A Strange World

Truly it‘s I strange world which we are living. Now it’s Com- munist China and France that are being accused in the leading Soviet party newspaper, Pravda, of “march- ing together“ in opposition to a nu- clear test hall. For good measure, Pravda throws in West Germany. too, and its attack has been quickly echoed by lzvestia, the official Soviet

This time the operation went ahead more smoothly. “There is I ‘wnnderful inside story to be told

I I some day," writes Mr. Fisher, "about

the negotiations on these raises I among the parties. Wonderful in the I sense that, d e s pit e undeniable ‘ unanimity about the general need. it I all boiled dolvn to one man: I man lwho has pointed out a number of

times the unremunerative aspect of l politics. John Diefenhaker."

The reason for the unanimity, the NDP member went on to say, "are of the kind that one cannot put well to the public because they are so person.

‘ al. Every MP knows others here now. or recently here, who are deeply in debt. He knows of widows and

stances. One Member, I good Member. who died a few days ago left a young family and debts close to $20,000. This man had not been a free-spending gadfly but a hard-

man.

But there was another side to the story, as Mr. Fisher was frank enough to concede in his

government organ. Both papers laud lamde' «The fact remnins' as we

the US. British and Soviet limited accord initialled in Moscow last week and denounce those who are working against it as \varmongers.

Pravda adds that “the position of some responsible lea d e r s of the People's Republic of China—who are unabashedly si ing with the French exponents of the continuation of the nuclear tests and the thermonuclear arms racewis also amazing. They un- ashamedly borrow from French bour- geois propaganda its demagogical arguments and repeat them word for word."

In its turn, Communist China's press has launched an all-out indict- ment of the test ban treaty and of Soviet policy in connection there- with. It interprets the treaty as a dastardly move to stop China from developing its own nuclear weapons.

From Washington we note that State Undersecretary Averell Harri— man has quoted Soviet Premier Khrushchev as being "not overly con- , cemed" about a nuclear threat from I Red China. “He told me," said Mr. Harrimsu at a press conference on Monday, "it would be a long, long time before they (the Chinese) ha'l

And for Moscow it must be equal— ly reassuring to note, on the author- ity of British Foreign Secretary the Earl of Home, that France is still "a long way behind" in the nuclear bomb race and that President de Gaulle‘s refusal to go along with the test-ban agreement in no way de- creases the value of the accord.

Topping it all comes word that Premier Khrushchev, in his exuber- ance over the new turn of events. has sent to Prime Minister Harold Mac- millan “an oral message of greeting and good wishes and a gift of caviar, Russian wines and spirits.”

Operation Pay Boost Mr. Diefenbaker, it seems, com- mitted the unpardonable sin by pro- testing against the parliamentary pay boost in the Commons on Monday. A -New Democratic Party spokesman, Mr. Douglas Fisher, found it. diffi— cult to restrain himself from making “remarks of sheer, bitter anger” at- ' listening to the Opposition leader on this point. In Mr. Fisher's view— I‘nd doubtless in the view of many of his auditors—such kind of talk was mischievous elaptrap: it was "clawing into this discussion the definition of politics as the conduct of public affairs for private advan- - n

It is a plausible answer to these objections that the taxpayers would really like to get.

Commendable Eliorts

The City Police Department’s ef- forts to slow down traffic at danger- ous intersections should have the sup- port of all our citizens. Action in this matter has been taken in the erec- tion of a four-way stop sign at the intersection of Kirklvood Drive and Upper Queen Street, and the lice have been subjected to or em from some quarters for doing so. In- stead, they should be commended. The area is a comparatively new one, where there are many young child- ren and where there have been com- plaints that motorists have been driving recklessly.

Blame the few reckless drivers, not the police, when restrictions of this kind have to be imposed. There may be other areas where similar restrictions are needed. In any class, it is the business of our traffic authorities to see that no promotions are neglected. As Police Chief Web- ster well says, the life of one child is worth more than all the inconven- ience the travelling public is likely to incur in measures of this kind.

Of course, children shouldn't be out on the streets. But there are not enough playgrounds to go around. There is not even enough housing as»

I commodation for families of modest

means with small children to provide for. What are they expected to do? The situation is getting worse, not better, despite all our talk about civic planning. Perhaps if we attend- , ed to our housing problem first Ive : would find o ur traffic problems I easier to handle. At least, we would Ibe able to approach them with a better civic conscience.
