Wilson, Publisher MONDAY, APRIL 11 1966 -- PAGE 4 | Clue To Counterfeiting In Elizabeth's Portrait Your neighborhood grocer, even though he's known you for years, probably looked suspiciously at that last $20 bill you tendered him. Don't be surprised. A phony $20 could mean a big drop in his week's profits and there have been a vast number of them around recently. An article in the current 2 issue of Maclean's Magazine examines the nation-wide problem of counterfeit bills that has grown up since the development of offset printing in 1959. Last year alone Canadians were bilked of $300,000 in phony bills passed out and police in al] parts of the country seized some $400,- 000 more before they had been dis- tributed. The counterfeiting nucleus of Canada is Montreal and the cur- rent situation is so bad that 25 RCMP anti-counterfeiting experts are kept busy just in Quebec. But at RCMP headquarters in Ottawa the counterfeiting squad is worried that the worst is yet to come. A "series" of bad bills that first appeared two years ago and were judged to be the best ever produced in Canada is still flooding the urban areas. The police say the fake $20s have improved with every reprinting. They are afraid that a master issue of these phony bills -- perhaps worth more than $1,000,000 -- will begin appearing for Expo 67, a counterfeiter's paradise. The RCMP is busy working on a pamphlet that will help both local police forces and the general public detect the fake currency. Mean- while they say, the best way to tell a counterfeit from a good bill is to examine the Queen's portrait. A messy hairdo or an unbecoming droop in the royal lip always be- trays the phony bill. New French Revolution The French Revolution of 1789 is, it would seem, not France's only revolution. In recent years and days there has been. an_ educational revolution which is still in process of development. This revolution is actuated by the ever present and ever-increasing need to provide the nation with the army of scientists, researchers and skilled workers necessary to meet the needs of the atomic age. .

The current program of educa- tional reform disclosed in Paris by Education Minister Christian Fou- chet, recently is reputed to be the first radical re-shaping of the French educational system since the Emperior Napoleon laid down the principles of university education, a long time ago. In France, in common with most European countries, the compulsory study of Latin has been a centuries- old tradition. A first step in Fran- ce's new educational program is to drop the compulsory study of Latin. A second step is to eliminate the "eternal students". These are the undergraduates who hang around the lecture rooms year after year without getting anywhere. Under the new program, future examinations will be much stiffer, and university students will be barred from continuing their courses after two examination failures. Another startling step is to in- troduce a new "master science" degree in the universities. Prac- ticing engineers, as well as profes- sors, will teach at new scientific colleges. qurememneymaicuren apt n e mayest QUEBEC EDITORS COMMENT OTTAWA REPORT Abolitionists Well Organized OTTAWA -- in "a ~weiconie change last week, members of the House of Commons shifted their attention, inside and espe- cially outside the chamber, to a non-partisan topic: Capital pun- ishment. Parliament Hill has long been the scene of a vocal and well- organized lobby py the aboli- tionists. The retentionists have been mute, but seemingly deter- mined, with only the attorney- general of Quebec flying the warning signals. He has not had to underline the signifi- cance of the Dionne child-mur- der and the gangland limepit slayings. The "third force' on Parlia- ment Hill - large enough to tip the debate either way-consists of those MPs who very prop- erly are more interested in the protection of society than in the fate of the murderer. This is the responsible view of those MPs who face their duty unswayed by either emotion or tradition. They think of Canadian boys who would like to serve their community as policemen, but who might be dissuaded by the absence of adequate sanction against armed bandits. They think of our prison warders, such as those in New Bruns- wick, for whom $1,000 a year danger pay was recently sought, against whome "'lifers'" would always enjoy open season. Above all, they think of the young boys and young girls, and of the women of Canada, whose lives might be endan- gered by the presence in our