Two things were indicated xeigv rlearl) in the discussion in the Leg- islature on national health insurance. This Province cannot afford to par- l licipate in a scheme which would involve additional expenditure of over a million and a quarter dollars. And the reason why this Province p cannot participate is because of the i niggardly treatment liauded nut to T us by the Feriei-al (lovernmenl under its tax rental agreements. We shall have to shoulder our share of the tax burden involved in financing the scheme for the benefit of the more prosperous prminces. without any . consideration whatever being given in our fiscal needs and inability to .sh.ur the tiould aintiung be more unfair. or ' more out of line with the compact of ('onfedcration'.' l in sclicnie”s advantages. While discussion on this outrage- ous situation was taking place in the Legislature on Thursday. .lust- p ice Minister Carson was boasting in the llouse of Commons that the new 1 tax agreements provide 3i640,00fl.tltlti ' in pnynicnts to the Provinces -- lttwenly-five per cent greater than last year. and almost double the total proiincial expenditures in 1945." He chided Ontario. New Brunswick and Nova Scotia for complaining about their financial problems and said these problems seemed to be "the l occupational disease of Foiiservative igoveriinieiits." it is worth reminding Mr. tiarson that we have had Lib- for many years. and that we have beeu going behind to the tune of nearly two million dollars a year because of Ottawa's callous indiffer- ence to our requirements. In the present case, far from getting a '25 per cent increase under the new tax deal. we shall be. fortunate if we do not get even less than we are get- ting now. That is aboutlfive million dollars less than we need if we are io keep out of further debt and maintain a decent minimum stand- ard of public services. Finance Minister Harris seems quite as complacent as Mr. Carson about our fiscal problems. He too boasted, in his Budget speech, about and more generous ar- rangements with the Provinces for a further five year period." He. said the scale of payments for the eight provinces participating in the. deal represents an estimated forty mil- lion dollar increase over previous ll:-t)'nlflfllS. "or 20 per cent above the 1036-57 scale of payments." These statements should not go nu.-hallengcd by our Legislature. it should pass a resolution denouncing tn unqualified terms their misleading implications so far as Prince Edward Island is concerned, and appealing to Parliament against the rank in- justice that has been meted out to us. Our federal members, both In the Commons and in the Senate, should be equally outspoken. How else do we expect to gel this STl9V' ance remedied? To hear Crown min- isters prate about debt Pl'0blCm9 being "the occupational disease of Conservative governments" is the last straw. it is an insult to the in- telligence of every Liberal voter in this Province. Our Iklilllm”-' strongly Liberal as it is-would be quite in order if it reminded the st. Laurent Government of this fact. and of its implications in the corn- lng general federal election. This Changing World Mountains are higher and oceans been distributed since Wfiti 'H'ie last one was issued with the December, 1031. magazine. Backed by recent survey and scientific research, the 19.3? map shows llirnalayan Mount Everest to he 29.028 feet high -a 26-foot jump. Everest is still the world's tallest mountain in terms of skyward reach. Rut ocean-rooted Mauna Kea. I Hawaii landmark. is actually the champion in total height. It mea- sures .'i.'i.4T6 feet from base to peak, though only l.'i,796 feet rise above the sea. The new, ltl-color niap gives more details of the seas' topography and ceaselessly moving circulatory sys- tem than did any of its predecessors. The direction of warm and cold cur- rents. and prevailing winds, is indi- cated. So are some 160 underwater peaks. troughs. latcaus. ridges and basins. shown in varying shades and contours. Deepest pockmark yet found on the face of the globe is the Challenger Depth. southwest of Guam. Located in lfi.'vl, this .'i3,f's-ill- foot hole was named for its dis- coverer, the British survey ship ('hallr-nger. which in turn inherited the name from a famous 19th- century oceanographic vessel. New place names, boundaries and political alignments noted on the Geographies chart point up recent international developments. The for- mer British colony known as the Gold Coast. for instance. is called Ghana. gaining the name along with its soverelgnity in March. Morocco, Tunisia and the Sudan are other onetime African dependencies now shown as independent. Europe's post- war occupation zones have vanished. Ausii'ia is again sovereign. in divid- ed (icrniany. the ('onimuni.st-con- troled eastern portion apears as the Democratic Republic. the west as the Federal Republic. And once rnure. by plebiscite, the latter includes the Saar territory. Among the insets pl'tnlctl along the borders of the main map. one lists the members of the United Nations---now 80 instead of 60. as in 1051. It also marks the bound- aries of the Communist world. and calls the roll of nations that have joined the North Atlantic Treaty fir- ganization (NATO): the Southeast Asia Treaty Organization (SEA'll('li; the Arab League; and the Baghdad l Part. Three other insets record the i world's population density. its time zones. and land classifications by forest. tundra. farmland and desert. Perhaps the most striking of all changes reflected on the map are , the new names and features that dot once-blank spaces of the Far North and Far South. Even as the 1957 World Map rolled off the presses, additional details for the next were coming from Arctia and Antarctia regions where research scientists and explorers are working on information- gathering programs I of the International Year.

