Premier Khrushchev's Scandin- avian tour is not. improving his temper. He found the Danes firm- ly resolved to .maintain their West.- ern ties. and lectured them on being afflicted with‘ "the disease of na- tionalist shortsightedness." He rac- ed through inspections of three thriving farms on the island of Funem and then told his hosts that he had learned nothing new about farming from them.

Clearly irritated by what he considered a condescending attitude in the field of agriculture, he said the Danes thought of him before his, arrival as “the. northern bar- harian,” to be taught. enlightenment. He told them that. “our people have. grown to complete comprehension of the political and social realities and yours have not." and warned them not. to plan on Soviet. purchases of their food products over a long period.

Russian farm problems. he. pre- dicted. would be. solved within seven or eight years or "I will say I am not a Communist and I will tear up my party card. We cannot permit people to point at its and say the Communists cannot solve their agri- cultural difficulties."

The Soviet leader had reason to be sensitive about the contrast be- tween the flourishing agriculture of Denmark and that of his own coun- try. This does not, as he said sar- castically. prove that “we are. dumb and you are clever." But it does prove that when farmers can pro- duce and benefit from the full amount of their production they are more successful. The “political and social realities“ of the Soviet Union over the years have made the peas- ants lose interest in production, for they share so little in the fruits of, their labor.

Mr. Khrushchev will find fur- ther evidence of the advantages of the democratic way of life in Sweden, whither he has now betaken

'himself. There too he will find that

the political and social realities are fully comprehended by the people, and that freedom and the chance for individual initiative are power- ful stimulants to farm production. If he really wants a program for making Soviet agriculture succeed. he might try creating the same con- ditions at home.

A Serious Prospect

Washington commentators are now predicting that something very undesirable indeed could happen if Senator Goldwater gets the Repub- lican nomination in the Us. presi- dential election. His opposition to the civil rights bill would likely re- sult in this issue dominating the campaign. A duel between him and President Johnson, who has spon- sored the bill. would amount to a national referendum on the subject And there is no doubt that racial tensions would mount. splitting the country over an issue on which a bloody civil war was fought a cen- tury ago.

The reason Senator Goldwater gives for his opposition is consid- ered as important as the vote itself. He shards two parts of the bill. the movision for federal enforce- ‘ the “Munitions” feature and the "fair upployment

hi the afﬁliation than that. out first in his

earner statements, and his twn books—“The Conscience of a Conservative." and “Why Not Vic- tory ?"—Senatpr Goldwater advanc- ed the same constitutional argument against a variety of other federal activities which are widely accepted. In the first-named book he main- tained that “any federal aid pro- gram. however desirable it might appear. must be regarded as illegal until such time as the Constitution is amended."

On the question of farm aid he stated: "This instance of distorting the plain meaning of the. Constitu- tion‘s language is perhaps the most flagrant on record." Foreign aid like- wise he denounced as unconstitu- tional. and on the question of school integration he had this to say: “The federal government does not require the states to maintain racially mix- ed schools. Despite the recent hold- ing of the Supreme Court. I am firme convinced . . that the Con- stitution does not permit any inter- ference whatsoever by the federal government in the field of educa- tion."

These were the Goldwater views in 1961. in the subsequent. three years he has modified them. but, by raising the old constitutional doubt about the civil rights bill he has shown that his conversion has not gone very deep.

(‘an the party of Lincoln nomin- ate such a man? With the great: majority of Republicans in both houses of Congress suppmt‘ting civil

rights. it seems incredible that it

should come to this pass. Endorses Fluoridation One. of the recomiﬁindations

made by the royal commission on health services deals with a matter of special interest to those who fought. unsuccessfully, a few years ago. to provide water fluoridation for Charlottetown. All community water systems in Canada. says the Commission report, should be flouri- dated.

This finding is based on the fact that “the evidence now gathered over 30 years is that, the technicue of flouridation properly controlled is effective, inexpensive and safe." This being so. the commission makes no bones about. recommending that there be federal-provincial co-opera- tion in the installation of flourida- tion systems. grants to the provinces of 75 per cent of the costs of equip- ment, the fluoridation of water sup- plies under federal jurisdiction and the adoption by public health author- ities of other means of providing fluoridation where community water systems are non-existent.

According to health authorities, there are now 188 Canadian com- munities where water supplies are mechanically fluoridated. Some 20 per cent. of the Canadian population is covered. There should no longer be any fear of the process. or doubt as to its value in reducing dental caries. But the commission evident- ly believes that voluntary action is not enough, that the matter is of nation-wide concern. and that meas- ures should be taken accordingly.

Keeping The Lid On

It. is significant that the vote in the U.N. Security Coucil on Satur- day, extending the life of the United Nations peace-keeping force in Cyp- rus for a second three-month period. was unanimous. It was supported by Communist R u ssia and Czecho- slovakia as well as by the neutral and western powers. All were agreed that the Cypriot civil war must be kept in check, and that fighting would almost certainly break out again should the United Nations leave. the island.