midst of literally thousands of parolled killers. These "third force'? MPs are neither abolitionisis nor reten- tionists. Some of them would re- tain capital punishment for the more dangerous crimes: Trea- son, murder of a peace officer, and ~murder -committed -in the course of another crime such as a bank robbery. But basically their demand is for the protec- tion of society, if a killer is sen- tenced to life imprisonment, that should mean for his life- time, not just eight years. Vividness was lent to the ab- olitionist cause by the aptly- timed resurrection of the Trus- cott case, concerning the 14- year-old boy who seven years ago was found guilty of the sex- slaying of a 12-year-old girl. He was sentenced to death under the law as it then was, but very properly the Diefenbaker government at once commuted the sentente to life imprison- ment. With full emotion-tears on TV and, as one MP told me, a book written from the view- point of an emotional mother- doubts Prime Minister Pearson put the norma! processes of re- view into effect. But meanwhile, two MPs less properly cast doubt upon Can- ada's judicial system which is the creation of Parliament. New Democrat Stanley Knowles an- nounced that the boy "could not possibly have committed the murder' and asked "why was an innocent boy found guilty?" JURY DECIDES Twelve good men and true forming tne jury, with the ad- vantage of a far more intimate review of the crime than Stan- ley Knowles, had determined that the boy was not innocent. The trial judge, and the five ap- peal court judges who later re- viewed the case, were sullied by the attack of Liberal MP Jim Byrne from the Kootenays; he was very properly slapped down by his fellow Liberal Ralph Cowan, and Mr. Speaker Lucien Lamoureux firmly ruled that "no comment should be made which reflects on the judiciary." Huge Green Island Rises Startling Deep In Desert EL FAIYUM, Egypt (AP)-- When Napoleon's troops first glimpsed it after months of campaigning in Egypt's merci- less western desert, El Faiyum seemed a reincarnation of Eden --with the added attraction of cool beer in quantity. The giant oasis of Faiyum, 52 miles south of Cairo, is a huge island of green rising suddenly in the middle of the desert. Graceful palm and eucalyptus trees offer welcome shade from the simmering heat and lush, green farmland stretches on every side of the water which gives it life. Blindfolded oxen turn wooden water wheels today as they have for a thousand years to irrigate the land. A modern asphalt highway bisects farm villages of mud-walled huts on its way to the town of E] Faiyum, a mar- ket centre for the rich produce of the surrounding countryside. Dark-eyed, smiling Egyptian girls work side by side with fel- laheen farmers in the green fields. They will pose for a pic- ture for '"'baksheesh," the Mid- dle Eastern version of a tip. At the edge of this startling green island surrounded by sand is vast Lake Karun, a sparkling blue body of pvater which seems at first glance to be ex- actly what Egypt needs to bring more desert wastes to life On Giser inspection, however, Lake Karun is revealed as a salt lake which covers the bot- tom of the depression that forms the entire Faiyum area. HID FROM MAN Early Egyptians called Karun "the sea" and believed it was the manifestation on earth of a liquid sky in which a crocodile- shaped god hid to escape man- kind On the shores of Lake Karun is an abandoned hotel. Winston Churchill was a guest there dur- ing the Second World War. A large room where he met with King Ibn Saud of Arabia after the 1945 Yalta conference now is covered in dust. Only a small, gold plaque commemorates the state pageantry it once wit- nessed. The town of El Faiym, how- ever, still boasts several small hotels and Egyptians like to go there for rest and hunting in the scrub of the sandy shores of Lake Karun. The native beer which Napoleon's soldiers once gulped appreciatively has been replaced by a modern Egyptian pilsener. a r ea, | 3 AE A TRUDEAU OPPOSES REFORM MOVES Ascent Of Jean Marchand Discreet, Rapid This is a selection of edi- torials on current topics, translated from the French- language press of Canada. Montreal Le Devoir -- The weekend congress in Quebec City of Liberals from the province brought realization of an objective near to the heart of Guy Favreau--crea- tion of a truly distinct body in Quebec for the Liberal party of Canada... . For the moment, two most important: aspects of the weekend ses- sions hold one's attention. We wish to speak