Sees Bright Prospects
Of interest to all concerned in
the Atlantic fisheries industry were |
the remarks of the Hon. H.J. Robi- |
chaud, federal Minister of Fisher-
ies, at the opening yesterday in
Lunenburg of the 27th Nova Scotia
fisheries exhibition. Mr. Robichand
dealt, among other things, with the
growth of dragger and scallop fleets
in recent times, with the brighten-
ing prospects in the industry and
with federal plans for cooperating
with the provinces in developing
every phase of its resources.
He made reference to the big
processing plants now being plan-
med for Lunenburg, Canso and
Georgetown, and predicted that be-
fore the next Lunenburg exhibition,
Canada will have implemented the
establishment of the 12-mile ex-
clusive fishing zone off its coast-
lines as announced by Prime Mini:
ter Pearson last June. But there
were other matters of prime import-
ance in the maintenance of Canadaâs
competitive position.
The minister hoped that in the
very near future, as a result of a
meeting he is arranging for early
bi year with the provinces, a
Pp! p national
program for all phases of the indus-
try can be formulated. To be effec-
tive, this program must take into
account the need for resource de-
velopment, for modernization of
fishing methods and processing, and
for the expansion of domestic and
export markets.
Prince Edward Island has a big
stake in this movement, which
comes at a time when increased
human populations and improved
processing techniques are leading
to a greatly increased demand for
fish throughout the world.
Wallace's Last Stand
By ordering U.S. Defense Sec-
retary McNamara to take âall ap-
propriate stepsâ to enforce school
desegregation in Alabama, Presi-
dent Kennedy made it clear that
the federal court ruling would be en-
forced at all costs. Mr. McNamaraâs
first step was to take control
of the stateâs national guard away
from Governor George C. Wallace,
who had been using these troop
to prevent the opening of integrated
schools in four Alabama centres,
and whose evident purpose was to
force a showdown with Washington.
Did Governor Wallace think he
could win out on this issue? No one
supposes that for a moment. But
he is a politician who had commit-
ted himself to a rigid course of ob-
struction in the civil rights conflict.
By forcing the federal authorities to
interveneâas happened before
when two Negro students were ad-
mitted to the state university at
Tuscaloosaâhe can claim now to
have done everything he could to
block integration and to be bowing
only to superior force.
But there is a new element in
the situation. Perhaps it is due to
the success of the great mass dem-
onstration in Washington recently,
perhaps to other causes as well;
but there has been a growing
resentment in the governor's own
state at his futile tactics and the
strife and disorder they were creat-
ing. One Alabama newspaper,
whose editor has been a close con-
fidante of Governor Wallace, said it
must sorrowfully conclude that, in
ey anstance, âour friend has gones\

week in more than a score of

ers. In none of them was there any
serious trouble. Yesterday integra-
tion began in Alabama schools and
Mississippi now remains the only
state where no school integration
has begun below the college level.
Mississippi is not expected to be
âable to hold out much longer, al-
though it may wage a bitter-end
fight.
Further Protest
The Federal Governmentâs re-
cent announcement regarding areas
designated for special tax treat-
ment has raised criticism in other
Maritime areas besides Prince Ed-
ward Island. We have been ignored
altogether, as Premier Shaw and
Resources Minister Rossiter have
pointed out; but the governors of
the Atlantic Provinces Economic
Council have announced their dis-
approval in equally strong terms,
contending that the entire Atlantic
region should be considered with-
out piecemeal selection. APEC has
advanced this contention all along,
and it held a special executive meet-
ing in Halifax on Monday to reaf-
firm its stand.
The Moncton Transcript makes
the same point, in an_ editorial in
which it maintains that as compar-
ed with the rest of Canada, the
whole of the Atlantic region is a de-
pressed areaâan area of surplus
labor and insufficient employment,
an area lacking sufficient industry,
up-to-date facilities and many oth-
er things enjoyed in more fortunate
parts of the country.
When first the concept of âdes-
ignated areasâ for tax relief was
announced, it was hoped that it
would represent a massive attack
on Atlantic economic problems,
operating in conjunction with the
Atlantic Development Board and
the Municipal Loan Fund. In the
case of the latter policy, the Atlan-
tie area will get the short end
of the stick as the capital of the
fund will be divided on a per capita
basis. Similarly, the designation of
a few scattered Maritime areas for
preferential tax treatment leaves
much to be desired.
It is to be hoped, in view of
these protests, that the federal au-
thorities will reconsider the whole
situation.
Liberal Criticism
One thing evident at this weekâs
Ottawa conference on the national
contributory pensions scheme is that
there are many kinks in it that will
have to be ironed out. Quebec ob-
jects to it on both political and
economic grounds, and it is still not
clear how far Ontario is prepared
to go in integrating its own planâ
which will begin to operate on Jan.
1, 1965âwith the federal setup.
But assuming that all or most of
the provinces decide to co-operate,
it will still need far more study
than it has received up to now.

