MAKES. PRESENTATION At the conclusion of the dinner Mayor J.D. Stewart on behalf of the City of Charlottetown present- sd Mr. Muir with a piece of Island homecraft. an aluminum tray be ing the crest of the City and sur- rounded by maple leaves. The tray was the work of Mrs. Donald Stew- art of Bunbury. Mayor Stewart told the Bank President that the City Corpora- tion has carried their account w the Royal Bank for the past it ty years and facetiously remarked. ''I want to convince you. Sir, that we can produce some thing more than overdrafts here." The following is the text of Mr- Muir's address: "One of the philosopher. said: wherever you are going you must "It seems to me that there can be no surer way of causing head- acha than by storing at any one aspect or section of our economy so steadfastly that it fills our whole view. "No one. perhaps. is more swars than I am of the economic differ- ences that exist in various parts of this country. As head of a banking institution which has branches ll every province and economic area. and as one who travels a great deal within the country. I am only too well aware of our regional pro blems. "We have divisions imposed upon us by nature: the vertical division of our ;ountry by mountains and "Th! . e luvs divisions that are due to the nstune of our settlement French and English. We have divi- sions tlue to climate and soil and geology: our agricultural areas. on. forests. our mines. our fisheries We have divisions due to distance. with regions of population and pro- duction separated by thousands of miles. "The regional problems are so tual and substantial. and I would not dismiss them lightly. Most of them are due to factors beyond our control, but they all point for their solution to a larger problem over which we have control, the problem of attaining national unity and maintaining it in the face ti economic diversity. CANADIAN UNITY . For this reason I should like in offer you a few comments on the question of Canadian unity and to inquire into its economic basis. "And then, because problems can unite us as well as divide us, I would like to deal with two econo- mic problems of a national nature: matters in which all Canadians have a stake and an interest In these parlous times. I refer to re cent developments in Canada's in- ternational investment position in Canada's foreign trade- As you shall hear, I do not believe that these are problems of crucial sign ificance at present, but they have been treated as vexinl Klllestims by a good many people. ”My flrst.quesi' is : anthem any real bases. particularly codi- omic bases. for national unity in a country like ours. with its greet geographical diversity. its wide and uneven distribution of resour- ces. and its cultural differences?

This was .nut in accord with British- Frcnch views that the canal could nnt be surrendered to Egypt's President Nasser. nor with ls- rael's view that she must hold on to the Gaza strip. The dispute immobilized Ham- marskjold's mission to Cairo for a full day. President Eisenhower said the United Statcs opposes any inter- vention in Egypt by Russia or Red China.
