or A New Federation

; Sir Hilary Blood,‘.a British colon- iall-administrator who spent 35 years in various posts throughout the Em- pire, believes that the colonies of Bermuda and the Bahamas" should look forward to federation with

status within the Commonwealth. The reason he gives is that the two ttgifritories are too small to become sovereign states and too far north forhnking up with the new Carib- bean Federation to be practical. This is not a new idea. It has, been talked about off and on for years. Perhaps the time has come for‘ Canada to take the initiative and suggest negotiations aimed at union. It ought not to be a particul- arly difficulf. arrangement to bring about; and it ought to be worth some-

‘two oollonies. If federation were found -feasible after thorough ex- ploration from all angles, it may be that the Caribbean group federation, once it h-as achieved full indepen- dence, would like to. come into the larger federatliom This, too, has been the subject of speculation for years; but for some reason or _ other it has never rpassedgbeyond the theoretical stage; V , What happened in Newfoundland ten years ago shows what can be done when questions of this kind

F I . Education Week ,

Education is a subject in which it is‘. -becoming difficult to see ‘the wood for the trees. It is natural,‘and perhaps desirable, that‘there should ,be divergent views; and certainly I these -were not lacking at the Can- ‘ adian_Conference on Education held at Ottawa’ last month. Next week is being’ obse M d as Education Week, when the results of the Conference will be discussed Widely across the country, and the importance of educ- A ation emphasized from many angles. It is to be hoped that this. publicity will achieve at least one result, namely, an awakeningyof public con- cern in a subject which has too long been left in -the hands of professional educationists and small groups of laymen. I I»

_ We hear much nowadays about “progressive” methods, and we note that these .metl_1ods came in for strong criticism as well as praise at the Ottawa conference. The fact ‘is, of course, that techniques in educa- ‘tion are merely a means to an end. They do not solve the problem of direction. As noted in some of the source material prepared for the’ Coiiference, there is no “one” or “figst” way to teach; there are many ways. There ‘are ways of rousing in- tefiest, and this is ‘essential. There aria ways of inducing a 0 child to think, and an ineffective teacher fails to obtain this response." He is the. less ineffective beicause he is"‘”§wedded to modernistic methods. A teacher is -not.a machine that can

means of any kind. Often, indeed, the ultra-modernist - has A merely

plied—-something that is much old- er than himself.

In ' reading, F for ' example-«we quote again from the Conference source material—the dominant school at present emphasizes “word recognition”-—the word as a picture. seen whole. Many people think this is a “new” method, but it is not.

Toronto Public Library which uses the word recognition method, dating from 1790, and it was then in its 16th edition. Egerton Ryerson, a century ago, vigorously advocated word recognition and derided “abecedarians”. Nevertheless, good teachers use both phonetic analysis and word recognition. The same prin- .ciple, of judicious choice between what is new and old, applies to teach- ing methods generally. ,

At ;the university level, despite the heavy pressure of example and rivalry from Russia, there seems to be a strong desire to maintain in this country the traditional stand- ards of humane letters and high scholarship. This can only be done by maintaining adequate standards in the schools. Some compromise

more highly trained people to run a technological society will__have to be reached. Here we come to the really vital problem. Can Education Week throw any light upon it? It is ' apparent the decision will have to be made soon, as the crisis in numbers, accommodation and staff is ap- proaching rapidly. ' '

The IndustriaI MiIe The Halifax Municipal Council is taking practical steps to entice new industries into _the area. A 50-acre site, known as the Halifax Industrial

Post, the ,city’s Industrial Com- missioner, is to provide sites for thirty orforty small plants in such fields as electronics, plastics; apparel, paper products and boat building. ‘Each site will begreasonably priced

WHERE ARE THE PLOWS?

We came from Summerside to Alberton last evening between the hours of five and seven P.M. ‘We saw. none in action. This morning,

Feb; 28, I called our dispatcher,

who by the way is very obliging, and doing a good J'0b_ With the equipment he has at his disposal- He says the situation is serious and no by-roads are ploughed ex- cept in an emergency and nothing definite as to when they will_be ploughed. ‘

The farmers all say it is ser- lous. Potatoes are a good ‘ price and they can’t move any. I even notice ‘that Mr. Watson Mac- Naught, has become concerned about road 'conditions in West Prince. That ‘should be proof, Sir, that the situation is really ser- ious; to my knowledge he has never been so deeply concerned before‘, I notice, that he has con- tacted the Minister of Highways in ‘our Provincial; Government concerning «means of transporta- tion up west.

