Speaking at the opening session yesterday. UN. Secretary General U Thant stressed the nceds of the have-not countries for new patterns of world trade. planning. He point. edly reminded the Western powers that “the Communist. world should be mlkywed in play a larger role in the international market-place." and depored the failurs to approach the problem of international economy in a broad spirit.

Ironically. the only major power not invited to send a. dclcgation to this ‘oonference was Communist China—since if. is a member of neither the United Nations nor any of its specialized agencies. But other governments of the world. from great nations to tiny states such as Monaco.

Seal Slaughter

How long will the slaughter of Greenland seals in the Gulf of St. Lawrence be regarded as legitimate enterprise? The industry. if you can call it that. has received a good deal of publicity this winter chiefly in connection with the hardships incurred by the hunters. But the whole business. to many people. is a ruthless exploitation of our na- tural resources.

According to the Montreal Ga; zette. it is estimated that these seals will be extinct in about three years, unless measures are taken to regulate the practice of exter— minating them. Obviously. these regulations cannot be voluntary; they must be made and enforced by the Government.

It has been possible In the past. usually at the last moment. to take protective measures in regard to some important. sea mammals. An International Convention for the Regulation of Whaling was signed in 1946. And for many years. The Gazette recalls. there has been an agreement between Canada. Japan. Russia and the United States to limit the hunting of seals in the North Pacific. It seems time for similar. effectivc measures to be taken to control the hunting of Greenland seals in the St. Lawrence.

EDITORIAL NOTE

"While others hemmed. hawed and hedged." notes the New York H e r a l d Tribune appreciatively. "Canada came forward and took the lead in raising an international force for Cyprus. It demonstrated again the readiness of our neighbor to the north to act at s time of crisis and to serve the good cause of international peace."

CITIZENS’ COMPLAINT

Sir.-— Please permit me the space in your valuable newspa- per to bring to the attention of the citizens of Charlottetown an injustice resulting from the re- ceni civic “nationalization” of the hygiene and garbage collec-

tion business. of which I have 1

been a Victim.

For a number of years I work- ed hard and built. up a faier good garbage collection busi- ness in the City of Charlotte- town. My rates were considered reasonable and I enjoyed the patronage of a good many cus-

‘ lomers.

With the construction of the new Tepec type Incinerator for the disposal of :arbaae and the purchase of newly designed gar- bage collection trucks the City of Charlottetown instituted a system of "free" urbane col- lection. No one should actually accept the word Free Collection as being a fact. You pay for this service thinouzh taxes and if the service costs increase. you r taxes will Increase accordinuly.

The City of were not even consideraic enough to consult mo or oven in- form me that. as a result of their actions. I was to be put out of business. nor did they offer me the slightest compensation for havmg stepped in and taken my business away from me.

Cystic Fibrosis Relatively Now

By Dr. Theodore R. VanDellen Cystic fibrosis imucoviscido- sis) is I relatively new disease but it ll surprising how much we know about it. Most victims are children who inherit a cue- mical defect which c a u s e s abnormal secretions of sweat and mucus. Perspiration is ex cessively salty and mucus from c affected organs is so thick and sticky, it obstructs the open~ logs of various passageways. The parents may have no ma- nifestations of the disease but they carry the gene: that are responsible. In the past. most little ones died within seven years after the disease was diagnosed. The outlook has
