Powwow At Ottawa
Since it will be behind closed doors, there is no doubt that the talk at the forthcoming Conserva- tive gatherings at Ottawa will be “free and frank’', as predicted. About 60 members of the national campaign committee will meet Sun- day. On Monday the party's na- tional executive officers and the 116 Conservative MPs elected in June will hold separate meetings.
The national campaign commit- tee is essentially the corps of senior party organizers handpicked by Mr. Diefenbaker to head the national organization during the election campaign. As anticipated in a Cana- dian Press report, their discussions will “analyze the general election by regions, occupational groups, age groups and on a riding-by-rid- ing basis. Party platform, policy and political organization will be re- viewed, and there will be a thorough discussion of the recent campaign.”
A full-scale post mortem, in short, and all “in camera". The boys will be able to take their hair down without fear of news hounds and of having to complain, next day. that they were “misquoted in the press." There won't even be a cam- era man present, or an alien eye at the keyhole.
SHREWD GUESSES—Not even James McCook, veteran Ottawa Journal reporter w ho s e Conserva- tive rating is beyond question, will be allowed within earshot. But Mr. McCook has some ideas about what will go on, and he's spilled them in advance in an article in his news- paper which we read yesterday with more than usual interest.
The boys, says Mr. McCook, “will want, from the Prime Minis- ter and ministers concerned. ans- wers to questions such as why it was necessary so suddenly to devalue the dollar during the campaign." They will want to be “reassured the Government will not sell the Com- monweath short” at the Common- wealth prime ministers’ conference in London next month. “And what about the continuation of the ‘aus- terity’ program, the desirability of a balanced budget, the future of the national development program with the heavy out'ays involved, the in- centives to greater productivity by competitive-price goods and the cost of the social security program?"
We can think of a lot of other points that cou‘d be raised of lively import. But whatever direction the queries may take, the delegates-— Mr. McCook assures us—“will have an over-riding concern with the spirit of their party." of course. And, let us hope, with the welfare of the country at large.
STILL‘ THE LEADER-—0ne thing seems certain; there will be no challenge to Mr. Diefenbaker's leadership. He may not have brought home the bacon in the decisive man- ner he did in 1968, but he is still “Die! the Chief” to all and sundry. There in general recognition, too. of the back-breaking work he put

within an months or no. {Wm no 1,500 delegates in attendance to vote on p. licy and organization. This is counteci by the party a fair representation of the Canadian grass-roots, the delegates coming mainly from active local. organiza- tions. But those arriving this week- end will not need to be reminded that there may be a general elect- ion long before the annual meeting. They must hurry to be Piepared.
The new session of Parliament starts on Sept. 27, and as Mr. Mc- Cook so aptly puts it, “a torpedo to sink it can be launched from the Opposition benches any day.” No party, this summer, dares, lie on its hammock reflecting on departed joys. So, from next week's meet- ings may come the first glimpse of the Conservative platform for the next election. It will ‘have some fresh planks, Mr. McCook is con- fident. “If there were not. it would be tarred with complacency.” And that, of course, is the last thing the boys will want to have their plat- form tarred with.
A U.N. Issue
Failing agreement by the Soviet Union to join the Western Allies in a four-power discussion of the tense Berlin situation, what should the Allies do? Neither side can afford to go to war on this issue. So far it has been kept out of United Nations discussion, but the time is now ripe for a full-scale diplomatic offensive on this front. If Premier Khrush- chev attends the forthcoming session in New York he should be put on the defensive at the outset and made to explain why Soviet policy
violates a solemn post-war agree- -
ment and denies basic human liber- ties to the South German people.
This is an issue on which the Communists would stand alone in the court of world nations. That might not prevent them from clos- ing the last remaining checkpoints on the Berlin wall, from shooting down more refugees from the Com- munist side and indulging in other acts of inhumanity and illegality, but it would brand their system for what it is in the eyes of the uncom- mitted nations. and force a show- down on moral groundsat least.
That is where the issue should now go--to the world forum of the United Nations, whose General As- sembly is about to meet.
The Traffic Mess
If our civic traffic problem is to be solved at all, it will have to be by such forthright measures as have been recommended to the City Council by Mr. Mannell, the Ontario traffic consultant who was brought here to make a survey. We were struck by several statements in the report Mr. Mannell submitted at Thursday night's Council meeting, notably the emphasis placed on vest- ing authority with some responsible body and letting them go to work and be “completely free from inter- ference.”
No overall plan can hope to meet with unanimous approval. If the Council waits for this kind of indor- sation it will wait——in Pre m i e r Khrushchev’s words on a quite dif- ferent matter-—“till shrimps learn to whistle.”
Obviously there is need for rad- ical changes——in provision for more one-way streets, in elimination of turns at certain intersections, in centre block parking, in the park- ing meter setup and whatnot—and
' when we hire traffic experts to ad-
vise us on such matters we should be prepared to follow their advice. ' It is because we didn’t have ex- pert overall planning that this mess developed. It is getting worse all the time, and the longer we wait the more costly it will be to remedy the situation and provide adequate- ly for the future. -