exhortation by. the Postmaster
ie USS. is plastered on every

in that coun-
that some of the nationâs ablest
actuaries consider the scheme un-
sound financiaily. Even if some kind
of agreement can be reached with
the provinces, Parliament should
insist on the fullest investigation
before committing the country to
such as undertaking. âIt would be
much better,â says the Free Press,
âto delay a decision for a few
months than to launch a half-baked
proposition for the sole purpose of
meeting a purely political deadline
next January.â
Nor can the scheme be studied
adequately in the House of Com-
mons were debate is limited and no
witnesses can be examined. Instead,
the legislation should be referred
to a committee of the House which
can hear the evidence of experts,
get all the facts and probably sug-
gest useful amendments.
âAfter its budgetary mistakes
and disappointments,â adds our
Winnipeg contemporary, âthe Gov-
ernment should have learned that
in great affairs more haste often
means less speed, as well as finan-
cial damage and loss of public con-
fidence. A program involving bil-
lions of dollars and the future wel-
fare of most aged Canadians cannot
be safely thrown together in a few
days of parliamentary discussion
among members who are not equip-
ped to understand the details.â

particular question are chang-

tion, This is interpreted as indi-
cating a reversal soon of the
previous position taken by Ger-
man ministers.
âThe poultry tariff was a Ger-
man move to protect, on behalf
of the German and French poul-
try indistries, a market for an
annual $50 million a year worth

Sees Bright Prospects
Of interest to all concerned in
the Atlantic fisheries industry were |
the remarks of the Hon. H.J. Robi- |
chaud, federal Minister of Fisher-
ies, at the opening yesterday in
Lunenburg of the 27th Nova Scotia
fisheries exhibition. Mr. Robichand
dealt, among other things, with the
growth of dragger and scallop fleets
in recent times, with the brighten-
ing prospects in the industry and
with federal plans for cooperating
with the provinces in developing
every phase of its resources.
He made reference to the big
processing plants now being plan-
med for Lunenburg, Canso and
Georgetown, and predicted that be-
fore the next Lunenburg exhibition,
Canada will have implemented the
establishment of the 12-mile ex-
clusive fishing zone off its coast-
lines as announced by Prime Mini:
ter Pearson last June. But there
were other matters of prime import-
ance in the maintenance of Canadaâs
competitive position.
The minister hoped that in the
very near future, as a result of a
meeting he is arranging for early
bi year with the provinces, a
Pp! p national
program for all phases of the indus-
try can be formulated. To be effec-
tive, this program must take into
account the need for resource de-
velopment, for modernization of
fishing methods and processing, and
for the expansion of domestic and
export markets.
Prince Edward Island has a big
stake in this movement, which
comes at a time when increased
human populations and improved
processing techniques are leading
to a greatly increased demand for
fish throughout the world.
Wallace's Last Stand
By ordering U.S. Defense Sec-
retary McNamara to take âall ap-
propriate stepsâ to enforce school
desegregation in Alabama, Presi-
dent Kennedy made it clear that
the federal court ruling would be en-
forced at all costs. Mr. McNamaraâs
first step was to take control
of the stateâs national guard away
from Governor George C. Wallace,
who had been using these troop
to prevent the opening of integrated
schools in four Alabama centres,
and whose evident purpose was to
force a showdown with Washington.
Did Governor Wallace think he
could win out on this issue? No one
supposes that for a moment. But
he is a politician who had commit-
ted himself to a rigid course of ob-
struction in the civil rights conflict.
By forcing the federal authorities to
interveneâas happened before
when two Negro students were ad-
mitted to the state university at
Tuscaloosaâhe can claim now to
have done everything he could to
block integration and to be bowing
only to superior force.
But there is a new element in
the situation. Perhaps it is due to
the success of the great mass dem-
onstration in Washington recently,
perhaps to other causes as well;
but there has been a growing
resentment in the governor's own
state at his futile tactics and the
strife and disorder they were creat-
ing. One Alabama newspaper,
whose editor has been a close con-
fidante of Governor Wallace, said it
must sorrowfully conclude that, in
ey anstance, âour friend has gones\

