Driving a car can be a sin Canadians are killed in automobile at Ihe rate more than ten a day and it has been estimated bat between five and ten per cent the beds in our general hospitals are occupied traffic victims Our highways arc awfully bloody Faulty design ind mechanical failure have contributed significantly to the blood sacrifice exacted from us for the privilege of having automobiles Manufacturers prodded by public opinion and governmental action and probably by their own consciences are showing increasing responsibility In design and making at automobiles Most seem to be men of basic and competence but then is ample idence that some of them do careless work on our cars and trucks But not to put a chick road until it had received personal stamp of approval we would still have serious road When we have said all that there to be said about the makers and maintamers of automohiles we still hove to to terms with The potential donor In our hospitals people ire treated given blood when necessary and hopefully cured But in our blood donor clinics how many of you ire in the lint up of potential donors Everyone between the of IB and citizen or otherwise who is in normally

Cross blood clinic and the body replaces it automatically the liquid portion of the blood within hours the red cells within three or four weeks Thotiswhy for safety sake clinics in Canada are not permitted to accept blood from a donor more often than every three months The most common blood type in North America is and per cent of the have it 4 per cent have A blood per cent have and per

the family can gin to or receive blood another especially if it a rare type Please stop in at your blood donpr clinic Monday June 12 at Holy Cross Church iple Sincerity a frank look Sincerity is always subject to proof John F Kennedy said in the address he gave alius inauguration as President of the A Was Kennedy being Just a little about sincerity Or was he being realistic saying that wc should be iuspiclous of declarations of sincerity and appearances of sincerity He had learned as we all Itam that sincerity is an ambiguous notion an image of sincerity is not guarantee of honesty and integrity Most us have had the experience being conned by slickers who exude sincerity like after lotion The late Lord Thomson the Canadian who became a press lord in once said this with a twinkle in his eye frank brutally frank And when I m not frank I look frank What would you make of that A man being sincere about his own occasional in sincerity As the saying has It Whether you mean it or not be sincere Some expressions of sincerity are calculatingly deceptive And sincerity also has other popular aberrations There is the sincerity the quite genuine sincerity of the fanatic There is the sometimes dangerous sincerity of the person who believes that he along with those who think as he does has a monopoly in some significant segment of truth wisdom he may be intolerant bigoted hating those who disagree with him and sometimes cruel toward them but you got to give him credit tor complete Thin then is the dangerous stnority of tin person who eombmes initiative iking self confident and gross incompetence If you have to do with such a pcrion you learn sincerity can somttimts do more harm than milice But many of us from to fall into tint trip our selves excuse our folly and by inng anyway We sincerely good intentions allow us to be incompetent and foolish in Iheir mustn fall ii which assumes it all of sincerity are deceptive Hut we do need to be ire thit sincerity no matter how genuine it miy be is not in Itself a guarantee of truth never a substitute or knowledge never an excuse for unnecessary incompetence Our sincerity is always subject to proof Gays on wrong track By DON Queen Park Bureau 0 The Herald You may want to turn the page get on with he news Today we are into some pretty remote stuff The homosexual section of the has as ore all aware been much up front these days One of Its drives is get provincial legislation which would bring gays a repulsive word under the Human Rights Code which would mean they be discriminated against in jobs housing and public accommodation and facilities SPECIAL At the root of their case Is that It Is one of the principles of our system that minorities be not discriminated In this light there Is a good weigh in the balance towards the gays case And then there is another consideration one that applies perhaps only to them It certainly apply to radicals and others on the border lino who only arc expressing Iheir views And this consideration is that giving the group protection of legislation by Implication Is giving an acceptance Ana such an acceptance amounts o a public blessing not of opinions but of a way we and practices which deviate from nature and the natural order And which by he bulk of the population ore held in repugnancy varying from distaste to detestation and to which it eertalnly in no way would give Us blessing And when you take a close look at the movement you can easily take it that this acceptance is what it is really after Its spokesmen in give isolated instances of discrimination and actually not very many of these When challenged they cant produce evidence of any widespread discrimination In fact they can even give evidence of strong support for their efforts directly from their own community in fact you have to there is no practical call for discrimination legislation Then these days of course there isn law against the practice of homosexuality So the real motive lias to be that old oriental consideration of face To be taken as full equal and accepted members of the community Full and equal they are now Accepted in by the bulk Iho community And locking any evidence J for civil protection their case ends up as we Finally the gays might consider whether they really l defeating themselves By pressing or rights they can at least to a lot of people be flaunting and their homosexuality and hardening against themselves Just that opinion they ore trying to woo By NEISON Queen Park Bureau Of The Herald One of the toughest tasks in life is to swim against the tide It much easier to go along with the vocal majority especially when you receive no open support On those grounds alone Robert Jackson who is preparing a report on declining school enrolment tor the Ontario

