Pension Plan, the provinces will control investments of the money that accumulates as the. plan develops. Actuaries believe that this will lead to big changes in pro— vincial and municipal borrowing patterns. The plan is now expect- ed to go into operation by Jan. 1, 1966, and some authorities predict that it. may make available to the provinces more than $8.000 million for investment by 1975. This is a staggering figure. large enough to absorb virtually all the new issues (net) made in Canada by all governments in the four years 1960-63. It. is not official, but it forms the basis of a speculative article in the current issue of The Financial Post in which the im- plications are set forth at consider- able longhh. Note is taken of the fact that. the Royal Commission on Ranking and Finance had several reserva- tions about the possible. disrupting effect of a national pension plan that built up a big investment fund. It could lead to a sharp decline in other forms of savings. encourage governments to spend more freely than they otherwise would, put a large part of the financial system under government domination, and have other undesirable effects. This will depend, ultimately, on the ex- tent to which savings which have been invested previously by private pension administrations are reduc- ed and redirected. and or. the use to which the new funds are put. There ie still no definite in- dication from the provinces as to how. and by whom. the great sums entrusted to them will be invested. In this connection note is taken of a prospect which is anything but reassuring. 'l‘hal is the great. diver- gence of investment, policy that could arise between the provinces, resulting in some provinces build- ing up a much larger fund propor- tionately than other provinces. Such a situation could lead to more pree- eure for increased benefite in those provinces with proportionately larger funds. and create confusion instead of uniformity in the plan's operation. f Something. here, for Parliament to look into closely before the legis- lation goes through. A Thorny lssue Among the most confused men at. Washington. says a New York Times report, are the. 35 members of bite House judiciary omnmittoe. The issue before them ie whether to appmve one of several amendments to flhe Grmstirtuution that. Would, in effect. repudiate Supreme Court decleiona prohibiting the use of prayers or Bible selections for do votional pummes in U.S. public echools. In its decision of June 25, 1962, the Court ruled that the reading of on official prayer in New York public schools violated the First Amendment of the Constitution. The public outcry was immediate and immenee. Many feared that if the Court could make public-achool payers unamdrihnional it might .ulblnubeiy strip all religion from public proceedings, and the prayer: in Omgreea. eliminate chaphine in .theumedaervioaaandevan ruleout paella obaervancea at Christmas.

It. noted that , the Court. itself opened each ses- . sion by invoking the grace of God. emphasized that the place in relig- ion in America “is an exalted one." and stressed that what it was try- ing to do was to insure that “in the. relationship between man and religion. the slate is firmly commit- ted to a position of neutrality." Some witnesses before the com- niittet> are. still deeply troubled by the fears of 1962. and twenty—four , have testified in favor of a con- ! stitutionul amendment, among them i a colorful array of Congressmen l and clergynlen. ()n the other side of the argument is an equally ener- getic. if somewhat loosely organized. group consisting parlly of lawyers ~—among them the president of the. A m e r i c a n Rar Assmiation-Jmt largely of clergymen. Almost all Jewish leaders have opposed the amendments. So. have the National Council of (Thur- ches and. with important exceptions, a considerable number of Episco- V palians and Roman Catholics. Es- l sentially. their arguments are based i on appreciation of the (‘ourt’s as— surance, in 1963, that it was in no way threatening Americans‘ relig- ious heritage. They argue further l that; by taking compulsory religion out of the public schools the Court strengthened rather than weakened religious practices, in the sense that it rcaffirmcd the personal nature of the. religious experience and rein- forced the historic independence of the church from the state. Although the committee had hoped to wind up hearings last; week, continued demands for opportuni- ties to testify have prompted the chairman to schedule sessions for the rest of the month. But he has been warned not to delay or stall. if he does. it. is certain the drive for amending the constitution will be resumed. The petition. which requires lhe signa turn of 218 members. now contains 167. A successful petition would take the bill away from the judiciary com- mittee and force it to the floor of the House for a showdown. Apl Phrase-Maker According to an Ottawa com- mentator, a new phrase-maker has been discovered in the House of Commons. He is Grant Deachman, freshman Liberal MP for Vancouv- er Quadra, who it seems doesn't say much in the. House but who recently I displayed his ability as a verbal ' marksman at a. service club func- tion. in commenting on two promin- , enl members of his own party ad- ministration. Speaking of the ability of Trans- port Minister Pickersgill to evade the sharpest Opposition questions by seeming to respond fully while actually telling nothing. Mr. Deach- man affirmed that nobody under- stood this art better or practiced it more defth than the hon. member for Ronavista-Twillingate. "Give Jack Pickersgill some steel wool.” he said, “and he would knit you a. stove." And of External Affairs Minis- ter Martin the Vancouver phrase- maker had this to say: “Paul Mar- tin’s technique is different if no less effective. On the floor of the Com- mons he softly stones his critics to death with marshmallows. He la the master of the circumlocutious phrase." Why haven't these felicitous morsels been dropped where they could be recorded in Hansard? Evidently Mr. Deachman finds the atmosphere of the House too cold and indifferent. "It lifts the spir- its.” he told hearers on this occas- ion, “to see an audience that staye and listens to a speaker instead of ducking into the lobbies for a. smoke as won as a backbencher rises to his feet.” We have often thought that if the Commons paid more attention to its backbenchers, it would find the strain of listening to the pond- enoua speeches of its frontbenchera easier to endure. From now on, at least, when Grant Dcachman gets up to talk, it. will be waiting to hear more about knitting stoves out of steel wool and stoning people to death with marshmallowa.