We hope Watson keeps up ‘the good work. Too bad he. did not

- u think about us more when he had more influence. Let us imagine what.-could have taken place ‘in

West Prince if Watson had been so

inclined; by-roads could have been

built up, so that they would be

- easy to plough, ditches would not

have been filled in and left for three years, in.a farming com- munity which is second to none on P.E.I_.; electrically would have been expanded and our newest

‘ pavement would not be twenty

years old (I do make exception for a few miles in Dr. Dewar’s district last summer). But we- sincerely believe that all these things that we lack in the west have been due to a shortage pf money. Even to the dozing out of about five miles of road and filling the ditches up three years ago at the same time filling the farmer's cellars. with water. This would have to be due -to a shortage of money and in no way connected with political spite.

The scene has changed, Thanks. to the Conservative Government in Ottawa and efforts of our re- presentatives, the P.E.I. govern- ment is no longer impoverished. ‘Its larder is being replenished by an extra ten million dollars in the next four years, and I think “Wal- ter” will get more when he takes over. In fact, he might have done

' better now had he been ‘taken

along last fall; for in spiteof any differences anyone may have with Mr. Shaw we all have to acknow- ledge he always has been a fighter for what he believes to be right.

So come on boys! the Conser. /,vat1ves have given the extra ‘money and more will follow. Lets see some of it spent in the forgotten snow bound area of West Prince.

I INTERNATIONAL FORCE

S1r.—It may be. interesting to note at this time when there is so much controversy regarding the origin of an International Force_ that this idea was first voiced by a prince of Persia, about one hundred years ago.

Baha‘u’llal1, who also claimed to be a Prophet, warned human- ity against armed conflict. Ad- dressing the sovereigns of the world, he wrote, “Should any- one among you take up arms against one another, rise ye all against him, for this is nought but manifest justice”.

Enlarging upon this scheme. his son wrote, “The soverigns of the world must conclude a binding treaty,~ and establish a covenant, the provisions of'whicl1 shall be ‘sound, inviolable, and safe . . . The fundamental prin- ciple underlying this solemn pact should be so -fixed that if any government later violate anyone of its provisions, all governments on earth should arise to reduce it to utter sub-

IOTTAWA REPORT.»

Ottawa: House-building is pro- ceeding at a record pace for this

govern-ment’s plans to create jobs gather inomentum- ‘ Oshawa’s member in the Cab- inet, Labour Minis‘terMike Starr, foretold, with considerable confi- dence in the late Fall that the building industry would be the key-note job opportunity in Can- ada through the coming months, -and his forecast is,‘ proving to have been right on the nail, The slow-down in home-building arose through the tight money po- licy of the Liberal» government. By late summer,’ the supply of -pnivavte ' mortgage -m 0 n e y,- for

visions of the National Housfiig Act, had dried up to less than a trickle. \- ‘ ‘

In the face of the growing de- mand 'for homes from our ever- increasing population, -and in view of the lay-offs in the build-. ing trades and in the many feed- er industries, the Diefenbaker go- vernment moval fast to remedy this shortage of mortgage money. It immediately pumped out a sup- ply of $150,000,000 for which there was statutory provision; and this in o n e y was made avaaila-ble through Central Mortgage and Housing Corporation acting in

conjunction with banks and in-

surance companies as agents. 100,000 JOBS .' '

.That amount of money, Mr. Starr told me, would provide mortgages for 15,000 homes. The construction of that number of homes, he further said, would create 45,000 jobs on‘ building s-ites and 90,000 jobs off site in the pro- duction of thelumber, building materials and accessories which would go into those, homes.’

