Talent, Used & Unused

There is no way to change it,‘ of course; but it does seem a pity- that under our system of" govern- ment no place of responsibility». can

normally be found for outstanding W of defeated par-

representatives ties. Mr. Coldwell and Mr. Knowles of the CCF are cases in point. Both men were defeated in the re-

cent electionl; which means that

Parliament will be the poorer, no

matter how strong and effective

the dominant Party may turn out

to be.

As a debater Mr. Coldwell had few peers. His sincerity and his’ zeal for the democratic process are ,universally recognized; and there

,is no question but that over the years he exercised a beneficent in- - fluence on the work of Parliament. As for Mr. Knowles; he was re- cognized as the Commons' out-. standing specialist in Parliamentary .procedure. The fact that he - was offered the. Speakership by Prime

-Minister Diefenbaker shortly after

the June 10th election bears testi- mony to his eminence in that par- ticular field. Yet, both men have been «removed from public life by an accident of politics.

Liberal Leader Pearson will, of course, still be in the House and, therefore, in a position to contribute from his great store of experience to thel work of Parliament. Still, his_ main function will be’ that of cri- is important, of course; and it would have been im- portant if he had‘ been the only Liberal elected. But it is not the same thing as active participation in policy making. Any ‘contribution he may be able to make in the field

of international affairs will depend

entirely on Mr. Diefenbaker’s at- titude. Fortunately, the Prime Min- ister is not the type of man that pretends to know the ‘answers to all problems; and he would be the ' first to admit——indeed, he has al- ready admitted it—-that Mr. Pear- son's talent for diplomacy is great.

' Doubtless, from time to time he will

seek Mr. Pearson’s counsel——if not openly, then privately. That will

‘make him not less but more a na-

tional leader in whom all Cana- dians, irrespective of _party labels, can have complete trust.

The Glory Of Science

“I believe that science must firm- ly be included among the liberaliz- ing humanities in any honest‘ as- sessment of modern thought and knowledge.

“The beauty and simplicity of the laws of nature which govern the world in which we find oursel- ves, the fantastic range today of man’s ideas and studies and mea- surements, from ‘the countless galaxies in the distant reaches of outer space beyond the faintest stars of our own Milky Way, down to the structures inside the atomic nucleus-——this is vision enough to

humble the most arrogant. The \p0etlcally beautiful patterns of \modern scientific knowledge bear

fresh witness in a whole new range of thoughts and qualities and dimen- sions to the Psalmist’s ancient cry: “The heavens declare the glory of God and the firmament showeth his handiwork’. . “Lest anyone here has lost Slgh of it, let me tell you that this ‘attitude, all too rarely spoken out in these days of secular support, 15 historically and still today the essential spirit of all scientific study and research. This spirit of wonder and exaltation is the ancient root and the modern strength of an our Western search for new knowledge. “This is the spirit of science, and the content of science is knowledge. Science is not airplanes and missi- les and radars and atomic power, nor is it Salk vaccine or Cancer chemotherapy or anticoagulants for heart patients. These are all technological. developments which have grown out of scientific studies. Science is knowlédge of the natural world about us; it is the systematic ordering and interrelating of the

Kinship In Art

Word from Coventry, England, that city which fared so badly in

Hitler’s air raids, is that a new 900-,

seat theatre has been opened. It is the first theatre to be built by a. municipal authority in Britain since the war.

The first presentation in the new theatre was the premiere of a Brit- ish musical “Half, In Earnest”, an adaptation by Vivian Ellis of Oscar Wilde’s “The Importance of Beinlg Earnest”. Coventry had two theatres before the war. One was destroyed by bombs. The other, a 2,000-seat house built in 1937, survived the on- slaught. _

I The name of the new theatre———and this, we think, is what gives the news

’ item its importance-—-is “The Bel-

grade”. It is an expression of ap-

preciation to Yugoslavia which sent

a gift of timber worth about ‘$17,000 towards reconstruction of the blitzed city. It is something to know that in the development of the arts the Brit- ish people have not permitted politi- cal differences and cold-war bitter- nesses to obscure their appreciation of aid from what might be considered an unlikely source. . ' ll , -Perhaps in course of time this is the sort of thing that will heal the wounds of mankind. Yugoslavia, as everyone knows, is a Commiinist country. There are very few—if any —Communists in Coventry; but evi- dently there are a great many people who realize thelimportance of kin- ship in the world of art between societies of different political and social views.

