liiik (lows on Increase

For the second consecutive year Calla- dian milk cow numbers show a sharp in- crease according to a survey just released by the Dominion Bureau of Statistics. The increase as at June 1st, 1953 amounted to 178,000 or 6 per cent over the same date '3. year earlier. bringing the total to 3.146,-i 200 or just over 1 dairy cow for every five men, women and -children in Canada. The dairy heifer and calf populations also showed gains over last year of 2 per cent: and 6 per ccnt respectively. The Maritimcl, l"1'ovinces and Central Canada showed sub- stantial increases in cow numbers but de- creases were reported in Manitoba and Saskatchewan.

Creamery butter consumption ill Cali- ada during the first eight months of this year was higher than in any correspond- ing pcriod since the pre-margarine year of I948. Canadians are increasing their but.- ter purchases by about a million pounds per month over last year. In contrast, margarine sales during the first two-thirds of this year were 2 million pounds less than during the same period a ycar earlier.

Stocks of Creamery butter in Canada on September 1st this year were at the all-time high level of 90 million pounds. This is the largest butter stock recorded for any month in history and is accounted for by a sharp increase in production. From January to August, production was

"We should like to see NATO built up, not just in the military sense, but in every Why should it not take over

Why should it not express com- mercial arrangements? We are always being told that the reasons NATO is not: going ahead faster are economic ones. Very, well, then; let us have the same kind of consultation and collaboration on that scorci as we have on the military side. Why should it not attract and inspire the lead-; ing minds of the West-the men and wo-l men who sway public opinion? What class, of people are more concerned with pro? tecting civilized culture?

”The possibilities are endless. The poilit is that Western civilization is not going to be saved by the UN. Neither is it going to be saved by the U.S. It is only going to be saved by its own collective efforts; and for that purpose, has created NATO. Having created it. alid having gone this far with it, the free natiolis should not halt until it has such economic strength, such military strength, and above all such moral istrength. that Russia will be not merely lwilling, but eager, to come to terms."

EDITORIAL NOTES Despite serious setbacks suffered be- ,cause of this year's late. cold and wet .spring, southern Albertals sugar beet har- vest is expected to produce nearly 56,000.- 000 worth of sweet roots from 34,700 acres this fall. The yield in refined sugar is estimated between 100,000,000 and 110,- 000,000 pounds. This is the fourth largest crop of sugar ever produced in the area and serves to point up the fact that the West can produce something besides its

much publicized wheat. O O O I

These polls, as now report- god from Stockholm, show that 78 per cent of the people queried hope the Western Powers will win in the cvent. of any war with Communist Russia and her allies. Only one per cent favoured the Reds. 79 per cent of those polled agreed that Sweden should resist any armed attack, even ff the

outcome of such a war might seem uncer-p

l'nrlcr the circumstances. says an ex- rlialigc. it might seem logical and wise for Sweden to enter the North Atlantic Treaty Organization outright. However, the Swedes remember that in the last war they were ahlc to maintain a considerable measure of neutrality, and many of them probably hope thcy could assume a similar role in the cvcnt of any third global struggle. What they ovcriook. in that case, is the fact that Swcdcn remained neutlal mainly hccausc it served the purpose of Nazi Ger- many to allow her to do so. With that purpose gonc, and with no clear indication that thc Russians would find any similar t'OllVf'lliCll('.Q to suit their hook. Sweden's hope of ncutrnlity in the future may he fals".

NATO Possibilities

A new concept of the North Atlantic Treaty Organization by the fourteen na- tions which belong to it appears to be shaping up, says the Globe and Mail. The alliance came into being originally as all offshoot of the United Nations, created un- tier Article 51 of the UN Charter, which grants all members "the inherent right of individual or collective self-defense". Sheer necessity gave it birth. The leading West- crn Powers recognized that UN could not protect Western Europe, and therefore that-they themselves would have to band together for that purpose. The result was an organization which has in effect taken UN's place; a body of nations which really are united.

