The Blyth Standard, 1974-05-29, Page 1tie standar BLYTH, ONTARIO. Liberals like Lyndon as candidate PRICE; 15 CENTS For John Lyndon, 54 year old Goderich theatre manager, it was a case of second time lucky when he won the Huron -Mid- dlesex Liberal nomination in the upcoming federal election Monday night. Lyndon was an unsuccessful candidate for the Liberal candidacy in the Huron riding provincial by-election in 1973 losing to Jack Ridell who went on to win the riding, This time with a well organized campaign that saw him decorate the auditorium of the Central Huron Secondary School in Clinton to attract the votes of the approximately 300 persons in attendance. The campaign helped defeat 32 year old Clinton Baptist minister Dwight Strain the only other contestant for the. candidacy. ' Despite Mr, Lyndon's organized cam- paign the result was in doubt until the final moment due to a strong, fighting speech by Mr. Strain, a part-time minister who carie to Clinton only a year and a half ago. The graduate of University of Toronto was trying for his second nomination. He had earlier won the Liberal nomination in the northern B.C. riding of Skeena while living in that arca, though he did not contest the election because he moved from the area before the election was called. He blasted Robert McKinley, incumbent Conservative M.P. for Huron -Middlesex over indifference to the plight of workers at the Hall Lamp Company when it recently closed (Mr. Strain was working at the plant at the time). While he praised Jack Riddell, Liberal M.P.P. for Huron for his concern over the closing he charged McKinley had been too busy with his job of party whip in Ottawa to be concerned with the problems of the riding. it was the only attack on Mr. McKinley all night. Mr. Lyndon concentrated his speech on Robert Stanfield's wage and price controls. Guest speaker Mark McGuigan, member of parliament for Windsor-Walkerville also steared away from criticizing the present member. He claimed, indeed, that Robert McKinley wasn't the issue in the election, that the record of the sitting member didn't count in the election. What did count, he said, was the record of Robert Stanfield. He said leadership was the issue and Prime Minister Trudeau was the only man capable of giving Canada the kind of leadership it now needs. He ridiculed Mr. Stanfield as a man who couldn't even make up his own mind, let alone the minds of others in his party or the country. He said the cornerstone of Conservative policy in the past 15 months has been wage and price controls, but already with the campaign only beginning the party is already waffling on the policy. Mr. McGuigan said that in the final week of the last parliament the disunity of the Conservative party became obvious with John Diefenbaker enunciating a policy on feed grains that was at odds with party policy and Jack Horner, the maverick Alberta M.P. preparing to start his own party. Among those at the meeting were Mr. Riddell, and Murray Gaunt, MPP for Huron -Bruce. Mr. Riddell welcomed some at the meeting who weren't Liberals and blasted the federal Conservatives and N.D.P. for creating an election that was not needed. But he warned that the Liberals had a much tougher fight in this election than when he was elected last year since they would have to unseat a sitting member. He asked for a clean campaign with no dirt thrown. Mr. Gaunt noted that Mr. Stanfield is always talking about intlation so recently. he had checked to sec how inflation had hit Stanfield underwear, produced by the business owned by the Stanfield family. In the past two years, Mr. Gaunt said, the price of the underwear had increased by about 50 per cent. VOLUME 84, NO. 22 WEDNESDAY, MAY 29, 1974. They did it! "Hey, they picked me", John Lyndon, successful Liberal canadidatc seems to be saying to Harold Shore, secretary of the Huron -Middlesex Liberal Association moments after Mr. Shore had announced Mr. Lyndon had defeated Dwight Strain, Clinton minister on the first ballot at Monday night's Liberal nomination meeting. --staff photo. • Separate School Board settles upset with newspapers WI WILMA OKE The Huron -Perth County Roman Cath- olic Separate School Board approved a three-year contract (1974-77) with their custodians it a meeting in Seaforth Monday nig)t. Following a board meeting that lasted about four hours, almost half of which was in committee -of -the -whole, Michael Conn- olly of RR 3, Kippen, chairman of the board, and Harry Hak, Seaforth, chairman of the custodians' negotiating committee, handed the press representative at the meeting the following report: A full time custodian will- receive an increase from $6,900 to $7,600 in the first year 1974-75 which equals 11.13 per cent; second year 1975-76 which equals 8.36 per cent; and third year 1976-77 which equals 7.79 per cent. Hospital and Group Insurance was increased from 66 2/3 to 75 per cent, A cost -of -living allowance is to be paid once annually based on the Consumer Price index. in other business a request from Mrs. Diane DeWinter, secretary of the newly-, formed Goderich Canadian Parent Teacher Association that the board's minutes be more available than they are at the present time, was discussed. Joseph Looby of Dublin asked what Mrs. DeWinter meant by "more available". He wondered if it night mean rather than through the press. He asked if the minutes were mailed and was informed that there was a set charge per page for such copies. Mr, Connolly said he hoped to attend the next G.P.T.A. meeting in Goderich and would find out what the Association wanted. The board supported a request from the newly formed Goderich Arca Consumers' Association to carry out a survey on school lunches of students from Grades 6-13 before June 15 in Goderich and Clinton area schools. John Vinter, Superintendent of Educa- tion, said the Consumers' Association would be making a report to the federal government. Francis Hicknell, RR 5, Seaforth, asked that a report should be requested for the school board. The Board granted a request for the three children of the Singh family to attend St. Joseph's School in Stratford beginning September 3., It was noted that while the fancily is non-Catholic it will be necessary for the children to attend all classes including those on religion. Ted Geoffrey, RR 2, Kippen, chairman of building and maintenance committee, reported that a recent increase in fuel oil by Ross Scott Limited of Brucefield brought the price the board is paying presently to 30.9Q cents, He sad the price had started at 20.90 cents last September, 1973 and had undergone two increases. Mr. Geoffrey said a new contract will be negotiated in August for fuel oil for next school terns. Mr. Geoffrey reported on maintenance work being done at St. Aloysius and St. Ambrose Schools in Stratford, St. Patrick's School, Kinkora; St. Boniface School, Board of Trade to hear ad man An expert in advertising and promotion will be the guest speaker Monday night as the Blyth Board of Trade holds its second quarterly meeting for 1974 at Memorial Hall. R.G. Slider, president of Signal -Star Publishing Limited of Goderich and a leader in the field of weekly newspaper advertising will be guest speaker at the dinner meeting to he held at 6:45 p.m. Mr, Slider, who in 10 years has built the Signal -Star operation into the biggest, newspaper group in the area, is recognized across Canada as a leader in the field of merchandising for small businesses. Also on the agenda for the meeting will be adoption of a new constitution for the Board. Weary leads NDP in Huron - Middlesex Shirley Weary, 39 year old Goderich resident showed she is not weary of seeking a seat in Parliament when she won the nomination of the New Democratic Party for the Huron -Middlesex riding in the July 8 federal election. For Mrs. Weary it will be the third try to win the seat for the