" I ua uni .. .....- WEDNESDAY. ocr. II.-1;) Hopeful indications Evidence of the desire of the Uieicnbaker Government to imple- ment its pi-e-election pledges was given in the Speech from the Throne with which Her Majesty opened Par- Iiament on Monday. As not;-(1 in .HtSlcrda)'s issiic, improved social seciirity llltiilr-tUl"0S and the pi'oliabil- l lty of tax cuts were indicated. One measure of great interest is the federal assistance which is forecast for tlw dcvclopinenl of thermal and hydro power in the Atlantic Prov- inces. This will include aid to New Brunswick in its Reecbwmiri hydro ui'iilW'l on the Saint John Riier. 'l'li1s assurance has been hailed vi ith satisfaction by Hon. Plrlgar Fr-iirnier. chairman of the New Rriinsiiick Fiicctric Power ('ommis- sion. who states that the first 1R,ooo. liorscpow er unit at Beccliwood is to begin operation shortly, with the second to follow by two or three 1 months. It is understood that the Federal Government has been study- ing possible use of the river's full power potential and this broader outlook might be included in the assistance planned by federal author- ities. We in this Province are keenly interested in any such development, i which brings nearer the day when cheaper electrical power will be ob- tainable for the Wlttiic Maritiiiie area. Another matter of special inter- est in the Throne Speech was the reference to the meeting next month of federal and provincial leaders to " discuss fiscal relations and to seek better understanding and arrange- ment nf many aspects of our public finances. We are hopeful that the sliaiiby deal meted out to Prince Edward Island under the existing tax rental agreements will be re- placed by some arrangement more . In line with our urgent fiscal needs and taxpaying ability. We shall not cease protesting about the treatment .we received under the present ar- ravigcnienls--as we did during the election campaign--iintil there is it change for the better. This was one of the strongest reasons for the defeat of our four Liberal candidates last June. Since that time Canada has had a free- trade offer from the United Kins- dom, which is unlikely to be accept- ed owing to pressure from the bill Iiirtir-'ti'i:il centres but which would i-ei-tainly he of great value to the farmers and fishermen of this Prov- Irioe. Must we pay the shot. both ii-2;-P up are doiihly entitled to fi-nil rniisiderntioii in view of the protection the wealthy Provinces en- joy at our expense. ' so it is not at all a question of our representatives going hciztziniz Y0 ttttawa for special favors. The men we elected were insistent on this point during the election campaign. pnri so too was Mr. Diefenbaker him- sell. We have every hope. ihf'Pf'i0PP. that ii brighter financial era for this Province in in sight. First of all. hows-ver. it is necessary that the 3. I-criri-al Government and all our sister Provinces he made full,V' "Wt iilzant of the grounds on which we base our claims, as well as the urg- ency of our requirements it We In to function as a continuing partner In Confederation. Politics & Science President Etscnhower and point of his colleagues are obviously try- ing to Irish IBM of. Russia's leading position in thedevelomient of up-cc nudist This, of can-n, Is under- nandablc. For one thin. a Conn!!- doniil election h only a few months away; and the Soviet achlevmient Ia ready-mode poiitiai we-im for &ueraIie plttelans who an bound the misfortune. The scientists. however. are not as complacent or as cheerful as the politicans are making themselves out to be. For example, Dr. John R. Dunning, dean of the Columbia L'ni- versity School of Engineering and one of the nation's top physicists, frankly told a group of university presidents and deans the other day that "the Soviet Union undoubtedly has surpassed the United States in the struggle for' technological de- velopment." He added that "the world has entered the age of techno- logical imperialism and, while the Soviets have already begun their exploitation of it, we have not, be- cause our people, our Government and our schools have not yet grasped its full significance." Dr. Dunning called for ”drasti- cally new outlook to answer the challenge" and suggested that per- haps the free world would have to accept ”a lower standard of living to combat Soviet progress." This is not a pleasant thought, but it prob- ably contains wisdom. In Soviet Rus- sia scientific development is given top priority. In the West the em- phasis is on a high standard of liv- ing. Whetlier this can he sustained without putting the free world at a permanent disadvantage vis-a-vis Russians technological progress is a question. Dr. Dunning. evidently, doesn't think so. One thing is sure: if the Russians win the race in science, the high standard of living of which we boast will be very small protection against disastt9r. This is a most disturbing thought and iuns contrary to the best aspects of Western civilization. But there is nothing to be gained by tinder- estimating the gravity of the situa- tion. No isolation "iiliose who think it is difiiciiit enough at times to put up with one government will find it possible in harbour a little pity in their hearts for the San Marinos who at the present time have two, one Com- munist and the other non-Commun- ist, each claiming to rcpicsent the wishes of the population and the right to control the police. The non- Communist group has the backing of neighboring Italy and of the United States; while the Commun- ists, naturally, have the support of the Soviet Union. Theppopulation is very smallwjust a few thousand-- and each side has less than a hund- red soldiers at its command. In ad- dition, though, each side has its newspaper which does its best to explain to the'confused populace just why'the government it supports is the legitimate one. San Marino, which claims to he the oldest republic in the world, is certainly the smallest. In other and less troubled days the sort of con-' flict that is going on there now would have been regarded as noth- ing more serious than a comedy of errors. But, in the present state of the world. what. happens in San Marino can easily have reprecuaslons in London. Moscow and Washington and a hundred other capital cities around the world. It ('0llit"I even start a war, though, fortunately, this seems remote at the moment. But if Italy were to grow weary of the disscnsions and decide to put a stop to them. Yugoslavia might be tempted to take a hand; and good- ness only knows where it would end. It is one more confirmation of the truth that in these days no community. however small and in- significant in the general pattern of world politics. is an island to itself. For ,good or ill-- and there seems very little that is good about it at the moment-there is no isolation any more. ' EDITORIAL NOTES 4 I I ' The Citizens Research Institute of Canada has recommended that the Senate be kept in its present "ineffectual state." That ought not to present much of a problem. .. I 'g THE ice MAN COME AT U. N. ASSEMBLY hTh;iD-e"cTiir7am6iiThe Great By Heath Macquarrle The other day I listened with rapt attention to the speech de- livered before the General As- scmhly by the delegate of France. Mr. Georges-Picot, who is his country's permanent re- prescntative to the United Na- lion-5. Mr. Georgesvmcnt is a tall. iinassiiminiz. scholarly man with the hearing and gentility M an aristocrat of the old school. The quality of his address and the manner of its delivery were alike impressive and I ollowed it with keen interest an abun- dant appreciation. Yet I could not prevent feel- ings of sadness and depression from arising within me as I lis- tened to this dignified spokes- man of one of the Great Pow- ers in the United Nations. With more realism than the League of Nations, the second world or- ganization gave special status to certain nations whose position in the world and whose power and wealth ajtltieiithemllo out- raiili others.

OUTCLASSED BY OTHERS But events since the war have so weakened France that she II somewhat outclassed by other Big Five state. IC Inn. of course must be consider in the light of political events since lklbt. Once upon a time France was one of the greatest colonial pow- ers In the world with territories In all continents ranking second In iilu and importance only to the British Empire. But the French overseas Empire has fast fallen away. After I bloody "and costly struggle.

A third area, Vietnam, has been divid- ed into Communist and non-Cnm- munist regions. are quite independent of France. The tiny French holdings in the Indian peninsula - all th at was left after the Seven Years War of 1756-1763 - -were peace- fully absorbed by India some years ago. So from Eastern Asia France has completely with- drawn. In the Middle East. French in- fluence was once a potent factor In political and military consider- ation: for that region.
