PAGE 4 MONDAY, JULY 21, 1958. lmportant Question on his arrival in Washington to confer with Secretary of State Dulles and British Foreign Secretary Lloyd, Canada’s External Affairs Minister Smith stated that the Canadian Gov: ernment fa/vouredl the creation of a l. U.N. force to be sent to Jordan and that, 'meanwhilenit supported Bri- tain’s action in sending troops at the request of King Hussein. He added that Canada was prepared to make a “contribution” if a UN. force were. decided on. ’ Dr. Smith neglected to say, how- ever, what Canada’s position would be 'should the UN. General Assembly from.Jordan and the United States to withdraw the marines from Leban- on, without any provisron being made for a' UN. force—Whether this omission was by intention or by an oversight is not known; but certainly it is a matter of some importance. The United States’ delegation at the UN. will authorize the sending of an in: insure their security. But this is by no means certain, as a number of neu- tralist countries are opposed to the proposal—j ust how many is uncertain at the moment. » a p I Should the Assembly not agree to send a U.N'.fforce or even support, by a two—thirds vote, the, Soviet demand for an unconditional withdrawal of American and British forces, what then? Would the. Canadian Govern- ment support the British and Am- ericans in their determination to keep w atever the consequences, or would it support the majority decision? At ' present this is a hypothetiCal ques- tion, but ,it could easily turn intg a practical one within the next few days. WeI believe that the Canadian people ingeneral would want the Gov- ernment to support Britain and the 9 United States, regardless of what the » General Assembly might do. RelIgous Tolerance The Most Reverend Philip Carr- ington, Anglican Archbishop of Que- vbec, who is now in London attending the Lambeth Conference, recently preached in St. Paul's Cathedral. In the course of his sermon His Grace said this: “After 23 years as Bishop and Archbishop of Quebec I‘ can de- . voutly thank God for the courtesy, l kindness and understanding which ‘ 'have been accorded to us by. the bishops and clergy of the Roman Catholic Church and the general goodwill of the Provincial au- g thorities.” ' v Archbishop Carrington went on to say that his diocese is a “very min- ute” one in a Province with several million French Canadians; and he wondered “whether there is anywhere ' else on the face of the earth where two races have lived together so suc- cessfully in mutual respect and af—l, ; fection.” There are times—especially pre- ceding federal elections—when dem— agogues of both English-speaking and French—speaking Canada try to make might be. There are even charges of religious intolerance. Well, A‘rch- bishop Carrington knows whereof he ' speaks; and his words to the contrary effect will be welcomed by people of goodwill in both cultural traditions. A fine thing it is, too, for Canada as a. whole. Defence Estimates at Ottawa they were chided on‘sev- eral occasions by opposition critics for their reluctance to have high-ranking military officers, who were critical of defence policy, appear before the ap— propriate Commons’ committee and state their views. It was felt by the Opposition—rightly. we think—that such testimony would be of value to thevcommittee in probing costs and preparing recommendations. » Now, however, the Conservatives appear to take a different view. Re- cently, when it was suggested that Lt. Gen. Guy Simonds, former Chief of the General Staff, and Maj.-Gen. W.H.S. Maclin, former Adjutant-Gen- eral, both of whom have been. critical of Government policy (leeral and Conservative) in defence matters, be order Britain to remove her troops seems confident that! the Assembly. out that relations are not what they I When the Liberals were in power ternational force to both countries to‘ . th it forces in Jordan-and Lebanon, ‘ 4 called before the Estimates Com- mittee, a spokesman for the Gov- ernment said it would bring “nothing but negatiVe results.” ‘ .But the function of a Commons Estimates’ Committee is not merely to round up support for official policy and departmental- spending in any particular field. If that were all, it woiild be difficult to justify the com- mittee’s existence. It has the duty to probe into all phases'of expenditure, to see which are justified and which are not. As far as defence costs are concerned, who are more qualified to offer suggestions than men who have tablishment? This does not mean that govern the committee’s findings. But surely they would be of value in help- ing to’ reach a reasonable judgement. ; .WGQOOcl.

