Race Against Time In West Indies, Gov.-Gen. Reports

OTTAWA (CP) —— A dynamic birthrate has forced the Federa- tion of The West Indies into a “race against time," Lord Hailes, governor~general of the 10-island federation, 'said Tuesday in a luncheon address.

Lord Hailes, here on an official visit, said the problem of West Indies development has to be viewed against the background of a “surging increase” in popula- tion.

“The spectres of unemployment and poverty are never absent from the West Indian scene."

He hinted that the federation’s constitution will need revision in “due course.” The federal govern- ment based in Trinidad had only modest revenue a nd limited authority, all “residual powers” falling to unit governments.

Lord Hailes was addressing the Canadian Club of Ottawa. COMPARES T0 CANADA

Lord Hailes outlined the federa- tion’s difficulties — its scattered populations, lack of communica- tions and the fact that six of the 10 islands are dependent on Brit- ish government aid.

In a few years, the West Indies was expected to become a fully independent member of the Com- monwealth. It would occupy a ‘ distinguished and v a 1 u a b l e place" at the family table.

Discussing Canada-West Indies links, Lord Hailes stressed the predominant place of trade. He recalled that late in the 17th cen- tury, the intendant Talon. a Ca- nadian civil servant, made the happy discovery that the people of the sugar islands liked dried codfish a nd Maritimers liked sugar, molasses and rum, provid- ing a basic for reciprocal trade.

CBC Not Under Lord’s Day

Act. Is Counsel

OTTAWA lCl’l—Counsel for the CBC argued before the Supreme

Court of Canada Tuesday that the publicly—owned corporation is not subject to the Lord's Day Act. The argument of W. B. Willis- ton of Toronto is the whole basis for asking the Supreme Court to upset in judgment of the Ontario courts that the CBC must stand rial on charges of violating the act by broadcasting on Sunday.

The charge was laid in Toronto, where the CBC operates one tele- vision station and two radio out- lets, on a complaint by the To. ronto Telegram.

The Telegram, which faces a similar charge after starting pub. lication of Sunday editions March 17, 1957, also laid similar com- plaints again two other Toronto dailies—The Star and The Globe and Mail — and privately-owned radio station CKEY.

Trial of the four other cases has been postponed until the Su- preme Court rules on the CBC‘s claim that it is not subject to the

Argument

Lord's Day Act because it is not specifically named in it. NOMINAL FINE

The fine for violating .he act may range between $1 and $40.

The Telegram discontinued itsi Sunday edition July 19, 1957. The

Star gathers news but does not publish on Sunday and the Globe‘s first Monday morning edition is available for sale Sunday eve- nings.

Mr. Williston submlttcd that the CBC is an agent of the Crown. 3 claim that is not contested by the Onario attorney—general who op« poses the CBC’s claim of exemp- tion.

The parties are in dispute over the CBC’s claim that as an agent of the Crown, whose broadcast- ing operations are that of the Crown, it is exempt from the pro- visions of the Lord's Day Act.

Hearing the appeal are Justices Robert Taschereau, I. C. Rand. C. H. Locke, J. R. Cartwright, Gerald Fauteux, Louglas Abbott and Wilfred Judson.

The hearing continues today.

This “close relationship” ncw was to be strengthened by joint con- sultations among the United King- dom, Canada and West Indies governments, in accordance with decisions taken at the Sept. 15-26 Commonwealth economic confer- ence in Montreal.

Expressing thanks for Canada's five-year, $10,000,000 program of aid to the West Indies. Lord Hailes disclosed the federation is asking Canada for two experts to advise on broadcasting and tele- vision services.

Canada’s gift under the aid pro- gram of two ships for the inter- island service was of “supreme importance.” The islands knew too little of one another. In a six- week tour, Lord Hailes said, he had seen more of the federation than the vast majority of West, Indians. 3

The governor-general opened on ' a personal note, saying that his, wife Lady .Hailes is a great-3 granddaughter of Lord Durham. who wrote the historic report of 1839 paving the way for respon- sible government in Canada.

