AUGUST 21. isss For Atlantic Progress ()1 IIILCIPSI. to all our team.-rs was the vigorous address dcliici-ed be- fore the Llharlottetown Rotary Club yesterday by the lion. lltigh John Flemming, Premier of Now Bruns- uick. Mr. I-”l(-mmiiig stresseci the need for action in dealing with our common cconornic l)I'(tI)IPIY15. and he kept his iriiiairlis well above the level of partisan ilisi-iissiori. lie was emphatic in insistiiig that we must march foruarti with the rest of (Tamulu. or we shall fall fartlier be- hind as time goes on. We can. he believes. do something about this problem, and he lists some of the possible answers as follows: I The four provincial governments could achieve something by co- operation. That was the basic idea of the recent Premiersl Conference in Fredericton. The organized busi- ness community through the Mari- time Board of Trade and its agen- cies, the Maritimes Transportation Commission and the Atlantic Prov- inces Economic Council, can do a great deal. The banks should do more, perhaps, than they are now doing; the situation constitutes a challenge to them just as much as to government and industry. The railway: could also do more in the imaginative development of new policy, and the universities more in keeping regional problems under constant study. The National Government, Mr. Flemming believes, could do most of all: (I) by direct means such as Ipeeinl subsidies or adjustment grants; (b) by indirect means such In making it easier for the provin- cial governments to carry out the necessary capital investment for regional economic development: (c) by giving more consideration to re- gional economy in the application of national economic policies--es- pecially in the improvement of trans- portation. We must, Mr. Flemming sug- gests. look for the solution of our problems not in one or two of these fields, but in all of them. In the past we have tended to rely upon one or two objectives. seeking cures through I few prescriptions, where-, . I us. actually, we need I many-sided and concerted attack. Each province, he concedes, has its own particular problems. but there is I great deal of common ground on which we could all be working together. This idea is not new. but if. is one which continually crops up as the most important factor in achieving suc- cess. A Good Contribution -. Whatever else Mr. Adlai Steven- lon may contribute to the ensuing United States election, it is clear that he will give his millions of -,listeners many oratorical treats. He is beyond doubt the most accom- pkhed speaker among all the prom- lnent public figures on the American scene. Indeed, it might very well be said that not Iince the late Franklin D. Roosevelt has his equal been heard from any political platform. His great gifts in this respect may or may not help to bring him to political victory in November; but at least they will enliven the hust- Elngs which. save for his 1952 cam- '- gn,,-has been marked by more or .;-a lien: Irld speech: for more than I r ,decIde. There has been plenty of I loud talk. but I dearth of stimulat- l , it-' phrueology; much invectfve. it; -5 (cw Irzuments of measured u I sharpened by profound 7:? t seasoned by wit.-Mr. Stev- paueu these. gifts -r ' Iwenrugn, an recognized by m: h0'U;D'-WOIITC, farhim any I ,-In aside that gladden the emotions momentarily. That is about as far as his oratory goes. There is no fire that keeps on consuming whatever it has touched, no light that keeps burning once the sound of his words has passed way. It would be difficult to mention anyone in contemporary high places of political authority who might be said to possess the ”power to stir menls blood." Almost it is a lost art. In England it followed Sir Winston Churchill into retirement. In the United States it passed away with Mr. Roosevelt. In Canada it went into obscurity so long 330 W31 VGFY few Canadians can remember it at all. Many will say it is of no con- sequence. Perhaps that is true; but somehow it is pleasant to note its revival in a potential President of the United States.I A Resolution OI Merit One resolution adopted at the annual meeting of the ijimadian Teacheiosl Federation in Fmltwicton is of special merit. It calls for I national conference to dismiss edu- cational problems on an all-Laiiadian front. - There are many educational problems and needs which are com- mon to all the Provinces. It would seem that the right way to tackle them is by joint consideration and action. The purely local problems, too, ought to be made a little less troublesome by the fresh insights and detached viewpoints which such I conference might reasonably be expected to provide. Provincial jur- isdiction is one thing; Provincial iso- lation is quite another, and there is not the slightest excuse for it. The Federal Government should show a practical interest in this pro- posed conference by sponsoring it and paying its bills. It would be little enough to do concerning I need which is more closely related to the national wellbeing than any other that might be mentioned. In the United States the President's Con- ference on Education is considered I very important event; so import- ant, indeed, that it is held at the seat of the Federal Government under the personal patronage of the President. It is attended by educa- tors, school administrators, state of- ficials and representatives of teach- ers organizations from all over the country. A somewhat similar plan is evidently what Canadian teachers have in mind. It should be proceeded with at the earliest possible moment, for the need is great. And if in due course it were to lead to the estab- lishment of 11 Federal Bureau of Education-another recommendation of the Federation-so much the better. There would be plenty for such It bureau to do without tres- passing on any Provincial right. EDITORIAL NOTES A Moscow report says that the official newspaper "Pravda" com- pletely ignored the Democratic Na- tional Convention. That was a lucky break for the Democrats. No doubt the Republicans are hoping for a similar treatment. I C 9 Mr. Adlai Stevenson is starting out on his election campaign under handicaps set up by fellow Demo- crats. Following hard on Mr. Tru- man's charges of ”defeatism" comes John 1.. Lewis, that old warrior of the United Mine Workers, to say that Stevenson's nomination "is equivalent to I certificate of election for Eisenhower." I I, O No one could blame United States Secretary of State Dulles for being a little perplexed over the unkind things said about him It the Demo- cratic National Convention, especial- ly the hard words that came from Mr. Truman. During Mr. Truman's presidency Mr. Dulles was one of his tnisted advisers on foreign affairs. On several occulons he went on im- portant missions for the President.

