We are all familiar with the outlines of his story, how he blazed his way through dramatic careers as a Cana- dian financier. a peer at 37, a. news- paper magnate in the l'nited King‘- doni. a crusader in many causes, a power in British politics and a philanthropist on a. major scale In his later years. His death yesterday has called forth many tributes. not only with regard to the achieve- of this extraordinary man but to his endearing personal traits as Well. Two phases of his career will be uppermost; in the minds of many of our readers at this time. One was the dynamic part he played in Britain‘s economic battle for sur- ‘vival during the Second World War when he was in his 60s. Summoned by Churchill to become minister of aircraft after the German break. through of Holland and Belgium, Beaverbrook was the driving force behind the production of planes for the Rattle of Britain. War histor- iaus that that epochal battle couldn't have been won without. him. Though born In the neighbor- hood of Toronto, he had spent his boyhood years in Ncw Brunswick, and his deep attachment to the province of his adoption showed it- aelf in many ways. The benefactione ran into many millions of dollars, and included an art gallery and valuable paintings to Fredericton, I series of buildings for the Univer- sity of New Brunswick. a library and park in Newcastle. a house and numerous paintings to Mount Alli- eon University. and many other gifts. He was continually revisiting the province. to meet old friends and make new contacts; and it gave him obvious pleasure when. on May 25. 1962. on his 83rd birthday, the province celebrated its first Lord Bearerhrook Day, instituted by un— animous decision of the legislature. Of all the Maritimers who left our shores for fame and fortune abroad. none clung more fondly to his early associations. or hold them in higher regard. In that sense. we can all claim him proudly as one of our own. say Under New Management All our citizens will wish success to the Island Development Company Limited in its purchase of the Char- lottetown Hotel from the Canadian National Railways. Since the rail- way is getting out. of this field of enterprise. due to changing railway conditions, it is likely that the hotel would have been sold in any case; and It is a matter of satisfaction that local interests have stepped in and will take over in November. Since the opening of The Chat- lottetown in 1930 it has proven an invaluable asset to the city and province. Older citizens will recall the difficulties we were under, fol- lowing the destruction of the old Victoria Hotel by fire, and the sym- pathetic attitude adopted by Sir Henry Thornton, then president of the CNR, toward our need for mod- ern hotel facilities. The Charlotte— town Board of Trade did a good job in pressing ourclaime In this con- nection, and we had an enthusiastic advocate at Ottawa in the person of Mr. Harold Jenkins, MP, who made this objective his chief con- , cern. . . The hotel me one of the biggest :‘eorietrucfion lohstobaundertnkm fill the province up to that time. Its Frank Walker t ‘mediately became the centre of so- cial activities on a wider and more pleasurable scale than we were ac- customed to previously. Sir Henry himself took great pride in it, and so did our citizens. It really put us on the map from the tourist slamL point. and it marked something of a milestone in our progress In other ways as well. We have. no doubt, as Premier Shaw says. that; the new manage- ment will seek to maintain the high standards for which the hotel has been noted, and will work in close L‘O—(Ipel‘zllltlll with resort owners on the Island. and with the government in its effort to develop convention business, tourism and other activit- ies of value to the province. Dr. Erhard's Visit The visit of Chancellor Ludwig Erhard of West Germany to Ottawa at this time is a matter of wide- spread interest. As indicated in a Canadian Press report, Dr. Erhard will have a series of talks with Prime Minister Pearson; at the same time. External Affairs Minis- ter Martin and German Foreign Min- ister Schroeder will resume conver- sations they began during a visit to Ronn by Mr. Martin last month. It is recalch that. Mr. Pearson, when external affairs minister, was among the first to suggest that Ger- many be taken into NATO as the best means to curl) any recurrence of (ierman nationalism and aggres- sion. For this and other reasons. It Is taken for granted that neither Mr. Pearson nor Mr. Martin will introduce such an awkward subject for Dr. Erhard as the recent call by his transport minister, Hans See- bohm. for return of the Czech Slide- tenland to Germany. There will be other matters to discuss, in a wide range of east—west relations. It is stated that the German embassy at Ottawa is particularly anxious that the visit go smoothly because it finds anti-German feel— ing more prevalent in Canada than in countries invaded by Hitler dur- ing the Second World War. We are surprised at this. We have seen no evidence of this feeling in news- paper comments across Canada, nor in the statements of our‘parliamen- tarians as reported in Hausard. In any case, there is no question as to the respect in which Chancellor Erhard is held, or of his right to a cordial reception in our federal capital. Dr. Erhard leaves for Washing- ton on Thursday, where we may ex- pect he will get the full red-carpet treatment. Could Be Quadrupled According to a London dispatch in the Financial Times of Canada, Britain is planning to buy its largest: amount of Canadian butter since the 1950's. Indications are that it will purchase between 10,000 and I2.t)t)tl tons within the next few months. This would be more than four times the amount bought last year. It Would also represent more than one-half of the extra butter which the. British govormncnt. plans to import from countries not cover- ed by the international quota agree- ment. The butter purchased will come out. of Canada’s butter surplus held‘ in storage from the 1960-61 season, and the transaction will be welcom- ed both by Ottawa and by our dairy producers generally. Apart. from the United States, from which Britain is expected to buy a much smaller amount, Canada is the only source which can