Winnipeg Free Press (Newspaper) - October 2, 1965, Winnipeg, Manitoba Winnipeg free Priess. Saturday october 2, 1965 French Canadian newspapers speak out on current issues this is a selection Feill Lurl als on current Tuples translated from the French language press of Canada. Stich dec i action the visit of Premier to West Ern Canada will not Only encourage our people hut will also make majority groups among whom the minorities live understand that Quebec also has its minorities and that it treated them As part ners. The honorable Premier will also reassure the English group about the separatist ideas of certain groups which Are More noisy than numer Ous and which will lose their importance As English can Ada admits in fact and in Law that French canadians Are equal partners every where in confederation. It is not Only a question of Quebec and nine other provinces it is also and most important. A question of this country s Kwh founding groups eng Lish and French speaking canadians. Or. Lesage is making his pilgrimage during the course of n Federal election Campaign. He has undertaken to stay away from politics. If he remains True to this under taking he will have proven again and in spectacular fashion that politics in que Bec is really and truly autonomous even if the Quebec government is of the same Liberal Stripe As the cd Era government which is seeking re election. Philippe Riby sept. 21 in m Drott Ottawa the latest Issue of a news Magazine of the Ottawa civil servants recreation association contains an interesting article entitled classes in French at a the author believes the study of French can serve to bring closer together the two main ethnic groups As a source of cultural enrichment and also in getting various types of jobs. He Points out that French has been n diplomatic Lan Guage since 1678 and that it is used in several countries other than France. He comes to the conclusion that French and English arc the two most widely used languages in the world and suggests that canadians learn both. He is speak ing mainly to Anglo canadians became most French canadians Are already bilingual. This association is therefore taking a worthwhile step Likely to attain the above stated Aims by giving its English speaking members a Chance to follow a Well adapted French course. Terni or sept. 20 la presses Montreal la Tress at Saskatoon but before an audience largely made up of of the Franco Canadian cultural association of Saskatchewan Premier began his tour of. Western Canada to explain Quebec the pillar of support for French even if the general theme of his first speech was not new a few of his main ideas and especially his presenta Tion had a new Aura. Accord ing to the Quebec Premier those who want to retain the present division of Canada into 10 watertight provinces e a c h carefully partitioned have a vertical View of our country that makes solution of our problems difficult if not it is from the horizontal Angle that is to say. From the aspect of two majorities sur rounded by minorities that Canada appears in its True perspective that which is determined by its history and geography. If Quebec wants to give itself new strength and occupy All the jurisdictional territory to which it has a right it is imply to make this horizontal View of Canada prevail against those who would like to sep Arate it into 10 units of equal value faced with an octopus like Central government Ca Pable of dominating the prov inces. Or. Lesage takes this important subject from the top and treats it with the adroit Ness and nuances it needs. However before English speaking audiences and especially at press conferences which he will not be Able to avoid will he always he Able to stay at this level before leaving Quebec he specified that during this tour All political subjects will be taboo. However things have appeared in the English language press which Lead us to believe he will have much difficulty staying within such limits. If he succeeds de spite everything he will have accomplished a new style feat of strength. Felteau sept. 21 la Tribune scr books la few years ago we saw the fut Iiri through the prism of the past satisfied with having been Able to survive in the Anglo Saxon society that sur rounds we attached great importance to our traditions even to the Point of refusing to adapt them to the needs of our times. We hesitated we were afraid of re evaluating every thing so As to take a step in the direction of Progress be cause we under estimated our strength and because we look a kind of pleasure in exaggerating our weaknesses. For generations we had been trained to look Only to the past. This was almost inevitable under the Circum we lacked scope be cause of having thought in terms of the Parish Rural life and tradition. Our horizons barely. Extended beyond the Village where Tho Church Steeple attracted us As a Lighthouse Beacon. It is within this context that the Miracle of French sur Vival in North America place. Hare indeed Are peo Ples which like ours almost without help from the outside were Able to live and grow As we did. Two factors must be taken into account to explain this first our de termination to survive As a separate and distinct ethnic entity and second the political Constitution that Al Lowed us to remain True to our racial origin. Take away one of these two formal conditions and the other loses its reason for being. The Awakening that now is taking place in Quebec is still More remarkable because we were absent for generations from Large undertakings and the business world while our schools were not turning out men who could get us out of our rut in these sectors. Coming slowly out of his tory it is necessary without compromising on the essential Points to guard