FRIDAY. DEC. 2. 1955

Umoriunale

The most cheerful piece of news - i to come out of Moscow since the now defunct "Geneva Spirit" began its brief journey across the world is that, under certain conditions, the Soviet Union would stop ex- ploding hydrogen bombs. The chief condition attached to the proposal is that the United States will undertake to follow suit. The latest word from Secretary of State Dulles is that the United States will want more assurance of the sincerity of the Soviet proposal before deciding to match it, and that, as a matter of fact, the Un- ited States has been considering the wisdom of such a step for sev- eral months. It is easy to see why Mr. Dulles has adopted a guarded, wait-and-see attitude on the Soviet announcement. He has learned by experience that any Soviet pro- posal, having for its ostensible ob- jective the softening of internation- al tension, must be checked for pos- sible flaws. It is not so clear, how- over, why such an important mat- ter as consideration of the banning of hydrogen explosions, which Mr. Dulles says has been going on in Washington for several months, had not been announced long be- fore this. Whatever the reason for the delay, the West has permitted the Soviet Union the advantage of a propaganda weapon of major im- portance. Whether the Soviet pro- posal ls sincere or not, its sponsom are bound to say that it took the West unawares; and what that will . mean to the people of India, Japan, and other countries where Soviet propagandists are hard at work can readily be imagined.

And it is not without signifi- cance that the Moscow announce- ment comes at a time when Rus- sian leaders are touring India in a well planned effort to persuade Prime Minister Nehru that Russia, and not the Western alliance is the worldls best hope for peace.

The Butler Sale

It was inevitable that controv- -. srsy should arise over the sale, at a loss, of approximately eight million pounds of surplus Canadian buttcr to East Germany, just as similar differences of opinion were express- ed a year ago when a much smaller amount was sent to Czechoslovakia,

' that question. Selling a few million

.- ....nng." says The Journal, "is why this bargain butter was not made availablesat home, either to low-income families or to institu- tions. There is no easy answer to

pounds of cheap butter in a market that uses over 3(1) million pounds yearly poses many problems. To mark it lstorage butter' and offer it at lower than fresh butter prices is not as easy as it sounds. The mechanics of distribution alone are considerable.

”And to suggest, as some have, that all storage butter should be thrown on the market to find its own price level in competition with substitutes involves something hard- ly fair to producers. Indeed it could well mean higher than present prices to consumers after the sur- plus was picked up. The present price of butterfat at the farm is al- ready so low that great numbers of producers are likely to go out of that type of dairying should returns further decrease.

”A bad feature of deals such as these sales to Communist countries is that no permanent new markets. are opened and that the butter mar- ket here is not helped to any de- gree. They do however help get the Government out of a mess."

Al Rai Ghat

We have been looking at a num- ber of pictures showing the Rus- sian leaders, Premier Bulganin and Communist Party head Khrush- chev, at various places in their In- dian journey. One of these pictures stands out prominently and, in a sense, pathetically. It shows the two visitors removing their shoes. preparatory to standing before the shrine known as Raj Ghat where the body of Mohandes K. Ghandi was cremated after his assassin- ation in 1948.

There was nothing extraordin- ary about the pilgrimage itself, nor yet about the little ceremony that went with it. Most visitors from abroad take time off from political and economic discussions to honour the great Indian leader and patriot in that simple, reverend way. What is extraordinary is that the Rus- sians looked as if they were sincere in what they were doilng, almost as if they had been waiting eagerly for the moment when they might do homage to a man whose philo- sophy of life, with peace and good- will at its centre, was almost the

exact antithesis of Soviet Commun- ism, at the centre of which-if one may judge from the evidence-are violence and hate.

If the Russians were, in fact, sincere in their shoe-removing ceremony, their thinking certainly has changed drastically in recent months. Only a year ago, the Great Soviet Encyclopedia which, like all other Soviet periodicals, reflects the views of the Kremlin, referred to Ghandi as "a reactionary who only ' pretended to be asupporter of In-

another Communist State. As the Ottawa Journal points out, however, such losses were " forseen and provided for by Parlia- ment after the war when the Agri- cultural Prices Support Act was passed as compensation for farm- ers who accepted rigid price restric- tions during the war. A fund of S200

- million was provided, and surpris- ingly little has been used.

Many other industries outside the farm field receive support or protection which costs either the

. 'g treasury direct or Canadian con- sumers through tariffs large sums

-of money annually. For instance we

millions every year, the amount. in ,?s.ny one year being more than the jdairy industry receives.

