Second Thoughts

External Affairs Minister Pearson I3. is improving in his comments on the Suez crisis. Last week he had an opportunity of addressing an influ- ential American audience at Harri- man, New York. and he took the occasion to emphasize the absolute ” ” need of co-operation and unity within the United Nations by the Western ' powers. He reminded his audience I that United States had received this I co-operation when it intervened in '? Korea in i950, and that the result-

,.r. -2 in.-.

ling prompt ratification by the United Nations was of decisive importance. ”It might have been expected,"

.- Mr. Pearson added, "that before any V decision was taken in Washington I there would have been a thorough 5 exchange or views between the U.S. and its friends . . . or at least be- tween their representatives at the t I, United Nations. But this was not done.'.' There was no public indication ; of disunity in the matter, "but that was because the other countries 7 agreed to maintain the common , . inbnt at the United Nations in the : l face of a particular United States 7": initiative about which they had not

i ' Ill really been consulted in any effective way.”

I Why then, it may be asked, all

I l the indignation expressed at Wash-

lngton and Ottawa because Britain took the same course in the Suez

case? Mr. Pearson didnlt say, but I , perhaps he was giving it some un- ' ' comfortable second thoughts. So "too,

ill we hope, were his hearers.

, It is a matter of common know- ., l I ledge that one reason why President , I " I Eisenhower and State Secretary Dul-

I ; .5 les took such a stern attitude to- - 5 wards armed intervention in Egypt

Ed was that they wanted to impress 3, upon the Arab world the deep and ' loving interest the United States has - in its general welfare. They knew, or hoped. that in due course the dif- - ferences with their European allies

I, would be ironed out, but they had ., serious doubts that once the Arabs had turned to Moscow for sympathy and support they would never again turn back to Washington. So, acting on the theory that it is quite all right to turn against one's friends if 1. there is anything to be gained for oneself, they joined the Russians in calling the British and French "ag- gressors" and Russia's Egyptian stooges "innocent victims."

The plan did not work. Their friends for a day, the Russians, an so happy at the course events have taken that they are talking openly - bout American "treachery" to their . the infcrenos being that the ' erlcans will not hesitate to sell the Egyptians down the Sun when the proper time comes, just as they did not hesitate to turn against the British and French for a moment of temporary gain in prestige. Nor is that all. They have apparently slic- ceeded ln convincing the Egyptians that the United States is the real vimnn, its objective being the com- piste subjugation of the Arab world to the "imperialists."

Meanwhile, the Russians have

If be neutral within six months from the time he left he will receive pay- ments for the months in which he left and returned and for a period of three months of absence in any calendar year. If he is absent longer than six months he is entitled on his return only to payments for the months of leaving and returning. These are the regulations and so long a they are in force pensioners should be under no misunderstand- ing concerning them. There is, how- ever, little to be said for them, and there is much to be said for repeal- ing them. After all, an old age pen-I sion, like any other pension, is not a handout from the Government to the individual but a payment for services rendered. Not a very liberal payment, to be sure, but a payment just the same. This being so, it would be only reasonable to give the re- cipient the right to spend it at his discretion whether in Canada or in some other country. No doubt. the vast majority of pensioners will re- main in Canada by preference, but those who for reasons of health, or for any other reason, would like to live abroad ought not to be obliged to surrender their earned pensions in order to exercise that privilege.

A Madman In His Cups

On two nights in succession West- ern diplomats walked out of official receptions in Moscow after Nikita Khrushchev, the head of Russian Communism and, for the time being at least, the nation's supreme ruler, went into violent denunciation of the Western powers.

The question that will bother a great many persons is: Why do Western representatives continue to attend these Moscow banquets des- pite their repeated experiences with Soviet insults in general and Khrush- chev's boorish manners in particu- lar? Surely diplomatic usage does not require them to go to these vodka-ridden festivities every now and again so that the Russians can hurl invective at them in public? If it does, then it is time it were re- vised to contend with savage meth- ods in diplomacy devised by Kremlin officials.

