No Assurance _
Commenting on President Kisen-
howerâs address to the Canadian
Parliament, the Manchester Guard-
janâa paper not given to wild ex-
aggerationâcalled it a case of ârub-
bing salt in the woundsâ. That just
about sums it up. yo ae
As far as can be seen in any pub-
lished statement, the President pro-
mised nothing, except to âconsiderââ
i, further Canadian complaints as they
| arise. Despite this, Federal Govern-
| ment leaders are going out of their
way to try and convince the Com-
mons and the public that from now
4 on there will be no such thing as an
| American boycott on Canadian sales
to China. There is no warrant for
this whatsoeverâassuming,; of
course, that the official statements
which came from the talks mean
what they say. : â
- According to the Prime .
: the President âexpressd the view
be applied in any way to the disad-
!
| No doubt, he did. But âexpressing a
â| viewâ is not at all the same thing as
|| making a commitment; and what the -
President may regard as âno disad- .
may, in fact, be a blow to it.
The only faint hope in regard to
U.S.-Canada trade relations, espec-
) jally as they concern American sub-
i sidiaries in Canada, is that in the
future American âconsiderationâ of
4 problems may be a little more fav-
ourable than it has been in the past.

ever; and it is idle te pretend that

particularly in the winter when

@ inery salesmen make the rounds by

4 ies use this method to cover quickly
rural parishes and circuits.

The Department of Agriculture re-

Agricultural Matters â
Col. John A. Macdonald, M.P. for
Kingâs, has done well to call the at-
tention of Parliament to the inade-
quacy of the Federal Farm Load
Board under. present conditions. The
terms under which loans are granted
âwhen they areâand the qualifica-
tions required of applicants are so °
rigid that only those farmers who can
get along without credit are in a pos-_
ition to obtain it. The young farmer
who is anxious to start out on his
own has no chance whatsoever, under
the provisions which now exist.
What is needed, as.Col. Macdonald â
pointed out, is something on the lines
of the Veteransâ Land Act, a âwell
âsupervised and controlledâ agency,
âbut not one that is so rigidly con-"}
trolled as to be utterly: useless to
the average farmef. It ought to be |
possible to work out a plan that
would give hope and: a reasonable
âmeasure of stability to young men
who are anxious to stay on the farm ©
or to acquire one of their own but |
who, under present conditions, are
obliged to-seek other employment,
often not to their liking. This is one
field, surely, where Federal-Provin- |
cial co-operation would pay dividends.
We are glad to note, too, that the
member for Kingâs had a word to say
in behalf of our potato producers.
The so-called âstabilizationâ price
plan offered producers this year was
doomed to failure from the start. It.
is an affront, to farmers to offer
them 36 cents a bushel. for potatoes
which cost more than a dollar a bush-
el toâ produce and to tell them that
only first grade potatoes would be
eligible for: payment. Every farmer
knows, if Federal agricultural of-
ficials do not, that there are few,
if any, first grade potatoes at this
time of year.

