NOV. 14, 1953 (SPEAK LOTTlt)TOWVN A lloavy Session Parliament has a great deal of work ahead of it according to the forecast con- tained in the Speech from the Throne. That statement was admirably explicit about what Members can expect in the way of Government legislation. That fact should speed up consideration of particular meas- Lires for there will be less of a tendency to discuss irrelevant matters when it is known that a more suitable opportunity will pre- sent itself later. A great deal of time will be required for such legislation as the revised Criminal Code, which was not fully dealt with at the last session. and the 10-yearly revision of the Bank Act, which may receive little publicity but is highly important as well as requiring the most careful study. Not mentioned in the Speech. because it is a matter for the House and not the Govern- ment. is revision of the Standing Orders. That cannot be done without full consid- eration but if done properly it should lead to a considerable improvement in the ef- ficiency of procedure. The object should be to secure maximum consideration of all legislative and financial measures, coni- bined with the prompt dispatch of busi- ness. I The Canadian North is coming in for more and more attention. Only a few years ago it was regarded as wasteland. inhabited only by a few Eskimos and traders. Today it is a rapidly expanding field for minerals and a highly strategic area. These changes must be reflected in the administrative organization. Social measures occupy an important place in legislative proposals, including housing and assistance for the totally dis- abled. Apparently there is no present in- tention of proceeding with anything in the nature of national health insurance. ”l'rliioeTETdwaril lsITnd Produces" . In these days of highly competitive in- 'dustry, a great deal depends upon well di- rected publicity in reaching available mar- kets ahd developing new ones. Some time ago we had occasion to refer to an admir- able booklet on our tourist trade pre- pared by the Prince Edward Island Travel Bureau. Now we have received a copy of another fine publication. entitled "Prince Edward Island Produces," issued by the Provincial Department of Industry and Natural Resources, which reflects much credit upon all concerned in its prepara- tion and publication. It is illustrated with dozens of new photographs of Island farm- ing, fishing, processing and manufacturing activities, beautifully laid out and repro- duced on glossy paper, with brief textual descriptions which are both readable and highly informative. Altogether. this booklet gives an im- enty-five per cent of the Islands lobster catch. or close to 30,000 cases, are pro- cessed annually, in addition to some 3,000 cases of lobster paste. In the canning of berries, one plant at Mount Stewart oper- ates on a round-the-clock basis during the strawberry season, turning out 800 cases in twenty-four hours. A Charlottetown firm has come up with the first concentrated milk product plant in the Atlantic Prov- inces; from the draggers used by Island fishermen have developed a greatly expand- ed industry in the processing of fillets, fish meal and other products; two Island woolen mills turn out top quality blankets and other material from home-produced wool; a large fertilizer plant in Charlottetown supplies a primary requirement for the potato industry, while numerous other en- terprises are connected, directly or in- directly, with our farming and fishing op- erations. It is to be hoped that this inspiring brochure will be studied not only by pros- pective purchasers of Island products, but by investors as well, who will find here a rewarding field for further industrial de- velopmelil. The possibilities in this connec- tion have as yet only been scratched. We are on the eve of much bigger things. With improved transportation facilities we can support a greatly increased population and become one of the most prosperous Provinces of Canada. Efforts directed to this end should prove of far greater ulti- mate value than going hat in hand to Ot- tawa periodically for subsidy adjustments. ize upon our just provincial claims by show- ing enterprise and initiative in helping our- selves. and proving to all and sundry that the advantages bestowed upon us by Prov- idence, as one of the most bountifully pro- ductive food areas in the world, have not been misplaced.

The University of Leipzig refused him a law degree be- cause of his youth. Nuremberg, however. not only conferred the degree but offered him a professorial chair. He did much work on law reform and political subjects. For inventing an intricate calculating ma- chine lie was elected to the Royal Society of London. His philosophy included the concept of the ultimate reality of all sub- stance being force. I I O prcssivc picture of our progress in recent years. Noted. for example, is the fact that with the switch from horse to tractor pow- er Island farmers have stepped up l8"'-l production to the point where it now ex- ceeds 530,000,000 for field crops alone. and that from 1920-1952 inclusive, a total of some 626,000 acres of seed potatoes have been planted for inspection, nliiklflil 3 yeal" ly average of 19,000 acres.

