Much Ado About What?

It seems outrageous to Hon, Hugh
John Flemming, former Conserva-
tive revenue minister, that the Lib-
erals should make changes in the
Atlantic Development Board Act to
allow for the enlargement of the
board’s personnel and to provide a
$100,000,000 capital fund for its ac-
tivities. The changes are in line with
Liberal criticism of the board's set-
up when it was first proposed in
the House by Mr. Flemming, and
there is nothing surprising in the
fact that they are now being put
into effect. Nor do we see why the
usefulness of the board should be
handicapped as a result.

The board, in any case, will act
in an advisory capacity. Its recom-
mendations will be for the Govern-
ment to implement or not, as it
sees fit. And, from the practical
point of view, there is an advantage
in having Liberal as well as Con-
servative appointees on the board,
to keep it on an even keel. There
was always the danger, under the
setup as mooted by Mr. Flemming,
that it would go off on some wild-

; goose chase to the detriment of

more practical objectives. The Chig-
necto Canal “complex”, for ex-
ample, about which we have heard
so much in the past from both the
former minister and the board chair-
man, Mr. Wardell.

Our junior member for Queens,
Macquarrie, has entered this
we
think. He is quoted in a Canadian
Press report as asking Mr. Pickers-
gill whether the board would study
the proposed causeway across

. Northumberland Strait as a possible

project. Mr. Pickersgill’s reply was

; that Mr. Macquarrie must have been

asleep in 1957 when Mr. Diefen-
baker, then Prime Minister, an-
nounced that the feasibility studies

“The legislation submitted te you
will be designed to make the new
plan operative as soon as possible,”
the Speech said. That was all.

Miss LaMarsh went far beyond
that in giving her Hamilton audi-
ence the low-down. She said the con-
tributory plan would be compulsory
for all wage earners, cover incomes
up to $500 a month, would not inter-
fere with existing private plans and
would ensure that pension rights
were portable throughout Canada.
And Mr. Knowles says, rightly, that
he considers this a case of ignoring
Parliament. He says the Govern-
ment was asked for such details in
the House and the questioners were
told to be patient.

Perhaps this was just an act of
thoughtlessness on Health Minister
LaMarsh’s part. In any case, it calls
for a more satisfactory reply than
the one she has given.

Now It’s Ontario

It is disquieting to note that
Ontario’s Premier John Robarts has
thrown his government’s support
behind Premier Jean Lesage’s tax
ultimatum to Ottawa. In an address
in Quebec City last weekend which
had all the earmarks of a new
Quebec-Ontario entente, Mr. Rob-
arts told Mr. Lesage there must
be “a most drastic reallocation of
our taxes,” and indicated that his
government is ready to co-operate
with Quebec in seeking this kind of
reform.

Premier Lesage has demanded
that Ottawa return to Quebec at
least 25 per cent of corporation and
income taxes and 100 per cent of
succession duties. Premier Robarts
now says: “I cannot find your for-
mula too unreasonable.” Both prov-
inces, he adds, have “massive ob-
ligations clearly assigned to us by
our constitution” which can only
be met in the manner proposed.

Where does this leave the At-
lantic Provinces, which have been
enjoying some measure of relief of
late years, under the tax sharing
agreements, from the disadvantages
imposed upon them by Confedera-
tion? The Gordon budget made no
concessions to Quebec or Ontario in
this regard, but there is a federal-
provincial conference coming up, at
which the tax sharing agreements
will be one of the major items to be
discussed. It is scheduled to meet
in Halifax during the first week of
August,

That is when the heat will be
turned on.

Friendly Invasion

Something new in the way of
trade opportunities has been provid-
ed by a proclamation issued by the
Mayor of Philadelphia, who has de-
creed November 11-16 to be “Can-
ada Week” in that city. During the
week, Philadelphia will play host to

on the causeway were and
that the causeway was being built.

Now that both the major parties
have definitely accepted the cause-

, Way as being in the planning stage,

why can’t Mr. Macquarrie leave it
at that? What concern is it of the
Atlantic Development Board? We
pointed this out before, when Mr.
Flemming was sounding off to the
same effect; and we owe it to Mr.
Pickersgill that he promptly
straightened the minister out on the
subject at that time.

It is depressing to have this red
herring trotted out again, and by
one of our own Island members.

Miss LaMarsh’s Lapses

Health. Minister Judy LaMarsh
has acknowledged her indiscretion
in “lighting up” in public view after
lecturing a Hamilton audience on
cigarets as a health menace, and she

\ has now quit smoking altogether.
' But another lapse, more serious

politically, has been charged in con-
nection with her speech on that oc-
easion. Her accuser is Mr. Stanley

} Knowles, who complains that Miss

LaMarsh gave the Hamilton Liberal

i
}

lation which should have been given
to Parliament first.

