Neutrals Seek Action

The failure of the big powers to make any progress in achieving a reduction in nuclear armament is not belng accepted with fatalistic resig- nation by the rest of the world. Not by all of it, at least. The five most “neutral” Latin-American nations— Brazil, Mexico, Chile, Bolivia, and Ecuador—have announced that they will try again to have the United Nations General Assembly declare Latin America a denuclearized zone. They hope to succeed at next fall’s Assembly session where they failed last fall during the Cuban crisis.

'At that time Brazil proposed to get Soviet rockets out of Cuba by banning nuclear weapons from the whole Latin-American area. The measure failed to gain acceptance because of difficulties in devising an acceptable inspection 8 y s t em. This year the five signatories will press for an Assembly vote that would call for setting up a. Latin- American conference on the subject. Their declaration, which has been forward to U.N. Secretary-Gen- eral U Thant. pledges the signator- ies not to “manufacture, receive, store, or test nuclear weapons or nuclear-carrying devices.”

The United States has greeted the proposal warily, commending its sentiment but reserving comment on its application until details may be disclosed. Unofficially it is point- ed out that nothing in the terms of the declaration indicate how a Polaris submarine or surface .vessel passing through the Panama Canal would be classified. This, presum- ably, Would be a “matter of detail" for the nations themselves to debate before drawing up a. specific agree- ment.

Meanwhile, a new impetus has been given to African demands that the French Sahara test area be eliminated and Africa be declared a nuclear-free zone. This has been sparked by France’s announcement that it would build a nuclear test- ing ground in the Tahitian Islands in the South Pacific.

It is hard to escape the convict- ion that in this matter it is the so- called backward nations, and not the ones in the van of scientific pro- gress, that are giving expression to the voice of humanity.

EnthusiasticaIIy Cozy On one of his first days in the capital as Prime Minister, the Cana- dian Press reported that Mr. Pear- eon "met with the deputy ministers of the various government depart- ments and was given a warm re- ception.” A photograph was then tokenrand published in a number of papers, showing the Prime Min- later, surrounded by the top civil manta who were so warmly wel- coming him back to Parliament Hill. " In one sense, this is understand- But the dangers have been pointed out by Prof. J. H.

public display of affection and ad- miration.” '

Prof. Aitchison pays his tribute to the Canadian civil service. But he sees the dangers in the displays of mutual regard that are quite so unrestrained. He believes that the picture of the Prime Minister among the welcoming deputy ministers sug- gests “too strongly for comfort the welcome given by a resistance move. ment to the liberating and conquer- ing army of legitimacy." This would be harmless “only on the assump- tion that we are going to have a Liberal government forever."

Commenting approvingly on this warning, the Montreal Gazette says it would seem that the new Govern- ment has special reasons for demon- strating its detachment from the civil service. One of these reasons is that the decline and defeat of the long Liberal regime Were not un- related to a public impression that a group of civil servants, though of undoubted ability, were not only carrying out policy but were active in forming it. The lines between the Government and the civil ser- vice had b e c o m e disturbingly blurred.

“A cabinet that has eight for- mer civil servants among its mem- bers," adds The Gazette. “has spec- ial reason to emphasize th at the Government and its civil service, though certainly needing to work together in harmony, are still two very different things. The first one is essentially political, while the other has to be essentially the reverse."

Heart-Warming Example St. Dunstan’s University can well be proud of its graduates. They have distinguished themselves in many walks of life at home and abroad; but hOWever far they go, or high they climb, they seem never to lose their sense of gratitude and affection for their alma mater. The old ties, formed in student days, hold fast throughout life. We have evidence of this at every annual commencement exercise, in the re- turn of former graduates to partici- pate in the ceremonies and renew their youth and the aspirations they were taught to cherish. Educational institutions everywhere act as a. magnet of this kind, but St. Dun— stan’s has been singularly blessed in the imprint it has made on the lives of those who have come under its influence»

An example of this sense of gratitude has been afforded in a very practical way by the munifi- cent donation of $250,000 which Dr. St. Clair Duffy, a distinguished sur- geon of Montreal who graduated from St. Dunstan’s in 1920 and is to be honored with a degree from the institution on Tuesday, has made on this occasion. The donation will cover approximately one-half the cost of the new science building which is being planned. and which will be a valuable addition to the educational facilities of the Province.

Dr. Duffy is a native of Kinkora, and has exemplified in his own car- eer the qualities which make for outstanding success. We trust that his brief visit atthis time will en- able him to renew many old friend- ships, and form new ones among the younger generation. We venture to say that his generosity to his old college will be appreciated not only by those directly concerned, but by his fellow Islanders of all classes. creeds and occupations.

The Maple In Rich Variety

The Printed Word, Toronto

Anyone wishing to prove that I Canadians have a distinctive I character need only examine the ; maple. This has fittingly been: selected as the tree that is em- blimatic of Canada. Peoples of

leaf maple is the one that mar- veling easteruers press and take back home to frame in a pic- ture that spreads over th e

whole side of a room, proving :

that Canada is large indeed. The

other lands should be impressed by the fact that Canadians have taken this tree as their own. Even a brief study of the maple shows the kind of deflniteness and unified purpose peculiar to this great country.

The best known of these is the l

sugar maple — well known un- less one does not happen to live where it grows. These places where the sugar maple does not grow Indigenoust are Newfound- land. Manitoba. Saskatchew a n. Alberta. British Columbia. the Yukon. the North-West Territor- ies and most of Quebec and On-

tario. This well - known sugar - maple is also the well - known I hard maple, rock maple, black maple. curly maple and bird's- eye maple. I

Growing in the same area as I the sugar ma 1e and therefore I missing nine-tenths of Canada is the red maple. which is also the water maple, swamp maple, soft maple and scarlet maple.

