Looks Good, Anyway

The recent annual report of the Governor of the Bank of “Canada showed that. for the calendar year 1964, the federal government had a. budgetary deficit of $153 million—

a national accounts basis—the basis

_ calculated on the usual basis. Buton . the future.

Mr. Gordon.is said_to have introduc-

ed into the budgetary report last year for the first time—the calendar year produced a surplus of 3339 mil-

of .$278 million. It was expected that the figures for the fiscal year ending. March 31 would not be greatly differ- ent from.the Bank of Canada’s esti- mate. for. the calendar year. There might even be a surplus (on a-national saccount basis)-of between $350 mil-

’ lion and $400 million.

This hasn't happened, but an 87

What. seems to be beyond doubt fs that there has been a marked re-

_ duction, in the deficit during the past

year, indicating that the federal gay- ernment’s taxing and borrowing drained off about $600 million more from the nation’s savings in 1964 than it did in 1963.

OTTAWA REPORT By

Patrick Nicholson

Water Shortaage Poses Serious Problem

ment is breaking a Treaty. .J{,' 1952 a subsequent Nobel Peace

Tt is. paradoxical that this richly endowed land could suf- fer a shortage of water. Never- theless this is becoming an ac-

-ute problem in the rich indus-

trial heart of Ontario and in its nearby playground, despité.our | abundant natural supply excell- | ed by no other country. i

- The most urgent symptom of

this water shortage is the falling

levels of the Great—Lakes and

St. Lawrence Seaway system,

which in many places are at or | near the ‘lowest levels ever re-

corded. At Toronto Harbour, the

low water level typifies the | problem which is costing ship- | pers a lot of money through | their need to underload ships so: | that they can sail the shallowed channels. Ss

The cause for this disaster, which is wrecking the commer- cial and pleasure uses of’ the

reat Lakes and threstening our farmlands through the fall- en water table, is twofold. Of- laid on the shortage of precipMation in rain | and snow, which over the past three years has totalled four in- ches below. average around Lake Superior, and from eight fo 12 inches over the southern | portion of the Great Lakes | drainage basin.

The perhaps overriding but officially ignored reason has been ferretted out by the hard- | working Liberal MP from Tor- | onto, Ralph Cowan.

PRIORITIES REVERSED. a Mr. Cowan has visited’ all parts of the man-made Seaway, | making spot checks at some locks as’ often as six times. He has gathered information from experts; most important, he has | researched back more than half a century through interna- tional treaties, government or-

ders and official records.

Hon. Arthur Laing, the har- trassed Minister of Resources, has been besieged By ‘protests about a situation whose origins long predate his tenure of of- fice. He now states that ‘‘the important

most changes ~ to

| Great Lakes. levels have been

brought about by engineering works, diversions, dredging and the operation of control stric- tures.” ;

In effect, Mr. Cowan says, the | Gréat Lakes are being victimiz-

ed to preserve the depth of wat- | er in Montreal Harbour. This is |

| illegal, he asserts;

tion has yet succeeded in solving.—

But the West Germans are working hard on it, and are talking of a solu- tion which is at least imaginative. The plan is to establish a network of pipe lines leading to the sea, ac-

, cording to a writer in The Observer

Nam which was thie aim of the 1954 | Geneva agreement on an Indo-China |

settlement. Mr. Pearson has urged the U.S. to suspend American air raids in .North Viet Nam for a short period to give Hanoi a chance to con- sider negotiations without appearing* to bow under military pressure. This would seem to be “even better” than the offer of financial aid: -And it would have the additional advantage of lessening the misery and slaughter.

“While the offer of massive finan- tial aid is congenial to the magnani-

of London. Industrial wastes, old cars, tires, bottles, even slag and steel mill waste, would be put through a crushing and grinding ma- chine, fed into the pipe line and wash- ed out to seg under water pressure. There is one hitch to this simple scheme. Residents of coastal cities may well object to the dumping of a

torrent of rubbish off shore, with the |

inévitable washing of dirt and debris ashore.

Another idea is to use the rubbish as fill to reclaim. shoreland from the sea. ition. Shoreland already is under heavy pressure. There are conflict-

By laundering the waste, the nation's. re-refiners— a fairly. new industry—can produce 400 million quarts of lubricants re- puted to be as good or better than the original. .

Since laundered oil has ac- tually been refined three times —first by the original proces- sor; second by the eingine which breaks down some weak- .er hydrocarbons; and third’ by the re-refiner—some sports—and stock-car racers insist upon it. Other users are bus railroads.
