While on the one hand t praises the r'.i.senliower lloctriney an the other it asserts tlfirm op- position to the use of force from any source as a means of settling international disputes." How is it DOSSll')lP to reconcile these two views? The Eisenhower Doctrine, if it means anything at all other than ll reatfirmation of acaticinic loyalty to the UN. Ciiartcr. surely implies that in certain circumstances and under certain provocations the ljnltftll States would be prepared to

it is interesting to note that in reply to Mr. Diefenbakerls question, the Prime Minister did not deny that he had sent such a protest. He mere- ly observed that he had not sent one as "Prime Minister of Canada." That. surely. is a form of hair-

msplilllitg which could be dispensed

with in the interest of the right of the people to know what is going on in matters which affect the Canadian economy. If negotiations. protests and the like can be initiated by the Prime Minister in a "private" capac- ity, Parliament is bound to be grave- ly handicapped in carrying out its constitutional functions.

Delicate Question

It will be recalled that when Secretary of State John Foster Dul- les was under Congressional fire for what his critics called ineptitude and inefficiency in dealing with problems which led up to the Suez crisis President Eisenhower defended him most vigorously. In fact, the Presi- dent went so far as to call his chief aide ”the wisest and most knowing diplomat in the world toda.V-" The”? could not be any higher praise than that; and there is no doubt that it perked Ilir. Dulles up very consider-

use force in settling disputes. Spec- ifically, it provides for' Auicrican armed intervention whenever Soviet aggression against any Middle East state is indicated, provided the in- lured state asks for assistance. Should the Soviet Union decide to take over Syria, let us say. or Saudi Arabia or Iraq. the purpose would he to gain control of oil resources and pipelines and to estalilisli bases for possible use against the West. if that purpose hasn't in it the marks of an international dispute, then there is no such a thing. Or, supposing Egypt were to refuse use of the Suez Canal, once it has been cleared of obstructions, to Israel. Britain and France, which seems likely. Would that not be an inter- national dispute? And could any- thing but the rise of force resolve it, in view of the proven futility of long, wearisome harangues in the U.N?

Anyone can see that President Eisenhower is trying desperately to convince Arab governments that the United States is pledged to work for solutions to problems within the framework of the United Nations Charter. That is one thing. But what relation it bears to the announced intentions of the Eisenhower Doct- rine is a mystery that remains un- solved. The communique does, how-

ever, reveal in a negative way one

' .; l;!l',"GIlII'lv

thing for which we can all be thank- ful. It lays no stress on the place of "moral principles” in international affairs. Thank goodness they spared ud that platitude which. in view of wdi Arabia's suppression of free-

in all its forms, would have

l ed grotesqueness to confusion.

- II .- . t -.3. Why Conticlential i? T" Prime Minister St. Laurent has i it be known that he reserves the hi to carry on "confidential" cor- iii-zpontlence with President Eisen- libwer or any other head of govern- ment without feeling obliged to keep Parliament informed on the subject rt-llatter of h is letters. Opposition l & der Diefenbakcr, on the other nil. has declared this to be not in ii plug with Parliamentary rights. I. e two views came outiin a Com- ri1ons' flare-up concerning a protest rfhich Mr. St. Laurent is reported to have sent President Eisenhower on the-United States' farm surplus disposal program.

To an outsider there would seem to be something to be said for both views. each within limits. Tl1ere.can hardly be any doubt that if Mr. St. Laurent feels like writing to Mr. Eisenhower on some personal mat- ter of mutual interest-golf scores,

for instance, or the irritating habits

politknl critics-there is no rea-' JQI why he should be under obliga- f 36 report the event to Parlia- It is doubtful whether most HIV! any past interest in H. M III? Hoe. when it comes 30 WH'9lfl3I'ldenoe about matters

ably. Uniiitentioiially, however. as things turned out. it caused him a little embarrassment, too.

At a news conference lilr. Dulles was asked how he felt about the President's testimonial to his un- equalled greatness. "Well," Mr. Dul- les replied, "it makes you feel pretty good when a person with the wis- dom aiid experience of President Eiseiiliowcr says a thing like that about you. It makes your heart warm." Of course it would, especially when that person is 0nc's superior arid the head of a great State. It is doubtful whether any precedent for it was ever laid down in political councils.

in the circunistances, Illr. Dullcs' reply to the question was as apt as any man could be expected to pro- duce on the spur of the moment. It must have bothered him. neverthe- less. No doubt he would have liked to say that the President himself is the wisest and most knowing dip- lomat in the world. But. how could be? There can be only one wisest man; and since by Presidential au- thority he is that one, be either had to be content with putting Mr. Ei- senhower in a lower notch. though still a high one, or risk the Presi- dent's displeasure by contradicting him. and that of course would never do at all. It was. indeed, a delicate question that faced the Secretary of State; and the rash reporter who asked it deserves to be pilloried-or given a medal, according to one's point of view.

EDITORIAL NOTES

President Nasser of Egypt says he had no objection whatever to the visits of King Saud of Saudi Arabia and the Crown Prince of Iraq to .Washingion. In fact. he says, he wouldn't mind making the trip him- self if he were invited. No doubt, he is anxious to pick up a share of whatever benefits are being handed

out.

