Dominion Tarw Takes Over Big ,Brick Plant

1 TORONTO. (CP)-Dominion Ta., ;and Chemical Company Limited oil Montreal has acquired one ofCan- adais biggest brickmzikers. Cooks- ville Company Limited

The acquisition, announced Wed- nesday, puts Dominic-n Tar, which owns or controls 32 plants, "in the building material industry with both feet," a company spokesman said. "With the exception of lum- her, we can now almost build a house oui'selves."

The major shareholder of Dom- inion Tar is Argus Corp., n holding company of which industrialist E. P. Taylor of Toronto is president. Mr. Taylor is also chairman of ithc board of Dominion Tar. Control of the Cooksvills coni- pany was reported brought about by an offering to shareholders to purchase some 33,115,000 of class A and B stock. Dominion Tar of- fered 320 a share for the 89.000 class A shares outstanding and s15 I. share for a similar number of class B shares.

Among other things, the Ameri- can bomb makers are working on a techniqiie for "triggering" the mighty hydrogen bomb without using the unearthly heat of a standard fission bomb to set on the atomic fusion process of hy- drogen.

Until recently, the popular sup- position was that unless it nation already possessed fission bombs there would be no way to detonate the hydrogen fusion bomb with the million or more degree heat sup- posedly required for creating the explosidn.

That may no longer be neces- sary, although the technical de- tails of the process being worked on, may not be disclosed at this time. However, it may be said they involve basic facts considered by physicists during early studies of atomic reaction in the mid-30s -and thus must be presumed to be available to Russia. also.

Speculation has been that the United States may have between two and five years' lead over Rus- sia in making usable Ihydrogen bombs. Conservative officials here guess at about ,three years. but point out that the Russians may stumble on I. short-cut' that will put Russia even or ahead.

An assessment of what is known or guessed at about Russian pro- gress shows smong other. things that:

1 1. The foundetion-for enormous scientific progress in Ruasis has been laid. ',

2. The -educational pattern in physical sciences has changed rup- id.ly. Contrary to its policy in deal- ing with everything else in Bus- sia, the Kremlin politicians, are keeping hands on the physicists. Scientists in Russia are virtually free of political restrictions to which all others Russians on sub- jected in their daily work.

A further complication In the current dispute between the Island Telephone Company, Ltd., and its employees is indicated in a letter received by the Compam from the Public Utilities Commission, dealing with the status of the Arbitration Board which has re- commended a 71-5 per cent wage increase, effective Jiiiy l, and a 40-hour week effective Jan. 1, 1954.

"As you are well aware, "the Commission letter states, the re- cimmendatinn of the Board of Ar- bitrators. if acted upon. would saddle your Company with a great increase in operating costs which would probably result in an ap- plication for an increase in rates. Under existing legislation a rate increase can only be made after a public hearing at which the neces-

sify for such increase has been established, "An exfmiiiation of provincial

legislation dealing with the mat- ters in question seems in disclose that the provisions of the Arbitra- tion Act must be construed as general legislation, while those of the Public Utilities Commission Act and of the Electric Power and Telephone Act, riotably Section 26 of the latter. are special legisla- tion dealing with ihe special pri- blem of rate making for public utilities supplying telephone ser- vice nr electrical energy. It is a general rule of construction that special legislatioii is not overridden by general. Therefore, if the Leg- islature had intended to limit the effect of Section 26 of the Electric Power and Telephone Act. it would be expected to have exprcsscd that intention in "a definite man- ner.

Public Hearing Required

"It. is oiir,opin'iori that, notwith- standing any recomnicndation made by a Board of Arbitrators under existing legislation it would still be open to any person at a public hearing on an application for a rate increase to compel the Com- mission to decide as t.n the pru- dence of such increase in oper- ating costs. ' '

The share of municipal and pro- vincial taxation in total tax rev- enue had fallen since before the Second World War, even though under the constitution the major- ity of public services in peace time were their responsibility.

This was too large and com- plex a country for any one gov- ernment to administer, and cen- tralization led to autoeracy and oven tyranny. Quebec stood for provincial autonomy both for that reason and because it wanted to preserve its ethnic individuality.

"Confederation should be what the Fathers of Confederation de- termined in good faith -an assoc- iation of provinces supreme within the limits of its competence," he said.

Other Speakers

Among other speakers at the luncheon were Hon. L. F. Moln- tosh. Saskatchewan minister of municipal affairs. '-

Thanking Quebec for its hapl- tality to the Saskatchewan dele- gates, Mr. McIntosh said, "we in the western provinces feel we have scored when we have got some- thing for nothing from the Prov.- met: of Quebec."

"It follows that this Commission Cannot now decide the question submitted by your letter and could only do so after a public hearing on.a rate application wlicrcat any objection to the prudence or nec- SSIIY of Company action in al- lowing any increase in operating costs would be open to question. We regret that we are unable to give you a more definite answer but you will realize that a decision can never be rendered until all evedence and argument have been heard. .

"We think it proper to point out here that it has been the policy of this Commission to have your cgm- pany improve the standard of wag- es and working conditions of its employees with a view of brimzing them in line with those prevailing in your associated companies in Nova Scnti.-i. As proof of this. you will recall that the question of wage increases was discussed at your last rate hearing nnd that, at in- formal conferences subsequently held long before the present ar- bitration proceedings were com- menced, it was suggested, on the iiiforniation then available, that a five per cent increase could be- come effective on the, inaugura- tion of the dial system in Char- lottetown. And, as such intimation was made on the basis of the in- formation supplied at the public iicarlnzl we think notwithstanding

approval -should be given for any resulting increase in the operating costs occasioned by the said in- crease,

Blame Cdnics I And Television

WESTON-SUPER-MARE. Eng. (Reuters) , - Comic strips and television were blamed at an ed- ucatlonal conference" here Thurs- day for creating mental stupidity and laziness. . -

J. Compton. a west London ed- ucation officer. told delegates of the National Association of Divi- sional Executives of Education:

cllne to shrug off any discussion of the evil consequences of the comic strip. They inlaoonceive the situation entirely."

Books encouraged and developed thinking but comic strips, in al- liance with television, regimented opinion and created mental stupid- ity and laziness, he said.