serious trouble. Yesterday integra-
tion began in Alabama schools and
Mississippi now remains the only
state where no school integration
has begun below the college level.
Mississippi is not expected to be
âable to hold out much longer, al-
though it may wage a bitter-end
fight.
Further Protest
The Federal Governmentâs re-
cent announcement regarding areas
designated for special tax treat-
ment has raised criticism in other
Maritime areas besides Prince Ed-
ward Island. We have been ignored
altogether, as Premier Shaw and
Resources Minister Rossiter have
pointed out; but the governors of
the Atlantic Provinces Economic
Council have announced their dis-
approval in equally strong terms,
contending that the entire Atlantic
region should be considered with-
out piecemeal selection. APEC has
advanced this contention all along,
and it held a special executive meet-
ing in Halifax on Monday to reaf-
firm its stand.
The Moncton Transcript makes
the same point, in an_ editorial in
which it maintains that as compar-
ed with the rest of Canada, the
whole of the Atlantic region is a de-
pressed areaâan area of surplus
labor and insufficient employment,
an area lacking sufficient industry,
up-to-date facilities and many oth-
er things enjoyed in more fortunate
parts of the country.
When first the concept of âdes-
ignated areasâ for tax relief was
announced, it was hoped that it
would represent a massive attack
on Atlantic economic problems,
operating in conjunction with the
Atlantic Development Board and
the Municipal Loan Fund. In the
case of the latter policy, the Atlan-
tie area will get the short end
of the stick as the capital of the
fund will be divided on a per capita
basis. Similarly, the designation of
a few scattered Maritime areas for
preferential tax treatment leaves
much to be desired.
It is to be hoped, in view of
these protests, that the federal au-
thorities will reconsider the whole
situation.
Liberal Criticism
One thing evident at this weekâs
Ottawa conference on the national
contributory pensions scheme is that
there are many kinks in it that will
have to be ironed out. Quebec ob-
jects to it on both political and
economic grounds, and it is still not
clear how far Ontario is prepared
to go in integrating its own planâ
which will begin to operate on Jan.
1, 1965âwith the federal setup.
But assuming that all or most of
the provinces decide to co-operate,
it will still need far more study
than it has received up to now.

exhortation by. the Postmaster

in that coun-
that some of the nationâs ablest
actuaries consider the scheme un-
sound financiaily. Even if some kind
of agreement can be reached with
the provinces, Parliament should
insist on the fullest investigation
before committing the country to
such as undertaking. âIt would be
much better,â says the Free Press,
âto delay a decision for a few
months than to launch a half-baked
proposition for the sole purpose of
meeting a purely political deadline
next January.â
Nor can the scheme be studied
adequately in the House of Com-
mons were debate is limited and no
witnesses can be examined. Instead,
the legislation should be referred
to a committee of the House which
can hear the evidence of experts,
get all the facts and probably sug-
gest useful amendments.
âAfter its budgetary mistakes
and disappointments,â adds our
Winnipeg contemporary, âthe Gov-
ernment should have learned that
in great affairs more haste often
means less speed, as well as finan-
cial damage and loss of public con-
fidence. A program involving bil-
lions of dollars and the future wel-
fare of most aged Canadians cannot
be safely thrown together in a few
days of parliamentary discussion
among members who are not equip-

particular question are chang-

cating a reversal soon of the
previous position taken by Ger-
man ministers.
âThe poultry tariff was a Ger-
man move to protect, on behalf
of the German and French poul-
try indistries, a market for an
annual $50 million a year worth