H. MacMillan and Quebec Cityâs
Dr. J. E. Bissonnette and. East
Simeoeâs Dr. P. B. Rynard are
among the doctors who are now
mons ayd who are in favour of
setting up a Committee on Health
and Welfare.
It is a strange thing that there
is no standing committee of the
House on our two largest-spend-
ing departments, Health and Wel-
is a standing committee on Ex-
ternal Affairs; there is one on
Agriculture and Colonization; on
Banking and Commerce; on Ve-
terans Affairs. There is even a
standing committee on-such com-
paratively trivial subjects as the
Library and the Restaurant.
But the Welfare State and the
Warfare State have both been
overlooked. .
In past years, topics related. to
Health and Welfare have -some-
mates Committee, and sometimes
âto the Committee on Industrial
Relations. Yet, even witha na-'
tional hospital insurance plan be-
ing set up as a first stop towards
a comprehensive national health
service, Parliament has never
seen fit to take advantage of the
presence in it âof fully qualified
medical men.
And Welfare :
: By Patrick Nicholson
- Special Correspondent for The Guardian
There are eight doctors of med-
yeine sitting in the House of Com-
mons now. They could form. aâ
useful and knowledgable kerned
committee studying health mat-
ters.
DOCTORS ON OFFER
Talk in the Lobbies suggests
that this long-standing oversight
many soon be put right. It is es-
pecially significant that mistakes
have been found in thé original
Health Insurance Bill, passed by
Parliament rather hurriedly just
_before the 1957 general election. |
Three amendments are contained
in a billâ before parliament now.
But it is as so often happens, a
committee of the Senate which
has beén thoroughly combing over
this matter.
_ Thus, some of the doctor m.p.âs
in both the Conservative and the
Liberal parties have been disucss-
ing this, and have made the un-
official proposal that a Health and
Welfare Committee should be set
up, ineluding some or all of their
number. Hon. Paul Martin, a for-
mer Minister of National Health
and Welfare, has endorsed this
suggestion in talking to me. And
the Liberal caucus has consider-
ed the proposal also, and in
general expressed its support.
Doctors are naturally especial-
ly interested in the new Health:
Insurance scheme. Many of; them
grow into something approaching
the unattractivé system of state
just. after the war. These hope
that freedom of choice will al-
âways be retained, through the op-
eration of the plan as an insur-
ance proposition, which will pro-
vide in case of illness the monéy
for such services as he wishes
to select. â
DIAGNOSIS IMPORTANT
In spite of the substantial in-
erease in the number of hospital
beds across Canada there is still
believed to be a serious shortage
in some areas. British Columbia
and Saskatchewan are said to bé
among theâ better equipped pro-
vinces in this régard, while Ont-
ario may be one of the worst.
When / the hospital insurance
plan is fully in effect, we will
perhaps see whether or not there
is any justification for the fears
that the hospital facilities will be
swamped. - : eT tt
One important aspect to this is
the matter of diagnosis. As the
original act stood, diagnostic ser-
patients, but not to out-patients.
Thus, in order to obtain the ser-
vices free under the hospital in-
âsurance plan, a patient would
have to occupy a bed. But ade-
quate diagnosis, including labor-
atory favided for patientsâ with-
out them oecupyng a scarce
bed-on an out-patient basis. This
is one of the corrections which is
typical of the advantages accru-
ing from a Health Committee,
such. as these doctors are now
privately proposing. ~â
The Liberals havenât yet per-
formed up to expectations-in the
role of Her Majesty's Loyal Op-
position.
âsThere are, of course, reasons.
The role-is one to which the
Liberals had long considered their
talents peculiarly unsuited and
which they accepted a year ago
only because the electors gave
them little or no choice in the
matter.
The Opposition is weak numer-,
ically. Forty-nine Liberals oppose
207 Conservatives. Or they would.
rather, if absenteeism were 28
thing of the past. Which, of cour-:
se, it is not,
âFurther, these Liberals lack op-
position experience after 23 un:
interrupted years in office. Stil!
further, the last two elections
tended to wipe the slate cieau
of political issues which they
would have been able to use to
advantage while serving a try-
ing and difficult period of ap-
prenticeship,
But none of these factors, and»
no, combination thereof, offers a
complete explanation of the rela-
tively weak showing of the Lib-:
erals in the House of Commons |'
up to the present. '
It isnât easy, of course, for a
party to make an impressive |-
showing in the Commons when it
can count on the services of only
49 M/P.âs. But after the elec-
tions of 1935 and 1940, the Con-
servatives had to make do as
best they could with only 39 elec-
ted supporters. In 1949, only. 4!
Conservatives. won election. And
the PCâs entered the 1943-57 Parl-
iament, during which they man-
aged to outslug the huge Liberal
machine on every occasion when
it counted, with only 51 support-
. ers. .
SUFFERS BY COMPARISON
Todayâs Liberal Opposition suf-
fers by comparison with those
Conservative groups of past years.
And it is now clear thatâthe qual-
ity of opposition offered by the
Conservatives during theirâ long
period in the desert, was under-
rated at the time.
This is all the more surprising
since the Conservatives lacked
fronthenchers with recent exper-
jence in the. administration: of
Government departmentsâan ad-
vantage which the Liberals. still
possess, though not on the same
lavish scale as during the last
Parliament, :

measure the strengths and weak-
nesses of the Liberals in Opposi-

years that it seemed in some

Under our system, an Opposi-
tion exists to: ââoppose by all con-
stitutional means.â It is expected
to criticize, to taunt, to question,
to tease, to scrutinize, to admon-
ish, to harry, to\inform, to warn
andâabove allâto oppose.
UNLIKELY CONVERTS
Assumption is that in these
days of intense party loyalty and
discipline, it isnât likely to~ con-
vert Government supporters by
its arguments and thus defeat
the Government in a Parliamen-
tary division, But it should, by
its efforts, be able to win addi-
tional public support, while at
the same time keeping the Gov-
ernment on its toes,
The efforts of the Liberals .to
perform these useful functions do
not appear to have been notahly

