Rene Levesque, minister of i'esources in the Quebec cabinet. has been causing some concern of lhte by his interpretation of the problems facing French Canada. Apparently he identifies French Canada with Quebec exclusively, ad insists that the interests of Que- must be placed ahead of all oth- efldonsiderations. His statements hive had one good result, however, ffii they have prompted Le Devoir. the influential French-language Montreal daily. to come out strong- ly in support of more moderate views. The paper. which was founded by Henri Bourassa and has taken afleading part in championing Que- bec grievances. has made its pos- ition known in two articles by Editor Claude Ryan, supporting the “Can- adian” view and rejecting “defeat- ist and absolutist interpretations” of Confederation history. They take into account “the changes that have taken place in English-Can- adian opinion in the past 25 years" and suggest that "it is.possible and desirable to reform our federalism so that it will become acceptable to Canadians of both language gloups.” f 1\'Ir.,Ryan says his paper has traditionally believed that “French- Qanadians should be involved in Qanada from coast to coast.“ Que- ‘ c's economy. he points out, de- inds on external markets and ex- tzarnal capital development. and would have to continue to seek very close connections with the rest of the country or become a “closer sptellite of the United States.” .3 Remaining in Confederation. he insists. offers French Canadians the possibility of “maintaining and developing" French culture outside (if Quebec and the prospect of join- ipg in the development of a “new liind of society” which would per- rl'iit the coexistence of two flourish- ing cultures. The editor adds that he is not advocating the status quo. nor that Quebec‘s own problems should be neglected in favor of the wider Can. tdian view. Problems that belong to Quebec alone. he says, must be solved in the interests of Quebec: lut he specifically rejects the views Mr. Levesque has recently been ex- 1 l i tressing with increasing conviction. It is well that Le Devoir’s voice as been raised at this time, and with the authority that no English hnguage paper could hope to ex- lrcise in interpreting French Can- e‘dian opinion. National Standards Needed At Winnipeg recently. the ten provincial ministers of education called upon the federal government to provide 50 per cent of the cost of maintaining the hundreds of voca- tional schools that have been spring- ing up across the country. They also asked Ottawa to increase its share of the cost of training tech- nical. and'vocational teachers from It to 75 per cent. The flaw in this provincial re- cognition that there should be a Moral role in education. notes The Globe and Mall. is that the provinces flew it as a strictly one-way pro- . _> - .

Phimiste, Toronto’s director of education, who proposed that the provincial departments of education cooperate to decide what the na- tion's educational goals should be. and then cooperate to produce the kind of standardization and plan- ning that is necessary to achieve these goals. Probably this is the only way to break the constitutional roadblock of provincial control of education and the local-autonomy roadblock of school boards. As pointed out by our Toronto contemporary in com~ menting on Dr. Phimiste’s state- ments. the rights of Canadian child- ren and the nation should come first. In this country of constantly shifting population a child may be educated in the Maritimes, pass his working life in Ontario. and spend his pension in British Columba. The education available to him should be such as to enable him and the country to prosper. and it should be equally available to him in any part of the country. If the prov- inces will not submit to federal au- thority to achieve these worthy ends, they ought at least to cooper- ate among themselves to do it. The Queen's Visit Canada will issue a large new five-cent stamp in honor of the Queen's visit next month. This is just another sign that the govern- ment has no intention of yielding to separatist threats and calling off the trip. The Queen will be in Charlottetown on schedule on Octo- ber 6, and in Quebec City. also on schedule. on October 7. She will be in Ottawa for a brief period, and Prime Minister Pearson has intimat- ed that the government is consider- ing inviting Her Majesty to address both Houses of Parliament on that occasion. This is the proper course, and would lend emphasis to the fact that the Queen is coming here not as part of some British demonstra- tion of power but as head of our state and at the specific invitation of Canada itself. As the French 1 a n g u a g e newspaper. I‘Action. points out, the Crown is not the “symbol of colonialism” in this country. It is the symbol of an emancipation that has continued to move forward. "Let the Queen,” it says. “have confidence in our peo- ple. They know that yesterday‘s history was necessary to prepare for tomorrow's history.” And the Montreal Gazette adds a cogent thought when it says: "To would not only be resented in the rest of Canada. it would. be an in- l l l cancel the tour at this late date I Just No Camparison I still to Quebec above all.” MP5 who are still being twitted about their raise to $18,000 can point, by way of contrast. to the cleanup the Beatles made in their 30-day tour of Canada and the Un- ited States. A survey made by the Associated Press of some 15 of the cities visited by those mop-topped . British imports indicates that they ' picked up well over a million dol- . lars. i One promoter estimated they ‘ earned about $1,000 a minute for a 40-minute stint in Milwaukee. ,An- other said some agents for the Beatles were given a cheque for “$91,670 for" a one-night stand at‘the Cow Palace in San Francisco. A Kansas City promoter paid them $150,000 for a single appearance in that city. Now comes word that the Brit- ish company which made the gui- tars used by the Beatles has sold a million dollars worth of the in- struments on the strength of the enthusiasm engendered by the en- tertainers. No wonder that at that Conser- vative conference in Fredericton earlier this month, some plaintive criticism was heard about the Beat, les putting it all over our politicians in capitalizing on modern publicity techniques!

