personages and his experience in world ufv fairs would be invaluable at Washington President Dwight Eisenhower is sorely in need of an adviser who imows his way around and who has some idea of what people are think ing When the present Canadian Liberal leader was Canadas foreign secretary he was one of the strong men at the United Nations He could come up with ideas that had reasonable chance to

may be much as $950 There are also prison terms ranging up to 30 days We have no figures on Ontarios litterbuge but we are in favor of stifif penalties on those who toss bottles that break into thousand pieces and play havoc with tires All To DICTATORS London Free Press There must be some soulsearching in Amerb ca official circles with Menderes following Rhee into oblivion for similar reasons Americans have been more interested in securing the help of strong antiCommunists than in looking for free dom or democracy in thae lands It must be salutary to learn that it is dangerous to lean on dictators FIRM WITH BULLXEI Manchester Guardian In the past when Soviet policy at least appear ed to be flexible and oven conciliatory many people in this country felt that American policy was too rigid But if the Soviet Union intends to bully the West the West must make plain its resolution not torbe bullied successfully Over the past is months the British government has gain ed deserved reputation for supple diplomacy It may now have to earn reputation for firmness in the face of war of nerves Paragraphically Speaking Referring to his outburst at the sum mlt meeting Khrushchev said The United States needed taking down peg or two It is assumed be though the 15 had been flying too high Your chance of being attacked by shark is less than one in million says an icthyologist If you stay out of sizable bodies of water your chance is consider ably less than that According to survey to be made next month the average housewife has used only per cent of the 487 odd recipes she has

LIVE Canada Can Allard To Pay For Bomarc Not Arrow linen SMITH to MY For Simcoe North With the collapse of the sum mit talks the problem of Con adss and the free worlds dc fcncc has again been thrown into sharp focus Asa basis for any Canadian defense discussion certain un changeable facts haveto be rec ognized the first is geographic Canada lies between two giant protagonists in the struggle bet ween Communism ond democra cy United States the leader of the forces of the free peoples and the present leader of the Communist world Russia The second immutable fact is popula tion Canada has population of only 17 million while the United States has 70 million and Russia runny millions more while lurk ing behind Russia and threaten ing her leadership of the Com munist blue is China with pop iliation of over 700 million peop ff war comes between the com munist and democratic ideolog ies Canada cannot help but he crossed and rccrossed by the up posing forces and indeed might very well be the main battle ground It is for this reason that our leaders and indeed all of us feel that every effort must be made to keep ncgotisllng reduce ten sions encourage disarmament and ensure peace in the world third immutable fact is that the world has truly entered into the age of nuclear and atomic power and rockets that will reach even to the moon and be yond With thcso scientific advances our armies will no longer fight war with conventional weapons but with atomic and hydrogen bombs of unimaginable power carried in long range missiles whose range is thousands of roll es The Russians have fired mis sile whose range exceeds 7000 miles and the Americans have one whose range is 9000 miles All this is unbelievably costly and no nation least of all one the size of Canada can afford its own total defence either in terms of physical recourse man power and research or in the free world in terms of financial BCOHFECL Therefore while over search ing for disarmament and peace Canada must ally herself with those countries whose political philosophy is freedom and dem ocracy and since the United Stet or is our closest neighbor and the leader of the free world forc cs it is inevitable and logical that our defenses must be coord inated with theirs TWO FACETS it seems to me that there are two facets of American military policy the one puron defensive that in by radar warning syst cm and antimissile rockets and fighter planes Protection can be given to our country The other view and now posv sibiy the correct one is that rock QUEENS PARK Iixe Fails Again Public Expenditure By DON 03th

