Prime Minister Pear- son took the ..ttitude that the share of revenue to be made available to the provinces this year was settled and no further changes would be made in this regard. Much has tak- en place in the way of behind-the- sccnes negotiations since then. how- ever. Pr 9 in i e r Lesagc de- laying the introduction of his bud- get in the Quebec legislature until a round of discussions with federal authorities had been completed. leav- ing open thD possibility that Ottawa might yet come across with a suf- ficient increase in revenue to meet. his demands. - Are the proposed changes in the Canada Pension Plan linked up with this issue. and to what extent? All that we kno.v at present is that the current attempt to work out a com- promise with Quebec on pensions that would make possible the estab- lishment of a common system across Canada is only part of what one federal sourcr has described as "a package deal" in the process of negotiation with Mr. Lesage. The Prime Minister has promis- ed to make a statement. in the Com- mons on Monday on the latest. pen» sion developments. and perhaps we shall get the full story then. In the meantime. it is reassur- ing to note. that the Government has no intention of calling a snap tleCflOll on this matter. for which there would be no justification whatever. The Financial Post was not far wrong in declaring that "yet another angry alection campaign coming at this time would have horrible and long lasting effects on Confederation." Besides. as the Winnipeg Free Press points out. the Goyrernment already has a full man- date to construct a pension scheme and no party opposes, it in principle. The current difficulties are not the result of last year's inconclusive election: they were the result of the Government’s own haste and miscalculation. Everyone. knows that, the 0b- ,icctions of Quebec and Ontario to the present. pension plan have created an entirely new situation. What the public cannot understand. however. is why this difficulty was not anticipated by Liberal policy makers from the. start. Redistribution Hon. .i. Angus MacLean recalled an interesting bit. of political his- tory in the Commons the other day, when he said that in Prince Ed- ward Island there were. three dual tidings at one time but after the ICITSIIS of 1219] they were eliminat- cd and fiVP single rulings created. Then. at a later redistribution. dual tidings were again created—which indicated that there was good rea- son. His point was that the redis- tribution commission should be giv- en a free hand in recommending the retention of dual ridings if it wish- ed to do so. Mr. MacLoan. himself a member for the dual constituency of Queens. made it clear that he was not "wedded to any particular view" of the matter. but he maintained the commission should be given the option of studying the question. rather than have Parliament. “in a rather arbitrary way," say that dual ridings should no longer exist. His pOint was well taken. In any case. we are safeguard- ed against any reduction in our present number of 4 House of Com- is U K. 520 00 per . mons representatives. since the British North America Act. provides that no province's representation in that chamber shall fall below ita statutory number of Senators. Un- changed. too. will be Newfound- land's representation of 7. New Brunswick's of 10. and the Yukon and the 'l'crrilories with one mem- ber cach. l’nrlor the present rules, Nova Scotia would drop one from 12 to ll. Quebec one from 75 to 74, Man- itoba one from 14 to 13. Saskatch- ewan four front 17 to 13. Ontario would pick up three from 85 to 88, Alberta two from 17 to 19. British Columbia one from 22 to 23. The Redistribution Bill provides for a new House of 264 members. down one from the present 265. But there is no doubt, that the seat losses for the four provinces—- especially sensitive Quebec—will be fought : so that the alternative may be an expansion to 283 or even 288 of the membership of the House. The bill makes provision for a four-member redistribution com- mission for each province. To these commissions. Prime Minister Pear- son and Opoosition Leader Diefen- baker will each name a member. the provincial Chief Justice will name. the chairman. and the fourth man on all Ill will be newly-appoint- ed Representation Commissioner Nelson Castonguay. The commissioners will have a year to draw up their maps within the limits of the prescribed pop- ulation formula. Then Mr. Caston- guay will l)l‘f‘:‘(’l1l the ten provincial maps to Parliament which will have 30 days to argue about them; with one-third of the MPs of any prov- ince having the power to send their provincial map hack to the (iom~ mission for a second look and lb 9. hearing of protests and suggestions. Aftcr that. the job will be consider- ed as being done, and Parliament must accept it. Obleclton, Please On his visit to Toronto this week. LIS. Attorney-General Robert F. Kennedy was quoted as indicat- ing his. disapproval of continuing Canadian trade with Cuba. He stressed what. he termed the threat posed by Cuba to the rest of the Western hemisphere in one of his replies at a press conference follow- ing his arrival. it appears to have been a loaded question. and not one that Mr. Ken- nedy went out of his way to raise as a guest on Canadian soil. In any case. his answer told us nothing new about the official attitude at \V’ashington. especially when there is an election campaign in the off- ing. Canada's trade with Cuba is in non-strategic goods. and we see no threat to international peace by continuing it. Rather. we think it makes for better relations. Britain follows the same policy. and for the same good reason. as. Prime Min- ister Douglas-Home made clear in his recent visit to this continent. But. the best comment we‘ve seen on the subject was from us. Senator William Fullbright. who thus castigated his Colleagues for their obsession with fellows of the Castro breed: "We have flattered a noisy but minor demagogue by treating him as if he were a Napole- onic. menace." Mr. Kennedy would do well to study the implications of this state- ment. EDITORIAL NOTES One beneficial result of the re- cent earthquakes in Alaska is the decision of the US.