mance during the Throne Speech

Watch Out For
Summer Pests
By Herman N. Bundesen, M.D.
JIGGERS, the chiggers!
Be wary of these tiny red
mites during these pleasant sum-
mer days!
Trombicula irritans, or chig-
gers, as you probably call them,
are one of our worst summer-
time pests. While they are gen-
erally found in tall grass and
weeds, they also thrive in short
grass.
EASY TARGET :
Thus, even when you are lying
on the lawn in your own back:
yard, you may be an easy tar-
get for these bugs.
Chiggers do not burrow into
the skin as is generally believ-
éd. Instead, they hook onto the
âskin. And, once attached, they
feed on lymph or blood. This pro-
duces an irritation which is dif-
ficult, to imagine. d
Within 24 hours the itching be-
comes very intense. The inflam-
ed blisters which develop make
the skin appear as though it has
a rash.
DONâT SCRATCH! « :
Now I have already warned
you about thé danger of seratch-
ing vigorously to relieve an itch.
Scratching the irritation caused
by a chigger can easily produce
a secondary infection. â
Calamine lotion might help
ease the itching. If it doesnât,
hetter see your doctor and fol-
low his recommendations. He has
a lot of anti-itching medications
available and can give you one
specifically designed to aid such
cases. ?
Usually, the itching reaches its
peak on thé second or third day.
âThen, it bĂ©gins to subside, and in
a day or two you can forget about
it. X
ACT QUICKLY
You might alleviate the itching
somewhat by acting quickly once
you are bitten. Get into the bath-
ub right away and cover your
.Antire body, particularly the area
that was bitten, with a. heavy
soapy lather. d :
That should get rid of the
pesky little bug and any of his
comrades which might âhave
joined in the attack..
a chiggér-infested area, it will
pay: to take a few. precautions.
Sprinkle your stockings, and
perhaps your underclothing, too,
with flour of sulphur. Then the
little fellows will avoid you ' like
the plague.
QUESTION AND ANSWER.
T! C.: Is there any value in
eye exercisés of the muscles of
the eye in cases of néarsighted-
ness?
Answer: Although certain eve
exercises can train a person who
is nearsighted to see a little bet-
er, the actual deformity in focus-
ing is not corrected.
For the which cause I also suf-
fer these things: nevertheless 1
am not ashamed: for I know

No Assurance _
Commenting on President Kisen-
howerâs address to the Canadian
Parliament, the Manchester Guard-
janâa paper not given to wild ex-
aggerationâcalled it a case of ârub-
bing salt in the woundsâ. That just
about sums it up. yo ae
As far as can be seen in any pub-
lished statement, the President pro-
mised nothing, except to âconsiderââ
i, further Canadian complaints as they
| arise. Despite this, Federal Govern-
| ment leaders are going out of their
way to try and convince the Com-
mons and the public that from now
4 on there will be no such thing as an
| American boycott on Canadian sales
to China. There is no warrant for
this whatsoeverâassuming,; of
course, that the official statements
which came from the talks mean
what they say. : â
- According to the Prime .
: the President âexpressd the view
be applied in any way to the disad-
!
| No doubt, he did. But âexpressing a
â| viewâ is not at all the same thing as
|| making a commitment; and what the -
President may regard as âno disad- .
may, in fact, be a blow to it.
The only faint hope in regard to
U.S.-Canada trade relations, espec-
) jally as they concern American sub-
i sidiaries in Canada, is that in the
future American âconsiderationâ of
4 problems may be a little more fav-
ourable than it has been in the past.

ever; and it is idle te pretend that

particularly in the winter when

@ inery salesmen make the rounds by

rural parishes and circuits.

The Department of Agriculture re-

indirectly World War II spurred ag-
ricultural flying, as young airmen

of flying farmers. Also. the report
gives credit. to the Department. of

Agricultural Matters â
Col. John A. Macdonald, M.P. for
Kingâs, has done well to call the at-
tention of Parliament to the inade-
quacy of the Federal Farm Load
Board under. present conditions. The
terms under which loans are granted
âwhen they areâand the qualifica-
tions required of applicants are so °
rigid that only those farmers who can
get along without credit are in a pos-_
ition to obtain it. The young farmer
who is anxious to start out on his
own has no chance whatsoever, under
the provisions which now exist.
What is needed, as.Col. Macdonald â
pointed out, is something on the lines
of the Veteransâ Land Act, a âwell
âsupervised and controlledâ agency,
âbut not one that is so rigidly con-"}
trolled as to be utterly: useless to
the average farmef. It ought to be |
possible to work out a plan that
would give hope and: a reasonable
âmeasure of stability to young men
who are anxious to stay on the farm ©
or to acquire one of their own but |
who, under present conditions, are
obliged to-seek other employment,
often not to their liking. This is one
field, surely, where Federal-Provin- |
cial co-operation would pay dividends.
We are glad to note, too, that the
member for Kingâs had a word to say
in behalf of our potato producers.
The so-called âstabilizationâ price
plan offered producers this year was
doomed to failure from the start. It.
is an affront, to farmers to offer
them 36 cents a bushel. for potatoes
which cost more than a dollar a bush-
el toâ produce and to tell them that
only first grade potatoes would be
eligible for: payment. Every farmer
knows, if Federal agricultural of-
ficials do not, that there are few,
if any, first grade potatoes at this
time of year.

