which the small powers could form a force to fill the vacuum left by a superpower stalemate. Such small power initiatives turned out to be--in the Congo, for instance--more along what one rather than the other super- power wanted. Neither is likely to allow the formation of a U.N. force that could serve the de- signs of the other superpower. In any case, if the superpower disagr is fund tal more chosen for merit but to satisfy the demands for U.N. jobs by emerging nations. JUDGMENT WEAK Thus, even U.N. secretariat staff work and judgment are weak, as. denionstrated by the precipitate removal of U.N. troops from Egypt the minute Nasser asked. One should not be misled by the continued functioning of a U.N, force in Cyprus; that is less an international problem than an internal Western mat- ter.

"Any girl should be able to get married now," says a woman columnist, "as the woods is full of single men." Come out of hiding in those woods, you miserable cowards, and give the predatory females a chance to catch you. "IT have lived to be 100 by refraining from smoking, drink- ing, dancing and associating with women," says a centenar- ian. This may explain why he lived that long, but it doesn't explain why. It's downright astonishing how much information passes through the average person's head without leaving a trace.

For many years I have been researching the marine history of Lake Ontario, with particu- lar emphasis on Oshawa's lake front history. Several persistent errors were evident in Mr. Forbes' thesis, since it merely echoes misconceptions publish- ed in the "Oshawa Times" on April 20, 1939. As a member of the 'Oshawa Yacht Club" it is only natural that the author would indulge in a little ro- manticism regarding this mys- tery "shrouded anchor'. How- ever, objectivity, compels me to set the record straight con- cerning the theories and niyths that have been perpetuated by this type of article. 1) The anchor was not located by OYC members, it was dis- covered by Messrs. Lloyd and Lyman Gifford in 1934, who let the Yacht Club have it for a $25 donation to help in the up- keep of the Pioneer Cemetery. 2) By no stretch of the imag- ination could the anchor's loca- tion be described as "well east" of the present harbor; it was recovered from only 4 ft.. of water 200 ft. east of the chan- nel breakwall. 3) The schooner '"'Magdala" was not wrecked in the 1860's, but 25 years later on Oct. 13, 1885. The vessel. had been an- chored off-shore west of the wharf for several days, Riding out a SE gale, she eventually dragged her anchors and ran into shore halfway between the harbor and now Bonnie Brae Point, becoming a total wreck on Nov, 4, 1855. It should be emphasized that the vessel was anchored west of the wharf rior to running ashore. The acht C ub 2,400 Ib. "Conver- sation Piece" was located NE of the wharf. ; 4) The theory ,that the "anchor" was lost by the schooner "Flora Emma" is ob- viously incorrect, since accord- ing to the vessel's master, Capt. Thomas Fox, he dropped the "Hook" into "Deep Open" sure; they had to accept U.N. troops. The Arabs are not so susceptible, neither is Israel; on the contrary, it is Washington that feels Israeli pressure through American Jewry. For the reasons given above, the U.N. is not--as we had hoped it would be--a neutral, uncommitted substitute for big power agreement. When super- power stalemate causes a vac- uum this may henceforth be filled locally by the exertion of national power in limited wars. That is what the Arab-¥sraeli conflict teaches. WRITE... water south of the end of the wharf (now the west pier) as the vessel approached the dock, this was standard procedure with sailing vessels, the anchor being used as a brake, as Mr. Forbes suggests. It was also used for hauling the schooner away from the dock into "open water' during periods of unfavorable winds. It would be ridiculous to say that the Yacht Club anchor was located in "deep open" water, the geography of the harbor area would also preclude the anchor lost by the 'Flora Emma" as the one recovered from the shallows by Yacht Club members. 5) Mr. Forbes is correct when he states that pre 1850 anchors had wooden stocks, his reason- ing is obscure, however, when he equates the OYC anchors steel stock as evidence that it is "roughly" 100 years old. All that can be ascertained from the steel stock design, is that it was manufactured after 1850 and not before. With apologies to the Oshawa Yacht Club, I would like to quote a pertinent extract from a talk given by myself to a public meeting of the "Oshawa and District Historical Society" on April 29, 1966. The lecture was entitled: 'Searching for History with Diving Equip- ment', It explains the origin and purpose of this huge espe- cially modified anchor, I quote: "In 1919 a sand filtering plant was situated on a beach just east of the harbor, the anchor with a cable pulley attached was buoyed out in open water. A donkey engine dragged a large scoop out to the buoyed anchor which in turn was drag- ged back to shore Scooping, sand off the bottom, this would be filtered at the plant. The treated sand being used primar- ily in the construction of GM's north plant. Oshawa's mystery anchor could therefore be de- scribed as a "drag line anchor". It has no connection with the large windblown sail- ing vessels of the "schooner days", and at its very romantic best. 'anchored' a sand filter- ing plant. . R. STEPHENSON QUEEN'S PARK Election Date Even Blank For Robarts By DON O'HEARN TORONTO--It seems a good guess that Premier Robarts still hasn't' made up his mind on the election timing. All he will say is that when we have celebrated our birth- day he will give it his: atten- tion. This, of course, is a stall. De- pending on point of view it could cover any time from July 1 to the end of the year. Most likely Mr, Robarts is waiting until he gets the Smith report and sees what is in it be- fore really thinking about elec- tion dates. It appears he is depending on considerable election ammunt- tion out of the report. In the meantime electionver- ing, or at least pre-electioneer- ing, carries on. The premier has an excep- tionally busy schedule lined up for the summer. ATTENDED OPENINGS Even during the session, when normally he would have been in the house, he was out to sorte quite minor affairs, such as the opening of new plants for rela- tively small industries, This was so noticeable, in fact, one wag said: "These days he would probably open even a can of beans for you." There's a reason behind this flurry. A while ago the Conservatives had an opinion survey taken. It showed that while support for the party itself was down Mr. Robarts' popularity re- mained high. And so the party is putting its best man forward. CHANGES AWAITED The next major item of long- term importance for the prov- ince could be announcement of the actual changes out of the Kennedy Round of tariff reduc- tions, It is recognized these will ~have an important influence on the economy of the province. But lacking the exact detail an analysis can't be made 'of what the impact is likely to be. About all that is being said now is that we should end up by doing more business with the U.S. through the lowering of barriers. But segments of our industry could be hurt, and perhaps mor- tally, through the opening to competitors from other coun- tries who can produce nore ef- ficiently. The overall result, of course, should be a more healthy econ- omy in that the industry which survives should be strong and more firmly based. But there will be a bad time for some, TODAY IN HISTORY By THE CANADIAN PRESS June 22, 1967...
