Committee

Examining

Relations With ARDA

MucLEOD

Premier Walter R. Shaw said Friday the cabinet committee on resources development is ex- amining relations with the fed- eral agriculture rehabilitation and development policy to &- termine. "any weaknesses in our approach to the program imder which we can qualify for federai assistance on develop- ment projects."

On the basis of the original understanding with farmer agri- culture ministeir Alvin Ham- ilton. Mr. Shaw said the whole problem is b--Eng gone into very

. n- “ONE SMALL PART"

Premier Shaw said the assis- tance available through ARDA is "one small part of the whole provincial development p ro- gram. We have just as many important matters presented to other federal departments in connection with extension work. Some are through the forestry department. some through the department of labor and some through the Atlantic Develop- ment Board."

Commenting on assertions that the government has not been paying enough attention to agri-

culture in its development pro- gram. Premier Shaw said "those are ridiculous assump- tions. We have a fully equipped department of agriculture at- tending to the needs of our farm people. The resources develop- ment division will not be in competition with ‘agriculture but will work in close co-operation in promoting agricultural polic ies with the agriculture depart- ent.

“In turn. the staff of the de- partment of agriculture will be used to promote research and development policies. In t h i s connection. arrangements in r e being made for the agriculture people to examine the problems of marketing." ’

RESULT OF EFFORTS Premier Shaw pointed out

that the establishment of lar g e

processing pl ants in the pro-

vince. which have a dire ct ef-

fect on the agricultural econ-

omy. is a result of research ef- rts."

The premier said he expects to outline "very shortly" the progress made in the field of re- sources development "fields of activity” in w “we are engaged."

Canadian Rabbis’ Outcry ls Dismissed By Russians

OTTAWA ¢CPl—’l‘he outcry by Canadian rabbis over the al- leged stifling of Jewish religious and cultural life in Russia has

en dismissed by the Soviet embassy here as “artificial."

T e '

h Soviet reaction to the charges was revealed here at a special rabbinic con-

ference—first of its kind in Can- 1

ada~called to consider the wel- fare of the 3.000.000 Jews in the Soviet Union.

Rabbi S. M. Zambrowsky of Montreal, conference chairman, said an audience was sought with Soviet Ambassador Ivan Shpedko or. alternatively. the embassy was asked to send a representative to the one-day conference.

Both requests were refused. he said.

Alexei Popov. embassy coun- sellor. wrote in reply to the re- quest that the conference’s sub- ject. was “artificial and obvi-

Sandstone Cleaner Unavailable

From information given to government officials and the committee on re-decorating by Don Tibbetts, Halifax, of t National Research Council. it is apparent that there is no known method of cleaning sandstone satisfactorily, and consequent- ly the Province Building will have to retain its grimy face.

Mr. Tibbetts said that using existing methods of cleaning. there is a danger of removing the protective layer from the sandstone. leaving it open for erosion.

To continue the plan to have the exterior of the building cleaned so that it will present a similar appearance to the new Fathers of Confederation Mem- orial Building. the committee will continue its studies to de- firmine some method of clean-

ously tendentious" and that it constituted interference in the internal affairs of the U.S.S.R. MARTIN AGREES

Meanwhile, the conference heard from External Affairs Minister Paul Martin that the Canadian government s h a r e s the rabbis‘ concern. He said the government "will continue to make knows its feelings on this sub’ ct."

"I already have found appro- priate opportunities to let the Soviet authorities know of our deep and abiding concern for human rights for all peoples, in- cluding the Jewish people within the U.S.S.R.." he said.

Mr. Martin said a visit by Ca- nadian parliamentarians to the Soviet Union is a possibility in the future and. If it takes place. the delegation would include men such as Marvin Gelber "who share our feelings on this subject."

Mr. Gelber is the Liberal MP for York South. He also is presi- dent of the Canadian Jewish Congress, which organized the rabbinic meeting.

Martin said his depart- ment is continually examining ldevelopments inside the Soviet [Union He added: ‘g "I believe that

it is a fact ;that in the U.S.S.R. the obser ivance of Jewish religious rites has with increasing 0 stacles in recent years, from the closing of synagogues to se- vere restrictions on the training of rabbis to the cessation of the public baking of Matzoh for use at Passover. . . .

SEVERE RESTRICTIONS

"It is also a fact that Jewish secular life is subject to severe restrictions. The numbers of Yiddish plays performed. Yid- dish newspapers. magazines and books published. are very small in proportion to the size of the Jewish population and to the similar facilities afforded othar

Jews in the Soviet Union. It is probably stronger than that ex- erted on other non-slaivic nation- alities which are not suspected. Jews. of having in- ternational ties. But it is impor- tant to recognize that agenerol process of russification is tak- ing place and is evident in many non-Russian areas."