"If the test calnc suddenly," he stressed re- cently, "we would pay a bitter price for our amateur standing." In any case it would be much better to thresh out the question while time is available rather than - in the throes of an emergency. 9 ii: 51 Plebiscites are at best an unsatisfactory method of reaching political decisions. There is no opportunity for moving amend- ments to the proposition and in most cases the alternatives given do not commend themselves to a majority of those polled. The Queen's County Fish and Game As- sociation would 'do a greater service to con- servation by threshing out the numerous problems involved in setting dates for open seasons rather than advocating a Province- wide plebiscite. A new and seemingly highly successful technique has been developed in the use of aircraft to wage,war on the ravaging lo- custs of Kenya; They are attacked now while in flight, not when the pests are im- mature and on the ground. The British Aircraft Society reports that in one test; in Kenya light aircraft "of the type usually used for week-end flying" sprayed 50 gal- uons of insecticide containing 55 pounds of active poison on a locust swarm in the Kenya highlands. In a survey the next day it was estimated that 60 to 80 tons of the pests had been killed--the count Certainly we shall be more likely to i'eal- I Members implies that the Government pays.

River- men still ride the log booms; bush pilots and cat.-train drivers no performing deeds of during the old larint.-twirling cowboys never matched; construction men are building pipe-lines .roads. and power projects in previously un- tamed territory.

Politics. economics. and 5. great many other things-lire of course involved, but moral disarray is back of leach and every one. The pheologlans and moralisks have 1 been saying this all along but. be- .causc no one would expect them jto say anything else, their pro- iiouncemen-ts have not. received the attention they deserved. Others have taken the name view. notably General Mo.oAi-thiir in his inaugural address as milit- ; ary commandant In Japan in 1945'. ,1 happened to be in the m-id-west United States at that time and I recall the extraordinary publicity that was given to that part of the Gcneriills speech. It was some- thing new. Military leaders had liiot. been in the habit of talking about moral problems. The sub- ject. had seemed a little outside ithe normal scope of their filter- lcsts. - I Since then, however. this moral emphasis has taken on the impor- tance of a trend and hardly la politician nowadays makes a speech without stressing their moral import. What. makes Dr. Keenleysidels use of the word so important to the fact. that the United Nations department which he has directed is concerned pri- marlly with scientific activities. Perhaps it will help to dispel the legend that scientists, in their pre- occupation with matter, have neither the lnclixiation not the ability to discuss morality in any form not There are three commonly held views with respect to the moral status of man: (1) that it is im- proving (2) that It. is deteriorating (3) that fl: has not chuiged. for better or worse, in ten thousand years or evm longer than that. Proponents of this third view or- gue that human nature does not and cannot change. Man can do nothing of himself to help himself. It. is clear that Dr. Kconleyuidc is not committed to any of these views. He cites such familiar Miings as social welfare programs, mis- sionary movements. various forms of lntcmotiorial a.ssI.sl.Ince pro- Jeolz. and. most. lmpoi-tio.nt of all. the rapid increase in public cali- trlbutlonis to all sorts of worth) charitable causes, as proofs that "humanity has made some progress in the correction of its own morlil deformities". On the other side of the picture he sees "cold, calculated, vicious cl-ueltles". These latter, it must be plain to anyone, render un- realistic Ihc secular humanism that has been preaching the in- evltxbllity of moral progress. Dr. Keenlcyoide, qiilta obviously, is in agreement with Toynbee, Dr. Nuoy. - Lewis. Heard, and ii brilliant. host of other historians and philosoph- ers, in their view that humanity in general locks the moral equip- ment to deal with the immense burdens that science he? laid upon our times.
