Mr. Gordon's Visit Mr. Donald Gordon is no strang- er to Charlottetown. or indeed to any other part of Canada. for as President of the Canadian National Railways he has traversed the country many times from coast to coast. On his visit here this week. limvever. he is being accompanied by Mrs. Gordon. whom it is a priv- ilege indeed to welcome along with her distinguished husband. Cordial- l,v welcomed. also, will be Mr. H.(‘. Grayuton. Vice-president for the Atlantic Region. The chief purpose of Mr. Gor- don's visit is to address the Cana- dian t'lub tomorrow evening. in re- sponsc to an invitation to which he has courteously given priority over Circula‘lon. other pressing business at this lime As intimated irl our news columns. however. he will hold a press conference following his ar- rival this cvcning. and tomorrow will call lit‘llcially upon His Honor the.

Started With 12 Hens Our farm readers will be interest.- ed in a summary we have receiv— rd of a recent BBC broadcast about. a small town in Yorkshire. with the strangc name of ll’lytholmroyd. This town bi I'rlSi.’- one. of the biggest chicken-breeding organizations in the world. [,2 st. year it raised thirty-three million chicks for egg production and exported them to many parts of the globe. This huge industry was started by the managing director's father weaver—some half century ago with twelve. broody hens kept. in boxes in the. barnyard. He had turned to the. hobby in order to make money during a strike. and used to buy hatching eggs from local farmers. hatch them. and sell the chicks in the local market. When the strike was over he de- cided this might well be more pro- fitable than weaving. Today the group has eight mod- ern hatcheries pinpointed around England. Scotland and Ireland and —3 west Germay The one visited by the broadcaster "could have been mistaken for a hospital. with its white-riled walls. plastic ceilings. plastic-covered floors. flickering dials. push-button controls. green- coated workers. and ingenious hat.- ching rooms where the temperature is held stmdy at 100 degrees Fah- renheit. and every hour the trays with their thousands of eggs turn autoniuticnlly to stimulate the na- tural mm'umcnt of the hen on her nest." The organization spends nearly Zorrooo pounds sterling a year on research illl(l employs over thirty graduate geneticists. A computer aids in rescurch into the best meth- ods of breeding newer and improv- cd chickens. Close liaison is kept with universities and other estab- lishments doing research in a sim- ilar field. and a. number of visitors spend zome months studying the scientific teachiques on the farm. At the time of the broadcast these included an Austrian. a German. an Indian and a Ghanaian. A success story which serves as a reminder that the big industrial centres have no monopoly an en. IPI‘pl'isr‘. t‘l't‘ll in the field of mass production. and that it is not so much the opportunities we have that really count. as those we create for ourselves. Quebec's Position at last week’s federal— provincial conference. we suppose. cared to remind Premier Lesage of an incidcnt that occurred at. the hearing last month of Quebe‘s Roy- al Commission on Taxation. Les Club de Flcur-de-Lis contended be- fore the commission that the prov- vincc was suffering “discrimina- tion” at the hands of Ottawa; but the chairman of the commission, Mr. Belangcr. promptly took issue with this contention. .\lr. Bcl-mger pointed out that in 1963-64 Quebec received 28.6 per cent of federal contributions to joint federal-provincial programs. though only 35 per cent of the Can- adian population lives there. The province also received nearly one- half of all the federal government's equalization payments—42 per cent. This was not the short end of the stick. Xvi ont‘ Quebec maintains. however, that it must have more, and Frontier Lesage intends to get it one way or another. Ho is preparing now to present his own budget, and he has hinted that he will raise “the spec- tra of double taxation" in Quebec if his government's demands for more tax revenues go unanswered. And he has made it clear that he will blame Ottawa if double taxation is announced in his budget speech. What this means politically is not hard to spell out. In a Cana- dian Press despatch on Saturday it was noted that a break-away move- ment has developed within the pow- erful Quebec Liberal Federation, which provides most of the Quebec organization for the Federal Liber- als in elections. its withdrawal from the Liberal party of Canada could have, the federal group an unorganized nucleus in Quebec. which at present has 75 seats in the Commons. A situation that could be loaded with trouble not only for the Liberal government. at Ottawa. but for the whole country. EDITORIAL NOTES Soviet scientists claim to have found—for what it is Worth—the coldest spot on earth. It is about. 260 miles from the South Pole in the direction of India. and it. has an average annual temperature of perhaps 76 degrees below zero. The scientists drew this conclusion af- ter measuring—via borings—the temperature of the Antarctic icecap there. I 0 Personal income taxes. it has been asserted for many years, are. lower in Canada than in the United States. But as pointed out in Letter Review. an Ontario publication. it does not matter what rates are lower; it is what dollars are paid as applying to the same person or size of family on each side of the border. Married people in (‘anada cannot combine their income for taxation purposes. They can in the U.S. In the US all other taxes can be deducted from taxable personal income. There is no income tax on interest. The list is a long one and o‘ninth in process of building in l there is no similar list in Canada. #4!

WHITE PAPER CLARITY The recent publication of the Pearson Government‘s While Papcr on Doicucc shows clear- ly that our Dcparlmcnts of Eh- tielrnal Affairs and l‘tclcncc are now working in complete has- many. and have arrived at “a defence policy which is not dissociated from foreign policy. yet has like 0bj(’(‘il\'(‘ of keep- ing the peace by supportin: collective defence measures to deter military aggression." A would nuclear holocaust is _ unlikely. this White Paper tells us: u-t the advocates of World Government will welcome tlir hint that Canada take a first step in tihis direction by main- taining at the ready an appro- priate contribution any rc- . quired international peace- kecping force raised by the United Nations. “It is essential that a na- tion's diplomacy bc backed up by adequate and flexible mili- tary forces to permit participa- l lion in collective sci-urin an peace-keeping. and to be ready for crises should they arise.‘ says the White Paper. The proud degree of readiness of Canada‘s forces was underlined by Prime Minister Pearson potently : when he confided to a hand-pick- ed Liberal audience that "when l we decided to send the first small advance contingent to Cyprus. they were off with half ran hour of the order being given."

