The Status Quo
The talks between President Hisen-
hower and Prime Minister Diefen-

âbaker have ended without, apparent.
ly, having resulted in any definite
commitment on outstanding issuesâ
save the generalized one of promising
to work together in trying to prevent
surprise attack from the Arctic. This,
however, has been understood all
along, so there is nothing new or ex-
eiting about it. Se
The one tentative agreement in the
economic fieldâwhich, after all, is
the only field in which there are ser-
ious differencesâwas on the sub-
ject of sales to Red China of com-
-modities manufactured by American
subsidiaries in Canada. But even here
there is so much sonfusion in inter-
pretation that it really means very
little, if: anything. The official8tate-
ment from the conference was: âThe
Canadian and U.S, Governments have
given consideration te situations
where policies and laws. of the two
countries may not be in complete
harmony. It has been agreed that in
these cases there will be full consulta-
tion between the two Governments ©
with a view to finding through appro-
priate procedures satisfactory solu-
tions te concrete problems as they
arise.â
That just about leaves the dispute
where it was when an American sub-
sidiary in Canada wanted to sell 1000
automobiles to China and was pre-
| vented from doing so by the U.S.
State Department. Finance Minister
Fleming's statement that âthe inten-
tion of the agreement was that only
Canadian laws would apply on per-
sons and corporations doing business
in Canada and seeking to export
goods te Red Chinaâ would appear,
on its face, to be a remarkable ex-
' ample of wishful thinking. The hope |
_that out of the conference would come
American recognition of Canadaâs
rights in trading with other countries
was, clearly, not fulfilled. It is easy
to imagine what would happen if the
situation were reversed and a Canad-
ian subsidiary doing business in the
United States were told by the Can-
adian Government not to ship certain
goods to' some particular country!
Ottawa would be toldâin unmistake-
able languageâte mind its own: busi-
Parliamentary Truants .
The 24th Parliament of Canada has
been in session for less than two
months; and already, according to
Arthur Blakely in the Montreal Gaz-
ette, parliamentary absenteeism has
reached heavy proportions. The long-
weekenders, composed for the mostâ
part of Ontario and Quebee M.P.âs,
arent members of any one party.
They form a brigade of their own
which has begun to operate with its
usual. clockwork precisionâleaving
Ottawa for parts east and west on
Thursday, returning to the capital
for parliamentary duty each following
Tuesday. The fact that they are
skimping their duties and cheating
their constituents of their well-paid
services in the House doesnât seem to
worry them at all. mags mA
According to Mr. Blakely, it is the
veteran M.P.âs who are the pace-
setters. Rookies of the classes of °57
and â58 havenât yet assumed a lead-
ing role in the âbrigade.â Many of
them, in fact, have tended to remain
on deck on Parliament Hill whenever
' the House is in session out of sheer
curiosity: But they are coming to un-
derstand that the long weekend is âan
old custom.â Ga
The new session began on May 12.
When a vote was held some two
weeks later on Wednesday, May 28,
no fewer than 233 M.P.âs were on
hand to vote; that was the best at-
tendance registered for a vote at any
time this session. The most poorly
attended Commons vote of the session
came on June 9âa Mondayâwhen
the total number of votes cast was
159. Absentees numbered 105. On at
least one occasion, absenteeism creat-
ed an embarrassing situation for the
Government. This occurred during
the Canadian visit of His Excellency
Dr. Theodor Heuss, President of the
Federal Republic of Germany. The
distinguished . visitor addressed a
joint session of the Senate and the

Commons on June 2 â another Mon-
dayâto a chamber containing many
. empty seats. Fewer than 100 M.P.'s
were present, of 265: Senators in at-
tendance numbered about 40. A good
half. of the Cabinet were absent.
In theory, the personal service of
members has been compulsory under
the British parliamentary system
from ancient times. The. standing
rules and orders at Ottawa provide
that âevery member is bound to at-
tend the service of the House, unless
leave of absence has been given him
by the House.â At one time stiff pen-
alties were imposed upon absentees.
But we are living in a free and easy
age; and what life freerer and easier
than that of a parliamentarian who
is unconcerned about his responsibi-
lities? At Professor Norman Ward
observes in his âThe Canadian House
âof Commonsâ; âAll in all, the oppor-
tunities for members to draw their
indemnities and other emoluments