against Hesi tation in borrowing ideas techniques and ways of think ing which will make easier our economic emancipation and intellectual advancement. We must not go Back to an imaginary world where sight would be lost of the realities of the society in which we live that is to say of the Anglo Saxon fact. There is no longer any question for us of keeping our l Asl rigid and inflexible but rather of flexibly bringing about those or forms without which Success will always remain More than doubtful. Sept. 17 Israel s Eshkol suffers Rebuff Accident prevention the Accident prevention association of Manitoba monthly meeting will be held at . Oct 13 in the Viscount Gort motor hotel. More arts festivals planned London Hunter director general of the Commonwealth arts festival said Friday plans arc afoot to hold a similar festival e v e r y three years in different common wealth countries each time. At a press conference called As the first Commonwealth festival Drew to its close Hunter said wheels had been put in motion through government Chan Nels to form a steering com Mittee comprise of one or two representatives from each Commonwealth country inter ested in the idea. It was hoped the committee could be set up within months As we can ride on the Enthus asm this festival has Hunter added. It was not the intention of this festival to set up a Commonwealth but to encourage individual countries to keep the diversity of their Cul-1 Tel Aviv special owns for the first time since the state of Israel was born in 1948 the political elite Here mainly drawn from labor circles Are beginning to realize that they Are expendable. The seed of doubt has been planted As a result of prime minister Levi Eshkol s unexpected loss of one third of his party Masai strength in the election of delegates to the convention of Hista Drut general Trade Union his majority at the convention has been reduced from 75 per cent to a precarious 51 per cent. Ii support for Eshkol continues to shrink in this ratio at in parliamentary elections in no vember he May emerge in the next Knesset parliament with barely one third of the deputies this could put him in an uncomfortable if not impossible situation when trying to form the next coalition Cabinet. It would be far fetched to Sec in these developments the end of a political Era in Israel. Hut the Hista Drut poll did show sonic signs of disintegration in labor s traditional domination of politics and a loosening of the labor party machine s firm grip. The election also produced a substantial right Wing Trade Union faction 17 per cent for the first time in the federation s 45-year-old history. Altogether the results could have profound parliamentary implications. For unlike Trade unions elsewhere Hista Drut is also the most powerful body in the country s Economy.

Professor Dale Gibson told the special safety committee of the Manitoba legislature Inqui Iriner into the revision of the Highway traffic act that Section of the act had no place in Law. Under the Section a non paying i passenger As a guest in a motor vehicle has no right of suit against the Driver of the car in the event that the passenger is injured in an Accident unless Gross negligence can be proven on the part of the Driver. Speaking to the special com Mittee in room 254 at the Mani Toba legislative building. Prof. Gibson estimated that one third of the accidental injuries and deaths in Manitoba involved Pas singers Riding As guests in Aulo mobiles. Since 1936 j Section 90, he said came into effect about 193g shortly after a i supreme court judgment had ruled that a Driver was liable Orlikov blasts Mol Gat speaking to a new democratic party nominating convention in Portage la Prairie David Orli Kow last member of parliament for Winnipeg North criticized the two faced attitude of Provin Cial Liberal Leader Gildas Mol Fiat. Or. Orlikov said that while or. Mol Gat devotes All his time in Manitoba to the attempt to discover scandal corruption and dishonesty within the provincial conservative party he has called upon the electorate of this prov Ince to ignore breeches of the j Public Trust within the Federal Cabinet. J or. Orlikov claimed that none of the so called scandals that or. Mol Gat had been Able to in Earth in Manitoba comes close to duplicating the rottenness within the Federal Liberal Cabi net. He cited questionable Furni Ture deals attempted bribery the close association of the Cabi net with members of criminal organizations As examples., or. Orlikov promised the convention that n new democratic government would Institute legis lation to ensure that the Farmer was properly compensated for his year s work. We who live in the City expect a Man who has worked a month to be paid a month s wages. Why should a Farmer who works All year to grow a crop and then through no fault of his own is unable to Harvest it be treated any stated. Or. Wolikow insurance companies. If the offending Section were repealed. Prof. Gibson said it was probable that automobile insurance rates would Rise. He contended however that the Rise in Rales would not be excessive. A study conducted in Ontario where a similar Section is contained in the statutes except that a passenger May nut claim even through Gross negligence had estimated that repeal of the right to sue might result in an increase of to a year in insurance policies he said. Prof. Gibson outlined to the pm wants foreign Aid boost Ottawa minis tar Pearson pleaded today far Public support for increased foreign Aid. Or. Pearson shaking to the annual meeting of the Canadian University service overseas immediately after a 4h-hour flight from St. Johns said his government intends to increase foreign Aid substantially. He said there is a current Dis enchantment