The ordinary faint is a reflex reaction involving the circula- tion. It usually follows an emo- tional upheaval. fright. severe pain. or extreme exhaustion. The sensation may take place on getting out of bed for the firs t time after an opera- tion or a prolonged illness. Men often faint at the sight of blood or when given a hypo- dermic injection. Women may do so when forced to stand in a warm. crowded. and poorly ventilated r o o m more when tired or exasperated. The victim feels weak. turns pale. becomes nauseated. swal- lows re atedly. and often breaks out In a cold sweat. He may pass out unless he can lie down immediately or sit with u 0 the head below the level of the sten the victim's clothing. ' ope n the windows, and give a whiff of spirits of ammonia.

"Since thc war Canada's arm- ed forces have been increasing- ly engaged in peace—keeping,r operations mostly under the ' auspices of the United Natlons,.. These operations have varied in size and scope." They range. explains White Paper. from mixed tary observer teams in Kash- mir.

The byelection victories have been seen as a vote of confiden- ce in Mr. Lcmass‘s leadership. Observers feel that. he is now the leader of the government in his own right and no longer sim- ply Mr. de Valera‘s successor.

Old Myths AndMNew Realities By Joseph IcSween Canadian Press Staff Writer The new malevolent turn in relations between the Soviet Union and Red China drama- tizes what is surely an epochal moment in ‘s y. The rush of events in the last 10 years has brought the world —it seems suddenly to a watershed of change in which political gospels are being chal- ; lenged everywhere, British observers were deeply impressed by the recent. speech of J. William Fulbright. chair- man of the United States Sen- ate foreign relations committee. who said his own country ll clinging to old myths in the face of new realities. Perhaps they are even more the speech. which indicated that some of what Fulbright said-— particularly regarding Russia— is regarded as commonplace in the US. except in official pro- nounccmcnls. SAID BEFORE are aware that US, administration — it would 0 say he was riodical put it. “The nub of what Mr. Ful- bright liad to say about rela- tions with European commu- nism—namely. that the Com- munist countries are diverse and need to be treated with dis- crimination—had been said pre. ,f viously in February and March by Mr. Dean Rusk. the secre- tary of state. and at least two other officials of the state de- partment." Meanwhile. Soviet Premier Khrushchev is visiting Hungary which only eight years ago was regarded as the most squalid example of Communist oppres— sion. Now it is hailed for its independence of spirit in the Communist context. "Budapest. rather to Its own surprise. suddenly finds regarded as some sort of Paris [ sion and of Eastern Europe," says the l effectively lackled.‘ . Ful- E bright wasn‘t speaking for 'Ilte I Soviet Union on the road back London Daily Mail. “It has be. c to most cosmopolitan of all capitals in the Communist bloc. It is also far and away the gayest." ANTI-WHITE DRIV R It seems only yesterday that the Soviet Union was seen a he sole seducer of new coun- tries of Africa and Asia. New a Soviet delegate says after an Afro - Asian conference “vet Communist China is trying to unite the yellow and black races against whites. FOMENTING HATRED "The national socialist propa- ganda of the Chinese is not only dangerous for the Soviet Union but for all countries of Europe. and elsewhere. It is hatred they are fomenting." Can anyone imagine the term national socialist -— Nazi—being used between Moscow and Pe- king during their love affair only a few years ago? But that insult is milder than Pcking's denunciation of Khrushchev who is leading the a. to capitalism. So vast are the changes that some observers are already talking in terms of a future struggle between Russia and the US. on the one hand and Red China on the other—a con- cept earlier mentioned by Pres- ident de Gaulle. Anthony Wedgwood Benn. British Labor member of Far- liament. writes in the Manches- ter Guardian- “We shall gain nothing from a new cold war between rich. militarily strong whites led by American and Russia and the non - white majority of the world's population pledged. un- der Chinese leadership. to glo- bal revolution. “Yet that is just what will inevitably happen if China con- tinues to be isolated. and the itself l basic problems of racial oppres- world poverty are not Ask Mandatory Tests Highway Safety News A umlorm highway code for Canada. and mandatory seat belts “would be of considerable assistance to law enforcement officers in their anxiety to find a solution to the ever-increasing traffic problem". declared the Canadian Association of Chic of Police in a brief presented to the federal government. The association urged manda‘ tory semi-annual inspection of all motor vehicles and breathal- u-u. In , izcr lei for anyone suspected of driving while under the. influen- ce of alcohol or drugs. In the proposed amendment to the Criminal Code. the chiefs l suggested a repeal of the sec- tions dealing with intoxicated drivers and impaired drivers. In their place one section should be inserted making it an offense to rive "while under the influence of alcohol or a drug.“ Under the present “intoxicat ed driving" section of the act. conviction is difficult: the police . must prove the accused has con- sumed alcohol and is not im- paired for some other reason. The new section added to the code would define. the percent.- age of alcohol in the blood- stream thnt constitutes intoxica- lion. Compulsory inspection for all motor vehicles in the Province of Quebec. luminous paint for licence plates. formation of a special unit of the provrnclal police to handle highway traffic. compulsory medical examina- tion for all professional drivers and the adoption of a point sys- tem for Quebec drivers. were recommended by Prudentia. the provincial highway safety com- mittee. in a brief upresented to Hon. Gerard Cournoyer. Quebec minister of transport and com munications. Pointing out that laws provid. ing for compulsory Inspection of vehicles and enforcement of the point system were already on the province‘s statute books.
