Channel Tunnel Targeted Will they get the British Chan- nel tunnel underway before Ottawa decides what to do about our North- umberland Strait causeway? That didn’t seem likely two years ago, but the question is more pertinent today. The building of a. tunnel link- ing England’s south coast to France is now a “certainty,” British Min- ister of Transport Ernest Marples has announced. Construction work, he said, would probably start in 1966. If all went well the great pro- ject would be completed in 1974. iWith Marc Jacquet, French Min- ister of Transport, Mr. Marples sailed from Dover in a French sur- vey ship the other day, to examine boreholes being drilled in the sea- bed to determine the tunnel’s route. This is part of a $4,200,000 pre- liminary geological work being car. ried out by the Channel Tunnel Study Group on behalf of the Bri- tish and French governments. What- ever the geological survey uncovers, experts know enough already to be sure of the project's feasibility. ‘ The preliminary work will take at year to complete and is a tremen- dous undertaking in itself. It will supply data which must be ana- lyzed to decide whether the tun- nel should be bored under the sur- face or immersed in a trench in the seabed. Design details will then be decided on, tenders sought, and con- tractors appointed. Thus it will be a “private enter- prise” job, launched by the public calling of tenders. Which reminds us that in the House of Commons this week Mr. Heath Macquarrie asked when the government intends issuing a progress report on our causeway project in the light of the proposal made by agents of the Is- land Development Company Limit- ed; also whether any other private companies have expressed an in- terest in tendering. and if so, what has been the government’s reply. These questions were placed by the junior member for Queens on the order paper. Answers should be forthcoming shortly. Certainly there seems no reason why the Canadian government should not be as frank in giving out information of this kind as the Brit- ish government is in discussing the progress of the scheme on which it is embarking jointly with the gov- ernment of another country. If any- thing, one would expect greater Eomplications there in the way of issuing news releases. Farmer's World Surveyed Technological advances in agri- culture now provide the world with tools to free itself from hunger, but there is no assurance that these tools will be utilized sufficiently to prevent famine. This is the warning nob'sounded by the U.S. Agricul- i ‘ tare Department in the 1964 edition of its annual yearbook entitled Faro mer’s World. It quotes many farm specialists as predicting that during the next several decades, world population will expand at a greater rate than increases in food produc- tion. ( The yearbook a e es a longer period of hunger particularly for the underdeveloped countries. The devel- countries, such as United p.8t‘stes, Canada, most of Europe. m. Australia, and New Zealsnd ' expected to continue to enjoy ‘ a me. . many of the less fortunate ' es, it should be possible to upfirates of increase in food ' sto3.5percenta but that will be short of the annual moi-ease of 4 to 5 per cent required to meet rising demands due to growth in popula- tion and income. One expert points out that even when benefits from improved farming methods are provided through land and market- ing reforms, the means of carrying out the new farm program may be lacking. Another warns that in many countries failure to give high prior- ity to agricultural needs—in the way of credit, education, machinery, fertilizers, and the like—may also contribute to the famine danger. In a forward to this important volume, U.S. Agriculture Secretary Orville L. Freeman says that “at no time in 30 centuries has world agriculture faced greater problems, greater challenges, and greater op- portunities.” One thing that impresses us in these findings is the overriding im- portance, in a country such as Can- ada, of maintaining agricultural activities on thevhighest level of ef- ficiency. Especially does this apply to food processing for shipments abroad. This phase of the industry is still in its early stages. We in Prince Edward Island have a tre- mendous stake in its future, and it is encouraging to note the evidence of planned expansion that is going on at the present time in this regard. Verbal Blockbuster “A plague on both your houses I” said the fellow in Shakespeare. That seems to be the way the Very Rev. Francis B. Sayre, Jr., dean of Wash- ington Cathedral and one of the most influential Episcopalian clergymen in the nation’s capital, feels about the two top candidates now running for Presidential office. From the pulpit last Sunday he excoriated the American people for nominating them—without mentioning either of them by name. It was quite a blast, delivered with all the elo- quence of a Tertullian. “This summer,” said the dean, “we beheld a pair of gatherings at the summit of political power, each of which was completely dominated by a single man; the one a man of dangerous ignorance and devestat- ing uncertainty, the other a man whose public house is splendid in its every appearance but whose pri— vate lack of ethic must inevitany introduce termites at the very foundation. ' “The electorate of this mighty nation is left homeless, then, by such a pair of nominees. It knows not where to turn, it stares fascin- ated at the forces that have pro- duced such a. sterile choice—frus- tration and a federation of hostil- ites in the one party; and, in the other, behind a goodly facade, only a cynical manipulation of power. .." President Johnson, says the news report, was not present in the congregation although he has at- tended services at the cathedral in the past. Perhaps he got wind of what was coming. At any rate, the preacher didn’t stop with the can- didates but went on to say that it was the nation at large that was really at fault. Its leaders. he said, "only reflect what they so cannin perceive to be the preoccupation of every single one of us . . . Few eyes are lifted up in this nation to a nobler purpose than selfish gain." Dean Sayre is described as a grandson of President Woodrow Wilson. born in the White House, who has been "perhaps the most prominent cleric Involved in Wash- ington Democratic politics." He made it clear that he isn’t on the bandwagon of either of the major parties in this campaign. EDITORIAL NOTES We shall not get that visit of the Commons committee on agricul- ture until next spring now. An- nouncement that the tour has been postponed was made in the House on Wednesday by Agriculture Min- ister Hays. O t C a n a d a’ a National Immuniza- tion Week will be observed during the coming week, and should serve as a reminder—not so much of the progress we have made in preven- tive health measures, as of the need for maintaining and intensifying them. The prevention of such diseases as smallpox, diphtheria and polio. for example. involves a constant battle, depending not only on the existence of specific preven- tivee but on the universal and per- sistent education of the whole popu- lation of the country, l “clam 01790 $53 com-mus recurs _. say-9 wot. MAETm. [N Tb KVO --—w.