Striking Contrast

Opposition politicians In Western Europe would find election cam~ palgns hard going these days. Think of it: no unemployment! lt'e ikI making bricks without straw ‘ is— eail governments where the only labor problem iI I critical shortage of workers caused by booming econ- omies. Some of these countries were In ruins at the end of World War II, but: you would never think it today.

West Germany, for exr"*‘le. with an estimated 570,000 job open- ings at the end of 1961, recently brought in the first of 700 Japanese miners to work in the Rhur coal fields. Private firms have been re- cruiting workers in Italy, Ire‘ 4i. Greece and other countries to work In textile factories, auto plants, and In construction.

Holland has set up an emr' v- ment office in Milan. The tight labor market in Austria was the main reason labor unions and man- agement representatives recently agreed to a proposal to fill nearly 50,000 job openings with foreign workers this year.

The influx of foreign labor is not without its own problems. of course. Fights broke out in one Hol- land town when Italian workers tried to date local girls. Some do- mestic workers complain that the foreigners work too hard. The heavy Dutch and German food is giving oome Italians and Spaniards gastric nightmares. But these are grr 'vg pains. and are to be expected as Western Europe merges into I tingle economic unity.

By 1969. according to the pros- cnt timetable of the European (‘r‘m- mon Market. the Workers of France. West Germany. Italy, B e i gi -' '71. Luxembourg and the Netherlmds will constitute one labor market Iimilar to that of the L'nited States, with common wage and work stand- Irds. Britain. too. will likely be I partner in this epoch-making trans- formation which will affect all of us. for gond or ill. acconling to how we react to the challenge it pre- sents. This is really I major issue In ottr own Canadian election cam- paign. though one hears compara- tively little about it. Certainly to talk of "national economic develop ment" while ignoring this handwrit- Ing m the wall is to be blind indeed.

Saskatchewan Deadlock

There are two sides to every con- troversy. even to the apparently in- IxcunIble decision of over 600 of Suhbchewnn'e 904 registered doc- tor! I70 go on strike and provide no medical services to the people of Mr province after July 1. except hnergency trutment.

We doubt whether the doctors lid thanseives credit or the cause they represent by this performance in imposition he the provhlee'l new medial can Immune scheme. The you mctirm. m. he been Ilfavonble. But I II worth noting that their Iction follownd the rule- mion from the Sub-m cob- ‘tnet and the OCF-ND PIrty of Public Works Mirdster WIltIr Em. who. Is Minister of Public H-ltb. had piloted the medical care mas-

M'I understanding of the air ' ‘I the government had received fun the people for putting the s ' a into effect. Be that as it to it would seem that the regulations In arbitrary over all aspects of the medical profession and could, if in- voked, not only set out the schedule of fees. but also the methods of

‘ tmtment and the locations in the

province where a doctor may (T may not reside.

The medical profession obi'v‘ts mainly to the broad powers pla id in the hands of a state medical com- mission rather than to the principle of a government-controlled medical scheme. Its spokesmen claim that nowhere in the world, including Britain. has I government “en such sweeping authority. Technical- ly, the government could decide mt only the form of treatment given to I patient but such details as the size of the needle to be used.

The weapon of suspension will hang round every doctor’s neck like the Ancient Mariner's albatross. and it is claimed that this provision could be invoked even on complaint of I disgruntled patient who could take court action with I lawyer prm vided by the government.

Basically, the doctors’ comp] int is that the government regulations Ire being put into effect without consulting them as promised when Mr. Douglas was premier of the province. This is denied by the gov- ernment, but it appears to be im- plicit in the reasons given by .“r. Erb for his resignation from the cabinet.

It is an unfortunate mess, at best. The doctors would be well -rd- vised to carry on. for a while at least, in the expectation of having their grievances ironed out in re- turn for their full co-operation. But that they do have legitimate griev- ances would appear, at this distance, to be equally true.

Liberal Wheat Pledge

We wonder what the Winnipeg Free Press. which was so concerned about Prime Minister Diofenbaker's “brazen political bribe" of a cause- way for Prince Edward Island. will say about Liberal Leader Pearson's pledge to I Saskatchewan audience of I minimum price of $2 a bushel for the basic grade of wheat during the next three years. Even the Qt- tawa Citizen—which for the most part is almost as staunch in its sup- port of Mr. Pearson as our Wilmi- peg contemporary—finds this pro- posal hard to reconcile with sound statesmanship.

At the moment. it says. $2 w' '"t is realistic enough. Supplies are on the short side. and there are no signs of I drop in world price. Yet no we can guess the course of the market during the full three years of the agreement. It could drop to the floor. in which case the treasury would be heavily committed. And once the three-year term is over. it is pretty safe to assume that west- ern farmers won't be. happy if the policy is discontinued.

"What happens under these clr- cumstcnces to wheat acreage?" Isks The Citizen. “There will surely be I tendency to grow more wheat re- gardless of whether it is needed or not. High price supports have been

i one of the defects of U.S. fIrm

policy for many years. for once set it is hard to bring them down. Ai- together. Mr. Pearson's proposals can hardly be hailed with enthus-

‘iIIm by CanadiIn taxpayers It

how. no matter their Ippeal to one group of producers."

THE GREAT LEAP BACKWARD

OTTAWA REPORT by

Recalling The Campaign Of 1953

Nine years Igo this summer, Canada was Ilsa engaged in I nationwide political battle. when the Conservative challenger George Drew failed to upset the reigning Liberal champion, Louis St. Laurent.

With polling dIte let for 10 August. there was very little interest In that campaign. This column referred then to "the positively demure demagoguery- lay-radio which is passing for I general election campaign." When the ballots cIme to be counted. it was found that I re- cord 33 per cent of the qualified electors had not bothered to vote. In fact. as many Canadians stayed Iuay from the polls as voted for the wording Liberal party.

This column predicted. In the t month before polling. that “the Liberals will win In over-all malority. but all three opposi~ tlon parties will win sells from them." This was proved cur-. reel. The Liberals seemed wor~ rled; Dave Croll. LiberIl M.P., now Senator Crotl. sumtcsrcd that no Liberal who had won by less than 2.000 votes in 1949 was safe in 1953. And I wrote, “I do not credit the danger sig- IIII surprisingly flown by Mr. St. Laurent in the West. when he warned of the posslhtllty of the Conservatives. Socrnds and Quebec Independents forming I ‘rumshackle mlition‘."

HIGH PRICE ARMY

In thIt election campaign. George Drew promluxi to cut IIer by MQWmO I year if he were to become Prime Mln~ lsler. Describing hls speech In- nouncing this. this column wrote: "A swollen white rabbit wIs produced out of his little magiciIn'I hat by George Drew." Ros- Thurber. "I"! the CCF MP for Moose Jaw. how- ever produced I formula by which such tax am could be Ichieved.

"The offlclIl Brittlh figures show that the cost to the Bri- ‘ ttsh taxpayer for eIch mm In his armed forces In $5.210 per year; the U.S. ﬁgure-II 812.333 - per you; but not: CInIdlIn In uniform costs the CInIdtIn taxpayer 317,750 I you." said

The Evion Accords

PARIS IAPl More than, six weeks IIIDI‘ the Algerian peace accords went into effect as much blood as over is flow- ing in Algeria's major cities.

Some Frenchmen are wonder- lng If the vast territory's fu- ture—as neatly charted It the Elen peace conference —— now will be thrown into doubt.
