T’Ours,lToo, Is The Loss
Dane I". Crosby. provincuil news editor of The Guardian, who died with shocking suddenness yester- day at the age of 13. was well-known and respected in the field of journal- ism throughout the Maritimcs. Among his island associates he was well-loved.
It was not just his work. but love of that work and love of the Island. that enriched his knowledge of this province and its affairs be yond anything usual among even those who have. spent their whole lives here. This was his adopted home——he joined The Guardian al- most five. years ago—but be made the adoption both fervent. and com- plete
in both his thinking and his feelings Dane Crosby became an Islander and showed it continuously not only as an editor but as the head of a lively family and in the whole pattern of his interests Just two weeks ago he moved with his family into a new home and was finding great happiness in at last being “reallv settled".
He had. too. a. talent for happi- ness. It, was usual for him. while with his associates. to share his pleasures and the good things he could say of others. but unheard of for him to mention any of the burdens he was carrying or to ex- press any unfriendly judgments.
Even among those. who worked closest with him he never allowed it. to become known that he Suffer- ed from the serious heart condition which cost his life. even though he was aware of it. or that a serious accident in childhood had left severe physical consequences which he carried without complaint through the Whole of his adulthood.
it. is out of real affectioii——.ol.1t of fresh memories of a fine spirit. 1 fine craftsman. a fine associate and friend—and in behalf of all those with whom Dane ('rosby worked than The Guardian extends its Sympathy to ‘.\Irs. Crosby. and all who were close to him.
Ours, too. is the loss.
Legislation Approved
There. was an honest division of opinion in the Legislature over the hill to control the distribution and use of pesticides and poisonous top killing sprays. It passed second reading on Friday. over the op- position of four Liberals and one Conservative who made it clear that they were concerned as much as their colleagues about the misuse of such poisons. but had fears also that individual freedom was being unduly restncted in this case.
Opposition Leader .‘iatheSon warned that the legislation may be in conflict with section 0‘2 of the British North America Act which deals. among other things. with property and civil rights. it is our understanding of this section that it gives exclusive powers to pro- vincial legisiatures to make laws with respect, to such rights in the province: but if there is danger of running into a constitutional road- block here. it would certainly he ad- Visable to give further Consideration to the matter.
Otherwise we are of the opinion that. the measure is a good one. that it. is needed as a protection against the danger of poisonous sprays to wildlife. to livestock and even to human life, and that. in the long run, it will give added prestige to the reputation our potato in-

Not. that there is "news" in the. fact that a Prince Edward Island Legislature would respond in this way to a resolution of this kind.

Making The Headlines
News mcdia 'n (‘anada hav’e been charged with placing undue emphasis on the words and activi- ties of the separatists in the province of Quebec. The clml'EP was made by Hon. Yvon DOWN". a minister with- out portfolio in the Liberal govern- ment at Ottawa. who complained that news treatment has tended to create disunitv in the Country at a time when all had an obligation to foster unity. Separatists in Quebec were in a minority. he. pointed out. inferring that the view of the ma- jority on the question was bcing overlooked.
The minister did not even sug- gest censorship in his remarks. Nevertheless. as the Fort William Times-Journal points out. it is most difficult to draw a. line between censorship and editing of news to serve a specific purpose. The mo— ment, the blue pencil is applied to straight reporting of public state- ments and events. injury is inflict- ed on the. integrity of new cover- age. Editors become a party to an act of deceiving the public by keep- ing the truth hidden.
When arms are stolen from ar- mouries. bombs are tossed at. public buildings. an individual casts a strong hint that the Queen may suf— fer harm if she visits Quebec. and when a. minister of the Quebec pro- vincial government takes a half- step towards the views of separat- ists. trustees of free information dare not ignore the facts or sup- press them.
Our Fort, William contemporary puts forward a very good suggestion in this regard. If Mr. Tlupuis. it says. or any others with the same racial strains within the. province of Quebec wish to correct news treatment, of separatist activities. they have. an easy way to do it They can organize mass meetings throughout the province. at which representatives of the majority lustily repudiate the actions and words of the small minority. and fervently reaffirm their loyalty to (Tanada as a whole. The. intensive coverage and the headlines which would be given to such events would strongly overshadow the attention given to fihaput and his clique. and

j Some Facts About Fever

Tempera- turcs seldom go highcr than 104 degrees F. but the height is not necessarily an index of the saw only of the illness. 11 is true that ‘ few survive readings over 109 degrees but such temperatures ‘ are rare.
Fever lasting less than tw a weeks usually stems from a simple respiratory or other tn fcction. Should it persist. we suspect a more serious disorder such as tuberculosis, rheumatic fever. rheumatoid arthritis. cau-

DISPARITY 1N GROWTH
Despite the progress of fill have-not nations. the stark fact. remains that the rich tend to ‘ get richer and the poor. poorer. ‘ That's because demand is in- ,crcasing for the manufactured lproducts of the industrial coun- .trics which also have attained a high degree of self-sufficiency ‘ in raw materials. or substitutes, and agriculture.
Meanwhile. exports of prl- mary commodities—the prod- ucts of the poorer countries—- are expanding at a relatively slow rate. Those Countries have difficulty in getting enough ‘nioney to manufactured products and coping with their dcbts. .\ price collapse for one product in one year can mean :iisasler for a particular coun‘ ry. 1i In the array of "developed" 'and developing countries Can-