N.D.P. She won the candidacy through acclamation. She urged those at the meeting to show the 30,000 voters in the riding that to the N.D.P. "people matter more". Guest speaker at the meeting which attracted about 25 persons was Fred Young, N.D.P. member for Yorkview. He told the meeting in Goderich that free enterprise and competition arc dead in Canada He claimed food, oil, steel and nickel producers have fixed prices to bring profits of an unparalled nature. Instead of putting the blame where it belongs, Mr. Young said, the government has pointed the finger at the wage earner who is trying to catch up with the effects of inflation. contract, Zurich and Our Lady of Mount Carmel, RR 3, Dashwood. Mr. Looby said he would like to see one teacher in each school trained in First Aid. This is to be discussed at the next board meeting. David Teahcn, Stratford, expressed his dissatisfaction with "injustice in reporting, in the wording in board meeting reports in the London Free Press and in the Beacon -Herald of Stratford. Mr, Teahcn said he was satisfied that it was not the local reporter who.was at fault, but in the rewriting of the accounts by the daily papers. Mr. Teahen referred specifically to the last board meeting when a motion was passed to advertise for a supervisory officer and another motion for a special educational consultant. He pointed out the Free Press incorrectly reported, "A proposal to appoint a supervisory officer has been approved" and the Beacon used correctly "to advertise for a supervisory officer and a special education consultant" in first paragraph and in the fifth paragraph incorrectly used "approved hiring" and both used incorrect headings. Howard Shantz, Stratford, said he agreed with 'Peahen's complaint, and added that his request that "my name be in recorded vote as not supporting a supervisory officer" was not followed as neither paper mentioned the recorded votes. PG.2. THE BLYTH STANDARD, MAY 29, 1974. It's field trip time at HuI'Iett Central Public School GRADE ONE ASSEMBLY On Thursday, May 16, Mrs. Livermore's Grade 1 class enter- tained their parents and the other students at Hullett Central, at a spring assembly. The entire class opened the program by singing three of their favourite hymns - Our Father, Standing In The Need of Prayer and 1 Want To Live In A Friendly World. Susan VanEgmond then played a piano solo, followed by a play called The Spider's Web present- ed by Mrs. Smith's reading class. Laurie Bell did a tap dance number, and then the whole class presented A Tribute to Mother, which consisted of two poems and a song. A Hawaiian dance, by Glenyce McClinchey was next, followed by the play, "Why The Robin Sings". The next number was a Maypole Dance, performed by four Grade 1 couples and two songs entitled 'Zippity-Doo-Dah" and "Happiness" ended a very enjoyable assembly program. GRADE FiVE AND SIX FIELD TRW On Wednesday, May 15, the pupils of Grades 5 and 6 accompanied by Mrs. Livingston, Mr. Jamieson, Mrs. Jenkins and Mr. MacLennan took a day long field trip to Brantford. In the forenoon, they visited the African Lion Safari at Rockton, where they saw many quiet animals in the Pet's Corner, and several species of African animals, particularly monkeys, on the guided bus tours through the sanctuary. In the afternoon, they travelled to Brantford where they were conducted through "Telescience 100" and "The Bell Homestead" which are commenorating the Letter to the Editor To The Ratepayers and Residents of West Wawanosh Township: Again 1 question a Report of West Wawanosh Council Minutes that of May 15, 1974. In part it reports that a Petition regarding dust control, Conc. 10/11, signed by a majority of residents of St. Helens Area was presented to Council and was tabled on motion of Rutherford and Foran. Actually, using the South West Corner of the only village block as a dividing point, 55.5 per cent of the signatures were from peti- tioners west of this point to Belfast. These include nine names of people who own property on this road, but reside elsewhere. We appreciate their unselfish support. The remaining 44.5 per cent of total signatures are those of St. Helens residents who deserve the same consideration as the other 55.5 per cent. This should prove the distrib- ution of residents in these areas. The definition of "Tabled" is "to receive, as a report, or petition, etc. but to agree to postpone its consideration in- definitely". It is about what I expected. Does our Township Council realize they are Representatives of those who hold voting privileges and that they are responsible to them, but not a law unto themselves? It is to be hoped that, in the next Nomination and Election in this township, there will be competition. from progressive, concerned ratepayers who will accept the responsibility of running for office and providing us with fair, local government. Please consider this seriously. The township needs you. Dorothy McKinzie Lot 14 West Wawanosh invention of the telephone one hundred years ago. They arrived back at Hullett Central shortly after 6:00 p.m., after an interesting, fun -filled clay. OUTDOOR EDUCATION FIELD TRIPS During the past few weeks, several classes from Hullett Central have taken advantage of the nicer weather to go on field trips to the "Stone Farm" near Clinton, accompanied by their classroom teachers, and Mr. Vince Elliott, outdoor education consultant for Huron County. At the farm they tramped through the woods, looking for, and identifying any spring flowers that were there. The classes which took these trips were Grades, 2, 3, 4, and 8. GRADE EIGHT FIELD TRW "Toronto here we come!" The long -anticipated grade eight excursion to Toronto became a reality on May 9 and 10. The three supervisors were Miss Roney. Mr. MacLennan and Mr. Trcn►ecr. The schedule was very worth- while, The bus left Hullett Central at 8 a.m. Thursday morning, arriving in Toronto at 10:45. The first stop was Toronto International Airport where they were guided around the airport as well as being able to board two planes. After lunch they went to the Hockey Hall of Fame at the Canadian National Exhibition Grounds, followed by a trip to Old Fort York. After that tour, the students boarded. a boat, to have an excursion around Toronto Harbour. Next, after being elevated up 54 flights to the top of the Toronto Dominion Tower, they then walked over to the City Hall. After such a full day each grade eight student was starved for supper, so they all went to the Wallbanger Restaurant. Next they unloaded sleeping bags from the bus into the Deer Park United Church, and before having a good night's rest, they went to see the movie "The Sling" Bright and early Friday morn- ing after eating breakfast in a restaurant called "Frans", .they were off by. subway to the Parliament Buildings, and next they all walked to the Museum for a quick tour. The Planetarium was the next stop, where they saw a film on "Our Solar System" as well as touring the building. This was the final stop and it was back to the bus to return to the school. The grade eight class would like to thank Mr. MacLennan, Miss Roney and Mr. Treniecr for chaperoning their trip to Toronto, an excursion that was worthwhile very educational and lots of fun. FIELD TRIP In connection with their studies of the newspaper, the grade three class, accompanied by Miss Roney and Mr. MacLennan went to the Goderich Signal -Star printing office on Thursday, May 23. Before this, on May 14, .lames Fitzgerald, Editor of the Clinton News -Record visited their class- room and talked to them about the newspaper. i'he children observed the steps taken from the write-ups sent from different organizations to the Signal -Star to the news- paper ready for the public to read. This field trip has fascinated the children and has given them more knowledge on the as- sembling of the newspaper.

