Canada-U. S.Tbrlnership

A United States Congressional Committee, set up a year ago to in- quire into Canadian grievances, has reported, among other things, that Canadian dissatisfaction with Am- erican Far East policy is based main— ly on the fear that “Canada might become involved in a war not of its choosing.”

This, we think, puts the situation in its proper light. Some months ago, when the trouble over the Chin- ese off-shore islands of Quemoy and Matsu threatened to bring about war between the United States and Com- munist China, Canadian Government officials came up with the glib state- ment that .under no circumstances would Canada become involved. That, really, was s. childish thing to say. There is no doubt that Canadians in general would be adverse to partici- pating in a war over a few acres of land off China's coast. But, if war had taken place, and if the Soviet Union had backed China with mili- tary power—as, no doubt, she would have done—non-involvement by Can- ada would have been out of the ques- tion. Canada is so strongly tied up with the United States in continental defence that there would have been no way out. No one can seriously be' lieve that the Soviet Union would by- pass this ‘country in any attack on

the United States. It would be far too _

much to expect.

This is not to suggest that Can- ada can expect to have the slightest control over American foreign policy in the Far East or anywhere else. That would be most unrealistic. It is not unreasonable to suggest, how- dver, that American officials take their Canadian counterparts into a greater measure of confidence than has been the case hitherto, while a crisis is brewing, without waiting for it to develop to the brink of war.

Canada has given good leader- ship—or at least good counsel, which amounts to about the same thing—in the United Nations on more than one occasion when big issues were under consideration. It is possible that she could help United States’ negotia- tions preceding great decisions. This might not materially affect the de- cisions themselves; but at least it

would be a satisfaction to know that -

Canada was regarded as a realpart- ner of the United States in diplomacy as well as in military defence.

"A Source or Strength“

Canadian agriculture in 1958 maintained stability in the face of many uncertainties. and was “un- doubtedly a source of strength in a year of uncertainty for the Canadian economy as a whole," according to the Canadian Bank of Commerce.

In a review of agriculture for 1958, the Bank’s Commercial Letter says that despite locally adverse conditions, the Canadian agricultural community had a reasonably success- ful year. For 1959, it foresees mar- kets for agriculture. “no more un- favorable than those of the last twelve months."

The outlook for products intend- ed mainly for the domestic market appears generally good, the Letter states, as population continues to in- crease, and a high level of labor in- come seems likely to be maintained Export market prospects, however, are. less clear. The flow of cattle t the US. may be expected to continue until either demand falls off or the number of animals for export be- comes negligible. On both counts, it appears unlikely that 1959 will prove to be a repetition of 1958 in terms of numbers exported.

Overseas demand for wheat also cannot be clearly foreseen at this time. the Letter continues. although official expectations are that last year's sales of over 300 million bush- els in foreign markets will be repeat- ed in 1958-59. The continuation of a high level of livestock marketings. both for export and the home mar- ket, was a factor of major impor- tance to the agricultural industry throughout 1958. Up to November 22, some 493.000 head of cattle had moved into export channels, compar- ed to 208,000 last year, a situation which did much to sustain western {aim cash income.

High production levels on the

prairies were mainly responmble for increased hog marketing during the latter hqu of the year. The Letter notes also that turkey marketings in- creased by 30 per cent in the first eight months of the year over the same period in 1957. showing “grow— ing importance of turkeys in Can- adian agriculture”. Estimated production of winter wheat, oats for grain, barley, flax- seed, mixed grains, soybeans and root crops is greater‘than that of last year. Estimated total wheat crop was 368.7 million bushels com- pared‘to 370.5 in 1957.

The outlook for the dairy indus‘ try remains good. A further rise in productivity per cow occurred dur- ing the year, as the milk yield again rose slightly despite the continued decline in the number of dairy cows on farms.

