N, 1954 Telephone Eavesdropper in iiioroiiglily bad taste if not worse is the conduct of a Briusli liieiiioer oi Par..a- nient who lislcned in or. a telepiione con- versation between Buckingham Palace and Caiiada House and then divulged what he heard. it seems that one Tom Driberg, a Labor M.P., accidcntaliy found his wires crossed so that he heard a discussion about a proposed speech of the Duke of Edin-, burgh in which he was to reveal ”lilLl('lll new iniorniaiioii gained during his recent trip to Canada." Not content with listening to a private coiiversation between the office of the Canadian High Commissioner and the Roy- al Palace, he wrote an account of it in his column in a London Sunday paper. Such conduct in relation to private per-i sons or firms would be despicable. Whenl the parties concerned are aciing on behalf of this country and the Royal Family it isl quite intolerable. The British Post Office is: checking the telephone system, but takesl the view that Dribcrg's action ”is not an offence under any Post Office legislation." it may not be an offence to the Post Office, but it is most offensive to Caiia- dians. If the British House of Commons is concerned for its reputation for elementary courtesy it will discipline its member who. has shown himself so lacking in that qual-l ity. Report On Nova Scotia This week the Government of Nova Scotia will receive the report, of an eco-, nomic survey. The highlights. however,l have already been published in the Ameri-l can magazine, Business Week, which wouldl indicate that the firm of consultants is at least equally interested in promoting its own business prospects. p The report. lists specific industries which, might find Nova Scotia a favorable locationl or which can be further expanded. It also urges improvement of the industrial loans board, which should publicise its credit- extension services more widely and operate with a minimum of governmental interfer- ence. Also proposed is the establishment of, I business development corporation. The report ”pretty well eliminates power-oriented industries, because power is costly and limited.” This consideration ”'y rc:i":":d by p:3r me'.i:"ds ct farm-l in -irir a.id cr.isi:n. l..th the ion of sv. he and poultry, the live- s.: piipuiaticn has Sl'.0i.'n a marked de- cr: is ' during the pas. fifty years. in gen- cr:il, tic fertility of lift! soil is not improv- in: (l'3-ipiift the fact that. during the past fifty yczxrs, the importation of commercial feriilizcr has increased from none to around 4ti,(i(iU tons annually. At present about two million bushels are imported every year. Large areas of marginal land have been exploited by stripping them of their forest cover and by exhausting their fertility in producing agi'iculttii'al crops without the use of manure or fertilizer. Large areas of land suitable only for forest growth are now producing nothing of value. The Dominion census of 1951 showed that 434 farms, com- prising 27.-'ll8 acres, had been abandoned. Data for 1951 are not available, but it is claimed in the report that the number of abandoned farms has greatly increased dur- ing the last decade. Among these are a number of good farms which are not oc- cupied or in production owing to the ad- vanced age of the owners and the scarcity of farm labor. Particular emphasis is placed on the importance of woodlands in the economy, of the Province. The indiscriminate re-l moval of the forest cover and the impover-l ishmcnt of much of the land has been fol-l lowed by a lowering of the water table. The flow of the water in streams has decreas- ed and many springs, brooks and wells have dried up. thus adding to the expense of ob-, taining and maintaining farm water sup- plies. In this connection reference is made to the appointment of provincial foresters4 and the passing of a Forestry Act by the Provincial Government, the first of its kind in Canada dealing with privately owned! woodland. It is hoped that this Act will dis- courage the age-old practice of clear cut- ting, and thus sufficient trees will be leftl on a wood lot to ensure its future. 8):- i mcnds a thorough survey of the situation. regarding the use and management of land, the value of livestock and manure, the econ- omic use of fertilizer. to prevent waste. loss from erosion, from careless practices about a farm and farming depends. annual rush of city dwellers was out making their rounds looking, for Christmas trees people Among other things the report l'eC0l'll-lpi'opei'ty i'l2lilS end with the city llimiis.

