Walter. could you no quaff the cup in one gulp in- stead of making two swallows of it. when you toasted the Queen at the grand state dinner Wednesday night.” grumbled Father William to himself as he relapsed into the broad tongue after the excitement of following every detail of the Royal visit here in the press and on television. and imaginatively re- constructing every incident to fix them in his memory. “Is it Walter the Premier you're talking about in that way?" asked his bright young offspring in sur- prise. “I thought he did remarkably well, and you should be praising in- stead of criticising him." “He did magnificently, up till then." conceded the old gentleman, “and by the way Her Majesty smil- ed at him so often I‘m sure she thought so herself. But this was a terrible break and an insult to good Scotch whisky and an out- rage to Scottish tradition. which decrees that the draught in the quaich be downed at one loyal gulp when the Sm'ereign is being toasted in the language of the Garden of Eden. “That whippersnapper of 3 Pipe Maj or from Petawawa did it when he took his draught as a token payment for piping the royal party in.“ continued Father William dour- ly. "‘Slainte do ur ceann-cinnidh, bhan-righ ealasaid.‘ he said, and down it went. Which being interpret.- ed means 'Good health to our chief. Queen Elizabeth.’ Walter followed suit with a braw ‘Slainte mhath.‘ but his breath failed him in quaff— ing the cup and he had to pause in the middle of it. What would his ancestors say to that!" “This is a province with strong temperance leanings," said the young man primly. “We don’t. go in for that. kind of thing here. Maybe Walter paused out of re- spect for our feelings against those who make Wine-bibbers of them. selves." “This wasn't Wine. it was the heather dew." snorted his angry sire. “Be off with you. and let me brood over this disgrace by my- self . . ." An hour later: “Oh well. it's maybe a small matter to the Sassenachs who will be writing about it in the papers. They wouldn't. know the difference. anyway. And it’s time for my own wee glass. and then to bed. But. I do wish that Walter would get in touch with me when Her Majesty comes again. so that I could coach him on how to handle a quaich. and drain it without turning a hair!” Unveiled Monuments Before the Senate adjourned for a four-week rest in mid-September, the indefatigable Senator Jean- Francois Pouliot put before his colleagues a proposal “with regard,” he said, "to something that will sur- prise you.” This was in connection with the fact that of all the array of statuary and monuments scatter- ed around Parliament Hill, four have never been officially unveil- ed. There they have stood for years. without receiving official recognition. This was like a ship being launched without being whacked first with a bottle of champagne. The four. monuments are those of Baldwin and Lafontaine. Alexan- der Mackenzie, George Brown and Thomas D'Arcy McGee. It is Sen-g star Puliot’s idea that when the On visits Ottawa on this oc- ufi she should unveil the Bold- J. elsewhere outside British Corn- : FRIDAY. OCTOBER a. 136i. . win-ufontaine monument. He would have lesser luminaries para form the honors on the other three. “The Queen,” comment: the Winnipeg Free Press drily, “will likely have enough to do in Ot- awa without further ceremonies on the Hill. But certainly the propos- al should not be allowed to pass unheeded. Four un-unv‘eiled statues should lend themselves to an even- ing of fun and festivity which. if handled properly, could go far to patch up Confederation. “Let the evening on which Par- liament recesses be given over to unveiling the statues. with one and all invited. Agriculture Minister Harry Hays could supervise the roasting of a few oxen on the lawns: there could be folk. singing and dancing, and bicultural entertain- ment from Hull. Inasmuch as there are only four statues. the honor of unveiling them could be given to the four leaders of opposition groups, with the Prime Minister re- maining modestly in the back- ground. “Each could choose the flag he wished to haul off the monument— Union Jack, Red Ensign, one maple leaf. three maple leaves. the flour- de-iys or any other design. And if Mr. Caouette wished to unveil only the Lafontaine part of the Bald- win-Lafontaine monument. the Prime Minister could perhaps be pressed into service to uphold the English-speaking part of Confed- eration. Given proper attention and planning it could be as festive an occasion as Ottawa has seen since VE night." This is all very well. but it leaves unanswered the question of why some monuments on Parliament Hill should have been officially unveil- ed and others not. Was it through negligence, political interference, or what? Senator Pouliot should get to the bottom of the mystery. about which we confess to having some curiosity ourselves. Foul Oi The Law A fanciful program has had to be banned by the British Broadcast- ing Corporation because it fell foul of the law banning political jokes on TV and radio for the election per- iod. it was rather a pity, because the voters would have gotten a good laugh out of it. In this program. the British House. of Commons was to be sunk beneath the Thames by the guns of a Chinese junk captained by Dr. Fu Manchu. This fictional character was supposed to be retaliating for alleged government unfriendly ac- tion against the Chinese commun- ity in London’s Limehouse area. It was intended to be all very realistic. The producer had found a genuine Chinese junk and with the permission of the Port of London Authority had filmed the scenes of the junk sailing up and down the river outside the Houses of Parlia- ment and firing off blank cannon shells. By some trick of photography the whole of that famous mile of build- ings in Westminster was eventually seen sinking in the Thames to the delight of Dr. Fu Manchu. But the BBC said. “No, not at an election time." This caused the producer to lament: “It all seems rather silly, because we don't sink the Govern- ment or the Labor Party. but the whole of Parliament. Surely that shows complete impartiality." But. says a London correspondent. the BBC knows only too well that there are tortuous minds at work at election time thinking up all sorts of embarrassments. So Dr. Fu Manchu's sinking of the Houses of Parliament has had to be postpon- ed untii after October 15 which. when all is said and done. is not an unduly long time for viewers to have to wait!

