Page 6 Saturday, August 13. 1 960 Little Interest Shown In Our Defence Policy If the session of Parliament just closed js remembered at all in future years; it will be for its weary length and tire- some debate. How many people can tell even now what was accomplished, apart from the sprightly divorce bill filibuster staged by a couple of CCF members and the passage of the Bill of Rights? Yet there were massive problems to be considered -- the para- dox of unemployment in a growing eco- nomy, for example, and the course Canada is to follow in defence. The session faded to its end with a few members still talking about those two problems, but" they were dying mur- murs, no more illuminating than most of what had gone on before. The debate on national defence came at the tail end of the session, and mem- bers seemed more concerned about get- ting out of Ottawa than about the grave issues involved in defence policy. When a last-ditch amendment to kill the Bomarc-B program was defeated, just before the estimates were approved, only 56 of the 265 members of the Com- mons were on hand to vote. The actual count was 35 against and 21 for. Do most of the members not care about defence and the spending of more than a billion.and a half dollars? Apparently pot. The members may only be reflecting a sort of national apathy. People do become apathetic about apparently in- soluble problems, and Canada's defence dilemma may be placed in that category. There is a feeling of helplessness: the more modern weapons cost, the less Can- ada can afford them. Even so, there were two sharply op- posed policies presented to the Com- mons for consideration, and the mem- bers at least could have thought about them. Defence Minister Pearkes de- fended the government's missile policy, and argued that it would be stupid to acquire weapons designed to carry nuc- lear warheads and not arm them properly -- an argument that suggests that External Affairs Minister Green has lost his effort within the cabinet to keep nuclear weapons out of Canadian hands. The Liberals came out with their own policy: no nuclear weapons for Canadian forces at home or abroad, scrapping of the Bomarc program and acquisition of faster interceptors to re- place the old CF-100 aircraft. The question of nuclear weapons is a vital one, affecting many areas of policy outside defence. It raises ques- tions, for example, of the Canadian con- tribution to NATO. It calls for the fullest discussion. More than 200 mem- bers of Parliament ducked the discussion, and even if they had been present it's doubtful if more than one or two could have added anything worthwhile to the debate. But at least they might have learned something had they been in the House. Security And Danger Can- ada's armed services lay a lot of stress on the security of employment, the fringe benefits and the pensions that loom so large in the life of the serviceman to- day. Perhaps this may be the only way in which to attract recruits. But as a recruiting policy it is not without its dangers. Nor is it without grave dis- advantages for the taxpayer. It was said just the other day of the United States armed forces that "the military life is marked by growing socialism and paternalism, literally from the cradle to the grave." Perhaps Can- ada has not gone quite as far along the road of socialism and paternalism in the armed services as has the United States. But there is evidence aplenty to show that the service life is becoming more and more a life of ease and security. In the United States, for example, part of the cost of the country's defence bill goes to pay for veterinary services for soldiers' pets, and burial plots for the same. Commissaries compete un- Recruiting advertisements for fairly with local retail stores, where military establishments are located close to towns, just as they do in Canada. And chairborne members of the U.S. Air Force qualify for extra pay just for putting in a few hours each month sit- ting in an aircraft. Paternalism is a debilitating political creed at best, for it encourages depen- dence and discourages initiative. Social- ism in uniform, however, even though it goes under the guise merely of keeping the troops happy and contented, is in- finitely more dangerous. Indeed, too much pampering of the armed services could well spell the difference between survival and disaster in time of national emergency. We understand the dilemma of mili- tary authorities. Without conscription, young men must be lured into the armed forces. At the same time, nen must be trained for which dirty, difficult and savage business, handled best by men who are tough in body and mind. Serv.c: war, 1s a Knowledge Of System Judging by the results of an opinion survey conducted by Opinion Research Corporation of Princeton, New Jersey, the average worker in the United States has a might scanty knowledge of the capitalist economy which provides him with the highest living standards in the world. Only one out of every four workers interviewed, according to 'the Princeton study, could explain the meaning of capitalism as an economic system based on private ownership, as distinct from government ownership of business and industry. A large majority of employees had no idea of the meaning of dividends, depletion, productivity, socialism and technology. : he Oshawa Times T, L.

It is sad and dis- quieting that in an age when Com- munists are deluging Europe and the Americas with propaganda about the supposed blessings of state control, many workers in North America should be so ignorant of the meaning of the free market as to be able to form no really objective view on the merits of the dynamic economy of which they form so important a part.

NEW FAST GUN IN TOWN GALLUP POLL Social Credit Given Support By CANADIAN INSTITUTE OF PUBLIC OPINION A strong revival of faith for the Social Credit Party in the West- ern provinces means that today almost twice as many voters in these areas look for the party's re-appearance in the Federal Parliament at the next election than looked for it two years ago. This expectation is not shared by the other regions. In Ontario a smaller segment look for a re- vived Social Credit Party than did so in 1958. Jn Quebec and the Maritimes there is a slightly in- creased belief in the possibility. Social Credit Party Will Regain a place Wil! not Qualified Don't know Outside of the Western prov- inces attitudes cemain much the same as they were two years ago. but there has been a big change The Social Credit Party Will: Regain a place Will not Qualified Don't know It's the same story politically Those who would vote for either Conservatives or Liberals if a Federal election were held to- day, have 'not changed their opinion much in two years. Only about two more voters in every hundred look for a revival of the The Social Credit Regain a place Will not sei Qualified Don't know Summarizitg the series of re- ports the poll finds that less than one in 10 look for Tory gains at the next election, while six in 10 expect them for the Liberals. Party Will: The West, however, thinks dif- ferently. As the final question in series planned to find out what Cana- dian voters looked for at the next election, the Gallup Poll asked a national cross-section of adults this question: "As you may know there are, at present, no social credit mem- bers in the House of Commons.In your opinion what is the future of this party, federally? Do you think it will regain a place as a federal party in the next election or not?" On a national average here is the country's opinion today, as compared to that of 1958.

