history, it is hardly recognizable as

Its enormous power means that it no longer needs wings to lift it into the’ air; the jet engine does that. It does need@: them for control and for Janding. So that they may interfere as little as possible with its speed, they are comparatively tiny, only seven feet long from root to tip (though the aircraft is 54 feet long), and they are as thin as engineering can make them.

The A and C versions of the Star- fighter are already in service with the United States Air Force. The G

that of providing swift and deadly

support to NATO grourff force. This , New type will not reach final de-

sign and production stage for .an- othet six months, And by licensing arrangement with Lockheed, which builds the airplane, and General Electric, which builds the Starfigh- ter’s engine, both the airplane and the power plant for the Canadian

forces will be built in Canada.

According to the | Gazette, the Starfighter seems the best available for the RCAF’s new rule in Europe. This statement, of course, does not rule out the validity of the Oppos-

ition criticism, ategae holds that the ©

Government used “incredibly bad judgement” in cee it for the role. The Government _ should, through its expests, make every ef- fort to set the publie mind at rest on this score, if it can be done with- out violating security interests.

The Inflation Problem The Cenadian Chamber of Com-

merce has presented the Senate’ fin-'

ance committee with an arresting analysis- of the factors underlying the current problem of inflation. Thus, the estimated federal ‘budget- ary expenditure in the current year

\ stands at $5.6 billions, or about 165 percent higher than the total of $2.1 billons ten years ago. In -the same period, however, the gross national product,.on which government and citizen alike must live, has risen by only 108 percet and consumer spend- ig by 94 percent.

“Another significant fact,” says the Chamber of Commerce brief, “is that the federal Government expen- ditures during the past ten years

corporate ‘profits (165 percent as against 79 percent) although to a - "significant extent the federal Govern- ment relies upon corporate taxes to finance its activities. If’ ‘ provincial- “municipa! expenditures added as

altogether. And we imagine this is not the cure which the Chamber of Commerce would prescribe for a _ government living beyond its-means.

_ OTTAWA REPORT

WHICH COMES FIRST _

_ By Patrick

Visitors may notice a heavily built youngish man sometimes presiding over-the House of Com- mons from the Speaker's Chair. Wearing me traditional long black embroidered coat and white cra- vat, his high forehead, white flecked hair and military bear- ing lend him an impressively pa- trician air, albeit he hobbles to the chair on a man-made leg.

Deputy Speaker Pierre Sevigny is one of the figures to be watch- ed in Ottawa. He seems to be a born leader of men; others cluster around him. He is-~as yet politi- cally untried in Ottawa, since his present job demands neutrality. But fie should rise as a star in “our political sky, where his char- acter, presence and capabilities may achiéve the lustre reserved for the few.

He is the 41 year -old son of Hon. Albert Sevigny, who was

when only 35. :He rose to be Speaker, then to be a Minister in Sir Robert Borden's Cabinet, be- fore being appointed to the Que- | bec Bench where he is now Chief Justice. FINE WAR RECORD

14 years ago; Pierre Sevigny Was one of the youngest licuten- ant colonels and one of the most highly decorated men in the Can- adian Army. Since then his bat- } tles have been political; after two crushing defeats, he last year overthrew a “‘safe’’ Liberal ma- jority to win the differemt Mon- treal surburb of Longueuil.

The recent visit of Queen Eliz- abeth to, Montreal afforded an unusual—hut—impressive—sight; we saw a “fruit salad’’ of rich and rare, decorations upon the breast of that man whom we normally see clad in a ‘“‘monkey suit’ luguriously calling ‘“‘Orrr- derrr” to unruly back-benchers in the Commons.

In August 1944. he gave the more stirring order “Charge” to the gallant remnant of allied sol- diers entirely _ surrounded - by teeming Nazis, and himself ‘led the attack to success and safety.

So. down to 70 men, no ammunition, and only one officer, that gallant remnant was led to a bayonet charge by Sevigay.
