Emphasis On Training
Plans for the training of Island
fishermen are to be investigated by
the Provincial department of fish--
eries, as indicated by Deputy Min-
ister Eugene Gorman following his
return from attending a fisheries
conference Kurope, This is a
move deserving of every support.
Mr. Gorman made good use of his
time abroad, and he noted particu-
larly the expert training which Nor-
wegian fishermen receive. Similar
training here, he believes, would al-
low our fishermen to handle their
equipment to better advantage, and
this was necessary if they hoped to
compete adequately with foreign
fishermen off our shores.
Mr. Gormanâs statement {s in
line with the views expressed by
fishery officials in other provinces
and at Ottawa. Concerted action is
being planned, and Federal Minister
Robichaud has indicated that a na-
tional conference for the discussion
of a Canadian fishery expansion
program may meet this fall or early
winter. He has asked for provincial
proposals as to what the program
should involve.
Last week Mr. Robichaud ad-
dressed the Newfoundland Le gis-
lature on this subject, making the
same point which Mr. Gorman made
in commenting on the situation in
this province. âCanadaâs fishermen,â
he said, âhave not. yet applied the
technical knowledge available, and
they must be trained and educated
to use the latest techniques.â The
decision to implement the 12-mile
fishery limit would give protection
to Canadian fishermen, but the time
has come for providing training
facilities as well.
The federal minister reported
that all ten provinces have shown
âtremendous interestâ in the pro-
posed conference, which could havi
far-reaching results on the economy
of this Atlantic area.

Demanding Deeper Probe
How to rebuild, after the Pro-
fumo scandal, Britainâs badly tar-
nished intelligence and security ser-
vices? That is the question, and it
is doubtful whether Prime Minister
Macmillanâs refusal to yield to Labor
demands for an all-party commit-
tee of investigation, and his decis-
ion to substitute a one-man judicial
inquiry instead, will satisfy the
public mind. For after the damag-
ing admissions made by the Prime
Minister himself on the subject,
there can be no illusions about Brit-
feh security in any quarter.
! Mr. Harold Wilson, on this point,
reminded the House of Commons
that the British Government. spends
ÂŁ60,000,000 (or $168,000,000) a year
on its security services and it was
a Sunday newspaper which was
largely responsible for tracking
down the Profumo story. As read
{nto the parliamentary debate, âthat
story was enoughâin the words of
one British commentatorâââto make
our alliesâ hair stand on end.â
What is expected from these
revelations is that the security ser-
vice will be probed to its depths and
appropriate action taken. Mr. Wil-
gon maintains that an inquiry by
@ judge would be âtotally inadequate
to allay public anxietyâââthat its
terms of reference would be far too
narrow to deal with the matter.
What he wants is a select all-party
eommittes of the Commons with
power to call any witnesses, includ-
ing Mr. Macmillan and his colleag-
wes and ex-War Minister John
mo, ts
gg Meanwhile the question of Mr.
Macmillanâs political future remains
unclear, He seems to be looking for-
ward to remaining in office, and his
party followers are reportedly clos-
ing ranks in support of this view.
Even the London Times, however,
reports that in Westminster it is
taken for granted that Mr. Mac-
millan will not lead the Conserva-
tives at the next election and that
therefore no time should be lost in
establishing his suscessor,
Much will depend, perhaps,
how the security inquiry is prose-
cuted and what results it achieves.
The Riddle Of âFluâ
Since the great epidemic of in-
fluenza after World War I the ob-
stinately recurrent disease has been
keeping investigators busy. Hardly
has a âflu virus been brought under
control but it disappears and an en-
tirely different one takes its place.
The last âflu epidemic, of 1957-58,
for example, was engineered by a
virus called A 2, which had replac-
ed A 1, the successor of A plain,
the âclassicalâ germ of 1918.
The first variety of A 1
from 1934 to 1947, to be followed
by the second variety which in 1957
handed over to âAsiaâ, In
1963, A2 is scar found any
more, according to Professor H. Lip-
pelt, of the department of ship and
tropical diseases in the great port
hospital of Hamburg, Germany.
Presumably 3 is s
retly maturing somewhere for
next run. Types B and C,
minor importance, are now
of sporadic occurrence.
The worst of it is that the va
ous âflus differ serologically. All are
âantigensâ, which means they evoke
in the infected body the formation
of antibodies fitting their shapes as
a key fits a lock. These antibodies
render the germs innocuous. People
who have had a flu usually develop
a good degree of immunity to the
virus concerned. But âflu now alters
the lock by sending a new virus, and
the old key no longer fits the new
lock.
When A 2 came in 1957,
was immune to it, since all antibod-
jes were of the A 1 pattern. Like
some generals, our bodies always
prepare for the last war instead of
the next one. Small wonder âflu
took a heavy toll, infecting more
than 80 per cent of the diverse
populations. A 2 can do us little
harmâsay the scientis since we
are stuffed with aatitbinstics against
this type; but, as was said before,
âflu is likely to come with some new
and different germ the next time.
The Cold Shoulder
The Peking Review, principal
external propaganda vehicle of the
Peking government, makes curious
reading these days. The latest issue
completely ignores the existence of
the Soviet Union.
There are ample references to
allegedly wicked capitalistic powers
and their machinations. India, too,
and Indonesia, Korea and Japan, all
exist in the Chinese Communist
picture of the world. Romania has
purportedly improved its scientific
and technical relations with China
and hence presumably exists. North
Korea looms large on the Peking
versions of the globe and workers
in the Congo are said to be in solid-
arity with Chinese .workersâa
singular achievement if true.
But nowhere does the Soviet
Union appear in the world of the
Peking Review. One of its most re-
markabe achievements was to pro-
duce in its January issue an article
on Cubaâs strained relations with
the United States without once
mentioning or recognizing the exist-
ence of the Soviet Union or Soviet
influence, Soviet weapons, and So-
viet interest in Cuba.
The West sits and waits for this
situation to clarify. Presumably any-
thing could happen at the July 5
meeting of the two Communist pow-
ers in Moscowâanything, as one
commentator has expressed it, from
a total break to a total reconcilia-
tion. Existing signs and portents do
not appear to point to total recon-
ciliation.

