CHARLOTTETOWN, THURSDAY, OCTOBER 30, Unexplained Conduct The manoeuvre on the part of the Jones Government last session to throw out the grain elevator resolution may well prove to be an _im- portant issue in the coming election campaign. ln the first place, there was no conceivable rea- son-—except a partisan one—far not-giving the resolution 100 per cent support in the Legisla- ture. lt anticipated what has now actually hap- pened, with respect to the increase in feed gram prices, and also what is about to happen when the freight assistance on these grains IS remov- e . .- d During wartime all grains were under price control, but when the price of wheat was increas- gj last Spring subsidies were allowed growers of oats, barley and feed wheat to encourage pro- duction. These subsidies amounted to Z5 cents a bushel on barley and feed wheat, l0 cents a bushel on oats. ln addition Eastern farmers ob- tained somc freight assistance which is l0 bl! discontinued after the present crop year. But feed grains remained subject to ceiling prices unt‘l a few days ago, and were not traded on the exchanges. Now_all controls are removed, feed grain prices are as free as the wind; they go on the exchange for trading and are subject to laws of supply and demand. As there is a known shortage of feed grains this year, coupled with an exceptionally heavy demand here in the East and stocks are low be- cause traders and Prairie growers anticipated just the action that has been taken, the expecta- tion is that within a very short time feed prices will advance considerably more than the amounts of the subsidy. That means that our livestock producers will have to pay through the nose. They will be in an even worse position than pro- ducers in other eastern Provinces, as we depend more on livestock production and are the only Province without grain elevator facilities. Why any Provincial administration should oppose a resolution urging Federal aid in this matter is difficult to understand. No explanation of the course followed by the Government and its sup- porters was given in the House; but the electors now have the chance of putting the question, and of insisting on an answer. lio Marshall Plan-Jet Speaking in Boston recently, General Mar- shall took'the opportunity of correcting an all- too-general misconception. He said: "There has been constant reference to a Marshall Plan. The reference to me personally was unfortun- ate, buf the reference to a plan was definitely misleading. There was no plan; there was a suggestion." General Marshall, of course, went on to add that while there is no plan now there is hope for one later on. The sixteen notions of Europe have presented a balance sheet of their needs; the Stale Department at Washington, and rep- resentative groups of other departments-Com- merce, Labor, Agriculture and the lnterior—-are now trying to find out to what extent such needs can he met. When they have completed their work their recommendations, in appropriate form, will go to Congress. How long all this will take remains to be teen. ”Remaining ta be seen also," comments the Ottawa JournoI—"and it is the important thing-—is what action will be taken by Congress. ln the meantime, in our humble view, if is a pity to sec so much‘ wishful thinking in Europe, and even in Canada, over what the so-called Marshall Plan will bring. Our bet would be that Congress will not be as open-handed as many seem to assume; our fear that when it does act it may be too late with too little." British Auto Taxation Mr. Dalton, British Chancellor of the Ex- chequer, lras announced a radical change in automobile taxation which will affect the whole pattern of British automobile production. On alli new cars British owners at home will in fut- ure pay tax. at a flat rate of £i0 ($40) a year instead of the farmer 25s. ($5) "per horsepower." Under the former system, the most popular de- niand in Britain has been for low or medium powered cars and, since they had to meet this demand in the home market, British automobile manufacturers did not find it worth while to produce in quantity, at a moderate price, the kind of high powered car that is popular abroad. For years there were complaints that the graded horsepower tax penalized British exports. Now the Chancellor of the Exchequer has met these complaints. Since the purpose of the concession is to help exports, old cars continue tov be taxed in the old way, and this will prevent a sudden drop in revenue to the Exchequer. Ultimately, the British auto user may hope to enjoy a