Good Friday Reflections

For Christians throughout the world, this is the most solemn sea- son of the year. it is the prelude to the most beautiful of all the Christ- ian Observances, that. of Easter. lts central concept. the dedication of the Resurrection of Jesus, lies at the very core of the. Christian faith and is the most sublime and trium- phant of achievements.

It has been pointed out that the drama of the Crucifixion, apart from its great central theme. is a timeless drama of humanity. It has all the elements and characters of every great human crisis that has ever been—J u d a 5 who betrayed Him; Peter, who believed, and yet denied Him; the anonymous ones who ran away and hid: the warped. hateful justice of the High Priest; the. in- decisiveness of Pilate, who had to reconcile the authority of Rome with his own conscience; the mob that screamed for His blood; the sadists that tortured Him; the soldiers who did what they were ordered to do; and the few who loved Him, but could not help Him. The. setting in- deed is ancient. but the men in it are timeless.

Today. as in the past, it is faith in the Risen Lord who promised that His Kingdom shall come. that gives men the strength to struggle over forward against discourage- ment. and despair. Perhaps never be- fore was there greater need for unity among the. faithful in meeting the challenge that the present-day world presents. For millions of people a new faith has emerged, symbolized not by the Cross but by the hammer and sickle of Commun- ism. In the erstwhile colonial world, too. another new faith has emerged wthe faith of nationalism, with overtones and undertones of racial- ism.

'l‘here is no reason, however, why those of every persuasion cannot agree with Pope John XXIII, in the moving encyclical which he has issued this week, that “the true and solid peace of nations consists not in equality of arms but in mu- tual trust alone." Of necessity, the world must accept this Christian doctrine if it is to avoid the horrors of nuclear war. And within the ranks of Christendom itself the need for its acceptance. in the fullest meas- ure of brotherly concord. is becom- ing more and more evident to en- lightened leaders of all denomina- Iions.

Sir Winston's Reply With agreement of bot-h Houscxs of the American Congress, Sir Win- xton Churchill has become an honor. nry citizen of the United States. President Kennedy referred to Sir Winston as “the most honored and honorable man to walk the stage of human history in the time in which we live": and a veteran Washing- trm political observer referred to him as “the unparalleled symbol of man's insistence upon freedom." Many other tributes of like im- port were expressed on this occas- Ion. Sir Winston himself, from his London home. watched on television Tuesday night the ceremony at. Washington. and was "deeply mov- ed.” Meanwhile, on all-party mo- tion was introduced in the British House of Commons congratulating him on this unique tribute to his lei-vice in the cause of liberty. But the last words on the sub- lect cmne fittineg from the great. nun himself. He called it "a remark- able comment on our affairs" that

H.folrnm'Prlinoldinlstaa-ofsci-out

sovereign state should be received as an honorary citizen of another. Then, with an obvious fling at those who think his country may be sink- ing into a secondary role on the world stage, he said it was with design and emphasis that he spoke of the "great sovereign state.” “For I reject the view," he said, “that Britain and the Common— wealth should now be relegated to a tame and minor role in the world. Our past is the key to our future, which i firmly trust and believe will be no less fertile and glorious. Let

no man nnderrate our energies, our potentialities and our abiding power for good."

This was the voice we had hoped to hear, though it seemed incredible. that a man verging on his 89th birthday would have. the spirit and vision to give it utterance. But these are qualities Sir Winston will carry with him to the end. He knew pre- cisely when to time his great speeches in the past. and it is evid- ent that he hasn‘t lost this precious talent either!

A Poor Precedent

Prime Minister Diefenbaker was never any great admirer of the late Mr. Mackenzie King. And we think it will be unfortunate if he should follow .\lr. King’s example by at- tempting to remain in power after winning only the second largest group of seats in a House of Com- mons lacking a clear majority. in 1925. as Mr. Diefenbaker recalls, Mr. King continued as Prime Minis- ter until mid-1926 and then—after three (‘ommons defeats on matters not requiring a government’s resig- nation—asked for another election.

This wasn’t the. course taken by l‘rime Minister St. Laurent follow- ing the 1957 election, when the situation was pretty similar. Mr. St. Laurent resigned. He. didn't even wait for the service vote or the final writ to be returned. Mr. King's example didn't appeal to him, though he had been Mr. King’s protege, and one of his closest political as- sociates in the years immediately before Mr. King's retirement.