Tax Reductions ‘Most economists seem to think in ad- dition to heavy spending of Govern- ment funds, should be called into service in the fight against the cur- rent mild recession. They believe, -however, that tax reduction ought to be regarded as a temporary mea-' sure and that as soon as conditions '-I,

‘improve taxes islfould again ‘be in-'

creased to at least their present level. I '

It is all very well for economists to talk that way. They are, interest- ed only in the economic side of the picture.’ l ‘l .

But a Government—any Govern- me'ntl—-has to think in terms of public opinion, however much it may be inclined to heed the econ- omists’ advice. And public opinion,

‘ as a rule, is not inclined to look with

favour on tax increases. ’ Once taxes were reduced, it would be very difficult to persuade the pub- , lie that it would, be wise to increase them—-even if inflation were just around the corner.

As far as our own Federal Gov- ernment is concerned, the emphasis during the election campaign was on public works’ expenditures. It ‘ is likely to adhere to that program and allow taxes to remain at or near their present level.

DOWN TO EARTH WITH A THUD

Prepcirdtion For The Summit

By W.

N. Ewel-

United Kingdom Information Service

It nowseems to be agreed that preparat/ion for the‘ Summit Con- ference ’shall be both “through diplomatic channels" and by, at some stage, a meeting of Foreign Ministers. And that being so, one had hoped.that these preparations would go quietly forward with endeavour on both sides to dis- cover and agree on some “area of discussion” at the Summit that would give the maximum chance of ;achieving positive results. Orte had hoped in fact that ther would now be a truce to public controversy, to the “pole- mics” which Mr. Khrushchev himself recently deplored.

But despite Mr. Khrushchev, the Soviet Government now seems to think that from its point of ‘ew the correct preparation shoud include continued public pronouncements both on prelim- inary steps and on thesubstance of the s bjects which it would like to di cuss at the Summit. U.N. SHOULD APPROVE

Under charter the United Na- tions is charged with the duty of "formulating plans for the

2 establishment of a system for the

regulation of armaments"; And for the past 12 years all work on disarmament -had been done. ‘within _the framework” of’ the U.N. It seems therefore desir- able-even " esscntial——that any disarmament negotiation outside the U.N. should have the appro- val of U.N.

A suggestion for a meeting of the Security Council——pure1y pro- cedural—which would give that approval and, as it were, “bless; ing” of the United Nations to any “Summit” attempt to break the disarmament deadlock was made to the Soviet Government quietly and confidentially through “diplomatic channels”. It was hoped and expected that a reply, whether favourable or unfarour- able, would be made in the same way. It was the first def- inite move towards preparation without publlc controversy.

But the Soviet Government seemed. not to want this. For its reaction was to issue a pub lic statement by its Foreign Office which both misrepre- sented and denounced the sug- gestion. It was quite inaccura- tely described as a plan to “re- fer the entire disarmament problem to the Security Coun- cil”. It was denounced as “an attempt to distract public opin- ion from measures towards convocation of a. top level- meeting."

UNLIKELY CONDITION

That was in itself disturb- ing. But there was more to come. Two days later at a Moscow Foreign Office press conference the Soviet Govern- ment publicly announced it would only be prepared to agree to President Eisenhower's proposal for the prohibition of the use of outer space for military purposes on condi- tions. And one of these con- ditions was “the elimination of foreign military bases from the territory of other States, -first and -foremost from Eur- ope, the-Middle East and North- Africa”.

Now as regards Europe that means, in fact, the withdrawal of all American . and British ground and air forces: in other words complete liquidation. of the whole N.A.T.O. defensive system in Western Europe.

I am not concerned at the moment- to discuss that pro- posal; except to note that it is one which N.A.T.O. powers have consistently, firmly and naturally declined even to con- sider as a possible matter for negotiation.

My point is that just at this moment, when one had been hoping for a truce to polemics in order to allow quiet pre- paration for the Summit Meet-

,ing, the Soviet Government

, Russia's Bombshell

~. .» The Globe and Mail. Toronto -

The announcementfrom Mos- cow that tests of nuclear weapons are being ‘suspended, unilaterally, in the Soviet Union, represents another major Russian propagan- da victory over the~United States.

The announcement was very shrewdly timed. For many months anxiety has been growing around the world over the test explosions regularly set off by the U.S., the Soviet Union and, to a lesser extent, Britain. Quite apart from the threat of war which these experiments symbo- lize, there is the danger that rad- ioactive materials may accumu- late to such an extent in air, wa- ter and soil as to cause wide- spread sickness and death and perhaps racial degeneration.