ANOTHER HELPING OF KHRUSH-KEBAB
A CASE FOR THE YARD
British Milk Morgkfeting Board Mystery
Scotland Yard has just been given one i ordinary cases since Dr. Fu Manchu was at large. and there must be a "considerable stir along the Embankment these mornings. The B r i t I s h Milk Marketing Board, at its wits’ end about a new and foolproof means to identify dairy cows. wants the Yard to help work out a noseprint system that would distinguish one cow from another, and no two ways about
Mostof us would be content to call a cow Daisy or Flossie and let it go at th A one time an ordinary farmer knew his cows by name, conforma- tion and the look on their faces at milking time.
This is not enough in these days of larger farms and larger British herds, of Government records and subsidies and in- spections. A Government man may be repelled by such a name as Nellie and this does not seem adequate for Agricul- tural Department records.
HAD EARS CLIPPED
In recent times British beef cattle. when Government sub- sldy was involved. have had their ears clipped. Ear tattoos have been tried but seem to be unsatisfactory. They become worn or chewed or otherwise made illegible. or they can be tampered with.
So the Milk Board suggests in- dividual noseprints. each one different. like the fingerprints of h u m some. but the bovine Bertillons say cows‘ noses are entirely in- dividualistic
London officials say 11 treated I It pad can be pressed on a cow's .
mushroom-shaped sweat glands. between the nostrils, and a per- manent record thus made. One problem is that the cow is apt to sweat and smear the print. Another difficulty is that classi- fication of such prints seems to be a prodigious job.
LONG EXPERIENCE
These are the things about which the Milk Board seeks help from Scotland Yard. es- pecially since the police have had such long experience with identification methods in deal- ing with footpads. jewel thieves, foreign agents, dope smugglers and poisoners. ‘
Since 1887 police on this con- ilncnt have been using the famous system invented by ‘Al- phonsf‘ Bertillon, the French anthropologist. who regularized the whole means of, identifying criminals. includinv the use of individual fingerprints.
lf Scotland Yard can adapt the Bertillon system to Britain’: bovine population.

Christianity and its principles ' are nearing a crucial test in the African wilderness.
One of the latest signs was Ghana's expulsion last week of the Anglican Bishop of Accra, Dr. Richard Roseveare. Tlfe Archbishop of West Africa, Most Rev. Cecil Patterson, was also ordered out of the country.
ishop Roseveare had criti- .cized Ghana's young pioneer movement as Godless and un- l christian in its adulation of 3 President Nkrumah.

The clash between religion and nationalism is as much a battle between the church and white .supremacy as ' is a falling-out with the new African states. Christian leaders believe their doctrine of moderation provides one of the safest paths towards the establishment of true and stable multl-racial societies.
But there is a race against time. Dr. Roseveare says com- munism and materialism are tightening their grip on the new Africa and it is doubtful whether many African Christians have the intellectual stamina to, fight these influences as yet.

A blood clot in the main vein of the leg is followed by swell- ing that some laymen call milk I leg. especially when the throm- bosis occurs after childbirth In the.strict sense, milk le g in- volves the lymph passageways. Swelling stems from an infec- tion and obstruction of the flow of lymph.
