l7AGE c ssrunpnv. _J"l.I_Li" 2i} 1%. Tul, Tut, Mr. Green!

We agree wholeheartedly with

Mr. Sidney Green, chairman of the

Charlottetown Water Commission, that a combined effort is needed to

-- -clean up the water pollution prob-

lem in the Charlottetown area. We

' cannot say as much for the remarks ‘ attributed to him at a meeting on

"Thursday, in which he seemed to regard this whole question as a piece of propaganda “dreamed up" by the press. In making such a ltatement he must have known that he was talking urrant nonsense.

At the meeting referred to, Mr. Green gave the impression that he didn’t think much of the tests the provincial health authorities have been carrying out in Charlottetown water areas. He had been swimming in one of these areas for the past thirty years and didn't believe the water is any more contaminated now than it was in the past. He is. of course, perfectly entitled to his opinion. The fact that It conflicts with the health authorities’ findings is beside the point insofar as his democratic right to think and say what he likes is concerned. But he has no right to garble facts.

What is this “red herring" which he implied the press was trotting out at this time for its own pur- poses? All that the press did was publicize the warnings of the health officialls and underline tiheitr im- portance. Does he object to that? Of is It the health officials, really, that he is trying, through the press, to get at? For our part we regard It as gratifying that, as a. result of press publicity, this matter is being discussed openly by civic authorities for the first time.

The duty of the press now, as we see it, will be to keep the public from relaxing into the apathy it showed before the water test s came to light. until a. full survey of the problem can be made and reported on. If we can get Mr. Green's co- operation in doing this it will help a lot. If not, we shall just have to atruggle along without him.

Law And Precedent Dr. Eugene Forsey has entered the field against Hon. Paul Martin in the latter’s contention that the

7 Diefenbaker Government, with five

members Who have been repudiated by the voters, is not legally en- rt,-itled. to govern without reference to Parliament or to impose taxation without obtaining prior approval from Parliament. In a lengthy letter in The Ot- tam Journal, Dr. Forsey says it would be interesting to know who Mr. Martin's "legal authorities” are. They certainly cannot be auth- critics on constitutional law and “practice, or constitutional theory. For if they were, they would be aware of what happened in 1925- M, under the Mackenzie King re-

During that period. Mr. King '”c.i_-i-lad on with a cabinet of which

As hr not meeting Parliament immediately, the only "law” applic- able in this case would appear to be a section in the British North America Act, which provides that “tweve months shall not intervene between the last sitting of the Par- liament in one session and its first sitting in the next session.” This would allow the Government to put off calling Pariament till April 17, 1963.

There are, Dr. Forsey concedes, all sorts of things which are per- fectly legal but would be grossly unconstitutional. If Mr. Dicfenbaker put off the meeting of Parliament till April. 1963, he would certainly be guilty of ii flagrant breach of constitutional propriety. of the cus-- toms. the iisalro, the “conventions? of the Constitution. So long a post- ponement would be contrary to all precedent. Thule is, on the other hand. no precedent which would oblige him to summon Parliament at any particular time.

A government which ‘comes out of an election in a minority, and stays in office, ought certainly to summon Parliament at the earliest moment. This Dr. Forsey concedes Legal obligation. however. is another thing; and it does not appear to exist in this case.

Trouble In Peru

Peru has become the second I.atin-American country in four months to witness a revocation of electoral results by military pres- sure. In Argentina the military forces ref used to recognize the March 18 congres-sional election re- turns in which the Peronist candi- dates made sweeping gains. None of the victors has been permitted to take office, and President Frondizi has been forced out of office, to be replaced by a provisional president. In Peru, on July 18, the Peruvian military swooped down with armor- ed forces into Lima and arrested President Prado, who had refused to submit to military demands that he annul the June 10 presidential election.

In both Argentina and Peru the United States had indicated its dis- tinct displeasure at the prospect of military intervention, and has not been remotely responsible for these domestic upheavals. Yet it appears likely that Communist propaganda will be charging Washington with pressurizing or supporting interven- tion ofthe military forces in these two countries, and many Latin Americans may be tempted to be- lieve them.

Washington has taken action now, however, which it will be dif- ficult to misconstrue. It has an- nounced suspension of relations with Peru and also brought a halt in U.S. Alliance for Progress avid which currently is running at $75,000,000 a year.

Yesterday's news carried reports of street clashes in Lima and wide- spread strikes in the interior of the country. The military junta may be able to deal with these problems more effectively than with the cut- ting off of United States aid and the barrage of foreign criticism it is receiving. The prospects are that it may install a figurehead civilian president, as the military did in Argentina. This of course would be a travesty on democracy, but it is about all the Peruvians are likely to get of that precious commodity in the near future.

