Mr. Adams observed that ”undnubt- pcllv the unit: race is going to hank tngctlirv in unrld affairs" NOW. (ll course. if the statement had gone no further than the television audi- mco, no great harm would have been done. But since, as everyone km...-, any um-ii spoken publicly by e prominent llnited States official is gent around the world within a mat- tpr of minutes, one can easily imagine the critical rcsponse this p,-.1;-tjr-ular mirrl would receive all over the continents of Asia and Africa. Taken tits.-311,, Mr. Adams' stale- mqnf unuld imply that all members of the white race. including the Rus- sians (who certainly wouldn't want to he called anything but white) new in conspiracy against the black. brgwn and yellow races. But. of eoune, what Mr. Adams really meant was that the English-speaking peoples and their European frie.nds--- Germans. French. Italian. and so on--would hang together: and that makes the observation even more unwise. To Indians. Chinese and black Africans this "banging to- gether” means the same. thing as "conspiring against" other races. This is the very thing they are afraid of. and the very thing that the Rus- sian: are divining in the ears of Asiatic: and Africans every hour on the hour. This fear is reflected in the long and dreary speeches made in the l'.N. General Assembly these days by l'Pftl'PSPfll,HtlVPS of the Asian- Africari bloc. We in the West know that the fear is unfounded. Apart from the moral consideration in- volved. uliat on earth would the white-West have to gain by trying to subjugata the rest of the world? But that does not help matter: any. The point is that hundreds of mil- lions of people scattered throughout Asia and Africa believe the fear is justified. Long before now, we may be litre, Mr. Adamal remark has been ritnd as proof of it.
Radar Sees All some car drivers are disturbed about radar "speed traps." They take the view that such It method of dis- couraging reckless driving is in little on the shady side. simply because it works silently and without per- mitting on the spot excuses which often try the patience and courtesy of traffic officers. What these critics seem to forget is that highway safety these days is a pretty difficult thing to insure. even when every available device is brought to its aid. Statistics show that radar prevents a great many accidents from time to time. and certainly it is an benevolent to thc i-peeder an to his potential vic- tims. in any event. complaining drivers may as well get used to radar, for it has come to stay on the highways. Moreover, it cannot be misled or imposed upon. A report from an American safety organization proves this point beyond question. It says that now and again all aorta of anti- iauar tricks are 'brought into use.
High Time Is is good to note that at! least one prominent Canadian politician has stood up for Britain and France in the action they were compelled to take by force of circumstances in the Suez Canal area after the United Nations had shown clearly its ln'- ability or unwillingness to deal with the i't'lsls that had arisen. We refer to Mr. Donald Fleming's statement that instant police action was neces- sary and fully justified. Equally graitfxim: it-ac Mr. Fleming's obser- vation that this country should not join the l'nited States in "delivering moral Judgments on Britain and Fr:-iii:-c." This 1! very much IWPNPP than the attitude leading Govern- ment official-: adopted in an obvious uish to do nothing to offend the sensibilities of the American Shite licpartniciit on the etc of an elec- tion it is in he hoped that Mr. Flem- ing's vieus will be aired in Parlia- ment u hen it meets to consider the lpiterl Xatiori: police force proposal. tlcanivhile. in the ll.N-.qPl'lPllEll Assembly only Australia and New 7.ealallt'l have bad the courage or the giintlulll--WhiCl1DxPl' is applicable - In rlnlciid the Rritisli and Freiicli a'.:-uuut cliarges of aggression against an innocent victim, Egypt. Speaker after speaker referred to the two countries as ”aggressors." some of thcni ill a very offensive manner. Although the American and (Tana- dian representatives did not actually use the word itself. neither of them went out of his nay to repudiate it. Rut the Atistraiiari and New Zea- land delegates did and without apologizing for their views. "I resent the insult to the llnited Kingdom and Fraiit-e." said ltr. Walker of Ali:-"frail:-i; and Sir Leslie Munroe of New Zealand spoke in similar vein. Millions of Canadians will applaud lhcm for their stand, no matter the official t'aiiarii;iii (Govern- ment vieus may be in the matter.
