New Senate lnquiry

Before Parliament adiollrned. a glrong bipartisan committee was umblilheli in the Senate to examine the problems involved in promoting the welfare of aged and aging per- lons in Canada, Among the specific m of study mentioned by the pm. moter, Senator Croll. were employ- ment, health care, pensions, leisure slid housing.

The Serials in I'N‘l‘lll years has hunched otb er ll<eilll studies of melon-l problems. Two notable in- vestigations, which led indirectly to important legislation, were those into “motion and into manpower and employment. In its new inquiry it will like account of social measures in other worm-lea, notably the United later. the United Kingdom and the Willvian nations.

In 1921, for example. the propor- tion over 65 in this country was only 4.8: in 1951. it had risen to 6.7 and in 1961 to 7.7. It is very much higher in Manitoba than in Quebec and New- foundland—and highest in Prince Edward Island and British Columbia. According to the most recent tables, the total number of persons 65 and over in Canada is nearly 1,400,000. This is approximately the population

‘ of the province of Alberta.

The hearings of this committee will thus he of direct concern to a very large segment of our people, One thing they shollld do. certainly. is dispel the assumption that human beings become ohsolescent with ad- vancing years and the feeling among retired people themselves that they

The Pesky Perch

The Canadian mes reports the activities of a voracious perch which has Vancouver's public aquarium of» ficials ill a tlll‘dfldah‘ The perch was caught ill a beach seine a low months ago. and was put into a tank with mllch larger fish. including a dog- fish shark and a ling (ind. although it was feared he might be eaten. As things turned out, the cod is nurs- ing wounds and the shark is ill dan- gar of being ilihliled tn deatll. 'l‘lle pearcl'i w his gill slits to breathe and then moves in for a choice bit of the gills. And he’s got nearly all the skin nih- bled off the cod.

It just goes to show that it‘s ug— greasiveneos that counts. The perch in this case is four inches long, the shark three feet long and the coil four feet long. Ry all reckoning the pemh’s survival chances were next. to nothing. espet'iallr if he started getting nastl' and annoying his hig- gev tank-mates. Rut the perch didn't know that. or care. He just went

until the shark opens ‘

ahead as if tbs tank belonged to ‘

him. and the other inmates were put there for his nourishment.

Officials claim they are ill the same difficulty as the pel'ch'a victims —they can’t catch him. He's not, only I “terribly aggre Ve little fish.” but a frustratingly nimble one as well.

There‘s a moral to this little story somewhere. but we just can’t put our finger on it, Perhaps it has some- thing to do with keeping a stiff up. per lip. putting one"): host fool M Ward. and that kind of thing. Pe haps wa could link it up, it we tried, with the political moral the late Pl‘eln- icr Lea used to preach about the wheel that does the squeaking lleillg the one that gets the grease. But, from the point of view of everyone except the perch. it must be confess- ed that it would lie. profitich to hold this pesky little creature up for emulation on any count. The sooner his associates hesiir themselves and make an end of him the hotter.

Peaceful co—ex . tence, even in an aquarium. can’t he carried on by turning the other cheek.

EDITORIAL NOTES

A gratifying indiuation of the progress made in the construction a! the Fathers of Confederation Mem- orial Ruilriilllr is the announcement that Prime Minister Pearson will lay the cornerstone on August 26.

Just 75 years ago. Dr. John Dun- lop. a Relfast veterinary surgeon. filed a patent application for o pneu- matic tin. Henry Ford said a few yes/rs later this was the invention that made the whole automobile industry possible.