”lt is not necessary to write off the UN,” says' our Toronto contemporary. That organization still performs many use- ful purposes. Perhaps, at some more for- tunate time, it may be everything it was intended to be. But now. and, for many months to come. it is the NATO to which the free world must look. It is a good al- liance; it must become a great one, com- muglng such faith and loyalty from the cm of people it represents that they

After a long and distinguished career of surveying and oceanographlcal research. in the course of which she made the deep- est-ever recorded sounding of 5,940 fath- oms, H. M. Survey Ship "Challenger? has returned to Portsmouth to become a "Re- -serve" ship. Many previously undiscover- ed features have been brought to light by "Challenger", and the geology of rocks be- neath the sca surface have been investi- gated. The eighth ship in the Royal Navy to, bear 'the name, "Challenger" was built at Chatham in 1931. Since 1932 and throughout the war, she has been con- tinuously employed ln surveying and ocean- ographlcal duties in all parts of the world, from Labrador to the Far. East:

The long and usually polemlca arguments which precede aclun proposals in Soviet dlplomncy are often of more significance than the p.,, 1- thunnlvu. Thu inch 1 think enable: one to unravel the meaning of the much-studied Sov- iet. note of September 28 to the three Western Powers. The propos- als themselves are simply a rep!-'1' ltlon of those made in the note of August 4. There should be 1. con- ference to "examine, measures for reducing tension in international relations": another to "discuss the German question." Whether they would meet in sequence or simul- taneously in not entirely clear.

If that were all there would seem to be no reason why such I aus- gestlon should not. be favourably considered by the three Western Governments. But the insistence that the Chinese Communist. Gov- ernment shall tske part. in the wider discussions makes it impos- sibls that the proposal rhoulcl be accepted at the present. time. That. of course. the Soviet Government knows quite well. It may be that this is its purpose: that Moscow has in fact. no desire for a con- ference and is deliberately laying down 1 condition which it. is sure will be rejected in order to be able to accuse the Western Powers of preventing, by their attitude to- wards the Chinue People": Re- public. any serious attempt to ease the tension in lntemational relat- tom.

0 O 0

That. the argument that "the constant participation of the Peo- ple's Republic of China. in necessary inmnchievlnz I general reduction of tension in international relat- ions" is one of expediency-and not of principle is obvious. For in 1951 the soviet Government was at. any rate in appearance perfectly will- ing that this should be dealt. with by A Four Power Conference.

But. as I have laid the significance of the new note beams to me to lie now in the proposal for two con- ferenceg or ln the insistence that Communist China should lake part in one of them. IL L1 to be found in the lengthy introductory passages. For these disclote the character of the conference: which the soviet Government has in mind and give a sort of preview of the attitude which the Soviet delegation might be expected to adopt.

The British. French and Amer- ican Government: are. for example. asked to agree to discuss "the dangers of the aggressive policy of the North Atlantic Bloc" and "acts of diversion. sabotage and terrorism in the countries of the democratic camp.” The Government of the United States is to discuss its ”lm- permiuible, crash and one-sided" attitude with regard to the Kor- ean Conference. It is "not to be denied" that the existence of Brltlshlnd American bases in Eur- ope (an essential part of the West European Defence system) "pursues aggressive ends." And so on.

It is ii reversion in harsher tones in the impossible agenda on which Mr. Gromyko insisted at. the Dep- uties meeting in Paris in 1951-and by that insistence made the hold- ing of I. Pour Power Conference im- possible. So, too with regard to Germany. The core of the Soviet -proposal is that. the first step must be the formation of a provisional all-German Government by the co- operation of the two existing gov- ernments. Unless that is acceptcd "practicable measures towards the re-establishment of Germany's unity are precluded." Again it isan impossible proposal. For not only the West German Govemntent but the Social Democrat Opposition to emphatic that especially since the June revolt in Eastern Germany any such partnership with the East German Communists is excluded.

What then does all this signify? The Soviet Government proposes two conferences. But. in each case it is careful to lay down preliminary conditions which it knows to be im- possible ones. I am driven to what seems to 'me the inescapable con- clusion that, in existing circum- stances. the Soviet. Government would find A conference on German problems more than embarrassing. But it. connot. admit that. There- fore instead of refusing the three- -power invitation it ignores it. But it effectively makes its holding inl- posslble. And it does so in 1 man- ncr which it hopes will enable 1t to pretend that it is the Western Pow- ers which are refusing to copfer.
