The architects of the formula foresaw a danger in this course and tried to overcome it by introducing a new, experimental device called dele- gation. If all the provinces were un- able to agree to some nation-wide amendment. a group ®f them could accomplish the desired result within their own boundaries by delegating some of their powers to the federal government. Of in reverse (which is much more probable) the federal government could delegate its pow- ers. to the provinces.

' By this means, it was hoped, the unilateral veto could be broken, in some areas at least, and the strait jacket relaxed. But the risks of delegation, unless they are forestalled in advance, could be more danger- ous than the risks of stalemate. For a weak Parliament, under pressure from powerful provinces at: election time, might delegate powers that should never be shared with the pro- vinces. To prevent that erosion cer- tain essential fields of jurisdiction

the mission to the moon, allow a brief «

visit to the lunar surface, and then re-

turn to earth. If it goes full time with

its two-man crew. it will have put

Americans in orbit on a mission 73

hours longer than the longest Soviet ” space flight to date.

The prime objective, however, is that of gaining experience in space _rendezvous and docking—the fantas- ‘tically difficult techniques for bring- ing two orbiting objects close to-

_ gether and. in the case of docking,

The present project, in- tended to last 30 days with possible extention to 45, will involve a broad range of studies on oceanography, marine biology and ocean bottom geology.

While these questions are under consideration ihe formula The time, let us hope, will not be wasted. ’ Surely the leaders of government, federal and provincial, can devise a more satisfactory document. It is bootless and misleading to maintain, as some of them are still doing, that the present one meets the require- ments.

The Pressures Mounting: According to James Reston, one of the ablest of the New York Times’ correspondents at Washington, the Johnson administration is now dis- covering what President Eisenhower meant in his farewell warning to the nation about the power of an indus- trial-military complex in the country. In the frustrations:and uncertainties of the Vietnamese war, the pressures are mounting on the President and his civilian aides to ,increase arms production, to crank up the whole mobilization process, to call up the re- serves and declare a national emer- gency on the assumption that the fighting is going to continue indefin- itely-and-become—steadily- more -vio- lent.

All kinds of powerful forces are involved in this campaign, says Res- ton. Congressmen who have. been complaining about military bases be- ing closed in their constituencies now want them reopened in the name of “préparedness” for the Vitetnamese war.

in that- setting has just been brought back to Parliament Hill -by an MP who spent his sum- mer’s only three-day holiday on the David Thompson Cavalcade.

Bob Thompson, the Social -Cre- | dit leader piled his- wifé “and |

Just ever 150 years ago, the explorer and fur-trader David Thompson was the first white man. to travel down ,the Colum- bia River, from its headwaters in the Rockies.to the Pacific Coast. 2% years ago, some Al-

miles of bush trail to Whirlpool Point. i The cavalcade ~planned this year to go as far as the Kooten- ay Plains only, and there 2,500 men, women and children, ar- riving in 800 cars and caravans from points as far afield as Van- couver and the Lakehead, pitch- ‘ed camp for three days on the historic old Indian campsite. On Saturday evening, the cav- alcaders staged a concert with their own talent, then turned the Kootenay Plains into Can- ada’s largest open-air cinema to view a film made by the Nation- al Film Board on the story of | David Thompson. | HELD POWWOW “Church services were held on Sunday~morningIn_ the | noon Stoney Indians came from the Bighorn Reserve held a pow- wow and performed their medi- cifie dance: then the cavalcad | ers pitched’ horseshoes, sang songs and visited.

The David Thompson High way would not only cut 90 miles off the distance to Vancouver; it would also have great tourist appeal, passing such scenic points as the Bighorn Falls, the ghost towns of Nordegg and™ Al exo, Whirlpool Point—not to. mention the big timbers flanking David Thompson's own river, The cavalcade has now achiev- ed *its objective: a paved highs way is to be. constructed, and will be open to tourists'in Cen- tennial Year.

“We have our own views on some of these points and they | are not being forgotten,’ said |

In some respects, the US. draft follows closely the lines of an eightpoint program the | Canadian government has been circulating for some months on | a working-paper basis. q

It embodies, first, the “Irish | resolution’’ basic concept of a |

clear powers not to transfer in- dependent control of these wea- | pons to any other nation or organization and from the non- | nuclear countries not to acquire or manufacture nuclear arms.

It also proposes, like the Ca- nadian draft, to apply safe- guards of the International Atomic Energy Agency to en- sure that nuclear—power—being used for peaceful purposes is not transferred to military use. KEY OMISSIONS

Missing from the American draft, however, is any real ref- erence to the guarantee-sanction provision which featured the Ca- | nadian proposals. This would have assured non-nuclear na- tions—as long as they remained in that category—the assistance of the_nuclear powers in event of a nuclear attack
