Mr. Nehru's Grievance

Mr. Nehru is deeply pained. lie said so yesterday in an interview with reporters at New Delhi. The

Indian Prime Minister wasn't pained I

because of the debacle in the Middle

Nasser. Nor was he iioticeaiiiy pained about the slauzlitcr of iiuiigarian patriots by the ('r-mmuiiists. at least until world pressiire forced him to take a stand on the subject. What gave him so much pain yesterday was that the I'.N. Security Council. by it vote of iii to Ft. called upon India to keep hands off l(aslimii' until the people of that coi.intry can decide their future through a plebiscite!

The same ruling applies to Pak- istan: but that's what makes it so painful in Mr. Nehi'u's opinion. Iiis representative at the Security Coun- cil. Mr. Kristina. took seven hours and forty-eight minutes to explain why the rules of democracy sIiouldn't apply in this case, because it liner- fered with India's plans for annexing liasliniir. Pakistan had asked that a l'.N. police force be sent there to

why he complained so strongly to

It was all Britain's fault. no doubt. In granting independence to the Indian subcontinent she provided that Kashmir could determine her own destiny in this manner. regard- less of Mr. Nehru's ideas on the sub- ject. And yesterday Britain placed herself among the sponsors of the Security Council resolution. along with the United States, Australia, Columbia and Cuba, in demanding that the plebiscite take place. But what pained Mr. Nehru most of all. perhaps. was the fact that his good friends the Soviets let him down. They abstained from voting. Even after listening to Mr. Krishna's mar- athon speech they didn't lift I hand In protest against this iniquitous democratic procedure of letting Kash- mir go where she pleased. -What is the world coming to and why have those sermons which Mr. Nehru has been preaching so vehemently against "imperialism" fallen on such deaf ears!

Canada Should Say iIYes"

L'nitc-d States authorities are still haggling over whether the 381 mil- lion owed by Britain as interest on I 1.043 loan. and which fell due in December, should be deferred in ac- cordance with a British Government lwniest. The money has been placed in a New York bank pending I de- cision. The amount due on principal -S36 milliorr-was paid on time.

Both President Eisenhower and Secretary of the Treasury Humph- rey are said to feel that the defer- ment should be allowed. However, the question is one for Congress to

decide: and In that body some are for and some are against the propo- sition. A few have stated that they would be willing to cancel the in- forest payment altogether: but this view is not likely to be approved, Iince Senator Blni. Chairman of the Senate Finance Committee. has ex- , mnosttlon to It. although he

the nine view there will be no further difficulty.

Meanwhile, the Canadian Gov- ernment, which is also entitled to an interest payment on I loan grant- ed in 1946. appears to be waiting to see what the US. Congress will do, before making a decision of its own. There is no valid reason, though there may be I technical one. why this should be. As Howard Green. Conservative member for Vancouver, pointed out in Parliament a few days ago. Canada would lose nothing by giving I prompt answer in the af- firmative to Britain's request for de- ferment instead of "tagging meekly behind the United States." It is un- thinkable that Parliament would re- fuse approval if given I chance to make I decision.

Overseas Feature The first of I weekly series of London Letters, from the London, England, Bureau of Thomson News- papers, starts iii today's Guardian.

They will appear as a regular Satur- day feature on the editorial page. and will endeavour to interpret Brit- ish viewpoint and thinking on cur- rent affairs.

Despite some unfortunate re- marks which have been made at Ottawa in connection with the Suez I crisis. Canada is still very much a t l l

part of the British Commonwealth and very keenly concerned in the troubles confronting Britain at the present time. Her peaceful aims and objectives have been grossly mis- understood and misrepresented in some quarters. and there is I tend- encwto minimize her importance as a World Power and the vital role she has played, and will continue to play. in the cause of freedom every- where. Perhaps in no part of Canada is there I greater appreciation of these things than in Prince Edward Island. Our close and friendly con- nections with our American neigh- bors have never blurred our percep- tion of the privileges we enjoy as British citizens. and we are suspic- ions of any effort made to under- mine our ties with the Motherland. The London Letters are not pro- paganda articles, for or against the present British Government. Their annroach to political issues is purelv objective: but their news value and general interest should, indirectly. serve I good cause in furthering better understanding of the burden our kinsmen overseas are carrying at the present time. and of their hopes and prospects for the future.

EDITORIAL NOTES

Senator Inman is to be com- mended for raising her vioce in be- half of Maritime economic develop- ment. Her remarkn on farm prob- lems in this province, particularly, showed I good knowledge of con- ditions.

The brief presented to the Prime Minister by the Canadian Labor Con- gress met with I rather poor re- ception, did it not? Most of the sug- gestions were answered in the nega. tive. one or two received a cautious ”maybe”; there was not I single un- equivocal "yen".

D O O

Commenting on last year's high. way fatalities. Mr. .I. A. Gallant, Registrar of Motor Vehicles for the Province. noted that "the majority of accidents occurred on straight sections. in daylight hours and under good travelling conditions." It's the same story everywhere. and it means that plain carelessness rather than mechanical defects and road condi- lions is the main cause of accidents. Things will never improve until this fact is generally recognized and dealt with.

At long last the Federal Govern- ment ls asking the United States to renegotiate the potato tnrlff agree- ment now existing between the two countriesx Fa rm organizations all across Canada have been requesting such action for years.

LONDON I.ET1E1: Macmillan

London - Just after Harold !llacMillan accepted the post of Prime Minister one paper ran an unusual picture of him on the front page. Ii was I photo taken last summer in I puse that was highly symbolic for British readers. He was buckling on pads for a friend- ly cricket match. 'MI(-Millan goes In To Bat." said the caption.

The British sporting instinct will probably always enable people, no matter how serious the situation surrounding I change in govern- ment. to see the new man tnking over in the spirit. of the "old col- lege try”.

You can't expect I younglter of two or three to lnve I three- hour a.ternoon nIp Ind then be ready for bed It 6 p.m. Cut down the afternoon napping period if it doesn't. make him too tired by eve-

ning. N0 GIJAIIANEE

But. even this won't guarantee that your little tyke will willingly toddie off to bed when you want him to. He may begin to cry or scream. And the moment your back is turned he might hop out of bed.

The best thing to do in such cu- es is to tIIk calmly to him. Re- cite some nursery rhymes or may- be tell him I short. short story Ind make him go luck to bed-

l)on't. however. remain in his room playing game: or reading to him. And don't lie down beside him until he's asleep DON'T ARGUE

Above all don't argue with him. Convince him that you don't Ic- tiially care whether he lie: down. If he gets out of bed I second time, ignore him. Let him go back to bed himself. You know perfect- ly well that he prohnbly will do the opposite of what you desire it you quarrel or Irguo with him.

Don't slap your youngster. eith- cr. Remember. he wInts to be with you instead of going to bed sim- ply because he loves you Ind wish- es your company.

There Ire I couple of things to keep in mind that will be of help in getting your child to bed Inn to sleep.
