No Need For Haste We trust, for the sake of all concerned, that there is nothing whatever in the rumors of a pre- election appointment of a new Lieu- tenant Governor of this Province. Premier Shaw, whose name is as- sociated with these rumors, would make an excellent successor to His Honour Lieutenant Governor Hynd- man, who has filled the office with outstanding credit and distinction; but there is a time for all things. If a change in Her Majesty’s repre- sentative is due to be made short- ly, let it be after the federal elect- ion campaign fever has run its course. There is no need for un- seemly haste, and much need for ensuring that the prestige of the office be maintained. We are not unaware that ap- pointments of lieutenant governors in other provinces have been made since February 5, when the Diefen- baker Government was defeated on the floor of Parliament. Senators, ambassadors, judges and others have also been appointed since Par- liament was dissolved. We think these appointments were open to grave objection, since the Govern- ment which made them was, to all intents and purposes, a caretaker government and had no right to dis- tribute such patronage gifts. Ex- cept in cases of emergency, it should be content to make temporary ar- rangements. leaving permanent ap- pointments to the incoming admin- istration. But in this case, with a. federal election only a few days away, the grounds for objection would be still more valid. We have hesitated before mak- ing this comment, since we are deal- ing. after all, with rumors and not with facts. It is to be hoped, indeed, that the facts, as they finally shape themselves, will have the effect of showing this comment to have been unnecessary. Meanwhile, the rumors have been so persistent, and 0c, casioned so much discussion that it is impossible longer to ignore them. The views we now express are held very widely, and it is one of the duties of a newspaper, even when it is unpleasant, to mirror pub- lic opinion in such circumstances. Vancouver's Example British Columbia is regarded as the stronghold of the New Demo- cratic Party. but there is no reason to hold the followers of Mr. Doug- las responsible for the disgraceful treatment accorded to Liberal Lead- er Pearson in his campaign appear- ance at the Vancouver Forum on Monday night. The Canadian Press describes it as “a deliberate at- tempt by Communists, ban-the- bombers. radical socialists and others” to howl Mr. Pearson down and break up the rally. The New Democrats are against the use of nuclear weapons, and their policies are socialistic; but that doesn’t make them rowdies. They have shown themselves to be as conscientious as other parties in upholding democratic principles In debate. We hold no brief for their political views, but we think they are entitled to the full benefit of the doubt in this case. Vancouver is getting a really bad name as a tough place In which to exercise the privilege of free speech. It will be recalled that a near-riot occurred when Prime Min- ister Diefenbaker spoke there in the 1962 campaign. Last week, too, Ir. Diefenbeker had a noisy so. eeption in the same auditorium. but nothing like the affair of bat year. .I‘, y. of Circulation. Isl‘. or like the pandemonium that broke out Monday night at Mr. Pearson's meeting. . Dim~wit demonstrations of this kind are subversive in every sense of the word. The worst aspect of them is that they are staged under false colors—as anti-nuclear demon- strations, and what not. They are plainly nothing but an excuse for the hoodlum element of a commun- ity to go on the rampage. It is surely no light matter of concern to Canadians everywhere that rowdyism should be gaining the upper hand in any part of the country. Where this has happened elsewhere, it has been the prelude to iron-fisted rule under some form of dictatorship. That was 'how Hitler gained power in pre-war Germany, and other instances could be cited of more recent date. It was because the people themselves tolerated such displays of intolerance and misrule in the first place, that they reaped the more appalling consequences in the end. New NATO Problems When Mr. Diefenbaker returned to Canada from his meetings in the Bahamas with Prime Minister Mac- millan and President Kennedy, he offered his view that the Nassau meeting would result in a major change in the defense strategy of the NATO alliance. This statement has been widely questioned, but it would seem that such change will be a prime subject for discussion at the NATO ministerial meeting which opens in Ottawa on May 22. Certainly it would appear that much more is to be considered than the allocation of defense duties, im- portant as these loom in Canadian minds at present. The London Times diplomatic correspondent says the aim of the alliance is to present firm proposals for establishing a multinational force by the time of the meeting. These proposals, set- ting up questions of policy, command and control, would be available for examination at the Ottawa confer- ence. ‘ The Times’ man reports that in Europe there is a rising demand among the non-nuclear nations for a greater say in nuclear policy, and they see their chance in the pro- posals envisaged at the Kennedy- Macmillan meeting in Nassau. These would give an opportunity to re- fashion the NATO command system and allow others besides the nuclear powers an influence in making nuc- lear policy. Commenting on this statement, the Ottawa Journal notes that the election has made Canadians better informed on nuclear questions. Whoever leads the next government will be expected'to have firm opin- ions on the subject at the forth- coming NATO meeting—opinions that will be in context with this na» tion’s past record in international affairs and our willingness to con- tinue to play a useful role. Health Week This is National Health Week, sponsored by the Health League of Canada in cooperation with local departments of heath, and it is one of a. number of successful health education programs currently being supported in Canada. It should serve, as Governor General Vanier suggests in a Health Week message, to remind all Canadians that life and health go hand in hand. With health anything a e em s possible; without it everything seems im- possible. Health is the key to so many doors! World Health Day falls on April 7. and is included as part of Nap tional Health Week. This day com- memorates the establishing of the World Health Organization at San Francisco in 1948. Officers of the Health League of Canada have been active during the past year in pioneer work to spread the formation of citizens’ committees to other member na- tions of the World Health Organiza- tion. Theme of World Health Day this year is "Hunger: Disease of Millions.” If, for the most part, we enjoy freedom from this disease in Can- ada, let us remember the appalling toll it takes in many other parts of the world.

