Involuntary Retirement

Cornell University has embarked U130” a seven-year nation-wide survey in thP United States to determine whether there is any truth in the belief that. involuntary, retirement based on age speeds up symp- toms of disease and even death.

"Why all this concern about older peo- ple?” remarks Irving Ladimer in ”Occu-E pational Health", published by the U. S.: Department of Health. Education and Wei- fare. "Probably because we see m01'P Of them around than ever before. Although .the, population of the United States has doubled in the last half century, the num- ber of middle aged-45 to 64 has tripled- The number of persons over 65 has quad- rupled. One in every 12 DCFSONS t0fia.V 1S 65 or older."

There are many pros and cons on the question of compulsory retirement at A set ago. Mr. Ladimer goes on. In its favor are ease of operation, fairness, certainty, and financial and psychological planning for all parties. Against. it are the argu- ments of known variation in ageing and ability, continued participation in produc- tion. possible money savings by reduced pensions, and the satisfaction and well-being of the man who can and wants to work.

There is, too, the fact that as we retire people earlier and keep others at school longer, we are throwing more of the carn- ing burden upon fewer people-those be- tween the ages of 18 and 65. Years ago the proportion of earners in our popula- tion was away higher than it is today.

Trade Deficit Growing

An exchange notes that when that. mar- velous device that used to be known as the "Atlantic Triangle" was working, Can- ada swung happily between the world's two great trading nations, using both for her own purposes and benefiting greatly. The other two nations benefited, too. So there was advantage to all. Canada bought heavily in the United States, paying her debts to her American neighbors with bills on London.

World War Two and Britain”: period of austerity spoiled all that. The Atlantic Triangle is broken and there is little hope that it will ever be repaired. Canada has lost a good part of her market in the United Kingdom and must find some other means of paying her American imports. She still sells more goods to Great Britain than she buys from-that country. So there is It surplus. But the surplus in April last, was down to 57,600,000 in contrast to 544,500,- 000 the previous April. Thus there is lit- tle to come and go on.

Shut out of the United Kingdoni mar-

ket, more or less, by Great Britain's lack

the United States, thus meeting our bills direct. But, unfortunately, the increase in our exports to the American market is not keeping pace with our imports from that market. So, our trade deficit is grow: ling.

In April, for instance, we sold to the United States goods worth 3,t192,300,000, ,in contrast to tll184,000.000 in the previous iApril. But, in April, our imports from the United States touched S300,000,000, an all-time high figure and 354,400,000 more lthan the imports for April, 1052.

i If this were an isolated month it would mot be alarming. But there seems to be a trend. Our trade appears to be in a tail- spin and our deficits are growing apace.

,.(,ga,.d(.d as :tiOur deficit in American trade for April

was over .'iS100,000,000 and our deficit on the world account over 5,388,000,000. Even

People in the royal burgh of Selkirk, Scotland, will see a colourful spectacle in .luly when The Royal Archers, the Queens Bodyguard for Scotland, wearing dark green uniform, and with eagle pinions in their caps, march down the green to start the shoot for the Selkirk Silver Arrow.

The shoot takes place on the site of a 12th century hunting lodge in the heart of

tEttrick forest, and competition is certain to

be keen. Tradition has it that after the tro- phy has been won, the Provost of Selkirk should present the commanding officer of the Royal Archers with as many bottles of wine as can fill a garden riddle (sieve) which is about 20.

Although the Silver Arrow, which was first awarded in very far-off days, is now normally competed for every six years, there was a lapse in the competitions from 1674 until early in the 19th century, when the trophy was found again by Sir Wal- ter Scott, Laird of Abbotsford and Sheriff of Selkirk, who was himself an archer. Four other Scottish towns, Edinburgh, Peebles, Musselburgh and Monti-ose, each presented a silver arrow for the competition, and these are preserved in Archers Hall, Edin- burgh.

EDITORIAL NOTES

Thc mystery of the missing lobsters may well be answered by the reaction of some of our North Shore fishermen. After the destructive storm at the end of May some had had enough of shallow waters.

Yesterday they marched again-men of the old 105th Battallion. Somewhat greyer, their ranks thinned by the years they nevertheless showed the spirit that carried them through the years of the First World War. It was a fine turnout, and the re- union celebration which followed was one, long to be remembered.

Sir Edward Burne Burne-Jones. BL, English painter. died this date 1898. Of Welsh extraction, he had an idealism of character which showed in his art. He was a classical scholar, particularly inter-. ested in classical mythology. At first in-3 tended for the Church, he turned instead toi art, studying under Rossetti. He made use of many media, particularly water colour and stained glass. He has had a great in-, fluence on decorative design. l

It is interesting to note that. Mr. Har- ,old Lane Campbell. Deputy Superinten- ,dent of Education for British Columbia, referred to in these columns yesterday in connection with a lecture on education, is a Prince Edward Islander and a nephew of the late Lieut. Col. R. H. Campbell, who organized and recruited the 105th High- land Battallion in this Province during the First World War. Mr. Campbell's father was the late Mr. Ernest Campbell.- The latter, like Lt. Col. Campbell and another uncle, Mr. John M. Campbell, took a lead- ing part. in ed'ucational activities in the West after leaving Prince Edward island. 0 O C

What Chief Justice T. A. Campbell has referred to as "the cellophane curtain" has taken on considerable importance in Sum- merslde town affairs.
