The purpose of the resolution is make clear that in the view of the Associa- tion of Canadian Clubs, funds spent on so- callcd "technical assistance" are a waste of money unless governments and people alike in the under-developed countries understand and adopt those standards of geconomic conduct upon which the high llvlng stand- ards of the donor countries rest.

Mr. Eden at least hopes to get his persuasive force from the Colombo Pow- ers and is at least doggedly working in that direction. Mr. Dulles doubts whether there is time for this, but he does not say where the military force is, in fact, to come from. Even Mr. Eden has never suggested that there is much military force to come from ' 4 - 5 Something To Shoot At .Ae. The Passing Scene ous enemy.

In court the presiding magistrate is quoted as having said, "It's too bad somebody your own size didn't take a swipe at you and knock your bad temper out of you." One cannot blame the magistrate too much for expres- s'ng his indignation. But. of course, the magistrate was talking out of turn.

He was a soldierand diplomat and while en- voy to the Porte gathered the famous col- lection known as the "Eigin Marbles." They are portions of the frieze of the Parthenon and other buildings, medals and inscriptions, containing specimens of all the variations of the Greek alphabet. But for his action they would probably have been destroyed by the Turks who were using the Parthenon for target practice. Salvage costs alone, after a shipwreck, came , to 374,000 but the earl turned the marbles over to the British Museum for 135,000. His son was Governor General of what was then Canada and s grandson was born in Montreal. , T :d'I1t.IOIt'0(l. we have a hllildlng M fund. an hniiac not inlidc with, ll-'IlIdH. etc-rnnl in the lic.-in-in . . .l Therefore we lirl' alirnyn confl-l cliecrflilly undertook to prcparc luncli (tin of soup. cliccsc mid iri- iuce sandwiclicsl.i'ol' hc.':3lf and younger brother, I-latlicr yrirciircrl broad, etc., and left for the nfiicc with mixed feelings of pride at his sprout's efficiency and sorrow at the rate his little girl was ap- proaching wonianhond.