The letter concludes with a sur- vey of oilseed crops in Canada which,

it says,,“are yearly becoming more

popular with Canadian farmers”. The experience of recent years has shown that Canadian agriculture can play its part in supplying world de- mand, while Canadian industry it- self provides a market for both the raw material and its many products.

He Knew The. Way

' A communication from Sir Leo- nard Outerbridge, former Lieuten- ant-Governor of Newfoundland, to the St. John’siDai‘ly News is so re— vealing in its central content that we are taking the liberty of repro- ducing it for the benefit of our read- ers. .

Sir Leonard writes: “In a letter I received recently from Glasgow, Scotland, this appears: ‘We are again today enveloped in peasoup fog such as I haven’t seen since we came to

_ Glasgow. An Italian friend of mine

told me yesterday that in the smog earlier this week, her schoolboy son Paul, aged 16, had an unusual experi ence. His parents live a few miles cm of Glasgow in a part where the fog was thickest. All trains! and buse:

'had stopped and people left theii

cars anywhere. Paul very soon goi lost and. bumped into a man who ask ed if he could help him. On being in- formed by Paul where he lived, the man said he knew the way. They

walked together for about an hour

until they came to a building a short way from his home which Paul re- cognized. Paul then thanked the man and said he could manage the rest of the way alone. The stranger replied, It has been a pleasure to help you. I can so seldom help anyone, because I am blind. Paul was quite overwhelm ed and as the man vanished in the fog, he couldn’t thank him further’."

EDITORIAL, NOTES

A St. John's, Newfoundland, firm did something unusual in the mattei of distributing money this Christ mas. Instead of giving its customer: individual gifts as in other years, 11 gave $1,000 to the Society for Re tarded Children. What makes it un usual is that giving gifts to custom ers is not a general practice. In fact this is the first time we have been of it.

THE NEW SESSION

Mr. Pearson’s

The new session of Parliament

which opens on Jan. 15 will be of decisive importance to the Hon. Lester Pearson and to Her Majesty’s Loyal Opposition, which he leads.

During the last session, the Li- berals were accused. and not without some justification, of pro- viding weak and ineffective op- position. And in ’act. they appear- ed frequently too unassertive and poorly organized, with too much of the load borne by too few shoulders.

But opposition parties rarely make much of a showing in Par- liament in the session immedia— tely following a disastrous poli- tical defeat. One reason is that the Opposition is still trying to regnoup its shattered political forces. And another is that the Government, at that early stage, has a ready and effective reply to make to any Opposition show of force; the fresh mandate that it has received from the elector- ate.

But by the time that the second post - election sessionlstarts, the Opposition should be starting to roll. By that time, some of the shiny finish is wearing off th e Government's new mandate. And if the Opposition hasn't had sufficient time to collect its wits and make use of them, it's going to find the going very heavy. ANOTHER REASON

The Liberals have, in addition, another reason for making the

Arthur Blaker in the Montreal Gazette

Opportunity

best possible display.

The new party to be formed by the joint efforts of the CCF an dthe Canadian Labor Con- gress will be putting in an ap- pearance by 1960 or thereabouts. Well - heeled by any standards, It will give the Liberals much‘ tough- er competition fior No. 2 position in [the national political system than the existing CCF party has ever been able to muster with its shoe - string financial backing. Biggest shot in the arm that the new party could receive when it does emerge, is convincing evi- dence th a t the Liberals a r e thmugh as a major political force.

Beginning with this coming ’ses— sion, Mr. Pearson is expected to try to prove beyond any rea- sonable doubt—to some of his own colleagues among other in. terested groups and individ u a I s that he hasn’t been miscast in the role of the Leader of the Op- position and that he can dis- charge these new and different responsibilities quite as well as he did those associated with his previous post as Secretary of State for External Affairs. Which, it might be added; will take some doing. ‘

LOTS OF AMMUNITION

Certainly, Mri‘. Pearson and the Liberals will not be handicapped by any shortage of ammunition. In fact, the available supply con- stitutes an embarrassment of riches from which it may be dif-

ficult to make a selection.