provide the mild butter required for blending with European butter, considered some- what: strong for British tastes. The butter shortage threat in Britain results from the fact that both British and European butter production has been down in recent months due to higher beef prices and greater demands for dairy prod- ucts. Another example of the old adage that it's an ill wind that blows nobody any good. EDITORIAL NOTE A Nobel prize winner in Austra- lia, Sir John Eccles, says that the race for the moon is crazy, that the satellite is an awfully dull place with just dust, mountains and no climate. He overlooks the fact that neither the US. nor the Soviet Union cares much about the moon it- self; it‘s the race that seems to count. But what. could he crazier than spending billions of dollars on that? OVER IT AGAIN AND AGAIN THAT FILIBUSTER THREAT Our Horse-And-Buggy Parliament Bruce Hufchlson In The Winnipeg Free Press If the opposition had decided to filibuster the new Canadian flag it would have forced Par- liament to consider another Is- sue the issue of closure, cou- ccrniug which we have already endured floods of pious non- sense. One way or another Parlia- ment must do its business. In- cluding a decision on the flag. but undnr the present rules Itt- Ile h u s I n o s s is being done. Though the rules have been Im- proved somewhat of late, they are still obsolete because they delay essential decisions. So they will remain until Par- liament Is ready to limit debate by imposing closure where It is plainly required in the public in- forest. The British Parliament solv- ed this problem long ago by us- Ing closure as a natural. routine method of democracy. Before any important piece of legislav lion Ls debated the whips of the government and opprv sition agree that no many days, or hours. an no more, will be devoted to this subject. The Fig ht Goes On Globe and Mail. Toronto Canadians who hellave that. there is no justification for re« teution of the death penalty In the Criminal Code will be heart. ened by the announcement from Mr. Arthur Maloney that he has ormed a new national body to work for its abolition. Mr. )laloney was an able and _ articulate member of the House : of Commons for Toronto-Perle dale from 1957 until his defeat In 1962. A dedicated opponent to capital punishment, he frequent- ly s p o k e in the Commons in favor of bringing Canada into line with many nations that have discarded the death pen ally. - Two of Mr. Maloney's chteh lieutenants In the new organiz- ation will be Mr. Frank McGee. former Progressive Conserva- tive member for York-Scarboro and Mr. Reid Scott. NDP mem- ber for Toronto-Danforth. Mr. McGee introduced a bill in 1961 to abolish the death penalty and Parliament’s r e a c t i o n was mostly favorable. He withdrew the bill w II e n the Government Indicated that It proposed to change the Criminal Code. Sub- sequently, the Government amended the legislation by de- fining murder as capital. which carries with It the death sen- tence, and non-capital. for which the maximum punishment ts life imprisonment. Mr. Scott's bill suffered the fate of being talked out In the Commons last. March, which automatically sent it to the bottom of the list and out of the running for this session at least. Despite these parliamentary setbacks, encouraging progress has been made in marshalling public opinim behind the move to abolish the death penalty. M n c h of the credit for the. change In climate goes to these three men. The fact that Mr. Maloney and Mr. McGee no longer sit 1n Parliament does not limit their effectiveness as leaders of a national grass-roots movement which aims to remove from the statute books what has been cor- rectly described as society'; fi- nal revenge against the trans- gressor. 0n the contrary, the) will have wider scope for a na- tional campaign than member" ship In the Commons affords. PUBLIC FORUM TOLERANCE EMPHASIZED Sin—Through your column I. should like to correct an erron- eous impression which might be taken from the report of the Graduation Exercises at Kin- kora Regional High School which appeared In Saturday's Guardian. The report states: "Judge C. St. Clair 'l‘rainor ad- dressed the graduatcs. warning of the dangers facing all peo- plc today who live in a plural- Istic society." M only refer- ence to "a pluralistic society" a my closing remarks where, following a usual prac- tice. I urged my hearers to give leadership in the cause of to]- erance. The following Is from my prepared text: "I want to conclude with a few remarks on the virtue of tolerarce which has been so sadly neglected. We live in a pluralistic society and we may have sprung from different eth- nIc groups. We h d di teen! views in 'tics and In other matters and, following the die- tates of our conscience, we wor- ship God in different manners. To the scandal of the Pagan world we emphasize our diff- erences to a point where we would destroy each other. But, Is it not time that we should look upon others in a true spit- it of charity? Is it not time for all of us who profess to ba Christians. nay for all men who profess to believe In a God, to stand together against our com. mon enemy of Communism? “Surely. we must realize that the alternative Is to be engulf- ed in a cauldron of political and religious tyranny. speak of tolerance I do not mean approval or acceptance, for no man, In conscience. may sacrifice convictions to the wel- fare of his net . "But I do mean that In all our dealings with our fdlow lava: H H Macao: creed. we should work together In the dung. that we hold In common and In those matters wherein we differ we should, while following the dictates ofj our own conslcence. recognize and respect the conscience of tillers. When we learn to do this, we diatll than Christians In name. We shall bear the distinguishing badge which marked the Chris- tians of old: “See how the Christllms love one another.‘ "What a wonderful world thIs would be If men were to under- stand fully and to practice the virtue of tolerance! That we older have failed Ia plain to be seen, but I throw the chaflenge to you, my dear graduates, that as you take your place In this troubled world. you give a bold and true leadership to all men In the practice of Menace."

