Mr. Dieienbalter 5 Visit While no stranger to this Prov- ince, today's visit of xii: John (2. l)ipfpnhak(trV Q.(”,. will be his first as national leader of the Progressive Fnnservative party, a position which he assumed last December on the Tt"lll'Pnlfllll of lion.

A national figure politirnllv. Mr. Diefenbaker has also won out- standiiig success in the lcE3l W"- fessinu. We are fortunate in Canada in having national leaders of high at- tainments and integrity, to whom politics is a dedicated profession and uhose concern for the welfare of the country is taken as a matter of r-nurse. There is no question as to Mr Diefenhaker's qualifications in ',pp5;s "ft5p(t(tiS' or of the esteem in which he is held by all our citizens. He has always been a welcome visi- for to this Province, and the present rwragintl is one of added interest in x icw of the position he occupies, and tho issues at stake in the campaltm now in progress. It is not necessary to share Mr. Diefenbaker's political views to be keenly concerned with what he has to say this evenin2- ll in to be hoped that his meeting-and those of other party leaders who may honour us with a visit-will be very largely attended, and his mes- sage weighed and considered in the light of condition: throughout the country. Blood Donor Week All proclaimed by His Worship the Mayor. this In Blood Donor Week In (lharloltctown and at least 1500 of our ;lf't.t)fl(l population in the city and vicinity will be required to reg- ister at the blood donor clinics to make the campaign a success. In preparation for the clinics. which will be held at the Clover Club. the Red Cross Blood Donor Committee in Fharlottetown organized the "Life Saver Flub" some three months ago. This venture has been very popular and many ”Iifc savers" have joined the club through existing organiza- tions. The Charlottetown Blood Donor Committee. under the leader- ship of Mr. F. A. S. Jones. has left no stone unturned to acquaint t.he general public of their opportunity to provide life itself to their fellow- man-perbaps even to themselves. A very full four days of activity has been arranged. Special lighting effects will be used on the Canadian Legion Building where clinics are to he held. Bands will parade and play each evening to call attention to the clinics. The automobile dealers are Itagtng their 19S7lSprInl Parade of Auto: on 'nieaday"afternoon. The local labor unions are having a spec- Something Unique Speaking before a news-galhcrin: agency United States Secretary 01 State Dulles made this observation: "History suggests that a conflict as basic as that dividing the world of freedom a nd international Com- munism ultimately erupts in war." He then went on to say that "that suggestion we reject." No doubt Mr. Dulles is quite sin- "core in rejecting the inevitability of war between the Soviet Union and the West. But. unfortunately, liisimgv is not sidetracked so easily, and it will be a miracle if the controversies. stresses and strains which now trou- ble the two worlds do not sooner or later erupt into global conflict. No one uanls that to happen: hill. 0'1 mp other hand. no man living can answer the question: "How else is the issue to be decided?" And here's another thing licariu: on the samp question. In all luuuan history there never yet has been an iiislaiice where an armament race did not result in war. lndccd. unr is the logical objective of the ac- cunilating of arms. Whether that nine-ciive be stated in terms of de- fcucc. as usually it is. or ulictlicr it be stated in terms of outriizhl M1- grcssinn, as has been the case on It few occasions. the final result has always been the same--war. This does not necessarily mean that. the present arms race must ink; a pre-determined course. just because it has been that way in ill? past. Rut. if it doesn't. and if one day the vast amount of armaments which now clutter up the worlds arsenals be scrapped and destroyed. it will be an unique event in the history of man. What Accidents Cost Monetary losses are but one fac- tor in the toll taken by traffic ac- cidents across Canada. Yet thesc losses in themselves are truly stag- gering. They do not fall only upon those who are so unfortunate as to be directly involved; they fall. in some measure upon evcryonc. Some interesting calculations appears in the current issue of the Imperial Oil Review. when an accident nct'lirs- nr lic- cause accidents may occur.-a great many public services (for which everyone pays) have to be maintain- ed. Thcrc arc the law enforcement. officers. the I.-.ourt,s that try the cases (and frame accidents are now becoming an extremely high pro- portion of these cases). the hospitals that do their best to repair the in- juries, the overhead cost of insur- ance. In addition to these costs, there are also the losses that the nation as a whole suffers from those who are laid up through traffic injuries. These may Include loss of wages due to temporary inability, or lower wages due to permanent. or partial disability. All this. of course. is heavily multiplied in the case of death. The average age of persons killed in traf- fic accidents in (ianada is 37. if we assume that the 2.799 persons killed in 1955 (the last year for which complete figures are available) would have earned an average of 550 a week from .'l7 until the age of 65, the total wage loss alone would amount to T245 million. This is equal to about one-third of the Canadian share of the St. Lawrence Seaway. EDITORIAL NOTES If soldiers ever have to go to war again, they will find that at least one chone has been made far less burden- some than in the past. A trench- diggtng machine has been devised which can dig 20 4-foot deep tlirenches in less than a minute. A foxhole can be prepared in 30 sec- ooh.

R 1. peuoiu la the nation. la. of course, is not an Ideal number. but it is considered a standard iunuun of need. we haven't. quite reached the lure on a national average. but we are getting close. The Health Information Foundation reported recently that the national avorlge in now 4.2 beds for every 1.0M persona. Thla rnpresentl croau of mo per cent over the IBM ratio of only 3-5 bid!- Back in 1940. there were It states below the then national av- erage of 3.5 beds and 3 states were under the accepted stand- ud. As of last year )1 states wen below till new national average and only '18 were under the 4.5 ratio. what does all this mean to you? well. if you live in the Mountain states. for example. you have a heifer chance of getting into a hoa- piul nn any particular data than you would if you lived In the East Smith Central States. The Mountain states have M general hospital beds for every l.o00 residents. In the But cen- tral States. the ratio is only 8.1. FEWEST BED!

As the Foundation points out. an Inadequate number of bed: not only can cause delays in admit- ting patients. but it may even make a certain numbe of admis- sions impossible. thus lowering the effectiveness of hospital care in the community. QUESTION AND ANSWER R.L.' My husband. who is 73 years old. sleops most of the day. What can be the cause of this? Answer. There are many elus- oe for excessive sleepiness. it may be due to constipation. but this is not a very common caim. Lack of outdoor exercise or eating the wrong diet. too much al- cohol and worry may cause It. A circulatory dlntrubance and thy- roid deflciency are other causes. Your husband is in need of a thorough physical examination to determine the cause of his diffi- eu ta. THE UNAWARI Spring waved tier soft. impartial hand. Carouing winter-crusted land.