BUNDESEN, MD JUST ABOUT any house or apartment can be converted into a virtually allergen-free environ- ment. Of course it takes a bit of work or money to do the job. The biggest problem, natural ly, is to filter all incoming air. There are electrostatic filters available for th's purpose, but air conditioners will do the job, too and cool the air besides. AIR-CONDITION BEDROOM If you can't air-condition the entire house or apartment, at least place a room conditioner in the bedroom of the allergy- stricken member of the family It's probably too late to do much about the heating system, but hot water heat is preferable to hot air or open heating de- vices. THOROUGH DUSTING The entire house must be dust- ed thoroughly as often as is nec- essary. That might be every day. U a vacuum cleaner for the floors and dust with damp or oiled cloths. 3 All dust catchers such as up- holstered furniture, rugs, drapes and the like should be removed. Of course, all of these clean- ing operations should be con- ducted while the patient is out of the house, or at least out of the room. Make sure that the patient avoids places that are bound to become covered with dust no matter what you may do. Attics, some shelves, boxes and books are impossible to keep dust-free. Dont' allow flowers or plants in the house. Keep feathered birds and fur- red animals out of the place, too Avoid the use of insecticides and substances with strong odors, such as perfume, camphor, moth balls and wet paint. WHAT TO LIMIT Keep all sources of furs, feath- ers, animal hairs, silk and wool in toys and furnishings at a minimum. No member of the household should use face, dental, foot or body powders containing rice powder, orrisroot or karaya gum, As 1 said, it takes a lot of work to produce an allergen-free environment.

Laws restrict buildings to nine storeys, or a height of about 102 feet, but the Japanese excavate to great depths and add three and, in some cities, five iloors of basements. Since 1955, Tokyo has developed a building boom which astounds visitors. Everywhere in this sprawling city of 9,200,000 people, they see new buildings in various stages of construction. Shift workers toil day and night, weekdays and Sundays. Once the steel framework of a building is completed, workmen can pour cement at the :a'e of one floor a day. The Tokyo metropolitan govern. ment's building section said that in 1958, the latest year for which figures are available, 418.000 tons of cement were used in commer- cial buildings. In the previous vear, the total was 378,000 tens. Nor is the building boom lim- ited to Tokyo. In Osaka and other major cities in Japan, office blocks. hotels, factories, apart. ments and department stores are raising the skylines PARArRAPHICAL wienom © Tomas Morales, Jr., told a Laredo, Texas. jury he. shot his buddy, Reyes Ramirez, Jr., seven times because he "iust wanted to scare him'.

LONDON -- Few events re- cently have aroused as much speculation as the sudden visit of Prime Minister Macmillan and Foreign Secretary the Earl of Home to West Germany for talks with Chancellor Adenauer. The opinion most generally held has been that Adenauer is becoming somewhat alarmed at the moves being made by President de Gaulle of France to secure poli- tical ascendancy over the five other nations of the European Economic Community. With the vacuum which at pres- ent exists in United States lead- ership, President de Gaulle has seized the opportunity to launch the idea of a political secretariat for the Common Market coun- tries. Adenauer does not like the idea. Hence the call of Macmil- lan to come and have talks with him. Adenauer knows only too well that Britain does not want the Europera Economic Community to become a political as well as an economic bloc. Mr. Macmillan told him so quite plainly when the German Chancellor was in Lon- don last year. Now Adenauer is in the same boat as Macmillan, and is believed to be seeking Brit- ish co-operation ir curbing the boundless ambitions of the French president. There is another subject which British commentators would like Mr. Macmillan to discuss with the German Chancellor. That is the huge cost of maintaining the Brit- ish army in West Germany. The Caily Express has taken the lead in insisting that this is some- thing that must be discussed. Jt points out that for every £100 Britain spends on defence, West Germany spends only £43; Den- mark spends £48; Italy, £49; Belgium, £62; The Netherlands, £69; and Norway, £72. France spends 101 for every £100 spent by Britain, and the United States tops the lot at £208. The heavy defence payments by Britain are blamed for much of the balance- of-payment problem with which the British government is con- stantly faced. The Daily Express attacks this subject boldly in the following editorial comment: BY-GONE DAYS 10 YEARS AGO U.S. forces surged ahead 13 miles in the greatest gains of the Korean War to snap shut an armored trap around 1000 North Koreans in the Chinju front deep in South Korea. Henry Hoagluad, Oshawa piano tuner, blinded by pneumonia shortly after birth, celebrated his 21st birthday. Five Oshawa Sea Scouts, Bill Sutton, S.

McLaughlin and a party of GM executives left to fly to London, Ont, to open the new GM diesel plant there. Ninety YWCA delegates from 28 countries gathered at Ontario Ladies' College, Whitby, for a nine-day World Membership Con- ference. Solina Advent Church, over a century old, was. purchased by the Bowmanville Baptist Mission and moved to Bowmanville. GM announced plans for six new buildings at Oshawa, provid- ing employment for 4000-5000 peo- ple, and permitiing resumption of the production of Buicks in Can- ada after 10 years of non-produc- tion.

There is a swift and ob- vious way of dealing with this oa inequality. Bring home from Ger- many the British soldiers who are defending that prosperous land. The troops we sent to keep the German industrial safe -- and busy -- put a burden upon Britain's resources. "That' burden is a handicap fo our goods competing with the Germans in foreign markets, a handicap of which the German take full advantage. End it!" And that is what lies behind the suggestion which is being made that it was time Mr. Mac- millan discussed with Adenauer the question of maintaining a large British force for the defence of West Germany.
