JULY 16. 1951 The Late Mr. MacPhee The late Mr. H. Frank MacPltee, Q.C.. was widely known aitd esteem- ed throughout the Ptovincc. He was an outstanding member of the legal profession and in late years his activities were largely confiticd to his law practice. He had. howl-tcr, served with equal distinction as a member of the Legislature. as Klin- ister of Public Works and as Al- toritey General in the Stewart (lov- ernmeitt. As a deliatcr ltc hail fcw equals in the Mari ime Pi-oviitct-s, and he was invariatly fair and courteous to his opponents. (tour- tesy, indeed. was one of MI. Mac- Phee's marked characteristics at all tintes. A man of wide reading attd culture, of broad human sympathies and genial nature. he would have adorned any position to which he was called. it is no secret that with the change of' government at Ot- tawa he would quite likely have been appointed to the vacant Sena- torship in this Province had ltis health permitted him to accept. Hope for this improvement was entertained up to a few weeks ago. Mr. lllacPhee's passittg will be learned with deep regret by all who were associated with him in any capacity, and who will treasure the memory of his sterling qualities of mind and heart. To his widow and daughters The Guardian joins in tendering sincere sympathy. , it "Hebridean Pioneers What Prince Edward Islander, at home or abroad. is not familiar with the story of the Skye Pioneers? Those sturdy Highland settlers ar- rived here with Lord Selkirk in the year 1803. and settled in what is now the Belfast district. The three ships in which they came - the Polly, the Dykes and the Oughton -are still familiar names and the record of their early hardships and subsequent achievements forms an inspiring chapter in our Island his- tory.

Macqueen visited here in 1.0.'t.'l. and contributed an address which was read at the services marking the l.'t0th annit'ct2-yry of the Belfast settlcmcnt. lie inti- mated at that time that he was at work on it new volume, bringing all his rcsearcltes tip to date and iitcot-pointing new material which he had come across from time to time. This revision has been a laltor of love whtclt he ltas notv lvrnugltt to a siicces.--ful conclusion. His new book. ”llehriclcan Pinn- enrs”. ttas just been published by Henrlctzson Directories Limited. Win- nipeg. and is a scltolarly achieve- ment of the higltr-st orrier. No one can fail to be impressed by the painstaking research which ltas gone into every page of this inspiring narrative. The genealogical refer- ences have been considerably ex- panded, and the historical back- ground is much more complete than in the earlier volume. As the author notes in an intro- ductory chapter, the departure of the Selkirk settlers from the Heb- rides corutltuted one of the largest Igstemstlc mlrgraiions sponsored by In indtvtdusl of which up to that time then is.Iny tecord.

Bulganiu. He appears to be the only much- mentioned Soviet politician who has had any appreciable amount of schooling in the diplomatic graces; and then: have been indications from time to time that, if he had the slightest thing to do with for- mulating policy, he would at least treat his foreign counterparts with reasonable courtesy. He might even do something towards easing inter- national tensions. But under the system that ob- tains iii the Soviet Union. "Marshal" Bulganin (even that title is ficti- tious) is no more than a toy pre- niicr. a puppet who must react to the strings pulled by his boorish lltiSS, Nikita lihrtishchev. The let- ters ltc writes to foreign govern- ntcttts are dictated by Khrusltcltev. The speeches he delivers are written by the same cunning hand. For a ycar or two after his appointnteitt to his nominal post, the pretence that he was Premier iit fact as well as iit name was more or less sus- tained. Lately. even that superficial comfort has been denied him. On Bitlg:initt's and lx'ltru.sitrltcv's rcccnt trip to Czechoslovakia. the Premier was alw'ays at least one step behind the Party Secretary. That this was a calculated means of iitflictiitg indignity. aitd tto ac- cident. was shown in an incident on their arrival at the airport itt Pra- gue, where hhrushchev seated ltim- self in the first official car, leaving his companion to find his own trans- portation as best he could. Mr. Bul- gattin made only one speech on the tour; and that one. obviously. hail been put into his hands. It extolled l(ltrttshchev as the "saviour" of Communism. The farce which Marshal Bul- ganin must help to sustain will in all probability come to an end one of these days with the assumption of the appearance as well as the practicalities of the Premier's office by him who already is the architect as well as the administrator of policv. Doubtless, Mr. Bulganin un- derstands this well enough. liis ser- vile attitude lies in the hope that when that day 90'"95 he will be allowed to retire to c0mlt3Y8llV9 peace and not forced into if1fl0ml'l' ious exnep as would be the case if he were bold enough to stand up for his rights. EDITORIAL NOTES A spokesman for Outer lllongolia says he expects his country to be admitted to the United Nations this fall. That ought to step things up a bill O This year's crop production in the United States is expected to be the smallest since iflfti. One reason for this is the bad weather which seems to have been almost universal this year. in the American farm belts conditions have been par- ticularly bad--heavy floods in sortie areas and heavy d r 0 u g it t s in others. 0 O C Experts at the International l'oliomyelitis ('onfercnce in Geneva were told that the chief concern of medical science in the future- must be in the field of rehabilitation. "I hope," said Dr. James L. Wilson of the linivcrsity of Michigan. "that we can emphasize not only the tech- niques of life saving but those of making the life that is saved worth- while and useful." 0 C Anglican Bishops in South Africa have advised their people of both races to ignore the Government's regulation forbidding Negroes to at- tend church services in white an-as. The obsetvance of civil law is n Christian precept. But them we times-and evidently church leaders in South Africa believe that this is one of them-when it must be dis- pensed with in favour of Christian justice.
