DIABLOTTETOIVN, TUESDAY, AUGUST 81, 194.8 New Health more It Is interesting to learn that the Prince Edrward island, Nova Scotia and New Brunswick Ministers of Health are to confer in Ottawa on September 81-h with the Notional Health and Welfare Minister, Hon. Pa-ul Martin, relative to the National Health programme passed at the last session of Parliament. The program for which the Dominion is con- tributing $30,000,000 for ‘thlis year calls for Dominion-Provincial co-operartion working out the 1. basis for distribution of the funds. A few days ‘ ago Mr. Martin held a conference in Toronto with Ontario's health minister, Hon. Russell T. Kelly, and he will leave Ottawa in a few weeks 7 lo hold similar discussions with some of the western provincial health minister's. l A lead-ing subject for discussion has to do with one of the grants available to the Province monthly, the Professional Training grant. This ombunts to $7,473 per annu-m to be utilized for the training of those desirous of entering the Pub-Ill: Health field, either as doctors, nurses, oanitary inspectors, nutritionists, etc. Allow- ances will be made out of this allocation to suit- able applican-ts qualified to receive this training, and for their eventual employment in the depart- ment. - Hon. Mr. Matheson, Minister of Health, has gone fully into the question, and will be in a position to submit the Government's views for the consideration of the Federal authorities. ‘llomlnlon Advloa Wanted A despatch from Washington on Saturday l Innounced that the State Department was hopeful of a satisfactory settlement of the ‘differences between the Western Powers and Soviet Russia. This was to. be constituted by the adoption of a United States of Europe, with one Federal Parliament controlling the main policies of some ‘l6 different nations, each of which would be allowed to run their own domes- tic arffairs, so long as these did not clash with the powers and authority of the Federation Government. A European ‘Parliament would select its Federal Government. But, of course, there must be elaborate details as to ways and moons before it could become an accomplished fact, and, unfortunately, the United Nations Organization has not proved a very satisfactory example of how such a parliament could oper- ate. It has been too urvwieldly, too doctrinaire, and altogether too undemocratic to catch the iancy of the various countries whose future is It stake. The principal exponent of this new form of Government is France, with the United States declaring its sympathetic su-pport provided the other notions concerned are willing to go ahead. Already there is a smaller organization ‘in being, consisting of Britain, France, Bel- gium, the Netherlands and Luxembourg; and France, up till Saturday, was anxious to have a meeting of those in November in order to convene an assembly of the sixteen European nations to sound out their views and to devise some means by which o Federal Europe could be evolved. Britain has nct given its assent to the proposal as yet, declaring that it must first con- sult the Dominions. lt is for this purpose that ‘the meeting of the Dominions representatives in October assumes more than usual import- ance, ond that is why Prime Minister King is anxious to be there in person, to represent the reaction of Canada as well as the Common- wealth as o whole. The fall of the l0th French Government since the war will interfere with these plans; and this shows the wisdom of the Britislh Government in going slowly before put- ting her weight behind the project. ____________ Ontario Pats lls _ As mentioned yesterday, it is highly grati- fying having experienced newspapermen visit us an? report through their publications what they "came for to see." lt is likewise intriguing and encouraging to find a weekly of the stand- ing and reputation of Saturday Night, Toronto, sending a representative all the way to the Marr- ti-mes to give them a kindly pot on the back on account of enterprise in the development of minor industries. ln an informative article by Miss Harriet Parsons in the current issue we are told all about the "New Outlook" the Mari- times have attained in secondary industry, and haw nice it appears to rfisitors of an inquiring turn of mind. There is a brief reference to this Province, but greater attention is directed to New Brunswick and Nova Scotia, Nova Scotia especially, as having the natural resources neces- sary for industrial expansion. Miss Parsons specially commends our neighbour's fishing ent- =erprise, but has not much to say about our ‘pwn; perhaps on her visit she did not get in touch with the right people, those who are de- voting special efforts to raise ‘our fisheries to the forefront of exportoble products. lt is a mis- _toke on the part of key man not to disclose to Jrewopaper writers the plans and progress they ‘have in view for furthering the particular in- ‘ terosts in which we are engaged. Perhaps Miss iParsons could have been in.the happy position fof disclosing to the readers of her publication :-. the "Forwafd Look" we are disployi In this connection. As iFlr rlro glver credit on‘ y to two . Research Ioards, thou of Nova Scotio and Ernphsis a-ll through her article is laid on the advantageous position of the Maritimes for the development of an export as against a Canadian market. That, un-fortunately, is the "Old Look" of Ontario-mot to encourage the Maritimes to in the central provinces, not to mention the west, hence the freight rate handicap. Says Miss Parsons: ”The export trade ap- pears to offer almost unlimited possibilities for Maritime manufacturing expansion, especial- ly in secondary industries using Maritime raw materials or manufactured ports." ls that so? What about protective duties in foreign ports and the rote of exchange? We are fortunate in being adjacent to ocean ports,- it is true, but what use is that when the markets to which they naturally lead are bolted and barred, by economic and tariff restrictions? The natural market of the Maritimes is south of the border, Con-federation played havoc with that, and now the Government by its freight rates embargo, is driving us out of the Canadian market as well. The bulk of the consuming public is West of the Maritimes, with Montreal and Toronto as the drstrrbuting centres. lt is cdld comfort at this late date to be told that our geographicobsitu- atlcn as a "Pier in the Atlantic’ gives us "an rdeol position to take advantage of an ex- Pflfldilrg export and import trade," which is de- nied us. _ What we want and want badly is an ex- parrdrng market on an equal footing in the Can- adian consumers’ market. It was for this we were lured into Confederation and induced to abandon our natural market to the south. As rt rs now we buy most of our supplies in and send most of our hard-earned money to the can. tral Provrnces only to be told to market what we may produce abroad, where the only prospozt we have of doing so is by supplying q superior product at less cost than our competitors; which in turn means we must utilize cheaper labour, and let our better qualified young men and womengo elsewhere for employment. No, our respective political parties will have m do better than that, and to begin with so regulate our freight rates as to provide a square deal for Maritime products in Canada, be she a Dominion or a Nlation.

