    ‘baker have ended without, apparent.

    ly, having resulted in any definite
    commitment on outstanding issues—

    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 field—which, after all, is
    the only field in which there are ser-
    ious differences—was 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: “The
    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.”

    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 “the 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 China” 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 Canada’s
    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 told—in unmistake-
    able language—te 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 most’

    part of Ontario and Quebee M.P.’s,
    arent members of any one party.
    They form a brigade of their own
    which has begun to operate with its
    usual. clockwork precision—leaving
    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 doesn’t seem to
    worry them at all. mags mA

    According to Mr. Blakely, it is the
    veteran M.P.’s who are the pace-
    setters. Rookies of the classes of °57
    and ’58 haven’t yet assumed a lead-
    ing role in the “brigade.” 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 “an
    old custom.” 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.’s 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 9—a Monday—when
    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 — another Mon-
    day—to 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 “every member is bound to at-
    tend the service of the House, unless
    leave of absence has been given him
    by the House.” 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 ‘The Canadian House

    ‘of Commons”; “All in all, the oppor-

    tunities for members to draw their
    indemnities and other emoluments

    ‘ without too much wearisome attend-

    ance in Parliament have been rémark-

    able, and there is no doubt that many’

    have taken full advantage of
    opportunities,” pce
    We are pleased to add that mem-
    bers from this Province have rarely

    these

    fallen into this category of offenders.’

    For the most part they have set an
    excellent example of diligence in their
    attendance. This is as it should be,
    With the small representation that

    we enjoy, we can’t afford to have

    any of our elected members playing

    truant from their duties. at least

    Tt seems that the Atlantie Pro-

    Refineries of St. John decide to move

    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

    possibility; and, doubtless, others are

    It is understood
    mittee of APEC is now studying the

    the proposed move unnecessary. It is

    to be hoped that, with the co-opera-

    tion of all eoneerned, including the

    for The Guardian.

    LONDON — 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. — :

    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. :

    RESERVES GROWING

    For the ninth successive month
    Britain’s reserve of gold and dol-
    lars showed a substantial increase
    in June, The increse amounted to
    some 37 million dollars.
    brings the reserves up to the high-
    -est point for the last - seven
    ‘years—to $3,076,000,000. This is

    figure a year ago.

    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
    the United States Marshall Aid

    city regard the increase in. re-
    serves as highly gratifying in
    view of these payments. In June
    last year the addition to the re-
    serves was $13,000.000.

    ment made by the Chancellor of

    Britain’s economy is in better

    ‘balance that at any time in the

    last few years. He expressed the
    view that certain reductions in
    prices, working — 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.

    ‘ The levelling-of in ecommidity
    prices, particularly in foods is
    quite noticeable to the British
    housewife as she does her week-
    ly—or daily shopping. Lack of
    refrigerators makes daily shop-
    ping necessary over here.
    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 ‘weeks, 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.
    NEW ATLANTIC CABLES
    HMTS Iris, a post of ice cable
    ship, is now on the Atlantic mak-
    ing a survey of a route for a
    new transatlantic telephone ca-
    ble. This new cable of a spe-
    cial post office design, is to be
    laid from Oban, Scotland to New-
    foundland. On board the Iris,
    the very latest radio aids to na-~

    ner of the Canada Club in the

    the most-star-studded — functions
    we have ever had the privilege

    the guest and head table. lists,
    At the head table there were

    five British cabinet ministers, 12 |.

    knights, one baronet, four lords
    and one earl, an archbishop and
    three bishops, three high com-
    missioners and official represen-
    tatives of five other dominion
    countries.

    There was not room for all the
    notable figures at the head tab-
    les. We noted that seated in the
    hody of the banquet hall there
    were seven other knights, four
    baronets, three lords, and a
    member of parliament.

    We very much doubt if any
    Dominion Day function held in
    Canada on July 1st could boast
    such a galaxy of VIP’s in at-
    tendance.

    A zoologist says that giraffes
    are mute, Perhaps with their
    wide view of the world today
    they are too disgusted to say
    anything.-Edmonton Journal

    The best way of stretching ie

    open bottle in your car. Any pol-
    iceman will make a case out of
    it.—Stratford Beacon—Herald

    A Baltimore’ woman who was
    convicted of robbing a restaurant
    and tailor shop told the court
    that she forced her way in with
    a nail file, a lady's razor and
    eyebrow tweezers. Womanly in-
    genuity.—St. Thomas Times Jour-

    The Canadian Tuberculosis As-
    sociation reports that deaths from
    tuberculosis in Canada dropped
    in the period, 1951 to 1957, from
    3,417 to 1,183, a decline of nearly
    two-thirds. The fact that | free,
    chest X-rays are given much of
    the credit for this improvement.
    in the TV death rate must be a
    source of pride not only to the
    medical fraternity but also to the
    service club members who give
    their time and money to establish

    and promote the X-ray clinics. —