The statement was that Conn Murphy had not come within a few feet of the Queen as I said in my story to the Evening Stan- dard, London, a fact which was confirmed by two other journal- ists who saw him. namely Mr. J.J. Richards of CHUM news and Mr. John Miller of Reuters. The photographers on being questioned agreed that they had not seen Murphy at all after they had started work at the base and were therefore not in a position to say where he was, or wasn't. While I do not wish to create further unhappiness in this mat- ter. most particularly for Mr. Murphy. I do with to make time points. First that it was not my intention to write a big s c a re -p rde of my story was that you can have excellent security but that still sonseosa who is known to everyone can get: through BECAUSE ha is known. which E the case with Conn Murphy—and Jack Ruby. that I showed the at to Inspector 0.

No one, real l y - knows whether the Conservativ- : ‘ es are still in favor of British ant subject. the silence of t e grave has settled over Britain's election campaign— British pol- icy towards the European Com- mon Market. Three years ago the Conser- vative government. led by Prime Minister Macmillan. was extolling British entry into the Common Market as the answer to the country‘s economic prob- lems. If Britain stayed out. the future would be gray; if she joined. the clouds would lift. At the same time. the Labor Party was opposing entry into the Common Market. It was taking up a nationalistic stand. StI‘CSSlIIV the dangers a mig'l arise thmugh a loss of Brit sh sovereignty. and th sense of betrayal that would be ‘. felt by the Commonwealth.

Van belles Tularemla is on the increase and the cumulative total for 1964 is greater than in previous years. Cases were reported to the public health service from all but the New England. mld~ die Atlantic. and Pacific regions although the disease has been found in all parts of the coun- try. Tularemia is acquired most frequently while skinning or but- chering game animals, and oc- casionally in dressing gs me birds. It was called rabbit fevrr for years because hunting cottontail was a popular sport and the isorder was acquired from infected rabbit carcasses. We wonder why tularemls is not more common. Every year millions of minute brown eggs are laid by female ticks in the debris of the forest. They hatch and attach themselves to rab- bits. squirrels. woodchucks. go- phers. or any other mammal they can find. The ticks become engorged with blood and ultim- ately drop off. If the female happens to feed on contaminated blood. all OI her eggs will be infected and the offspring will pass along the micro-organisms lo the wood- land animals. Deer flies. lice. mosquitoes. and fleas also trans- mil the bacilli. The majority of human vic- tims develop the condition from the infected meat rather than ' insect bites. Gloves ould be worn when skinning or cutting birds and animals that may be infected Cooking kills the micro-organisms. Human tularemia occurs in several forms. In 60 per cent. an ulcer arises at the site of en. lry— usually the fingers or hands. The glands in the arm- pit swell, and a few days later chills, fever. sweats. malaise. and headache occur. Others manifest symptoms resembling typhoid, mononucleosis. or leu- kemia. Occasionally tularemia is limited to the eye's.

