. kk The "3 Points

A report from lliasliiiigton says that Secretary of State Dulles, Mr. Henry Cabot Lotigc. chief delegate to the L'nm-d Naatitiiis, and other Anierican officials are "overjoyed" at tiie calling of a special meeting oftthe (icncial Asseiiilily for Sept. 10 to tli.-cuss the report on Hungary. Mr. Lodge. in a joyful moment, went to the trouble of naming three points which the tiencral Assembly must keep in mind when the report comes up for tlclmtc: 1. The Soviet Union has not witlitirimn its forces from llungziry. This is in defiance of the olt PNlll't':Sl'(I wish of the General Asst-inhlv '.'. The Hungarian rcgimefof Janos l(atl.u' is carrying on a policy of arrests and intimida- tion that is absolutely repulsive. This policy should be stopped. 3. The report (of the special commit- tee) is full of facts dcnionslrating beyond doubt the dominant role of the Soviets in cru-lung the Freedom Fighteis last fall.

There is nothing in these three points which is new or startling. It has all been said so many times that every delegate in the l'.N. must be heartily sick of it. But from Sept. 10 to Sept. 17. the time of the open- ing of the regular session. it will be repeated many times more, with the same result-- nothing. Another resolution will be preseiited and probably passed. calling on. the Rus- sians to get out of Hungary and allow free elections in that country. The Russians will say ”nn" as they have said so many times in the past: and that will be the end of it.

Meanwhile. it will probably never occur to llr. Lodge to admit that the Freedom Figiiters were crushed last fall only because the United States refused to take a firm stand in their behalf for fear of the Soviet L'nion. That is the one fact above all others that needs to be remem- bered as the General Assembly gets. down to another timc-wasting dis- cussion. (luriously. Mr. l.odge does not mention it in his "3 Points".

ll . . H ' Moonlighting

A new. picturesque word has been added to our ever-evolving English language. It is "moonlight- ing" and it means the practice of one person holding down two or more jobs.

The I-'rcticriclon Gleaner com- ments that ”moonlig,liling" is flown- ed upon for a number of reasons. both by companies and by labor unions. But their opposition has had no more effect on "moonlighting" that did that of the late King Canule upon another sort of wave.

For ”nioonligliiing" is born of a combination of numerous available jobs anti .1 growing inflation which takes away the legitimate earnings of these jobs.

Take the equally common prac- tice of husbands and wives both working. No such picturesque word as "moonlighting" has yet been coin- ed to describe this, but prevalence B undeniable.

The current economic situation In forcing families who wish to main- tain accepted standards of living, or to save for the future. or for some gpeclflc expenditure. to adopt one or the other of these practices.

demand and the demand diminish- ing as soon as an unlimited supply is assured. Every parent will recog- nize a pattern of behaviour that in more familiar in children but never- theless applies to all ages.

Prince Edward Island had an outstanding experience of the same thing in the silver fox industry. When silvers were rare people would pay almost any price for them. The dress industry sought every means of applying the fur to costumes for every occasion and ladies vied with one another to wear the finest of silver fox furs.

Then when breeding stock was sent from this Province to other parts of Canada. the United States, Norway, Japan. Russia and else- where production jumped and prices tumbled. instead of the more eco-

nomical fur gaining in popularity. however. it disappeared from many a cold shoulder.

The same observation might be made in connection with nylon stock- ings, although it would probably be fairer to take an cxuiiiple from men's habits. When it took every bit of persuasion a uoinzm could muster to get her sliare of stock- ings all the ladies uorc th--m.

It would seem that the prophets of plenty are dcluding tlicnist-Ives. The great day uhcn every man could sit under his own vine and fig tree was not a climax at all. By that time the man and his wife were interested in bringiiig more exotic delicacies from across the sea.

It is possible to stitisly cxcry want of men and iiomen but our whole civilization is based on the fact that new wants are discovered as rapidly as old ones are in fair way of being satisfied.

Legitimate Closure

It is no wonder that a good many Conservative members of Par- liament-and perhaps others. too- are hoping that the device of closure will be done away with soon. They remember with resentment that the former Liberal (lovernmcnt used it for throttling free debate. a purpose for which there was no authority.

Yet. on calm reconsideration. even the mpre outspoken critics of closure may decide that. under pro- per safeguards. the device has a use- fulness which ought to be protected. Free and unfettered debate is one thing. and it ought never to be in- terfered with. But it must not be confused with needless and weari- some chatter designed to obstruct due parliamentary process. The fili- buster. such as used to be practised in the United States almost as a matter of duty but which is now frowned upon even there is, in its way. just as anti-democratic a de- vice as was the application of closure In the pipe-line debate. It hasn't assumed serious form in the Cana- dian Parliament as yct: and let us hope it never will. Nevertheless, there ought to be some constitutional safeguard against it; and that is the function of closure.

How to preserve it as a legiti- mate device and. at the same time. make sure that it cannot be us--Ii for illegitimate purposes. would seem. therefore. to be the task awaiting the new Parliament. its proper status prbably will not be established until the office of Speak- er is made utterly independent. of , any political party. This goal was stressed by the ('onscrvatives in the election campaign. Now that they are in a position to do so. perhaps they will make haste to reach it.

