Quebec Le Soleil -- Young people planning to study med- icine would do well to think twice.... This year... only 125 of the 504 who applied to the faculty of medicine at Laval Univer- sity will be able to start the course, ... Such is the situation right here in Quebec.

The. education department and he university authorities will assume a mighty respon- sibility if they do not make a greater effort than last year to open faculty doors to aspir- ants. ... These are days of democ- racy in the shaping of educa- tion. We cannot settle for re- strictions of the kind in force in the totalitarian countries, (Sept, 3) Sherbrooke La Tribune--Lu- cien Cardin, federal minister of justice, told the annual meeting of the Canadian Bar Association that Ottawa in- tends to take steps to ensure stricter observance of the Bankruptcy Act. These are glad tidings and, to a certain extent, complete the Quebec inquiry into fraudulent bank- ruptcies. As the act is under federal jurisdiction, it is quite diffi- cult for a province to clean up the situation at home without collaborating with Qttawa.... No one will complain about the ides ° the federal and provinc. x vernments under- taking a joint campaign to fight an efficient war against the debauchery that provoked the flood of fraudulent bank- ruptcies.

The fed- eral department of Indian affairs has refused to allow some 25 Indian students to en- ter Grade 12 in their own st'hool at Qu'Appelle. Citizenship inister Nichol- san says there is insufficient equipment and he speaks of in Colleges is not a new chapter in our history. In the 1860s it took on the proportions of a gen- eral desertion and our prov- ince was deeply affected. This was the rush to American fac- tories, especially in New Eng- land. The spinning-mills and shoe factories attracted our people by the thousands. Public reaction resulted in the toppling of Alexander ackenzie's Liberal govern- ment and its replacement by that of Sir John A, Macdon- ald. Its program of '"'national politics" had swept the coun- try. The tariff wall that Mac- donald erected intensified Canada's industrial develop- ment and protected it against American competition. If this policy slowed down greatly the emigration to the United States, however, it did not stop it completely. The neighbors continued to attract economic prosperity of our Canadians. There was never a com- plete stop to the exchange of citizens between the two' coun- tries. Sometimes it was quite pronounced on the part of the tht» advantage of integrating Indians and whites. These two statements are excuses ravher than evidence, Long | agi the heads of this school ask:ed that it be enlarged and If 'ihe department in charge haé'! acted on the brief sub- mitted py them there would be no problem today.

If it is true, as one high official said, that the In- dian Act gives the federal de- parttnent in charge absolute | authority and allows it to do with the children what it wanti;, then this document only deserves to be thrown in the trash basket. No agree- ment can interfere with the natural and immutable right of paicents in the education of their children, and even less can {t ignore this right. This machiavellian attitude towatd all those interested in this school at Labret, of which they are rightly very proud, is sti¥l:more regrettable as it is a Yoretaste of the fate re- servecl for other institutions.

One can not deny that the United States offers a better future to some Canadian pro- fessional classes. We lose a thousand professionals to the United States every year this way.

CATHARINES (CP) -- Premier John Robarts said Fri- day night Lincoln and Welland counties face more acute plan- ning problems than any other area of Ontario. He said the Lincoln-Welland area is "the outstanding ex- ample in Ontario today of the need for long - range planning for future development on a supra-municipal basis." Both counties need proper municipal planning that would go far beyond the political boun- daries of any individual com- munity and affect the whole of the Niagara Peninsula, Mr. Ro- barts said. : wished, Believing he owed something to those who live in misery, he decided suddenly to go to Africa as a doctor. He stayed there for a half- century. He has been called a saint, an apostle and a missionary. It has been said that by his work he soothed the guilty consciences of the people of the 20th century. His critics were also without pity, picting him as an authoritar- ian and paternalistic "sor- cerer' who in Lambarene spurned the advances of mod- ern medicine, and sometimes | other hand. . im- | (Sept. progress itself, preferring a gasoline lantern to electricity, well water to running water, proudly set against new medi- cines.

Certainly Dr. Schweitzer was paternalistic, treating the natives in a manner which is not tolerated today, some- times refusing contests which could have shaken his top- level position in the small world: of Lambarene, sur- rounding himself with a fable | which nothing could change, | considering the African was not as reasonable as others and that "'for his own good" | it was necessary to keep him as an inferior. This concept, disappearing among whites in the new Africa, does not take away from Dr. Schweitzer either his merits or his glory. It only confirms that he was a man of his era and that times had changed without always reaching Dr, Schweitzer in the jungle of Gabon.

The existing licence used a common argument: The eco- nomic resources of the area would not support another sta- tion, Then Dr. Andrew Stewart, board chairman, stepped in. Did E, A. Rawlinson, operator of a station at Prince Albert, Sask., opposing a bid for a new station at nearby Melfort, know of any case where granting of a new licence had prejudiced the financial position of an ex- isting station? Had any operat- ing station gone broke because of the granting of a new li- cence? eo "That's a tough one, Dr. Stewart," Mr, Rawlinson said after a pause, "I can't say I know. of any that have' gone broke." Would he agree, Dr. Stewart asked, that bankruptcies in the broadcasting field "abnormally tow?" Mr, Rawlinson said this is true, Had the great number of new broadcasting licences granted since the BBG was set up in 1958 resulted in any deteriora- tion in the broadcasting service The premier was speaking at a dinner officially opening the Niagara Grape and W'ne es- tival.

The board's action in stating that CJOR under its present management should be put off the air after Oct. 31 was the se- vate broadcasters were shocked by the death sentence for the station that went on the air in 1926, Proposals for sale of CJOR shares and for the takeover of its 600 frequency were advanced at the hearing and the phrase "expropriation without compen- sation' was used 'several times.