larger, more comfortable car through the change, but at present two-thirds of production is earmark-N Though production is almost’ ed for export. back to pre-wor levels, this still leaves very lit- tle for the "home buyer. ‘llow To Trsls A tthlhl educate means to draw out, not drive in- rlpross. Men's general refusal to face the facts of life is the result of deep-seated neuroses, Dr. Kubie, clinical professor of psychiatry and men- tol hygiene ot Yale University, says, and these neuroses "powerful and unporceiyod" acted also to "explicit for their own purposes even the fin-" est products of the humon spirit end intelli- gence, turning these to destructive uses." Ot vital necessity if civilization is to be saved, he says, is o system of education which will give emotional moturity—the ability to face and conquer and not run away from emotional prob- lems—as well as intellectual training. "Long ago,“ he says, "St; Augustine pointed out that the innocence of childhood was due not to the pur- ity of their hearts, but to the weakness of their limbs. And it is ancient wisdom that the child is father to the man. But we are loath to draw fiozn these sound premises the inescapable con- clusion that the evil in the child fathers the evil in the adult world. We have not yet learned how to free the child from evil. We only over- pow.~r him, forcing his rebellious conflicts un- derground. Thus we force our children to be un- aware of their burden of angry destructivcness. We teach them manners to cover their prim- itive savagery. We make them polite instead of making them kindly and generous and good. And as long as this continues our civilization, our culture, and our morality will have little stability, and little on which to pride itself." — EDITURIAL NOTES -.

Could they be made, Mr. King asked? The firm replied apologotically. "No." The French fabric lor stiff fronts was off the market. While the Prime Minister wor- ried about the shortage and the manufacturers promised to do their, best to find two, size l7 dress shirts, a shirt salesman was listening to the "surplus" woes of Jack Bradley,‘ manager of a store in Paris.

James Gardiner is to come to the Province on the eve of the coming election campaign on behalf of the Jones Govern- ment. ‘ It may be that. the visit. is only a coincidence, but it. would be well for the Jones Government. to look over the Election Act and in par- ticular to refer to Section 210 whereby it is provided that. non- resldents may not Lake any part in a Provincial election in this Province under payment of the penalty provided of a. fine up to two hundred ($200.00) dollars or in default of payment of fine, 1m- prlsonment from three to six months. The Jones Government has been very adept in disregarding the law in many instances since they have come into power some four years ego. These notable instances ivere in respect. of very important. and substantial rules of the law under which we are governed. To cite several. there were: the proclam- ation by Ordev-ln-Councll chang- ing the Prohibition Act. after the Lieutenant. Governor, B. W. Le- Page, refused assent to the am- endment; the proclamation by Or- cler-ln-Cauncil in respect of the Divorce Act. and the taking over of the Canada Packers plant. by Order-ln-Council. 1t. l5 quesllon. able whether any one of these proceedings by the Jones Govern- ment was e valid and legal pra- ceeding. The amendment to the Prohibition Act was passed by the Legislature but the Lieutenant Governor refused assent and at that point. the Act. became defunct and could not. be resurrected by any Order-ln-Councll. The Divorce Bill was introduced in the Legislature and failed to pass the House. but despite this. an Order-ln-Council was passed proclaiming an ancient. Statute. Clearly, this was a disregard at the expressed desires o! the Legis- leture. 396911“? an Order-in-Councll was passed taking over the Can- ada Packers plant. No legislative authority exists for such a step and there is not any foundation tn 1 or any precedent. in prac- tise for such an outstanding viola- Wm 01' rights by the executive. The disregard of law by those llllflrgfid with the administration of law and justice ls not a desir- able thlng in any community. It lessons the effect and respect of all ‘laws. nnd it. would appear that a tlmehas been reached virhen the people of this Province should elect an administration that will hot only follow the Constitutional Rules but will set, an example in its respect for law that. will be emulated by all the people 01' um Province.

