Wilson, Publisher GATURDAY, SEPTEMBER 19, 1964--PAGS 6 'Plan Widely Favored For Youth Parliament * The idea of a Centenary Youth Parliament to be held in the House of Commons on or near July 1, 1967, has sound possibilities, and has een commented upon favorably by 'public men across the country. * Basically, the purpose is to stimulate interest in public affairs on the part of the younger genera- tion, to familiarize them with the national and international problems confronting governments today, and to open avenues of communication. for young men and women who may some day be among those who will shape Canada's policies. It is proposed that for every Member of Parliament at Ottawa there be selected a young \repre- sentative from that member's con- etituency for the Youth Parliament. An essay and pubic speaking com- petition could be used as the basis of selecting candidates. It is proposed, too, that the Canadian Government invite young Arab Front A Nasser dream of an all-Arab alliance to crush Israel is threatened by distrust among the 13 Arab states and by their growing doubts that even with 90 million people on whom to draw they might not be able to defeat 2.5 million-person Ierael's trained and mobile fight- ing force of 250,000. Recollections of the beating Israel has twice in- flicted on bigger Egypt must also be fresh in the memories of leaders of the other 12 countries. The outlook at present is for Israel to continue diverting part of the water of the River Jordan for a huge irrigation project in the Negev desert which when complete would add considerably to its arable lands. Even if the Arabs compose their differences and get on: with leaders from member nations of the © United Nations to attend an Inter- national Young Leaders Conference following the Youth Parliament, These youth delegates could be present as observers at the Parlia- ment after which a "general as- sembly" of all the nations represent- ed could be held for discussion pur- poses. The possibility of touring Canada has also been raised. The objectives, as outlined by William S. Fair, of Saskatoon, a young member of the Centennial Commission who originated the idea and has toured the country in promoting it, are certainly worth- while, It is important, however, that the movement be kept on a level that will not permit of its being exploited for partisan political purposes. Mr. Fair himself is in- sistent on this point, and it is in- deed the only basis on which any measure of success can be pre- dicated, Crumbles their program of damming Jordan tributaries inside their own borders, technicians estimate that this pro- gram would have little effect on Israel for a number of years. The Arab states, which have just ended a summit conference in Egypt, have so far run up against two obstacles: (a) refusal by Lebanon, Syria and Saudi Arabia to admit troops from other Arab countries, mainly Egypt, for pos- sible joint defence against Israel in the war which Arab leaders have said will follow launching of their own diversion program; and (b) advice from experts that before their forces can take on the Israelis they need to be enlarged and to be given improved equipment, Other Editors' Views SWIMMING POOL SCOTCH One of the great arguments of all time may finally be settled now that Inverness, Scotland, admits its water contaminates Scotch whis- key. Scotch and water is a vile con- coction at best, according to many distinguished tipplers. They prefer Scotch on the rocks, or with a dash or two of soda. The Inverness water is worse than most water, by the way. Ac- cording to the clerk of that capital of the Highlands, the water is so bad it tastes like the chlorinated water in swimming pools. It can't be as bad as Scotch and ginger ale, though. We know a love- ly lass who can't stand Scotch un- less mixed with ginger ale. It's too bad she's so beautiful.

The explosion was one of a series being carried out underground now that tests in the atmosphere, under- water and in space are prohibited by international treaty. "Low intermediate" sounds like small stuff -- enough to cause a little jolt and give the atomic scientists some answers, but noth- ing very serious. Yet the term as used by the atomic energy commission means a yield of 20 to 200 kilotons, or the equivalent of 20,000 to 200,000 tons of TNT. And it was bombs of 20 kilotons -- at the bottom of the "low intermediate" range -- that devastated Hiroshima and Naga- saki.