More Work For APEC |
Tt seems that the Atlantie Pro-

expected task on its hands, Besides
trying to attract new industries to
the area, it has to make strenuous
efforts to keep the industries we al-
ready have from pulling up stakes.
Should the Acadia-Atlantie Sugar
Refineries of St. John decide to move
to Central Canada, it will be a hard
blow to the region, Not âonly will it
result in a higher price for sugar;
it will adversely affect other indus-
tries which, in turn, may be persuad-
ed to go elsewhere, At least three
firms have already mentioned that

for The Guardian.
LONDON â Prime Minister
Macmillan has expressed very
accurately the views of the rank
and file of the British public in
this latest. letter to Prime Minis-
ter Khrushchev of Russia on the
subject of a summit meeting. He
stated very clearly, the differen-
ees between the British and the
Russian viewpoint on such a
meeting. He told Khrushchev that
the Russian objective was sim-
ply to hold a meeting, whereas
the British objective was to ne-
gotiate a settlement of some of
the differences between the two
ideological groups. And he asked
the very pertinent, question of
how any negotiations could be
successful if the two sides are
unable to agree on the subjects
for negotiation. â :
_ The man in. the street has a
the Russian leader with the sug-
gestion that if he wants to play
ball, it is time the rules were
set down in black and white. Now
it may be possible to find out if
Russia really wants a summit
meeting that is likely to produce
results. :

lars showed a substantial increase

brings the reserves up to the high-
-est point for the last - seven
âyearsâto $3,076,000,000. This is

In June, Britain made a pay-
ment of $7,500,000. to Canada on
its interest-free loan, Two -simil-
ar payments will be miade in
September and December. A pay-
ment. of $6,000,000 was made on

Britainâs economy is in better
âbalance that at any time in the
last few years. He expressed the
view that certain reductions in
prices, working â gradually
through the economy, have not
yet, in all cases, fully reached
the consumer. He also sensed
that stability in wages was be-
ing achieved, and that there was
a better balance between wages
and prices than at any time since
the war.
â The levelling-of in ecommidity

quite noticeable to the British

FLOODS HURT BUSINESS
The serious floods, as a result |
| of many days of rainfall, haye
hit some sections of Britain a
hard blow, particularly the hol-
iday resorts. For the last two
weeks, there has scarcely been
a day without rain. Many vil-
lages and towns have suffered
from severe flooding. Crops are
in danger from wet feet. .
Down onthe coast, the holi-
day resorts are sounding a
gloomy note. Brighton and East-
bourne are showing heavy los-
ses in takings from deek chair
charges, pleasure cruises and
their many outdoor holiday at-
tractions. The day trippers to the
coast on whom many summer
entertainment attractions depend,
have been almost entirely elim-
inated in the past two weeks.
Sports events, especially cric-
ket and the Wimbledon tennis,
have taken a bad beating. In the
last two âweeks, the New Zea-
land touring team has had only
two days play, and the test
match opening had to be ean-
celled because of flooded grounds.
Summer has not really started
over here, and for once there has
been something definite to talk
about on the subject of the wea-
ther. :
FREE T.V. SHOW SEATS
Something new has turned up
in union demands, Organizations
representing motion picture thea-
ire owners, actors and musicians:
are backing a move to have the
BBC and the eommercial tele-|.
vision operators make studio au-
diences pay for their seats. The
growing spate of entertainment
provided by the free audience ar-
rangements for T.V. shows are
hurting the box office receipts
of the cinema, They estimate
that nearly half a million free
seats for radio and T.V. shows:
-are now being given away each
year, Their suggestion is that a
charge of one shilling a seat,
the proceeds to go to entertain-
ment charities, be made for sats
for such shows. The feeling is
that the practice of inviting au-
diences, free, to T.V. and radio
shows, has been abused and
has become a menace to the en-
tertainment industry.