REPORT I v . PrOposed . Science Fair By Patrick Nicholson Special Correspondent for The'Gnai-dian OTTAWA — Th e loudest. and long the only, voice in our Parli- ament urging greater attention to our scientific education and re- search, hasbeen that of the M.P. for Ontario’s “Chemical Valley" - Mr. J. W. Murphy, 'Many years ago, that Conser- vative M.P. frbm Sarni-a propos- ' ed the setting up of a parliamen- ' tary‘ committee on research. He repeatedly urged this. “Get that man out of my hair,” demanded the then Trade Minister C. D. Howe. ‘ ‘ Too much industrial research is unported as a finished U.S.A. product, declared Mr. Murphy. Too little use is made of scient- ific in Canadian industrial and government circles, he ins-ist- ed, with the result that there is little incentive for our youngsters to » undertake scientific training, and even less incentive for the few thus trained to remain in Canada. The years have passed, and the sputuiks are passing overhead. But none of those sputuiks are “made in Canada.” ’ Even the short-sighted mockers can now see that Mr. Murphy was right. Therold war of today and tomorrow is being fought on drawing boards of industrial re- search laboratories. And in train— ing for this new cold war, we and indeed the whole free world are lagging disastnously behind the Russians, both in quantity and quality. ASKS SCIENCE FAIR Ever searching around for new means to stimulate interest in scientific education, Mr. Murphy’s alert mind has now lighted upon a new scheme. This would en: able every gadget-minded young- ster to strive for recognition as th superman of his (or her) h me town, ,even as the super— , _ man of Canada, praised and re-, warded for ingenuity and ‘inven— tiveness in designing and making working models of his favourite scientific gadget, whether it might be a Aspace ship, or a walkie-talk- is, or a booby-trap for teacher, or something called “X”, a mys- tery novelty never thought up be— fore. The means proposed by Mr. Murphy to attain this worthwhile objective is wh at he calls a “Science Fair.” His idea is that his own comm unity, Sarnia. i should appropriately set the pat— tern for Canada. For SarnIia is the home of our greatest concen- tration of scientific industries. At the fair, entries from all would be welcomed. Prizes would be offered for the most ingenious and the best-constru’cted models. Cost of construction of entries would not be a factor in the judg-’ ing: a clever idea fashioned out of scrap lumber woiild outrank a humde model incorporated into gleaming steel. ' ‘ “My idea is a-sort of Junior Science on Parade,” Mr. ‘Murphy told me, as be enlarged on his novel project in his Parliamen- tary office here. “science exhib- be entened in an exhibition, which I hope would be repeated each- year.

It has been shown that there is a high correlation between heavy consumption of alchol, when combined with heavy smok- ing, and development of cancers of the oral cavity and larynx. SERIOUS HAZARD . .Dr. Ernest L. Wynder recent- ly told a meeting of the Ameri- can Cancer Society that for the heavy smoker who consistently drinks seven or more “shots of hard liquor each day, the risk of developing these cancers is 10 times as great for the per- son who smokes the same am- ount but drinks duly moderate- Cancer of the oral cavity in- cidentally, includes the tongue, gums, buccal mucosa, palate, ton Jsils and pharynx.

We can’t say at this time whether alcohol alone can tiatc those cancers since the re- searchers have been unable as yet to finds sufficient number of heavy drinkers who do not smoke. Yet -Dr. Wynder has some the- ories as to why excessive drink- ing of alcohol increases the nisk of certain cancers. llt is ofltEn stated that alcohol acts directly upon the tissues, 'making them more permeable to tobacco. Or, perhaps it acts sy- stematically by producing a nu- tritional deficiency which, in turn, induces tissue changes, making them more susceptible to' can- cer. v . ' .

On September 13, 1922, the mercury bubbled up to 136.4 de- g r e es Fahrenheit in Azizia’s shade - the highest temperature ever recorded under standard conditions. ~ The United States can boast of temperatures almost as high. At one time or another, the ther- mometer has climbed above 100 in every state of the Union. The highest reading was 134 degrees in Death Valley California, on July 10, 1913. MOVING NORTH I These records may soon be broken. Cilimatologists report the world has been getting warmer over the past 40 or 50 years. > Scientist are not certain what is causing the warming, but it may be part of ,the Ice Age cycle. During the history of the earth, , the ice at the poles has advanc- ed and retreated a number of times. At present it is retreating.

But official temperatures are re- corded by ventilated thermome- ters in shaded spots. Contrary to popular belief the temperature of the air is not higher in the sun, than it is in the shade.

This is well above ,the boiling. point of water, and plenty hot enough to boil an. egg or simmer a stew. However the hot air breathed by the subjects was cooled as much membranes lining the nose. mouth, and breathing passages before it reached the lungs. Still higher temperatures can be borne briefly.
