burdens which he was finding too onerous at 70, and for which, pre- sumably, he will be duly grateful. The announcement says he request- ed the retirement because of age and deteriorating health.

In any case, his jobs are being divided between two of his lieuten- ants, of whom the outside world knows little or nothing: Leonid Brezhnev and Alexei Kosygin. We shall have to accustom ourselves to these names; they will crop up frequently from now on. Wheth- er. as in Mr. Khrushchev’s own case, one of them will succeed in ousting the other and taking over full au- thority, remains to be seen. The fact that must be faced is that we are in for a new regime in Russia; with possible changes in foreign policy that may have far-reaching results for all of us.

After a decade in power, Mr. Khrushchev showed signs of mel- lowing with experience, and of pre- fering peaceful rather than aggres- sive means of achieving his aims. Perhaps it was his “softening” at- titude toward the Western democ- racies—at least to the extent of denouncing nuclear war as suicidal madness and cooperating in peace- ful pursuits and in limitation of armaments—that led to his being placed on the shelf.

We may never know; but the chances are that his successors— or ultimate successor—will be more difficult to deal with. “Better to bear the ills we have,” as Shakes- peare reminds us, “than fly to oth- ers that we know not of." Perhaps we are being too pessimistic; but it has often occurred to us, of late, that among the blessings we should be giving thanks for was Mr. Khrushchev’s continued health. Now he is in eclipse, and his health. one way or the other, is his own concern. All we can hope for is that it doesn’t mean a. setting of the Krem- lin’s course in a more belligerent direction.

e I a Dr. King 5 Campaign It is said that the Norweigian National Assembly, which is charg-

ed with the responsibility of award-.

ing the Nobel Peace Prize, had be- fore it a list of 20 to 30 names of candidates for the 1964 award, in- cluding those of former U.S. Presi- dent Eisenhower, former British Prime Minister Lord Avon (Sir Anthony Eden), French President de Gaulle and former West German Chancellor Konrad Adenauer. It decided, as the world now knows, in favor of a 35-year-old Negro clerygman, Dr. Martin Luther King, Jr., for his leadership in the civil rights movement in the United States.

It is reported, also, that Dr. King’s candidacy was sponsored by leading political figures in Europe and the United States and by news- papers of all political leanings in Norway, as well as by eight Swed- ish members of parliament repre- senting all the parliamentary part- ies in that country.

What has distinguished Dr. King's fight for racial equality has been his insistence on pursuing a nonsviolent course. What he seeks to establish is, in his own words, "a reign of justice and a rule of love.” He has devoted his life to the move- ment, taking as his model India’s Gandhi, who preached peaceful dem- onstrations and passive resistance.

Others of Dr. King’s race have been impatient with the slow pro- gress of his campaign, and have re- sorted to other means to achieve results. One can understand their attitude, and sympathize with it. The provocations have been great. But violence has a fatal tendency to breed violence, and in the end it is by moral suasion-that this great issue must be determined.

It is the mark of a truly great leader that Dr. King can see this truth so clearly, and follow it so consistently. He is hopeful that the Nobel award will give further impetus to civil rights claims along these lines, and there is no doubt that the same thought was in the minds of the donors in signalling him out for this coveted honor.

EDITORIAL NOTES

A greater overall effort is need- ed to put the P.E.I. United Fund campaign over the top. Only a few days remain to achieve this result, and it is to be hoped the response will be in keeping with the import- ance of the drive, and the urgent needs of the many worthwhile or- ganizations involved.

ANOTHER CLOAK FOR ANOTHER ELIZABETH

OTTAWA REPORT by

New Work On Canadian Prime Ministers

The 97 years of Canadian Confederation have been des- cribed from a fascinating angle by the well-known journalist Bruce Hutchison in his latest book. “Mr. Prime Minister, 1867-1964"_ This is a descrip- tion of Canada’s political his- tory as seen from its kernel, the prime minister's office.

The author aptly describes this as "a tale of adventure at the apex of Canadian power - a narrative of alternating suc- cess. failure and sometimes bit- ter sorrow." And he truly adds that it is “much less plausible than fiction."

Bruce Hutchison is always readable, always interesting. To these qualities, he adds in

Concrete procedures for ad- mitiing new members to the Organization of American States will be the subject of a confer- ence expected to be held next

month.

Argentina Oct. 9 specifically requested such a meeting, fol- lowing speculation that this step was imminent. A full-scale OAS reorganization is e ted to be undertaken at a conference next

spring.

Two British Commonwealth governments from the Carib- bean—Trinidad-Tobaco and Ja- maica—have been soliciting ad- mittance. especially Trinidad- Tobago. lnformants say both may succeed before Christmas. The situation has implications for Canada in pondering its long deferred decision on whether to join the 21-nation OAS. External Affairs Minister Martin has called membership 8 part of Canada's "ultimate destiny" in hemisphere rela-

tions. ADMISSION NOT AUTOMATIC Not that the admission of new states. particularly from the British Commonwealth, can be considered an automatic one. Even though tile late presi- dent Kennedy strongly urged Canadian membership in h speech before Parliament in Ot- tawa in early 1961. there are elements which could be hostile

UNDER DISPUTE Argentina has been at odds with Britain for years about the Falkland Islands in the South Atlantic, under British rule, plus the South Pole areas.

Argentina has not opposed the admission of Jamaica or Trini- dad-Tobago but it does fear that difficulties could arise from other sources.

There are no clear rules for admitting new members OAS. The Argentine reasons that areas now controlled by Britain and other European na- tions -— and claimed by Latin American countries—could get their independence and OAS membership.

Thus it is expected that the meeting of the OAS will decide to consider only those applica- tions from areas which lie out- side such disputed territory as the Falklands or British Hon- dtizras, which Mexico also cov- e .

The oaks are majestic in their bronze or deep brown. the white birch wear leaves now of shim- mering yellow. the poplar a lit- tle less yellow. the elm still less. But these caught against the background of green on the pines, spruce. cedar and balsam make a graceful quilt of color in some ways as attractive as when the reds were screami and the wine-red blotchea of su- mac at their feet are not yet Al~ together gone.

ance by describing him o at 46 years of ago. our youngest prime minister - as “perhaps the most brilliant in mind, with lavish talents, and certainly the most unfortunate in politics." Of his relationship with his arch rival, Mackenzie King, the author says that “the mutual detestatlon of these two men has no parallel in Canadian pol- itics." Meighen called King “the most contemptible charl- aiion ever to darken the an- nals of Canadian politics." The reader will certainly feel contempt for King when read- ; Bruce Hutchison’s account of the Raiston crisis. “The Prime Minister reminded the Cabinet that two years ago Balaton had submitted his re~ signation (from the Cabinet) . . . The resignation would be ccepted immediately . . . T e cold ferocity of that blow struck the Cabinet dumb."

Voters will be interested by Hutchison’s views on what he calls the tragedy of the Losi Prophet, Canada's thirteenth prime minister. John Diefen- baker - “a tragedy for the man and for the nation that he hac‘ mlsgove ."

"The significant and costly result of Diefenbaker’s rule,‘ the author concludes, “was tht disorder of public business. the break-down of the two-party system, the loss of national con- fidence in the parliamentary system itself, and hence the grave damage to the office of Prime Minister." Finally. Bruce brings his readers to Mike Pearson's "dlsmal beginning" which he says may end in total failure for a government whose greatest asset is "the sitlon and