This is what Ontario is doing to help you protect it. 's oi 1 ry Most of us get sick or have an accident at one time or another. And left to our own resources, serious illness could often cripple us financially. So the government here in Ontario has developed a plan to provide health care for everybody, any time it's needed. That plan is called Ontario Health Insurance Plan— OHIP. (The "H" stands for "Health,"not "Hospital.") The Plan is administered by your Ontario government for us, the people of the province, who pay into it regularly so we can benefit when we need it. How does the Ontario Health Insurance Plan work? Like this: First, you apply for coverage—on a "Group" basis where you work, or you can pick up an application form at any bank, hospital, or OHIP district office. Next, you'll pay modest premiums to cover yourself and your family towards the time when health bare is needed. People on welfare, students, and others whose incomes fall below a certain level, are eligible for assistance in paying their OHIP premiums. No one is excluded for lack of money, but you must apply for such premium assistance. Benefits include: physicians' services • standard ward hospital accommoda- tion • X-rays • laboratory tests • drugs required in hospital • operating and de'ivery rooms • radiotherapy • chiropractic, osteopathic, and chiropo- dist services • eye examinations • occupational therapy • physiotherapy • speech therapy • nursing and medical care in nursing homes and homes for the aged • Home Care service • ambulance • certain dental surgery. Payments may cover costs entirely or only in part, depending on the nature of the claim. But remember: Membership in the Ontario Health Insurance Plan is not automatic — you have to apply for it. And be sure to carry your identification card or OHIP number at all times. If you would like more information, visit any OHIP district office.

Davis, Premier Acupuncture intrigues health professionals BY DAVID WOODS You've probably heard a lot about acupuncture in the past year or so, but the technique isn't new. The Chinese have been using it for more than 2,000 years. But its use as an anesthetic in China • as opposed simply to a pain killer • dates from 1958. The technique, which consists of inserting needles at strategic points in the body, has enjoyed some success in its country of origin. But nobody's precisely sure how it works, and even the Chinese admit its limitations. A group of Chinese physicians visited Canada in late 1972 and showed dramatic films of comp- licated surgery being performed under acupuncture. But a spoke- sman foto the group said the technique is used as an addition to conventional forms of anesthe- sia. Used alone as an anesthetic its effects can wear off. The advantage of acupuncture over other methods on the operating table is that the patient is awake and the surgeons can talk to him. And there is no side effects. There's considerable disa- greement among western physic- ians as to whether acupuncture really works. Some conceded that though it seems to be effective on orient als, it doesn't appear to be too successful for occidental patients. . Other doctors believe that acupuncture is merely a version of hypnosis • one that works in very few surgical situations, and on very few patients. And still others feel that the Chinese started using acupuncture in surgery simply because they didn't have enough anesthetic drugs. 10 any event, acupuncture is still very (much an experimental procedure. In an attempt to find out more about it nine Canadian doctors and one dentist will visit China in April. When they return, they'll he able to conduct more research into acupuncture - and perhaps to teach others to do it. At present, it's a technique that's ripe for quackery: quickie courses are being offered by non -physicians in Vancouver and Quebec and federal health Mini- ster Marc Lalonde warns that people should avoid non-profes- sional pract loners of acupuncture. Anybody seeking acupuncture treatment should be aware of its experimental nature. Until we know more about it, its use should be restricted to relief of pain, and Moments like these are what the forests of Canada afford us, PROTECT THEM.

One member of the China - bound medical team, Dr. Gerald lidclist of Toronto, says: "Acu- puncture is not only surrounded by myth and misunderstanding, but promise as well.

'Editorial Right city, wrong place it was like one of those "good news, bad news" jokes, The Ontario government was announcing the site for a new, city, and that was good, But they were planning to build the city on 11,000 acres ' in the heart of rich southern Ontario farmland, and that was so sad it was enough to make one cry. The Ontario government has been making big noises lately about saving farmland for farming, but last week it was announcing its plans to build a city for 150,000 people in Haldimand-Norfolk, in a first-class farming area, New cities are needed.ded. They are needed t o help take the grow h pressure off present cities like Toronto, Hamilton, Kitchener and London, all located in good farming areas, But in taking the pressure off these cities, the government has created a new one which will eat up more precious farmland. New cities are needed. But why can't they be built in areas that are not so good for farming. The Ontario government has shown a willingness to take bold steps in the starting of new cities, but they haven't had the guts to think far enough ahead to get us out of the mess we are in, We need new cities in eastern Ontario and in northern Ontario, We don't need them in southern Ontario. How would we feel? A good deal of hard feelinghas been engenderedende red in the Pastw week over the attempts of the Quebec government to ensure that French is the working language in that province. English Canadians, many of whom have not been happy over the dollars spent in the past decade to give French Canadians an equal break in jobs, schools, and everyday living, see the Quebec move as a betrayal of all their own efforts to co -exist. The bill has fanned the flames of misunderstanding again after years of efforts by the federal government to put them out. It is an unfortunate situation, but before English -Canadians get too uptight about the situation they should ask one question: what would we do if we were in the same situation? What would we do as English Canadians if we had only one province where we had a majority? What would we do if we saw even that one province being slowly overtaken by the other language because all immigrants coming into the province were learning the other language? Would we not want to take action to keep this one corner of the country where we could feel comfortable speaking our own language? The Quebec move then is understandable, though not necessarily right, Goaded by the presence of the separatist Parti Quebecois, recent governments in Quebec have made many moves in an attempt to keep Quebec French. Too often, however, the moves have been short sighted. They will solve a problem now, only to create a worse one in the long•run...say 20.40 years from now. The Quebec government has attempted to make Quebec a homeland for French-Canadians, a cultural and spiritual headquarters for the French factor, More likely, it has created a French guetto, The federal government, instead, has used the farsighted plan for keeping French viable in Canada. The government has •set in motion plans to make it possible for French Canadians to live anywhere in Canada and still be French, not English. It's a tough battle to win, especially at the beginning. The federal government is trying to turn around 200 years of tradition. But it is making progress. If successful, the federal government would not only preserve French, but would promote understanding. Getting more French Canadians living side by side with English Canadians and yet still • keeping their culture and language would be an outstanding breakthrough for Canada. Suddenly, we would be able to understand each other better. You would see more English Canadians becoming bilingual (it's pretty hard to learn to speak French these days when you never have anyone to speak to in French). We would have a real French -English partnership. Let's hope the short-sightedness of the Quebec government won't hurt the dream of a better Canada as promoted by the federal government. 25 cents per hour The CTV W5 television program Sunday night dealt with a government program that has Indians in northern Ontario producing handicrafts....at a price that makes them about 25 cents p,:r hour. The TV journalists must have felt that this was disgraceful, but they shouldn't have really been surprised...if they had ever looked at the farming scene and how government programs have "helped" farmers over the Fars. The government has spent millions over the past he' -century to educate farmers to better habits but all that has really resulted is that hundreds of thousands of farm people have been driven off the farms and into city factories. Those that remained have invested thousands of dollar9 and in many cases have ended up earning wages not much higher than the Indians. It just shows that too often the government, instead of really helping, makes more of a mess. Sadly, we just have too much government for our own good. standard KEITH & JiLL ROULSTON Co -Publishers Published every Wednesday at . Queen St., Blyth, Ontario.

