.. The Moon's Influence

From the scientific angle, the launching of an artificial moon by the Soviet l'ni0ri ahead of the United States is probably of no great int- portance. The American project won't be far behind; and when it comes it is likely to be an improve- ment oi er the Soiiet one. But from the standpoint of prestige, its jm. portance is wry great. especially since it came so soon after the launching of the first intercontin- ental missile. another Soviet achieve- ment.

In Asia and the Middle East. the achievement is almost certain to be taken as proof of the Soviet l'nion's scientific and technological superior- ity over the West. And not only that. But front now on ('ommunist propagandists will be in a better position to argue that Soviet indus- trial and economic expansion can- also outrun that of the United States.

Some months ago Mr. Khrush- chev boasted that within another year or so Soviet farm production would be the greatest in the world. At the.t.ime, the prediction was re- ceived generally with I good deal of scepticism. Now, the distressed peoples of the world-more than half the world's population-who, incidentally. are more interested in grain than in artificial moons will probably give it I little more cred- ence.

Socialism & Monarchy

when the British Labour Party first began to take an important role in politics it was believed in some quarters that if it ever came into power it would make an at- tempt to get rid of the momrchy or. at least. tamper with its prero- gatives. Those fears-or-hopes. Ic- cording to the point of viewahave never been realized. The monarchy has been just as safe and just as highly regarded under Socialist re- gimes as under Conservative ones. The two Labour Prime Ministers. the late Ramsay MacDonald and the present Earl Attlee. took second place to n...-.- in devotion and service to the Crown.

In a rec:-in issue of the "Record", I Labour Party pci'iodi('al. this stand was upheld. "In our new democratic scoiety." the Record noted (mean- ing. of course, a society dominated by Socialisin), "there will be room for hlood -- royal as well as the ancient British lineage, for many of them have great gifts." This suggests that the monarchy will be retained because it rcndcrs a service to the nation. The tnith. however, it that the monarchic tradition is so deeply rooted in Britain and so highly re- vered, despite occasional criticism, that it is most unlikely that any political faction. even one led by extreme leftists. would think of in- terfering with it. It would be a poor way of enticing votes.

Potato Experiment

Tests which are scheduled to terminate about October 19 should prove of great interest to our farm- ers. They may determine whether or not the use of atomic energy could benefit the potato industry. The study is being made jointly by the Horticulture Division. Central Experimental Farm, Ottawn. the Commercial Products Division. At- omic Energy of Canada Ltd.. Ind

The effect of in-Idintion on the

ties of Potatoes used for potato isoneofthott.-Its beingcIr- "lied out In this joint experimentnl project. In addition I series of chemical tests are being made to determine the effect of irradiation on the nutritive qualities of the potatoes. The tubers used in this experiment were irradiated on Dec. 12, 1956, and are beingJield at two controlled temperatures, tests being made on them It regular intervals. This is but one of the new methods of food preservation now under in- vestigation, which in their entirety may revolutionize the food industry and methods of marketing agricul- tural products.

New Telephone Cable

Officials of the American Tele- phone and Telegraph Company have announced that a second telephone cable to link the North American Continent with Europe will soon be laid to supplement the one which was. completed last year to connect London, Ottawa and New York.

The new line will provide 13 two- way circuits to France, 13 to Ger- many. 10 other circuits will be re- served for extension to other Euro- pean countries. The deep sea portion will stretch from L.'larenville. Nfld.. to Permarch. France. a distance of approximately 2,400 miles. The pro- ject is expected to cost 340 million. 64 per cent of which will be paid by the A. T. and T. and the remain- der by French and West German agencies. The first system cost about 542 million. That one ends at Oban, Scotland, but direct circuits are pro- vided to most West European coun- tries by way of London.

According to the President of A. T. and T., as I result of the laying of the first cable. "in less than a year traffic to Great Britain has gone up 100 per cent and traffic to. the continent 50 per cent."
