W ' Comprehensive Brlei In its brief before the Royal (‘om- mission on Banking and Finance yes- . badly. the Provincial Government presented a particularly interesting suggestion for achieving co-opera- lion between the four Atlantic Prov. blues in their bond borrowings. The proposal is that these provinces com- bine in their public offerings to ob- gin thg_bg_s_t_possible rate. and thus pliminate any element of competition between them in thefinancial mar- bets. It was suggested. also. that dmllar Cooperation Could be obtain- d between the federal and all pro- vincial governments, counteracting ale disparity in borrowing rates. not only among the provinces themsel- ves but between the provinces and the federal government. This plan envis- ages a central borrowing agency un— der the direction of the provincial and federal authorities. which could borrow funds at regular intervals for loan to the co-operating govern- ments at a rate calculated to recov- er the borrowing cost. plus the ex- penses of issue and administration. This method of oo-ordinated bor- rowing would not be a compulsory af- fair—no province would be forced to borrow through the central agency; but it was argued that the interest rates to all the individual provinces would decrease as a result of the larger amounts offered and the con- eiderably greater security base of the combined issue. “j Reference was made in the brief h the difficulties ~which this prov- ince found in its search for money in 1959. and to other problems 're- hting to banking and finance. Some 15 recommendations were outlined for the Commission’s consideration, pnd would appear to be the result of much careful preparation on the part of the Provincial Treasurer. Mr. Mc- Quaid. whom we congratulate on his presentation. Ali Very Coniusin Liberal spokesmen are ma ing a big team about the devaluation of the Canadian dollar, and we have been trying painstakingly to follow their reasoning. but without much puccesa. Why all the furor now. when the same people were clamoring for devaluhtion only a few months ago? At their convention in January, 1961, didn't they go on record for “new monetary policies that would stimu- late exports and improve Canada’s position by lowering the value of the Canadian dollar"? Well. there is no question that since the devaluation of the Cana- dian dollar Canadian foreign trade he's been expanding. As a result. it slow seems possible that for the first time in eight years Canada will have In overall surplus in the, current fis- cal year. That. of Course. is a matter for argument; but there is no doubt that the growing export trade is M for our farmers especially. The Western wheat. growers are. happy drout it. and our potato exporters hers should feel the benefit very materially. One shipper estimates flat the gain will meet one-half our Main farnlers' fertilizer bills.

' The (‘anadian dollar was pegged at it.- present rate with the approval of the international Monetary Fund, world experts who thought it a real- istic rate. And. as The Journal mints out again in this context. the Liberals who are raging against it now are. the same [Liberals who in 1949 pegged the Canadian dollar at 90 cents. Was that ruinous to our econ- omy at that time. or was it sound fin- ancing? Mr. Pearson hasn’t told us. but he should, since he has raised the issue. He really should, if be ex- » peels us to take him seriously! Thirteen Too Many Last year there were 13 deaths in this Province from “drownings"- the same number as for highway fatalities. This was a shocking toil, and points up the need for the na- tional safety water campaign which the Canadian Red Cross has inaugu- rated and which is now in progress. The. Red Cross reports that out of the millions of Canadians who will be enjoying water recreation this season, it is probable that near- ly a thousand will not enjoy them for very long. They are the ones who are destined to be victims in more drowning tragedies. It is human nature to assume that this could never happen to one’s self. That, indeed. is what accounts for the carelessness which too often leads to tragedies of this kind. The Red Cross does its best to inform Canadians of the hazards involved; but water safety is, after all, a very personal affair. It is only through the individuai's response to water safety knowledge that the drowning statistics can be cut down. . Over-confidence in water. and fear of the water are the two extremes of approach. Somewhere in between is the correct one. Knowing and rec- ognizing the hazards is what counts. In this sea-girt province there is no excuse for anyone not being water- wise. This summer, let's prove it by the precautions we take at all times.
