ST. JOHN'S Nfld. (CP)-"The old days are over. it's the same in everything. If you want to get anywhere now you've got to join up with the rest of Canada."

Just a scrap of tavern talk dropped by a young Newfound- lander. but it's typical of the change that has been subtly grow- ing in the thinking of people of this province during their eight years as Canadians.

Confederation was a hard boot to wear for many Newfoundland- ers. but it's slowly growing more comfortable. A Canadian is still

h iv from the mainland. But Newfoundland a are gradually realizing they "belong." INDEPENDENT LOGGER8

The particular remark con- corned the "little confederation" struggle involving Newfound- lanti's 17.000 loggers. an issue smacking of the national conven- tion wranglcs that pi 'uced New- fnundlanti's painful birth as a Canadian province April 1. 1040. Four 20 - year - old independent woodsmen's unions are fighting to hold their membership against the inroads of a well-organized in- ternatlonsl that moved in from the " ” promising higher pay and better conditions.

Many of the lnternational'a first converts were early and ardent confederates. Like Confederation. the final allegiance of the loggers will not be won easily.

They felt the union was ar- ranged with lndecent haste-had Newfoundland first assumed full responsibility for her own affairs. terms might have been more is- vorable. snnx CONCESSIONS

Many Newfoundlanders for that reason will relish this year the efforts of their own royal com- mission to wangle concessions from the federal royal commis- sion set up to review financial terms of union.

The pmvince has prospered since Confederation. but Opposi- tion Leader Malcolm Hollett claims this is more due to the North American boom than to po- litical ties. He tells the people to "stand in their own shoes. . . not to feel dependent on handouts from Ottawa." There's an upward trend in all phases of Newfound- land's economic life.

The population has risen from 381,400 In 1951 to 415.074 in 1956. Between 1060 and 105 motor ve- hicles increased from 16,000 to 40.000; telephones from 21.500 to 35.800: houa act loans from 8230.000 to 33. .000 and personal incomes from I17l.000.000 to 5210.- revenues rose from S15.20.000 in 1961 to 331800.000 in 1060. The net value of production increased from s7s,ssz.ouo in 1040 to 0153,- 7'l9.0tXl in 1055.

p .

Tile key to the Newfoundland- er'a outlook is his fierce pride in his native land. While Newfound- land is a backward province. and the islanders freely admit it is. they still feel a vague inferiority that cannot be admitted.

Part of Premier Smallwood's popularity comes from his ident- ification as the little fellow in the flgllt against the big fellow. but he also symbolizes every New- foundlander's ambition for his province to hecolne one of Can- ada's gt t i-to become super- for.

A Newfoundlander's first reac- tion to mainlanders is one of sus- picion. quickly replaced by friendliness if he finds they don't insist on making unflattering comparisons.

During 20 months in Newfound- land this reporter has never heard 0 Canada played or sung. but he has never heard a New- foundlander say Confederation has not been all in all a good thing for the island.

Gaza Strip Refugee Camps Provide Essential Minimum

2.000 refugees living just outside the camp fall under its Jurisdic- on.

One member of each refugee family has a ration card on which is printed the total number of persons in the family. He draws his own and his family's rations from the UNRWA distribution centre.

For each member of his family for a 15-day period he gets: 11 pounds of flour. a pound of lentils. two-thirds of a pound of sugar. about a half pound of rice. a half pint of oil and a cake of soap.

During winter months, kerosene also is distributed and one blanket for every three persons.

LlT'I'LE MEAT

For the first time in years. some meat was being sent re- cently to the refugees. it came from the Egyptian government. The portions were minute.

One of the camp officials, him- self a refugee. said the food re- ceived furnishes about 1.800 cal- ories a day-which doctors con- sider below a healthy require- moot.

There is a supplementary feed- ing centre at each camp. Children under 15 receive skimmed milk. Whole milk is given to babies. Cooked meals are provided to per- sons upon recommendation of a doctor.

Each camp has a clinic. schools. an embroidery centre for young girls and a maternity centre. DISEASE COMMON

At the clinic in Jabalia camp. Dr. Ahmed Shawki Fangari said more than zoo new patients show up daily for treatment or examin- ations. There are two doctors in the clinic and one head nurse. The tuberculosis rate is high. with 115 cases in the Jaballa camp alone. The clinic has an iso- latlon ward for infectious dis- eases. the most prevalent of which are typhoid and amoebic dysentery.

Some refugees earn money by working in orange grovag or at carpentry eho I. But if a refugee earns more an B15 (about 042) a month. he no longer is entitled to draw food rations.

Each camp has a mosque and a small market place. The inhab- ltants buy fresh vegetables. and other items with whatever money they may have earned.