EDITORIAL NOTES

Whatever other parties may be considering for the coming session of Parliament, it is clear that CCF members are preparing for battle. Well. they were never in as good a position to make their voices heard. it is to he hoped-and It can con- fidently be expected. so long as Mr. Caldwell is in command-that they will use their new influence wisely.

liis confidence was justified. At the end of the present session of New Zealand's Parliament. the prime minister. Sidney G. Holl- and. will retire owing to ill- health. Chosen to succeed him in Keith Jack Holyonke. the boy who predicted his future.

Without trying to be spectacu- lar. without making any special appeal to popular acclaim. he has advanced steadily and confidently during a quarter century of po- liiical life. Yet he will still be only 53 when ha takes over in October.

UNDET!-ERRED

lie retained his confidence even when defeated at the polls at one election. lie was equally sure of this destiny even when nominated to the ”suicida" post of minister of agriculture.

when he took over this job in 1949. five previous ministers of agriculture had last not only their post in the cabinet but also their seats in Parliament. and two more had been obliged to re- sign through ill health. The Iver- age political life of I minister of agriculture was only a little over two years. and it was the most dreaded post in the cabinet.

llolyoaks has defied the tradi- tion and is still popular with the farmers Ifter eight years in of- fice. eve though prices of some major farm products have fallen In recent years.

The future prime minister comes from pioneer stock who reached New Zealand in 1542. only two year, after the country becama I British colony. But his parents were never wealthy. FROM SCRATCH

He served on many farming or-

He has been in Parliament ever since except for one session when be we defeated. But he has also mnint 'ned his contact with farm- ing and now owns a farm in the Pnhiaiua electorate In the North island. which he represents in Parliament.

Elected deputy leader of the National party in 1947. he became deputy prime minister two years later when his party broke Ln- bor's long period in office.

His present chief. Holland. has always been an enthusiastic and uncritical gupporter of British po- licy. Holyoake is equally I sup- porter of strong links with Brit- ain. but is thought to take an cs- sentlnlly practical view in tho light of first-band oaparlnnca of the British Itlitudo.

Two pottery fragments believ- ad between is and 25 canturiu old have shed new light on ll early North American rnca. They were found by Paul Sacra of Montreal on I golf course in St. Andrew: East, so miles west of Monlraal.

Dr. J. D. McCall. president of tha Archnaologlcni Association of Quebec. Identified the fragments as the handiwork of the Point Peninsula people-named after the site of tha original discovery. Ho links tbs fragments with the major find It shoal: island Ianr Cornwall. Ont.

"So litila is known of the Point Peninsula paopla that any trace of their culture holds tremendous interest for ..chIeologists." said Dr. Mccoll. "There is I tlitory that the Point Ppeniiisula people were forerunners of tha Iro- quoln."

He said the finds in St. Andrews East. Point Peninsula Shock inland and Deep River, 0nl.. and oh and Larolle. 0:12.. indicate the people were nomads and ate chiefly fish and game.

From time to time the nomads gathered together to conduct business. Irrnnge marriages and bury tbs dud. Burials were im- portant Ind ceremonlous. The dud warn dismembered. cre- mated and buried in I plt with stone blades and other objects.

Warfare was not common but violence was.

some drivers apparently seek to "air-condition" their nutns by unina dry ice as I cooling agent. To obtain the full effect of the cooling power of the dry ice. they keep the car window: clon- od securely.

Now this presents I potential hazard of which the driver prob- baly in unaware-carbon dioxide intoxication.

In I recent lasue of "Missiorl Medicine." Dr. A.L. Waller of Se- dalia. Missouri. warns of this danger. And since I think it is of Importance to all drivers who might be thinking of various ways lg keep cool. I'd like to pass it on to you.

MAY CAUSE DEATII

According to National Safety Council. carbon dioxide in 10 per cent concentration may produce unconsciousness. in larger quan- titiel it may cause death by sul- focation.

it's believed that many auto ac- cidents have occurred because of side effects of carbon dioxide in- toxicnliou.

Dr. Walter cites a case in which I man and his mother were over- come while driving a car with the windows closed. in the rear seat was 60 gallons of ice cream. sealed in cartons packed with 100 pounds of dry ice The fumes were too much for the unsuspec- ting couple.

POTENTIAI. DANGER

Of course dealers in dry Ice are being alerted to this poten- tial danger. They should cau- .lon customers against driving an to: with the windows closed when transporting dry ire. However. they are generally busy persons and they might forget.

Since most of those who read

this column drive cars. lid like to carry the massage right to the mntoristettie one who suffers most from his or the dealer's neg- ligence.

So let me emphasize once I- gain:

if you have any reason to trans- port dry ice. he sure the auto is Idequatley ventilated. QUESTION AND ANSWER.

LP. I am 70 years old and drink three quarts of milk daily. Will too much calcium from tho milk hurt me?

Answer: Since excessive calci- um is eliminated by the body. it I is unlikely that drinking a large amount of milk will be harmful to you. .

However. If you drink ltireel quarts of milk daily. it may not be possible for you In eat all the other foods-such as fruits. vege- tnblu. carealii Ind meIt-neces- snry to make your diet wall-bIl- Inced.

For this reason. it might be well to reduce the quantity a! milk you are taking.
