Hornet-tr Associate Idltor, Irnssk Walker _ i fTlre Strongest Memory is Weaker Than the Weakest lnk.", THURSDAY, JUNE l1, 1M8 CHARLOTTBTOWN. Slgnifloent Statement _ A highly significant statement was made N- cently by Hon. C. D. Howe, Minister of Trade and Commerce, in addressing a gathering at the Mas- sachusetts Institute of Technology. Presumably speaking for the Dominion Government, Mr. Howe suggested that "perhaps the time has come when serious though-t should be given to the regional merger of North Atlantic countries as a move toward ensuring world peace." Such a step, Mr. Howe said, would offer members a greater measure of political security and at the same time permit speeding the process of economic reconstruction throughout the democratic world. The some idea is now pending in tire United States Senate in the form of a resolution calling for association of this country "with such region- ul and other collective arrangements as are based on continuous and effective self-help and mutual aid." Pursuit of this ideal, Mr. Howe declared, might well result in the whole-hearted rejection elsewhere of the "police state philosophy for what it is—a soul-destroying afflication born of apathy, doubt and despair." The good neighbor policy which Canada and the United States have followed for over a cen- tury has cemented ties of enduring friendship between both countries, and the proposal of a closer merger in the interests of international peace has far reaching possibilities. Mr. How~e's words are evidence that the matter is being given serious consideration at Ottawa. The Women's Institutes The annual convention of the Women's Insti- tutes of Prince Edward Island, now in progress at the Prince of Wales College hall, is a reminder of the magnificent work performed by this org- anization since its foundation here thirty-five years ago. Institute branches now cover all parts of the Island, and are always to the fore in spon- soring all kinds of worth-while community activi- ties. ln the important fields of health and edu- cation particularly,‘ the Institutes have been of invaluable assistance. The some applies to other Provinces, wherever the movement has gained ground. I It was in Stone-y Creek, Ontario, that the first Women's Institute was established on February i9, i897. From a handful of women (and one man) the idea spread far and wide across Can- ada until now there are 8,000 Institute branches ond 70,000 members in the Dominion and the associated country women of the world have car- ‘ried its ideals to lands beyond the sea. Prominent Iigrlculturists Each year several hundred young men and "women graduate in‘ Agriculture from the uni- versities and agricultural colleges of Canada. They bring to the development of the agricul- tural industry, youth, enthusiasm and a variety of talent and abilities. As they take their places in the field of science and technology as teach- ers, administrators, research and extension work- ers, others, who have completed a lifetime of work, retire. Some change their positions. A few among them are well known either by name or in person to a large number of individuals as a result of their long service. In recent weeks, several retirements, resig- -nations and appointments have occurred among which the first to be noted is the retirement of Dr. H. Barton, deputy minister, Dominion De- partment of Agriculture, which takes place this month. Dr. Barton retires from a position which he has filled to the credit of himself and the department for many years. Ho is a graduate of the Ontario Agricultural College, Guelph, and came to the Dominion Department from Mac- donbld College, Quebec, where he was recognized as an extremely able professor of animal hus- bandry. No announcement has been made as yet as to Dr. Barton's successor as deputy minister, but it is generally believed that he will be followed by Mr. J. G. Taggart, chairman of the Agricul- tural Prices Support Board, who some months ago was appointed Chief of Services in the de- partment, and who was at one time superintend- ont of the Dominion Experimental Station, Swift Current, Saskatchewanhlater the Minister of Agriculture in that province and, until recently, chairman of the Canadian Meat Board. Another recent major appointment in the Dominion service was that of Mr. L. B. Thomson, superintendent of the Dominion Experimental Station at Swift Current, as director of P. F. R. A. This appointment follows the retirement of George Spence, who resigned late in i947 and is now rmember of the International Joint Com- mission. Mr. ‘Thomson is a native New Zea- iandet who came to Canada in i920. A gradu- ate of the Olds School of Agriculture and of the University of Alberta, he first ioined the Field Husbandry Division of the Experimental Farms jService in I925, became superintendent of the Dominion Range Experiment Station pt Many-. berries, Aberta, in i927, and was appointed sup- erintendent at Swift Current in i935 to succeed Mr. Taggart. Mr. Thomson has been very act- ’ ive in soil conservation, in the Horse Co-oper- ative Marketing Organization which he sparked and has presided over; and it.is probable that lre has cut or disregarded more red tape than any other employee of the Federal Service. "The recent retirement of Dr. L. ti. New- man It, Inlon oereoliet led to the appoint- monkey}, I C. H. Goelden to succeed him. Dr. ' {Ian overtones. euphoria-crown has recently returned from several morTt-hs in Washington where he war on loan to F.A.O. Dr. P. K. Pavlychenlro, until recently Pro- fessor of Applied Plant Ecology at the Univers- ity of Saskatchewan, and one of Canada's out- standing experts on weeds and chemical weed control, has resigned to become director of field research for the American Chemical Paint Com- pany. Born In the Ukraine, Dr. Pavlycherrko has been a naturalized Canadian since i932. He will remain in Saskatoon. l — EDITORIAL NOTES - Twelve days till the plebiscite. I I I I Auto Convention today.