A Comforting Ally By Arch Mack Canadia- Prua sun Writer It is not usual for the head of a foreign state to visit Washing- ton officially in the midst of a presidential election campaign. But resident Dlosdado Macapagal is not a routine caller—either normally or right now an the U.S. can use all the friends it can get in South- east Asia. President Johnson bit into his campaign time to make the visitor feel at home. In return President Macapagal said a number of things which the US. likes to hear from its allies and doesn't always get. Macapagal joined in calling China an "imminent threat" to the peace of Southeast Asia. Perhaps more important. he indicated the Philippines may step up its aid in South Viet Nam. something the US. has been striving to encourage from Europe and Canada CONCERN EXPRESSED Macapsgal, joining Johnson. in the usual communique. ex- pressed concern that “should South Viet Nam fall to commu- nism other Southeast Asian cauntrics on the mainland. in cluding Malaysia. will In no, f llow." time 0 He also had some blunt Words about Indonesia's limping but persistent attack on Malaysia and suggested failure to re- solve the dispute may push In- donesia definitely into Commu- nist ranks. He also praised US. retalia- tion in the Gulf of Tonkin against North Viet Nam and it is reported privately he recom- mended U.S. attacks on North Viet Nam supply lines. Carrying such ideas. it ll doubtful that President Macs- pagal will get much farther than he has as a would-be ne- gotiator in the Malaysia-Indo- nesia dispute. But in mm of political stability and resources he is a comforting ally from the US. point of view. Not all is sweetness and light. however. Philippine citizens are reported to be increasingly con- cerned about the extent of for- eign ownership in their econ- omy, Chinese and otherwise. This applies to American own- ership and the matter was among the subjects discussed. Gone But Not Forgotten Hamilton Spectator THE GAME of Canada versus Hal B a n k s is evidently over. l with Banks the winner by a nose. l The deposed head of the Sea-l farers' International Union of Canada has successfully eva- ded Canadian justice and is now ensconced somewhere lot the United States. There are some faithful de- fenders of official Ottawa who will say Banks was not the vic- tor. They will point out that he lost his Canadian job as a result of the actions against him. They will add that he forfeited $26,- 000 in ball, that he was forced to give up 3 320.000 job with the American SIU. first he in fact lost a career. Much of what they will say is . true. Banks did lose much in the material sense. And while it is doubtful that he lost a career (he will get a slnecure some- wherel. he certainly did lose much in the way of power and prestige. Yet from the standpoint of a; Victory and the wonderful feel- i ing that should go with it. Cian- ada comes off second best. At least the burly Banks can sml.'k - in he knowledge that he isn‘t serving a term in a Canadian jail. In the battle for justice waged by a proud sovere\s n nation against him, .he won the right to smirk. . v i That we are finally rid of " Banks is enough reason for rejoicing. No amount of name calling could do an injustice to such a man nor to what he stands for. Yet the rejoicing must of necessity be restrained. How can it be full - bodie when somewhere along the line this country failed to supply a convicted Banks with the same sort of close scrutiny it gives common vagrants. LABEL WARNING SOUGHT BRASILIA (APl—Deputy Pe- dro Marao has introduced a bill to the Brazilian parliament that ‘t would require Brazilian cigar. _'_ ette makers to label each pack: “Cigarettes Give Cancer." l l l One reason might be the. un- reality of the issue at this time. As long as President de Gaulle is in power. British membership . in the Common Market will be . an academic question. The real reason for the silence is probably a tactical one. Bri- tish membership in the Com mon Market is an issue th at split the country. And no party wants to use such an issue at election time. since it is impos- sible to tell whom it might be- nefit. Both parties would face opposition from parts of the el- ectorate which they normally look to for support. In such a close election. neither party can take a chance of alienating vot- ers. Colmer Thom We Think Ottawa Journal i wit-h unpredictable consequenc- Twenty years ago the East Block was more aloof than it is now. No one dared stick a mic- rophone under Prime Minister King‘s nose when he left a Cab inet meeting. Mr. King. in fact. ordered the reporters out of the corridors outside the Privy Council chamber. and during the long evenings of Cabinet crisis in 1944 they stood in the snow or rain outdoors. waiting to be Ignored by the Prime Min- lster. Defence Minister Ral-slon was seeing a good deal of the Prime Minister in September. 1044. but Mr. Grant Dexter. his close friend. was probably the only correspondent in Ottawa who how much was involved in these conversations. Col. Ral- ston, preparing to visit the Canadian troops in Europe. was warning the Prime Minister that there might have to be conscription for overseas ser- vice. Mr. King was appalled. I-Ie preferred to believe the predic- tions that the war would soon be over and disregard the warn- ings that the Nazis and Japan- ese still were full of fight on many fronts. Col. Balaton. himself a heroic figure In the trench warfare of the First World War. went to Europe and heard from the fit- ed men on the battlefields how the lack of reinforcements plac- ed cruel strain upon Canadians in combat. He was convinced there must be conscription to :- overseas. Today to Ottawa the temper ary appears clash of mat political forces ’ es. Compared to 1944 it is a strait beside a political milkpond. In 1944 when Col. Ralston re- signed. shortly before the Gov- ernment did what he wished and approved conscription for overseas. the expectation was that the lo\g lnvulnerable King administration would be defeat- ed. Men swone the nation was be- ing torn asunder. that the sold- iers at the front were being mur- dered by Government policies. The enforcement of overseas conscription would bring revolu- tion! Whatever decision was made half the country would be forever alienated! What happened? On Victory Day in Europe 13.000 compul- sory service men were overseas and when the Japanese war- lords withered under the atom bomb everyone's thoughts in Canada turned from conscrip- tion to reconstruction. Mr. King whipped a construc tion program from ,an inside pocket and almost overnight Canada was back to norm]. After that sort of brush with the elements of disaster the‘flag do hate is not frightening. Canad- lana are calmer than they think, or were tiles. am y PLAN ANTI-CASTRO UNIT MIAMI, Fla.
