lhre'e-Fold Problem ‘ Seen Facing Canada

MONTREAL (CP)—The pres- ident and chairman of the Royal Bank of Canada said Thursday barriers to thought have led to faulty analysis and incorrect definition of the major Cana- dian economic problems.

“ rong diagnosis usually leads to wrong medication. which In turn aggraves or con- ceals the real cause of the trou- ble." sal W. Earle McLaugh- lln in his address to the bank's 95th annual shareholders‘ meet- in.

He said the Canadian image at home and abroad is blurred and distorted and will only im- prove when Canadians agree on I clear and firm purpose.

Mr. McLaughlin said the eco- nomic problems are threefold:

1. A ance of payment defl- clt In goods and services-—a def- lclt in our trade with the world In oods and cos:

2. A balance of payments sur-_ plus on capital account—a not important of foreign capital;

and

3. An over-all deficit In the federal budget—a deficit in the Canadian government's balance of receipt! and expenditures.