Headaches For Fox Hunters Milwaukee Journal in Great Britain recently a group riding to hounds discover- ed that their normally enthusias- tic dogs had no interest in chas- ing a fox. Near the start of in course. animal lovers were toss- ing chunks of fresh meat to any hound which came. running across the. fields. The hunt end- ed in confusion. A court later lined the meat dispensers. It held that they were disorderly in wrecking a long respected sporting activity But the reputation of many a hound was destroyed— for was the pride of their masters that nothing could divert them i once a fox was scented and a ‘ chase under way. America seems in for a lost of whether hounds can lose interest in a fox. In Virginia the red fox, the quarry of those who ride to hounds. is widely infected with rabies. The danger to livestock and humans is great. so health authorities are considering a trapping program to rid the countryside of foxes. This is bad news to such or- ganizations as the Warrenton Hunt. Without foxes the. masters of the hunt might as well turn in l their horns and net] their .— hounds They are grasping at ways to save the day and have i come up with this plan: l At whelping time the h u at t could pay a bounty for all live . r red foxes brought in.

South African Blockade? y ug Marshall ‘anadian Press Staff Writer The pressure will soon be on Western governments to put more bite and less bark intov their opposition to South Af- rica‘s racial policies. A private conference organ- izcd by Afro-Asian countries in London this week is giving se- rious study to the feasibility and consequences of applying a full. , scale naval blockade on the republic. Not all the delegates are sure i that such 3 blockade could be. mountcd. that it would be ef- fective if it were and whether such effects are even desirable. Imposing the blockade would . mcan larce economic and stra- tegic sacrifices. especially forf Britain and the United States. Western governments would‘ hood to be assured that apart- ltcid — separate racial develop- ment ~ could be replaced by a VULNERABLE IN 01L Proponents of a blockade have marslialled powerful argu- i ments to counter the protests, that cxtcrnal interference will load to the violence they are tryin: to avoid. South Africa's economy is se- vulncrablcl ' and rubbcr. Some experts say the rcpublic could be brought to its knees in six months if those commodities were excluded. 1 Those argumg for 8 blockade also say estcrn economies could easily shrug off the loss of income from South Africa and the loss of gold from the South African mines. They see the first chance for the United Nations to apply the blockade is likely to come when the International Court in the Hague rules ncxt year on South- Wcst Africa. The judges are ex- pected to decide apartheid can- not be imposed on the man- dated territory and the UN will need to enforce the ruling. POWERFUL REMINDER One way of enforcing it would be by blockade. lifted only after South Africa surrendered con- ‘ trol of the territory. From then on the presence of the UN in south-west Africa ‘ould be a powerful reminder to the South African government. that the outside world no lonv . ger considers apartheid to be a purely domestic issue. The decision to interfere will be hardest for Britain to make. Site is the closest involved with the former Commonwealth country—to the tune of about £210.000.000 a year —— and the US. still looks to Britain for advice and initiative in dealing with South Africa. Othcrs'say it would take as ion: as two years. Such 8 blockade would be ‘ difficult to maintain even with liberal use of Anglo-American aircraft carriers and subma- riucs. But the recent. US block- ade of Cuba is cited as a prac- l tical precedent. ' AIR CONDITIONING Sales and Service Domestic and Commercial Storey Electric Ltd.
