"The strongest memory is wallet "ill the weakest ink." TRUREDAY. MAY 20. 1056 Jusliiiabie Grievance ,Aided by one "closure" after an- other, the controversial gas-pipe line bill is taking its turbulent and pre- destined course to parliamentary approval. Government ministers ap- pear to be taking the view that the country would virtually fall apart economically if the June 7th dead- line, agreed upon by the government and the company which is to get the F580 million, were not met. But, thus far, the most interesting official ob- scrvation, from a Maritime point of view. to be reported from the Com- mons, was that made by Finance Minister Harris who, in the debate on the second reading, declared that any further delay in the passage of 4 the bill would be "almost fatal to the progress of industrial Ontario". when Mr. A. J. Brooks, a New Brunswick Conservative, suggested that the Maritimes would get no benefit from the pipe line, Mr. Har- ris observed that that was tanta- mount to saying "a project which would be to the credit of all Cana- dians should be held up because it was not possible for the G0Vemment to do something else in another part of the country." That, of course, was no answer at all to Mr. Brooks' comment. But, perhaps unwittingly, the Finance Minister put his finger on a real Maritime grievance and one that is fully justified. The 580 million loan that is to go to Trans-Canada Pipe Lines Ltd. is an expense to all Cana- dians, and not only to those in any particular section. So are the hun- dreds of millions for the building of the St. Lawrence Seaway project, which also is of doubtful value to the Atlantic region. If unlimited amounts of money can be provided by the public treasury for almost any proposition intended to benefit upper Canada, surely Marltimers have a right, and indeed a. duty, to complain about the niggardly atti- tude hitherto adopted by the Fed- eral Government with respect to in- dustrial and transportation needs in this part of the country. When all is said and done, it may fairly be asked whether the Govern- ment's action in this instance is, in fact. and primarily, for the benefit of Ontario's industrial requirements or simply for the financial gain of a firm which, according to all ac- counts, is controlled by American interests. The fact that there is much criticism of the bill in On- tario, ns elsewhere, would seem to suggest that the company itself is the chief object of the Government's patronage. Maritime Trends Noleci Note is taken by the Financial Post of the fact that trends under way in the Maritime Provinces to- day will soon be felt by the nation's food processing and farming indus- tries. It calls attention to the pros- pect of a number of new quick- freeze food firms being established in these Provinces, following which may be expected expansion of cold storage and the appearance of can- ning companies on a large scale. There will be less emphasis on apples and potatoes - for which markets have been disappointingly erratic--and much more emphasis on product diversification to serve the needs of the new industries. "These things," says the Post writer, "mean that food processors and producers in the rest of Canada are going to have to fight hard to hold markets in the Maritlmes. And they also mean that Maritlmes' food products are going to be more com- petltlvo in export and other Cana- dian markets." There is, it adds, reason for this upsurge. ' -.,""I'hough Maritimers spend 30 per cent of their income on food, much ofth'lsm0!I0yl0cselsewhere.Somc ,-mm ocntofnll processed food Lenten in theflsrltlmes comes from too pi-ovlnoII.AvIry lame. unnstlmsud. quantity of fun! pcoductsgocnciw in possibly 1,300 miles. That this costs money is apparent on food-stun tags. Lack of up-to-date facilities plus high transportation cost means the cost of refrigerated foods in Saint John is 10 per cent higher than in other major Canadian cities; in Halifax as much as 20 per cent higher. Maritime agencies-among them the Maritime Provinces Board of Trade, the Atlantic Provinces Economic Council, all governments and farm groups--are working hard to remedy this situation." - It is noted that once adequate meat processing facilities are pro- vidcd, there seems no reason why Maritime growers cannot supply I far greater proportion of meat needs. "Current low prices for hogs and cattle, however, discourage the set- ting up of new livestock operations. But Prince Edward Island hog pro- duccrs-who turn out the best quai- lty hogs in Canada-have proven that Maritime stock raisers have the abilities and the land resources to produce top-grade animals. That could even mean that the Maritlmes will be an important meat-exporting region before too long." These slatements from a Toron- to financial paper show that Mari- time trcnds are being watched close- ly. and that our efforts at economic self-improvement are being taken seriously. Let us hope that -there will be no letup in this forward movement. Farmers and consumers will both benefit, and the Maritlmes generally will have greatly improv- ed their competitive position so far as food is concerned. Man Of Distinction Most Communist Party heads outside Soviet confines are mere robots manipulated by the master minds in the Kremlin. They say words which have been put in their mouths; they praise, blame, love, and hate according to the instruc- tions they receive. Evidence of this is the readiness with which party bosses in many lands have echoed Mr. Khrushchcv's denunciation of the once glorified Stalin. There is one man, however, who resigned his post rather than follow the new line. He is Harry Pollit, who headed Britain's small Communist colony so long that he was sometimes re- fered to as "Mr. Marx". When the word came from Moscow to slander the memory of the dead chieftain, Mr. Pollit hesitated, hemmed and hawed and finally joined the chorus of hate. But his heart was not in it, and after a few days of confusion and backtracking, he decided that the slate of his health would not permit him to carry on. He then re- signed. Now, he is being slandered by the rank and file for "failing to report Stalin's errors". Judging by reports, Mr. Pollit thus becomes the first Communist leader anywhere in the world to show independence of mind. He is, therefore, a man of distinction. Per- haps when the inevitable happens, and the pendulum swings back, he (if he is still alive and a Commun- ist) will be acclaimed as a hero. Meanwhile, wherever the spirit of Stalin happens to be, he (or it) can find some little consolation in the knowledge that. one friend-only one, and that one an Englishman- has remained constant d e s pit e frowns from on high.