Regulations For Christmas Parcels (United Kin-gdonr Information) All parcels entering the United Kingdom are liable to the appro- priate rates of duty ‘and or pur- chase tax. There is no exemption for Christmas gifts, wedding gifts, or any other sort at‘ gifts. Nor is there any exemption for parcels below a certain value. The conditions applying to gift, parcels are:— (a) They must not weigh more than 22 lbs. (20 lbs. lf to bc sent. by parcel post.) (b) They must be bona. fide un- solicited glflts, and must be marked as such. (c) They must. bear an ltemlsed list. of contents. 8a far as concerns duty and pur- ‘chase tax. the main points are:-— (a) No duty or tax is at present levied on food parcels. (b) Infants’ clothing (of cotton or wool) and used clothing whtcn shows o. reasonable amount of weer are completely tax free. (c) No duty ls levied on Canad- tan goods, with the exception of liquor, tobacco, and a few luxury items such as silks (and nylon) furs, perfumes, wat/.'.hes_ grama- phone records. etc. (d) Purchase tax is levied on al- most everythlng except (u) and (b) above. It. is difficult. to give any useful summary, but speeklry very broadly. ' 1.0a basically essential items (clothing of cotton and wool plain crodcerty etc.) the rate ts 16 2-‘3 per cent. ll. On slightly less essential, bul still necessary items (hats. gloves. toys, piece goods, pens and pencils etc.) the rate ts 33 1-3’ per cent. Most. articles of ordinary daily use come into this category. ill. On luxury articles (silk, fur, jewellery. cut. glass’ em). the rate lo 100 per cent (or in a few cases. nylons being the most important, 68 2-3 per cent.) (e) Information on rates of duty and purchase tax ls ‘obtainable from the Foreign ‘Tariffs Division, Department of ‘It-ado and Com- merce, or from the United Kins:- dom High Commissioner's Office or the United Kingdom Information Office, Ottawa. As regards the surrender of rou- pons, the United Kingdom Customs state that "it. is not. normally the practice at. present to ask for tho surrender of coupons tn respect of gifts or articles subject to ration- ing ln the U. K." Duty can not be prepaid ln Cen- oda. ‘the only way to relieve the recipient of the burden of psying duty ts to send sn international money order or other similar nego- tiable paper for the aproprtste amount. _ s Palestine ,- III No scheme for modifying the clash of rights as they are under- stood by the parties ln Palestine can be divorced from the question of its implementation. It seems to us essential that. in determining the nature of a settlement the Ae- sembly should also determine .t.he measures to implement it. It would be unreasonable to ask Hie Majes- ty's Government to carry the sole and full responsibility for the ad- ministration of Pslestine'and for enforcing changes which the Unit.- eu Nations regard as necessary. dcrstond it, that. the United King- dom should carry such responsibil- ity throughout an tndeflnte transl- tion period until ' -‘ pendencg l; attained, acting under the supervis- ion of the United Nations to en- force United Nations pollcy and 1191118 HBSiBMd by s programme of aid as mentioned by the distin- guished delegate o! the United States, including the poislblg u. sistance of e. voluntarily recruited international pollcy force. My Gov- ernment doslre that. lt ehould_ be clear beyond all doubt and Btrublfl-y ulty that not only 1e it our decision to wind up the mandate but that within a limited period we shall withdraw. They made only two qualifications. First, that. in the event of a set- tlement between Jews and Arabs they would. lf so desired, continue the administration of Palestine through the limited period of the transfer to independence. Second, that they would consider en invita- tion to participate in giving effect to s settlement in partnership with other members of the United Na- tions. In short, Hts Majesty's Gov- ernment will not accept the re- sponslbillty for enforcement either alone or in the major role. They still hope that in view of their firm intention to withdraw both the Jewish end Arab com- munities will be seized with the IPBIlblBS of the situation and ep- rreclate to the full the unhappy consequences that can flow to themselves and their country by falling to agree on the future of Palestine. The United Kingdom Government most. earnestly hopes that. the discussions of the past, weeks have revealed the trend of world opinion end the dangers of a continuing struggle bet-ween the two peoples and that their repre- sentatives and the United Nations will quickly move to some accom- modation which will bring har- mony and stability tn this part. of the Middle East. It. le s new situa- tion confronting the parties con- cerned. The weeks of discussion nere should make this hope not. more unrealistic (as it has been described) but