Besides. th e Soviets want the lianning of nuclear wea- pons to take priority in any dis- arriiaiiieiit plan. The Vllestern Pow- ers. are ii ary of this attitude. as well they miaht be: for if the free world in: any sup.-riority at all over the gm.-tat l'iiion, it is in the nuclear maid, in all other military liranclies .,armies. nuinher of planes, guns, submarines and the like-the Rus- sians. at-cording to all reports, are far ahead. While tlicsc differences in points of view exist, it. is scarcely reason- able to expect any agreement on the main problem. The delegates now in l.-iiirlou will talk and argue for a week or more, draw up charts and tzraplis. perhaps report "pru- gm.-.-" and ask learn to sit again. Am-I that is as much as l.hey will do; unless and this is the only hope, a -very small one--fear can do what reason, economic need. military facts and moral suasion have failed to do. There has been some speculation that the threat of intercontinental missiles may force the Russians to a more reasonable frame of mind. But this is a slim possibility. Men for uhom the moral aspects of dis- armament have no meaning or com- pulsion are not likely to be. swayed in their thinking by one additional terror. A Difficult Question For some time a dispute has been going nn between the Student (loun- cil of (Tity College, New York. and the Provost hf the College as to whether Communist speakers should he allowed to speak before the stu- dent body. Sonic time ago the stu- dents invited John Gates, editor of the (Tommunist Daily Worker, to speak to them as part of an Acade- mic Freedom Week program. The Provost ininicrliately cancelled the invitation and later his decision was upheld by the heads of all the other Tlllllllf'lllltll'--sllpflorled cdllcges. The rensnii zzicn by the administrators of ttoinniiinism." The students. on lltr other band. called it "an affront to rt.-ti liberties" and appealed to the ll-oard of Education to reverse the decision. This sort of thing crops up every now and again in the United States; and there llFIl't" been a few instances of it in (':uiada. It isn't an easy problem to solve. since a plain "yes" or "no" answer is clearly inadequate. Those who say "no" do so because they feel a responsibility for protect- hlg the students under their care rpm the pressure of Communlstlc propaganda which does no good to any. group of students and which Is latlated to create dGlht.C0hCeI'1l- Eire value, and strength of demo- lfrstitutlono. This, of course, e onelmisatori of the propagand- hmvever much they may try to ith it.-is "rulr unequivocal cotidemnation G Mae they would not have. Whenever a Communist is barred from Im particular platform. the cry goes up in Moscow and Peiping and is broad- cast all over the world: "See how the so-called Tree worldl suppresses freedom." The people of the free world know that this is not so. Il- lh0uKll it must be admitted that freedom is enclosed within bounds here and there-the Southern United States. for example. But the point is that hundreds of millions of people who are not quite sure whether they prefer democracy to communism are helm: subjected to this propaganda every day of the year. Whether free institutions should help it along by refusing Fomniunlsts entry to stu- dent forms and the like or whether whatever risk is involved should be taken for the sake of intellectual freedom--that is the question. One tliing can be said with confidence; the free way of life has nothing to fear from the propaganda of the (Tonimunists, provided its full intel- lectual resources are called into NPl'll('C. Evasive Answer lllr. Diefenhaker asked a simple question: "Is Egypt withholding per- mission for the landing of Canadian rcinforccriients for the hard-pressed UN. Emergency Force in Gaza? Is that a fact or is it not? Why should we have to wait i'0r an elongated and explanatory statement?" The reply from the Prime Minister was: "These questions cannot be answered by yes or no. Tliere have been con- flicting reports about this matter." Why cannot. they be answered by yes or no? Surely, the Canadian Government doesn't have to base its information on matters of this kind on "conflicting reports." There wouldn't be any conflicting reports in the first place if the Government would go to the trouble of ascertain- ing the truth of the matter. Either President Nasser of Egypt will allow the Canadians to land on what he considers to be Egyptian territory. or he will not. Everybody knows that the Queen's Own Rifles were kept out of the Midle East by Nas- ser's orders. In fact, that. was com- mon knowledge for some consider- able time before the Government admitted it. A similar situation prob- ably exists now. But it is incredible that. in the light of past experience. the Government doesn't know en- ough about it to say yes or no. Why must the Government resort to evasiveness when a simple statement of fact would suit everybody con- cerned so much better'.'. EDITORIAL NOTES An educator says that the schools are expected to do too much "to educate everyone and at the same time encourage genius." The latter requirement shouldn't cause too much trouble. Genius, in the few schools where it exists, will let along very well even under the most un- favourable conditions. 0 I I The conversion of salt water into fresh at low cost has long been a dream of scientists.

It will tie 24 feet wide. ha-'e I six inch crust of gravel. and be con- structed under provincial govern- ment supervision. That is routine and not very sensational. What is sendational is the far- sightcslnes: behind this conception. NATIONAL PROGRAM BORN? To begin with. it is the first time the federal government has joined with any provincial government in developing such I read. It. is Just one step in the kind of national program to develop our natural resources such as Conservative leader John Dlcfenbaker so plaus- ibly, so luetlriably yet so unheed- edly advocated in pIrllIment last month. This new highway. said Mr. Sin- clair. who as an engineer helped to survey much of that land years ago. will serve to open up a great new tract of hitherto vtrgln re- source territory. As I first step. it will Allah the cost of shipping asbestos out of Caular; secondly. it will simplify the shipment of of copper from nearby Gnnduc. thirdly. it will enable the big soft- wood forest. resources to be tap- ped; fourth. by making new fish- ing grounds available to the In- dlami, it will reduce the pressure on more southerly rivers. This rew highway is designed to bypass the Alaska ” c" I narrow strip of coastal land bo- longlng to the United sum. which protrudes from Alaska 400 miles southwards down the Pacific shoreline of northern British Col- umbia.

H.: I have had chills and sweating most of the winter. What can I do to prevent such an at- tack next winter? Answer: Chills and sweating comes from I variety of causes.