Constitutionally. of course, in the absence of any clear majority, Mr. Diefenbaker is entitled to remain in office for the present. But he could not survive without the com- bined support of the NDP and So- cial Credit parties—a prospect which is extremely remote. He could run into trouble on the first day of the new Parliament, on the vote to ap- point the Speaker. If that vote went against him. it would be appropriate for the Governor General to call upon Mr. Pearson to form a govern- ment. If he got by on that occasion, he would have many other chal- lenges to face.

However, Mr. Diefenbaker hasn’t revealed his intentions as yet. We have every reason to expect that he will weigh all the consequences and decide against any action that would be inimical to the interests of the country.

At Long Last

Premier Shaw's announcement that Prince Edward Island will adopt Daylight Saving Time is one that was long overdue. But it coin- cides with the announcement. of the regional manager of the Canadian National Railways that trains and shipping services in the Province will operate on local time during 1963, and this should put the issue beyond any further controversy. To all intents and purposes, we have been operating on Daylight Saving Time. but we have chosen to call it “Advanced Summer Hours” in- stead. Now we can drop the hypoc- risy and call a spade a spade.

When we recall the storm of pro- tests that this issue raised in the past. we must wonder now what it was all about. But there is no point in moralizing on this theme. Let. bygoncs be bygones. We. shall be. in line. now with most. of the (lane.- dian provinces in observing Daylight Time from April 28 to Oct. 26. and those who were instrumental in bringing about the change are to be congratulated on finally reaching their objective.

M__MTHE AGONY IN THE GARDEN

BRITISH COMMENTARY Complete Self-Government For Kenya

United Kingdom Information Service

Complete agreement has been

reached among the various par~ .

ties in Kenya on a constitution under which the country will get full internal self-government alter elections bctwocn May 18- 2b'

The aim of the constitutum is not only to provide for self- governunent, the final constitu- tional stage before full independ- cncc. but also to solvc most of Lhr many problems of final in. depondenoc. which will follow as possible,

One year ago, with Ghana and Nigeria already independ- ent and Tanganyika, Uganda and others well on the way, the problems of Kmya seemed in- solublc and terrifying.

The Man Man. which resulted in a State of Emengency from 1952 to early 1960, reminder of the force of primit- ive tribalism and the explosiveL ncss of land hunger.

The fact that Mau Man was, in the end, defeated by the ef- forts of Kenya African patriots themselves showed that prog- ress and democracy had strong local roots that gave hope for the lulurc. Nevertheless it was not possible to lift the State of Emergency until January 1960.

The restoration of full polit- ical life brought two develop- ments. The first was the rapid

erosion of European political supremacy. The second was the political organisation of

tribal fears and rivalries in two African Nationalist groups.

UNDERTAKINGS

The British Government socur— 1

ed undertakings from the two parties that they would form a coalition Government of Kenya on their return, with an equal division of portfolios. To the surprise of many. this coalition Government came into being and has since operated loyally and efficiently despite. the well- known differences of opinion. Gradually, many of the blank!

11 a ‘ cussnons the area

'11: the constitution were filled in. The leaders of the two part- ies found themselves in an ag- onising quandary. They could

either refuse to budge. in which ,

case the obloquy for delaying sell-government fcll n them, or they could work out a give- and-tahe system of compromises.

Thanks largely to the rela- tionship that has grown up in the daily tasks of coalition Gov- ernment they found it possible to take the latter counse.

By the time Mr. Sandys. the British Colonial Secretary, arrived in Kenya in mid-February. by far the great- er part of the constitution had

been agreed. Naturally the re- . mainutg points were those about .

twhich the two sides felt most strongly. During exhaustive dis- ' isagree- ment was reduced and Minis- ters agreed that the outstand- i log points should be decided by Mr. Sandys.

It is a tribune lo the state- craft of the Afnican in Kenya that, instead of step-

ping aside from one of the most ,

difficult and complex political and constitutional situations lac. ing any African tenritory. they had the cmuage to face realit- ies and accept solutims on their own responsibility. They have accept stltution which reflects in every way the spirit of cmnlpmmise—

between executive power and democratic checks ces, between strong central {government and real regional ‘ responsibility.