The Status Quo
The talks between President Hisen-
hower and Prime Minister Diefen-

âbaker have ended without, apparent.
ly, having resulted in any definite
commitment on outstanding issuesâ
save the generalized one of promising
to work together in trying to prevent
surprise attack from the Arctic. This,
however, has been understood all
along, so there is nothing new or ex-
eiting about it. Se
The one tentative agreement in the
economic fieldâwhich, after all, is
the only field in which there are ser-
ious differencesâwas on the sub-
ject of sales to Red China of com-
-modities manufactured by American
subsidiaries in Canada. But even here
there is so much sonfusion in inter-
pretation that it really means very
little, if: anything. The official8tate-
ment from the conference was: âThe
Canadian and U.S, Governments have
given consideration te situations
where policies and laws. of the two
countries may not be in complete
harmony. It has been agreed that in
these cases there will be full consulta-
tion between the two Governments ©
with a view to finding through appro-
priate procedures satisfactory solu-
tions te concrete problems as they
arise.â
That just about leaves the dispute
where it was when an American sub-
sidiary in Canada wanted to sell 1000
automobiles to China and was pre-
| vented from doing so by the U.S.
State Department. Finance Minister
Fleming's statement that âthe inten-
tion of the agreement was that only
Canadian laws would apply on per-
sons and corporations doing business
in Canada and seeking to export
goods te Red Chinaâ would appear,
on its face, to be a remarkable ex-
' ample of wishful thinking. The hope |
_that out of the conference would come
American recognition of Canadaâs
rights in trading with other countries
was, clearly, not fulfilled. It is easy
to imagine what would happen if the
situation were reversed and a Canad-
ian subsidiary doing business in the
United States were told by the Can-
adian Government not to ship certain
goods to' some particular country!
Ottawa would be toldâin unmistake-
able languageâte mind its own: busi-
Parliamentary Truants .
The 24th Parliament of Canada has
been in session for less than two
months; and already, according to
Arthur Blakely in the Montreal Gaz-
ette, parliamentary absenteeism has
reached heavy proportions. The long-
weekenders, composed for the mostâ
part of Ontario and Quebee M.P.âs,
arent members of any one party.
They form a brigade of their own
which has begun to operate with its
usual. clockwork precisionâleaving
Ottawa for parts east and west on
Thursday, returning to the capital
for parliamentary duty each following
Tuesday. The fact that they are
skimping their duties and cheating
their constituents of their well-paid
services in the House doesnât seem to
worry them at all. mags mA
According to Mr. Blakely, it is the
veteran M.P.âs who are the pace-
setters. Rookies of the classes of °57
and â58 havenât yet assumed a lead-
ing role in the âbrigade.â Many of
them, in fact, have tended to remain
on deck on Parliament Hill whenever
' the House is in session out of sheer
curiosity: But they are coming to un-
derstand that the long weekend is âan
old custom.â Ga
The new session began on May 12.
When a vote was held some two
weeks later on Wednesday, May 28,
no fewer than 233 M.P.âs were on
hand to vote; that was the best at-
tendance registered for a vote at any
time this session. The most poorly
attended Commons vote of the session
came on June 9âa Mondayâwhen
the total number of votes cast was
159. Absentees numbered 105. On at
least one occasion, absenteeism creat-
ed an embarrassing situation for the
Government. This occurred during
the Canadian visit of His Excellency
Dr. Theodor Heuss, President of the
Federal Republic of Germany. The
distinguished . visitor addressed a
joint session of the Senate and the

