Washington Reaction
US. Defense Secretary M¢Namara’s “+ school buses.
| |
Spesch in” Montreal last “Week con- | “That's "a pretty impressive achiever
tinues to provoke widespread com-
‘ment. According to a~ Washington-
correspondent, not for years has a single address made such a profound impact there. Here was a_man in charge of the nation’s bombs and military manpower striking out with the kind of speech that Washington: is accustomed to hearing -only from a president or a secretary of state. Reaching far beyond purely military matters, Mr. McNamara built his theme. on the «Statement that “a nation can reach the point at which it does not buy “more security: for itself simply by buying more military hard- ware—we are at that point.”
Startling foreign-policy officials . with his bluntnéss, he equated “sec- - urity” not with arms but with “‘de- velopment” in developing countries, |
‘urged more joint gctions-between na-- tions to preserve peace, and advocat- ed.eloser ties with Peking in language indicating considerable disapproval of- current: official policies. Nothing he said, apparently, differed much from what he has been saying privately for months; but this wasn’t a private oc- casion, and he appears to have put himself squarely behind the academic
critics of the State Department’s » China policies by saying that “‘breach- ing the isolation” of Commynist_|
China “reduces the danger-of poten-
tially catastrophic misunderstanding
... ” The United States, he added,
“properly ‘balanced trade relations,
' diplomatic contacts, and in some
cases, even by exchanges of military
__ observers.”
As soon as Mr. McNamara’s words began flashing around the world, spectilation started. Did they herald a change in. the-government’s China policy? Were they directly inspired by President Johnson, and did they
mean-a-dilution-of the influence of |
- Secretary of State Dean Rusk? The answers, of course, can only be speculative. The Montreal_speech is significant, at any rate, of Mr. Mc- Namara’s awareness of the link be- tween economic backwardness and violence—of the growing gap be- tween the “haves” and the ‘have nots” in the world, the peril it poses for the United States and the fact that the most powerful nation in the
free world can-no-longer--hope-to..be—|—
secure just by building up its armed forces. Of his awareness, too, that it ‘must work out ways to let Western Europe share in nuclear weapon plan- ning, work hard for a non-prolifera- tion agreement, and—“‘build-bridges” to the Communist east, “both in Europe and Asia .

Liberals ‘in this election campaign is
that the Tories are not doing-enough
for education. The Tories themselves, in effect, say the same thing, and have announced that with increased grants from Ottawa they propose to do*much
‘more during the coming year. They
propose: among other things, to pay

Tories also claim to have more than tripled‘ the total grants to teachers, from little over_a million dollars in the last year of Liberal rule to over$2,600,000 for |
over $214,000 in capital grants to school boards since 1962, to obtain
ment; but the Liberals, while modest- ly refraining from citing their own “past record, claim it isn’t,nearly good enough. Meanwhile we note that-in New Brurswick a similar argument is going on, though with the roles re- versed.-There the Tory opposition. is denouncing the Liberals for raking in millions of additional dollars in grants from Ottawa, while dumping more and more of the’cost of educa- tion on the municipalities. Specifical- ly it is charged that while th 1960-— the year the Robichaud government ~
share $19,299,013, by 1965—with education-costs continuing to soar— “ the province’s share had actually dropped while the municipalities’ share had .fumped more. .than $10,000,000. s

the strike of 60,000 British merchant navy seaman which has forced the Labor government to declare a state of emergency. It is no business of Canadians, of course, to advise the British how to settle an affair of this - kind. It can only be hoped that every- body concerned, government, union and employers, will yield a little. For when the world’s largest merchant fleet is struck, the whole trading world suffers in some degree:
, As the Vancouver Sun says in this ~ connection, the strike could have a crippling effect on Anglo-Canadian trade. In days or weeks the wheat farmers of Saskatchewan, as well as the lumber .shippers~of British Col- umbia, could be feeling the pinch. For Britain itself the strike could not come at a worse tine.
By the nature of things the mer- chant navy strike’ is a strike against | the state, and the state in this case is | represented by a government which, ordinarily, would-be expected to be a — .defender of union principles. Unfor- | also laid down stringent guidelines forall, sectors of the nation to follow on the road to ecénonfic recovery. Its in- comes policy, carefully thought out, calls for wage increases of not mére than three per~cent-annually..The- seamen’s demand of an equivalent of 17 per cent can-only be regardéd: as a direct challenge to this policy. Public resentment is bound to | mount but a lot.of Britons will not. be ‘disposed to forget that the merchant navy gallantly sustained heavy sacri- ‘fices to serve the nation if wartime:

“OTTAWA REPORT by Patrick Nicholson
Shall We Leave It:To Our Children? -
Pollution is.one..f the great- est problems facing Canada to- day. Yet pollution, like'USA con- trol of our industry, urban rede- velopment, and a national trans-
| Portation policy, is an _ issue |
whose solution we are doing no- thing about. It is a heavy addi- tion to the-legacy of expense and = trouble which we are seeming- ly quite content to leave to our children. tes
The urgency to halt pollution was given strong vocal support | and an amusing. new twist by | Health Minister Allan MacEac- hen-in a recéent- speech:
“One. of the prime objectives of my Department . of National Health -and- Welfare,” he said, | “is to be aware of potentially harmful factors in our daily con- tacts, and to determine the ef- fects of such environmental fac- tors on the health of people.”” He
went on to describe howthreedi- |
visions in his department are | concerned with various aspects | of pollution - of water, of air and through ‘environmental ra- || diation. ; Sif { But in the environmental health | _fealm, there is no problem of greater significance than the con- trol and elimination of pollution of our water, he said: ~~ ‘

Be- cause it would cost money and | hence reduce profits to | . purification ‘apparatus. . “We as a nation - and this ap- | plies to governments as well as | to individuals, groups and cor- porations - havebeen a little | bit too blase about the corrosive consequences of civilization and progress on many of oir natur--| al resources and amenities.