confusingly used the term ii sii dp for national suicide an old Fashioned definition He Is The birth decline will have serious consequences for society For example a smaller prime age work force will have to care for an immense old age population evolved from the baby boom years Only Iwo solutions exist One would sec a large influx of rants from countries of uncontrolled lily in the Third World who would strain Canadian tolerance levels unless adequate planning taken place In lare numbers such immigrants would change the European character of Canadian society a change Canadians must ask themselves if they re willing to accept OTHER OPTION A second solution would Herculean efforts by Canadian women to breed more children and government encouragement of such a policy through methods such as paying housewives to stay home have kids Another hypothetical methods which he tossed out during a press interview was to breed test tube babies although Jackson later said he meant that Those

suppression of unpleasant the most f fact about the abuse heaped on Jackson is that his critics never attacked what he said but that he said it or sometimes validly mid it Questions of ethnic mix and the obvious resulting problems or the predictable lop- heavy old age society evolving are too important to be left to whispering campaigns Who will hold us together Ottawa Of The Herald Ileal aiding Quebec separatists has become the most serious political crime In Canada I wish someone would produce a handy little booklet explaining exactly constitutes this type of aid It getting to the point that if some politician tics his shoelaces in public he Is accused of aiding the separatists And of course if you happen to sneeze during the of Canada you arc obviously on the payroll Bene Things used to be so simple when we just worry the economy and the price of used cars I am not sure how this aiding the ists kick all started but it hit me for the first time when Prime Minister Trudeau said that members of Her Majesty Loyal Opposition presumably this refers to everyone on the wrong side the Commons were ploying into hands of separatists by having the audacity to criticize the government He explained it to a news conference hi way I was just saying in a desire to attack Ihe on everything they the opposition art obviously making mist akes of judgment and their systematic attack on government is playing into the hands of lilt Since the primary role of the opposition is to oppose the government this obviously creates difficultiesfor the Tones and New Democrats But perhaps it all boils down to whether the criticism is systematic This is why a little booklet would be so vaulablc I sec that Tory leader Jot Clark doesn use word systematic when he accuses the governmeni of aiding Quebec separatists Instead he concentrates on altitude He sajs it Ihis of confrontation with Quebec thai results in Tmdcau gov aiding the cause separatism The Trudeau mocks prov jurisdiction it would like reduce them to simple agencies responsible tor applying unilateral federal decisions It refuses In recognize the as legitimate partners sovereign in their jurisdiction and charged like federal government giving life to an authentic federalism former leader Robert is even more blunt in declaring lhai is helping the separatists I wouldn say that Trudeau and arc they dislike each other Ihey need each other A stormy marriage so to speak So now both Liberals and Conservatives are dedicated to helping separatists where ire we supposed to turn for our salvation The New Democrats No lias declared them to be iltinglj helping cause too been systematically the Liberal government particularly over the current sales tax dispute with Quebec Ed is quick to return compliment He says the Liberals ly in almost pathological refusal to see anything good in government We in assume this makes an enormous to separatism When the Tones and the New ire helping the separatists by with on the sales tax Issue he neglects to mention that parties see with Quebec I Claude Ryan The logical conclusion lo reach from this Is Ryan elected to fight separatism is really helping the perhaps our saviour will be Lome the lender of Social Credit who after nearly a month in office I been accused of helping the scparalisls Trouble is he is loo busy stamping out homosexuals abortionists and money lenders Perhaps its only a question I me before some party leader decides that the Remowski crusade is really a boon to the separatist cause And if this we will jus have depend on Toronto Blue Jay fans to hold the country together