The head of the United Statcs' National Guard. which came in for some sharp criticism from Secre- tary of Defence Wilson lately. says that guardsmen are far ahead of regular army personnel in military tests. The chief of staff of the army, on the other hand. says that army units are far ahead of the guards- men. There's a question that will have to be settled by the President who is the Commander in Chief of both branches of the service. So far he has merely observed that he likes

them all.

A memorial sent by a group of Canadian citizens to the Federal Government for transmission to the Queen has been handed, instead. to Immigration Minister Pickersglll. That may give Mr. Pickeragill a fleeting moment of grandeur. It was, nevertheless, an unwarranted inter- ference with the rights of citizens. If the document had been forwarded to the Qieen, Her Majesty in all probability would have referred it to her Canadian ministers for advice its merits.

THE WHITE CANE nits AT”MEssA'G'E if"

A commiinicaluin is to hand from my cousin Georges cousin George; presently on holiday with his radio in the lnicly township of West Marysburgh on the southern edge of Her lvlajr-styls Dominion of Canada. it reads:

from the United Nations. Suddenly the program cut off in uiidplati- tude and over my high fidelity radio came a new voice and new words:

YOUR WALK MAY REVEAL

YOUR STATE OF HEALTH

A doctor can tell a lot about I person's health simply by ab- serving the way he walks. You probably can. too.

You've seen elderly persons who are forced to take shun steps. They walk with sort of a ' i gait. Often this can be attritbul- ed to hardening of the arteries or other ailments which generally come with neglect. during advanc- ing age.

The most common cause of dis- turbances in gait or both children and adults is faulty or abnormal bone structure in the legs or back.

Bowed-legs and know-knee are examples of such abnormalities. Muscular disorder: also affect a person's walk.

A progressive case of muscular dystrophy. for example. produc- es an awkward. waddling gait. The person leans back from his hips as he walks.

GOOD INDICATION

Of course. we can't make an ac- i

curate diagnosis based entirely up- on a person's walk. Brit when his walk is considered with other sym- ptoms. lt does give us a pretty good indication of what is wrong,

There must be smooth and close coordination among the nerves. muscles, bones and joints of the burly for proper walking.

There are six basic displace- ments of the body: center of grav- ity which determine yuur gait. These are the lateral pelvic move- nu-ut. Pelvic tilt pelvic rotation kncc llexion and knee and foot

interaction. SYSTEM OF NERVES When this vast systcui of

nerves and muscles is functioning properly. you can walk with rela- tively little energy.

when one of these determining factors loses its effectiveness. you might be able to compensate for the loss with only a little more

- effort. But let something go wrong

When you talk you say only I something you know; when you ' listen you learn what some one . else knows. -Brandon Sun

Apdarently all the spending curbs to beat inflation are to come from the public and if it doesn't work only the public can be blam- ed. The Government is exempt from the principle and its bank account is so choked with sur- plus funds siphoned off from the taxpayers through a deliberate policy of over-taxation that it is hard put to find acceptable ways or irlticring it away by the bar- relful to mollify the voters in an election year. -Calgary Herald.

Although medlueval churches were the first to present dramas with a moral before theatres came -

(Jhristians and Jews, this special .

observance seeks to promote that spirit of understanding and toler- ance which is the fundamental prerequisite not only of our nation- al well-being but indeed of world peace.

We licar a grunt dcal those days about the gulf nf ignorance and misiindcrsianding which sep- arates the peoples of the West from those who dwell in the great

land mass of Asia. After having -

spent two months visiting coun- tries in the latter area, I am happy to report that real pro- gress is being made towards remedying this unhappy situation. For example. at the ministerial meetings of the Colombo Plan which were held in Wellington. New Zealand early last Dec- ember. I sat at the same table with men and women frnin many countries--both Asian and Western --representing a wide diversity of backgrounds, And yet despite these differences. the whole atinospher: of our discrissinns was marked by a spirit of friendship and co- operation--by a genuine interest and concern on all sides for one another's problems. All were. united in a common dedication to the immense task of creating I Smith and South-l-Inst Asia.

I shall always remember that experience and also the many expresslons of lloodwlll towards Canada accorded me wherever I went lliroughnu Asia. l return home now more than ever con- vinced that despite the tension and strife of these troubled times. the cause of human brotherhood will ultimately prevail-that as in (lan- nila. iricn and women the world nu-r will learn to merge their differences In building a com- nuinity in which all may live in dignity and freedom.

it aizaln?" NO OBLIGATION

Mr. St. Laurent disagreed; the ,.... t would be under no obligation - ”the govcrnnmnt was under no obligation to do It”.

But If the government wait under no obligation to do it. why did it do it? What reason or right or justification did it have to assoc- iate the names of two men with something of national benefit that is being paid for out of the Bell- erallpool of revenues. out of all our taxes?

No doubt the succession duties

of Sir James Dunn and Mr. Klllam ;

helped. Did they help any more than I poulhle 8l00.000.000 of extra taxes from. let us say. the growing enterprises of Mr. E.P. Taylor? Or help more the ag- greggle personal income taxes of hundreds oruiouumis of general tax-payers?
