Propaganda In Space The acliievement of the Soviet 'Union’s two newest astronauts has dwarfed all previous space flights Ind set I new milestone in the con- quest of space. The world salutes these daring pionee rs, and the scientists and technicians resP01l° Iible for their performance. But it is not merely in the interests of science that these amazing efforts have been put forth. If we 2'" to lludse by Drevious Soviet D€1'f"1'm‘ Inces, propaganda plays a large part in Soviet space Planning. just as it has done in nuclear test explos- ions to gain military supremacy- Soma Western observers are pre- dicting that this week's record- breaking ﬂights may be aimed at setting the stage f0!’ 3 new swiet move on Berlin, timed to follow the Communist celebrations of the erect-

ion of the Berlin wall a. year ago.

At that time, it will be recalled, Major Titov had just made his im- pressive 17-orbit flight; and Soviet propaganda used that flight to ham- mer home the theme that the Soviets had rocket superiority over the United States and could Pmlect East Germany in the event of mili- tary reaction.

The main theme spread after the first Sputnik launching in Octo- ber, 1957, was the alleged superior- ity of socialism over Capitalism- Then at the beginning of 1959, when it was desired to set the stage fill‘ the visit of Soviet First Deputy Premier Mikoyan to the United States, the first Soviet satellite was placed in orbit about the sun, pro- viding a vivid demonstration of the power at the comm and of MI‘- Mikoyan's country.

In September of the same year, Premier Khrushchev’s first visit to the United States was immediately preceded by the landing of a Soviet rocket on the moon. And shortly after he had left the country, the Soviet Union sent 9. rocket equipped with I camera round the moon, thus obtaining the first——and to date the only—picture ever taken of the sido of the moon that is never visible from earth.

It will be recalled, too, that the Soviets employed their first two

To trace the line back from John Fitzgerald Kennedy, who succeeded General Eisenhower as President of the United States, might be dif- ficult but not impossible. There is, Is The Times correspondent notes,’ I strong connection between the clans in the southwest of Scotland and families in Ireland, where the President counts his ancestors. His- torians maintain that theso Scots came originally from Ireland and, in the generations that followed,” waves of them went back.

As for the present head of the clan, the Marquess of Ailsa, he has not given up his claim to Culzean Castle altogether,’ at least not sentimentally. He was in front of the castle. together with the Earl of Wem_vss and March. chairman )f the National Trust for Scotland, to greet President Eisenhower when

he visited Culzean in September,-

1959. It was the last time Eisen- hower stayed there, and then for only I week-end, for he was in the midst of a busy diplomatic tour.

This time he will have more leis- ure to enjoy the castle’s magnificent attractions. perched as it is on the edge of a cliff overlooking an exten- sive forest on one side-and the lovely‘ sweep of the Firth of Clyde on the other. There are 560 acres of grounds dotted with ponds, lodges and cot- tages. The deer park has been de- pleted of its stock, but the swan lake still has swans and the aviaries are filled. There is even a ghost.

Within the view of the General’s apartment is P hill called Piper’: Brae, said to be haunted by 8. piper who “m a r c h e s underground and plays a tune on the eve of every w e d din g in the Kennedy clan.” And if Ike wants more reminders of the name he will find directly under his apartment I room full of Kennedy clan relics.

Place For Research

Some day, perhaps, we shall realize that the amount of research, which rightfully goes towards such scourges as poliomyelitis, heart ail- ments, c a n c er, arthritis and dia- betes should also be applied to_hait highway fatalities. But that day doesn’t seem to be close It hand.

The Dominion Automobile As- soeiation has been delving into this and finds that while polio, for in- stance, has $40,000 spent in research for every death from this disease, the most that is spent for research into traffic fatalities is $3 per fatality. This is not the cost of in- vestigation work in connection with fatalities; rather. it is the research to prevent accidents from happen- ing. On the airlines the rate of study is even greater than for polio. The current average is one death for every 500 million passenger miles of air travel. Yet preventive research accounts for an expenditure of $500,000 for each aviation death.

