morning. It will be the world’s first attempt ‘to bring manned spacecraft close to its orbiting object and will be a valuable practice for"a Gemini flight planned later this year when the astronauts will link up with an- other satellite.

If Gemini 4 succeeds it will go far towards refuting Soviet claims of superiority which followed Leonov’s exploit. In any case, however,«there are enough parallels between these warming up events to invalidate the criticism. that the Americans are trailing the Russians hopelessly. They seem to be closing the space travel gap as surely as they closed the more vital gap in intercontinen- tal missile strength.

A Dubious Precedent

President Johnson has announced that he is ordering the withdrawal of another 2,000 U.S. marines from the revolt-stricken Dominican Re- public. He jhas expressed pleasure that for the first time in history the Organization of American States has a military force functioning effect- ively, and it is this force that is re- placing the marines as they are be- ing pulled out of the_country..

This venture in international peacekeeping is being shared by five nations—Brazil, Costa Rica, El Sal- vador, Nicaragua and the United States. The soldiers of these nations have donned blue-and-gold arm bands with the letters O.E.A.—the initials in Spanish for the Organiza- tion of American States. Their man- date is to restore normal conditions in the Dominican Republic and_ to

help re-establish a democratic gov- |

ernment.

Behind the immediate crisis there remains a broader question which President Johnson has not mention- ed, but about which a good deal of concern has been expressed. This is the extent to which the creation of such a force might establish trouble- some precedents in the rest of the Sou =

Largely in recognition of the O.A.S., the United Nations Charter makes provision for regional organi- zations and encourages them to settle disputes within their territor- ies. But the Charter also provides that “no enforcement action” can be taken by regional bodies without the authorization of the Security Coun- cil. One difficulty is that what con- stitutes “enforcement action” has never been defined.

The United States and the 0.AS. have attempted to evade this ques- tion by arguing that the dispatch of an inter-American force, such as in the Dominican crisis, does not repre- sent an “enforcement action,” since the individual members are not com- pelied to contribute forces and no

The United States and the 0.A'S. are now groping their way toward some _compromise of concurrent jurisdiction and commitments with the United Nations. But it is not go ing to be easy.

Relatively Speaking

Many Canadians will agree with the criticism voiced by NDP spokes- men of the easy terms on which pen- sions of $8,000 a year were offered by the government to all present sen- ators of 75 years or over who will agree to retire voluntarily. But. as the Edmonton Journal points out, the Lower House has long had a pension plan that, while costing them quite a few nickels, has been far from actuar- ial. It has, in short, been heavily sub- sidized by the taxpayers of the coun- try.

This is still-the-tase. When, in 1963, the members voted to double their pay, in effect. they also revamp- ed their pension plan. Now they are entitled, after serving in three Par- liaments, to a lifetime annual pension of five-twelfths of their total income. The maximum pension is $9.000 a year. If a member should die. his widow will receive three-fifths of his pension for life.

Such a generous pension plan. of course, requires large annual grants from the public treasury. So. the criticism of the Senate pension plan notwithstanding, everything is seen to be relative.

Encouraging Figures

Last month's returns for the fisheries industry are not yet in. but it is heartening to note that for the month of April, Maritime fishermen landed a volume of 45,.600.000 pounds and which had a value of $4,400,000. The most lucrative of the total catch was 3.300.000 pounds of shellfish, including lobsters. valued

at $2,300,000. Compared with the | average April landings for the vears +

1962-64, last April's catch was higher by 1.300.000 pounds and the value up by $1,100,000.

Then for the cumulative four

months, January to April of this |

year, fish landings in the Maritimes

totalled 135,700,000 pounds. the val |

ue of which amounted to $10.800.- 000. These respective figures com- pared with 113.200.000 pounds valu- ed at $9.400,000 in 1964. and 82.800,-

000 having a value of $7.800,000 in

1963. '

has been standardized with that of the United States in many

as well.

Canada is faced with a sim- ilar dilemma. Most of the world has by now adopted the metrie system. and once Britain has joined the rest. Canada’s trade outside the North American con- tinent will be impeded by its an- tiquated weights and measures. Moreover, other Commonwealth countries still maintaining im- perial measures, such as Austr- alia and New Zealand, have already begun their switchover te the metric system.

On the other hand, the Uni- ted States is Canada’s best cus- tomer, and it would be almost impossible to split the North Am- erican continent into two differ-

ent measurement systems.

Thus, in the end, Canada will have to follow the United States’ precept. It would greatly heip international trade if the Ameri- cans toi changed over to the metric system so that the world would have a universal system of weichts and measures.

On the domestic front, with a dawning realization that the Vietnamese war could last. sev- eral years as it is being waged now, there is some disucssion about the American public's staying power.

This is coupled with evidence

- that-China-.and.North Viet. Nam_

feel the.American endurance will crumble under the steady pounding of biéody guerrilla fighting and increasing Ameri- can losses

“The most important .require- ment for success in Viet Nam aside from fighting men, weap- ons and diplomacy. may turn out to be patience and stamina in the U.S..” says columnist Ed- ward T. Folliard in the Wash- ington Post

“It is a fact that Americans are not noted for patience In- deed. we have made a virtue of impatience. and this doubt-

PRONE TO RESPOND

But Gilpatric. Writing in the 4

New York Times, sees @ more likely danger that the “‘Ameri- can people will- prove them-

riod of protracted strucgie.” “As a nation. we are prone to respond quickly and strongly to traumatic events such as the sinking of the Lusitania or the

But over a long period. that may not be much help, he sug- gests in recalling the Korean War. where—unlike Viet Nam— the U.S. had a lot of moral and military help from the United Nations

Viet Nam policy—as expressed primarily soe far by minorities in American universities — is

The lone philosophic view of — China's leaders toward such struggles as Viet Nam is sketched in a recent report from Edgar Snow, the Ameri- can journalist who has known these men since their founding days ‘

Snow wrote in s@ recent issue of New Republic that China feels it has much to gain from the -exisfing ~situation;~ ever ‘if

‘American planes should begin

He quotes Marshal Chien Y! as saying to him: “Whatever happens. it will only be an im cident in the perspective of his- tory and ultimately be forzot- ten. The American and the Chi- nese people will renew their friendship.”