BY BILL SMILEY This week i'll deal with several topics, none of them related, but each of them an aspect of the peculiar world we inhabit in 1974. Why do so many young people want to go into teaching? There's no real future in it financially, very little hope of finding a job after teacher training, and oily an infinitesimal hope of becomink important famous, or even notorious. Yet teachers' colleges keep pouring out thousands of eager and talented young people with a flaming desire to be teachers. We had two openings for English teachers on our staff this year, and received a pile of applications up to your knees. And these aren't duds, who have been weeded out of the profession because of incompetence. They are the cream of the crop, highly qualified, many with some yeas of experience, some with extra degrees. There's a certain amount of security in a teaching job, and the holidays are pretty good. But if you want security, go into the bank, and if holidays are your chief concern, go on welfare. Teaching has its rewards and satisfactions, but it's a wearing, grinding life, physically and emotionally. 1 feel sorry for all those excellent young people trying so desparately to get a toe -hold in the profession, 1 wouldn't suggest to my worst enemy that he (or she) go into teaching. It would be the equivalent of saying: "Get thee to a nunnery", Strangely enough, i like it. But then, I got into the game back in the days when there was a frantic shortage of teachers, and they were taking any old scruff who could stand up in front of a class. Now, the election. If those idiots in Ottawa think anyone is happy about it, they're as far out of touch with public opinion as usual. The Liberals have had two shots at it, and have proved little except that they can't do much about anything. Their policy seems to be to cover the wounds with talcum powder when the patient is bleeding to death. The Conservatives, in the last eighteen months in opposition, have not exactly set the House on fire, which might be the best and only way they could get the attention of the electorate, The NDP has had the best of the deal iA the last parliament, letting the Liberals pull their chestnuts out of the fire and squelching any possibility of a Tory blaze by voting with the government. The party has shown more politics than statesmanship, and an almost repulsive enjoy- ment of power. This time around we need more than a shurg, a mumble, or a smarmy washing of hands. We need a government with the guts to govern. And the chances of getting it from the talent on display seems minimal, Personally, I'd vote for Joe Stalin if he could do something about inflation, and I'm sure enough other people would to put him in the P.M.'s chair, Last week I chanced to look at the price of a small can of bully beef. Seven ounces, 82 cents. This means roughly, that a pound of that smashed -up mess of meat, gristle, fat, and the odd bit of bone, from third rate cattle, costs about $1,85. There is something rotten in the state of Argentina, I am utterly appalled by our grocery bills, and can't help thinking that there is a grand rip-off in there some where. The farmers aren't getting it and the chain stores claim they aren't, But someone is. My heart bleeds for the large family on a low income, The working man demands higher wages and is not even holding his own when he gets them, We're headed for a depression, chaps. Your dollar of a couple of decades ago is worth fifty cents today, and r. ay be worth forty cents next week. Now I'll turn my attention to something closer to home, And. closer is the word. I can hear my grand baby from all the. way downstairs, bellowing with brazen lungs for his dinner, He's a bonny baby. In fact., I say without prejudice that he's the handsomest boy 'baby I've ever laid eyes on. Huge dark eyes, and a grin that would melt a Mother Superior. But his mother has some odd ideas. She has same good ones, too, like feeding him mother's milk, on which he is waxing into a butter -b all. However, she wants to bring him up the way the Indians and Eskimaux do. Pick him up when he cries; feed him when he's hungry; play with him when he's bored, Never speak crossly or punish. He's a "good" baby. Sleeps a lot, chuckles a lot, kicks a lot, plays with his hands, When his mother is around, Twice in the last three days I've offered to baby-sit, while his Mum went to a show. No problem Baby sound asleep after a good solid dinner from the twin founts of life. And if he does wake up, ole Grandad can always amuse him with songs and witty sayings. Thirty minutes after his Mum is out of the house, he wakes up. With bated breath I hear the first bleat. With despair I hear it build to a full-throated bellow that would suggest the imp is being martyred at the stake by the Iroquois. Pick him up, dandle him, jig him, sing to him, talk my version of Chinese to him, always a great hit when Mum's around. No dice. He wants grub, and I ain't plumbed right for it. An hour and a half of torture, changing diapers, blowing on his belly, kitching and cooing. Nothing works. His Mum comes home, whips out the equipment and the little devil is asleep in ten minutes and sleeps all night. So, Here are my predictions. Another minority government, a major depression, and a spoiled kid. WE SAVED ITS • Ziff, 3oey! ALL IT NEEDED WAS A LITTLE WATER AN' SOME LOVIN' CARE!