In Canada, Saskatchewan, which has the lowest automobile fatality rate of one death for every 20 mil- lion miles, has I rate still 25 times greater than the rate for aviation. Yet, across Canada less than one cent of every motor vehicle registra- tion fee goes to preventive research.

With the completion of our fine trans-Canada highway system, it is time we took I second look at this challenge of curbin-g traffic deuthl by the means which, in the case of other fatalities, has proved so ef- fective Is I deterrent.‘

The Liberals‘ total vote was well short of their record of 2,929,391 votes which they at- tracted from I smaller elector- Ite in the 1949 election. ‘But it just nosed out their H53 total to be the second largest poll they have ever attracted.

poll in But it full more than one million votes :ahort of the 3,911,195 which they ttolalled in 1958, and which remains by far the highest total vote evcr gained by any political party in Canadian politics. SMALL PARTIES BOOM

The New Democratic Party won I‘ total of 1,036,056 :ps 1962 saw the first one-million-vote poll ever given to socialism in Canada. The old Co-ope-ratlve Commonwealth I-‘ederatloui at- tained I peak of 822,661 votes in 1945. But that figure represent- ed 16 per cent of the total} votes cast that year: the milliwn-vote poll won by the NDP this year represented only I considerab- ly smaller 11 per cent of the to- lnl votes cast by all electors.

The 19 NDP M.Ps elected this year compare poorly in t o t 31

with the CCI-"s peak of 28 M.Ps ’

elected in that 1945 election. The Social Credit group have even more cause for satisfac- tion in making this I banner year for their party. Their can- dldates together attracted. 896.- 427 votes. more than double their previous best attained in 1957. In that year they elbcted 19 M.PI, which was their best performance prior to this year's election when 30 of their (sandi- dates were elected to Parlia-

meut.

VOTES MAKE SEATS

The relationship between vot- es recelved and seats won of- fers some paradoxes.

This year. the Conservatives won 116 seats in the House Commons. while the Liberals with a slightly. larger total vote won only 100 seats.

Bin on the basis of propor- tional represonlallon, each of those parties would have won only 98 seats. By lhe same exact

rclatlonsliip to the foal votes.g

the NDP would have won 37 in- stead of the 19 seats they now hold: and the Social group would have won 32 seats, slightly more than their actual

30.

The record polls attracted this year by the two smaller parties indicate a weakening of the hold of the two old parties on the electorate. But the prog- ressive slumping of the electoral appeal of independent candidat- es since the war suggests lhat party machines increasingly do- mlnale the eler-tm-al field. When one realises that sums in ex- cess of $5ll.000 are not uncom- monly spent by just one candl- dale, it is ‘easy to appreciate that ‘ . undemocratlcally lourzli for an individualistic lit- tle guy to buck candidates sup- ported by the fund-raisins driv- es of the big party machines.

Perhaps also the Norlh_.Am- erican tendency to conformlsm is spreading over into the field of politics, so that few voters want to supporl a maverick candidate who might have some original theory to fight for in Parliament, but who cannot expect to deliver any patronage to his constituency. Whatever the reason. the votes dedicated to candidates outside the four natlonal parties have steadily dwindled in total. from 582,393 in 1945 to only 14,315 this year.

The federal government has Innouuced that the winter works incentive program will be continued again this year. It appears that this is one pro- gram which will be spared the government's austerity Ixe.

While welcoming the news that the program will continue. there is still room to support criticism from opposition par- ties. The program has failed to really touch seasonal unemploy- ment. and it throws too much the cost for what has been done upon the lower levels of govern-

T h federal government pays ' one- half of the labor costs for ap- proved projects. But the Iver- age labor content _in w l u t I r works is only about 34 per cent. The federal contribution to tho entire project, then. is 17 per cent. The province and the mu- nicipality pay th e remainder: and something more ‘hon

is paid by the municipality.

Few municipalities are in I financial position to bear th i I burden, the opposition claims. As a resulvl. full advauage r f the plan cannot be taken, not can it be expanded. One sug-