~ THE GREAT WALL OF CHINA RUSSIA FEELS OUTRAGED Communist Chasm Widens Perceptiny Milwaukee Journal The Soviet Union is in full , terest they are at each other's voiced outrage over maps pro- duced by Communist C h in a showing parts of what now is the Soviet Union to be part of China itself. This is no new thing. of course, China. even under Chiang Kal- s‘iek. has long felt that it should regain title to large areas which the Soviet Union has taken over. But as Communist China's population grows —- It could have a billion people by the end of the century — its need for land grows and it is natural it should, in the words of President de Gaulle of France. be “casting her eyes about her on the open spaces over which she must one day spread." The C‘u'nese not only claim that Russia is holding land that belongs to China. In July, Mao Tse~tung was asked by a visiting apanese delegation whether there might be hope of regaining from Russia the north Pacific islands seized from Japan at the end of World War II. MAO'S CHALLENGE Mao pointed out that “the places occupied by the Soviet Union are too numerous." e said that the Russians had tak- e nd from Rumania. Czecho- Slovakia, Finland, Germany and Poland. He seemed to be invit- ing them all to take action to re- store their lands and to be im- plying um Russia's boundaries will one day be changed. So in addition to the fierce ideological struggle in which China and the Soviet Union are engaged. the y are in a nation- alistic war, too. And that may in the and prove most bitter of all. ' Reports from Bonn have it that Premier Khrus‘ichev's com- ing visit these may have in part the aim of getting military re- assurances which may let him move more troops from eastern Europe and East Germany to his borders with China. Already Russian military concentrations facing China have up. Border clashes are frequent. SEEMS IRREVOCABLE The split between Russia and china now seems irrevocable. Ideologically and in national in- : throats. What world peace in the end is not clear. If it occupies Khrushchev and the Kremlin enough to make them step up recent bids for ac- commodation with the west it will be at least a short term gain. But if war should come it could threaten the entire world. A China battling Russia would have to seek food and supplies in southeast Asia. That would in- volve m a n y another nation—- this means for‘ and could bring world war. The two nations even now are push- ing hard in Asia. Latin America and. most especially. Africa, to win supporters for their oppos- ing Communist philosophies. So they endanger the world and in- volve it in their differences. The west can take a measure of pleasure from the chaos the Communist world — chaos sometimes has a way of spreading. Our guards must be kept alert. in but A Spectacular Deal London Free Press Premier Bennett of British Columbia may have been frus-l trafed in his attempt to start a l new chartered bank under pro— 1‘ vincial aegis. But he has scored l a spectacular break-through in- ' to he large-scale financial loan field. Premier Lesage. who is currently short of cash to meet ; the ambitious expansion plans' of the Quebec government. has announced that Quebec is bor- rowing $100.000.000 from th government of British Columbia. There is no indication of terms, but Mr. Lesage describes the agreement as mutually ad- vantageous. It is also unprece- dented. Provinces don't often have that much spare cash to play around with. The circumstances are unus-J us]. On September 16 British‘ Columbia sta rt 5 receiving its 0 first instalment of Columbia RI- 1: Quebe ver Treaty money from the U.S. 1 Quebec had previously bor- l i mourners rowed $194,000,000 this year and hopes to bring the total to $350,- 000,000. Difficulties loom ahead in making use of the New York market, to which Quebec has traditionally resorted because of new U.S. legislation which may clamp down on Canadian is- sues. It appears that the deal Is a most imaginative one, helping both provinces and providing money needed by Quebec with- out. going outside Canada. though ironically the money will actual- I 1y be coming from the U.S. In view of Mr. Bennett’s unusual fi- nancing in he past some may suspect a gimmick somewhere.

Each bears on Cuba. ty of the 11 members of the Organization of American Stat — Mexico excluded—now have cut diplomatic ties with Fidel Castro's island. Most have also severed economic dealings. But perhaps more Important in the long run. in U.S. pro- gram 'to isolate Cuba, is the recent defeat of the far left in Chile“: presidential election. The main value of severing diplomatic ties, officials say. is he removal of Cuban diplo- matic beachheads In Latin American countries which serve as bases for subversion. This also, coupled with eco- nomic blockades, is felt to in- crease the pressure of isolation on Cuba within the hemisphere. although the volume of trade between Latin America and Cuba has been small anyway, any state department figures. These ‘ahow for the first nine months of 1968 Cuban exports worth some $5,000,000 and im- ports of about $3,000,000. ISSUE RAISED AGAIN State department officials In- dicated Wednesday that State Secretary Rusk has recently raised again with various coun- tries the U.S. desire to curb trade with Cuba. Both France and Britain have had m‘mbstandal deals with Cuba recently. Canadian and U.S. sources, questioned about Canada's role in these talks, say it would be way twice recently —- although only among a number of other subjects. There has been less public en- thusiasm in the U.S. about the anti - Cuban success than might have been ted. But part of this at least is attributed to the fact that in the Nov. 3 election campaign the Democratic ad- ministration is not attempting to play up foreign policy since there are too many other areas where trouble may break out. Republican presidential candl- date Barry oldwater on the other hand has not had the ammunition to make much play with Cu a, of: :- than to sug gest that the 1962 Cuban missile crisis Was manipulated by the late president Kennedy for polit- ical gain. There has been little public condemnation of Mexico visible in Washington for its independ- , an e at all in public or private from govern- ment sources. Similarly; there has been lit.— tle comment recently about the fact that Canada still recognizes Cuba and engages in non-stra- tegic trade with her.