(11URON.BRUCE1 The Ontario Medical Association com- plained this week that proposed legislation would force doctors to live under a "lingering threat" of a malpractice suit for years, when they appeared before the Standing Committee of the Legislature on Social Development studying the Health Disciplines Act. THE BLYTH STANDARD, MAY 29, 1974. PG.S. The present law in Ontario allows a patient one yoar in which to sue a doctor for negligence. Bill 22, the Health Disciplines Act 1974, not only extends this to two years from the time the doctor's services to the patient ended, but also allows further, indefinite extension by the courts. Doctors have objected strenuously to the discretionary powers given to the courts to extend the limitation period. This would have the effect of forcing members of the health disciplines to labour under the lingering threat of suit by disgruitled patients, even many years after they have had professional contact with them, The Ontario Government has paid $22 million for about 11,000 acres of land optioned by a consortuim of developers as the site of a city of 150,000 to serve the Nanticoke industrial development on Lake Erie, about 30 miles south of Hamilton. Mr. White, Ontario's Treasurer, said it was cheaper to buy up the options the group held than to acquire land at another site recommended last year by a Government report. The developers will not make any money, to speak of, on the assembly of • land. The developers will make some money in selling 298 acres, the only portion of the site they own outright, to the Government at $1,944,00 an acre, This land teas purchased for something over $800 an acre, so the profit on this land is almost $341.00 an acre. Debate on the Land Speculation Bill has been prolonged, to say the least, and is still under way. The Bill undergoes some amendment by the Minister, or proposed amendment by the Opposition, on every section, The latest section to be dealt with concerns farmers with the Oppo4ition proposing that farmers be exempt from such tax. That was rejected by the Government. The Bill presently exempts farms when sold to members of the family for farming purposes, The Ontario Government has decided to assist victims of the recent flood in the Cambridge - Brantford area by matching dollar for dollar any money mat is raised locally. A local committee will be set up to raise money to distribute assistance to those hardest hit by the flood. The nation New series of experiments probes Arctic icefields A New Seris of manned ice station experiments will be carried out next year in an area north of Alaska and the western Canadian Arctic by teams of United States and Canadian scientists. Details of the project were explained at a 'Polar Oceans Conference" at McGill University this month by C.A. Hunkins, of, Lamont -Doherty Geological Observatory, Palisades, N.Y. Some 100 scientists from a dozen countries attended the sessions. The planned ice experiments which will rt': for 16 months starting in February, 1975 will be conducted on four ice stations arranged in a triangle of about 60 miles (100 kilometers) from corner to corner in the Beaufort Sea. The ice stations are simply a series of temporary research camps set up on arctic ice floes, Prefabricated structures and tents are flown to the flocs to provide shelter for men and scientific instruments during the long months of severe weather conditions. The Beaufort Sea location of the upcoming experiments was the scene of similar mission in 1972; Japanese scientists participated in this project and the arca was also visited by interested Russian scientists - old hands at setting up ice stations. The large scale international studies of arctic ice that are now under way, come under a program called Arctic Ice Dynamics Joint Experiment (AIDJEX), which started in 1969 following meetings by university and government groups in Canada and the U.S. The experiment is funded by the National Science Foundation in the U.S., the U.S. Office of Naval Research, Canada's Polar Continental Shelf Project, and the federal Department of the Environment. A central headquarter is maintained in Seattle at the University of Washington, where a data bank is used to co-ordinate the project's many logistic and adminis- trative efforts. The current experiments will be conducted on "ice flores" as opposed to "ice islands." The latter arc giant slabs of ice and gravel and other debris hundreds of feet thick. They are formed when old ice formations break off the edge of the mainland and float out amid the drifts. Such islands make very stable ice stations, but they are relatively rare occurrences, The Americans still operate one in the Beaufort Sea • called "T-3". And two years ago the Russians claimed one of their manned "ice islands" passed right over the North Pole. (Several Russian speakers were sched- uled to address this month's McGill meeting, but they cancelled out at the last minute, and mailed their papers to the conference.) The advantage of the ice floes for this experiment is that they are a more typical arctic phenomenon, and tracing their movements will give scientists a clear idea of ocean currents. There arc -problems associated with them, however. They arc often only about six to 10 feet thick and they occasionally break up, forcing the men on them to flee to more stable positions. "The U.S. had to move some of its men from a floc a few years ago," explained Dr. Hunkins, an expert on physical ocean- ography and ocean currents. "We had cracking right under the camp." Dr, Hunkins said that the ultimate goal of the AIDJEX experiments is to be able to produce a theoretical model of ice behavior, one that would help scientists forecast the drift of the ice and its effects on the environment. Interest in the Arctic Ocean has grown in recent years •- the result of oil discoveries in Alaska and the Canadian Arctic. More data on ice will be of use to eingineers studying the possibility of arctic shipping and the situating dfoil rigs in arctic waters. The first pilot AIDJEX project was conducted in 1970 with oceanographic studies carried out by groups from the University of Washington, and in 1971 the Lamont Doherty Geological Observatory of Columbia University became involved. "The AIDJEX pilot program of 1972 was the largest and most complex project ever undertaken by the U.S. or Canada on drifting ice," explained Dr, Hunkins. "More than 80 persons -• Canadian and Americans -- were actively involved in scientific projects on the pack ice," "These stations in a 100 -kilometer triangle were manned for seven weeks and their drift was tracked with satellite navigation equipment. The stations drifted westward about 100 kilometers during the period, "A peak drift speed of 22 kilometers per day was noted during one storm". In the planned experiments a ring of automatic data buoys will encircle the manned network of ice stations at a radius of 300 to 400 kilometers. Their instruments will measure such things as temperature, salinity and depth. One of the discoveries of the .1972 experiments was the existence of "eddies" in the Arctic Ocean. These appear to be disc-like water masses rotating either clockwise or counter clockwise. "Instabilities along the oceanic front north of Alaska are belived to be the origin of the eddies," said Dr. Hunkins. "They are analogous to atmospheric weather systems, and may play a important part in exchanging heat and salt between the polar and temperate oceans in the northern hemisphere." As Dr. Hunkins and other scientists pointed out at the series of meetings, ice movements and climatic activity in the Arctic and Antarctic have a profound influence on the oceans of the world. "Some have suggested that the ice cover exerts a'significant effect on world climate with its presence or absence linked to oscillations between glacial and inter- glacial periods," said Dr. Hunkins. "The stability of the ice pack is not known, Since the ice cover is so fragile, it could be removed by natural or artificial means. The effect of such a removal is disputed. If stable, the ice would reform the following winter. If unstable, the removal might be permanent with ensuing world changes in climate. "The differencesof opinion on this subject highlight our present lack of knowledge about fluid earth processes in the polar region," The scientists appear to have their work cut out for them. While not as well publicized as that of lunar and space exploration, the study of polar oceans is a field that holds promise for some exciting Lturc scientific work for Canadians and AMericans. -Montreal Star The world Canada's aid in producing India's A-bomb still not known Amid the