All Canadians are familiar with the beautiful vine maple un- less they live north of Vancouv- er Island or east of the Cascad- es. This tree is the most distinc- five of the Canadian maples in that it has only one extra name. The vine maple is also the moun- tain maple.

ANOTHER MAPLE

Another maple celebrated in song by all Canadians except those so unfortunate as not to live on the BC coast is the broadleaf maple. This e is much more widespread than the vine, or mountain, maple; al- though it doesn't grow east of the Cascades. it reaches away north of Vancouver island to the Alaska panhandle. The leaf of the broad-

I broadleaf maple is thus seen to be distinctive and it goes as the broad- leaved maple. the bigleaf maple_ the British Columbia maple and the Oregon maple— where they think it Is their maple.

Everyone knows the Manitoba maple. which grows In Alberta. Saskatchewan. southern Ontario and also in Manitoba. This read- y - recognized tree is also the Inland Manitoba maple. the in- land box - elder and ash - leaf maple.

The mountain maple (not to be confused with that mountain maple that Is also the vine map- let does not grow In the moun- tains of British Columbia, or in British Columbia at all. Th e mountain maple does not grow in the mountains of Alberta. It does grow In eastern Saskatchewan and in every other province. the mountains are

grows especially well in the lower country. Covering a vast arc the mountain maple is therefore well known. and also under the names of the white maple and dwarf maple.

EASILY IDENTIFIED ln Ontario and east. except in

i Newfoundland. there is the eas- . lly - identified striped maple. In

the usual Canadian way of be- Ing definite, this is also called the moose maple and the moose-

ood.

Another variety of maple Ithis emblem of Canada) is the silver maple. It does not grow in BC. Alta. Sask.. Man, NS, PEI or Newfoundland. it is found in sou- thern NB and in about a fifth of Que. and Ont. Other names that

MEMORIES 0F MOTHER

The house seemed so empty when Mother was gone: it was as though she had woven part of erself around' everything within its walls. So many little things her hands had fashioned: a vase of flowers on a table re- flected her gaiety: the Holy Bible close beside her favorite rocker reflected her goodness.

There was a feeling of alone- ness in our home when would go aWAy. but the great joy when she returned was something to remember. I some day the desire to paint that has been haunting me should become a reality. then I shall paint a plcture‘of my Mo- ther gathering wild flowers as I so often beheld her. surround- ed green fields splashed with buttercups. like dubs of yellow gold on slender stems. drifts of daisies like miniature oranges surrounded by wreaths of snow. her long skirts leaving a trail in the grass hind her, as she went gathering the pre- cious bou net.

HARD ON THE FARMER

Sin—The standard of living has improved in the city but in the country it has dlsgracefully fallen back. The price of feed to the farmer has gone up. so has the price of everything he buys in town: but the modern farmer gets less for everything he sells, while the city people it. They still have not got the farmer down yet so they start putting up the taxes. I person- ally feel that with a road that has not been shaled for as long as people can remember. and tractors getting bogged down axles and having to

walk one mile to gel to one's car would make it Impossible for anyone to get to the hospi- tal if necessary. And since the government thinks we are too far out in the sticks to deliver our mail I fer-l we are paying plenty of taxes now without any

more. What kind of buses are you going to have that will go through roads that tractors won't. or will they be left on the pavement? ' If you doubt the condition of the r d and think that a bus could on] children over it this time of year, come out and to go from Suffolk up to Pleas- ant Grove. before it dries up.

Mother’s Love Vital To Child

By Dr. Theodore R. Van Dellen

PLAY and friendship with companions are just as Import- ant as mother love In the emo- tional development of the child. These are some of the conclu- sions that are emerging from the famous primate laboratory at the University of Wisconsin. Infant monkeys. like children. thrive on mother's love but they also need to romp and play with others of their own age

Several years ago we wrote about this unique‘ experiment. In which the behavior of infant monkeys was studied under a variety of conditions. Some were allowed to live with their own mothers whereas others had Imitation mothers made of a wire frame covered with ter- ry cloth. The latter were equip- ped with a mechanism to pro- vide nourishment but the young were not caressed or talked to in monkey sounds.

According to Dr. Harry I". Harlow, the infant monkeys de- prived. of mother love develop- ed abnormal behavior patterns. They were incapable of normal motherth themselves and us- ually rejected or abused their own offspring.

But the situation was twice as bad when the baby monkey was deprived not only of a mo- ther but also of play contact with other little monkeys. They sat and stared vacantly into space for hours. failed to pro- tect themselves when attacked. and later displayed extreme forms of sexual aberrations and aggressiveness. They behaved like disturbed human children In psychiatric clinics.

Dr. Harlow believes these ex- periments have u n c o v e r e d many lessons of value in -child development. In his opinion. we have overemphasized the mother relationship In social de- velopment and underestimated the chlld-Io-chlld contacts.

The mother who tends to re- Ject her own child usually fails to prepare the youngster for healthy group play. But the progeny of overprotective lov- ing mothers may suffer just as much when their darlings are not allowed to play with their

peers. BOY PREFERS MILK

E.C.M. writes: Should I be alarmed over the fact that my 3‘12-yesr-old son will take noth- ing for breakfast except a glass of milk? He eats a good lunch and dinner.

REPLY

No. but make certain his con- sumption of milk does not ex- ceed one q u o rt daily. Some children go on milk hinges and refuse to eat anything. As a re. sull. they develop severe ane- mia because milk does not con- tain iron.