of the attitudes of the new group with respect to the problems of feadership and constitutional reform Outwardly, the meeting con- firmed the authority Mr Pearson and Mr. Favreau cur- rently hold in the Liberal party. . . . But the applause won by Mr. Pearson and Mr. . Favreau does not at all wipe out the grave leadership prob- lem facing the Liberals. . . . From the French-Canadian point of view, it is interesting in this respect to note that discreet but rapid ascent of Jean Marchand. The former president of the Confederation of National Trade Unions. did not play a spectular role at the Quebec sessions. At. Ot- tawa since he entered Par- liament, he has also shown himself prudent and reserved. (But) Mr. Marchand has achieved in a few months a remarkable feat: He has won the confidence of his cabinet colleagues,~ the. members of the caucus and even several responsible members of oppo- sition parties. Sooner or later, the pygmies and worn-out men will have to give way to more vigorous leaders if the Liberal party wants to become again a dy- namic force in Quebec and the country... . With a frankness that can only be admired, Pierre Eliott Trudeau in effect set himself up as an uncompromising ad- versary to a reform of the constitution in depth... . We regret the overly cate- goric orientation that Mr. Tru- deau's thought imprinted on the Quebec group's founding convention. In this time of great pojitical fluidity, we would clearly have preferred a more open direction, an orientation which would have permitted the federation to examine without passion, without commitment, the choice of a federalism reno- vated in depth, not only in its structures * There is something artificial and unreal in the complete ad- herence of. the federation to Mr. Trudeau's political theses. The federation will probably be led from within itself be- fore long to vary slightly this attitude taken at the outset when it is a question of to what extent it will truly re- gain contact with the various elements in Quebec... .-- Claude Ryan. (March 29)--It is a sign of the times that the Anglican Church, the closest of the Protestant denomina- tions to Roman Catholicism, has signed at Rome a historic document which anticipates closer and more regular re lations between Anglicans and Catholics in order to initiate a rapprochement which is al ready a reality. There is no exaggeration in saying, as Pope' Paul VI did, that it involves a new step in the de- velopment of brotherly rela-, tions aimed at re-establishing - unity.jn the world of Christian BGs is This rapprochement of Christian churches is a phe- nomenon both spiritual and material and quite character- istic of our times. Peoples who formerly considered themselves hereditary ene- mies have made peace and are co-operating. .. . How could it be otherwise in the case of churches, even if they have also considered themselves enemies in the past The development of transport and communications has the effect of spreading human solidarity. From the spiritual point of view, the expansion of materialism and new forces of atheism are forcing spiritual families to make a common front. Without doubt, it is only better dialogue between Cath- © olics and .Anglicans. Differ- ences in theology and doctrine remain between them. But the event that took place at Rome could well be the prel- ude to this vast reconciliation of the world of Christianity which. has been maturing rapidly since the (ecumeni- cak) council. (March 25) Quebec Le Soleil--Premier Jean Lesage followed rather extraordinary procedure when he presented to the Legisia tive Assembly a bill whose effect will be to annul an or- der of the public services board concerning the sale of the Quebec Telephone Co. (to the Anglo-Canadian Telephone Co.) He justifies this intervention by citing irregularities com- mitted by this government body, irregularities which would have prevented those who wanted from making rep resentations to the board he fore it rendered its decision If there was an error, in procedure, the intervention of the government is justified, even if in current practice things are not usually so for- mal For all practical purposes, the transaction will have to be begun again if the two parties decide to follow through. The Sogebry group (owners of Quebec Telephone) will have to make a new re- quest to the public servites board and the law will follow its course. You can rest assured that the sittings of the board will be closely followed by all the information media and by the