There are new financial compli- cations. however. Voluntary con- tributions left. a small surplus in covering the $5.4 million cost of the first three months but the cost will be about $7.3 million for the second period. Secretary-General U Thant termed this method of financing “most unsatisfactorv." but acknow- ledged that no alternative appears practical. Looking to the future. he said that progress would depend on the willingness of the leaders of the hostile factions to he "more flex- ible." '

Unfortunately, nothing in their attitude as yet shows any real willingness to seek compromise. A permanent solution can be found only in political term-5, and that is a long way off.

Urges Consumers’ Bill Of Rights

is the "large economy sine" really a bargain?

The poor bewildered consum er cannot tell this. without a mathematical training and a slide-rule. And since the con- sumer who 5 to answer this question is generally the har- rassed housewife. this means that father's pay-packet can only be protected by mother if she is able to do some ready reckoning with a slide-rule in front of every shelf in the gro- ceteria.

There are ot h e r questions which the consumer should ask and have answered for his own protection too. according to Dr. Pauline Jewell. when she ad- dressed the Canadian Associa- tion of Consumers on the topic “The Consumer and Govern- ment.“

"It is almost impossible now. adays for the average consum er really to know whether the products he buys meet mini- mum standards of safety. qual- ity and efficacy." she said. “Or to know how much he is really paying for consumer credit; whether one prepared food has

more nutritional value than an '

other; whether the performanc of a product will .in fact meet his needs and. whether the 'large economy size‘ really is a bargain."

NEED GOVERNMENT HELP In what. are sometimes called

I ' "the good old days“. the house-

wife who ventured into the mar- ket place was protected only by her native cunning and the em- pty phrase "caveat. emptor -— let. the buyer beware." Today however the tendency is to ex- pect the government to look af- ter us from the womb to the tomb. and in line with this. po litical scientist. Pauline Jewell makes a novel suggestion: let the government set up a spe- cial department. headed by cabinet minister, to protect and inform the consumer.

Nevertheless Miss .lewett paid tribute to the services ren- dered in this direction by the Canadian Association of Con- sumer

"Considering that it has been a voluntary organization work- ing on a limited budget. it has really done a tremendous job." said the rising Liberal newcom- er to Parliament.

Miss Jewett listed four rights to which every Canadian should be entitled. making up w h a t

"Consumer-5‘ Bill of Rights" to help every consumer every day.

These four rights are:

1. The right to safety, lmply lng protection against the mar- keting of goods which are haz~ “ardous to life or health.

2. The right to be informed, with protection against. fraduo lent or misleading advertising or labelling.

3. The right of choice between a variety of products or servic- es at competitive prices.

4. Therlghthobe beam — with protection of his interests when government policy is be- ing formulated or implemented.

The Law And Luck

Montreal

Why should a motorist. whose j judgment is impaired by drink l be dealt with any the less sever- } ely than if he were driving a lo y comotive. or operating a crane on a construction job? The drunken engineer or crane oper- ator would be di missed at once. Everybody would say he deserved it. But when some mo. torists arrested for impaired driving and brought before the courtlhe public seems to think he should be treated lightly. as some one only showing a human frailty. . , Chief Justice McRuer. of the High Court of Ontario. retiring after 20 years on bench. thinks this light-hearted atti- tude towards the impaired dri- ver is qui mistaken “There' too light a value being placed on human life. he says. “All the fo- cus in criminal auto accident cases before the courts is on the accused. The person whose life is destroyed is viewed very much as a me statistic."

Gazette

Most people have their mom- entary lapses. are thoughtless at times. or have t e‘u‘ attention distracted. But that's quite dif- fex‘ent from driving a dangerous thing like an automobile. when under the influence of liquor.

Chief Justice McRuer believes it is quite wrong to pass judg- ment according to the result of impaired driving. If the mem- bers of the public have managed to get out of the way of an im- paired driver. he may only be fined. or given a brief jail sen- tence. If someone has not been able to get out of his way, and happens to be killed. then a heavy jail sentence may be im- posed.

Unequal sentences of this kind are not based on inequality of guilt. The impaired driver who doesn't kill anybody may only be inch. And why abound the law recognize his good luck. in- cteadoftheriskshetookwlth human life?

The Chicago Trafﬁc Safety Review collected pictures of many of these casualties. In one instance. a car swerved off a well lighted straight stretch of road and hit a pole. killing the driver.

But the real problem is even . more difficult for the Republi- cans. They cannot manufacture anew Barry Goldwater at the convention no matter what cle- ver phrases are used in the plat- form. His whole appeal rests on his claim that he is no trimmer. He speaks his mind no matter what the polls are saving.