Miss LaMarsh’s excuse is that
she used the information contained
in Liberal party literature of 1962

+ and 1963, but that hasn’t gone over

very well with Mr, Knowles. Ue
says that Parliament i interested in

a friendly invasion of Canadians par-
ticipating in a major sales program
spearheaded by the Department of
Trade and Commerce.

A feature of the week will be an
all-Canadian trade fair, aimed at
capturing for Canadian products a
greater share of the lucrative Phil-
adelphia market. This area is the
fourth largest retail market in the
United States, but one that has
hardly been tapped by Canadian ex-
porters. Mr. W.J. Millyard, Cana-
dian Trade Commissioner in Phil-
adelphia, reports that it has an an-
nual cash income of $58 billion—
greater than Canada’s gross nation-
al product.

Preparations for the fair are al-
ready in high gear. More than half
the space has been snapped up and
requests are coming in daily. Pro-
ducts already in the show include a
wide range of Canadian manufac-
tures, from home freezers to bottle
openers.

What about our processed food
products from the Garden of the
Gulf? This would seem to be a good
opportunity for displaying them.
The federal department hopes to
have representatives from all ten
provinces, and a wink is as good as
a nod in an invitation of this kind.
But time is running out. At the pres-
ent rate, says the department, space
will soon be at a premium.

Gave Wide-Ranging Keynote Address

“A statesman thinks of the
next generation, but a politician
thinks merely of the next elec-
tion.”

This new twist to the distine-
tion between the profound and
the shallow in public life was
given by Heath Macquarie
when delivering the keynote
address at the annual meeting
of the Ontario Young Progres-
Conservative Association
last week.

His speech was the speech of
a deep thinker; for Heath Mac-

Kenzie King era by saying that
it has “few attributes which
one would describe as glorious
or bright.”

Laurier, Macquarrie remind-
ed his audience, was defeated
by Canadian voters who reject-
ed his proposal for reciprocal
free trade with U.S. in a wide
range of manufactured articles
and natural products. He quot-
ed an almost forgotten comment
by Rudyard Kipling, which he
said made a great {mpression
at that time. Kipling warned |

our Foreign Minister during the
recent Conservative regime,
and as a Canadian delegate at
various international gath-
erings. Perhaps he feels. as
statesman anq not as politician,
that the warning of Rudyard
Kipling may soon appeal to Ca-
nadians once more, when the
choice must be made between
an economic link with the U.S.
and membership in a wider,
less submerging Atlantic Com-
mon Market.

out all but two years of the
young state's existence, the
strong-willed old warrior has
been constantly plagued by the
necessity of accommodating the
conflicting pressures of the
three or four minor parties that
he depended upon for survival.
SOUGHT REFORMS

He has vainly sought reform
of Israel's electoral system,
which allots parliamentary
seats to the parties in accord-
ance with their percentage of
the popular vote. In five elec-
tions, no party has ever suc-
ceeded in achieving anything
close to a majority in the Knes-
set.

A lifetime of devotion to the
Zionist cause and the country’s
phenomenal achievements un-
der his leadership have
Ben-Gurion a truly Churchillian
figure. With his flowing white
hair and invariable open-necked
shirt, even on ceremonial oc
casions, he is instantly recog-
nizable to Israeli and foreigner
alike.

Yet there are indications that
this time his sprawling adver-
saries may pick themselves up,
dust themselves off and tell the
old man to take his rope and
go home to the kibbutz in the

years ‘in isolation
before mci to the political
arena,

Even among his colleagues of
Mapai, the moderate socialist
party that has consistently
headed the polls, Ben-Gurion
has been subjected to growing
criticism, Like Germany's Kon-
rad Adenauer, he has been ac.
cused of deliberately shunting
Potential successors to the side-

LABOR COMPLAINS

Smaller labor parties, Mapai’s
natural allies, complained that
Ben-Gurion ignored their repre.
sentatives in his top political
and diplomatic appointments,
Secular politicians deplored his
concessions to the orthodox re-
ligious parties in return for
their votes on key issues.

Recently Ben-Gurion has been
under heavy fire for his efforts
to improve relations with West
Germany, still blamed by many
Israelis for the Nazi slaughter

000,000 Jews during the Sec-
ond World War. A number of
protest demonstrations were or-
ganized by various factions of
the left and right during the
recent visit of Franz Jose
Strauss, former West German
defence minister.

In addition, the premier's op-
ponents accused him of cover-
ing up investigations into al.
leged security leaks.

Yet, there is little indication
that Israel's divided politicians,
whose party allegiances ara
older and, according to some
observers, stronger than their
ties to the new state, are likely
to harmonize their ‘differences
if the old man goes.

Though they have been hos:
tile to Ben-Gurion’s leadership,
his previous two years out of
office offered no evidence that
they were any happier without
it.
