Royal Tour Edition Our p.vple rejoice that it is on sound medical advice that Her Ma- jJesiy Queen Elizabeth is completing ber Canadian tour as originally planned, and that we shall have the opporiunity of welcoming her on

Thursday to Prince Edward Island

without undue fear that her health

is being over.axed.

*. This is the only condition, of course, that would justify our great _pledsure in ‘having the Queen and ‘Pri Philip visit.us at this time. Nor is there any doubt that she ap- preciates our deep concern for her health as well as our desire to ex- press our loyalty and affection. |

In today’s special _Jssue, readers will find detailed information about the Royal tour with particular re- ference to the program in Prince. Edward Island. It has been issued in advance so that its contents may be studied at leisure before Her Ma- jesty’s arrival. This is an historic vecasion, and it is fitting that it be presented in its proper setting in culast human memory and be read, we trust, with interest and enjoy- ment years hence, as indicative

Music Of The Spheres

Scientists listening to’ the heavens with radi roars inf bursts, while ‘the moon rustles softly. The Milky Way—the galaxy to which the sun and its pianets belong—hisses steadily. All the sounds resemble the rushing “hash” that irritates radio listeners sometimes, but to scientists it is the music of the spheres. |

The sounds from space have giv- en astronomers a wholly new tool for learning about the cgsmos, says _,. the Natienal Geographic Society. No

~__ one knew the noise existed until 1931

when a telephone engineer made the starging discovery that some radio static originated in the Milky Way, about 26,000 light-years from the _ earth. A wave of discover{ follow- _ ed. Astronomers found that Mars,

Venus, Jupiter, and Saturn also send .

out radio. waves: And there are

sources of radio waves that are.

invisible with optical telescopes. ’ »-Some’2;600--such “stars”. have been located. Their nature is unknown. A powerful transmitter is the Crab . Nebula, a star.that exploded viglent- ly 900 years ago and is now a rapid- lv expanding blob of gas. Even more spectacular is Cygnus A, the scene of a stupendous collision of galaxies, each-a mighty system of stars and gas. The stars are bypassing each other \with minor disturbances, but “the gdses are meeting violently a producing radio waves. —' - Radio telescopes come in several

shapes. Some look like huge saucers /

aimed at the sky. The dish shape of the antennae helps concentrate the sound. Usually, the bigger the dish, - the fainter the sounds that can be heard. Great Britain unveiled a 250-

foot monster antenna in a cow pas- '

__.. ture_in 1957.-The-Soviet Union _re- portedly has a 350-foot titan in op- eration. The United States Navy is building one bigger still—a colossus

more than 400 feet across—in a quiet:

. pocket of the West Virginia moun- tains. The scientists hope to ‘gather radio waves—from six billion light- years in space—three times as-far as the most powerful optical teles- copes can reach.

Radio telescopes may eventually give scientists the observations they need to decide between two conflict-

: Potato Marketing Pool

A voumary poiaio marketing

pool seems like an excellent scheme thening the potato indus- |

for s try in’ this Province. it should’ not be difficuit, with well-organized publicity, to obtain a membership of 1,000 growers who, with an Mvest- ment of $100 each, could start with an initial share capital of $100,000. There is no doubt, with this demon- ‘stration of initiative, that a $200,000 loan could be obtained through the Industrial Development Bank, to be

. paid back through a levy on grow-

ers’ sales. The plan, as discussed at the St. Dunstan’s University “Coun- ty Caucus” last week, was unan-

‘mously indorsed - in principle and»

its advantages should be plain to ‘all concerned in the industry’s fu- ture. ie

There is no question, as stated by Mr. Mclsaac at the that the industry has suffered” through sloppy marketing practices, parti- cularly in the profitable central Canadian market. The proposed pool would not only provide for receiving

--centres in different section of this

Province for gradifg and packaging, but also. distributing centres in On- tario. and Quebec. ee _Members will, of course, be re- qtiired to sign firm ~ contracts—a

three year ‘term has been suggest-

ed—requiring them to sell their tot- al production - i is of basic importance if the scheme 1s to be a success. It is compulsory to this extent, but it avoids the

objection which proved -fatal to the i

previous marketing board in- that the membership itself is on a volun- tary basis; Hence the need, as pro- posed, for using professional help in the field of public relations. “Growers and shippers appreciate more generally today than they did afew years ago the need for an or- ganization of this kind. We think it will make a very wide appeal and should, under " ment, prove of great value in helping

to ‘stabilize this important part of |

our Island economy.