political and diplomatic furor which erupted last week following India's detonation of a nuclear device, two main technical questions have emerged, The first is: can Canadian nuclear power technology in itself contribute• to the development of a nuclear bomb? The second: did Canadian technical assistance to India in fact do just that? Canada's involvement with India's nuclear activities began in the late nineteen -fifties, when this country gave India the Cirrus research reactor as part of its contribution to the Colombo Plan, Later, Canada helped build a two -unit power station at Rajasthan, using the CANDU technology pioneered here. Moreover, most of India's nuclear experts were trained in Canada. However, technical experts from Atomic Energy of Canada Ltd. point out that the waste products from the CANDU reactors cannot be directly used for bomb making, that the technology required to reprocess these wastes was not acquired from Canada, and that the training provided by Canada was very specifically related to operating power stations. G.L. Broods, assistant general manager for engineering at AECL's Sheridan Park lab, said that this training could not "in any very direct sense" • be transferred to building bombs. "A bomb is a very different k nd of animal. There is minimal common technology." Canadian officials are still uncertain whether the Cirrus research reactor actually provided the raw material for the Indian device. D.G. Hurst, president of the Atomic Energy Control Board, said this is a reasonable assumption, but there is no certainty about this. AECL experts agree that the power station at Rajasthan could not have contributed the plutonium used in the bomb. "it hasn't been going long enough to produce any significant amount of plutonium," said Dr. S.H, Russell, assistant general manager at Sheridan Park, the man there in charge of collaboration with India. Moreover, he pointed out that the waste products from a CANDU power reactor are not ideally suited to making bombs, The CANDU reactor burns natural uranium as.a fuel; this uranium consists primarily 'Of non -fissionable uranium -238. About seven - tenths of one per cent of the fuel is fissionable uranium -235. The splitting of U-235 to produce energy generates neutrons which can be absorbed by U-238 in a process which creates plutonium. Spent fuel from a CANDU reactor can contain up to about three grams of plutonium per kilogram of material. Before this plutonium can be used for a bomb, it must be chemically extracted and reprocessed into a purer form. Canada used to have a small pilot reprocessing plant at Chalk river, but it has been closed for many years and this country has not pursued this technology. India, on the other hand, has a full-fledged reprocessing plant. Dr, W.B. Lewis, AECL's retired vice-president for science, said India got this technology largely from Britain and France. But he added that any country with "time and textbooks" could acquire this technology. "There's quite sufficient information on the extraction of plutonium in the open literature." Mr, Brooks and Dr, Russell said that the CANDU power reactor is not really suited to producing rpw materials for bombs, because reactors designed to generate electrical power run for long periods of time. The result of this long operating time is that the plutonium is the spent fuel contains ever-increasing concentrations of the isotope plutonium -240. This is not the ideal isotope for producing bombs, although Mr. Brooks • commented that "this is not to say it's not theoretically possible to build a weapon. But it's not as gond a material as others." To produce a better grade of material for bomb -making from a CANDU reactor would require pullling the fuel out before there is too great a build up of plutonium -240. But this is a tremendously uneconomical way of using the reactor. "You would be refuelling the reactor at one hell of a rate," Mr. Brooks said. Dr, Russell said this would mean shutting down the reactor frequently for refuelling. The CANDU reactor can be refuelled while it's still running -- and important economy feature—but Dr. Russell said the "capability of the on -power refuelling machinery is not good enough" to do the fast refuelling required to produce weapons -grade plutonium. The AECL has a "reasonable idea of India's use of their refuelling machinery" and believe it is still int he testing and commissioning phase. Mr. Brooks said that the Cirrus research reactor does not have this on -power refuelling feature and must be shut down for refuelling anyway. "in a research reactor, you tend to leave fuel in for a shorter amount of tints," he added. In 1963, Sheridan Park began to train Indian technicians how to design, build and operate CANDU reactors. "There was nothing that was directly related to weapons research," Mr. Brooks said. Dr, Russell said there have been no Indian technicians training at Sheridan Park for the past two or three years.

THE BLYTH STANDARD, MAY 29, 1974, Plans for addition to Goderich school approved by board BY WILMA OKE The sketch plans for the addition to and the reconstruction of Victoria Public School, Gode- rich, were approved by the Huron County Board of Education at a meeting in Clinton 'Tuesday afternoon, May 21. The approval is subject to acceptance of the plans by the Ministry of Educa- tion. The project includes dem- olishing the original two-storey building erected in 1910 and retaining the 1949 portion which includes the plain front entrance, which will be revamped to meet the fire marshall's requirements, also the six existing classrooms adjacent to it and the six classrooms on the second floor, are to be retained. The gymnas- ium and stage area are to be retained. There will be a new staff area -general office, principal's office, staff office and health facilities; music room; change room; and home economics and industrial arts room. On the second floor will be the new library and two classrooms. Brian Garratt architect, of the firm of Kyles, Kyles and Garratt, Stratford, said when presenting the sketch plans, the two classrooms could be opened up to make an enlarged library re- source centre if the class rooms were no longer needed because of declining enrolment or if a larger library was needed to meet an increased enrolment. He said the lib'..try was in a central position, convenient to all areas of the school. The other new area is the kindergarten and the four class- rooms to accommodate the trainable retarded pupils, The latter group, numbering 26, are enrolled at Queen Elizabeth School, in the former S. Peter's Separate School in Goderich, and is rented from the Huron -Perth County Roman Catholic Separate School Board. Mr. Garratt said the new addition would have the same type of brick and would be very compatible to the remainder of the school. The Board approved having work started on construction of the new boiler roost and the electrical hook-up as soon as the go-ahead is given by the Ministry. Mr. Garratt explained the present heating system is housed in the part to be demolished and he would like to see work on the boiler room started in about six weeks and completed by September 1. The remainder of the project should have Ministry approval of final plans by August 1, tenders called by September 1 and construction underway by October 1. Mr. Garratt said he expects it will be possible to have the mechanical equipment for the boiler room available by August 1 and installation completed by September 1. A new chirnney--a metal stack --will be erected as it would be more costly to bring old brick stack up to present standard. Mr. Garratt said the new Home Economics and industrial arts room will be the second in the county for elementary students. The other is in Seaforth. Grades 7 and 8 students at Holmesville Public, Colborne Township Pub- lic; Brookside and Roberton Memorial School will be bused to Victoria School for classes in home economics and industrial arts. The estimated cost of the project is $729,000--$575,000 for the 500 elementary pupils at Victoria and $154,000 for the accommodation of the trainable retarded pupils at Victoria. Elementary pupils from Grades 1 to 6 are taught at Victoria. At a special meeting of the Board on May 6 (press not notified about sleeting) it was resolved that the pupils during the construction period would be accommodated in existing spaces in the school and the Board would not become involved in the rental of portable classrooms or temporary accom- modation elsewhere in Goderich, In other business at that special sleeting on May 6 the Board approved establishing library facilities at Blyth, Brussels, Colborne, Grey and Turnberry Public