Breach of Rule 16 We regret te announce that as of Ibis week, The Canadian Statesman will lio longer carry business carda for district lawyers. The Law Society cf Upper Canada bas ruled- that such Items centravene Ruling 16 and ail Iwyers have been asked te, discontinue Ibscustom, although this newspaper bas published business card type adver- tibemnents fer lawyers far many years wlthout such a cemplaint. Apparently, this is a move to pro- tect the pure prof essional status of lawyers, and when the Law Society's Assistant Secretary asks them te with- dr4w their business cards, bis request Is tantamount ta an order ... or tise. Frankly, we think the request or order is ridiculous. Local lawyers are flot advertising special prioes for divorce cases this week nor are they doing anytblng other than listing their names, phone numbers and citing the fact. that they are Iawyers, barristers, and solici- tors open at certain hours cf the day. What possible harm can such informa- tion de to the legal profession or, in fact, the medical profession that is even atickler about sucli details? By listing such information, they in cur- opinion are providing a service for the public, especially new people in the area who may need a lawyer sometime in this coniplex 1f e we lead. Pecuiiarly, there is no apparent restriction to listing almost identical in- formation in the Yellow Pages of the telephone bock. The Taranto Yellow pages list lawyers by name and alse separately by districts. Why is this type cf advertising any different from being listed in a business directory of a news- paper? And just how is a ncw lawyer suppose ta inform the public of his arrival in an area? We shall be sending this editorial along ta the Law Society of Upper Canada in the hope that the esteemed Assistant Secrctary may be able to provide some answcrs for us. Who knows, such attempts at pro- fessional purity may yet rcach the stage whcre newspapers will be me- qucsted ta delete the naines of lawyers defending clients in court cases. Some- how, we doubt if the Law Society will go quite that f ar, but we newspapers niight ta help them protect theinselves. Wash Out Their Mouths With rThe publication of the Munsinger ecomison report last week brought an end, we hope, te the sillineas, tht bickering and political in-fighting that bas been going on at Ottawa for all tee long. t was a sickening expose that added very littie te the public's know- ledge cf the situation. It merely con- flrmed the information that had already been made public and helped ta, cast a further cloud over politici - and poli- ticians in general. Possibly, Justice Minister Cardin may feel vindicated but his victory will be a hollow one ýhat won't do hlm or anyone else any good. It in now long everdue for Parlia- ment te settît down te business and forget this whole affair and ethers that Soap led up ta the Munsinger blaw up. We suggest that members of Parliament look outside those buildings and con- centrate on the things that should be done for the country, forgetting for a while the petty politics that may appear important ta them in their smali world but are of little interest ta the general public. Eowever, so long as there is se much bitterness between party leaders and members, considerable restraint will have ta be exercised or Parliament will be no better than it has been for the past several years. Maybe the an- swer is an old ont, they might wash eut their niauths with soap and start over again. There certainly is a great respect rebuilding job ta be donc. p it e e 1 by Jlm O'NeIl Emitha Fallu Eecord-Xews One day I received ln the mail a maga- zine 1 dd not subscrlbe ta. I also received a bM from my favorite credit card company for the magazine. Wbeft I called up and proteuted the bill, I was informed that tbey had sent mie a letter thepreviaus manth telling mc thiit iethe i tldiAthear-,from me' saying I dldn't want the magazine, I would autoniatically b. put down for a subscrip- tion. 1 threw thxe magazine ln the corner with about 100 other items 1 had beeri sent wlth- out my permission, Includlng books, records, license plates, Indian dolîs, birdcages and Christmxas cards. My wl!e, who la nervous by nature, said *'You've gat toa end It back." * "Who ayasa?" "Tbey do." 