“The strongest memory ls -weaker than the weakest ink.” MONDAY, MARCH 31,’19§§

A ——Bui Voie!_ ,

This is one day on which the elector. isin the driver's: seat. He can vote as he pleases; there is no com- pulsion on thatscore. But there is a moral ‘compulsion’ that he exercise his franchise, one wayfior another. This is a right that has been fought ' and won" for him years before he was born. In many countries it is a right that is still denied. Immigrants who have come to Canada from such M countriesmarvel at the apparent in- difference of many. of our voters in this free ‘democracy, and at the fact that anyone would throw away such

a priceless‘ possession as the secret ballot.

It is hoped and expected that to- day’s vote in the federal general election will be a record one. While the total eligible voters show a con- siderable, increase over last year, the figures for this Province, unfortun- ately, are actually reversed-—53,108 this year as against 54,224 in 1957. That is all the more reason why we should utilize our privilege to the full. We have good candidates and they deserve support. Let 'us set an objective today of scoring the high- est proportion of eligible votersin the Dominion. That will be one way of showing that despite our small population we are still entitled to our representation under the _British ‘ North America Act, and to the rights -

There was also evidence of a good‘ deal of skuldruggery, so much so that voters were required to dip a forefinger in ' a bottle of indelible -ink on leaving, « the polling booth as a, safeguard against “ballot stuffing”. _

What with one. thingand another, it would seem that perhaps there was undue haste in making a new nation in the Caribbean. '

Noi Much Change

- Some diplomats are saidto be ex- cited and a little worried over the- elevation of Nikita Khrushchev .to

Just why this is so is, difficult to understand. Certainly, it doesn’t make things much worse ‘or much better than they were. before. Mr. Khrushchev has been the boss of the Soviet Government-: and its chief spokesman and,aiwitha1, a virtual dic- tator of Russia"‘e‘ver since the death‘ of Stalin, except for the few months ‘ Georgi Malenkov heldthe reins; and even then he had more actual power « than the Premier exercised.

The only thing that has happened is the doing away of the myth of “collective security” which Khrush- chev. was in the habit of talking ab0ut"for purposes’ of propaganda. Wh.‘eithe’r__,that. will make any differ- ence inside Russia remains to be seen; but it seems unlikely, for the Rustsiaii people must have known all a.!.ong that absolute power was in the llal'lClS-~()f one —n1.a?n,v'and apparently" it hasn't bothered them very mucli. As far 1‘el.a‘rions with the outside \\»'<.ll"l(.l are concerned, it is a mere formality; and it isn’t likely to make negotiations with the Soviet Union any easier or any more difficult than they have been hitherto.

Sling industry.

that Khrushchev felt strong enough to seize power in form as he has held it long since in substance. That might enlarge his ego and strengthen his arrogance; but it is hard to see how it can have much effect one way or the other on Soviet policy or on world problems.

Threatening Letters‘

Uneasy lies the head of the man‘ who happens to be President of the United States at any given time. At least, it would be uneasy were the President not so wellprotected as he is against would-be ‘assassins. This is the tenor of a report given to the Congress recently‘ by Mr. U. E. Bang- ham, Chief’ of the Secret Service,- which has the responsibility of pro- tecting the Chief Executive.

The report revealed that last year 17,801 letters addressed to the Presi- dent were scrutinized for “security reasons”. Of these, 949 were of such natureas to require investigation by field offices.of the Service. 66 per- sons were arrested for making threats against the President’s life. These figures are “about average” for a year.

‘Mr. Bughman explained that, un- like the situation in Europe and Asia where assassin attempts on govern- ment leaders are usually made by dis- gruntled and embittered politicians or their hirelings, in the United States most of the threats come from mentally disturbed persons 1 who “simply feel compelled to assassinate a President, any President”. Only rarely is any personal animosity in- volved. One man arrested last year had only just left a mental institu- tion to which he had been committed in 1929 for threatening President Herbert Hoover.

EDUCATION, 01.1) AND NEW

Sir,-—D,urri-ng a discussion on ed- ucation that took place a year ago on the floor of our House of Assembly, a c e r t a in member made a brief but none the less an eloquent speech in, which he uttered the following words, “I believe every school in Prince Ed-

. tique, but ‘nevertheless a pretty; I1fi~me.,wl1om I presume to be a »

teacher and obviously a female one. This writer represents her viewpoint to be what is usually termed the progressive or mod- ern one,‘,and a few passages from her comparatively lengthy letter will be sufficient to show that, notwithstanding her tique andpretty name, she is a ‘very real type of the modern- ‘school of educators, arid I quote the following passage: ’ “Today the teacher who does most for the pupils, uses progres- sive methods and management that develops interest, attitudes, skills, abilities and character to adjust the individual for better social living. Goodwill and co-op-

cion of in old school is dying out and motivation and interest are taking its place. This is a forward movement and not soft pedagogy. Pupils are studying subject mat- ter that is useful for life but they are not crammed with facts, some true, some false.” 4 I quote again: “The teacher do- ing the most for the pupil has a procedure midway between the old stuffing school and the activi- ty school. Here one finds progres- sive methods and management used to promote interests and ha- bits of study with understanding that leads to new light and dut- ies. Desirable attitudes and co-op- eration between teacher and pup- il are kept alive. Directed stud- ies, problems and activities are planned by the teacher in co~op- eration with the pupils and work. ed out to master ideas and prin- ciples with their application to life. The‘ learning process is made purposeful and the achieve- ment _gives satisfaction; Such a school has ‘more for the mind.’ It builds character and person- ality." ,(In- the last .two senten-

furiiig to Miss Hilda Neatby's criticism of modern education in her book entitled “So Little for the Mind.”)

