This is the information which has {been placed before the United Nations Deganization by its high commissioner i refugees. "The figures presented by the refugee léommissioner, Dr. C. J. van Heuven Goed- "hart, showed that out of 2,500,000 which md been placed under the mandate of Tig ofties, some 350,000 have not yet assimilated. Included in this latter igure are some 88,000 refugees who are {still living in assembly camps in Europe. WMany of these are in a sad plight, Cer- tain groups of them. mainly in Germany, fltaly, Austria and Greece, stand little chance of migration overseas to other lands. A permanent solution to their 'problem, therefore, could best be found thy helping these people to become inte- grated into the economy of the countries there they are now living. With some it financial support, the commissioner stated, projects could be initiated to help these refugees become self-supporting. Touched by the tragic plight of these homeless, unwanted people, the United Nations General Assembly has authoriz- ed the establishment of a fund to help solve their problem. This will be made up of voluntary contributions from both member and non-member countries. Ex- perts have estimated that about $3,500, 000 yearly will finance the projects which are in mind. When one considers the fact that 62 countries are members of the UNO, and that these include the world's richest countries, this seems like a very small sum to raise by their volun- tary contributions. It would be worth more than $38,500,000 a year to have these 350,000 wandering refugees rehab- ilitated, and given permanent homes in countries where they could be re-estab- lished. There should be no difficulty in having the necessary money provided for a happy end to the problem of these un- happy people. tPakistan Has Serious Problems ¢ H The high hopes entertained by Cana- ians for the firm economic and political establishment of the sister Common- § wealth of Pakistan have been somewhat I" Shaken by the political dissensions which Li ave overtaken that eountry. Still in the formative stages, Pakistan's ature depends on the establishment ef stable democratic government. Some six years have passed since the i indian peninsula attained full self govern- ¥ ment and Pakistan became a separate state. { Governed at the outset under a modi- %ed version of the India Act of 1935, it faced the task of drafting a constitution and working owt a permanent govern- mont. The Constituent Assembly was wapposed to draft a constitution and to junction as a Parliament; but though a Bonstitution was tentatively drafted, it 'sas failed to secure formal approval. Now the Constituent Assembly has | seen dissolved, and the entire task of constitution-making has to be undertaken by a new elective body. India had the advantage of starting with the machinery of government func- tioning, and had a constitution drafted and approved by the end of 1949 and shortly after held its first elections as 2 separate state. In contrast, the Pakistan assembly is still grappling -- or perhaps failing to grapple -- with the problems of a consti- tution and an organized and representa- tive government. A handicap to Pakistan has been the economic problems it faced from the very outset. Much effort has been spent to establish the country on a sound and self- pretty sustaining economic basis. But, if Pakistan is to realize the great future which the leaders visioned through the years, a constitution, an elective and representative parliament and a function- ing government are necessary. Speaking of Sense of Duty Sense of duty is a force which impels 'sersons to pay oourtesy calls, or send lowers, or be in one place when they 'would prefer 0 be im another place, or % volunteer for jobs hat other persons cefuse to take. _ Sense of duty gets persons up out of sick beds, inspires them to keep going 'when they are physically exhausted er an feel a sick headache coming on. Jt forbids the thinking up of lame ex- ses such as persons saying they are 'akemr-up with their families and have e for nothing else, or that at the mo- ment when, they are most needed they vill be away, or that there are other per- sons much better qualified to do the job Han they.

Who would labor and slave and get themselves into such a nervous state that they can't sleep at night just in order te get things done? As they look around them at all the growth and progress that has been made in recent years they reflect that none of this would have taken place had it not been for persons with a sense of duty. The more they reflect on the importance of a sense of duty, the more 'they flatter themselves that they are numbered among those useful persons who obey it. But what is their distress when they remark that they are going to do some- thing out of a sense of duty and some cynic retorts that there is no such thing, and that what people call a sense of duty is nothing more than a way to get credit ; for doing something they very much want to do. Editorial Notes A German court has made a formal ruling that Adolf Hitler is dead. So now we won't have to worry for fear he might turn up in some faraway place. One of the encouraging signs in the North American economy is found in the fact that demand for steel has increased for the fifth straight week.

