B at‘ A R\'-il_.-19-55‘: s7ci:‘.r'“nfrl:;" ____Dangerous Demagogy Mr. Real tluouette is leader of an established political party. the Rallie- ment des ffrerlitistcs, with a t'vc0lI- nized l'epl‘e.-a0nl.'lllnn in the House of Commons. This makes more ghocking his l'le1n:~l;;ogic statements al_3"a youth rally in Montreal over the weekend, to the effect that the theft of weapons from a Montreal armory last Thursday was nothing‘ compared with the “butcher.\'" “f French-Canadian youths conscripted for military service in the Second World War. Well knowing the seriousness of the situation posed by the posses- eion of these stolen weapons~—— enough to equip a small infantry force-—-in the hands of a group of young fanatics, lllr. Caouette chose this occasion to add fuel to the fllme of lawlessness and violence in his province. His is not. fortunate- ly, the voice of Quebec but of a small but turbulent minority. (‘om- ing from a. man in his position. how- ever—and revealing an attitude so at variance with any sense of re- eponsibility—his words are fright- ening. The Quebec provincial police and RCMP are reportedly making every effort to bring the armory raiders to justice. Federal defense installations in the province are also under emergency security regula- tions, and ‘200 soldiers from the “Van-Doos”--the famed Royal 22nd Regiment——have been called into Montreal. It is hoped that these var- ious enforcement bodies which are handling the case will be able to track down the persons responsible. If they should fail, and graver crimes are committed, will these too be condoned by Mr. (‘aouette and his party lieutenants? One possibility in this event would be that the ex- tremists of the opposite persuasion might decide to take the law into their owns hands and a fractricidal conflict would ensue. Would that. too, be grist to Mr. Caouette‘s mill? With an eye on the two Mon- treal by-elections scheduled for February 10, he has already made threats to back separatism within two years unless a four-point ul- timatum is met which would leave Canada powerless to control the value of its currenc_v, would set up provincial barriers aga.in~st free- dom of movement within the coun- try, and make it impossible for Ottawa to give assurance that com- mitments entered into with other states would be honored. Mr. Caouette has so led his party that, according to its own poll. 48 per cent of the members canvassed are ready to co-operate with the separatists if Social Credit is ac- cepted. He will now. presumably, ask the voters to indorse his “ul- timatum", along with his lenient. Views on the arms-theft. incident and its possible consequences. This little man is sowing the wind. Does he really expect to be able to reap the whirlwind with im- puntty? Ancient Examples Among the mysteries wrung from ancient Egypt is the fact that there is nothing new in fund rais- ing campaigns. From hard sell to ‘ honorary degree. every device has been used before. This revelation was uncovered . engaged in delving into 1 _ ' _ cache of documents that were over half 3 mlllennle by "table of an important Jewleh euimpunfty at Celt-o. Besides yield- hgiifliecoveriee of profound import- vgfv _ ’ . ~’ re‘. once on Biblical and theological matters, it is disclosing-—-as if by 1 time machine-—-a. picture of a lost end forgotten period of medieval history. One item allowed to slip out re- cently waa the bit about fundraising. It was discovered in a letter written by one Moses Ben Barhum Tahertl some time between 1007 and 1013. Taherti lived in a Jewish commun- ity in what now is called Tunisia. and he was writing a progress re- port on a campaign to raise money for a Babylonian academy. He ad- vised that the first necessity was to find the right man to head the campaign. If the right man refused. his interest should be awakened by “open and hidden ways" until be ac- cepled. In later correspondence it was found that the way the “right man” had been persuaded was by giving him “a title of respect". And there were other letters indicating how the campaign had been successful b_v means of high-pressure button- holing. “We pleaded day and night for this cause,” says the writer. “We urged the people ceaselessly —-in the synagogues and in the house of study and on their door- steps—until finally something was achieved for this noble cause." That's still a good way of getting financial backing for causes. noble and otherwise. Its antiquity is just a proof of its efficiency. But there were even sharper devices employ- ed in ancient times, and more un- scrupulous practitioners in the art of the hard sell. Of swindling, too, on a grand scale. if we are to be- lieve what Kipling says in his once- famous Departmental Ditties: "Who shall doubt the secret hid Under Clheops’ pyramid Was that the contractor did Cheops out of several millions?" But that, of course, may have been a baseless libel. U.S. Farm Reforms In a message to the U.S. Con- gress last week, President. Johnson said that during the past. three years 3 series of new farm pro- grams and policies has achieved considerable progress. Neverthe- less. the income of the average farm family is still ony 55 per cent of that received by the average nonfarm family. Steadily rising costs are still eating up the major portion 01’ the increase in gross farm income, forcing upon the farmer a cruel cost-price squeeze. "Almost one- half of our nation’s poor," he said, “live in rural areas." Those commodities requiring immediate attention are cotton, wheat, dairy products, sugar and potatoes. At present, the program for these products serves neither the producers, the consumers, nor the taxpayers as well as they should in a forthcoming special mes- sage on poverty. education and hmlth. the President said he will suggest “a series of actions which will assist rural America to real- ize the promise of its potential— to carry out the federal govern- ment’s responsibility to help these citizens help themselves." Other than this promise, his message con- tained little more than an indorse- ment. of legislation currently under consideration. This legislation includes a sys- tem of compensatory payments to dairymen, a program for stabilizing potato prices, and the removal of marketing restrictions on domes- tically produced sugar as a first move to bring down sugar prices. Congress is also being urged to establish a commission to study and appraise the charges involved in supermarket chains in the distri- bution and sale of food. Of significance in the President's message was his insistence that policies to strengthen the economy of rural and urban areas must go hand-in-hand. Prosperity on the farm gives impetus to prosperity in the c1't,v'—n fact. which disposes, once and for all. of the argument that farm relief meastiree are somehow detrimental to the inter- ests of urban taxpayers.

At many ports in Canada. and elsewhere around the world, heavy seas cause serious delays and costly loses. by thus sweep- ing over man-made jellies built . to serve the double purpose of breakwatcr and wharf. Not long ago. for instance, at a port on . the Gulf of St. Lawrence. 1 storm built up such moun- tainous waves that thcy pound- ed over the breakwater and even swept away railroad cars parked on the jetty-top for load- Z in ‘ Now a brilliant young scien- tist al our National Research Council here in Ottawa has de- signed and perfected a new kind of jetty. which lamcs the big- gest breakers and protects ste- - vadores and stores on its top. And in accordance with the say- ing about a better mouselrap. port authorities the world are beating a path to Canada's door to buy the pa- tented plans.

He re- _ cal achievements sound anszincers. in improving the acoustics of a theatre and in sound-proofing your playroom: he recalled those special acous- tic tiles. each drilled with many small holcs. us to dca en sound and prevent its reflec- tion. And he applied this princi- ple in the waves of the sea. Now. after a full year of practical tests. his first wave-absorbing brcakwatcr has been proved a success. The old-style breakwater was . a rubble mound. made by dump- ing rocks in the sea. subject to erosion and, having sloping sides, could not be used as a jetty. Then came the con- crete jetty. with smooth vcrtl- cal sides designed so that ships could wharf up against them for landing. The disadvantage of this ty p e is that when a wave hits it, the water cascades up to twice the height of the original wave. swamoing the top and of- ten swoeplnfl men and stores off its flat surface. HOLES ABSORB WAVES large holes in its seaward side. 19 water pours through these holes instcad of rearing up. hits a solid inner wall. the twirl: around harmlesaly inside the chamber. and finally pours out of the holes again to meet the next w 1: ve head on and thus take much of its force out of it.