EDITORIAL NOTES . “It is entirely appropriate." comments The Financial Post, “that the mediator appointed to the Saskatchewan doctors now is a psy- chiatrist. Never has there been a public issue which has so obviously needed the ministration of a dealer in brain and nerve disorders.” 0 I U

The hope of U.S. Agriculture Secretary Freeman to extend mar- keting orders to a wide range of farm products now in oversupply has suffered another blow. He has fall- ed, by a considerable margin, to get the necessary two-thirds vote among turkey producers to establish con- trols on the number of birds that can be marketed. The turkey ref- arandum was looked upon as is test of American farmers’ willingness to accept tight market quotas to bring higher prices. Whetherthe vote ac curately reflects prevailing f ll r in opinion, however, is hard to say. The turkey referendum was among

BRITISH COMMENTARY

Tariffs And The Common Market

United Kingdom Ialonnattoa service

One of the commonest mis- conceptions outside Europe oi the European Common Market is to regard it primar".y as 3 protectionist device to shelter Europe's industries from world competition. That such a view should have got about is in a way quite understandable. For it is on the aspect which most immediately affected it - that is the Common External Tariffs- upcn which the attention of the outside world has n a t u r ally tended to concentrate.

Nevertheless the image of the Community which has arisen in this way is a completely false one. T regard the EEC as merely the Instrument of an ag- gressive and reactionary trad- ing policy on the part of a group of European states - or lud even to regard it as a body which is primarily concerned with international trade at all- Is totally to misconcelva its nature.

The aim of the founders of the Community was much gran- der llian this. They sought more than just a readjustment of their trading relations with one ano- ther aud with ‘the outside world. Their aim was to achieve a complete merger between the separale economies of member

SET A GOOD EXAMPLE

Sir. -— I believe a large major- ity of Canadians are ready to admit that we are living in a new age; call it the atomic age or whatever you like. It has crept in upon us almost imper- ceptibly. It is ii-eighted with tre- mendous possibilities. It is also laden with many grave danger: to mankind. and to the world in general.

Our religious. social and poll- tical fabric is undergoing a change. Are we ready to meet this change? That is a debut- able question. If we are not. ready, we should prepare our selves for the inevitable. We should not y prepare our- selves; we should also prepare those who are following our loot- steps. And that takes us into the realm of the family life.

Here re a grave ra- sponslhlllty rests upon the par- ents. Fol-‘we must remember

- they are more likely to {allow a bad example rather than a good one: unless their young minds are trained to I

to ones.

Just recently It was reported III the press. that a 13 year old girl attempted to hold up a

states by removing not only its- cal barriers on the movement of goods within the Community, but also barriers of all kinds on the free movement of people, things and money.

IN HARMONY

It is obvious that in a com- bination of this kind member states must conduct every as- pect oi’ their economic policy in complete harmony with on e another: and In this policy of overall economic harmonisation the co-ordination tariff policy towards the outside world has its necessary place.

In establishing Its Common External Tariffs the EEC is do- ing no more than bringing the original duties which its mem- bers lmposed on imports into line ensuring for instance that the French tariff on motor car: is no higher and no lower than the German by197o when the changes will be complete. It is doing this generally by fixing a compromise level between the existing tariffs ol the various countries, raising some and low- ering others. The cffect will be to raise tariffs on goods cuter- iug Germany and Ilolland. but to reduce by very substantial amounts the duties on most goods entering France and Italy. Broadly speaking the average level of Common Market extcr ual tariffs will be lower than the average level of tariffs imposed by its members before the Com- mon Market was created. HOLES IN THE WALL

It should also be borne iu mind that on some very impor- tant commodities the Commun- ity will impose no Common Ex- ternal Tariff at all. Talk of e.

lug; the so-called wall will have a good many holes in it. in gen- eral the EEC's tariffs, following Europe’: traditional tariff pat- tern, will apply mainly to manu-

c red goods. Many raw ma- terials will enter duty - tr ee.

on a range of manufactured goods the EEC has recently lo- wered its external tariffs by 20 per cent as a result of an agree-

meat with the United States con-

cluded withlu the GATT negotia- tions. These coucesslous extend to all GA'I'I‘ members.

Even as it stands at present the tariff policy of the Euro} can Economic Community could hardly be described as "llllber- al," at least judged by current standards. But what of the fu- ture? What are the chances that it will reduce these external tar- lifs as time goes on? The ans- wer to this must be speculation, but it is, I think, fair to point out that in the preamble to the

reaty at Rome the signatories explicity state their desire to contribute to "the progressive abolition oi restrictions on in- ternational trade". Here an im- portaut influencing factor will undoubtedly be the experience of the present discussions at Brus- sels. The task of negotiating the terms oi entry for one of the world’s greatest trading nations is forcing the leaders of the Community to think hard and concretely about the trading problems of the world outside Europe. Already they are show- ing some disposition to modify their arrangements to take ac- count of this.

Thi “outward looking" habit of mind will urelv take ltrmer root if Britain herself becomes

. a full member of tile Commun-

"tariff wall" here is mi.t:lead- l lty.

Space Age Techniques
