Trouble For NATO

ly they may be with Britain and the United States-the only two iiestcrn powers which at the present time have any amount of atomic power at their disposal-it is not pleasant for them to face the fact that the presence of nuclear bases on their territories would mean, as the Soviet Union has told them. that they would be subjected to nuclear at- tack: something which. conceivably though not certainly, they might otherwise be able to avoid. This, of - , course, is what is behind the current A agitation in West Germany against Chancellor Adcnaucr's declared in- tention to supply his country with the latest weapons of war. Yet, with- out the fullest co-opcrationof these nations, NATO would be gravely handicapped in its plans and pur- poses.

So far. the Soviet threats have not seemed to have much adverse effect on public opinion in West Eu- rope and Scandinavia: but it can be taken for granted that they are be- ing pondered more deeply than may appear on the surface: and they are, without I doubt, making things ever more difficult for NATO: main strategists.

Sober Dog

An unusual story about I dog comes from Sydney, Australia. Some will say that it tells of an injustice to a well behaved animal, others that what happened to the dog was for his own good. It's all in the point of view.

Rusty-that is the dog's name-- for several years was accustomed to drinking one tin of beer nightly. This was set out for him regularly by the kind proprietor of I fashionable pub. Usually, the dog sipped his refresh- ment and went quietly home. He never begged for a second, nor did he go to any other pub; at home he contented himself with milk. Occas- ionally, however. he went inside and stretched himself out on the floor, bothering no one and giving no trouble to the attendants. But on one of these occasions, I two-legged patron, who should have known bet- ter. stumbled over Rusty and broke his arm. This was the dog's undoing.

The patron sued the pub for 512,- 000 damages. When the matter came up in court, the case was argued back

Ind forth as is the custom. One

lawyer contended that the proprie-

tor couldn't properly be sued for

what was purely an accident. an-

other that it is the inalienable right

of I dog to accept hospitality wher-

ever it is offered and that the com-

.plainInt was I clumsy fellow who deserved to have his arm broken, Itlll another that no self-respecting fang would enter I pub anyway, so t on that account his owner id be made to pay the bill.

Growing Fast

The strength of the ('aiiadi;in economy, viewed quantitatively, is of course a lot less than that of the United States. Last year. for in- stance, the American national pro- duction was worth approviniatc')' S5413 billion while Canada's was worth around 530 billion. liui, ac- cording to the Bureau of Statistic-. the C-aiiadian economy is growiirl. faster than its American counter-

to liccome the industrially .-ii"-iii: country that the United States is at the present time. But the almic hu- urcs show that the Canadian cron- omy is growing at a very rzipid and healthy rate. Given a broad and Silt- isfactory immigration policy --it will have to be much broader than the existing one-and more active ('an- adian investment in expanding iii- dustry, there would seem to be no good reason why in the next quarter of a century or so, this country could not be among the leading industrial nations of the world. Even now, the known natural resources are bigger than those of the l'nited States. on a per capita basis, and there are still vast areas awaiting technical appraisal and development.

EDITORIAL NOTES

In the small town of Coal Burn, England. a fire which burned for 31 years has finally gone out. The namc, however. comes from a little stream. or ”burn" which runs through the town. It has been an appropriate name in another sense since 1926, the year the fire started.

O O C

The ”lilayflow'er the Second" lias radioed "all is well" from somewhere in the Atlantic enroutc to Plymouth, Mass. This. in itself. shows that sim- ulation of the journey of the first Mayflower is far from perfect. In the 17th century, when a ship en- tered the Atlantic she was "on her own" with no way to tell her friends

how she was doing.

A report from Washington says that James P. Richards, President Eisenhower's roving representative in the Middle East, will be in Israel some time this week ”to explain the Eisenhower Doctrine." He'd better make is sound good. The Israelis have had to put up with a lot of double talk from Washington in re- ceni months. and they are probably getting a little sick of it.

Before things come to this pass, I hereby raise the banner of re- volt. and call upon all the fat men and jolly women to rally I- round me. I do not care whether al the rats of Chicago die of stuf- fing themselves w ticoloer amrdh- garine Ind Wiener Schnilzels. It serves them right; they have no business indulging in thesee delic- acies in th first place. Mother NI- ture never meant rats to demand bacon and sausage for their elev- enses. In fact, I shall wagr that if the tables were turned on the doctors; if they were put on I dit that I psychologically well-balan- cad and socially-adjust rat would consider normal the doctors too would die off pretty last. And good riddance.

Further. I doubt whether I diet such as that advocated by the doc- tors would really make me live longer, although the period claps- stalks of clery and I lunch of I peanut on dry toast may indeed seem In eternity.

I also challenge the omniscience of the doctors, it is only I relative- ly short time ago that dcotors ur- gently warned their patients to beware the ill humor: of night air. and recommended that bed- room windows be tightly shut.
