The minister esti- mated that there would be some 35 or 40 changes in the present agree~ merits, although it is not known yet whether the law itself will have to be amended. He made the announcement dur- ing the course of a day-long press briefing on progress to date in the ARDA pilot region of the lower St. Lawrence and Gaspe. The brief- ing. which was conducted by officers of the Eastern Quebec Development Planning Office, was attended by Quebec Agriculture Minister Alcide Courcy as well. The latter had called for an ex~ tension of the ARDA program to cover a wider range of projects than at present, and had suggested that the new agreements—replacing the existing ones which expire March 31, 1965—should provide for Govern- ment expenditures on such projects as tourist centres, camping grounds, beaches, research into land use, etc. The ARDA programs, he maintained, have been going through a “transi- tion period" up to now, and the time has come to revise them. Mr. Sauve said he had been meet- ing with representatives of all prov- inces to determine what changes in the program they would like to see, as a prelude to the upc0ming confer- ence. The federal proposals for a new agreement. he added. will be sent to the provinces “within a few weeks" in order to allow time to study them before the meeting. The federal minister also stress- ed that Ottawa intends to leave all administration of the ARDA pro- gram completely to the provinces. and will not intervene at any time. The Federal Government reserves the right to final say on the accept- ability of any project. however. Flowers Of London it is to be hoped that the Com- monwealth leaders, in conference in London, will take time off to enjoy the great city's Arts Festival, now in progress, and also its Festival of Flowers, which is really something worth seeing. With the Lord Mayor of London as its patron, the Festival of Flowers is being promoted by the Worshipful Company of Gardeners. one of the city’s ancient guilds of craftsmen, whose Master, Lord Nathan—he is also chairman of the festival—has called for "a blaze of color in every street and ally." For 13 days in July this festival will be in full swing. Many thou- sands of blooms are on display, pro- viding a tribute of flowers for some of Europe’s most celebrated build- ings— St. Pa ul’e Cathedral, the Bank of England. the Mansion House (home of the Lord Mayor), the 15th century Guildhall and the Tower of London. the great fortress of William the Conqueror begun on the north bank of the Thames nearly 900 yeare ago. There are striking displays, too. at many of the city churches such ae St. Andrew’s, Hol- born, and St. Peter's, Comhill, both of Which were designed by Sir Christopher Wrcnn, the architect of St. Paul's. . ‘lhere is a special reason why the eitilene of Britain's capital should cooperate Maharteay with the _ Company of Garden” -__._Vfi 4 in a festival of this kind. A British Services release recalls that in 1945 London was a drab place indeed. Many of its buildings had been hornb- ed, leaving gaping holes in the sky- line. All that is changed now. but people remember that it was the bomb sites which provided an occas- inal touch of color in the war-torn city. They provided also a clue to the way in which its appearance could be improved. For seed-s, blown by the wind or dropped by the birds. took root and blossomed amid the rubble. Cherry. apple and pear trees pushed their way through the brok- en masonry. and small orchards grew from pips and stones thrown from the lunch bags of clerks and typists. Today’s Festival of Flowers re- calls the heartbreak of those years. and the hunger for beauty amid des- olation. which the wayward touches of nature helped to appease. Castro's Olive-Branch Cuban Premier Fidel Castro has extended an olive-branch. of sorts, to the United States, which it is to hoped will not be thrown aside too contemptuously. In an interview with a New York Times correspondent he suggested a resumption of talks be- tween the two governments, with Washington taking the initiative—- for he holds Washington to blame for the present state of relations. However, he said Cuba is prepared to take certain steps immediately in an effort to ease existing tensions. He would pull back his Cuban guards around th :9 Guantanamo Naval Base at a distance of several hundred yards, as "a contribution on our part to avoid incidents.” Cuba would cease immediately its material support of Latin-American revolu- tionaries if the US. and its allies would agree to withhold support of Cuban exile activity against the is- land. He would also release as many as 90 per cent of the political prison- ers now held by his government. During the interview Castro said the US. would do much better to purchase Cuban sugar than to try to expand its sugar-beet industry. Likewise, he said, there were many things that Cuba needed to pur- chase from the United States. Cuban sugar has been selling at low prices to Communist-bloc na-‘ tions since the United States out off its massive purchases. Another rea- son for Castro’s interest in a rap- prochement may lie in the fact that an Organization of American States meeting at. Wasington is in the offing. called to take action on Venezuela's charges of Cuban agression. In any case, it Is regarded as possible that the Castro overture will provide a platform for a greater exploration of Washington‘s attitude towards Cuba than has been possible up to now. This would be all to the good. As Arkansas Senator Ful- bright said in a memorable state- ment last March: “We must learn to explore all the options and possibilities that con front us in a complex and rapidly changing world. . . We must learn to welcome rather than fear the voices of dis- sent and not to recoil in horror when- ever some heretic suggests that. Castro may survive. . ." EDITORIAL NOTES Members of the House of Com- mons spent two hours debating whether they should add five and a half hours to their work week to handle unfinished business. That, comments an exchange, explains in part why they need more time to complete their work. 0 O O O x The "frightening prospect of is continuous urban unit” stretching from Manchester, in the north of England, to Milan, in northern Italy. was envisaged by a delegate to a conference on regional planning in urban development in Western Europe.

Ii‘ Preparation For Leisure By Dr. Theodore It. Van .Delleii Our world is accelerating so rapidly. it seems to have no place for the subject-of leisure; But we midst as well ace the ins. maintaining their creative abil- ity because of better health. What will they do when their productive days are over? Dr. Alexander Beld Martin believes we should concentrate , less on the underprivileged. ex- 1 plotted. overworked. and the : poverty stricken and turn our I attention to the leisure stricken. This means preparation for let- sure. He subscribes to the phi]: osophy that “only those fit for work and leisure survive as creative individuals. The othen will exist as. sterile robots. alien- ated from life and from them- selves. living vicariously. and so deadeued Hint they compul- sively seek overstimulation from the extreme. the lurid. the bi- zarre. and the macabre." The man'of the future may be forced to put his capacity for leisure on the same level as his capacity for work. This is diffi- cult to accept because most of us have grown up with the con- cept that leisure is earned through hard work— a reward for a job well done. ‘ In addition we consider time for leisure and leisure as the same thing. They are as differ- , ent as merely existing and real- ly living. 0n the other hand. should complement leisure and those who have the capacity for both are fortunate. A hobby shOuld not be a sub. stitute for work: it keeps the in- : dividual and his mind busy be. a cause he cannot stand to be alone or does not know how to enioy his free time.