he is currently serving a 3-year
re-appointment which expires
âon 30 September. And while other
Canadians are perhaps enjoy- |
ing a light-hearted Shakespear- |

dream, the harassed Mr. Gor-
don is possibly suffering a poli-

nightmare.
Donald Gordon was born
village Okimeldrum,
near Aberdeen. He was brought
out to Canada as a child, and
at 13 got his first job selling
newspapers in the street in Tor- |
onto, Two years later he started |
as a clerk in the Bank of Nova
Scotia: and in 21 years he
climbed so successfully up the
banking ladder that at the ear-
ly age of 36 the brilliant Scot
was appointed deputy-governor |
of the Bank of Canada.

Dangerous Press Control
Winnipeg Free Press
A good rule-of-thumb by which
to determine the nature of a
government is the measure of
latitude permitted the press of
the country concerned. In a de-
mocracy, as we understand. the
term, the press is free to critic-
ize the government and govern-
ment offi 1esâ al-
ways, of course, within the lim-
its imposed by the laws of libel.
âThis at times makes things un-
pleasant for those ciricized. But
more often it results in greater
efficiency and honesty on the
part of the government.
In a totalitarian state, how- |
ever â be it Fascist or Com-
munist â the government can-
not afford to permit the press
such latitude. Criticism of the
government and of officials
might start people thinking; and

