She Oshawa Cimes 86 King St. E., Oshawa, Ontario Published by Canadian Newspapers Company Limited T. L. Wilson, Publisher E. C. Prince, Associate Publisher OSHAWA, ONTARIO, WEDNESDAY, JULY 19, 1967 Solid Confidence Shown In Economic Future Here ! The potential for development of Oshawa and neighboring areas of the Golden Horse Shoe is recog- nized and conscientiously promoted by those here charged with the re- sponsibility of industrial and com- mercial expansion. However their message is always brought more soundly home when it is supported by announcements such as the one made this week by Simpsons-Sears Limited. As Mayor Marks stated, the an- flouncement of plans for a $2 mil- lion department store employing another 300 persons at the Oshawa Shopping Centre, is indeed "a vote ef confidence in the future of Osh- awa". And it is further reinforced by the decision of the Woolco and Steinberg companies to proceed with plans revealed some time ago to start construction of anew shop- ping plaza in Whitby Township. The immediate benefit from the announcements are obvious in the construction industry. The start on building programs of such propor- tions Jate this summer and in the fall will be a definite boon to em- ployment in this industry, Then, upon completion of the new department store and the opening of the new plaza, employment op- portunities will come available for many hundreds of people in the city and district. Simpsons-Sears Limit- ed expects to employ 300 at the out- set. The long-term significance of the plaus for retail expansion becomes evident with the realization that the announcements this week do not represent '"spur-of-the-moment"' de- cisions. Such companies delve deep- ly into the economic potential of the communities in which they decide to establish. They build with the prospects of future growth and de- velopment carefully assessed. They select those areas where such pros- pects are bright. Thus the announcements are wel- come for the business and employ- ment opportunity they offer in the new future and the assurance they give of the long-term economic progress of the city and region. Restocking Great Lakes At intervals for some years the beaches of the Great Lakes have been littered with dead fish. The result has been obnoxious odors and conditions which prevent the use of the shore for swimming. The only benefit accruing from the sit- uation has been that the dead fish provide a cheap source of fertilizer for gardens and flower beds. Speaking at London, Ont., this week William Cleavely, parks man- agement supervisor with the De- partment of Lands and Forests, said a predator with a taste for the ale- wives is being sought as a possible solution to the problem. The prob- elem, he said, seems to be the decline She Oshawa Zimes 86 King St. E.. T. L. WILSON, Publisher E. C. PRINCE, Genero! Monager C.

U.S A. and foreign § Ca a uaa et in the lake trout population which fed on the alewives in the past. U.S. researchers are attempting to stock some of the. Great Lakes with a species of western salmon which woul feed on the alewives. About 30 years ago commercial fishermen were active along the north shore of Lake Ontario. Boats operated daily out of Whitby, Port Hope and Cobourg and returned with lake trout, White fish and other species. The advent of lamprey eels, killed off the trout and the once thriving fishing business pass- ed out of existence. While pollution is still a major problem in many of the Great Lakes any move toward restocking would be a step in the right direction. It will take years to bring the lakes back to what they once were; but there are many who would welcome the opportunity to purchase fish fresh from fishermen. Other Editors' Views Belated Lifesaver It is too bad the Ontario gov- ernment had to wait until there had been tragic highway crackups before it agreed to build a median barrier on the Queensway. It is reassuring that it has now agreed to build one: a chain-link dividing fence that has proved itself a life- saver on Highway 27 west of Tor- onto. It should go up without fur- ther delay. --Ottawa Citizen CASH RETURNS HOME QUICKLY LLANE TT ARE MAI NT 8 Midna EHNA OTTAWA REPORT Wives To Shop By 'Videophone' By PATRICK NICHOLSON OTTAWA--The telephone will soon do it all. The time is fast approaching when every home and office will be equipped with several pic- ture-telephones, each similar to a television set. These will be used to ring up special com- puterized libraries, which on re- quest will provide material for leisure and entertainment, for education and instruction, and for professional and business and general information. In son.e fields such as medical care, this new _ instantaneous service will be beyond price. The next ensuing stage in the utilization of the picture-tele- phone will see it serving as a robot messenger-of - all - wor® Housewives will do their shop- ping by '"'videophone,"' dialling a shop to inspect the goods, ordering their delivery, and paying for them through their computerized bank Then the picture - telephone system will be extended into two other important fields, fac- simile and tele - command. It will operate a facsimile service, so that each house will be able to receive on request a home- printing of the latest edition of the local newspaper. Facsimile will also provide confirmation of travel or hotel reservations, as well as the actual travel ticket. Tele-command will elimi- nate the need for the housewife to stay home to do her chores; she will be able to operater her dishwasher or cook stove, clothes washer-drier from out- side, by dialing instructions di- rect to such domestic equip- ment or to a