They saw him sit there without changing expression, except pos- sibly for a further dropping of al- ways lowered eye-lids, as Premier Frost and others described him as a "genius extraordinary,' 'tower of strength" and generally as a unusual SON. The mild little man party sup- porters at the annual meeting of the Progressive Conservative As. sociation were watching was the "Mr. Big" of the Ontario PC party. MAIN "PRO" ? For a politician, comparatively few people know A. D. "Alec" Me- Kenzie, but aside from Premier 'Frost he is the most powerful man in the PC party in the province. He is the chief "pro." The main man behind the scenes who runs the very extensive organiaztion, volunt and professional, that keeps ay A Conservatives healthy and in power To the public he is best known as president of the Ontario Pro- gressive Conservative Association, but even more important for pac- tical purposes is his less - known title of chief organizer for the prov- ince. This is the title that gives him his power and the scope for his extraordinary genius, It is the job under which he has say over how much money members will be given to run their campaigns, how Man the campaigns shall be run, who shall be given jobs and a hundred and one other inner party matters. And of course as the key-man he is a keeper of secrets, financial and others, that could cause the party severe embarrassment if they were ever public. LOOKS BELIE The premier and other party sahibs in their tributes weren't wasting words. There seems little doubt that Alee MacKenzie has genius as a political master-mind. You wouldn't suspect it from looking at him. A mild-mannered lawyer, originally out of Guelph, he doesn't even come close to the big-talking cigar-smoking extro- verts customarily associated with professional politics. He more re- bl a2 destly successful shop-keeper, a successful civic ser: vant or even a clergyman of one of the less- sects. But as so often happens, appearances don't tell the true story. MUCH CREDIT Nobody can assess how much responsibility the chief organizer has had in Rewhisig his party in power, but individual members will tell you it has been a great deal. (And they tell you in the respectful tones school - boys use towards teachers who aren't averse to the strap.) Certainly the PC's have one of the finest organizations the coun- try has ever seen (And that in- cludes the federal Liberals) It works quietly, but ever so effici- ently, and of course it has got results. And a lot of the credit goes to the soft-spoken man who administers it. On Carpet. McCarthy Prepares His ' WASHINGTON (AP) Senate leaders planned last-minute pro- cedure talks today on the Senate's special session amid predictions a final vote on whether to censure Senator Joseph McCarthy (Rep. Wis.) will come in a week or two McCarthy and his staff members meanwhile were reported arrang- ing strategy meetings with senator friendly to his cause. McCarthy has said he plans a detailed pres- entation of his side of the case for the benefit of the public, but has declined to call it a defence. With the opening date only three days away, Senae Democratic leader Lyndon Johnson of Texas flew into Washington Friday night for a conference with Senate ma- jority leader William Knowland of California on what order of pro- cedure to' follow. Senator Homer Ferguson {Rep: Mich.), chairman of the Repu lican policy committee, told report- ers, "I personally will be disap- pointed if it (the special session) lasts more than a week." He said Defence" the Senate is reconvening to do "one specific thing" dispose of a special committee's report recom- mending that McCarthy should be censured on three counts, Senator Ralph Flanders Vt.), who inititated the censure move, told reporters 'I will arise and protest" if Senate members inerrupt the proceedings with speeches on other subjects. 'This is serious business and the Senate should give it undivided attention." The resolution to go before the Senate Monday calls for an official reprimand for McCarthy on these three counts: That McCarthy (1) was in con- tempt of a Senate elections sud" committee which investigated him in 1952; (2) vulgarly denounced one member of that group, Senator Robert Hendrickson (Rep. N.J.), and (3) unjustly abused Brig.-Gen. Ralph W. Zwicker in questioning Zwicker about the disputed case of Maj. Irving Peress, whom Wec- Carthy terms mu "fifth amendmen} Communist."

Burlington Arcade, a covered way between Piccadilly and fasn- ionable Mayfair, which is ofien missed by Canadian visitors bound for the more imposing Royal Aca demy headquarters at Burlington House next door, has been rebuilt after extensive war damage Now the Hussar veterans who act as 'beadles' cnforcing the ar- .

It was feared that soldiers would talk to nursemaids airing upper class children and cause obstruction. But this rule has recently been relaxed. BUILT IN 1819 In other ways there is little dif ference between the atmosphere of the arcade today and that of 1819 whn it was built by Lord George Cavandish at the time adjoining Burlington House, his residence, was being remodelled Lord George ordered architect Samuel Ware to build a covered shopping promenade "for the grat- ification of the public and to give employment to industrious fe- males." The rebuilding of the arcade has closely followed the old pattern and bricks have been selected to tone with those of the part left standing. But students of archi- tecture complain the design is not the original Regency one but a 1930 remodelling The shops are small with bay fronts and tiny staircases leading to upper storerooms.

