Fact 4

Flexible Policy lliiau i-I "Act. may 0? aidld ibwii American policy in the Sui-I crisis. it rcrtainl) cannot be called rigid and inflexible. indeed, the opinion is growing in Britain and France and probably in Egypt, too-that it is so flexible as to he almost meaningless. Both the mieinational plan adopted at the first London conference and the Users plan adopted at the second were the handiwork of Secretary of State Dulles. But the. ink u as scarce- ly dry on either document when Mr. Dulles. acting of course on orders ,from President Eisenhower. as good as told Colonel Nasser not to worry about anything. almost as it that gentleman had registered as a Re- publican voter. Then. several days after the second conference. he an- nmmccd that all ships owned or con- trolled by American interests. irre- spcctire of their registrations. would refuse to pay canal tolls to Egypt. .'l'Iiat unuld have meant that Egypt uould not get any more than about 40'. of regular canal tolls. perhaps less. since- American owned Ihips total 20"; of the whole tonnage. though the bulk of them are under foreign registry. and the British and French. u ho also decided in pa)” no tolls to lzigypt. own about 4064-- That. of course. it ould have been I severe blow to Colonel Nasser- and it might. have helped to bring about a solution satisfactory to the

West and fair to Egypt. Now. how- met". Xlr. Dulles says he is not sure

'I that the United States Treasury De- partment has the authority to in- clude American ships of foreign reg- striy In the no-tolls-to-Egypt classi- ficatiom And that doubt in all pi'ob- ability is just a. prelude to I finding that no such authority exists--am other sop to Mr. Nasser. Iuess than 3', oi normal canal traffic is actual- ly under American registry. No won- der the British and French people are getting R little weary of this dis- play of extreme flexibility.

Free Trade It should come as no surprise to anyone to hear that British Govern- ment and industrial officals Ire seri- ously considering entering into I free trade agreement with France, West Germany. Italy. Belgium. Lux- embourg and the Netherlands. For some time these countries have been complaining that. although Britain In In I geographical and political sense a member of the West. Euro- pean Icommunity. she has not par- ticipated to the utmost. measure of her resources in sthc strengthening of continental economy. To the ex- tent that this criticism is valid the Iituetion developed from the 6 na- tional insistence on I so-called "com- mon market". This would mean that all the participating nations would adopt A three trade prosram Ind agree. to a common tariff on goods coming from outside. countries. This. in turn, would interfere with the preferential tariffs which Britain now shares with other members of the Commonwealth: and the British have frowned on that. ' Under the terms of the new plan which the British are said to bacon- psidering favourably, each country would be free to arrange its own tariffs independently with respect to non-participating countries. although

nu-uu mm in um. nun ut IvuLrui- tion. since agricultural products make up I goodly portion of their available exports. Of course. as Mr. Peter Thorneycroft, President of Britain's Board of Trade. suggested the other day in Ottawa. the free trade agreement might be expected to strengthen the whole West Euro- pean economy and thus increase the demands for goods from Canada and other Commonwealth countries. That. however. is pure'speculItion. it may or may not turn out that may in any event. it must be re- membered that the principle of free trade is I deeply rooted British tra- dition and it was perhaps the strong- est contributing factor to the na- tions industrial greatness. It is only in the last quarter of a century or so that tariffs began to take an im- portant place in Britain's fiscal pol- icx. it may be that the experiment uhich is now bcinc considered will in due. course lead to I revival of free trade on a much wider scale.

U. 5. Foreign Aid

The united States is often Ci'lIi- L'l2tYi for making military and polit- icai interest the basis of its huge foreign aid programs. And. of course. ii is a matter of record that much of the money sent abroad since the end of World War Two was intended to holster the military strength of the non-Communist world and to help backward peoples to raise their standards of living as I bulwark against the spread of (fommunism. in his recent report on last year's Mutual Security Program President Eisenhower made frank acknow- ledgement. of this. "The accomplish- ments under this program of mutual effort." he wrote. ”have further ad- vanced the securit). the economic progress and the well-being of the United States and our partners In the free world".