Van Dellea Cancer detection involves diagnosing the disease before it gets a head start. All physicians are familiar with the methods used but some do not have the special equipment or training needed for all the tests. Best re- sults are obtained when phyel- cal examinations are done an- anally. Cancers of the skin, lips. mouth. tongue. sent a can be seen. Simple instruments uncover those in the nose, throat. larynx. vagina. cervix. rectum. and the last part of the large intestine. In contrast. more complicated scopes requir- ing special technlcs are needed to detect: carcinomas of the bronchi. esophagus, stomach. and urinary tract. Another group of tumors can be felt when they get large enough. These include those in the salivary glands. thyroid lym- ph glands. breast. rectum, pro- state, testes. uterus. and ovar- ies. Some growths in the liver, pancreas. small intestine, lungs, kidneys, brain. bone. stomach, and esophagus are inaccessible and .cannot be identified via or- dinary examination. The X-ray is used for his . If tests are negative, but the disease is suspected, an explora- tory operation is necessary. This is not always within the realm of cancer detection. because symptoms usually are present before surgery is recommended Not long ago a round, coin- sized shadow was discovered during a routine chest X-ray of a 65-year-old man. It was near the edge of a lung in an area that is inaccessible to the bron- choscope. An exploratory opera- tion was done to determine whe- ther cancer was present. It was. but the man w' Why is early detection impor- tant? The cardinal symptoms of many malignancies usually de- velop after the lesion is well ad- vanced. Pain. for example. us- ually does not occur until the disease spreads to other organs. At least 35 per cent of cancers in men and 65 per cent in wom- en can be detected by direct ex- amination.

Besides this risk. the volcanic nature of Latin American inter- nal politics is itself an unpre-y dictable factor. Bolivia's cur-‘ rent political turbulence is a l case in point. De Gaulle is due i there in a week’s time. . i Carol Kennedyv Press Staff riter The president is known to take a fatalistic view of his des- tiny—which he habitually links_ with that of France—and there I is even a feeling in Paris that while not courting martyrdom. de Gaulle would consider the possibility with equanimity. William Millinship, Paris cor- respondent of the London 0h. server. a Sunday neWSpape. quotes a high Gaulllst official as saying: “De Gaulle is not. trying to commit suicide, of course. But if this tour of South America did kill him he would consider it ‘une belle mort.’ the soldier‘s ; death in the service of his coun- try. like that of President Ken- - nedy." SEES "THIRD FORCE“ What. besides an undoubted harvest of personal and national glory, is de Gaulle hoping to reap from his bold tour? His basic belief in disengagement from the rival clutches of U.S. and Soviet power politics pro- vides the basis of his strategy in Europe and utheast Asia. Almost certainly this implies the drive behind the Latin American venture. T'ie tour may partly repre- sent an effort South American republics away tom the Washington orientation . into de Gaulle’s visionary con- i‘ cept of a “third force" wielding influence between the two ma- jor power blocks. .

Aviators A rid Missiles Christian Science Monitor The new weapons announced by President Johnson deal with missile warfare. They include two systems for destroying arm- ed satellites. in case the Bus- sians break the agreement not to use space for military purpos- es. The third is a radar system to bend around the earth‘s cur- vature and detect missile firings almost as soon as they occur. Hitherto military radar has been limited to the line of sig'it. The President undoubtedly in- tended. by making these announ- cements. to counter the charge. of Senator Goldwater that he and the Kennedy administra- tion had not brought in new weapons systems. ltroversy will also diminish in limportance. The most im lant new manned aircraft tit-at. the Johnson administration is pushing is a very fast. low-fly- ing airplane which could. if de- sired. carry his nuclear weap- ons as well as be used tactically. i This is probably the best man- |ned bomber that can now be made. i It the Russians can hit a 0-2. how much more easily could they knock down the behemotha of the air.
