We have never been able to get much light on that “general preliminary meeting of the minds be- tween the two levels of government” which reportedly took place in Trans- port» Minister Pickersgill’s office: at Ottawa in June, 1964, at which time this scheme was discussed. But it came to nothing in the end, and that, of course, is what matters. The year-end- report of Howard C. Gray- ston, CNR vice-president for the At- lantic ‘region. shows’ that such a plan would have been premature indeed. ly under the new setup that an RCMP report would never get to the De- partment of Justice.” The Ottawa Journal, however, takes a different view. “The RCMP Act,” it says, “requires: the commis- | sioner to report directly to the Minis- ter of Justice. This means that the minister is kept informed on the pro- gress of investigation in important cases. When the inquiry is complete, the minister then puts on another cap~and, turning from the police to his..legal advisers, has to ~ decide | whether the evidence is sufficient to | warrant prosecution.

Moreover, as Mr. Grayston says, “a transporta- | --tion service cannot do-well if the area it serves is declining: This is why our successes during 1965 are good _hews for everyone in the region. They are a clear indication that the Atlantic provinces are in-the middle of an economic upswing.” Canadian National economists, who keep a close finger on the econo- mic pulse of the region to prepare for “future transportation needs, have diagnosed_ the outlook. for Atlantic _ Canada as promising. They point out that the region is benefiting from a total capital investment of three bil- lion dollars in the past four years, and world markets for the region’s products are expected to increase. sions of service /furing the year is the continuance, throughout the win- ter, of the bus links between Prince - Edward Island and main train lines, __; previously a summer-only service.

We have that assurance from railway officials, who are as.concerned: as the rest of us in seeing that this great undertaking is brought to fulfillment. The increase in last year’s rail traffic throughout the region, and the prospects for fur- ther gains next year, are but a fore- taste of what is to come. * New Look For Justice w Of the numerous changes involv- ed in Prime Minster Pearson’s recent cabinet reorganization an- nouncement, none has attracted more editorial attention than his proposed splitting up of the -functions of the Department of Justice. ‘Under the new arrangement, this department. - will continue to administer the feder- al courts, draft. legislation, and con- duct: litigation and prosecutions for the*government. But a new depart- ment, headed by the Solicitor Gener- al, © will administer the Royal Cana- dian Mounted Police, the penitentiar- les and the parole’board. _ «The announcement is seen to fol- ‘low the Ontario government's decis-_ ion to.establish a Solicitor General's ~ department to take over, from the provincial Attorney General, such matters-as the Ontario Securities _ Commission, the -insurance branch,. loan and trust companies, and. finan- Attorney General to concentrate More on programs aimed at prevent- ing the growth of: organized crime, ffaudulent bankruptcies and stock ‘The administration of justice ___.. “Noted _among the many _expan-|. | a by the coo] legal minds of the De- | nothing of the case until the final in- them.

Mr. Pearson told a press conference that it would take months to work out the reorganization of government depart- ments to match the cabinet changes he announced; which means that the subject will be a lively topic of dis- cussion when Parliament meets next month. + , u 6 Japan's Attitude No country is in a better position than Japan-to-appreciate what a nu- | ‘top spot - in fact he did not;, not | | John Diefenbaker or hate him, | all must admit that he occupies | their thoughts more than any ot- | any other he influences the clear threat means, and it is viewing | ' with understandable misgiving the progress which Communist China is making in its nuclear tests.

Japan and the United States fac a similar dilemma in regard to rela- + tions with China, whose leaders have opposed peaceful coexistence with countries of other ideologies, Mr. Sato said.

Nevertheless, the premier was hopeful that the United States would come to have friendly relations with Peking as soon as possible. Japan, he pointed out, has normalized its rela- tions with the Republic of Korea, and it desired to do the same with Com- munist China. “If Communist China understood our position,” he insisted, “we could coexist.” All that was-re- “quired was acceptance ‘of the prin- he He noted that a few years ago ciple of “non-interference and res-: pect for the principles of territorial integrity.” rt ° Does that seem a futile expecta- tioin?