THE FAMILY FARM Sir.- Your editorial on "The Family Farm" lAugust 16. 1956) was read with interest by many who have long lamented the steady decline in some aspects of rural life. it is encouraging to learn that some public officials are at last becoming concerned --in a practic- al way--with the prohlrms of the small farmers. It is even more encouraging to find editors and publishers who are anxious to en- lighten. the public regarding ”the most honourable calling in file natural order.” Incidentally. the family farm- with more emphasis on the "fam- ily" than on the "farm"-will be the principal Iubject of study It the Conference on Family Life to beheld September I to 3 at St. Dunstan's University. On the open- ing day many of Prince Edward Island's teachers will consider their special obligations to the rural family. On the second and third days clergy and laity repre- senting every parish in the Char- lnttctown diocese will study various problems confronting the modern Christian family. Such articles as the above-menb ioned editorial and the account of Dr. Frank Mai-l(innon's recent ad- dress on rural education are deeply appreciated by readers who still believe in the valurs and virtues of normal rural living.

Everyone is thus ap- prehensive in Regiments in case some dulll uniformity is imposed which would take the Iormv of I utility dressr losing all distinctive Regimental features and those glorious emblems in which all Re- giments revel. Meanwhile what has become of alll the glorious uniforms which dl tlnguislied Regiments wore he- tweeen the wars? They Ire all stored-thousands of them at the Central Ordnance Depot Branston Derbyshire. There are to be seen the red coats of famed infantry re- giments with spiked blue helmets as worn up to the outbreak of World War I on August 4th 1914- and sometimes In the years be- tween though usually only by the Regimental Bands. But Officers wore them It Levee; at Bucking- ham Palace.

The ceremonies commenced with I short service in the little church of St. John. near the hill- top. Both the church and the path to the hill were strewn with rush- es. These. in pre-Norse times, were the tribute paid to Mann- anin. the ancient god of the is- land. After the service the Lieuten- ant Governor of the island. re- presenting the Queen (who is the "Lord" of Mull. Her Deemsters and Council. and the members of the House of Keys. went in pro cession to gather on the Hill of Tynwald. All members of the Court. wore a sprig of Bnllane- feaill-Eoln (St. John's Wort I. worn originally to ward off evil spirits. ANCIENT FORMULA The first act of His Excellency was to call upon the Coroner of Glenfabo to "fence" the Court in ancient formula. The Acts of Parliament enacted in the pre- vtrws year were then read in Eng- Ilsh. followed immediately by I translation into Manx. Here is one sars-the burnished plumed hei- mets of the Drngooonl and Lancers with their dark blue or scarlet tunic: and multi-colored front: which replaced their breastplntes of other years. POSI-Is OF HISTORY There are enough uniforms in I this aluiehouse to bring back I , page or two of British history; to clothe perhaps It least 100 sold- iers per batttallon of infantry; Hus- sars, Dragoons; Lancers; Engl- neeerx: Artillery etc; and such hurt-warming units Is King Ed- wIrd'I Horse in their light khaki with scarlet facing: and slouch hats which only those who have served in the Dominion: and Col- onies may join-all Ire secretly stored away from moth and fire. But stored for what? If the Brit- ish Army Is not yet back in the glory of its historic full dress unl- formo-upon which every piece of gold or silver ornament has l0mI hlstorlc battle meaning-these unl- forms will in time be reduced to the status of fancy dress. When the 7th Huasnrs desired to dress I few men in their pre- war glory lately for In offflcial visit to Norway. permission was refused: but by 1! nice fiddle they managed it. Churchill-colonel of the 4th Hussars--managed to wan- gle I set of pre-war uniforms for the 4th Hussnrs to provide him with an escort at the Coronation: he was entitled to this Is Colonel of the Regiment.
