Pupil Control

. The Board of Education in New Y9i'k,Cityi-as "progressive", evi- dently. as they come-has issued a p new toachers' guide. Perhaps it

ought to be - known as a "pupils" guide; for the substance of its con- tents: is" what pupils should do to make school life more interesting" which, in the opinion of the guides authors. is the same thing as mak- ingif more useful. Briefly. the pupils are to be ch- couragcd to plan the.ir own work. This would apply from kindergarten to the upper grades. In the former, It isylto beydone chiefly by pictures. These;-shoyving children doing :1 number of things, all more or less related to school life, are put on the edge of the blackboard. A vote is then taken, in the accredited demo- cratic way, and the majority dc- cides-the day's program. Some time. of course, is allowed for discussion. during which time the proponents of this or, that project are encouraged l.o explain their preferences. In the upper grades planning takes a more detail , course, as befits more mat iiytlpils. It might include any- im-imaking rules for class-

Not at all! The gujdgsuggests that they can play an "important role" by making sure V th;?& feW..Dupils.-the more 1oqua- ciodig”-ones,-.-th9;t ls-do not. control the'b5foceed'ings. Now and then they might put in a word for themselves; but, quite evidently, this is regarded as a privilege not to be abused. Who knows? Perhaps the time is not far off when teachers won't be needed at ,all. There will then be one less problem in the field of education.

Dairying Ancl Publicity

There are many factors involved in the problems confronting the dairy industry, as was evident from the discussions this week at the na- tional annual meeting in Saint John. Dairymen were told by one speaker that their cattle could be consider- ably improved, and by others that

room teache

should be employed. This criticism hardly applies to our progressive farmers in this Province, who have concentrated on quality production for some years. But there is all- other factor which has gen???” ill!- plication and which is accentuated by the prediction of Mr. Goodwillie, chief of dairy products inspection and grading in the Fccdral Agricul- ture Department that fluid milk and butter prorluction is expected to reach,record levels this year. Mr. Goodwfllio anticipates a good market for these products: as well as for cheddar cheese; but there is one way in which domestic consumption can be greatly increased, and which ap- parently has not been fully exploit- so. This matter was referred to ill '- address prepared by Mr. Walsh.

more efficient. methods of operation

Mr. Walsh added; "and we fall to go beyond that. If farmers were com- pletely sold on the health-giving qualities of milk and dairy products, milk consumption would be higher and there would be no butter ur- plus or worry about margarine." We doubt whether the problem is as simple as all that, but there is no question that publicity plays an important part and that an aggres- sive salcs policy-not confined to sporadic campaigns but continued throughout the year, and year after year--would do a great deal to lift the industry out of the doldrums. Liquor sales are n o w handled through government sources in all the Provinces, but that does not pre- vent the liquor interests from spend- ing millions of tdollais on publicity every year in Canada, wherever such advertising is permitted. In- directly, through their public rela- tions channels, they are spending many millions more. They know that every dollar thus expended brings ample returns. Other huge in- dust:-ics. such as the automobile in- (lust1'y. have enormous national ad- vol-tislng budgets. For our dairymen it is not a question of whether they can afford to follow Mr. Walsh's ad- vico in the matter of providing an adequate fund for promoting their products; it is a question of how otherwise they can hope to survive. with the competition they are now facing.

An example of lost opportunity on a magnificent scale was afforded by the former French Premier, M. Men(lcs-France, when he insisted, on his visits to Washington and Ol- tawa, on drinking only milk at the cocktail parties given in his honour. Pictures of these functions, showing the Premier smacking apreciative lips over his bubbling milk glass, full pint size. were carried as news in papers all across the continent. They should have sparked the biggest campaign in the milk industry's his- tory; but there was no advertising follow-up, and the incident is now almost forgotten. Other industries are constantly on the alert for news breaks of this kind, and some have reaped fortunes from much less promising material.

Tracking The Whale

Wi-th the end of the commercial whaling season, a large-scale scien- tific hunt sponsored by the Univer- sity of New Zealafid's research

South Pacific. Its aim is to trace the 3,000-mile course of the giant humpback whales as they head south to the Antarctic from their summer breedingygrounds near Sn- moa, the Cook Islands, the New Hebrides and New Caledonia. Whaling teams from the islands to the north of New Zealund. as well as the French Institute of Oceania in New Caledonia and the Government of Tonga, are cooper- ating in the hunt. On board fast launches and armed with special shotguns, the teams will fire 10-inch steel darts into the fleshy back of the younger whales. Each dart is in- dividually numbered, and carries on the shaft the words: "Reward for

return to Discovery. Admiralty. London." "Very little is known about the

migratory habits of the humpback whale and, indeed, about any type of whale in the Pacific," said MI" W. H. I. Dawbln, a zoologist from Victoria University who is one 0: the organizers of the hunt. The pro sent schcmc. however. should mak- it possible to piece together man: hitherto unknown facts which wii be of great, value both to zoologist.- and to the whaling industry.