The careful reader of the above quotations‘ will observe, of course, that the writer has failed to men- tion definitely in them a single subject that, in her opinion, should be studied in our common public schools. Her only attempt to specify essential subjects is found in two brief paragraphs at the close of her letter. This attempt reads as follows: “All children should be taught to love good music, literature and flow- ers. Be the school ever so plain and poor, it may be made attrac- tive with growing plants, books and magazines.” (“l~loni soit qui mal y pense.”) But I do wish nevertheless that this modernisli writer would name me one mod- ern popular magazine that in her opinion would add to either the _beauty or moral atmosphere of the schoolroom.

A WHERE HAS THIS HERO BEEN? 1 UNITED KINGDOM OPINION

By the time this column ap- pears it will be only a few days away from'Ea.ster. So lets look at Easter in Britain, 1958. As us- ual there is something old, some- thing new.

And if {he or she professes to be able also to teach “social behavior” inci- dentally from facts of history and arithmetic, reinforced here and there, of course, with a bit of good old hickory, or something Just as good — then so much the better.

Finally, in regard to teaching the pupils to love good music, flowers and all things bright and beautiful, let us hope that here,‘ at ‘least, an old traditionist from Missouri can join heart and mind with a modernist schoolmistlress‘ from Prince Edward Island - differing, perhaps, only on the question of how this can be done.

GENEROUS TREATMENT

Sir,—-Several weeks ago. on my way to Boston to have a heart operation, I met Mr. Diefen- baker at Moncton, and had a very pleasant talk with him.

He informed -me that the Premier of Prince Edward Is- land had been to see him about a grant for the Island_ I was impressed with the sincerity of Mr. Diefenbaker and his under- standing of the needs of the Island. He informed me that he had earmarked two and one half million dollars for the Island per year for four years. This was a grant over and above the usual. Also, be ex- plained how the Liberal Go- vernment had refused a simi- lar grant to the Island_

I was very much surprised when I read in your paper that Mr. Matheson had distorted the facts concerning this grant.

I would like to pose the fol»

lowing questions: (1) Who dished out the “shabby treat- ment”? (2) Was it not the Liberal Governmeni, in Ottawa for twenty-two years?

QUESTION AND ANSWER N. E.: What causes night sweats? ' Answer: ‘There are many causes for night sweats. The most common one, of course,‘ is sleeping with too many covers. It is often due to the presence of a chronic infec- tion in the body. .Tub‘eroualo-sis is a c ommon cause, but the other symptoms of this disease are more .-pro- nounced, such as lass of weight,‘ oougihing, and fever.

ary. Trafalgar Square, .111 a.m., Good Friday is the time and place set for a mass rally before a protest. mar-ch starts fr-cf. Lon- don to the neighbouring county of Berkshire. There, at a place called Aldermaston, 50% miles from Trafalgar Square, is the a t o in i c research establishment That is the target for the mraich ers. »

The idea is to do the march in ‘four days, culminating in a raid, 1y outside the research establish- ment and then a week-long vigil outside the establishment’-s gate.

What will the marchers be pro- testing againslt? They will be pro- testing against the H-bomb, and they will be urging its abolition.

I’ve just met some of those who are organizing themarclh. A lot of them are cranks, a lot are ex- treme Left-Wing pacifiists of the type that did Britain no good at all in‘ the 19305 and contributed to her unpreparedness when Hit- ler went on the march.

The trouble is that the march willmake an emoit-onla appeal to a lot of sincerely-minded folk. Churchmen and politicians, ac- tors, writers, musicians and com- edians are supporting it.

But already‘ it is apparent that the March will have the net re- sult of any other protest march. It won’t .mean a. darn flhing. THE BIGGEST?

One of the organizers told me that the march could be at times the biggest in political history. Well. it will depend a great deal on the weather. -

And while the march will have no effect on the current govern- ment it is highly unlikely that it I-@1101‘ 0l0l30SitiJ0n party either. But what is apparent is the way that the Laborites are hardening their stand on defence over he;-e_

And it will take more than the march to Aldermas-to-n to bring them together again. . . BACK TO EASTER

Another Easter event? For the first time for some years, the his- toric annual Boat Race between the universities of Oxford and Cambridge will be held then, on Easter Saturday.

‘This boat race divides the na- tion just as mu-ch as politics do. You need n-ot bother if Australia wins a cricket match so long as