Schools by renting five portable classrooms, and provid- ing teachers for them on a half day basis. The necessary furnish- ings for the library facilities will be purchased, In other business at the meeting Tuesday, Sherwood Eddy was appointed head of the Eglish department at South Huron District High School at Exeter on a probationary period of one year, effective September 1. He was the acting head of the department. Mrs, Eleanor Louise Richman has been appointed acting head of the Mathematics department at Central 1-1uron Secondary School. Herbert Turk - helm, chairman of the Education Committee, reported Gordon Wray a student at F.E. Madill Secondary School at Winghant had ranked 15th in the across Canada Mathematics contest. Seven requests from principals for field trips were granted: 19 Grade 8 students from Tui nberry Central Public School to the Wingham arca from June 5 to 7, no supply teacher required; 45 Grade 7 and 8 students from Zurich Public School to Camp Sylvan, from June 5 to 7. Only cost to Board. transportation DELSEY costs of $70; 45 Grade 10 Science Students from South Huron District High School to Pinery Provincial Park May 31 to June 1, no supply teacher; 25 Junior ()titers from South Huron District Fligh School to Bruce 'frail then canoe to Lake Huron, from .lune 22 to 26, no supply teacher; 37 Grade 11, 12 and 13 students from South Huron District High to Montreal and Quebec City from May 30 to .lune 2, no supply teacher; 55 students, members of Girls' Trumpet Band at Seaforth District High School to Inkster, Michigan, from May 26 to 27. Cost of 'trip charged to school budget, transportation $363 and accommodation $300; and 33 Grade 8 students from Hensall Public School to Camp Sylvan 1'run1.1one 3 to 5. Fifty per cent of costs will be charged to school budget plus the cost of a supply teacher for three days. The Board, in receipt of a copy of the Village of Zurich secondary phos, prepared by the Huron County Planning Department, will write a letter to the Planning Department asking that in advance of having an official plan passed to consult with the Education Board. In the Zurich report it is stated that there is excess capacity at present and should there be expansion required there is ample space at the existing site. Herbert 'I'urkheinl of Zurich challenged the statement of "ample space", and the Board \vitt notify the Ministry of Treasury, Economics and Intergovernmental Affairs that any population explosion in the Zurich arca would, int he Board's opinion, render the present school and school site totally inadequate. The site comprises 2.2 acres and houses 184 pupils, • Mr. Turkheint suggested that with a population explosion in Zurich arca some of the rural students east of Zurich could be bused to Hensall where there is a declining enrolment. He said that when the Huron County Planning Department is preparing official plans across Huron the Board should be consulted prior to completion. Mrs. K. Pletch of Walton was granted a one-year leave of absence, A request from Clive Buist, Director of the Recreation Committee, Seaforth, for infor- mation as to whether the Board has any plans for the develop- ment of track and field at The Seaforth District High School, was tabled. It is to be reconsider- ed in September when the Board deals with its 5 -year capital forecast, The expense of such a project is not included in the 1974 budget.

Reports were then heard from the various local committees. Mrs, Mundell reported for service to patients. Dressings and requir- ed medical supplies were given to patients. Visits were made and gifts and flowers given to bed patients. She expressed thanks to the society, to all individuals, clubs, and organizations who had donated gifts and money for the use of patients attending clinic. Mrs, Lloyd Montgomery, tran- sportation chairman reported trips made to London and to Wingham clinic with patients, Mrs. D.S. McNaughton report- ed that since January 1966, an average of 22 clinics a year and 656 consultations were held at the Wingham Clinic, Two schools participated in making posters and 10 prizes awarded, courtesy If the lyceum Theatre. Richard Campeau and Ross Procter was co-chairman and organized the coverage of the arca.

An additional full time teacher will be engaged for the Queen Elizabeth School for the Trainable Retarded in Goderich and an addition half time teacher be engaged for the Golden Circle School, Wingham, effective Sept- ember 1. Enrolment at Queen Elizabeth is currently 27 (21 full time and 6 half time) with a staff of 3 full time teachers. At the Golden Circle School for the Trainable Retarded the enrolment is currently 20 (14 full time and 6 halt' time) with a staff of 2,5 full time teachers. The addition will require the rental of an additional classroom at Queen Elizabeth. Rental is $25 per room per month from the Huron Perth County Roman Catholic Separate School Board. Robert J. Campbell of R.R. 1, Seaforth, will have his proposal for contract masonry repairs on all county schools accepted. Five contractors were asked to submit proposals and Mr. Campbell was the only one who did, The position was advertised last year and no one applied. John Henderson of Seaforth asked that the position be advertised again but R.B. Dunlop, Business Administrator said the assumpt- ion was that if it was tendered again there would be the same result as situation was the sane, He estimated there was about $10,000 work involved. Mr, t- ienderson's motion was defeated. Mr. Campbell's proposal includes; work to be done on a time and material basis, when he leaves his shop and -end at night when he finishes work for the day.

We're Celebrating our 80th Anniversary 1 Eighty years is a long time! This family tradition began in 1894 by Allan Bert Bainton, Frank Bainton Sr. and their sister jean 13ainton. Our memory of years gone by recalls that many old established wool and leather businesses have gone due to various reasons - foreign competition, competition from synthetic and man made fibres, financial problems etc. The belief which our predecessors had in the future of the wool and leather business,still exists in the management of to -day. We must give credit to the originators for instilling this belief in us. We recall many other problems and difficulties that have been overcome through the years to continue this wool and leather business - the oldest in its field in Canada • Our Heritage Come to our authentic Old Mill in Blyth (at the railway tracks) and see why after 80 years, Bainton's is still making a name for itself in the wool and leather business.

SERVICE I8 A$ CLOSE AS YOUR ■rR:i+ igo: I6LEPBONE DRUGS DRUG SUNDRIES VETERINARY MEDICINES Hire -a -Student Week scheduled June 2-8 "Hire a Student Week" - this is the campaign being promoted in this arca by the student place- ment office at the Canada Manpower Centre in Goderich for the week of June 2'-8. The officials of 'the towns, townships, and county, the ministers and news media have all been contacted to gain their support of the program and Mr. Walden says that the response from this group to the project has been excellent. Because of this enthusiasm, he is anticipating a busy week from the employers who will be placing orders with him to hire students. lf'this is the case, Mr. Walden feels there should be plenty of jobs on hand for the high school students when school is over for the year. A big advantage gained by the employer in using the student placement office is that there is a wide selection of students from their community on file, ready for work, to choose from. At present, there are around 200 males and 200 females registered. But Mr. Walden doesn't want the regist- rations to stop here. He would like to see even more students on file, because the employment picture looks very good this year. To date, 72 university students have been placed in jobs which has left very few university students on file to refer to the job vacancies starting before high school is out for the term. If this trend should continue, then the high school students will have no trouble getting suninier work. So far there has been an excellent balance between orders received and students available. Mr. Walden hopes this will continue. On May 1, the student placement office hired an assist• ant, Miss Jane Clancy, who has been working with Mr. Walden. She has contributed greatly thus far to the success of the office in placing summer students. In conclusion, Mr. Walden stated that if there is anyone having trouble getting a summer job or if anyone is needine, sunmier help, contact the Canada Manpower Centre in Goderich and talk to either Miss Clancy or himsLlf.

