pearaacs are deceptive When Russell celetrates its 150th anniversary in March it will look back on hectic past Once it was the wickedest town in the world0nce it was the capital of New Zealand Once it saw some of the most desperate fighting of the Maori wars The population at Rusell today is it is picturesque little town centre or the big game fishing boats that bring back iightingswordiish and mako shariu Only an ancient building or two bulletscarred church and few plaques point to its place in history MAORI SITE Russell stands on the site of Maori settlement called Kororar eke it was by many years the first place of white settlementIa New Zealand Whalers chose it as their oii season haven because at its sale harborng anchorage and plen tiful provisions and water Many ships returned

the Manitoba Maple arrived East as towhe4 ther it is an asset or mnuisance True it is wonderful for quick growth in newly settled subd1v isioas and brings welcome shade inibut few years time but spreads fromfallen seed and root and must be kept down Despite this however it is reality wonderful as winter oasis for seedesting birds in migration This year they seemed to stop for longer periods than usdal probably because of more ieqding trays and feed At Minets Point it has been tbé area near the flowing well which runs fromthe home of Fred Piiher as an overflow to an open tank beside

years it has come to be more or less tacitly accepted here that the defence budget should remain in the neighbor hood of 31700000000 This figure used to represent about onethird of all federal spendingbut the proportion now is not much more than onenuarter With ceilingon defence spend ing the defence planners obvi oust cannot carry out all the equipping program they would like to at the same time Thus the system of priorities Home air defence likely will contian to be expensive even if anti aircraft missiles supplant manned interceptors in the next few years And alter deienee against the bomber and air breathing missile must come defence against the intercontinen tal ballistic missile The primary object in antisub marine capability in the words of Defence Minister Pearkes is systemto detect and track sub marines comparable to the radar system which detects and plots aircrait POLICE FORCE ONLY The armys weapons priority is low because its role is still not clear it is thought of hereand is tending to think of itselfas police force held in readiness for United Nations duty There is one aspect of defence thinking here that has received little attention so far This is that Canada rnlghtbe better advised to convert more and more do fence spending into economic aid for underdeveloped coImtries In this way it could make more worthwhileand more lasting contribution to