AN ECHO OF 25 YEARS AGO QUEBEC OPINION Bennett Becomes Banker For Poor Provinces This is « selection of edi- torials on current topics, translated from the French- language press of Canada. Trois-Rivieres Le Nouvel- liste--The way things are go- ing Mr. (B.C. Premier) Ben- nett is making himself the banker for the poor prov- inces. It is a kind of ven- geance for the man who hardly a year ago, according to his enemies, was on the verge of bankruptcy. It is pretty rare to see candidates for bankruptcy lend money to others. One could pretend this is a special case and pass it over. That would be too OT) ks 5 There are Quebec citizens who will remember one fact-- that Mr. Bennett is a Social Crediter, that Social Credit has always opposed borrow- ing and feels that money spent on interest of to repay loans should be used for the population's welfare. The deal between Mr. Ben- nett and Mr. Lesage is trou- bling. Some have called it a humiliation. This is not the first one for Quebec. It has a habit of going around on its knees. Mr. Lesage expressed pride in borrowing from Brit- ish Columbia. We cannot blame him. But if he was log- ical he would become a Social Crediter. He would make an effort to pay Quebec's debts as quickly as possible and then begin lending out the money not needed for educa- tion, hospitals, roads and all the rest. It is of little importance to know whether Quebec has. made a good business deal in' borrowing from. British Co- lumbia. What must be known is why this last loan was made. Maybe we will be told that to borrow is to enrich oneself--(Sept. 11.) Sherbrooke La Tribune -- The federal-provincial confer- ence at Charlottetown which resulted in an agreement be- tween premiers on a formula for repatriating the Canadian constitution does not seem to have led:to all the results ex- pected. It may be exagger- ated to talk about a failure but it was at least a semi- failure, .. On his return to Regina, Ross Thatcher, the premier of Saskatchewan, was not slow to say that the attitude of the Quebec premier was an obstacle to settlement of the problem, indicating that Mr. Lesage blocked the agree- ment which the other prov- inces may have been ready to accept.: It. has become a current practice among certain pre- miers after a federal-provin- cial conference to return home and blame one or two of their colleagues and never themselves for failure in ne- gotiations.... It is possible that Mr. Le- sage set some conditions that his colleagues in other prov- inces refused to accept. Act- ing this way, however, he was only doing his duty and it seems unjust to conclude, or to let people believe, that the premier of Quebec has be- come an obstacle to the re- patriation of the constitution. Such suggestions are too frequent amd what is even more serious is that too often provincial premiers prop a- gate them by statements des- tined to help their own pub- licity but which go across the country and create a false public impression. Canadians have a right to- expect a keener sense of responsib'lity among the heads of govern- ment.--(Gept. 8) * criminals, Montreal-Matin -- To judge by the number of telephone calls received at (this) news- paper from people expressing anger about the behavior of certain of our young people, one can only think that the cup overflows and that too much is too much. They any to us: 'Write against violence; flog, punish, demand the rope for the Honest people must be allowed to live in peace, the bandits and loafers must cease making their own laws, the revolutionaries of all varieties must end their vociferating and put a stop to their noise-making." For myself, I'm certainly in favor of that. I'd very 'much like to do my part. By instinct I am an enemy of violence and the demonstra- tion I saw with my own eyes (Sept. 7) in front of the of- fices of this paper (near La- fontaine Park) is not the kind of thing to change my opin- fon. I detest fanaticism under all its guises. I cannot toler- ate hatred--racial hatred or any other forms of hatred. I cannot help shuddering when I see young. people, their faces distorted by I don't know what evil, rip to pieces with their own hands the Union Jack. But it also ts necessary that the parents should do their part. How did it happen that on (Sept. 7) there' were some in that mob of youths who were scarcely 12, 13 and 14 years of age? How was it that all these demonstrators were young-- of school age, I imagine, or university students? Have they escaped from parental authority? What sort of edu- cation do they get at home? . . ."--Lacien Lang- lois (Sept. 9) Montreal Le Devoir -- A committee, says an American humorist, is a gathering of bigwigs who can do nothing as individuals but who come together to decide that noth- ing can be done. One can't help but think of this rather cynical aphorism in reflecting on the decision announced . . . in the Com- mons by Mr. Pearson (set- ting up a flag committee)... Mr. Pearson has agreed to set aside for the moment the particular flag model he had chosen. The prime minister has displayea™"realism: He has recognized his initial er- ror and is unwilling to get bogged down in it. But this concession should not engender any illusions about the fundamental objec- tive (of the committee). Can- ada must be given a distinc- tive national flag--that is, a new one eliminating the in- signia of any past allegiance and incapable of being mis- taken for the flag of any other nation. There is no need at all to start the business again from scratch. The parliamentary commit- tee will be able to reconsider at its leisure the various mod- els that have gone the. rounds in the past few months, It will be free to reject Mr. Pear- son's model. But there can be no question of any model that would in fact be a denial of the basic objective laid down by the government .. . A number of French Cana- dians consider these flag dis- cussions useless. We do not share this opinion. Beyond the choice of an emblem, it is the very con- cept of what we are making of Canade and its future that now is under discussion. It would be cynical or foolish not to consider this fact. That's why, though éasting a cold eye on a Parliament that goes around in circles, we should remember that this Parliament reflects an uncer- tainty and a tortuousness that are ours, Rather than remain aloof, we will try, so long as this questioa remains un- solved, to help the work of finding a reasonable solution. --Claude Ryan (Sept. 12) Quebec Le Soleil--Canada attaches much importance to its relations with Japan. They could be called a constant preoccupation of Canadian policy because of our coastline on the Pacific and the conse- quent presence off our shores of Japanese vessels. This pre- occupation continues, as is demonstrated by the, high- ranking delegation that (went) to Tokyo for a com- prehensive discussion of Ca- nadian-Japanese issues . . .

