PRINCE RUPERT DAILY NEWS — 1962 An independent newspaper devoted to the upbuilding of Prince Rupert and Northern and Central British Columbia. A member of the Canadian Press — Audit Bureau of Circulation 7 Canadian Daily Newspaper Publishers Association Published by The Prince Rupert Daily News Limited ‘ hae JOHN F, MAGOR J.R, AYRES ‘ President Managing Tditor ' Authorized as Second Class Mall by the Post Office Department, Ottawa 1 . . t TUESDAY, JULY 3, 1962 ! % Canada — back to coalition she size of the setback the “ins” have suffered is the most striking surface feature of the Canadian national elec- tions: But, aside from the fact that the woverning Conservatives emerge a mi- nority party measured by popular vote ne well as parliamentary seats, the eeneral result is in line with informed expectations, Months ugo there were signs that Prime Minister John Diefenbaker’s forees in Parliament would be cut nearly in half in a June election, That hus now happened. A majority of 203 seats out of 265 in the House of Commons for the Con- veryvatives has been reduced to 116. They will have to find allies for a co- slition. It is obvious they can get these only ina sort of caretaker administra- tion looking to a-new election some- wheze about a year from now. What. has dealt this blow to the Diefenbaker political fortunes? No one thing. There is reported from Canada a sort of vague discon- tent, a kind of mist in which a number of concrete dissatisfactions lurk, none of them large enough in itself to ac- eount for the upset. The clearest single issue—clearest because oversimplified—has been sym- holized by the “Diefendollar,” printed hy the opposition and circulated to voters. This was a reminder that the administration cat the value of the Canndian dollar. from $1.03 United States currency to 921% cents. It seems almost forgotten now that When this took place the Canadian dollars value did not rest sufficiently on Canadas foreign trade, but over- much on American investment in Ca- nadian industry--an investment that often threatened outside control. That was a kind of inflation, on ton of the budgetary inflation which results from big national deficits. The opposition does not attack deficits as cael, nor the imported element in the West German Workers of West Crermany are proving Lo be pretty omueh tie same as their brothers in-Am- tre Atter being held up for years as models cio oanelustria! rectitude: and examples union tnen on this Continent should follow, they are howing osinns Gt dissatistaetion with thelr hore of the sales of lie goods they produce, Chancellor Konrad Adenauer, who has been able to anaintein a balance between production ond costs siffiebentiy wide to enable West Ger- siany fo compere ou favorable terms with high- sae Amerieu, is running inte the same troubles wveb cent costs on this continent so high, Newest labor unrest is a threat of strike from uimost a million civil servants and work- er. ciaployed by the government. ‘hey have nirendy tole) Herr Adcniaver that unless pay Honands urecanet they will walk off thelr jobs on Ahondaay, ‘hus protest follaws lard on the heels of a deadlock an wage talks between untons Involy- hop Po0,000 Rohrominers and management, The Hiner Wantamore pay and will eut off produc- Hog aialess: they pet it.

What the Lib- erals have been saying to attract 38 per cent of the popular vote as against 87 for the Conservatives (and to put. 9§ Liberal MIP’s where there were only 51 before) is Conservative aid to erowLhmanship, tax cuts for business, bigger pensions, were too little too late. Both parties are about equal in their support of the welfare state, the Liberals a little “more equal.” As Mr. Diefenbiker moves toward a new election, presuming he can eount on the Social Credit Party’s support, a whole range of national problems will be debated, and the im- portance of the Comrnon Market is- sue may mount. The Liberals have shown more readiness to accommo- date British interests in Common Market membership than Mr. Diefen- baker has. Incidentally the gains by the Social Credit group, from no seats to 30 is the outstanding surprise of, the elec- tion. The rise of the socialist New Democratic Party from eight seats was forecast within a seat or two of the 19 if now has. Two aspects of the election give it more than national significance. The latent uneasimess which it re- flects is being felt in much of the Western world, where record prosper- ity does not conceal some flagging of inspiration, of dynamism and of cde- lication. gp -. Specially interesting in Britain must be the fuct that in Canada, too, the by-elections were predicting trou- bles for the national government which _ are Come Upon It.