Perhaps, how- ever, the change is more apparent than real, in which case the new approach to honour is merely an- other luring artifice to attract In- dian friendship which, for one reas- on or another, the Russians appear to covet more earnestly nclw than at any time in the past.

Gambling With Hospitals-I

Winnipeg Free Press

The Union of Manitoba Municip- alities has approved by a vote of 109 to 71 - and against spirited opposition - a resolution endorsing legal lotteries in aid of hospitals. While a number of the individual contributions to the debate were of the quality which one expects from so responsible an .. mbly. the discussion as a whole suffered from one obvious and serious de- fect. it was not based upon pre- paratory studies which might have eliminated a number of largely irrelevant considerations. reducing the issue to its essentials and en- abling the Union to go beyond a snap verdict to a considered de- cision.

It is astonishing that an air of novelty continues to surround this hardy perennial. Whatever else a state lottery may be, it is certainly no bold experiment on the social frontier. The record goes back to Augustus and Nero. In Britain the first lottery was established .in 1569 under Queen Elizabeth I: in America, lotteries were introd- uced in the 17th century and its is interesting to observe that they were intended by legislators to ben- efit schools and public works. But after three centuries of unhappy, and sometimes disastrous exper- iences - the story of the Louis- Ians state lottery is appalling even by the standards of Reconstruction days in the Deep South - they were abandoned in both Britain and North America-

ECONOMIC REASONS ,

No one can suggest, therefore. that there is any lack of material on which to base a serious study of the economic merits and de- merits - and the social effects -. of state lotteries. One certain re- sult of such an investigation would be to destroy thc idea that the ban on lotterics in Canada, as some dclegates appeared to believe. re- ,presents a quaint survival of the Puritan spirit. It would show in- stead that lotierics appeared when Puritanlsm was gathering strength in both halves of the English-speak my world and that they were om. lawed in periods which were con- spicuous, if anything, for moral laxity. This suggests that there are very strong economic reasons gambling as a basis of financial policy.

Hospitals today are considcrlzd a proper and extremely inmm-mm concern of governments at the var. ious levels. Lotteries are advoc- ated as an easy means of relieving them of pressing financial pru- lems. But in an economic sense. I lottery is the most L1,. 3... way

The question is primarily econ- omic and political and there is no necessity of arguing it upon moral grounds. But if a moral issue is to be debated, it is important that it should be properly stated. A state lottery does not mean simply that a government permits it citizens to indulge in games of chance. It means that the government con- cerned becomes the sponsor of those games and an interested par- ty to the tune of many millions. This may be moral or not, accord- ing to the point of view. But it certainly has one highly important political consequence. It relieves the government of any sense of

urgency in hospital matters.

PREPARING THE NURSERY FOR BABY'S HOMECOMING

Getting the nursery ready for that new baby? Then let me give you a few tips about where it should be located and what fur- nishings it should contain.

Every baby should have a room of his own. Everyone concerned will be able to sleep better if he has.

-The nursery should be located in a quiet part of the house where it will get direct sunshine for at least several hours of the day. Make sure the windows can be opened easily so it can be well aired.

if you have only one bedroom. screen off one corner for the nur- sery. Or put the baby to sleep in the bedroom in the early eva- ning. Then. before you retire. air the living room thoroughly and move the baby there. This leaves the bedroom for you and gives the baby his own sleeping room. too.

USE WASIIABLE BUGS

-Floors should be smooth. Wash- able rugs may be used in the nur- sery. but avoid heavy rugs or car- pets. All walls, of course, must be clean and smooth.

if there are any insects about, keep the windows screened. Shades or blinds are essential to darken the room for sleeping during day- light hours.

Donlt use any heavy drapes or curtains or upholstered furniture. They catch dust and are difficult to clean. Use plain white sash curtains which can be launde ed often.

The bed or crib and all other funniture should be painted with lead-free paint because sooner or later ,the little tyke is going to start chewing on them.

Place the bed against an inside wall opposite the windows and away from a radiator or heating vent. 2

A simple chest of drawers will also be needed. You'll be sur- prised at the amount of clothes a litle baby acquires.

A bathinet or firm table also is a handy piece of furniture. espe- cially when cbauging diapers. A comfortable chair for mother-will be needed. too. A wall thermom- eter for checking the room temp- erature should be placed on s lev- cl with the crib.

And that just about does it. Outside of a few pictures or wall decorations. you won't want any- thing else in the nursery.

QUESTION AND ANSWER

it is s tragic reflection on the alleged udvaucemeut of civiliza- tion that more than 600 patients in New Bmnswick's mental hos- pitals have in the past received no Christmas presents.