'Tbst's haw much yau know. 1 didn't tek for their junk and, rm flot going ta spcnd the postage to send It back ta theni." "WeU, I'm afraid." "Tbey want you to, b. afraid. They ecunt on IL. They're selng by fear," I "I Just know we're daing something wrong. I'm not sure whst it Io but we keep getthng billu from aUl these companles and on. day samebady ha going ta drive up ini a police van anid take us aU away."1 I order te, calm her, I called up a distingulshed local lawyer and, after being assured that he wouldn't charge me far the advice, 1 demanded ta, know my légal uighta in regard ta unsallclted gits. "Wbat do you do whcn soniebody sends you something yau didn't erder and dcmands, payrnent for it or return the produet?" "Nathlng. Yeu don't have ta send It back. Nor do yrou have ta psy for ItL O! course, you can't use It. If you did, that would mean yau agree ta buy ItV' "Can I throw it away?" "You cari after a reasonable anxount of time. But It la yaur duty ta keep the prod- uet for the person in case be cames back for it. You also have ta keep it in gaad condition." "Do you mean ta say if someone sends me a magazine, I can't look at 1t4 but I bave to keep It tri case he cames back for t?"p "Yes, that's thxe law. Of course you cari charge him a storage fee. After ail, you are keeping the magazine for hlm and lt i.s talc. Ing Up space. The more magazines you keep for him thec higher the storage fee you can charge. Why don't you send themn a bil now?" "What worries me though, lu if I don't psy for the subscription, they'll mark me doiwn 43-'a 1oy er#t ri*." '<Good. Then you can sue themn for slander. If you didn't order something anc yau refuse to pay for it, they can't very easily say your credit is bad." The lawyer said that ane of the biggest rackets was campanies' sending out trink- ets under some foundation name and in- dicating that the procedes went ta charity. "About 30 per cent goes to chqrity, the rest goes into the pockets af the sponsors. The whale. business would collapse If people refused ta pay for the product and refused ta send it back." *"0f course," he said, "I go one step further. When I want ta get even witlh someone who has sent me somnethingI dldn't ask for, I take the business reply card or envelope which says, 'No Postage Stamp Necessary If Mailed In Canada' and paste it on the largest, heaviest package the Post Office wlll permit, and send il back to, the -campany. By obligation they have ta pay for the postage en the package. "I knaw it Is a small thing, but I try ta strike a blow for freedom whenever 1 can." ONWARD AND UPWARD Ever onward and upward the race must be run, To achieve for ourselves that great place in the sun, Earthly things held too dearly - it is oh! Such a pity, For here, do we have no continuing City. Sa love, live and be happy, The best things are free, The beautiful sunsets, the sound of the sea, But if you are blest with abundance to spare, There is no greater joy than with others to share. -Marj aie Cunningham - - -- -------_______- - tih an corne te analyz. just how essential is the Canadian Prime Miiter Honored b in service.

Bowmanville, Ont., Dear Sir: May I have the privilege o! making public same facts a! the home-owner's life in Bowmanvilleflot known generally and certsiniy a surprise ta us in the last few weeks. During the summer, a small stream a!o water ap- peared in a crack in the middle a! the street opposite aur house. After somne time someone carne and tested, told us the leak was in aur Uine and ninety dollars wauld have ta be deposited at once before any digging could be donc. At some in- convenience and worry, this was donc. We were tald this only cavered the digging, any repairs on aur property were up ta us. Tbree weeks later, the watcr stiil runnlng down the street and no difference te, the bouse water pressure, the workmen appeare d. Staff on vacation was thxe reason for the delay. In the meantime, everyone was concerned, thinking o! pos- sible damage ini some base- ment or as bappened last year. the collapse o! a neighbour's driveway... this according ta the town experts. was the result of an underground "'spring". It was the source o! this "spring" that bad us wand-. ering! September 13th, the dig- ger came and first dug up aur lawn ... na leak in aur pipe or the lead-in pipe at that end! They then cross- ed ta the north side o! Churcb Street and dug. In the middle o! the road a small leak was found in aur lead ta the main. This thcy fixed but the water stili flowed. A second leak was found on an aid lead an the narth side a! the street wbich had nothlng ta do with aur praperty. We bad aur plumber replace aur pipe on aur property. The hale was then filled in neat- ly by the warkmcn. We have neyer been ini arrears with aur taxes or any Public Utilities accaunt and since buying this bouse have paid approximately $500.00 in water rates and sewage rentaI. We were certainly in error when we thought these amaunts in- cluded maintenance. We werc advised ta refuse ta pay the ninety dollars and fight this matter . . . we were also advised that if we did the water would be turned off . . . with six school-age chiidren in the bouse this was unthinkable. Everyone who has heard these facts has said, "OH NO, there must be same- thing marc. You wouldn't be asked ta pay $90.00 ta re- place town praperty". These are the facts and we wond- ered bow mnany home own- ers arc fuily aware of this aspect a! living In Bowman- ville. A copy o! this letter bas been sent ta the Cauncil. Yours truly, Elizabeth M.