Busy men have always resent-

shaving. There are indeed theor-
ists who hold that in the truly
significant eras of history, when
life has been rich and full and
e mind of man has spilled |
over with new ideas and discov-
eries, men have gone bearded
simply because they have not
had time to stop and shave.
It is an attractive theory, an
it would be a pity to spoil it by
looking as it too closely. Better
perhaps to remember some of
those enterprising characters
who have thought of ways of
improving the shining, shaving
inutes by combining some oth-
mint
er activity with this part of the
daily routine.
Who, pinning up a piece of
print or a list of words beside
the shaving mirror, have got
sonnets off by heart, or dates, or
French verbs. Or who, prefering
a more creative accompaniment
to the morning ritual, give them-

able to declare, as Lord Amory

Emphasis On Training
Plans for the training of Island
fishermen are to be investigated by
the Provincial department of fish--
eries, as indicated by Deputy Min-
ister Eugene Gorman following his
return from attending a fisheries
conference Kurope, This is a
move deserving of every support.
Mr. Gorman made good use of his
time abroad, and he noted particu-
larly the expert training which Nor-
wegian fishermen receive. Similar
training here, he believes, would al-
low our fishermen to handle their
equipment to better advantage, and
this was necessary if they hoped to
compete adequately with foreign
fishermen off our shores.
Mr. Gormanâs statement {s in
line with the views expressed by
fishery officials in other provinces
and at Ottawa. Concerted action is
being planned, and Federal Minister
Robichaud has indicated that a na-
tional conference for the discussion
of a Canadian fishery expansion
program may meet this fall or early
winter. He has asked for provincial
proposals as to what the program
should involve.
Last week Mr. Robichaud ad-
dressed the Newfoundland Le gis-
lature on this subject, making the
same point which Mr. Gorman made
in commenting on the situation in
this province. âCanadaâs fishermen,â
he said, âhave not. yet applied the
technical knowledge available, and
they must be trained and educated
to use the latest techniques.â The
decision to implement the 12-mile
fishery limit would give protection
to Canadian fishermen, but the time
has come for providing training
facilities as well.
The federal minister reported
that all ten provinces have shown
âtremendous interestâ in the pro-
posed conference, which could havi
far-reaching results on the economy
of this Atlantic area.

Demanding Deeper Probe
How to rebuild, after the Pro-
fumo scandal, Britainâs badly tar-
nished intelligence and security ser-
vices? That is the question, and it
is doubtful whether Prime Minister
Macmillanâs refusal to yield to Labor
demands for an all-party commit-
tee of investigation, and his decis-
ion to substitute a one-man judicial
inquiry instead, will satisfy the
public mind. For after the damag-
ing admissions made by the Prime
Minister himself on the subject,
there can be no illusions about Brit-
feh security in any quarter.
! Mr. Harold Wilson, on this point,
reminded the House of Commons
that the British Government. spends
ÂŁ60,000,000 (or $168,000,000) a year
on its security services and it was
a Sunday newspaper which was
largely responsible for tracking
down the Profumo story. As read
{nto the parliamentary debate, âthat
story was enoughâin the words of
one British commentatorâââto make
our alliesâ hair stand on end.â
What is expected from these
revelations is that the security ser-
vice will be probed to its depths and
appropriate action taken. Mr. Wil-
gon maintains that an inquiry by
@ judge would be âtotally inadequate
to allay public anxietyâââthat its
terms of reference would be far too
narrow to deal with the matter.
What he wants is a select all-party
eommittes of the Commons with
power to call any witnesses, includ-
ing Mr. Macmillan and his colleag-
wes and ex-War Minister John
mo, ts
gg Meanwhile the question of Mr.
Macmillanâs political future remains
unclear, He seems to be looking for-
ward to remaining in office, and his
party followers are reportedly clos-
ing ranks in support of this view.
Even the London Times, however,
reports that in Westminster it is
taken for granted that Mr. Mac-
millan will not lead the Conserva-
tives at the next election and that
therefore no time should be lost in
establishing his suscessor,
Much will depend, perhaps,
how the security inquiry is prose-
cuted and what results it achieves.
The Riddle Of âFluâ
Since the great epidemic of in-
fluenza after World War I the ob-
stinately recurrent disease has been
keeping investigators busy. Hardly
has a âflu virus been brought under
control but it disappears and an en-
tirely different one takes its place.
The last âflu epidemic, of 1957-58,
for example, was engineered by a
virus called A 2, which had replac-
ed A 1, the successor of A plain,
the âclassicalâ germ of 1918.
The first variety of A 1
from 1934 to 1947, to be followed
by the second variety which in 1957
handed over to âAsiaâ, In
1963, A2 is scar found any
more, according to Professor H. Lip-
pelt, of the department of ship and
tropical diseases in the great port
hospital of Hamburg, Germany.
Presumably 3 is s
retly maturing somewhere for
next run. Types B and C,
minor importance, are now
of sporadic occurrence.
The worst of it is that the va
ous âflus differ serologically. All are
âantigensâ, which means they evoke
in the infected body the formation
of antibodies fitting their shapes as
a key fits a lock. These antibodies
render the germs innocuous. People
who have had a flu usually develop
a good degree of immunity to the
virus concerned. But âflu now alters
the lock by sending a new virus, and
the old key no longer fits the new
lock.
When A 2 came in 1957,
was immune to it, since all antibod-
jes were of the A 1 pattern. Like
some generals, our bodies always
prepare for the last war instead of
the next one. Small wonder âflu
took a heavy toll, infecting more
than 80 per cent of the diverse
populations. A 2 can do us little
harmâsay the scientis since we
are stuffed with aatitbinstics against
this type; but, as was said before,
âflu is likely to come with some new
and different germ the next time.
The Cold Shoulder
The Peking Review, principal
external propaganda vehicle of the
Peking government, makes curious
reading these days. The latest issue
completely ignores the existence of
the Soviet Union.
There are ample references to
allegedly wicked capitalistic powers
and their machinations. India, too,
and Indonesia, Korea and Japan, all
exist in the Chinese Communist
picture of the world. Romania has
purportedly improved its scientific
and technical relations with China
and hence presumably exists. North
Korea looms large on the Peking
versions of the globe and workers
in the Congo are said to be in solid-
arity with Chinese .workersâa
singular achievement if true.
But nowhere does the Soviet
Union appear in the world of the
Peking Review. One of its most re-
markabe achievements was to pro-
duce in its January issue an article
on Cubaâs strained relations with
the United States without once
mentioning or recognizing the exist-
ence of the Soviet Union or Soviet
influence, Soviet weapons, and So-
viet interest in Cuba.
The West sits and waits for this
situation to clarify. Presumably any-
thing could happen at the July 5
meeting of the two Communist pow-
ers in Moscowâanything, as one
commentator has expressed it, from
a total break to a total reconcilia-
tion. Existing signs and portents do
not appear to point to total recon-
ciliation.