May 25. at 8:00 p.m. n is my desire, as President of the Hospital, and the desire of the various members of the Board of Trustees. that the citizens of the Town of Summerslde and those of the various other communities of Prince County be well repre- sented at the meeting. It is our desire that the representatives be not only persons directly con- nected with the institution through employment or through some official capacity, but also by per- sons who may have only an in- direct interest such as the desire to see that the sick are taken care of in an efficient manner consis- tent with economy. Higher wages to employees and higher costs other hospital essentials together with losses re- sulting from patients who either do not or cannot pay have re sulted in the operating costs of the Hospital being greater than llle income with which to pay them. It being essential that the Hospital c o n t l n u e to function efficiently. some medium must be found whereby enough income is obtained to pay these costs as well as to pay the sinking fund on the bond issues of the institution. We. as citizens. though not re- quirlng hospital care today. may require it badly tomorrow. Be- cause of this, if for no other reason it is important that each of us do our part to see that the Hospital can care for us as wcll as for others if and when that tomorrow comes. Each of us can assist to some degree by attending the an- nual meeting. taking part in the discussions and offering sugges- tions and constructive criticisms when necessary. On the behalf of the Board of Trustees, I thank you, Mr. Editor. for space through which this im- portnnt matter can be brought to the attention of your readers. I am. Sir. etc.. AUSTIN A.

THE Eio By Harold Garnet Black I Emerson Siill Speaks Through the mail a few days ago came a 32-page pamphlet con- l taining selcctit - from Ralph Wal- do Emerson's writings. which a friend of mine thought I might enjoy reading. My first impulse was to consign it to the waste basket. but on second thought I decided to glance through it. The result was I began with the first page of a brief biographical sketch and did not lay the pam- phlef down till I had read every last word of it! why? I had once studied Emerson and had later attempted to teach some of his more notable essays. Furthermore, my personal inter- est in him had been heightened by the fact that many years ago Bliss Perry, the scholarly editor of Em- erson's works had taken a num- ber of us Harvard students from Cambridge to visit Emerson's home in nearby Concord, not far from that rude bridge where "once the embattled farmers stood, and fired the shot heard round the world." RARE PRIVILEGE There we had the rare privilege of meeting his only living son, Dr. Edward W. Emerson. who grac- iously showed us through the house made famous by his disting- uished father. It lakes many kinds to make up the Arab world. Many people think most Arabs are nomads for desert dwellers. Actually, the camel-riding wanderer of the desert represents a tiny fraction of the world's total Arab popula- tion. what is an Arab? Take a few examples: A fair-haired, blue-eyed you man in Beirut operates a smal shop selling electric shavers, rad- ios and refrigerators. He speaks English as well as Arabic. He reads American novels and mag- azines. plays a good game of ten- nis. Both he and his wife wear Western clothes. Their religion-Presbyterian. A man in the Nile delln of Egypt wanders through his cotton field carrying on his shoulder a primi- tive hoe. He fills the same soil his ancestors tilled 5.000 years ago. He looks like the pictures carved on the walls of ancient Egyptian tombs. BAREFOOT CHRISTIAN This man lives in a mud hut. sharing it with his wife, children and animals. He wears a skull cap. a cotton robe and generally goes barefoot. His religion is Cop- ic. an ancient Christian faith sup- poscdly brought to Egypt by St. Mark. A thousand miles up the Nile A black man does a frenzied rltull dance to the beat of tom-toms un- der is full moon. He bears the scars of tribal marks hacked on his cheeks when he was an infant. This man wears a white cloak and turban and lives in a conical hut. His religion is Islam. of an Africa type emphasizing wild der- vish dances. Thousands of Arabs spend as much time on the sea as on land. Since the days of Slnbad the sailor, Arabs have sailed their "dhows" from Aden, Ifndhrnmhut and Mul- cnt to ports as distant as Bombay and Zanzibar. Sailing is still a R;-Ila, ud profession among the a s.