OTTAWA â Wellandâs Dr. W.
H. MacMillan and Quebec Cityâs
Dr. J. E. Bissonnette and. East
Simeoeâs Dr. P. B. Rynard are
among the doctors who are now
mons ayd who are in favour of
setting up a Committee on Health
and Welfare.
It is a strange thing that there
is no standing committee of the
House on our two largest-spend-
ing departments, Health and Wel-
is a standing committee on Ex-
ternal Affairs; there is one on
Agriculture and Colonization; on
Banking and Commerce; on Ve-
terans Affairs. There is even a
standing committee on-such com-
paratively trivial subjects as the
Library and the Restaurant.
But the Welfare State and the
Warfare State have both been
overlooked. .
In past years, topics related. to
Health and Welfare have -some-
mates Committee, and sometimes
âto the Committee on Industrial
Relations. Yet, even witha na-'
tional hospital insurance plan be-
ing set up as a first stop towards
a comprehensive national health
service, Parliament has never
seen fit to take advantage of the
presence in it âof fully qualified
medical men.
And Welfare :
: By Patrick Nicholson
- Special Correspondent for The Guardian
There are eight doctors of med-
yeine sitting in the House of Com-
mons now. They could form. aâ
useful and knowledgable kerned
committee studying health mat-
ters.
DOCTORS ON OFFER
Talk in the Lobbies suggests
that this long-standing oversight
many soon be put right. It is es-
pecially significant that mistakes
have been found in thé original
Health Insurance Bill, passed by
Parliament rather hurriedly just
_before the 1957 general election. |
Three amendments are contained
in a billâ before parliament now.
But it is as so often happens, a
committee of the Senate which
has beén thoroughly combing over
this matter.
_ Thus, some of the doctor m.p.âs
in both the Conservative and the
Liberal parties have been disucss-
ing this, and have made the un-
official proposal that a Health and
Welfare Committee should be set
up, ineluding some or all of their
number. Hon. Paul Martin, a for-
mer Minister of National Health
and Welfare, has endorsed this
suggestion in talking to me. And
the Liberal caucus has consider-
ed the proposal also, and in
general expressed its support.
Doctors are naturally especial-
ly interested in the new Health:
Insurance scheme. Many of; them
grow into something approaching
the unattractivé system of state
just. after the war. These hope
that freedom of choice will al-
âways be retained, through the op-
eration of the plan as an insur-
ance proposition, which will pro-
vide in case of illness the monéy
for such services as he wishes
to select. â
DIAGNOSIS IMPORTANT
In spite of the substantial in-
erease in the number of hospital
beds across Canada there is still
believed to be a serious shortage
in some areas. British Columbia
and Saskatchewan are said to bé
among theâ better equipped pro-
vinces in this régard, while Ont-
ario may be one of the worst.
When / the hospital insurance
plan is fully in effect, we will
perhaps see whether or not there
is any justification for the fears
that the hospital facilities will be
swamped. - : eT tt
One important aspect to this is
the matter of diagnosis. As the
original act stood, diagnostic ser-
patients, but not to out-patients.
Thus, in order to obtain the ser-
vices free under the hospital in-
âsurance plan, a patient would
have to occupy a bed. But ade-
quate diagnosis, including labor-
atory favided for patientsâ with-
out them oecupyng a scarce
bed-on an out-patient basis. This
is one of the corrections which is
typical of the advantages accru-
ing from a Health Committee,
such. as these doctors are now
privately proposing. ~â
The Liberals havenât yet per-
formed up to expectations-in the
role of Her Majesty's Loyal Op-
position.
âsThere are, of course, reasons.
The role-is one to which the
Liberals had long considered their
talents peculiarly unsuited and
which they accepted a year ago
only because the electors gave
them little or no choice in the
matter.
The Opposition is weak numer-,
ically. Forty-nine Liberals oppose
207 Conservatives. Or they would.
rather, if absenteeism were 28
thing of the past. Which, of cour-:
se, it is not,
âFurther, these Liberals lack op-
position experience after 23 un:
interrupted years in office. Stil!
further, the last two elections
tended to wipe the slate cieau
of political issues which they
would have been able to use to
advantage while serving a try-
ing and difficult period of ap-
prenticeship,
But none of these factors, and»
no, combination thereof, offers a
complete explanation of the rela-
tively weak showing of the Lib-:
erals in the House of Commons |'
up to the present. '
It isnât easy, of course, for a
party to make an impressive |-
showing in the Commons when it
can count on the services of only
49 M/P.âs. But after the elec-
tions of 1935 and 1940, the Con-
servatives had to make do as
best they could with only 39 elec-
ted supporters. In 1949, only. 4!
Conservatives. won election. And
the PCâs entered the 1943-57 Parl-
iament, during which they man-
aged to outslug the huge Liberal
machine on every occasion when
it counted, with only 51 support-
. ers. .
SUFFERS BY COMPARISON
Todayâs Liberal Opposition suf-
fers by comparison with those
Conservative groups of past years.
And it is now clear thatâthe qual-
ity of opposition offered by the
Conservatives during theirâ long
period in the desert, was under-
rated at the time.
This is all the more surprising
since the Conservatives lacked
fronthenchers with recent exper-
jence in the. administration: of
Government departmentsâan ad-
vantage which the Liberals. still
possess, though not on the same
lavish scale as during the last
Parliament, :
But it is probably unfair to
measure the strengths and weak-
nesses of the Liberals in Opposi-