public. No doubt there will be groups which will make rep resentations for or against the transaction, for the public has already been aroused by the whole business. Le Rassem- blement pour l'Independence Nationale was the first to protest against the transac- tion. It reproached the gov- ernment for having done noth- ing ... to prevent a French- Canadian enterprise from, passing into the hands of for eign capital. That was how the affair rebounded before the public and the legislative assembly. It is the whole question of economic nationalism that is being posed. To what extent can the board take ideological considerations into account in its decisions without exceed- ing the limits of its jurisdic tion By using 'motives inspired by economic national- ism as a guide, is the board ~ not assuming a responsibility that does not belong to it, a responsibility much more in the province of the govern- ment It is urgent that the govern- ment proceed with a study of government boards in order to reform them as necessary. ee ee THE NEW BUDGET'S SHARP FEATURES sree reer HN CANADA'S STORY Louis Was Weary By BOB BOWMAN Britain and France fought each other so often between 1600 and 1815 that is is difficult to keep all the peace treaties straight. On March 29, the Treaty of St. Germain-en-Laye was described. Charles I gave Canada back to France in order to collect the rest of Queen Henrietta Maria's dowry. That was in 1632. The situation was somewhat reversed on April 11, 1713, when Britain and France ended an- other war by signing the Treaty of Utrecht. It had taken 15 months tp negotiate and follow- ed the loss of one of the great- est military expeditions ever sent out by Britain. Sir Hoven- den Walker, by a mistake in navigation, had wrecked -his ships on the north shore of the Gulf of St. Lawrence. It might be thought that France had Britain over a bar- rel, but France had grown weary of war, and of Canada. Although Britain had lost a mighty fleet trying to capture Quebec and Iberville had cap- tured Newfoundland and Hud- son's Bay, Louis XIV made con- cessions. He returned New- foundland and Hudson's Bay to Britain, and also ceded Acadia. This was the area now com- prising New Brunswick , and Nova - Scotia, except for Cape Breton Island, which France re- tained. France also kept the Island of Saint John, now Prince Edward Island. Historians say that the Utrecht was the forerunner of France giving up her North American colonies _ entirely. Fifty years later France, with little regret, yielded Canada to Britain, and Louisiana to Spain. TU a TODAY IN HISTORY By THE CANADIAN PRESS April 11, 1966... The treaty of Utrecht, signed 253 years ago today --in 1713--cleared up a hést of disputes between Britain and France and marked victory for England in the fight to prevent Spain and France from amalgamat- ing. France ceded Hudson Bay, Acadia and Newfound- land to Britain, retaining only St.. Pierre - Miquelon and Cape Breton. Spain ceded Gibraltar to Britain and granted a 30-year con- tract for the slave trade. Louis XIV of France also gave up support of the Stu- art claim to the English throne. 1903--Sydney, N.S, was incorporated 1921 -- Iowa applied: the United States' first ciga- rette tax. First World War Fifty years ago today-- in 1916 -- British and Cana- dian troops resumed at- tacks on German - held craters at St. Eloi; Ger- man units attacked Ypres; Allied forces occupied Ce- phalonia, an island in the Ionian Sea. Second World War Twenty-five years ago to- day--in 1941--the German invaders of Greece linked up 'with the Italian force in Albania; six German raid- ing aircraft were shot down over Bristol; British troops in Libya retreated. In those days Louisiana includ- ed territory extending to the Pacific. Louis XIV was_ half-hearted about the future of Canada. His purpose in retaining Cape Breton and the Island of Saint John through the Treaty of Utrecht was to guard the en- trance to the St. Lawrence River: Therefore he wasn't en- tirely prepared to abandon Can- ada at that time. Britain getting Acadia was due to pressure from the New England colonies. They wanted the French out of Nova Scotia entirely for purposes of safety and of trade. A few years later a force from New England took matters into its own hands and captured Louisburg! ri oT rng regan in i ven OTHER EVENTS ON APR. li: 1617--Champlain sailed on 8th voyage to Canada bring- ing Louis Hebert 1680--S ioux Indians captured Father Hennepin 1768--Montreal badly damaged by fire | 1827--Meeting at home of W.