The Government is still strug- gling, and without too much suc- cess, to damp down.inflation at one and the same time that it is spurring on the economy. The present situation of inflation-cum- reces'sion should be an Opposi— tion’s dream. Almost any eme~ dial action that the Go-ver ,ment can take can probably be stown to have been the wrong t, ing, done at the wrong time, in the wrong way, for a wide variety of plausible reasons.

Mounting winter unemployment figures should give the Opposi- tion plenty to talk about.

NEXT BUDGET

And Finance Minister Donald Fleming’s next budget can scarc- ely fail to provide the Liberals (and the handful of CCF’ei-s) with a nabundance of fascinat- ing new material. The Govern- ment will be wide open to at- tack if it raises taxes. cuts tax- es or leaves them strictly alone. It looks like a rough year for Mr. Fleming, as it would be for anyone who happened to hold his portfolio.

And then there‘s the genuine, Grade-A air defence dilemma in. volving the fate of the CF-105 Arrow. Although here, Mr. Pear- ‘son may have eased things for the Government a little by inti- mating as he did not long ago that the Government might have done beter to have jun-ked Ar- row a year ago. rather‘than wait until last fall. Mir. Pearson must. of course be fully prepared to meet Government counter--charg— es that the fabulously expensive Arrow project shouldn't have been undertaken on a sky-is-the- limit basis by the previous gov- ernment in the first place.

‘ Bee Sting Moy THelp Rheumatism

,By Herman N. Bundt‘scn, NLD.

ABOUT 11,000.00 Americans suffer from arthritis. rheumatism ior one of the other rheumatic diseases.

C a n c c s a r e (\\‘(‘l'\\'IlCIllll.Ig that not a single one of them is a beekeeper!

Now you may snicker at this fact. but it has real medical significance. For centuries the general public has attributed the virtual immunity of bcckecpers from arthritis and rheumatism to the repeated stings of bees.

PREVENTION AND CURE

Ancient physicians, and even some during much more recent times. believed that the stings of! bees helped prevent arthritis and rheumatism and helped cure them after they had developed.

Apparently their patients com- plained of the technique, hoWever for treating persons with bee stings isn’t practiced any more. At least I hope it isn’t!

Yet the beneficial factor of the‘ bee sting is readily available. Not only has bee venom been is- olated and purified, it even has been standardized.

STUDIED VALUE

Dr. Joseph Broadman. who has made quite a study of the value of bee venom in treating rheumatism and arthritis. re- ported in a recent issue of “Gen— eral Practice” that tens of thous~ ands of persons have been treat- ed with this method without any sideheflfects. complications or fatalities. ,

He says those who have had experience with bee venom praise it very highly. And he says that use‘of bee venom in such cases “merits the careful considera- tion of the general practitioner.’ WON'T CURE EVERYBODY

Now Dr. Broadman. who has had scientific papers published by numerous medical journals. doesn’t claim that this form of treatment will cure all patients. However, he does feel that bee venom will give “large numbers’ of rheumatic and arthritic pa- tients “substantial relief."

Many‘ early cases, he adds, will obtain permanent _relief. al— though others will get only par- tial results. Some. of c0urse. will get no benefit at all.

The simplicity iof the use of bee venom, Dr. Broadman says, “lends itself to the practice of general practitioners everywhere. QUESTION AND ANSWER

C..W.F.: When a dilatation and curettage is done for diagnostic purposes what will it reveal?

Will is reveal venereal disease of long duration and cancer?

Answer: Diagnostic currettage is done to obtain tissue from the lining of the uterus for micros- copic examination. It may reveal evidence of tumor or cancer. re- cent pregnancy, and the mucus membrane changes associated with the menstrual cycle or the menopause. .

It usually does not yield evi- dence of venereal infection. 1