There remained the problem of the Somali population of the Northern Frontier District, most of whom wish integrated

most of them live. This gives ILhe Somalis a degree of local autonomy and leaves open the i possibility of reconsideration of I this problem later on.

The Coastal Strip, a lO-mlle- wide strip along most of the coast of Kenya. will remain part of the dominions of the Sultan of Zanzibar: but it has been agreed that it will con- tinue to be administered as part of Kenya by the new Kenya government. Britain will have further discussions on this lsubject. with the Sultan before Kenya becomes independent.

Everything that foresight can do to set cnya on a ' course has now been done. i When the election has been held land the new constitution intro« { duccd, Kenya will have a firm- lly representative government lresponsible for its internal af- fairs.

Its future will depend on the iwisdom and efficiency of that

i government.

PUBLIC

FORUM

MORAL DANGER STRESSED

Sir. ave read w i t h grave apprehension. the brief presented by the P. I}. l. Tour~ isl Association to the Legisla- tivo Council. proposing a change in the Temperance Act to make available liquors, beer and win- es in existing main tourist establishments in the province, and we take this opportunity to voice our disapproval through the medium of your newspap- e

r.

Without q u of in g the easily available statistics which show the harmful influence of the

abuse of alcoholic beverages in ‘

any society, we would like simp-

ly to remind those who are pro- .

posing the brief that the traffic in alcohol is a '

evil. and the pleasurable bene- fits it affords of relaxation or conviviality. or even of filling the public treasury with tour- ist dollars. are as dust in the balance when compared with

the toll it takes of life and char- ‘ aclcr, Furthcrmore. we believe 1

that we have more than our share of lawlessness and vio- lence in this province. attribut- ed to alcohol. even with the re- strictions we are able to enforce at present. to wilfully encour- age means and ways to foster the destructive influences which can so easily undermine our soc‘ai structure. and deform the. vulnerable character of youth.

The endcrs of the brief will

argue that their proposal will , A i Prince Edvard HIM. Who are

not in any way encourage wide- spread salo of alcoholic bever- ages. since it will be restricted to established resorts. and that such tale. for the con- verdence of the tourists, will be conducted under strict resin-- tlon and "cone. While allowing for the good intentiom of the defenders. we must deplore their lack of a heir seem- lng disregard of human nature.

In. iudlmnl' lad: mun

that it will be courting unneces- sary difficulties by trying to en- act laws bencfitting only a few. when there are no clear - cut lines of demarcation or bound- aries. For instance. by what cri- terion will it be determined that one establishment fide tourist resort. qualified to he issued a liquor license. and another is not so determined? Or how will one designate a tou- rist? Is it. not realistic to pre- dict that if some hotel and re- staurant proprietors were to be given liquor icenses. very shortly all such proprietors in the province will be clamouring for the same privilege?

It is only fair to warn the taxpayer that if he quietly sanc- tions such in legislation, he would have to pay the brunt of the ex- penses that will accrue. It is . estimated that for every dollar

which comes into the province 4‘ as a result of the sale of alcohol. t the taxpayer spends a four

dollars for liquor-caused court cases. jail costs, hospitallm- xtion, child care. etc. But the biggest losers are wives. chil- dren, families. drunloards. alco- holics and employers. This is ‘ what the defenders of the brief are advocating. for the sake of a few tourist dollars. and for the cmwnience. of people who will spend no more than two weeks in our~province. Is the tofu-m (killer worth this tremen- dous waste?

As responsible citizens of

ever zealous for the continued peace and pros pm: vlnce. but not. at the expense of character. family living and decency. we would strongly em- phasize that the Temperance Act cannot be relaxed without my.

Prevention Seen As Best Cure

For Trichinosis

By Dr. Theodore R. Van Dellen

TRICHINOSIS is found only in man and other meet eating animals. The pig is blamed for spreading the disease because he is omniverous and eats any- thing. Old porky derives his worms from devouring either infected rats, rrw garbage. or swill that he contaminates with his own intestinal waste pro- ducts.