BUNDESEN MD "PAINLESS" childbirth can be harmful to both the mother and baby if the wrong technique is used, Unfortunately, there are moth- ers who at times refuse to toler- ate a little pain during birth. I know most of you mothers don't realize that you can stand pain-relieving drugs much better than your unborn baby. NO IDEAL DRUG While many drugs have been used to give labor relief, no drug has been found to be ideal for this purpose. If given too early some drugs may prolong labor. Others may make the mother - to - be non- co-operative and extremely rest- less. This may change what would have been a normal birth into an abnormal one. Also, if a drugis given close Hazards to the time of birth, the baby ma be born sleepy: and have difficulty breathing. Such a situation is es- ecially dangerous for an infant rn a natitely, ANOTHER PROBLEM _ Some drugs may also cause an increase in the amount of bleed- ing at the time of delivery. 1 believe a mother should be willng to stand a little pain if she may be virtually assured that her baby will be born alive. And I think most mothers will agree with me. QUESTION AND ANSWER Miss G. P.: Can nose and throat infection sbe cured? Answer: Practically all nose and throat infections can be clear- ed up with proper treatment. An examination is needed to find the cause of the difficulty before proper treatment is carred out. The anti- biotic drugs hould be helpful. OTTAWA REPORT Cabinet Ministers Take To Hustings By PATRICK NICHOLSON Special Correspondent to The Times-Gazette OTTAWA -- Polling 'day in this fall's six - shot federal elections leaves two novel thoughts here. The first is that the representa- tives of the government have had a rougher ride than in any pre- vious post-war balloting. Electors have posed some unanswerable questions and complaints, and this has been notably the case in the Selkirk division of Manitoba, where the CCF have been waging a thor- oughly effective campaign, Justice Minister Stuart Garson has been running the campaign for the Lib- eral party: "He is a good clean fighter, but he is on the ropes" is one opposition opinion. Mr. Garson has had considerable assistance from other cabinet ministers, no- tably Agriculture Minister Gardiner and Immigration Minister Pickers- gill. "They come in like big shots and go out like pea-shooters' is one local comment upon these re- inforcements. The second thought is prompted by the unprecedented concentration of big-shot support for the Liberal candidates in these six by-elections. So many cabinet ministers have been electioneering around Mont- real, Toronto, Stormont and Sel- kirk that the actual Liberal candi- dates -- in five cases rather aver- age back-bench material -- have been largely obscured by the gla- mor. It does raise this question, arising out of the modern trend to convert the unpaid or underpaid amateur politician of the early 20th Century into the highly - paid, pro- fessional executive - politician of the mid-20th Century: Does the Canadian taxpayer pay cabinet ministers approximately $9 an hour --in addition to their approximate $5.25 an hour as members of Par- liament--to supervise their govern» ment departments here in Ottawa, or to campaign around the coun try in support of political candi- dates" RADIO DEVELOPMENTS The prime minister and eight of his colleagues were available in Ottawa one day last week, to re- ceive a deputation asking for an end to the Canadian Broadcasting Corporation's monopoly in the field of television This deputation of the president, vice presidents and ten directors of the Canadian Association of Ra- dio and Television Broadcasters represented nearly all the private or non-CBC broadcasting stations in Canada. It urged with reason and elo- quence that private interests should immediately be permitted to set up additional television broadcast- ing stations in Vancouver. Winni- peg, Toronto, Ottawa, Montreal, and Halifax. In these six major Canadian centres, the CBC now enjoys the monopoly: the publie are not permitted any alternative programs for their pleasure, unless they happen to be able to pick up the crumbs from their luckier American neighbors' feast ASK REGULATORY BODY The delegation of the C.A.R.T.B. also raised the point which has been the grossest blot on our-broad- casting picture for two decades. This is the inequity of the Cana- dian Broadcasting Corporation it- self being the regulatory -body which licences and controls broad- casting stations across Canada-- thus being policeman, prosecutor and judge over its own competitors. The government has never been able to, justify its persistent par- tiality in permitting this situation. It does not permit Donald Gordon and his fellow-directors of the Ca- nadian National Railways to regu- late competing railroads; it does not name the president and direc- tors of Trans-Canada Airlines to be the Canadian air transport board and thus control, limit and ham-string other airlines. Why then should the government place the CBC in this favored and unfair position? Cynics may point out that neither the CNR nor TCA are i a position, to give favorable pub licity to the government and un- favorable publicity to its political opponents. Mr. Lester Pearson was one of the cabinet ministers who received this deputation; he commented la- her that the arguments were well reasoned and effective, I hear. It could be that the deputation at last succeeded in sowing the wel- come seeds of democracy of the air waves in the furrowed brows of the prime minister and those eight cabinet colleagues who were present at this meeting. MAC'S MUSINGS It is something unusual And worth while in the Daily life of an editor When he receives letters From readers anxious to Express their thanks for Something which they read In the newspaper and y Which appealed to them, 1t is even more unusual For editors to receive Letters of commendation From organizations and Even individuals for whom The newspaper has given Some special service for Which they are grateful, It seems a bit strange But perhaps it is typical Of human nature that People will write quickly To criticize or condemn The. editor When they read In their newspapers some Item which displeases them Or with which they are Not in agreement, but They rarely think of Writing when they like Som that is printed, Folks are like that, Of course, in that they Take the good things Very much for granted, And accept them casually, But they become verbose And critical when they Read something that is. Not in accordance with Their own thinking. It takes all kinds of People to make a world, However, and we have Learned to accept the Criticisms philosophically And be grateful when Thanks are expressed. PURCHASING?