less. Moreover we trust that anxlctlfl! now felt in the Middle East. about the present deliberations of the United Nations and their possible outcome will not lead to military preparation or deployment of force amongst the peoples concerned. We hope that. no steps will be taken mar, will be provocative and result in violence. Certainly His Majesty's Government has given and will glve no encouragement or assistance to gallons which will inflame the sit- uation tn the Middle East. Rum- ours and assertions that. any such encouragement has been elven 17¢ entirely without foundflllflfl- A Dangerous Factor Another dangerous factor in the present, situation is the traffic in illegal immigration into Palestine and the connlvance of some gov- ernments ln the provision by their nationals of ships, arms and money to defeat. the mandatory in the very difficult task of upholding the rule of law in Palestine. This factor greatly influences the feeling of the Arab world and we irresponsible influences at. work which cannot readily be controlled In this last. period. and in dis- charge of its duties’ the British au- charities will have no easy task in controlling the problem of immi- gration into Palestine particularly in the face of the bitter resentment of one of the parties that. immigra- Lioncontlnues at all and the‘ 1n- cllgnatlon of the other thfll’. it 1S i" too limited. In any event, lt must. ‘oe recognised that. the immigration question ls one which arouses bit.- ler feelings ln Palestine and that proposals for a chanZB in l-lle status quo should not be lightly put forward by those who have no re- sponslblllty for the c Qqlleflces- The complications of this prob- lem are known and the difficulties of the mandatory in carrying its difficult and onerous responsibility should not. be increased. My dele- gation expresses the hope that the Committee will regard as an ur- gent. contribution to the solution of the Palestine problem the resolu- tlon we have submitted concerning displaced persons 1n Europe and particularly that. aspect of the mat- Ler concerning the absorption of Jews and other displaced persons in countries besides Palestine. No ec- tian ld- more calculdted to help the Arab people to a fair appreciation of our‘ slncerltyln this problem of rcfuyres and Jewish displaced per- sons and our sincerity about the Palestine problem than action on this resolution. My Government will continue l0 make available whet experience and knowledge it. possesses for the use of the United Nations tn its scorch for the solution to this problem. Our resources can be used to assist tn arriving etqan equitable and just plsn. ‘ But I should be untan- to the Commit.- ree if I did not‘ repeat that. the sand has started to run and that. conclusions should not be unduly delayed and the problem of imple- mentation should beconcelved as a parallel study andlntegrsl part of the Committee's work.

Britain lnl any case ls unable to sustain a. burden too heavy for any manrla-l tory to discharge, especially when its responsibilities are made the joyecl by the nationals of l states to employ every means defeat her efforts. This problem should be studied at once for it is of the utmost. 1m- portanee that. ln the possible ab- sence of agreement between the Jews and Arabs the complicated task of withdrawal should, not be the prelude to disorder and disin- tegration of the public services es- sential for the normal life of Pales- line. Without suitable authorities to negotiate and transfer responsibil- ity to, the preservation of institu- tions, communications and public works, the observation of law and fundamental services irccomc prob- lems of major (fifth-filly. some pro- cedure should be svorkocl out. by the substitute authority which will i ensure proper safeguards for the ; preservation of good order and the requirements necessary to give ef- fective securlty forces for the pol- ice and other measures which the situation may require. We hope that when a pollcy Ls worked out as representing the; consensus of international opinion‘, bath parties will respect. lt. and not resort to methods which wm destroy security and create chaos and violence in Palestine. 1n that unhappy eventuality the United Na- tions must control a situation dan- gerous to peace. We hope that all concerned wl realise that. their ultimate best interests lie in a set- l clement. that. can be worked in goodwill and good nelghborliness. My delegation will have the op- portunity of expre§lllg its view on certain of the proposals embodied‘ in the resolution before the Com- mittee. We desire both now and in the future to live ln friendly coop- eration with Arabs and Jews alike. , I have tried to restate the position , IO 'of my Government and to suggest] that we view our membership all this organisation as a responsibility l not lightly carried.