Russia and the United States have negotiated at length with- out being able to reach a mutu- ally satisfactory agreement to end the tests. The delay has bred public impatience and resetment, principally directed against Washington. Now the Soviet Go- vernment can take the credit for breaking the deadlock by unilat- eral action. The Moscow state- ment also coincided -—— not by accident, we may be sure — with three other developments:

(1) The slow, but probably in- evitable, approach of a summit meeting, again at the initiative of the Russians.

(2) The U.S. announcement of a new series of hydrogen bomb tests, scheduled to take place in the Marshall Islands this sum- mer

T3) The publication of estimates by a group of American and Ja- panese scientists that fallout from test explosions to date may cause premature death for per- haps l.000,000 persons, and that if they go on. the danger point for the whole human race may be reached in a period of fifteen or l\\cn1y years.

'l‘haul\'s to this careful] liming, .

The Russian rcnuuciatiou will have maximum effect. The New York Times — a faithful suppor- ter of the Eisenhower Adminis-

tration’s foreign policy -—— sadly admits that Moscow's action may be “as powerful a weapon in the field of propaganda as the H-bomb in thefield of -warfare.” It goes on to point out‘:

“If Russia says-she is stopping such tests and we conceded that we are going ahead with them there will be many millions of ignorant and wistful persons in the world who will be persuad- ed that the Russians are honest lovers of peace and that the atom- ic danger to mankind comes from the United States.”

The conclusions of these mil- lions are not entirely fair. The U.S. has tried ever since 1946 to secure a general ban on the man- ufacture of atomic weapons, sup- ported by an international in-

had elected to issue a mani- festo which ls not only highly controversial in itself but is announcing n advance the at- titude which it intends to take at that meeting on very portant issues.

SAME CONTENT

And a new letter from Mr. Bulganin to Mr. Macmillan, though naturally more tem- iperate in tone, does precisely the same thing. In particular it insists that "elimination of ,foreign bases on territories of .other nations” in other words the liquidation of the N.A.T.O. defence system must be a condition for any agreement to “can the use of outer space for military pur- poses”.

It all creates an uneasy feeling that the Soviet Govern- ment has it in mind that the Summit Meeting shall be pre- ceded by a ‘series of public statements and public debates on issues expected to be con- sidered there. If that were to happen both sides would go to the “Summit” publicly com- mitted to positions from which any withdrawal would be very difficult. It would mean that there would ‘be little or no hope of serious negotiation and a very real danger that the Summit Meeting itself would be as polemical as its prelude.

There is, of course, still time for a truce to public contro- versy, which is to my mind sine qua non for a successful issue. N.A.T.O. powers are certainly all for such a truce. They want the necessary work of preparation to be as quiet- and constructive as _ One still hopes that the Soviet Union will take the same view, that Mr. Khrushchev meant what .he said when, in his Minsk speech, he urged ces- sation of “polemiics”. But these Moscow manifestoes, I am afraid, chill one’s hopes.

But its proposals have been so rigid, legalstic, complex and un- imaginative that they have made little impression on world opin- ion. Once again the adversary has been left with the initiative, and he has exploited it brilliant ly with a simple, dramatic ac- tic : whch everyone can under- stand -

The State Department is now suggesting, rather hopefully, that the Soviet announcement may be a fake; that Russian scientists may continue to experiment se- cretly with atomic and hydrogen bombs. The consensus of scient- ists appears to be, however, that explosions of large unclear wea- pons, at least, can'be detected by the devices now in use, so that deception of this kind would be extremely difficult. It is quite possible that Mr. Khrushchev and his associates have gathered most of the data they think they need, and that they are n-ow giv- ing priority to the battle for men’s minds.

Old Fort

National Geographic Society

Minnesota’s Fort Snelling, an old frontier post that now echoes the blast of jet planes, is to be- come a shrine to its six-shooter days.

With the State’s 100th birhtday clue in May, its Centennial Com- mission has authorized recon- struction and restoration of the fortress buildings on the out- skirts of the Twin Cities, Minnea- polis and St. Paul.

The fort’s site, on a high bluff commanding the junction of the Mississippi and Minnesota Riv- ers, was selected in 1805 by Lieu- tenant Zebulon M. Pike, the Na- tional Geographic Society recalls. His orders were to pacify the In- dians, and obtain strategic mili- tary and trading posts.

