Expo 67. We have no hesitation in declaring that we came away astounded and proud of the achievement this International Exhibi- tion represents. There has neyer beei anything like it in the word ... and it wiIl be taking place in Canada duning aur Centennial year. - In this area we tend to think o: great exhibitions as the one held each year at the CNE in Toronto. Expo 67 .will be so different frorn the ONE and bc much langer that there really is no tomparison. It wîll be truly an inter- mational show with over 70 countries taking part in portraying "Man and His ,Wonld", bis values, achieverrents and aspirations. Every pavilion, every exhi- bit will bear out this theme in various pspects. - Our visit was made as the result bf an invitation from the Expo officiais With Mr. Don O'Donnell of the Public leations Department in charge of ar- ýangements. We have neyer had a more Pteresting or enlightening trip than this inne. It was an eye-opener from start to Sinish, hampered somewhat we must aRdmit by a tremendous snow storm that kit here a couple of hours before we Jeft Toronto by plane and choked Mont- real the day affer while we were tour- xIng the 1,000 acre Expo site. However, ýn spite of the sform, we did receive an excellent on the spot outside picture of the almost unhelievable pavllions and exhibits. Through lectures and colored çlides we also learned a' great deal of ,What would be seen and heard by Expo visitons when they arrîved at the site ~later this year. Fnankly, we were amazed at the ienthusiasmn of the professionals who bave been responsible for the planning aend the execution cf this projecf. Some have been working on if since 1958 and iiow if is coming close to complefion, they can hardly wait for if to open, to let the general public have a look af ,what bas been accomplished. We were brought in before the general public to convince us and you folks back home that a visit to Expo 67 bas te be a must en your agenda this year, Personally, wZe look forward with great anticipation moseing the fînished product. We could write reams about the exhibition, but thene are some special Items you should be told. Obtain your passports as quickly as possible at the ieduced rates. Plan to stay for several Delay The federal governnient, te be sure, hias ifs hands full but the wisdom cf delay in the reconstruction cf broad- çasting regulafion and management tnust be sharply questioned. For this tlhere are fwo main reasons. The first Is that world broadcasting is on the, verge of moving into space. If Canada wants a reasonable share in satellite development we should have a firm Policy ready. Winning a place will net Wrait indefinifely. Delay migbf mean there was ne place lef t for us to f ili, comnients The Montreal Star. In bath the public and privafe sec- tors of the broadcastîng industry, ex- perts are now bard at work,' studying the intnicate technological problems in- voived, se, intricate and fechnical that the layman can bardly grasp what is Lappening. Yet even the laymen knows thiat if the future cf breadcasting lies with satellites, this country cannot af- tord te be left ouf. The ultimafe prob- lem cf policy rests with the federal go v e r n m e n t fhrough ifs appointed beards. Admittedly those boards have nef of late been working very well. rer one thing, their ferms cf reference are outmoded, and do nof, if fhev ever did, correspond te the realities" cf a rapidly changing system. But new firm hands are needed on the contrals. The brnad lines cf a new policy were Dub- iished as long ago as last autumn. There are ne signs yet of the legislative action required. 1The second problem is, cf course, the îîow familiar question o! CBC preg- ramming. Recent event s are stili fresh in our minds. If is strange and sad commentary on the CBC that the core cf ifs openation - the field of news A nti-Rabies Clinic. in Ful Swing. days or more than a week, if possible. We guarantee you wil net be able to dash through this giganfic show in a day and feel you have seen Expo. There will be jusf too much te absorb in that time. Don't worry about your feet once you arrive at the site. Inside, they have the moÊt fantastic infernal transporta- tion system imagineable. They say, with confidence, that if anyone doesn't want te walk round the exhibition, they won't need te. Write ahead for accom- modation. They have elaborate plans te bouse ail the people who will be com- ing, at rates fhey can afford. Stipulate how much you want te pay per day, include any other details and your re- quest will be taken care of as speedily as possible. But, do if now, net later. Thousands of homes in and around Montreal will be used for accommoda- tien and each will be checked eut before being accepted. If you wish te take youn car to the site, they should be able to take care of the parking problem because vast areas have been set aside for this pur- pose. And fhey are building new roads and highways te handie a huge amount No doubf there wil he hitches in their arrangements, but certainly the officiais have done their utmost te plan ahead for almost every eventuality, so the needs and demands of the vîsiting public will be taken care of witb a minimum of incenvenience.

The infiltration ef the show-bi -syndrome, first manifest in the "Sevei Days" program last year, is now spread ing te other aspects cf both news an( public affairs pnogramrning. The conse quences are deplorable. Cheap and nasty is the word foi it. Most people would prefer some re turn te the aid standards cf reliability sobriefy and intelligence. Perhaps CBC management got tee sensitive ovei comments about the good, gney qualit. cf ifs presentations. But the eperativE word in that description is "good", and it is good ne longer. The CBC is, cf course, new in con- frol of a caretaker management. Mr. Ouimet's nesignatien is in the bands of the geverniment. But caretakers cannot, in the nature cf things, show much dynamism. They do not want te do anyfhing that will make their succes- sors' tasks foo difficult. This is rîght and preer. But events do 'iot waif upor decisions.
