"The strongest memory is weaker was me weakest ink."

I . l Montgomery 5 Warning . An atltiress delivered the other tiny by Field Marshal Montgomery I before the Royal United Service iii- stitution in London deserves more

than casual attention on the part of l

f governments pod citizens Oi free world countries. Viscount Montgom- ery is. of course, a brilliant soldier. perhaps the most brilliant of mod- ? ' ern times. But he is also a keen stu- ”' dent of history. a qualification that makes him wary of the apparently growing opinion in military and political circles that the hydrogen bomb and its related weapons of mass destruction have made war unlikely and perhaps obsolete. Again, like a lot of other competent observ- ers of the current political scene he is worried about the unmistakeable trend towards reduction of armam- ents and forces in almost every Western nation today. as a result of the supposed easing of tensions be- tween the Soviet Union and the West. But, unlike some others, he does not hesitate to speak his mind for fear of unfavourable public re- action, which politicians feel they must heed even when it is based on nothing more substantial than wish- ful thinking.

Viscount Montgomery is of the opinion that the situation confront- ing the West at this moment is as critical as it has been at any time in the past ten years, chiefly be- cause of the lack of what he calls "a global plan to meet a global strug- gle". He seems to think, for one thing, that NATO is fast losing its power as a united force against ag- gression, malnly because its member nations for the most part are more interested in reducing defense bud- gets than in retaining a corporate

, , , strength and, for another, that pre- V p occupation of Western governments

with side issues is weakening their resolve and ability to cope with Soviet strategy for eventual world conquest.

The reasonableness of this latter view must be apparent to anyone. Divided policies with respect to the Suez crisis, growing European dis- like of the United States, increasing demands for removal of American bases from various countries. riots in Japan over extension of American facilities, quarrels about tariffs and competitive trade policies. lack of unity respecting Israeli-Arab' ten- sions - these irritations and. others like them are diverting free world attention from the "global struggle" against Soviet communism. At least if they are not already doing so, they are bound to have that effed unless something is done-and soon -to correct the situation.

Fresh from addressing -meetings in Winnipeg during the weekend and in Montreal on Monday John Diefenbaker has arrived in Char- lottetown in time for the annual meeting of the Prince Edward Is- land Progreslsve-Conservative Asso- ciation. Although arrangements were made before the qugstion of party leadership was in issue, it is inevit-

It is noteworthy that although sass- atchewan made a clean sweep of the P. C. candidates at the -last election they made an exception of the Prince Albert member. the territory in Ontario where Mr. Diefenbaker assisted paign was the territory where the Progressive-Conservailves chalked up the greatest gains.

These and other considerations

will no doubt be in the minds of delegates to the party's annual meet- ing as they take the opportunity to meet and assess the personality of Mr. Diefenbaker at the present time. If he should be selected leader he will have a big job on his shoulders. I lie has made it clear that he does not want that job unless there is a general desire for him to undertake

it.

Cal's Good Example

Anyone who is lortunate enough to have a cat in the house will have observed many times how the little animal interrupts tier afternoon siesta every now and again to go through the inotioiis of stretching and then lics dmtn again. This is really an iniportzmt activity in a cat's life and not merely a way of "showing off"-important enough, indeed. to have been brought up and discussed at the recent annual meet- ing of the International College of Surgeons in Chicago. The subject was introduced in a discussion of ways and means of keeping the body agile. It was pointed out by a specialist that lack of stretching at regular intervals is injurious to the health, and in the case of office workers and others in sedentary oc- cupations can be dangerous.

This is where the cat came in. Knowing instinctively what is ben- eficial for health and what is not. she would never think of sleeping for seven or eight hours without taking time off for strctchlng her limbs; and, no doubt, she gets in a little of the exercise in her ragular out-doors activities. Humans, say the doctors, should follow her good example.

Cats have always been known to possess by natural endowment many philosophical gifts which their hu- man friends attain only after years of searching and study-whcn they find them at all. which is no more than a 50-50 chance. it is fitting, therefore, that they should be brought into public health programs. Everyone knows there is a clear re- lationship between philosophy and health.

EDITORIAL NOTES

A political analyst describes For- eign Minister Fawzi of Egypt as "a master at drawing up statements full of ringing and meaningless plat- itudes”. What's distinctive about that? Almost any politician can do

as much.

WISTLE sror

In six months the legendary Gold Coast, wh-are pirates roamed until the mid-l9th century. will exist no longer. in its place will rise Ghana, I new. all-African nation of 4.500.00 people.

The crucial day is March 6. Then, like a youngster on his 21st birthday. the Gold Coast gets the key to the front door of the Com- monwealth. it becomes black Af- ricals fir st British colony to achieve full nationhood within the Commonwe "h, c it s n g l n g its name at the same time to Ghana, once an ancient and powerful Af- rican kingdom near Timbuktu.

A BOLD GAMBLE

For Britain. it is a bold gam- ble. Ghana will stand, for better or worse, for all the world to see as an exsmpe of an imperial ad- olescent growing up.

Some critics, who feel Britain is too eager to impress others of her advanced colonial policy. fear Ghana won't be an ideal example -that corruption and dlssenslon will steal the limelight.

Other observers see merely a choice of tasks for the Unit ed Kingdom: Either independence and a hope that maturity will match responsibility. or delay and all the inherent dangers stalling produces.

After all, it was only in 1946 that the Gold Coast, an equatorial land in Africa's western elbow. wss sl- lawcd an African majority on the legislative council; and only in 1952 that its first prime minister was elected.

"The Gold Coast is achieving in a few short years what other coun- tries took decades to reach," says Daily Mail reporter Don lddon. "The eyes of all Africa are on the Gold Coast for what is happening is a bold and audacious experi- ment. something that only the British would dare."

Canada has particular interest in the Gold Coast. an important source of bauxite which is used in p. ” l lumlnum. The alu- minum Company of Canada is vi- tally concerned in a vast hydro- electric project to harness the Volta River for aluminum output on the spot.

The scheme. at an initial cost of 16.160.000.000. has been passed as economically, technically and commercially sound. but the Gold Coast government has reserved

ju d g m e nt until after indcpen- '

dence.

The Timcs. noting Gold Coast collaboration with Canadian and British companies, says the scheme has an ”obvious bearing" on whether the country decides to remain within the Commonwealth. A BRIGHT FUTURE

At present. with cocoa as the chief export, the Gold Coast needs s highly organized mineral indus- try to buttress her economy. The future appears bright.

When the people of the Gold

Coast look ahead, they recall I -

myth from their past. it goes this way: A magician once drew from a black cloud a wooden stool partly covered with gold. This stool, said the sorcerer, con- tained the soul of the nation. some day, he predicted, It would be a great nation.

And to this day. the stool is a symbol of uuthoriw and power in the Gold Coast. A chief is not crowned there. Strictly speaking. he is enslooled.

The mere age of these denlsens of America's dry Southwest is im- pressive enough. But the climatic record written in the rings of any tree trunk now is carried back 40 centuries. What secrets this may unlock is suggested when one re- calls that weather runs in cycles -cycles of wet and drought, heat and cold. Cycles of perhaps. a score of years' duration are known: those of I century or more sre suspected. Have there been swings between extremes even greater and longer?