Thou, Lord, wIIt bless the right-l \ dIsposaI of more food than one who labors with equal Interior-y 1n some meztel pursult. Doctors tell us that. our bodies are wasted more rapidly by vigorous brain work than by physical exercise. Indeed, 1t. is claimed by our best authorities 1n physiology ohm three hours of severe brain work are equal to ten hours of physical tail. If this be true, then the per- son who docs mental work for ten or twelve hours per day really needs more food to sustain his strength than s. person who em- ploys his muscles for the same length of time. But. as already stated. the mus- cle worker may be able 1.0 dis- pose of more food than the brat“. worker, though he needs less since his vital forces are not so completely used up by his work In other words, the job at the muscle worker being less exhaus- tive. he can art more and gel. a- way wfth 1t.

The whole basis of the Charter. the whole basis of the organization which 1t. created. was um there would be e acne“! unison. a real spirit of co-operat- Ion, between member states. There might. from time to tlrme be occas- l0n to deal with some unruly and turbulent state which refused to ablde by the decisions of one Security Council. For that purPole. the Council would be equIpped with better means of enforcing the will of the community than its per- decessor. the Council of the League. had possessed But nobody doubted that the Council itself would not as a world body. exercising Its authority 1m- pan-Ially for the general good. And ironically enough, there was a cheerful assumption that the Councfl and the other ‘organ!’ would derive much of thelr author-try and effectiveness from the co-operatlon of the gzeat powers. . Yet, from-the very begfnnlng. that co-operstfcn did not exist. Sharp differences but already shown themselves even before the first meetings of the Security Council and Assembly. It was a disaster that bhe very first. state to be the subject of a complaint. to the Councfl was s. great power. The whole attitude of the Sovlet Government to the Council and to Its fellow members of the Council was inevitably affected by the fact of having been arraigned before 1r as a dlsturber of good relations. Yet. the development which came was probably 1n any ooee fnevf- table. For 1t. 1s an axiom of Soviet. thought that the world 1a neces- sarfly divided Into two conflfctlng "camps" It. 1s a doetrfne whIoh was by no means first enunciated when the "Comb-storm" was established 1n 1947.

It. 1e true that. both Lenin and StaLIn have both repeatedly 1n- slsted that. the exlstence of basic conflict does not. preclude the possibility, on grounds of expedi- ency. of agreements or of oo- operafion with countries of the other "camp." n such co-ooerollofl 1s considered b0 serve the P0111‘? and needs of the Sovfet.