I always maintain that all men in high public life (either party) the challenge and responsibility of such can little be imagined. We are all human beings and as such. have our faults and fall- Ings. Even the Prime Minister so admits: but why emerge on them? The soft answer Is so much more to be admired and the helping hand Is always a joy and pays big dividends. A man of ' Mr Diefenbaket's character subjected to the crude actions and language imposed by the Opposition during this campaign must very hard to endure. The general opinion Is that he has campaign with the dignity and truth that is expected of a man In his high position. He has seldom referred to the Opposition In anything but a gentlemanly manner. a we are to hold up the standards of our country we must always respect our P r I m e Minister, while he holds office and no matter who holds that high pos- ition. Mr. Diefenbaker took over this "Bankrupt Island" and he has done wonderful things for It. I do not think we have to go very far to prove that. He asks no bouquets or thanks for doing this tremendous Job for Canada and Canadians. The people who have profited by It mud certainly stand by him now. so he c a a carry out his well organized pro- gram for the next five years and so put Canada “on the Map". Otherwise, I fear: I am.

They lov- ed to travel to Greece and west- em Asia Minor where profes- sional guides expounded th e history and legends of Athens. Delphi. Ephesus. and other cen- Americans ters. Greek cities revived and stag- ed longdormant festivals solely to attract Roman tourists. 0b- scure celebrations became pop. ular if they offered 3 pictures- que or startling ritual. 0 d d I y. promoters ignored such obvious opportunities as the 500th anni- versary of the Peloponnesian ar. A well . healed Roman never had to carry more than 50 den- arii in cash because banks issu- ed travelers' checks, albeit at the considerable fee of 12 per cent of their value.

Crackdown On Cuban Raids By Hamid Morrison Canadian Press Staff Writer In cracking down on Cuban coastal raids by U.S.-based ex- Iles. President Kennedy argues such raids do more harm than good—that they lead to a_ tight- ening of the police state inside Cuba an d reprisals against those who oppose Premier Cas- e-e ro. This argument has a fimiilar ring. Something similar was raised during the 1956 Hunga- rian revolution when the West- ern powers withheld help from the Freedom Fighters, saying Western Interference would merely increase Communist re- prisals against the revolution- The Hungarian revolution fol- lowed ringing U.S. declarations that the Communist "captive" states must be set free. That cry somehow has become muf- fled over the years. Hungary and the others are still behind the Iron Curtain. PREDICTS FREEDOM Following the abortive Bay of Pigs Cuban invasion two years ago. Kennedy declared that the rebels should not give up hope; that Cuba one day would be free. That encouraged the hit and - run 'raIds and increased Havana’s uneasiness about the possibility of further invasions. Suddenly last fall. Kennedy found himself confronted by a powerful array of Soviet nu- clear mlssiles in Cuba. In the negotiations that followed, So- viet Premier Khrushchev with- l THE VOICE OF SPRING I stir the dreaming streams to life. And wake the sleeping flowers; I clothe the earth in r o b e s of green And send the healing showers. I fill men's hearts with n e w- born hope, The children's hours with pleas- ure; And give impartially to each A part of all my treasure. —F. H. MacArthur drew the missiles and bombers saying Kennedy had agreed not to invade Cuba In the future. Kennedy said he had never made such a promise ausa Castro had refused to allow on- site inspection to make sure all the offensive weapons were re- moved. But in fact all of Kennedy's public utterances since the So- viet weapons were withdrawn appear to substantiate Khrush- chev's statements. Kennedy re- fused to bow to Republican de- mands for reimposltion of a Caribbean quarantine against Cuba when It was disclosed that Russia still had thousands of troops on that . Ken- nedy said a blockade would be grounds for war. e now has rmtricted the exile raiders fol- lowing Soviet complaints that a Russian ship was crippled In a Cuban harbor. _ PULL OUT MISSIL A the time of the Cuban crisis last fall. Khrushchev pro- posed that the U.S. withdraw Jupiter missiles from Turkey and Italy. Kennedy rejected this demand. But In a recent move that aroused suspicion among his cnitics at home and abroad. Kennedy ordered dia- mantling of the Jupiters, say- ing they are obsolete and the area would be better eerved by Polaris submarines patrolling e Mediterranean. ’ In French secret pen and n- areas. The speed widt which Kea- nedy Is removing the European Jupiter-s and the crackdown against the Cuban exiles could perhaps add weight to these suspicions. AAAA A A A A A AA A A A A A AAAA .