There are said to be 27 mil- llon persons in the United States who harbor the causative worms in muscle tissue. The infestation was acquired from underdone pork or sausage Imeat. The ma‘ority never were ill because they ate so lit- tle of the tainted meat,

Severe irritation occurs with

heavy infestation, leading init- lally to nausea. vomiting. and diarrhea. Later, fever. puffi-

ness about the eyes, fatigue, land severe muscular pain oc- 1cur. Aching ensues when the parasites reach their destina- tion and curl up in the muscle i fibers of the body. Humans do

inot pass along the disease but i

I could do so if they were canni- i’ balistic

i Diagnosis is and blood tests. The curled up icysts also can be found in a ‘muscle by removing a piece from the calf or lot! and sending it to the laboratory for microscopic study tbiopsyl.

There is no specific remedy ‘

for trichinosis. A purge is recommended if the person knows immediately that he has eaten infested pork. ACTH or jcortisone are used after the lparasites reach the muscles land the victim is acutely ill. i These hormones are of little value except to minimize the allergic and inflammatory as- pects of the disease.

Prevention is more import- ant. Trichinella in pork can be

killed by freezing at 0. degrees ‘

i F. for 24 hours or at 5 degrees _ F. for 20 days or by roasting at 140 degrees or higher for at least 80 minutes per pound, Do not eat sausage containing raw or undercooked pork. The other . side of the problems deals with i the source; the farm or piggery i ought to be free of rats and the 7food so processed that It con- tains none of these invaders.

Relief At

A government headed by Lib- eral Leader ester 3. Pearson is likely to get a lot of atten- tion and affection from the Ken- ‘ nedy administration and the ‘U.S. Congress. It may herald ,the beginning of the "golden '1 years" in Canada - U.S. rela- tions. 1 This is not only because of y the personal friendship between - President Kennedy and the Lib- ; eral leader but because the Ca- nadian election campaign ap- lpears finally to have driven home to the Americans the les- son that they no longer can take Canada’s co-operation and acquiescence for grante

For this achievement. many ‘ observers give Prime Minister ‘ Diefenbaker full credit. Cast in the role of stem critic of US. policy. he conjured up in , the minds of Americans the fear ; that Canada's friendship might ; he lost in a world where the US. could not count on many true friends.

U.S. newspaper. every US. ma. jor magazine and every major radio and television setwork had given detailed attention to the campaign and Its results. MANY TROUBLED

Many Americans appeared u. be troubled and perplexed by this sudden concentration of ai tention. Even if they did not know the facts involved, they appeared to be concerned and this concern was felt in Con. grass and In the administration.

There were perlods during the campaign when the Kennedy government was deeply wor. rled. There were troubles in Cuba and in Eurpe. in South- east Asia and at home. An un- friendly government on the northern border could only have added to the weight of troubles on Kennedy's back.

Thus. while Kennedy romaine. silent about Pearson‘s victory, there is inner relief In the White House. It Is relief mixed with anxiety, for Pearson has no clear majority and this rule in Parliament, if be Is able to form a government. could be subjected to the whims of a mi- nority. And there remains un< settled the question of whether Diefenbaker will step aside. CAUTION LIKELY

Under the circumstances, Kennedy is likely to move cau- tiously and quietly on issues al- fecting Canada. There ll likely to be a great deal of cross-bor- der diplomatic discussion be- fore any public statement is made; a great deal of consulta- tion before some new U.S. pol- icy is devised.

Canadian influence In US. olicy - making may increase suddenly. giving a new na- dian external affairs minister in great deal d l plomatio strength. Such influence as he may be able to wield in Wash- ington undoubtedly would be recognized by other countries, thereby adding to Canada's sta- ure in international forums.

But the outlook for Canada is not all mi and honey. The problem for any new Canadian government will be how to keep U.S. interest in Canada alive. Too much Kennedy confidence i a Pearson administration might lead to return of the pre- elcction status quo: a return to wavering interest in Canadian problems as US. eyes swing to more exciting and dangeroul reas.

Pearson promised swift action on many fronts in the first 60 days of his administration. This action could include mee g- wlth Prime Minister Macmillan and Kennedy. It might be wise in such meetings to exact from us. a firm understanding about closer consultations vigi- lantly observed before the 11.5.