Canada C-IoSer To Having Imports And Exports Balance

By HAROLD MORRISON Canadian Press Staff Writer OTTAWA (CFO—Perhaps one of

the most significant develop- ments on the foreign trade front is that while Canada’s overall rade total has shrunk, she ap- pears to be edging closer to a balance between imports and ex- ports.

In other words, she may be moving closer to paying her way, financing her smaller imports with continuing strength in ex- ports, relying less on the need of foreign capital to cover the tradi- tional deficit and thus‘“easing her debt load to foreign investors.

Of course this is open to argu- ment. Some economists argue it is a good thing for Canada to cut down the “mortgage” on her fu- ture. Others say the smaller flow

of foreign capital is slowing down Canada‘s d e v e lopthent, putting the brakes on the economy and providing fewer opportunities for Canadian workers.

HAS DECLINED

Whatever the View, the fact is that the deficit or the excess of imports over exports has de- clined, dropping to $173,700.000 in the first eight months of 1958, compared with an a b n o r m a1 $638,200.000 for the corresponding period last year.

Tie full deficit for 1957 was $639,000.000, down from the all- time high of $842,300,000 in 1956. These were huge deficits com- pared to those of $361,100.000 in 1955 and $146,300.00() in 1954.

But they occurred during per- iods of unprecedented prosperity and almost full employment. The

The argument has in fact been, made that Canada finds herself“

However. while imports have declined this year, exports on the who' have r e m a i n e d fairly strong. Shipments in the first eight months of 1958 amour.’.d ') $3.218.900.000, compared with 33,- 217,100,000 last year.

Imports in that period dropped to $3,392,600.000 from $3,855,300,— 000.

Canada’s traditional large def- icit in trade with the United| States has n . r r 0 we d sharply while her traditional surplus in trade with Britain has increased.

Canada's exports to the U. S. in the eight months slipped only slightly to $1,859.200,000 from $1,- 922,900.000 while her purchases from the U. S. were chopped more drastically to $2,362,600,000 from $2,787,500,000.

U. S. DEFICIT DECLINES

The Canadian deficit in Ameri- can trade declined to $503,400,000 from $864,600,000.

At the same time, Canadian exports to the U. K. rose to $507,400,000 from $480,200,000 while imports eased slightly to $351,100,000 from $352.800,0.

The result of this was that Can ada’s trade surplus with the U. K. rose to $156,30,000 from $127,- 400.000.

Canada traditionally has been a debtor country. That is, she us- ually imports more capital than she exports. But the Gordon econ— omic commission predicted that perhaps in a quarterdcentury she may become a creditor like Brit- ain, exporting more capital than she imports.

It could possibly happen a lot sooner.

SEEKS PROMPT ACTION

SCHENECT‘ADY, N.Y. (\AP)—~ Senator Jacob K. Javits, New York Republican, said Tuesday he is calling on President Eisen- hower for an immediate meeting of state governors to consider the

series of bombings of Jewish cen- ‘

trcs in the U.S. “This situation requires immediate action by all state and federal law-enforcing agencies," Javitts said.

the scenes, a new Canadian poli- tical party is gradually taking sha 9.

Basically. it will be a linkjup of the CCF and the Canadian Labor Congress but its foundcsst hope that it will also speak for, the entire Canadian labor mow- mcnt, farm groups and independ- ents who feel they cannot sun- port the Progressive Conserva- tives, Liberals or Social Cred.t.

The new movement, which will not come into formal being unul~ 1960 at the earliest. grew out or the «CCF‘s setback in the last gen- eral election and labor's feeling that its political action must amount to more than endorsation of the CCF.

The conventions of the 1.900. 000 - member Canadian Labor Congress and the CCIF. earlier this year passed resolutions fa— voring a political alibnment be- tween the two groups.

JOINT MEETING

A joint committee of 18 per- sons — nine from the CLC and nine from the CCF — has smcc een meeting to discuss estab- IIshment of a new political party and making arrangements for discussions with other groups.

This committee has produced a discussion manual due to go to the printers soon. It will be made public and circulated 'hrough the trade unions and CCF ranks and sent to other ill- tcrested parties as a basis for wide discussion.

The committee is seeking ideas and suggestions and from them will prepare the structure and platform of the new party to be
