Maritime conference

The proposed meeting of the premiers of the four Atlantic Provinces hold "tre- mendous possibilities” in the words of Premier Hugh John Flemming of New Brunswick. When they assemble at Mone- ion Sept. 14th they are expected to discuss plans for pooling resources for projects which might be beyond the means of each.

These Provinces are on the verge of large industrial development. Resources which were previously unknown or inac- rcssiblc are now ready for exploitation and can be developed either with local capital or, if that is not forthcoming, by American and other outside investment. It would be very much better, however, if our own peo- ple take the initiative as far as possible. imported capital can bring about rapid de- velopment but it is not to be expected that,

chief difficulty. "It is hard enough to get agreement on the structure of national forces, with each Chief of Staff tightingf for his own service. But in NATO we want to decide on the structure of allied forces as a whole; we have fourteen nations and the difficulties are multiplied more than fourteen times. However, it can and must be done.”

iiypngis And Monkey tiiaiids

The medical profession has come a long way from the days of witch doctors and such but has not altogether rid itself of the fear of being accused of quackery. There can be little doubt that research on gland activity would have proceeded much faster had doctors not taken fright at the prospect,of being identified with t.he "mon- key gland" experiments.

Medical interest in hypnosis would have developed at a much earlier date had the profession not feared that it was bound to be associated in the public mind with charlatans and exhibitionists.

The unfortunate result of that over caution is that these and other matters of great medical interest have been left to be exploited by the unscrupulous and ignorant. If hypnosis had been accepted as a promis- ing line of investigation by the medical pro- fession the public would no more tolerate its use for questionable entertainment than they would applaud the use of radium or

having taken the initial risks, the investors would be ready to turn over the establish-' ed industries to local investors taking a be- lated interest.

These Provinces are blest with excellent: uoinmunications, nearness to both Ameri- ran and world markets and with resources which are only now beginning to be ap- preciated. The drain of young people to other lands of opportunity has taperedtoff so that nothing is lacking for expansion. Nothing, that is, except a readiness on the part of our people to grasp their opportuni- .ies. The long; years of looking elsewhere for fame and fortune, particularly the lat- ier, have left their legacy of mistrust of local enterprise. What is required at the moment is a little of the "boom psychology" so characteristic of the West a few years

ago. ..L...:.::A:-.-:a

Lord Montgomery's warning "on I

One of the most thought-provoking, speeches of our time was delivered this week before the Canadian Club at Ottawa by Field Marshal Viscount Montgomery of Alamein. lle dealt with the problem of world defense, and at the outset empha- sized that this problem is of tremendous complexity, calling for all the courage, wis- riom, understanding and, unity in the free world-far greater than has been shown .n the past.

It is not just one of preparing for some anticipated date of aggression on the part iif the Communist East. It will not be

i()iVed by building up large forces by a cer-i

'ain date, without regard as to how those iorces are to be maintained and kept up .0 date in equipment over a prolonged per- mi of cold war. The problem is, rather, low to get preparedness against attack by in aggressor, and how nations can be so -zeared that they can spring to arms quick- 'y in the face of such aggression. The plan nust be shaped in such a way as to give security for, say, twenty-five years and it nust be in full accord with practical reali- lies and economic possibilities. Military

the X-ray for a similar purpose.

This comment deals chiefly with the past, of course. Science today is readier to explore new fields, but the fear of ridicule is still a potent force to retard progress. The spirit of research requires. to be accompanied by a thick skin and the public must learn that if it is to get the best out of its scientific pioneers it must; permit them to fouow their inquiries in” peace.

Today there are, as always, popular channels of investigation, but if scientists, are not permitted to follow up leads in un-', expected directions the advancement of' knowledge will be seriously impeded. .

strength, Lord Montgomery emphasized, is an illusion unless it rests on a sound econ- omic basis.

The problem can only be dealt with on it global basis, and is complicated by the fact. that no nation will want to keep its land forces for ever across the seas in peace 'ime in the countries of other nations. As 'egards manpower, no nation can afford to (eep very large active forces "in being" in JCEICC time; active forces are expensive and heir size should be adjusted to the na- tional problem. Reserve forces can be rel- atively cheap; but these will be useless for quick action unless they are carefully or- ganized and receive adequate training in peace time.

Viscount Montgomery laid great stress on the importance of the North Atlantic Treaty Organization as "the strong right arm” of the United Nations Organization. "If NAHID had come into being earlier there would be no Second World War," he said. "In the strengthening of NATO lies the best hope of preventing a Third World War.". If war comes again, the superior potential of the free nations must win in the"q ' , provided they are not overwhelm- ed , " ' they can develop their full war " The crux of the problem is how

He fought in the Irish rebellion in 1798, in Denmark, and was wounded and taken . prisoner at Corunna and took part in the expedition to Chesapeake Bay in August, 1814. This included the capture of Wash- ington and the burning of the White House but failure to take Baltimore. Hts later gcareer included a great victory at Meeanee 'in India by which he subdued the rulers of lsind. He wrote many books of coloniza- !tion and government. -

Down in Alabama, notes the Windsor Star, a vending machine for eggs is in use. Customers drive up to it, drop in the re- quired amount, and, out pops a' dozen of fresh eggs. It is called an "eggomat." Hens scarcely will be surprised at this develop- ment. For they themselves have become as close to automate as it is possible for living creatures to be. Over in England there has been quite a discussion about the new practice of keeping a hen, all her work- lng life, penned up in a tiny cage. She can