household robot. HEARD FORECASTS I heard these Jules Verne- like forecasts made by Rt. Hon. E. W. Short, postmaster-general in the British government, when he lifted the technological cur- tain just a little. He was speak- ing in London at the opening of a conference on European co- operation in telecommuni- cations The time when these various services can be introduced will depend upon how soon they can be adopted on a_ sufficiently widespread scale to lower the cost to an acceptable figure. Mr. Short, himself the politi cal boss of the government, operated telephone service in Britain, which is branch of the post office. He suggested the growth of telephone service into these new fields will blur still further the already indistinct line between domestic and inter- national services. In the future, he asserted, the post offices of the world will be in a position, through the telephone systems which they operate, to do more than the foreign offices to draw together the peoples of different nations. This prospect at once raises again the relevant and increas- ingly pressing question: What type of body should operate Canada's telephone service? At present, it is operated in Ontario and Quebec by a pri- vate company--Bell. In some other provinces, it is operated by companies affiliated with Bell; while in yet other prov- inces, the telephone systems are operated by local governments. 'The "videophone" of tomor- row will have several separate lines into each home. Imagine junior using one to help with his Homework; father picking up some international program off a satellite; mom talking to a friend far distant; and Sis watching TV on her cable- videophone. Over the whole hovers the aura of foreign min- istry relationships. Should such a service be operated at the whim of the profit motive? The landline telephone of the past was one thing; quite distinct will be the picture - telephone public utility, with influence on education and international re- lationships. Our politicians are already anxious about Bill C-104, by which Bell Telephone seeks to extend its powers; in view of Mr. Short's glimpse into th future, those MPs_ should consider a Crown corporation to operate and expedite this pic- ture - robot - facsimile - tele- phone. service of tomorrow. Tibetan Refugees Await. Trek Across Himalayas By MYRON L. BELKIND DARJEELING, India (AP) -- Fight years after fleeing their homeland in the wake of an unsuccessful uprising against Peking, tens of thousands of Tibetan refugees still long for the day when they can trek back across the. steep Hima- layan passes. "Even the sick and dying want to go back," says the commandant of a refugee camp established for the aged and in- firm in neighboring Sikkim. "This hope, of returning is re- the only thing keeping them al ive.' The camp's 300 residents, many of them too old and too sick to walk, spend most of their time spinning Buddhist prayer wheels in front of their one-room homes. Inside nearly every home is a snall image of Lord Buddha and a picture of the Dalai Lama, the former Tibetan god - king who also fled to India in 1959 and now lives in Dharamsala, 200 miles north of New Delhi. The desire to go back to Tibet is not limited to the aged Standing on a hillside in Dar- jeeling, the home of 3,000 refu- gees and the headquarters for autour va many relief activities, 16-year- old Tashi Norbu pointed north toward a snow - capped Hima- layan peak. 'My homeland is just on the back side of the mountain,' he said. "Someday I intend to return to it." CLINGS TO HOPE In many ways, Tashi is a typical refugee of the younger generation. As a student at a Tibetan school here, he is busy prepar- ing for a new life in a new country, studying mathematics, science, history and geography, plus Tibetan, English and Hindi. Yet he has not given up hope of returning to Tibet. Early this year a wave of optimism swept the refugee set- tlements as news reports ar- rived of clashes in Tibet be- tween supporters and opponents of Mao Tse-tung. "But now we feel there is no basis for the refugees' hopes to rise,' said Lodi Gyalstan, editor of the Tibetan Freedom Press, a daily paper published in Dar- jeeling and distributed to refu- gees throughout India. "The fighting was just a power struggle within the army and didn't involve the Tibetans themselves." Het nemre enmeN ty) HARD BARGAINING HURTS Latins Lament 'Tangle Of Strings To U.S. Aid By CP Correspondent PANAMA (CP)--The qual- "ity of mercy, Portia pleaded blesseth him that gives and him that takes If funds from the US, Agency for International De- velopment--AID--are a form of economic mercy, some highly - placed Latin Amer- icans fee] the U.S. is twice blessed. One blessing for authorizing AID loans, and another for taking most of the cash right back. These highly - placed Latin Americans are in no way un- grateful for the $10,000,000,000 their nations have received under the Alliance for Pro- gress during the last six years. It is the increasing number of strings and conditions at- tached to new aid that de- presses them. An economist close to the seat of power in one of the larger Latin American repub- lics likens the situation to the difference between borrowing from a friend and from a bank. The U.S., both in the Al- liance for Progress and in statements from Washington's top officials, has repeatedly declared itself virtually a per- sonal friend of each and every Latin American republic, with the conspicuous exception of Cuba and possible exception of Haiti Such internationa) lending organizations as the Interna- tional Monetary Fund, World Bank and Interamerican De- velopment Bank, on the other hand, make no effusive