IAWRENCE smwar AND Sir. - In reply to a recent letter appearing in your paper. in which the. writer stated as follows: "When you consider the hundreds of millions of dollars spent on the St. Lawrence waterways and can- all. and now on the proposed gas pipe. lines from Western Canada to which the citizens of the Maritimes contribute without benefit in them." Some of these. things were also said by I Conservative mem- ber during the. course of the de- hate on the draft. address in the Provincial Legislature. I clnnot conceive that thc almvs ' tements were made. with mal- icious intent. nevertheless. such statements were not calculated to promote a feeling of equality In our province with respect In our sister provinces. The facts are that the St. Lawrence Seaway and Trans Canada Gas Pipe Line. from Alberta to Montreal Will not cost the Maritime taxpayer one red penny. The estimated cost of the sea- way and power project. is 3900.- ulrowtio be divided as follows: To the Hydro Electric Power Com- mission of Ontario &'t00.tim.00tl. and to the Power Authority of the State of New York S300.000.000; lnlklng a total of For he development of power in the International section: To ilie navi- gation and entities. that is the st.

Arranizenients are now” going forward for the completion by the Government of the other portion of its proposal which is the con- l slruction of the Northern Ontario l . section. This is bcini: done by it l crown company set up for the purpose. The estimated cost. of this , section of the line is S130.000.000. l The Government of Ontario has undertaken to contribute 535.000.- 000. to the capital of the corpor- ation. leaving 595000.000 as the responsibility of thc Federal Gn- l vernment. The line. when com- pleted. is In be leased for opera- tion to Trans-Canada Pipe Lines Limited under arrangements which will pay all the operating costs of the line and the provisions of the lease are designed to make it advantagcoiis to Trans-Canada Pipe. Lines Limited to purchase the whole of the Northern Ontario sec- tion of the line from the Crown at the earliest Dossiblc moment. The purchase arrangements are such that the Government will recover the entire cost of con- struction of the line. together with interest on the Government's in- vested capital at a minimum of W: per cent per year. Accordingly. the arrangement is designed to provide temporary as- sistance without residual cost to the taxpayers generally. It. is im- possible to forecast with certainty how long it may be before the private company is in a position to purchase the Northern Ontario section from the Crown. However. , no matter 1 may be and no matter how long i It may take to have this line de- T veloped into a profitable under- taking, the Federal Government will at some stage recover all its costs together with interest at av. per cent per year- The. proposals of the Federal Government in this connection have all been designed to provide temporary solutions to p r o- blems of the necessary trans- mission of energy within Canada. This is the same principle which is being applied to the Msrltlmes area in the proposal contained in Mr. Harrls' recent budget speech that the Federal Government is prepared to provide within the Marltimss certain power transmis- sion facilities which will serve to improve the availability of elec- ' trlc. energy and reduce its cost "5 Industrial and domestic consum- era alike.

PROPER PRECAUTIONS Just the same. you'll want to take proper precautions to pre- vent any eye trouble when your youngster. or some other mem- ber of the family. is stricken with measles. Frequently. the eyes will be sen- sitive to light. Keeping the room dark by lowering the shade: or blinds might interfere with proper ventilation. This in turn could low- er the patlent's general resistance and make recovery more difficult. Dark glasses for the patient pm- 5355 hably is a better idea.

WARM COMPRESSES As a rule. your doctor will tell you that compresses of plain warm water will be within: and help- ful in most cases. The use of antibiotic ointment: or drops is often recommended, but don't. use them without your doctor's approval. Finally the patient should get plenty of rest.