years that it seemed in some

Under our system, an Opposi-
tion exists to: ââoppose by all con-
stitutional means.â It is expected
to criticize, to taunt, to question,
to tease, to scrutinize, to admon-
ish, to harry, to\inform, to warn
andâabove allâto oppose.
UNLIKELY CONVERTS
Assumption is that in these
days of intense party loyalty and
discipline, it isnât likely to~ con-
vert Government supporters by
its arguments and thus defeat
the Government in a Parliamen-
tary division, But it should, by
its efforts, be able to win addi-
tional public support, while at
the same time keeping the Gov-
ernment on its toes,
The efforts of the Liberals .to
perform these useful functions do
not appear to have been notahly
successful so far, Their perfor-
mance during the Throne Speech
debate attracted little attention

parison with that of the Hazen

tively easy target, marked as it
was by a huge deficit and a few
minor concessions to the taxpay-

not been of a kind calculated to

Watch Out For
Summer Pests
By Herman N. Bundesen, M.D.
JIGGERS, the chiggers!
Be wary of these tiny red
mites during these pleasant sum-
mer days!
Trombicula irritans, or chig-
gers, as you probably call them,
are one of our worst summer-
time pests. While they are gen-
erally found in tall grass and
weeds, they also thrive in short
grass.
EASY TARGET :
Thus, even when you are lying
on the lawn in your own back:
yard, you may be an easy tar-
get for these bugs.
Chiggers do not burrow into
the skin as is generally believ-
éd. Instead, they hook onto the
âskin. And, once attached, they
feed on lymph or blood. This pro-
duces an irritation which is dif-
ficult, to imagine. d
Within 24 hours the itching be-
comes very intense. The inflam-
ed blisters which develop make
the skin appear as though it has
a rash.
DONâT SCRATCH! « :
Now I have already warned
you about thé danger of seratch-
ing vigorously to relieve an itch.
Scratching the irritation caused
by a chigger can easily produce
a secondary infection. â
Calamine lotion might help
ease the itching. If it doesnât,
hetter see your doctor and fol-
low his recommendations. He has
a lot of anti-itching medications
available and can give you one
specifically designed to aid such
cases. ?
Usually, the itching reaches its
peak on thé second or third day.
âThen, it bĂ©gins to subside, and in
a day or two you can forget about
it. X
ACT QUICKLY
You might alleviate the itching
somewhat by acting quickly once
you are bitten. Get into the bath-
ub right away and cover your
.Antire body, particularly the area
that was bitten, with a. heavy
soapy lather. d :
That should get rid of the
pesky little bug and any of his
comrades which might âhave
joined in the attack..
a chiggér-infested area, it will
pay: to take a few. precautions.
Sprinkle your stockings, and
perhaps your underclothing, too,
with flour of sulphur. Then the
little fellows will avoid you ' like
the plague.
QUESTION AND ANSWER.
T! C.: Is there any value in
eye exercisés of the muscles of
the eye in cases of néarsighted-
ness?
Answer: Although certain eve
exercises can train a person who
is nearsighted to see a little bet-
er, the actual deformity in focus-
ing is not corrected.
For the which cause I also suf-
fer these things: nevertheless 1
am not ashamed: for I know

which I have committed unto
Him against that day. 2