SPONSORED BY THE HURON -MIDDLESEX LIBERAL ASSOCIATION From the Minister's Study BY PASTOR ALFRED FRY In Paul's Epistle to the Galations, chapter six, he warns of the danger of seeing the faults and mistakes of others, yet not taking a close look at our own, It is a message of love and concern, for Paul remembered the admonition ' of Jesus who said "This is my commandment that you love one another as I have loved you". We have all had our share of sorrow and sickness, adversities, How refreshing it was when others came to us with sympathetic love and understanding helping us to bear that extra burden. We hear so much of crippled children and older people, of the blind, the hungry and destitute people of the world, we say a little prayer for them, yet do very little in a practical way. How much a kind word or a smile, or kind letter can do for these dear people. Jesus was not a rich man in worldly goods, but He had a great heart of love. He gave freely of that love to make others happy, finally laying down His life for the whole world. The Galation church was noted for hardness of heart always bringing up the legal aspect of conditions, just as some people today, when asked to contribute to some worthy cause, they shrug their shoulders and say, "We have institutions and societies to care for these". This is certainly not Christian, we must learn to share another's bruden, put ourselves i their place and not be too self centered. If you had been Peter when Jesus asked him three times "Do you love me? How would you respond? if I could leave a parting message to all of the good people of our communities as we go into retirement and after five very happy years at Auburn, it would be "Take a fresh look at ourselves, what are you doing for Jesus Christ and those for whom He died?" May God Bless you all, and you Mr. Editor, for giving the ministers an opportunity to express themselves through The Minister's Study.

SUNDAY, JUNE 2 DR. BOB DRYBURGH WILL SPEAK DOROTHY SCOTLAND HURON MEN'S CHAPEL AUBURN — 8 F.M. Evil Prevails When Good Men Do,,Nothing .10 THE BLYTH STANDARD, MAY 29, 1974. PG.13 The Empty BY JENE MILLER The clerk in the grocery was marking prices on cans. A friend of mine got curious and checked the prices which were being changed. The cans had been marked to Londesboro man graduates with Masters Richard W. Collings, son of Mr. and Mrs. W.R. Collings of Londesboro, received the Master of Education degree in Secondary Education at the 88th Com- mencement Exercises of Spring- field (Mass.) College held Sun- day, May 26. At Springfield College Collings was President of the Cosmopolitan Club and a member of the Committee on Graduate Studies. Collings is a graduate of Central Huron High School and a 1973 graduate of Springfield College. Collings was one of 455 undergraduate and 270 graduate students to receive degrees at the commencement exercises, Addressing the grad- uates was Dr. Art Linkletter, radio and television personality, author, and Springfield College Trustee. Pew sell for 57 cents and the prices were being raised to 64 cents. What flipped my friend out was that some of the cans being marked at 64 cents were taken from a box on the floor, and in that box they had originally been priced at 49 cents. The store had bought the food to sell at a profit for 49 cents, but was not narking the same items up almost 50 per cent. When you wonder what is causing inflation, you might not want to blame "government". The businesses which are deliberately marking products to higher prices need to be held accountable. Government is scapegoat for a business community which kept telling people not to look to the government for everything as either answer or cause! Louis Pasteur meant to pre- serve the food when he developed canning -preservation, he seems to be the developer of built-in inflation!?! After all, if businessmen buy tanned goods which make profits at 49 cents, and hold them to sell for 50 per cent more than a fair profit, inflation is also one of the things preserved! We may need to buy our groceries once a year, just as our ancestors bought them once a week. CHURCH OF GOD McConnel Street, Blyth CHURCH SERVICE: 11 a.m. THE ANGLICAN CHURCH OF CANADA REV.

Behind the scenes Support for Nixon still surprising BY KEITH ROULSTON The American media continues :o be astounded by the low depths to which the popularity of Richard Nixon has dropped. Recent polls conducted by Time and the Harris organization showed still further drops in the number of supporters of Nixon. Time showed only 38 per cent wanted Nixon to remain in office with 53 per cent wanting him out. The Harris poll showed 41 per cent wanted Nixon to remain in office. While the U.S. press is impressed with the number of people who want Nixon out, an outsider might be impressed by the number of people who still want him in. Despite everything that has happened in the past year in the U.S., about 40 per cent of people feel Nixon should stay on. That's about 80 million people, a number nearly four times larger than the whole Canadian population. It's a little earth shattering. Looking at those figures it is easier to see why Nixon continues to hang on stubbornly. Everyday he can tough it out, he probably figures, the chances of people getting fed up and swinging back to side grow. He doesn't have to swing that many people to have a majority back on his side. Many times, Nixon has been portrayed as a man who has victimized the American people. But the American people, it seems, are a little like the woman who walked naked through a dark alley in a bad section of town then wondered why someone tried- to rape her. They've been asking for it. Now they finally got it. Yes, hard as it may be to admit it, the American people are getting just what they descry' in Richard Nixon, They have deserved it because they have elevated the position of the presidency to one akin to God. They have in them a need to hero-worship like no other nation on earth. When a man takes the oath of office, they may grumble about his policies, but they still look on him in such awe that to put him out of office is unthinkable. Nixon is a proven liar, a proven swindler of income tax funds, a man who should have his mouth washed out with soap for the language he uses, and unproven but certainly suspected political schemer in the Watergate affair and all round just generally unfit to hold the top post in any nation, Yet 40 per cent of the people refuse to think he should be put out of his office. They would rather suffer than see resignation or impeachment. It would be too much a blow to their pride to admit they had made a mistake at the polls. Whether or not Nixon stays, the hero -worshiping will go on. With Nixon discredited, the Press has already turned to Gerald Ford the new vice-president and making him something grander than just an ordinary politician. Perhaps that is the one difference in the American and Canadian people that makes it hard for a thing like Watergate to happen here (the original crime could happen, but certainly the possibility of a Prime Minister holding office for a full year after its discovery is hard to see). Ironically, as the election camp- aign neither Robert Stanfield or Pierre Trudeau with , their rel- atively clean records could summon up a full 40 per cent support that Nixon gets in the U.S. despite Watergate.