The Fort Snelling tract includ- ed a nine—mile stretch along the Missippi. Lieutenant Pike paid an uninflated price of $200. 60 gal-

lons of whiskey, and some ln(1ian- ,

p1'i'/.cd trinkets. The fo1‘t's establishment was delayed, ho\\‘eve1', until 1819,

< when a small force of infantry

under Colonel Henry Leaven-

Snelling

\

worth set up a camp of stockad- ed log cabins near the Minne- sota River outlet.

A permanent post was started across the river the following year and called Fort St. Anthony after near-by waterfalls. These falls were particularly useful in powering both a sawmill to cut construction lumber and a flour mill to help feed the garrison.

The fort-diamond - shaped with round and octagonal towers —- was completed under command of Colonel Josiah Snelling in 1825. On the recommendation of the first inspection officer, General Winfield Scott, of Mexican War fame, the fort was renamed in Snelling’s honor.

As an Indian agency and guar- dian of the peace, Fort Snelling soon became the center of a vig- orous frontier life. Through it pas- sed the early trappers and fur- traders, explorers and missionar ics. lt welcomed sctllcrs with loud and tools. and sheltered them when Indians went on the Warpath.

Hard To Treat. In Children

By Herman N. Bundesen, M.D.

Diabetes in children is often more difficult to treat than it is in the middle-aged or elterly. This is because it presents spec- ial therapeutic problems which can make things rather difficult for both the doctor and the, pat- lent.

For one thing, most diabetic children are undernourished when the disease is discovered. Diabetes usually strikes children rather abruptly, and the syr..p- toms are generally more severe than in adult cases. DANGEROUS INFECTIONS

Dangerous infections 0 c c_lI 1' more readily in young diabetics. Their nutritional needs are great- er than those of adult patients, and these needs change constant- ly.

That’s why many physicians re- commend that a child with dia- betes be hospitalized during the time when both he and his par- ents are being indoctrinavted in the changes which must be made in his life and his care in gener- al. .. SAME GENERAL DIET

Many young diabetics can get along pretty well on the same general diet that non - diabetic youngsters eat.

Such a diet should provide e- nough calories to meet growth andtacutivity needs of the indivi- dual child. It should also be rich in protective foods " and it should have a ‘fairly high protein con- tent. ’

Sugar, and all foods contain- ing sugar, of course, should be elimin-abed from the diet.

I'm not going ‘to suggest a menu because each child re- quires an individualized diet. You can’t base food require- ments o age and sex alone; you must consider the build of the youngster, his rate of grow“1 and his physical activites.

As for insulin, many youngsters are sensitive to it, yet most dia- betic children require more tlha7n one injection in day; Unmodified insulin at the’ rate of 0.5 to 1.5

, units per pound of body weight is ‘ generally given three to four

times a day during the early srag- es of the disease. Gradually the dosage is decreased. GOOD LIVING HABITS — -—— A young diabetic must have good living habits and he must establish them during the early stages of the disease. He must eat good, healthful food in the proper amounts at regular times; he must follow his dootor’s ad- vice about physical activities. One more important point: A young diabetic must avoid emo- tioual crises whenever possible. He must learn to adjust him- self to a relatively quiet, peace- ful way of life. QUESTION AND ANSWER. D.T.: I am 70 years old and have a severe rupture. What do you recommend as a cure? Answer: A rupture of hernia usually can be treated adequate- ly by surgery. Even at your age, successful operations are per- formed with little risk. However, if there is some phy- sical impairment that would make an operation risky, the hernia might be helped by injection treatments.

was born at this post. Its doctor answered neighborhood calls. The fort’s band and uniforms lent military tone to parades and par- ties of the near-bycommunities. The young territorial government used its jails to house civilian lawbreakers.

Though the troops were with- drawn in 1855 as the frontier mov- ed west. Fort Snelling was re- opened in 1861, and served through four wars. ,

During the Civil War, Minne- sota’s volunteers trained there. Expanded and adapted to meet each new emergency, the fort prepared men for the Spanish American and World Wars.

Meantime, as buildings and fa- cilties grew, the post’s once ex. tensive acreage was reduced by sale and inteirgovernment and state transfer of property, In 1946, the remaining, area was turned .over to the Veterans Ad- ministration.

Today, in addition to a veter- ans hospital, the old Fort Snell- ing tract is also occupied by a national cemetery, an Air Force let-alert station, an Army aim- training base, a Bureau of Mines office, and the Minneapolis —st_ Paul municipal airport.

The relatively small site set a- side for the historic memorial in- cludes portions of the original fort’s towers and remains of its stone walls.
