Billion Dollar Job

. When the Trans-Canada High‘ way Motorcade visits Charlottetown Elate today, Prince Edward Island will ‘become the focal point in a vast, ex- panding program of celebration lead- ing up to the official opening of the Trans-Canada Highway on Sept 3~

I The principal event here will be ‘the official opening of the Hillsboro :Bridge (or Hillsborough Causeway, :if the purists prefer) by Hon. J. An- . igus MacLean. as acting federal min- Lister of public works, at 4:30 p.m. This will give ceremonial recognition to the fact, already enjoyed on th0 Island, that this province's section of the TCH, as originally planned, in complete and in extremely active use.

And yet, whether in this province or elsewhere, the larger fact about Canada.’s national highway (no mat- ter how often it is “opened," “dedi- cated,”, or “declared complete") is that it is I. project that never can Ira; truly finished; never can stop growing.

Each new mile that is opened brings the need for opening of still more miles, so there will be access by good highways to ever more and more of the splendor which is Can- Ida.

So far as that goes, it sometimes seems as if the TCH itself-—author- ized in 1949, I-building since 1951, and I dream for almost 50 years- never will be quite complete. As Premier Smallwood of Newfoundland made dramatically clear last week, there are large gaps that still have to be brought up to TCH standards.

Still, what is important today is

9 that Canada does have “a road."

.. . ...>. <...-.-.

most of it excellent and some of it superb, extending 4,860 miles from coast to coast, which not only links but binds together all 10 provinces, and it forms the longest national highway in the world.

' It is I cause for pride in all Can- ada—a job costing more than I. bil- lion dollars, carried out under many most difficult conditions in I coun- try with I population of only some 18 millions.

A New Sister

There are many senses in which -the friendship between Canada and Eialemalca will move to I new basis itodey--it could become almost I i..pertnership—as the lovely land of lithe Caribbean proclaims her sover-

7 aielguty. This will make Jamaica the

' ' iioond free Commonwealth country,‘

Canada, in the Western herni-

7 aphere ; I circumstance which should give new strength to the old bonds

between the two.

The direction th a friendship

, “seeds to take is suggested by the

' ‘fact; that Jamaica also becomes to-

; the first new nation to achieve

Yet the chances III goal. I there can be just I little spur to in- dustry in Jamaica-—'a small increase in the regular inflow ofinvastment capital—I few improvements in agricultural methods-I I t at 1'1: to- ward stability in world marketing arrangements for her products- these things can give the new country the economic viability need- ed to ease its unemployment and underemployment, to end the misery of many of its people, and to spread the benefits of education.

Jamaica can be counted upon to make good use of these boons, if she is helped to have them, for she en- ters nationhood with I sound parlia- mentary government in the British tradition, and adheres to British principles of justice.

Apart from the question of kin»- ship (which never should be dis- counted, much less forgotten), Canada’s cause for interest in what happens in Jamaica is enormous, since more than half of the foreign investments there, totalling i-n ex- cess of $300 million, are Canadian.

Jamaica deserves well of all of us as she today becomes I new, small sister in the family of the Commonwealth.

Only A Postponement

While immediate hopes of find- ing a formula. to cover Britain's en- try into the European Economic Community have foundered, chiefly because no acceptable compromise was reached covering Common- wealth f Irm products, including those from Canada, this does not mean that Britain's plans to enter the Common Market now will be dis- carded.

As long ago as July 22, The Sun- day Times, of London, foresaw the possibility of a. stalemate such as now has developed, if the only terms the Common Market countries would accept were found “genuinely un- satisfactory in British and Com- monwealth eyes.”

But if this happened, it contin- ued, “then the task of paving Bri- tain’s way into Europe would have to be renewed, with undiminished vigor, in the autumn. There can‘ be no complete re-tracing of steps now, whatever the illusionists of I new British Empire may think.”

And that is the way things stand now after Saturday's breakdown in negotiations. The pressures of real- ity continue to push Britain toward Europe a n d the Common Market. The same pressures continue to in- sist that the future for Canada's farm products will have to be sought in some new way——perhaps through I new world commodity agreement —-rather than dependence on the old Commonwealth arrangements.

As A Human Being

Just last week I four-page article in Life magazine presented what were described as Marilyn Monroe’I feelings on the subject of fame. Some of the words credited to her are forced back to mind by her death.

“When you are famous every weakness is exaggerated," she was quoted as saying.

Then, I little further on, there come this declaration: “. . . fame is not really for I daily diet, that's not what fulfills you. It warms you I bit but the warming is temporary.”

Perhaps, though, the words that have been made most poignant now came when she said: “. . . when

you’re I human being, you feel, you ~

suffer--you're g-a y, you're sick, you're nervous or whatever. Like

I any creative human being I would

like is little bit more control . . ."

Well, we know next to -nothing about Marlyn Monroe as an actress or as I “sex symbo ," but her words have made it easy to mourn for her I little as I human being.