The people of Amritsar today speak hopefully of "'permanent friendship" with the Pakistanis. A goodwill team is awaiting permission to visit Lahore, Pak- istan's biggest city, just across the frontier. Pakistani prisoners - of - wat and civilian refugees were given a warm send - off on a sunny morning recently. Many of the Indians were in tears. One turbanned Punjabi Hindu embraced a fierce - looking Pathan fruit merchant from Pakistan's North-West Frontier province and said: 'Please come back soon. We are all brothers." Yet only fast autumn India and Pakistan were fighting a full - fledged war. Even as re- cently as January, India and Pakistani politicians were warn- ing their peoples that the Sept. 23 ceasefire arranged by the United Nations might go up in smoke at any time. This remarkable transforma- tion in the relations between the two Asian neighbors--both members of the Commonwealth --is attributed to what has come to be known in the subcontin- ent's political dictionary as the "Tashkent spirit." A new hunger for mutual un- derstanding seems to be flow- ing from the agreement signed by Indian and Pakistani states- men in the Soviet city of Tash- kent at the beginning of this year. ; DECLARED INTENTIONS Aided by Soviet mediators headed by Prime Minister Alexei Kosygin, President Ayub Khan of Pakistan and the late prime minister Shastri affixed their signatures to a, solemn declaration dedicating the two nations to peaceful methods of resolving differences. The Tash- kent agreement also called for the speedy restoration of nor mal diplomatic and economic relations Prime Minister Indira Gandhi, who succeeded Shastri after his sudden death at Tashkent, has pledged all-out Indian support for the Tashkent agreement The last few. weeks have shown that the two neighbors are serious about implementing the letter and spirit of the rec- onciliation proposals. All troops and military hard- ware have been moved to pre- war positions. The disengage- ment operation was carried out without a single incident. This contrasts with the hundreds of border violations which followed the Sept. 23 ceasefire. Before pulling back, Indian and Pakistani soldiers repaired mosques and temples with their own hands as a symbolic ges- ture of friendship. A handsome Maratha cap- tain from Bombay told this cor- respondent how he and three other officers, assisted by 50 men, repaired the prayer hall of a Moslem shrine in a war- ravaged Pakistani village. "Being a Hindu--my family is very orthodox -- I had never stepped into a mosque before," he recalled. "I remember my mother once spanking me for playing with Moslem boys. OTTAWA REPORT Guidelines Needed For Emplovees BY DON O'HEARN TORONTO -- Is management responsible to workers dis- placed by technological pro- gress? There havé been indi- cations that one day soon we will know what the government here thinks about this. Labor Minister Leslie Rown- tree told opposition members his department was studying the question and that he would have a statement to make on it The statement, of course, will be one of the important de- velopments of the current ses- sion. Relocation of workers is a growing problem now and could be a critical one in the future. And at present the. question of responsibility -- as between the workers, the community and in- dustry--is very much up in the air. Guidelines will be valuable. EXPECT LONG SESSION Indications are that the ses- sion will last at least a couple of months after it starts again following the Easter break. There are some optimists on the government side who hope- fully talk of an end of May windup. But they appear to be dream- ing. Most of the major esti- mates, such as education, mu- nicipal affairs, agriculture and the attorney - general, have yet to come before the house. And controversial legislation, sucy as the retroactive meas- ure on pensions of municipal employees, is still to be intro- duced and argued. There is a federal - provin- cial conference at Victoria start- ing June 2, and presumably the government would like to have this a target date for proroga- tion. But its chances are slight. The days will probably be hot and long before the lieutenant- governor finally sends the mem- bers home. CHANGE AID FORM As you probably have noted there is to be a change in the form of assistance to university students by the province in the future. Essentially, the change is that in future the government will give partial gramts to all students requiring aid. Until now, students who haven't won bursaries or schol- arships and who have required financial help have had to take out loans from the Student Aid Fund. . In future the assistance will still be given through the aid fund, but the government will contribute part of the amount as a gift up to 40 per cent, de- pending on the need). This new position is a com- promise between. 'the thinking that advocates free university training and that which has pressed for loans. Few Clues Seen In Jenkins Case DEL MAR, Calif. (AP)--A let- ter from her boy friend has of- fered few clues to the disappear- ance of the 15-year-old heiress to part of the J. C. Penney for- tune. The letter to Edith Angelia Jenkins was given to the sher- iff's office Wednesday after dep- uties revealed she had been missing from her Del Mar home since March 25. The letter, allegedly written by Don Collins, 19, of nearby Cardiff, was dated March 23, from Cardiff. Collins also is missing from his home. It told of the writer's bore- dom andunhappiness, and ended with 'Don't forget that I love you with all my heart and I miss you very much." Edith is the granddaughter of Mrs. Daniel Jarman of Salem, Ore., widow of one of the found- ers of the J. C. Penney stores. She will inherit almost $2,000,- 000 when she is 18. Plus!