This problem was outlined to me by lion. Harry Hays. Minis- ter of Agriculture, as we sat talking in his brightlyt-aparis- oned sun-drenched Parliament office yesterday. There are only about 402,000 farmers in Canada now. and this number is shrinking at the rate of 3 per cent yearly. the Minister told me. The farm help form has shrunk to about 000.- 000 and this is declining at the same rate. . The bluff atocky Calgarlan ca- l binet minister is no stranger to a farming. A millionaire rancher. and farmer himself, he knows the subject, from the hired-hand to the price of cattle, He has a ready tongue to express his well informed ideas. but in his par» llamcntary salad days he was criticized for saying the right thing in the wronz way, Starting his career in forlorn] polilif‘S last year on the top rung - v as a cabinet minister » he suffered ‘ from nonkyilis in hls early days , in Parliament. But his perfor- mance latterly is rczardcd on Parliament llill as making him an outstandin candidate for the award for the Most Improved _ Cabinet Minister. HOW TO SOLVE PROBLEMS Harry Hays said that todays' average farm represents an im- vcslmcnt of over WNW, This includes 300 acres, which ls the smallest unit that can be farm- , ed economically. and buildings from rookyltis in his early days combine costs $10000 or so, and this is essential to replace the disappearing farm help. One ' and careful operator, . Hays considers. using well-designed machinery, can do the work of five farm~helpers using their hands. Mosl young! people who would like to take up farming as a life- time career just haven't got that kind of capital to finance their start. the Minister says. They are forced to borrow, and the normal terms might be a 10 your pay-off at 5 per cent inlcr« cst or higher, Thus the farmer is paying out 15 per cent on his $60000 investment. or $9.000 per year, which is crippling. There should be finance made avail- able for farmers on a 40 or 50 year pay-off. Harry llays con- siders or. as he recently found available to Dutch tarm- ena. even 60 years. l IMMIGRATION NEEDED The shortage of farm help, he told me. could be met by lmml- gratlon.

Q The code is designed mainly to prevent the more extravagant blandishmcnls of cigarette ad- vertising from being directed at persons under 2i years of axle. The standards set forth in the code cover two aspects of cigar- 1 ettc. claims that have been with us for a long time The li rst would severely limit the ' ity“ tlicmc. ln point of fact, vortlsmg copy featuring alh , letcs has almost entirely disap peared in recent months. The second aspect involves "representation with really any spot-l to health." This is the heart of the code and a tential source of conflict. To pass judgments on health lm- pllcations in the advertising of ‘ cigarettes will indeed be diffi- cult for an administrator to do. torminc. But the cigarette manufactur- ers who have adopted this be- lated code give proof positive that they are \vllling to impose higher standards of advertising ‘ hazards involved.