pro- testations of friendship to any- one. A banker's cordial but businesslike nod is the limit of his emotional engagement. OLD PAL IS TOUGH From the international lend- ers, then, Latin American governments except austere bargaining and a bank's pre- cise spelling aut of all terms and conditions affecting any joan. But when Old Pal U.S. holds out for equally hard bargain- ing, the Latin American's emotional reaction is likened to that of a borrower whose bosom buddy says "OK, but first your wife must. cut her clothing bills, and you'd better get your daughter out of that expensive school." Acceptable take - it - or- leave-it talk from a banker. From a friend, punch-in-the- the-nose intrusion Latin Americans compre- hend how the situation has arisen, and concede that noth- ing much can be done about it. With a major war to finance in Vietnam, and prospects of a long, hot summer exacer- bating domestic problems, funds for Latin America do not rate at the top of any U.S. congressman's appropri- ation priorities. In consequence, | the only hope for President Johnson's - administration to get its AID appropriation requests approved is to ensure that as little of the money as possible reaches Latin America. That is, to tie it to purchases within the U.S. U.S. BENEFITS The money is earmarked for paying U.S. manufacturers for their products, which are then shipped in U.S. ships, the shipment being insured with U.S. companies, Latin Americans, skeptical _of the charity quotient in high finance, ask whether AID aids mostly the U.S. manufactur- ers who would not otherwise get these orders, U.S.. ship- ping lines which would not otherwise get this cargo rev- enue, U.S. insurance compa- nies which would not other- wise get these premiums. If the aid were as in.macu- late as advertised, say these Latins, it would reach deeper into the economy of the re- cipient country if that coun- try could place its orders wherever the best combina- tion of price and quality of- fered, then import the pur- chases in its national - flag ships, insured with national companies. At the recent Punta del Este meeting of hemisphere chiefs of state, Johnson did undertake to seek to loosen some of the strings Congress has tied to U.S. aid. His idea is that ts al least some of the money may be channelled into mutual com- merce among the republi¢s which by 1985 are sched to form the Latin Amerjcan Common Market. JOHNSON IMPRECISE Unfortunately, Punta del Este is looked upon as some- thing less than a_ guiding beacon by Latin American economists, Many of them feel Johnson couched his attitude in such generalities as to render the meeting's outcome valueless for solid regional forward planning. Historically, multination#l hemisphere meetings have featured utopian rhetoric from the Latin American dele- gates as they spin a fustian thread of reasoning from no- where to nowhere, while U.S. delegates wait in vain for facts and figures and viable projects. At Punta del Este, by some accounts, the roles were in some degree reversed. The frustrated pragmatists were in the Latin American dele- gations, One such pragmatist has summed up the Punta del Este meeting in a manner not precisely reflecting U.S. reports of a personal triumph there for Johnson. "At least it gave the Latin American presidents an op- portunity to meet each other, and discuss positive propos- als," he says, Look wHarT t CAUGHT , 4 - NUNN WHO HAS HOOKED WHOM? . 'ado Ty FOREIGN AFFAIRS ANALYSIS SOUL ER we " Nikita Put Hex On Nixon? By PHILIP DEANE Foreign Affairs Analyst After next year's presidential primaries and nominating con- ventions, the press will trot out Nikita Khrushchev's savage re- marks about Nixon on NBC, July 11, wondering what effect they had on the American elec- torate. Does it do a candidate good to be hated by the Rus- sians? It certainly will do Nixon good with the crowd that supported Goldwater and now fancies Rea- gan, with the right wing that believes in a_ persistent Com- munist conspiracy to overthrow the American way of life. It is agreed that without the full co-operation of the right wing, a Republican cannot win; the right wing, when its en- thusiasm is aroused, is more susceptible to organizational dis- cipline, more likely to work long hours at stuffing envelopes, ring- ing door bells, distributing hand- bills and using all its economic power to pressure radio and television station owners than any other segment of the elec- torate; the right wing is also more willing to disburse for a candidate it likes. It is clear by now, that the right wing, could be persuaded that it would not win with Rea- gan and that it should support Nixon; his relations with the right are already sound and Khrushchev's remarks can only improve them. But as Goldwater demon- strated, no Republican can win only with the right wing; he needs a broader base; he needs to attract the uncommitted third of the nation, those who shift their allegiance from one party to the other and are by defini- tion in the middle of the road. This group is influenced by the right and the liberals. Will the hatred liberals feel towards Nixon communicate itself suffi- ciently to the "undecided" among the Republicans so as to make lose the nomination or, if he is nominated, to make him lose the undecided of the nation as a whole and thereby lose the election? The standard charges against Nixon--that he is ruthless and unprincipled -- may not carry much weight if he is running against Lyndon Johnson who is also similarly charged. And in fact, even John F. Kennedy was ruthless and unprincipled on the way up, as when he allowed his YEARS AGO 25 YEARS AGO July 19, 1942 Leonard F. D.