EDITORIAL NOTES

The newest map of the Trans- Ceneda. Highway, which is being officially declared open this month, shows it Is extending from the two mainland points reached by ferries from the Island. It.lI unlikely that there is any poorer advertisment for the Trans-Canada Highway than the New Brunswick portion which connects with Tormantlne. _

1962 CANADIAN OPEN

ATTACK ON PREJUDICE

Canadians At ’School For Peace’

British Information Service

By September nent teenage Canadian boys will be attend-

in Britain. The “School Peace" is a special kind of school, designed to break down national prejudice by bringing boys of different nationality to- gether and encouraging them to Itudy together and share in ad- venture and service. The school iI located in the ancient, forti- fied St. Donat's Norman Castle on the craggy Glamorganshlre coast of South Wales.

The St. Donat‘s venture is the first of the Atlantic Colleges so named because its students are drawn from the Atlantic Treaty nations. Plans are being finalis- ed for other Atlantic Colleges in Canada. the n l ta d States. France, Germany and Greece.

when he was Commandant of the NATO Defence College in Paris, Air Marshal Sir Law- rence Darvall noticed that some staff officers and diplomats ar- rived harboring national prejud- ices which were broken down as they worked towards I com- mon goal.

Sir Lawrence reasoned that if mature men from different countries could learn to work to- gather in this way the result

would be even more marked on ,

younger people. It was then that Sir Lawrence conceived the idea of the school.

FROM MANY LANDS

Two years ago, in 1960, Sir Lawrence Darvall. Dr. K u rt Hahn, former headmaster of Salem, Germany and Gordon- Itoun, Scotland and Mr. Eric Warburg, Vice-President of the Atlantic Foundation for the Free, met to formulate plans for the establishment of the Col- lege. Businessmen. foundations Ind other organizations welcom- ed the idea and soon financl contributions made possible the purchase of St. Donat's Castle.*

The school will initially begin with 50 pupils but to be self-sup- porting it will require an enrol- ment of 400 pupils at I fee for aach boy of about $1,550.00 per year. It is hoped to achieve this level by 1965. The student body will then be composed of 100 British students with the re- mainder coming in groups of ‘20 or 30 from Canada and ‘ the U.S.A. and from European coun- tries. To permit such an expan- alon further funds of some $2 million will be needed.

Students will be in the 16 to 19 years age group and will study I two-year course before enter- ing University. Industrial ap- prentices will be included I n d

ing the world’: first “School for f thematics, science, history and Peace" which is being opened i’

when their course is completed. All boys will study some ma-

literature of their own country and two languages other than their native tongue. one of which can be at the colloquial level. As qualifications for en- try lnto British universities dif- fer from country to country it is intended to solve the problem of university admission by seeking a single standard for all the col- leges as they come to be found- ed: the aim will be to teach to the standard required by the universities of the parent coun- try and to add for boys from other nations additional sub- jects as may be negotiated with each of their countries.

ONLY TWO TERMS

Special attention has been de- voted to the apprentices from industries who will study at the

school. They will have the op- portunity to learn the languages and industrial methods of other countries.

The school year will consist of only two terms to minimise tra- vel expenses, partlcularly for the scholars from Canada and the USA. A ten-day break is provided in the middle of each

rm to permit extra-curricular activities.

Atlantic College is not provid- ing an academic course which is to be all work and no play. Scaling the Welsh Black Moun- tains, games and physical train- ing are among the extra-mural activities which are planned. In order to foster co-operation the boys will be eligible to partici- pate in I wide variety of other pursuits. These included wild- life conservation, mountain res- cue work, flre service or beach patrols.

Noise Makes Fatigue

Noise is another big fatigue producer. An experiment de- scribed in the American Journal of Psychology showed that great deal of noise. during I 19- minutc work period, resulted In an energy expenditure that was greater than normal by 60 per cent.

Liberty Mutual studies in In- dustrial noise, conducted as part of its “protection-in-depth” ser- vice, have also brought to light ways to combat compensable loss of hearing suffered by em- ployees of policyholders. F o 1' example:

Artificial Kidney Use is Controlled By Unique Jury

This condition is more c om- mon in the elderly who h a v e hardenin the arteries. high blood pressure. or I long stand- ing kidney infection. In in 0 st instances, uremia is I terminal condition in this age group and the use of the artificial kidney is more likely to prolong death.

On the other hand. there are many otherwise‘ healthy. emo- tionally mature adults under 45 who no longer are able to work because of uremia. Their kid- neys are shot because of inher- lted defects, serious infections, or stones.

Poisons can be filtered out when these people are connect- ed to the artificial kidney for 12 to 24 hours. But the results are temporary and, within a week. this difficult procedure must be repeated.

Hay fever which is probably one of the most common of II- lerglc diseases and the point of so many jokes, is the cause of a great deal of human suffering and economic loss. The office of the family physician: the out- patient department of the local hospital; to say nothing of suf- ferers who slruggle bravely on at their office or who suffer in silence at home. are among the hundreds of thousands of Cana- dians plagued by hay fever.

However, as the Health League po l n t I out. medical science is making great pro- gress in the field of allergic complaints. As so happens in scientific research. the more the researchers learn about the my-