Needham writes a daily newspaper column in Toronto. Quality and content range from high-class to hog-wash, but it is eminently readable. Needham is flot a true humorist, but has a sharp satiric sense, a wild imagination, and a clear view of the ridiculosity of many of our moral, social, political and economic fairy tales. Despite the clear view, he is an incorrigible romantic, a 1966 model Don Quixote who tilts at windmills wîth a typewriter, forces flowers on strange ladies, and thinks of life and love in capital letters. He's a literary burgiar and a bellowing non-conform- ist. Interesting fellow. But he has a couple of blind spots. He hates the educational system and has a blatant contempt for today's young people. Sounds psychological. Perhaps he was turfed out of school, or dropped out, or had some rotten teachers. But he despises the whole business. For him, the educational system is a vast, soul-less monolith, whose sole aim is to crush the spirit of youth, indoctrinate it with ail the wrong ideas, and fail to teach it anythig about LIFE. He's great on LIFE. For him, teachers are a bunch of duli clods, whose only desire is to stuff kids with useless information and promptly squelch any signs of initiative or creativity. For him, modern students are a sorry lot, unadventurous, inarticul.ate, security-minded and materialistie. Well, I'm here to tell brother Need- ham it's time he got into the twentieth i century. His ideas are pure pappycock. Sure, the educational system, 'lu a vast monolith. What do YaU do with 6,000,000 kids? Shove themn inte the streets ta learn about LIFE? Buq it's far froni soul-less. On the contraryoit's composed of men afid women with in- telligence, goodwill and understanding, who work tirelessly ta imprave the systemn for the benefit of the students. Sure, teachers are duli dlodu. Some of theni. Just as somte doctors, Iawyeérs, ministers and columnists are dul clods. But the great majority work their heads ta tht banc, shoving, urgmgt, ex. horting, cncouraging and leading the youngsters ta adulthood. And the students? Are thcy a sad, beaten crowd, cowed by authority, cager for security, afraid to think for themselves? This is what Mr. Needham with bis Victorian view af schools, w~ould have us believe. Hah! A few arc. But the majority are just the opposite. They are rebellious, daring, adventurous, and just busting ta have a whirl at life, as yaungsters have been since the time of Socrates. Riglit now my son, who is 19,' is either hitch-hiking across Canada, on his way home, or headed for Mexico. We'mc not sure. Right now, my daugh. ter who is 15, is belting out folk sangs which she wmote herself, ta keep lier mmnd off her sore cars. She had.$* pierced yesterday, for earrings. ,q And right now, ail over town, 1,200 kids from aur high school are ignoring their homewomk and watching TV, or shooting pool, or gassing on the phone, or falling in love, or iding matorcycles. They're certainly not cowed by author. ity, or squelched by the system, or in. doctrinatcd by anything, except human nature. MacDuff Ottawa Report No Lifetime Con tract OTTAWA-Dalton Camp, the stacky, dynaic and forth- right president of the Na- tional Conservative Associa- thon has at last braught ita the open the subject that has been a private conversa- tion piece in Ottawa for znonths. He has called for a recanfirinatian or other- wise a! present national leadership, adding that na- tional leaders have no life- time contract. Mr. Camp's Toronto speech wbich ha ls repestirig cise- whcre has been taken au apposition ta bis own leader. This is truc. The Tory presi- dent bas neyer tried ta bide bis feeing that Mr. Diefen- baker should step down thougb be bas neyer used bis official positian ta lead a revoit. He took over national directorship o! the Party in 1962 alter an elcc- thon which was the wrlting on the wall for the Diefen- baker government but in the montbs that follawed kept biniseif clear o! open dis- sensions. His outspoken words fol- Iowing closely on Mr. Dief- enbaker's cicar indicatiaon that lie was not stepping down stemmed undaubtedly framn a conviction that the time was ripe ta cross swords with his leader and the resuits will be scen when the Association meets in November. Sa far Mr. Diefenbaker has bcsted ail enemies thaugb bardly in the Lincoln tradition o! mak- ing them friends. He could do so again. But Mr. Camp's remarks wcre not directed solely ta bis awn party and leader. His wards will alsa be heard by Libemals who meet in Ottawa an October 10. The leadership issue may -not came into the open - certain- ly not for the samne reasons that inspire dissident Tories. It wauid be bard ta find a greater contrast in polîtics than the Prime Minister and the Leader o! the Op- position. But for very different reasans and fromn very different matives one characteristic bas dogged bath their gavernments - the stamp o! indecision. Mr. Pearson, unrivaled as a leader In dipiomacy and democracy, finds it difficuit ta force bis will on anyone. Nat oniy bas this quality influenced bis attitude ta bis own cabinet; it bas influ- enced his cabinct's attitude ta, Parliamient. The former Liberal goverriment, mare through te influence of its dominant figre the late C. D. Howe, than that of Louis St. Laurent, was de- stroyed by Its contempt o! Parliament.. The Pearson ,goverriment, if it continues in the direction tri which it bas beeri going, could be destroyed by Parliament. It lu not alone its minarity position in the Hause a! Cammons that bas brought a superserisitiveriess ta the will o! Parliament though as Finance Minister Mitchell Sharp bas said lack o! a strong majority bas led the govemnment ta eniphasize the rcsponsibility o! the opposition. It is a deep feel- in that Parliament meflects te voice a! the people whicb, o! course, fcw Parlia- ments ever bave. The result is that the Lib- eral caucus rather than Cab- inet Is o!ten the dictator o! Governmcnt palicy. The result bas been legislative delay and the appearance of, indecision, neyer seen more cleariy than in the bull're- vishng the Bank Act. Three times the Bill or its main points a! controversy wcre shuttled between caucus and Cabinet before the Govern- ment cauld make up its awn mmnd. To a lesser extent the samne applied ta Mr. Pickersgills transportation legisiation. And even when it bas abtained the blcssing of Liberal members Goverx- ment legisiation is atcn littie more than a suggestion from wbich the Government will retreat in face o! op- position. There are reassuring indi- cations that a change may be in the affinq. The latcst issue is Medîcare.