The fact that many still pre- fer vodka--and in generous quantities--can be grasped sim- ply by walking along busy Mos- cow streets on a summer eve- ning. The number of intoxicated people may give the visitor an exaggerated notion of the drunkenness problem. Musco- vites in a celebrating mood like to get out of their crowded apartments and let off steam in the streets. Thus they are more on display than those, say, in Canada where people are apt to drink and stay at home. 'Nevertheless the problem. is real enough, as Soviet officials - themselves have more than once acknowledged. : Some years ago Khrushchey promoted a drive to lead Rus- sians into the habit of quench. ing their thirst with mineral water in place of vodka, This coincided with his own personal decision to cut down on alco- holic intake. The campaign had more than YOUR INCOME TAX Valuation of Shares Often Poses Woes By WILLIAM C, HALL B. Comm,, CA Valuing shares held in a pri- vate or family company is often a difficult problem facing an individual when arranging his affairs. This type of com- any is popular in Canada; a arge number exist. They are used quite effectively in the formulation of an estate plan as well as in the operation of an active business. Legislation regarding the va'u- ation of shares owned in a pri- vate company is rather general; valuations are complex and difficult. The Estate Tax Act in essence merely states that the rules' which apply to listed securities do not apply to shares of a family company, and that where the deceased along with one or more persons related to him held shares sufficient in number to control the company, then the shares owned by the deceased shall be valued as if they controlled the company unless it is established that the deceased and such one or more persons were dealing at arm's length -- as strangers; the On- tario Succession Duty Act is silent on the point. In attempting a valuation, however, the following rules should be observed: ($) Fair market value at the date of death governs; that is, the objective in valuing the shares should be to arrive at a TODAY IN HISTORY By The Canadian Press Sept. 19, 1964...

De- pending on the particular cir- cumstances of a company, its value may be based on so many times estimated future earnings, liquidation values or a combination of earnings and asset values. Space does not permit us to illustrate a calcu- lation at this time; however, earnings are usually a foremost consideration. Minority holdings are per- haps even more difficult to value. In one particular case, 25 per cent of the shares of a company carrying on the busi- ness of an insurance agency were held to have a value of $750, the remaining 75 per cent were purchased at about the same time for $45,000.

First of all it's date was set- tled at an open, general meet- ing of the provincial party. Then a brand new mode of campaigning was started with the candidates travelling about the province together and ad- dressing joint meetings. This unorthodoxy has carried on into the convention itself. One instance of it was just prior to the convention' when there was an official "nomina- tion day' for candidates. All those intending to contest the leadership had to file for- mal papers signed by 25 back- ers. This had never been done before by any party in Ontario. NEW LOOK This reflects an attempt by the Liberal party to get, not only a new leader, but a new look internally. And it also could reflect a move towa too many cooks in the broth, The big stimulus behind the trend is a desire, with a look over the left shoulder at the N.D.P., to be more of a "'peo- ple's party". Along the line of "democratic decisions" being made in a "'demogratic way" with "demo- cratic' procedures' with a "democratic vote' at a '"'demo- cratic meeting." NO "BOSS" This may or may not work out. ' It might possibly produce a good leader for the party and, eventually it might give it an image with appeal. But at the start at least it has produced mainly confusion and debate--and a strengthened conviction for those of us who believe that even in a democ- racy if things are to function smoothly there must be a@ 'boss'. at the helm, The debate, of course, came from the decision setting the convention date at the open meeting. Normally, such mat ters as these are decided 'by the party leadership or executive. And there are still many people who think the leadership con- test should have been put off until a later date. The confusion was very evi+ dent in the arrangements for the convention itself. There were a number of peo- ple with fingers in the pie, but apparently nobody with a firm hand on the helm, Actually, the impression one gets from the whole Liberal en. deavor has been one of ama- teurism ... of a great many well - intentioned people doin: their best, but with not a re pro in sight. You could get the feeling that it would compare with the exec- utive of the local little league, including the mother's section, being given the job of running the World Series. The writer feels that the greatest Liberal need is for a strong "take-charge" man who can organize and direct all of this well - intentioned amateur ism, 4 PAPER MISSED?