he is currently serving a 3-year

Canadians are perhaps enjoy- |

Donald Gordon was born
village Okimeldrum,
near Aberdeen. He was brought
out to Canada as a child, and
at 13 got his first job selling
newspapers in the street in Tor- |

as a clerk in the Bank of Nova
Scotia: and in 21 years he
climbed so successfully up the
banking ladder that at the ear-

Dangerous Press Control
Winnipeg Free Press
A good rule-of-thumb by which
to determine the nature of a
government is the measure of
latitude permitted the press of
the country concerned. In a de-
mocracy, as we understand. the
term, the press is free to critic-
ize the government and govern-
ment offi 1esâ al-
ways, of course, within the lim-
its imposed by the laws of libel.
âThis at times makes things un-
pleasant for those ciricized. But
more often it results in greater
efficiency and honesty on the
part of the government.
In a totalitarian state, how- |
ever â be it Fascist or Com-
munist â the government can-
not afford to permit the press
such latitude. Criticism of the
government and of officials
might start people thinking; and

Busy men have always resent-

shaving. There are indeed theor-
ists who hold that in the truly
significant eras of history, when
life has been rich and full and
e mind of man has spilled |
over with new ideas and discov-
eries, men have gone bearded
simply because they have not
had time to stop and shave.
It is an attractive theory, an
it would be a pity to spoil it by
looking as it too closely. Better
perhaps to remember some of
those enterprising characters
who have thought of ways of
improving the shining, shaving
inutes by combining some oth-
mint
er activity with this part of the
daily routine.
Who, pinning up a piece of
print or a list of words beside
the shaving mirror, have got
sonnets off by heart, or dates, or
French verbs. Or who, prefering
a more creative accompaniment
to the morning ritual, give them-
selves up to rumination and are
able to declare, as Lord Amory