PB GUPPIN wae No home for youngster By REV. FRANK CHUBE in the Dawson Creek Star Last week I met one of the best arguments against sex- ual intercourse outside of mar- riage that I’ve yet met. He is a rather improbable fellow by the name of Bill Cumbs — or at least he is by that name he wants to conceal his real iden- tity, which is actually some- thing quite different. : To use his own words, Bill was “born a bastard,” and raised in a Winnipeg orphan- age. His mother used to come and visit with him when he was very small, and he thought at the time that his parents were very poor and could therefore not afford to keep him in their home. Of course the truth was that his mother was not married and as a re- sult. there was no home in which to keep him. Bill has no idea who his father was. Those whd'entice and seduce, and toy with extra - marital pregnancy try to convince themselves and others that only the prudish could be so narrow minded as to call this form of entertainment “evil.” But I wonder if they ever think what it means to a kid like Bill to grow up in an orphan- : age believing that your par- ents ecouldn’t afford to keep you at home. I wonder if they know what it means to a kid never to know what the word “home” means never to know what its Jike to be fondled and loved by parents — in faet, never to be really loved and wanted by anyone in your whole life, Tl tell you what ib meant to Bl. He never Jearned the meaning of “love” but did learn almost perfectly how to “hate.” From that day at the orphanage when they finally told him what the real sitnu- fion was, until today, he hus hated himself for being a bas- tard: huted the world Into which, he was thrust homeless; hnted his mother for giving birth to him. The first thing he did when he was old enough to be ejected from the orphan- are into soclety, was to buy a mun. For three solid weeks he searched for the womnan of whose “evening's entertaine ment” Bil was the result, For- tunately he never found her, or bath her story and Bill's would no doubt have ended sooner. Maybe it would have been hetier for BIN if his had. Tle is In his mid thirties now with a full record of his private war with the world behind him, Te has lost count of the num. her of times he has heen in prison, but both the times and ihe rensons have been numer- OUs, Something happened to Bil In Edmonton three weeks po that was new and strange, and no obit terrifying, He met the first person who aver seamed to enre ahout him -— for him- self, and not for some advan tie they nuaht gain, Ta make It worse, she was sameone qagain fer the first time in his fed for whom he felt. great reapect.

Then ao oman Ino the front rew stood wp and shouted ta the man in the back of the room 'Poean hear and TH be rine to exehanpe plvees witht you." in his life Bill was concerned for someone else besides him- self. You might even say he was in love, and the emotion was utterly foreign to him. What do you do when you want more than anything lo please the person with whom you have fallen in love, and yet you have a past like Bill’s and you have lied to her about everything, from the job you don’t have right down to the fact that the name you are using is not your own? Bill did what he had always done he- fore. He ran! The trouble now is that he will, never be able to run far enough to escape this new and baffling experience, so foreign to his whole life; the experience of being loved and wanting to please. It haunts him. What he would like to do would be to rush back to Ed- monton and try his hardest to make a go of it in the world of honesty and hard work where she lives. But would she still have him? It’s five days now since I wrote the letter he asked me to write to her sparing none of the grim details. I find my- self waiting almost as anxi- ously as he is, to know what her answer will be. I don't know what. to hope for. If she says ‘yes, it may eventually break her heart. If she suy ‘no, it will more than break his, Adultery is evil, Quote and unquote Frank Cousins, Seeretary of the British Transport and General Workers Union: “NATO has in the past few years transformed itself from the collective security defence organization that it started to be to a military alliance In the ald power bloc sense, “Power politics were never any vgood.

For when some of our town planners go to work to remodel old districts, or when our traffie experts pro- ceed to remodel our problem thoroughfares, they succeed only in “remuddling.’ And cer- tainly a great many of us who have been faced with the job of remodelling our summer- cottages, most of which re- quire drastic surgery after 9 few years, come up with some remarkable muddles.

We will obtain an noswer and pubsish it tn chia coburn, Q.'I have noticed in the press recently that more and more people are going to jail for defrauding the Unemploy- . ment Insurance Fund. Why is this? A. This is difficult to answer because a court sentence is entirely the the presiding magistrate — or judge. However, there has been considerable = attention focussed on the depletion of the Fund through fraud, and it is assumed that the © in- crense in penalties handed out by courts has been prompted by this publicity. Q.1I drew regular — benefit up to 15 February, 1962, and am now on seasonal benefit until May 21, 1962. In the meantime, I have been takiny the government's basic educa- tion course. If I leave’ the course, can I be disqualified from drawing benefit alloge- ther, or can I be disqualified for six weeks? Does it make any difference whethere I am living in New Brunswick or in Quebec, insofar as the regula- tions governing my = circum: stanees are concerned? A. If you leave the course without good cause you may be disqualified from receipt ul benefit for a period of up tu six weeks. The regulations governing the receipt of un- employment insurance bene- fit are the same in New Bruns- wick as they are in Quebec. Q.I am 66 years old and have recently retired after having worked on the railroad for 38 years. I paid contribu- tions to unemployment insur- ance ever since 1941. FT have been receiving regular bene- fits up to the end of March. Should I not he entitled to receive seasonal benefit now? A. Providing you meet the conditions of entitlement you may possibly be entitled to seasonal benefit. However. benefit is not paid to a person simply because he is not work- ing. It is essential that you prove you have been unable to obtain suitable employment and are ready, able and will- ing to take work. Further, you must meet certain contribu- tion requirements.