Oboe;-val THE LAST .. air 'i.uiuion Smitliers. a Coli- servative member of the Brit h House of Commons, had died. ay. only ten years ago. the event prob- ably woudl have passed almost un- noticed. except by his family and close friends. for he was not a very prominent man in political circles or in any other phase of the na- tional liife. But. because he lived mill 1: week ago. his passing was a news event of some importance. It marks, in a sense. the end of an era. He called himself. and was called by others. "the only real Tory." ' During his thirty years in Par- liament Sir Waldron saw -with dismay and sorrow - the growth and rapid development of that unique political doctrine. British Socialism. (I say "unique" be- cause there is nothing quite like it anywhere in the world.) He saw it achieving one victory after an- other until, finalily. it worked its way into his own political party. 0 O I In the last ten years or so Brit- ish Conservatism has gone so far to the Left that at present there is very little difference between the thinking of conventional Conserva- tives and that of conventional So- cialists. The fact of the matter is that the Churchills. the Edem. land the Butlers. on the one side. and the Attlees. the Morrisons, and come together in a political unity without any great difficulty and without any surrendering of basic beliefs on either side. They could not. of course, take all their party colleagues with them. On the Socialist side Aneurin Bevan and a few others would scorn any such combination. On the Conservative side, now that Sir Waldron is gone, there would be few, very few, dissidents; but while he lived he counted himself a happy man for never ceasing to denounce Socialism and all its works, including its peculiarly British moderation. That is why, in I sense, his death marks the end of an en. There in perhaps no man in the Commons, or likely to be there in the foreseeable future. in take his place as a spokesman for a way of life which, in all probability, England will never lee again. . . . . This expansion of the socialisilc theory of government must be reckoned as one of the chief de- Velopments of our times -- from the long-range point of view, that is. It seems incredible that it could have happened so quickly - it took no more than a generation or two, once it got well started -- but the fact is that there is not a genuinely conservative force in control of government anywhere in the free world at the present time. (1 am thinking. of course, not of party names, but of the po- litical philosophies behind them.) in Britain the "welfare state” is just as much a political fact under Churchill and the Conserva- tives aa it was under Attlce and the Socialists. It seems likely that. from now on. no change in admin- istration will have any noticeable effect on that social trend. in this country the situation is similar. in due time the Conservative Party will come to office; but that will not mean any tampering with so- cial legislation that has been secur- ed. In fact. about the only dispute the Gaitskills. on the other. could” TOBY Conservatives is about methods to be used in sustaining and increas- in; social security by legislation Any political candidate these days who talked real Conservatism, as it used to be understood, would probably manage to get one vote -his own. In the United States Republican. and Democrats (with a few dis. sldenta on each side) are trying to outdo one another in social action, The present Republican admin. istration is an liberal as any in the Roosevelt era. In fact,, sine, President Eisenhower came to o(. fice, many millions of wage-enrn. ers in various categories, hitheno unrecognized for purposes of so. cial legislation. have been added to the social security rolls. There in, to be sure. I amau group of anti-social welfare espon. ents in Congress; but it doesn't amount to very much really and there is little probability of it: be. coming a predominant force in American politics. And so one might go on and explore one coun- try after anothey in the demo. cratic system and not find on; that lies a government definitely hostile to the Welfare State con- cept. The general belief. with oc. casional modifications here and there, seems to be that moderate Socialism, in the sense in which it is understood in Britain and the United States - just to mention two of a goodly company in the surest and perhaps the only strong bulwark against the Corn- munist heresy. There are still I few political students who take the opposite view and say with Sir Waldron Smithers that "there is no differ- ence between Socialism and Com- munism - they are the same thing”; but the story of the pro- gres sof Communism seems to re- fute that belief. It appears that Communism has thrived only "I those countries which in the pan had had little or nothing in the way of social welfare.

Thcsc, after being edited and co-oruinaicrl, have now bccn printed in the form of a bulletin for dis- tribution in co-operation wi.h the Depart- ment of Education. The bulletin nicriis careful stuciy and C0llSi(l9i'allOfl, and it is to be hoped that the l.c:islaiuiie aa its ncxi session will devote some time to discussing its recommendations. In reviewing the present situation the report points out that only 36 per cent of our total area of 1,397,761) acres can be classed as land well suited to farming. Most of the agricultural soils are acid to strong- ly acid and their natural fertility is lowf Owing to topography and texture, they are subject to erosion unless protected by grass or forest cover. Of the total area 46.2 per . cent may be classed as improved land, mak- ing Prince Edward Island "the most agri- cultural province of Canada." New Bruns- wick nnd Nova Scotia have 7 per cent and 10 per cent of improved land. respectively. 1130 fertility of large areas of po- hltlnlly good land, however, has been sailed before the mast on whaling and seal- ing vr-sscls and was made mate of a ship cngagcd in Antarctic exploration.

O I 0 It has long been observed that workers in noisy surroundings can frequently con- verse with case although their voices are drowned out so far as visitors are concern- ed. Research at the University of Indiana indicatcs that one ear of a time may be made insensitive to sound. Asked to com- pare a brief note heard in one ear with a continuous note heard in the other. they decided on average that the tones matched when the first was actually lea than orie- tenth as loud as the other. Most of the reduction took place in one minute. Oi1 the basis of these findings, the obvious way to attract attention is in stop talking fmm time to time. :5 DAIRYLVG AND OTHER . . zincl also in textbook infiltration. MATTERS ll)r.