indifference and malaise about foreign Aid. This could he attributed partly to the fact the Gap has widened be tween the Rich and poor nations and countries receiving Aid seem to get into political difficulties. While there is bound then to be a deep concern Over cur rent conflicts Between coun tries whose people wish Well and desire to help this should not he permitted to determine our own attitude toward foreign Aid or developing Peoples. Should it be determined Liy the Mere calculation of Suc Cess or failure of past or. Pearson said the misery of the and their rising expectations is the chief raw material of world wide revolutionary violence and subversion. This in the Case of China was taking on an additional and ominous Strain of racism. What distinguished Western civilization from All other human cultures was its profound sense of social and moral obligation. Canada has played an Active role in International Aid but of course we have not done the statements were included in a text issued before delivery. I committee a hypothetical Case in which i Driver picked up a Friend at a bus Slop and then j w a s involved in an Accident j through negligence by striking a j pedestrian who was also neg i i gout. Despite the fact that there was j contributory negligence on the part of the pedestrian he could sue the Driver and recover at i least partial damages. I but said prof. Gibson the Pas Senger if he were also injured in the Accident who had not been negligent at All was pre vented by Section Iron suing for damages. He contended that while the Law might have been proper in because it i Kulil be unfair to sue the Driver who had offered the gratuitous ride it was no longer valid. Unlike i Mii there was now Al most Complete insurance cover age and the habit of Automo bile insurance has changed the Lair changed he also argued that the Law of negligence had changed in the interval since the Section was made Law. While it might be argued that the Section protected insurance companies against collusion be tween the passenger and Driver involved in an Accident. Prof. Gibson argued that the courts could guard against such Collu Sion in order to obtain damages for a on the other hand he said judges had gone out of their Way in order to give warped interpretations of Gross negligence i in order to give damages to Pas sengers injured in an Accident. These tortured interpretations by the courts Are Clear evidence that the judiciary consider the present legislation unfair and show Hie judges agree that a guest passenger ought to be compensated for a member of the committee t. P. Hillhouse Selkirk thanked prof. Gibson for bring ing the matter Forward. It is much he and i believe it will be appreciated by the people of Mani the Canadian Industrial safety association annual con Ference will be held monday and tuesday in Tho International inn. Madame nordic fined Madame Holla nordic was convicted in winning Magis trate s court Friday Reading Tarot cards without a licence and was fined and costs with an alternative 30. Days in jail. Muriel be Rulison Madame nordic s real name who recently came to Winnipeg from new York had been charged july 14 by the City of licence department. At that Lime she was a Reader of Tarot cards at Champ s motor inn. Osbu me Street. Magistrate Isaac lice. In his judgment Friday said counsel for the accused advanced an argument that the charge should be dismissed on the grounds that the licence bylaw does not define the Trade or profession or the meaning of card Reader it is True that a bylaw can be quashed for vagueness or uncertainty but a close examination of the bylaw clearly indicates that the of Trade or profession sought to be controlled and licenced Are those who claim to foretell future events or happenings by any method the evidence clearly established that that is what the accused was not Only doing but advertising publicly in our daily the Reading of Tarot cards is an ancient form of divination. It does not make any Dif Ference what Type of cards were used by said magistrate lice. Madame nordic will probably not read any Larot cards in Winnipeg for some time. The licence bylaw stipulates that a card Reader must be a resident of Winnipeg for one year before a licence can be obtained. Of agriculture half of building and construction enterprises one third of other industries and substantial portions of the Public services and Commerce. So that whoever controls Hista Drut dominates the most vital aspects of Israel s affairs. The weakening of the Eshkol i Camp in Hista Drut has Given the Premier a painful Choice. Should he attempt a reconciliation with the former Premier and party colleague David Ben Gurion who recently broke j away from their common Masai labor party or. Ben Gurion however is known to be Ada Muni in rejecting or. Eshkol s leadership of Masai. Such a move would break up j or. Eshkol s current alignment j with another labor Ahdout Avoca which is Buncom j promisingly opposed to or. Ben Gurion. Another alternative for Eshkol would be to draw closer to Madam a left Wing labor party of about the same strength As or. Ben Gurion s. Indeed the Premier s Masai Ahdout Avo a alignment has already instructed its regional Headquarters to enter into a coalition wild j Madam wherever this is needed to assure a majority on local j labor councils. However the Eshkol Camp s greatest Hopes Are pinned on winning Back some of Masai s lost strength in time for the Knesset elections. To do this they must convince the Many israelis who abstained at he Ili Stadul poll to vote for the old cause in november. Until a few Days ago. Or. Eshkol was regarded As unbeatable. Now he is faced with a difficult period before he can be assured of leading Israel s next coalition.