But many of us do not agree with the modern method used. Yes. you businessmen; tell us about your goods, the price etc. but, do apare us the annoyance of driving It Into our ears by a singing female, or by a male either. Buslnesa firms may not realise It. but they are losing customers Instead of attracting them to thelr atone. One man said to me recently I will not patmnlaa the firm that uses fine dining method to ad- vertise their goods. Many turn their radios and television sets off when the sinqu begins.

In .— That method Is closure. what- ever It may be called. and, if the opposition tried to break the timetable, actual closure would be automatically Imposed by At Westminster two or three days are usually regarded as ample to argue and decide any question. At Ottawa, often on a peripheral subject, a debate may continue for weeks or months while vital business Is paralyzed. Britain. wroneg supposed to be oldltashioned and bumbling, has the most efficient Parlia- ment In the world. Canada which boasts of being a y o ung. daring and experimental na- tion. has yet to move its Parlia- ment out of the horse-and-bug- gy era.

The St. pipeline scheme. now 3 proved success. and to get it started by a certain date. was no need for closure, con- struction of the pipeline did not start on schedule and mean- while the government commit.- ted sulclde. t This repulsive spectacle did not prove that closure was nec- essarily an evil, only that It was imposed at the wrong time, in the wrong way for the wrong purpose. To say that closure ll.- self must always be wrong be- cause It was once misused is like saying that surgery must. never be attempted because is sometimes kills the patient. DIDN’T NEED CLOSURE Nevertheless, after the pipe line episode. Canada elected a Conservative government per- manently pledged against the use of closure. The Diefenbaker government didn‘t need closure In any case since the opposition — until after the indecisive ele- ction of 1962 anyway — did not try to blockade public business. Besides, the government could never make up its mind on bus- Ic issues and withered away from perpetual Indecision, thus , I . Chicago, Illinois.) putting a closure on everything, Including Itself.

The real danger Is that Parliament will prevent. government from gov- erning, Itself from leglslating. the parliamentary system from functioning.

Caribbean Madness Merit-tan Gleaner Rumours of an Imminent in- vasion of Cuba by anti-Castro forces have been buzzing around the Caribbean for several weeks. They are particularly prevalent In Florida, where there is a concentration of Cu- ban refugees of various political stripes, united only in their op- position to the bearded dictator of their native island. In fact, these people claim a successful hit-and-run raid has already been made, with moreto come. The extend to which an inva- sion is being planned, organiz- ed and financed In the United States Is a moot point. B ut there seems to be many sourc- es In the US who know all about it. In this movement there Is a monstnous danger to the peace of the Western Hemisphere. perhaps of the world. To upset the Caribbean status quo. ach- Ieved after the crisis of October 1962, could bring about a rever- sal of the trend towards a more peaceful conduct of world af- fairs that began at that time and has run strongly ever since. For Castro is not going to be overthrown. unless the United States directly launches Its weight into the undertaking. A tempts by the Cuban exrles themselves would result either in an Immediate fiasco. or long bloody confllct. convulsing the Caribbean. On the other hand. If the Unit- ed States did enter the muffin directly. it could provoke vio- lent reaction from Russia. There Is every indication that Castro is stronger than ever in Cuba, that invading forces can count on no serious assistance from within the island. Even if Castro were over- ‘ thrown would the end result be worth the effort? Who particu- larly wants another Cuban re- gime like the malodorous ones of Batista or Machado‘.’ President Johnson, although he shows something less than complete capability In foreign affairs. is not so unwise as to have promised all-out American support to an invasion of Cuba. He still has before him the ex- ample of the abortice Bay of Pigs attempt In 1961. wk 1 c II came to close to milling Ina start of his brilliant predece; sor's administration.
