One Extreme Suggests Aaothe:

The creatron of a. 375-mile long land-bridge, linking New Brunswick to Ontario, is being unofficially. discussed among English- speaking circles in Ot- tawa. This, it is urged, is the one “essential prerequisite for a peaceful separation of Quebec

from the other nine provinces of Canada

There can now be no doubt that a significant and growing number of determined French

Canadians would be far hap- pier if they could fulfil their ambition for complete independ- ence. Some of the younger

indeasiis And The Bomb

@

By Harold. Morrison

Canadian Press Staff Writer

Indonesia's insistence plans to test and detonate a nu- clear bomb has alarmed the Far East. With the Malaysian federation in trouble. and with turmoil some extent in Kashmir, the sudden appearance of a new nuclear power could lead to further unrest in that, turbulent region.

But, among Western -~-diplo= mats who have kept intensive watch over Jakarta, there is

continuing skepticism about In-

“donesia’s ability to ‘build a com-

plete atom bomb, even though President Sukarno has assured the world that plans for his country’s first atomic test are well in hand

Some experts suggest there are two possible ways in which a bomb may be exploded in Indonesia. One is the use of a Chinese device Indonesian technicians But even though’ China and Indone sia are close allies, there Is doubt, at least in British circles, that Peking would disclose its atomic secrets to another coun- try

MAY MASQUERADE

Another possibility is that In donesia would explode a con- ventional device and masquet- ade it as a nuclear bomb by including radioactive wastes in the explosive materials. Some Western officials are convinced this is what Indonesia actually will do. It will not result in the mushroom Shaped explosion that could destroy an industrial area in one ‘blast, though . It could spread ground. contamina- tion over a wide area

But even such a weapon, with its limited power, could cause panic among the: defenceless and primitive. peasants of the Far’ East. Pressures undoubt edly would be increased 6n some governments who have renounced nuclear defence that they —must—-find —some—away— of manufacturing the bomb simply

as a protection, against some heated, impulsive “move in In- donesia that could lead to siif- fering and death ames the Asiatic masses