There we saw the elder Emer- son's library. the desk at which he sat and wrote, the pictures on the walls. and many other things of curious interest.” I have never ceased to be thank- ful for that personally conducted tour through the home of the Sage of Concord by his son. then in his late sixties. Emerson has long been noted for Pulling into brief aphoristic form great truths and bits of good advice. Here are some examples. "Hitch your wagon to n star"- "Never strike sail to a fear''--- "Be, and not seem"-"Trust thy- self: every heart vibrates to that iron string." Here are some other truths worth pondering over. "He who would be a great soul in future, must be a great soul now." "There is no beautlfier of complexion or form of behavior, like the wish to scatter joy and not pain around us." "Justice always wants cham- pious." THE ONLY AIIMOII And again. "Truth is our only armor in all passages of life and death." "He who does a good deed is instantly ennobled." "Nothing can do me mischief by myself." "What you are stands over you the while, and thunders so that I cannot hear what you say to the contrary.” on. And this would expand the term to include countries like Pak- istan and Indonesia. The best way to define Arab. as the word is used today. is "n citizen of 1 country whose first language in Arabic." On this basis the Arab League was formed. and Arab national- ism has reached its limits on the basis of the extent of the use of Arabic to qualify for member- ship in the Arab League. A country must be Arabic-speaking and in- dependeni. This restriction ax- cludes Moslem Turkey and Inn, while including Lebanon. It lump: the predominantly black Sudnneso population with light-skinned Syr- ians from the lawite mountains. The Arab League's next expansion may be westward, to include Tunis and Morocco. Both these are Arabic speaking countries and probably will join the league as soon as their independence from France is complete.

ADDITIONAL SUPPLY WI Problbly I good idea to take along an additional supply of coy. ion. an extra eight-ounce bottle of alcohol and a reserve syringe and needles to guard against breakage. An additional supply of insulin might come in handy. also. While you can carry than 1-9- serve supplies in your luggage, youd better keep your regular equipment on your person, You can never tell when you and your suitcases might be separated.

OVERNIGHT STOPS When the weather is really hot, you can refrigerate the insulin during your overnight stops. Y9” Ve got to expect delayed meals on occasions. Perhaps the railroad dining on will be crowd- ed or maybe you'll have to drive another 50 miles to find I restau- tnnt you like. Now don't get caught in such I predicament after you've already taken your insulin in anticipation of eating. This could lead to an insulin reaction. GENERAL RULE As a general rule. you should not take insulin until the next meal definitely is in night. How- eVer. if you are sure breakfast will be delayed several hours. and you are a severe diabetic, it might be best for you to take n portion of your usual dose. Omission of insulin for too long a time might lead to loss of con- trol and development of acidosis. So before starting on your vs- catlon. ask your physician what you should do in the event your meals may sometimes be delayed. QUESTION AND ANSWER R.C.: I have been working in u uranium mine. I wonder if there is any danger from the radioactive substance? Answer: The amount of radio- activity in the ore being mined is very low. Therefore. the chances of injury to you would be slight. One of Emerson's crowning statements is particularly nppllc- nble to our day, when two great ideologies are in violent conflict across the world. It is found in a passage In which he speaks of "love". by which he means what Harry Emerson Fos- dick would call '" Jingulshable goodwill.” "Love." says Emerson. "would put a new face on this weary old world, in which we dwell as pug"- hns and enemies too long; and it would warm the heart to see how fast the vain di,'omacy of atgtgg. men. the importance of Lnnles and nnvles and lines of defenu. would be superseded by this un. armed child."