Commons on June 2 â another Mon-
dayâto a chamber containing many
. empty seats. Fewer than 100 M.P.'s
were present, of 265: Senators in at-
tendance numbered about 40. A good
half. of the Cabinet were absent.
In theory, the personal service of
members has been compulsory under
the British parliamentary system
from ancient times. The. standing
rules and orders at Ottawa provide
that âevery member is bound to at-
tend the service of the House, unless
leave of absence has been given him
by the House.â At one time stiff pen-
alties were imposed upon absentees.
But we are living in a free and easy
age; and what life freerer and easier
than that of a parliamentarian who
is unconcerned about his responsibi-
lities? At Professor Norman Ward
observes in his âThe Canadian House
âof Commonsâ; âAll in all, the oppor-
tunities for members to draw their
indemnities and other emoluments

ance in Parliament have been rémark-

Tt seems that the Atlantie Pro-

trying to attract new industries to

efforts to keep the industries we al-

Should the Acadia-Atlantie Sugar
Refineries of St. John decide to move
to Central Canada, it will be a hard
blow to the region, Not âonly will it
result in a higher price for sugar;

LONDON â Prime Minister
Macmillan has expressed very
accurately the views of the rank
and file of the British public in
this latest. letter to Prime Minis-
ter Khrushchev of Russia on the
subject of a summit meeting. He
stated very clearly, the differen-
ees between the British and the
Russian viewpoint on such a
meeting. He told Khrushchev that
the Russian objective was sim-
ply to hold a meeting, whereas
the British objective was to ne-
gotiate a settlement of some of
the differences between the two
ideological groups. And he asked
the very pertinent, question of
how any negotiations could be
successful if the two sides are
unable to agree on the subjects
for negotiation. â :
_ The man in. the street has a
the Russian leader with the sug-
gestion that if he wants to play
ball, it is time the rules were
set down in black and white. Now
it may be possible to find out if
Russia really wants a summit
meeting that is likely to produce
results. :

-est point for the last - seven
âyearsâto $3,076,000,000. This is

In June, Britain made a pay-

Britainâs economy is in better

last few years. He expressed the
view that certain reductions in
prices, working â gradually
through the economy, have not
yet, in all cases, fully reached
the consumer. He also sensed
that stability in wages was be-
ing achieved, and that there was
a better balance between wages
and prices than at any time since
the war.

FLOODS HURT BUSINESS
The serious floods, as a result |
| of many days of rainfall, haye
hit some sections of Britain a
hard blow, particularly the hol-
iday resorts. For the last two
weeks, there has scarcely been
a day without rain. Many vil-
lages and towns have suffered
from severe flooding. Crops are
in danger from wet feet. .
Down onthe coast, the holi-
day resorts are sounding a
gloomy note. Brighton and East-
bourne are showing heavy los-
ses in takings from deek chair
charges, pleasure cruises and
their many outdoor holiday at-
tractions. The day trippers to the
coast on whom many summer
entertainment attractions depend,
have been almost entirely elim-
inated in the past two weeks.
Sports events, especially cric-
ket and the Wimbledon tennis,
have taken a bad beating. In the
last two âweeks, the New Zea-
land touring team has had only
two days play, and the test
match opening had to be ean-
celled because of flooded grounds.
Summer has not really started
over here, and for once there has
been something definite to talk
about on the subject of the wea-
ther. :
FREE T.V. SHOW SEATS
Something new has turned up
in union demands, Organizations
representing motion picture thea-
ire owners, actors and musicians:
are backing a move to have the
BBC and the eommercial tele-|.
vision operators make studio au-
diences pay for their seats. The
growing spate of entertainment
provided by the free audience ar-
rangements for T.V. shows are
hurting the box office receipts
of the cinema, They estimate
that nearly half a million free
seats for radio and T.V. shows:
-are now being given away each
year, Their suggestion is that a
charge of one shilling a seat,
the proceeds to go to entertain-
ment charities, be made for sats
for such shows. The feeling is
that the practice of inviting au-
diences, free, to T.V. and radio
shows, has been abused and
has become a menace to the en-
tertainment industry.