This came out strongly in the contrast between Khrushchey's admiration for Kennedy--who made the Rus- sians back down over Cuba-- and his contempt for Nixon. The clear implication here is that Khrushchev does not base his judgments of people on whether they are his opponents or not but on something else; what the something else is Khrushchey told us: he likes statesmen whounderstand world problems and are leaders rather than fronts for their ad- visers, as Khrushchev thought Eisenhower to be.

Political Stability Attained In Laos, By Past Standards By BOB POOS VIENTIANE (AP)--Has poli- tieal stability been achieved in Laos, the land. of the coup and the ambitious general? A foreign diplomat pondered this question and finally said: "IT would say so, yes, if you consider all that has gone on before." That may sound like a cau- tious reply but it is almost wildly optimistic in view of Laos's longtime penchant for switching governments. Another diplomatic source ob- served: 'I'm not saying there aren't people who wouldn't try to overthrow Souvanna (Pre- mier Prince Souvanna Phouma) if they thought they had a sound alternative. But the feel- ing right now is that there simply is no one else of his stature to offer." Souvanna heads a coalition nationalist - neutralist govern- ment. He is a neutralist and his deputy is a right-wing na- tionalist. The third faction in Laotian politics, the Pathet Lao, repre- sents Communist interests. It is trying by force to overthrow Laos's_ constitutional _ parlia- mentary monarchy, and is not in the present government at cabinet level. Establishment of a tripartite government came about in 1962 when 14 nations signed a pact at Geneva. Laos would seem to be living proof that such eombinations don't work if one of the parties is Communist: A few months after the Ge- neva accords, the Pathet Lao, assisted by North Vietnamese, began trying to render impotent the neutralist forces who com- posed most of Souvanna's mili- tary strength. Skirmishing and _assassina- tions forced the neutralists into a firmer alliance with the con- servatives or nationalists. By May, 1963, all the Pathet Lao ministers had left Vien- tiane. They haven't been back since. The three factions held one more meeting -- in Communist territory -- but without agree- ment. Open fighting broke out and has been going on ever since. Meanwhile, Vientiane and other Laotian cities were the scenes of several coups or at- tempted coups. A rightist coup failed in. 1965. ° Souvanna, first prime minis- ter under the coalition govern- ment, was toppled once and came back. Under Souvanna's leadership and through his efforts ta achieve unity the moderate rightists and neutralists have subdued their differences. Working together, the conser- vatives and neutralists have managed to win control of about two - thirds of Laotian terri- tory and maintain influence over about 75 per cent of the people. Two major combined mili- tary operations have had a measure of success. Working quietly be hind the scenes for stability is King Sa- vang Vatthana -- a devout Bud- dhist and enthusiastic farmer. QUEEN'S PARK Healing Arts Committee In Key Role By DON O'HEARN TORONTO -- An important group that has been holding reg- ular hearings without too much attention. is the Committee on the Healing .Arts. The committee was set up last year to study the practice of medicine and associated dis- ciplines. And in the last several months it has heard from a number of different groups. It was before this committee, for instance, that the College of Physicians and Surgeons ap- peared and stated that any doc- tors who ever went on strike would be disciplined. The findings of the committee are expected to be valuable and may have some influences of consequence, One of the main reasons it was set up, for example, was because of the protest that doc- tors from India and some other countries were being prohibited from practice in Ontario. It would be logical to expect it will propose an approach whereby at least.some of these doctors will be able to follow their profession in the province. It is already clear, however, what the main finding of the committee will be. It will be the now-getting-to- be-old story of shortages. For the biggest problem in every field the committee. has looked into has been the same one: a shortage of skilled per- sonnel. We have known these short- ages exist. We know they exist in many other parts of~ the world. And also in practically every other field of high skill today. But by the time the committee adds up the actual record, even though we have known we may still be shocked at the size of the problem. One valuable task it can per- form is to present a truly ob- jective assessment of the future. To tell us whether we actually will be able to overcome the shortage and meet the demand for the medical personnel we ré- quire for proper care. The politicians, of course, tell us that we will catch up with this demand. And university people, and some men in the medical profes- sion itself, make projections which would show that in six or seven years, with the new facili- ties now being built, we will have produced at. least the number of doctors and nurses that we need. But these projections and Promises have to be viewed with some skepticism. Alj of the people making them would tend to be biased, for one reason or another. Only an independent evalua- tion can tell us just what shape we are in and will be in. TODAY IN HISTORY By THE CANADIAN PRESS July 19,1967...