Have the Western powers been wqtch- ing and guarding against every Russian move to the West only to find that her real expansion was going on to the East and South? The liyerson Press which has been annually offering a $1,000 award as an all-Canada fiction prize, has withheld the award this year as none of the entries has come up to the standard, though one or two manuscripts, submitted may be published at a later date. The Musical Association, for a young organ- ization, has made remarkable progress, and shows what women can accomplish in public work when they set their minds to it. They have made a wise choice in the selection of their officers, and with Col. Lowther as the President should march on to further success. The Market Square is finally agreed upon as the site for the bus terminal. This can be said for it, it isr both central and easy of access. lf the recommendations of the Planning Board be adopted it will mean the Market will be more popular than ever as a place of business and comfort to out-of-towners and citizens alike. John Wesley, founder and leader of Wes- leyan Methodism, born this date i703; ordain- ed in i725; was excluded from Anglican pulpits, and began to ordain clergy for the Wesleyan Methodist Church. He travelled extensively in spreading the gospel, and at the same time undertaking much literary and philanthropic work. His preaching, zeal and power of popular appeal were enormous: "Cleanliness is indeed next to godliness?’ i‘ " Evidently Premier Jones and Reconstruction Minister Howe are not omspeoking terms at Ottawa these days, not all onaccount of Maple Hills. A City Councillor wants to know why it costs double to run that area now compared with the period the City Council handled it. The Premier's suggestion that citizens should live in the country for a change, is an excellent one- provided the Government sees to it that the roads are fit for travel both summer and win- ter. In the old days a large percentage of business men lived out of town, but then they rode horses, and the roads were suitable for that. I I I I The Commons hos passed a bill increasing to $100,000 the amount to be spent annually on the old battlefields at Quebec City. The bill provides for payment of the larger sum for a 10-year period in place of the $75,000 a year which has been spent in the past i0 years. The bill also authorizes the National Battlefields Commission to purchase additional land around the Plains of Abraham. The measure, which now goes to the Senate, was passed after brief de- bate during which Opposition memberfcalled for the restoration of various historic battlefields across Canada. Mr. Clarle Gillis (CCF-Cape Breton South) said he did not like the idea of "perpetuating" and "glorifying" war, Nothing was t‘ lre-gained byholding up the old battles before Canadian school children.

It has always been my view that it is not enough to hove machinery for the prevention of war: we need to strengthen the common interests of notions 1n the positive tasks of building up the peace. But consmondnter-ests are not enough — there must. also be common conceptions and accept- ance of common Ideas.

I shou-Id like you to consider the policy of Western Union to which this country 1s now committ- ed - a policy directed against no other states but designed for ‘he well being of all its members. The peoples of Western Europe share a common heritage. They look back for the beginnings of their civilization to Greece, Home and Palestine. In the course of centuries, they have Influenced each other. Each country hue made its particular contribution. The richness of that; heritage is en- hnnced by the difference which heirs of e common tradition dis- play, just as graduates 0f a univer- sity, though recognizable as having e11 shared the some general culture, exihibit differences due to particu- lar courses of study they have followed. We have fought a great: war to preserve our western heritage. In that struggle we e11 - whether British, French. Dutch or Luxem- burgers — realized haw great were the thlngs which unite us. We are united not merely by hatred of false gods, but by belief in the true. If now we wish b0 preserve our peritage, we must not be content with e. negative attack on rival creeds. we must make our profes- sion of faith In freedom end demo, cracy. We must. be ready to incur the sacrifices necessary to defend what we hold deer. Union of the West in its essence is not. n sterile military alliance‘ Still less is if e. power bloc.

This Is the meaning and content of the Five-Power Treaty. We intend to press on with the execution of that Treaty. Much hen aireadyg been achieved in three months. but‘ much still remains. As further progress to mode. the peoples of the countries will. I em certain, receive practical evidence that. economic, financial and eocir-ri co-operation in the West. is bring- ing them substantial advantages and that (so-operation In defence assures chem of security and en- ebies them to use their com-man resources to best advantage.