The illness of President Eisen- hower was the leading news story of 1955 and continues to be a major topic of interest in the United States. Scarcely a day passes with- out some Republican offlceholder assuring his public that the presi- dent is in splendid condition and certain to be the party's candidate in November.

GILBERT MURRAY FUND

Sir.--This month Dr. Gilbert Murray. 0.M., one of the world's foremost ' ' ' scholars. a man of letters, and one of the earliest promoters of the organiz- ation of peace. will celebrate his ,9C'h anniversary. Twlce at the speclal -invitation of General Smuls. Dr. Murray represented South Africa at the League of Natlrs. Later as Chairman and co-President of the League of Nat- ions Union and subsequently as co-President of the United Nations Association In the United King- dom. he has for more than a gen- eration given signal service in the cause of international co-operation.

We believe that many of Dr. Murray's friends in Canada will desire to give him a birthday present and we therefore warmly commend the British plan of the Gilbert Murray 90th Birthday Fund put forward by Sir Winston Churchill. Lord Cecil. Lord Bert- rand Russcll. Lord Samuel. Dame Kathleen Courtney, Dame Sybil Thorndike. Sir Norman Angel. Mr. John Mascfleld and other disting- uished "orld personalities.

The money raised by the Fund is to be devoted to the two objects n"".-h Dr. Murray's own life work has done so much to advance- Grcck studies and International co- operation. The Trustees of the Fiind will be asked to cnsure that paymcnls are made in equal pro- portions towards the preparation of Ilcnlc culture and. with tho help of travelling IOIIOWNIIIDS or other means. promote those ed- ucational. social. political and athl- cal purposes of the United Nations with which Dr. Murray has been so deeply concerned.

Canadians wishing to contrlbulr their gift. large or small, to a fund In Dr. Murray's honour that s ''.I remain a lasting mt-moi'ial'to a great world clilren. should send their ch new and postal orders marlc payable to the Gilbert Murray Fund to Professor C. H. Steam. Mcmaster University. Hamilton. Ontario. Canadian con- tributions will be forwarded to the headquarters of the Fund at 25 Charles Street. London. W.I. FIG land. I

for wish-fulfilment. Seeking to but- tress their fervent hope that he will run they continually declare that he is going to do so. Realizing their partyis precarious position without Eisenhower. they cannot. face the prospect of his wiilidrawal from the coniest even in the in- terests of his own hearth.

The in I popular-it) of the man nor: occupying the presidency IS one of the decisive IBCIIIFI in American politics today. Although the publicity concerning his ill- ness increased public affection for him. there had never been any lessening of that massive approb- ation which swelled across the land when he tendered for the nations highest office.

BEYOND CRITICISM

So great is the president's popul- at appeal that even his political opponents hesitate to criticize, let alone attack. him. Mr. Dulles may ' be denounced for his ineptitude in foreign affairs or Mr. Benson for lils fumbling farm program, and other officials for their policies. but scarcely anyone will even hint at criticism of the president. It would up that Eisenhower has. in large measure. assumed the role of a head of state rather than the head of a government. By seeming to remain aloof from controversial Issues and detached from content- ions policies he retains his popul- arity with all parts of the elector- ate. While large sections of public opinion can be roused against members of his administration. there would seem to be a com- fortable underlying feeling that "Ike" can do no wrong. Thus. like a constitutional monarch with a loyal host of faithful subjects. he rides secure above the storms which usually asset! the man de- pendent on the votci-'2; will.

if is rarely that this happy state of things is questioned, but. not. long ago, the New Republic ex- pressed some concern about Eisen- hower's apparent lack of familiar- ity with the highly-significant Dixon Yates affair. "Few presi- dents have delegated so much power or withdrawn so far from those boring details which kept his predecessor. Mr. Truman. busy to hours a day. Then when the iest came on a clear cut Issue he did not know what his subordinates had been doinii." But the blunders of Dixon Yates will not be charged to Eisenhower. for he in some way will appear not to be responsible for them.

CONTRASTING VIEW

A contrasting view of the Pro- -ildentlal roll Is found in the Truman Memoirs. Here was I man who started off by telling his ad- vlsers that he would be president In his own right and assume full responsibilities for decisions made. with characteristic vigor In step-

Speaking of the presidential authority he said "If he exercises it wisely that is good for the country. if he does not ex- ercise ll. wisely that is too bad. but It is better than not exercising It at all."

Yet Truman discovered that such activity can mean unpopularity. and even Franklin Roosevelt who was equipped with all the per" nal charm of Eisenhower learned that to be assertive is to alienate some of the public. While there were many who loved him there were thousands who heartily hated Roosevelt. To suggest that anyone could conceivably hate Eisenhower would be preposterous. for even an elective king should be beloved by