In addition, said Mr. Starr, whose thoroughness makes him look at every subject from every angle, those houses would be com.- pleted ‘and sold within a few months. Canadian families would want to move into them, but be- fore they could be _.lived in, an average of $1,600 worth of new appliances, curtains, carpets and furniture would be purchased for

That first shot of mortgage money was all- absorbed. in the surprisingly short period of fif- teen weeks. So the government then moved to make more money available, and another $50,000,000, representing 5,000 more houses, has already been bespoken.

, The magical effect of this move by the government is reflected in an increase of a staggering 114 percent in the number of private horns started, under the National Housing-Act, in the nor- mally slow month of December.

In December 1956, only 3.175 starts were made. In December last, this figure, spurred by _the Diefenbaker-St-arr building‘ fillip soared to 6,808 starts.

All) TO JOBLESS . .

The. government’s action in making’ this public money avail-» able as mortgage loans has cer- tainly increased the.vo1ume of

winter by. at least 20,000.

Using the figures supplied ‘by Hon. Mike Starr, that means that 60,000 skilled and semi-skilled

sites this- winter, who would other- wise have been out out of work; while 120,000 additional jobs have been kept open in plants making plumbing and ‘heating equipment and similar specialty. materials used in home construction as well as.in lumbef industries. And on top of that, some‘ $32,000,000 is being spent onfuurnish-ings.

This government program of as- sistance to home-builders is a ffne example of how public mon- e. , carefully put to use, can - st our national economy. The significant thing about this pro-

The present International Geo- physical Year was preceded long ago by'about 150 years of ‘geo- physical speculation which repre- sents the beginning of science. The period runs from about 600 B.C. to 450 B.C. when there was no distinction between’ science

that the thinkers of that time are chonicled under the history of Greek philosophy.

But they were interested main- ly in questions that would be grouped today under mathemat- ics, physics or astronomy.

The real philosophers came lat- er when the sophists decided that speculation about the physical universe had become rather ster- ile and that man, as Protagoras said, was the measure of all things. The inscription over the temple entrance at ‘Delphi, “gno- thi seauton,” “know thyself,” be- came the guide to life and con-

mission.”

In operation this means that a world executive, backed by an international F_orce_ should carry out the decisions arrived at and apply the laws enacted safeguarding the unity of the whole world.

This" principle, rejected by the world one hundred years ago, proved its efficacy upon its first application: Our U.N. Force is at the moment in its infancy, ‘but it will no doubt gain strength as the nations practice unity, and thus preserve peace.

Some of the original geophysicists decided that the earth was a cylinder floating on water whose diame- ter was three times its height. Others pondered the question and decided the earth was a disk floating on air with the sun, stars and planets revolving about it. Still others —— the Pythagoreans who were adept at mathematics and plane and solid geometry - came to the amazing conclusion for that era that a sphere was the most likely shape for a body suspended in space. AWAY FROM MYTHS The Greek geophysicists recog- nized no distinction between spec- ulation and proof by experiment, but the important fact is that they made -a beginning of ration- al explanation of natural pheno- mena where all such things be- fore them were explained by myth and magic. Thales of Mil- etus tried to explain how all things arose from water.

Ac-, cording to Eduard Zeller’s his- tory of Grpek philosophy Anaxa- goras “was consciously ‘and deli- beratelythé first pure contempla- tive thinker who saw in knowledge of the world the task and end of life and was fully convinced of its incidental ethical effects.” By -that description he ranks as the first geophysicist. STARTLING CONCLUSIONS "He combined experiment with observation and speculation. He - came to some rather startling conclusions: the earth was flat supported by air, the stars were red-hot masses of rock thrown off by the rotating earth, the sun was a glowing rock many times the size of the Peloponnesvus, the moon was similar to the e a r t h and inhabited. He had a natural explanation for an eclipse of the sun which helped Pericles quell a panic in thecrews of the Athen- ian fleet. He was the first to dis- tinguish between mind and mat- ter, mind controlling and bringing order to an otherwise chaotic un- iverse.

temporary interest, for he ran afoul of an Athenian law which provided that “those people who do not accept the religion and who spread astronomical‘ doc- trines should be brought" to tri- -al.” A few years later the law‘ was invoked against Socrates, who did not try to escape. By that time philosophy had taken an entirely new tack and the work of the first geophysicists was fin- ished.