For the year under review SW2 billion had been Iet aside for the foreign aid program. Of this huge amount nearly 311 billion went for direct rniliteiry aid. S725 million went for what is called "defense sup- port". I term which covers aid in- tended to replace funds which the receiving countries already had spent on their own defense systems. That left approximately 5700 million for non-military old. This amount. too. might be considered to have strategic value. ,Nevertheless. it does not di- rectly strengthen American security; and. in I sense. it might almost be called I farewell gift. At. any rate. it is in Int of money which the coun- tries that received it would not have had otherwise.

incidentally. since the program began in 1950 under President Tru- man nearly it'll-; billion have gone front the United States Treasury to foreign countries. about two-thirds of it to Europe.

However. if this story is true. then the Russians are not so smart as many people have feared.

Apart from this very flimsy plot. t

which has brought an exti-overt his moment of headlined tame. the story of the Russian chess play- ers is it funny one.

The Civil Service hens has I Recreational Ah5nClailni1 for its members. This has many branch- es. such as I ski club. I sailing club. I chess rliib. I bridge club and others. Each individual club has in large nwasiire oi indepen- dcncr The 4-he.-1 club. for exam- ple. not only rnnvasses for mem- bers among the civil service. it Ilso offers membership to men and women outside the service. In the past year, its membership of about izn men and women has

ranged from the president of I big crown Corporation to I very junior clerk. and has repmsentedmost. departments of government. such as finance. Trade and Comme cc. Air Force. Headquarters. th I Mounted Police. etc. its member- ships has also ihvlused about an percent from private jobs. such as several civilian accountants. and rlnployees of I pulp and papaer company. including some New- Cansdians from behind the Iron Curtain. its membership has also been offered to diplomats. so that there have been ten Russians. two Indians. an Israeli and In Argen- tine in it this year. RUSSIAN! MOSTLY C-l.. .. .

As the members lit down to play chess in the bleak and uncIub- like classroom. they are divided into ten classes. according to their skill. There is Class A. Then Clan 8., split into three sub-sections. Ditto Classes C and D.

Club.

Sometimes the chess club has I guest night. when it is invited In meet at some place other than its unfriendly classroom - such as the " ' Embassy. On then guest nights. team matches Ii-I often played. All employees of the National pesurch Council make up one team: Ill diplomatic mem- bers make up another team: Ind so on.

From some newspaper: was might draw the conclusion that the history of OttIwI's chess club has been just I non-stop contest. at anything but cheu. between the team of Mounties and the team of Russiln spies. But the dull truth is that is just isn't no.

outside the club. howavor. Rus- sian diplomat Gonnadl Popov has behaved uudiplomatlcally. and was asked by our government to MD off. He did. The ruit has been a smear an the game of chess.

Now I am wondering whether my five year old daughter. Vict- oria. I chess fan in her own right. should be weaned from this taint- ed occupation.

I singer. and a poet of the lumber- carnps during the late 19th and early 20th centuries. 1 would be delighted to hear from anyone who knew him. knew of him. or can tell me anything at. all about him.

financing of television. this ques- tion should be kept to the fore. To continue federal subsidies to the CBC for television can prove an in- justice in the many taxpayers who are much happier without televis- ion in their homes.

Recently companies suggested pay-as-you-see television for Can- Ida. Subscribers would have to unscramble certain broadcasts. deposit coins in their receivers to This would provide revenue for tho CBC. as well as for the companies anxious to get into the business. But It does seem to be I hit-and- miss propostion. Conceivably. there would not be enough coins in the slots to make-the project feasible.

it is unfortunate that Canada. through the CBC. has committed itself to provide this service. It

' would have been better if televis-

ion had been left for commercial development by free enterprise. But since the nation has gone thus far. it may be impossible to L ,.

the course of things. The problem for the Fowler Commission is in find I method of financing which will place the charge against those making use of television. The im- mediate answer seems to he the imposition of receiving licences. Certainly the excise tax on receiv- ers and parts will not produce suf- ficient revenue. The licence remains one of the few ways to lay the coat against the people who want the service. Any Ioiuilou should keep in mind thou who do not make use of television. Certainly. there is no way of argu- ing that television is I uationgl necessity. and thus in proper item to charge Illinsf all uxpgyu-3.
