Liberals Committed, Too

Would the Liberal Government repudiate or keep the commitment made by the Diefenbaker Govern- ment with respect to going ahead with our causeway project? This was the question asked Works Min— ister Deschaleleta in the House of Commons on Thursday. The minis- ter‘s reply was that “the matter is under consideration at present."

We trust that our Liberal rep- resentatives at Ottawa will give their support to those who are urg- ing that the Government’s consider- ation in this case be prompt and favorable. Their pledge, Is given on Ieveral occasions in the last federal campaign, was to build the cause- wa if its feasibility should I). established. Can there be any ques- tion now that the feasibility Itud- iea have been completed and that the project is in the planning stage? This was shown in the 1963-64 esti- mates tabled in Parliament this week by Liberal Finance Minister Gordon. $500,000 toward the cost of “planning a causeway and associat- ed structures acrnss Northumber- land Strait." Could anything be clearer?

Mr Gordon's depalimental en- {zine would never have advised lhi: nEItdllul‘e if they hadn't established beyond doubt: the pro— ]ecl's feasibility. Nor, of course, “mild Mr. Gordon have tabled the item at all if he believed it misrep- resented the purpose for which the expenditure wan to be made. That the sum may have been placed in the estimates by the outgoing adminis- tration is beside the point, except to prove that the department was even then quite satisfied as to the results of Its feasibility studies.

Now it seems to be a question not of the causeway‘s feasibility. but of the political feasibility of going ahead with it. If it were I commit. ment about nuclear Weapons, now, that would be different! Prime Min- ister Pearson is very much concern- ed about “honoring” all Comma» five undertakin' in this reaped;- even to the extent of honoring pled- ges Mr. Diefenbaker claim! were never given. Would it be any less honorable to repudiate I causeway pledge that would benefit Canada's whole Atlantic area, and to which the Liberals themselves are commit:- ted now that the work has reached tfhe stage indicated in Parliament?

After all, it was the Liberals who initiated the causeway scheme. We have always given them credit for that. Let us hope that we shall be able, also, to credit them with full marks for consistency in carrying the project forward.

Khrushchev’s Windlall

Why does Mr. Khrushchev plan to visit Cuba? Why has he made such I fuss over Castro? The ans— wer. according to the Christian Science Monitor. is appallingy sim- ple. Because Cuba is the only con- qust Khrushchev has made without lifting a finger. Because Cuba fell into his hands like a ripe plum. Be- eIuse he did not. have to use the Red mics, and because even the path of subversion. which he did use. was

WY-

Becauand this in the key mimpother Cubae could come to him just as easily. All he needs is a painful grievance on the part of the people of ecme country Igninst a «mule govemment.

atop other Cub-I from going Oom- munist,

it wasn't free that lost Cuba in the first place. It was a deep, p o p u I r, island-wide grievance against I despot named Batista who was far too closely supported by special interest in the United States. It was a political, not a military, motive. More Cubes could (all to Communism anytime, anywhere that the same conditions prevail—an d without Mr. Khrushchev having to lift that finger the next time, or the next or the next.

The Monitor lays the unwelcome facts right on the line. pointing out that: lines these political shifts to- wards Communism could occur with. out the Red armies being used, the United States could not stop them uness it; proposed to invade every country that adopted a political radi‘ calism the United States did not like.

The way to prevent more Cuban,

it concludes, is not to flaunt United ‘

States warships and marines (ex- cept to stop the forcible export of Castroism). It is to look around for other Batistal. And to help the Americas find way to quarantine them, like I stitch in time.

New Labor College

A new page will be added to the history of the Canadian labor move- ment on Monday, when the new Lab: or College of Canada will begin its first courses in Montreal, The Col- lege—the first of its kind in North America—Is l joint undertaking of the Canadian Labor Congress, the Confederaton of National Trade Un- ions, the University of Montreal and McGill University.

While they have always been very active in the field of labor education, the two Canadian labor bodies have learned by experience that: more extensive educational pro- grams are required to train trade unionists for their increasingly com- plex r o l c in present-day society. Hence the new college, which is charterd as an independent, institu. tion with a board of governors drawn from its four sponsoring bodies.

Some 80 students will attend the college this year for its first seven- week term. The courses will deal with history. sociology. economics, political science and trade unionism —theory and practice. Because the college will enjoy the (lo-operation of both a French-language and an English-language university, th e new institution will be completely bilingual and bicultural.

It is pointed out that: while there are already labor colleges in the United Kingdom. Germany, Norway, Sweden, Denmark and other Euro- pean countries as well as in Central America, Asia and Africa, the Lab- or College of Canada will he the first to provide identical courses in both French and English.

This in ii promising move Indeed, and one which could prove of fa!" reaching importance not only to Labor interstl but to those of Can- ada generally.

At long last, Canada is to have a suitable building for the National Archives and the National Library. The contract for its construction was awarded recently in Ottawa, and the building is to be finished in time for the centenary of Confederation in 1967.