Here is another thought worth pondering in the matter of the latest Khrushchevian outburst. It is gen- erally assumed-at least it has been

not start a world war because to do so would be. among other things, an act of national suicide. Just how

valid is that assumption in view of Khrushchcv's violent tantrums when under the influence of liquor, in con- dition to which, according to an in- creasing accumulation of evidence, he succumbs frequently,'especlal1y at diplomatic receptions and the like?

Who knows what he might do or what button he might push, even the button that would release atomic fury? Evidently. there is no one to stop him from doing anything that a combination of recklessness and vodka might suggest. Premier Bul- ganin and the others having shown themselves to be powerless to curtail his violence when the diplomats get together for an evening.

EDITORIAL NOTES

North Koreans are accusing the South Koreans of planning an in- vasion of their side of the border, while the South Koreans are saying that the Northern Communists can be expected to start trouble any day now. That part of the world has been fairly quiet for some time. It will be strange if one side or the other doesn't soon go on the rampage.

Near, Middle & Far- East

National Geographic ssclnv

The three Easts - Near, Mid- dle, and Far -- where are they? What does each include?

Because they serve to break the vast Orient Into handy sections. the three designations are much used. Because they lack any broad official status, however. they re- main vague and their boundaries are moved around by both writ- ers and travelers.

The National Geographic Socio- ty. dealing in terms of logical geo- graphical divisions. divides the three Easls as follows:

NEAR EAST: Turkey, Cypnls. Syria. lgzbanon. Israel, Jordan, E- gypt, Iraq, Iran. and the count- ries of the Arabian Peninsula.

MIDDLE EAST: India, Pakis- tan. Afghanistan. Nepal, Bhutan, Sikkim, and Ceylon.

FAR EAST: China. Mongolian Republic, Korea. Japan. the Phil- ippines, lndochlna. Thailand (Sl- aml, Burma, Malaya, and indo-

nesia. NEAR EAST RANGE IS WIDE

The Society's IIst of Near East countries corresponds closely to the State Department's grouping as rcprcscnted by its Office of Near Eastern Affairs and Office of Greek, Turkish. and Iranian Af- fairs. Greece and the Sudan. with- in the scope of these two offices. are not part of the Society's Near East. grouping.

In British usage. tho Balkan States of southeastern Europe of- ten have been tabbed as part of the Near East, but American practice Is to align them geographically with the West.

By common ent, authorities on the Orient keep south of Bus- sia in defining Middle East and Near East. With this and the State Department's official Far East in mind. National Geographic Socie- ty cartographers have defined their geographically logical Middle

East. MIDDLE EAST NEW

The Department of Stale has a Bureau of Near Eastern. South As- ian. and African Affairs. It thus avoids the term Middle East, and any precise definition of what com- prises the Near East. Within this

Bureau. however. the Office of

South Asian Afflsrs deals only with the countries that sompose the So- ciety's Middle East. above.

Prior to World War II, "Middle East" quite commonly described the region of the Indian subcon- tinent. although the designation was often made to reach westward to embrace Iran and the Arabian Peninsula. Newest of the three Easts. Middle East started as a generalization to describe the reaches of souther Asia between Near East and Far East.

World War Ii. however. great- ly complicated the meaning of this term by bringing to tha forefront the spreading British Middle East Command. The Commnnd's mili- tary province expanded westward from as far west as Bengssi and Tripoli were labeled Middle East even by American newspapers. FAR EAST OLD

The tern Far East dates almost from Columbus's time. At first, it described the coasts and islands cast of Singapore visited by ven- turesome navigators who reached the Pacific by rounding Africa's souther tip and crossing the In- dian Ocean.

These coasts and Islands were Far East from a Europe that con- sidered itself the center of the world. To west coast Americans they are near west as well as Far East.

Some writers have restricted the Far East to China. Korea. and Ja- pan. Others expand the term to include virtually all Asia east of Afghanistan.