residents of VespraTown shipwho are threatened with annexation for the sole purpose of finding place to dump the citys refuse report from the City Development Committee has stipulated that dumping plans will not be car ried out unless it was certain there would be no con tamination of surface or subsurface water It is dif ficult to imagine how this will be possible But what are the alternatives One pbssible solutw ion is the provision of small incinerator units in houses but the argument against this is thet Los Angeles where there are such things attributes its smog to their use THE QUESTION of city incineratorls something that has been bypassed successfully so far Mayor Kinzle has stated that they are not very satisfact ory yet they have been in use in many European cities for many years The claims that the proposed landfill area would be sufficient for the next 25 years merely begs the question It is indicative of the fact that such system is not complete solution to the problem for what is the city going to do 25 years hence True that will be another councils headache but would it not be more satisfactory if we found more lasting solution now We cannot go on annex ing land to dump garbage To say that because the proposed dump will be under city supervision it will be maintained better than the dumps used previously in township areas envisages good supervisory staff and all the neces saray mechanical equipment This is going to cost lot of money AN UNTIL we know the pros and cons of the incinerator system the cost of building and running such plant and its capabilities it is difficult to agree thatllandfili is the only solution the city has for its garbage disposal In the meantime there is the recurrance of ani mosity between township neighbors and city dwel lers This is hardly to be wondered at when the only thing the proposed unncxotion holds for rri is Slightly higiicr taxes and garbage dump on their doorstep log atomic or hydrogen bombs lCBMs atomic submarines to build up huge retaliatory de terrent force MONEY BETTER SPENT This then is the background of the arguments over the Arrow and the Bomarc both of which are purely defensive weapons The Americans who recommend the dropping of the Bnmule do not do so because they feel it is no good but because they feel that as of now defensive wee pan is not what they want and that their money even Amer icans financial resources are not unlimited would be better spent on building up their offensive de ierrent As for Canada the Arrow the Bomarc are weapons deSIEn ed to do the same job having proximately the some capeci and range in defence against manned bombers therefore was largely matter of national pride and cost as to which weapon was develop ed Since no other country even showed any interest in the Ar row should we to sustain our prestige have gone it alone The answer to me is no When the Arrow would have been in production late in 1001 it is probably that the manned bomber will no longer be threat What of the cost For 100 Arrows 32209000000 sum which no country of 10 million can afford and preserve its conomy in peace time it is perfectly true that the Bomnrc too may be rapidly be coming obsolete but the cost to Canada is only minute fraction of the Arrow 515000000 end one we can afford nisromc warms Loko Msgantic in Quebec near the border with Maine wslw iqu crosswi by missionaries so early as 1510 HONEY HARBOUR UP Scientists heard Monday about the possibility of using narcotics for cancer control and of tumor producing potentialities of over cooked food Dr Questei of the McGiii Montreal General Hospital Re search lnstitute presented paper at the fourth Canadian Cancer Research Conference on relatively now finding in the use of drugs for destroying can cer So for the work has been carried out only with animals We have found that certain types of narcotics the barbitur ates can affect tumors the Montreal scientist sold POINT NEW way This is only valuable as pointer towards fresh crop of drugs which might be valuable in this sphere The 60 year old biochemist who developed the weedkiller 0441 said that while the amount of narcotics necessary to destroy the tumor would kill the host animal nevertheless laboratory tests had shown that the drug suffocated the tumor Dr Quasth predicted cure for human cancer would be found within this generation Dr Charles Huggins Halifax bom scientist who first related sex hormones to prostate cancer and developed an uperiilion to re move this type of tumor told of the possible relation between breast cancer in women and overcooked food Dr Huggins head of the Ben May laboratory for cancer re searc in Chicago sold his ex periments had shown female rats can cut in single meal enough cancer producing substance to cause cancer of the breast mnny and the Benelux countrie nre attempting to build com munity This involves an agree ment by members that they will follow the rules to make it work chir goals include the devel opment of common external tariff common commercial pol iclcs to some extent and aboli tion of trade barriers among the members The seven Britain Norway Sweden Denmark Austria Swit zerland and Portugal have agreed to form free trade area This is loose arrangement in which members have agreed to out tariffs among themselves while maintaining their national tariff and trading pollcie for outside nations LITTLE ENTIIUSIASM As The Financialillmos which appears to reflect official think ing says There is no use disguising the foot that for the time being the six and the seven continue to talk to each other in different languages The unwillingness of the six to consider anything but interim measures at this atage in spite of the evident if newly found flexibility of the seven lessen the likelihood that any more dra matic gesture on the part of this country would have any immedv late effect The chances are that an ac tual offer by this country to join the Common Market given satisfactory solution for the other members of the seven and the Commonwealth problem would almost niy have been greeted by the six with little more enthusiasm than they on hlbltcd for the vague proposal that there should be general ne gotlations Fresh Crop Drugs Cancer if rat can get cancer from one meal so can human he said BILE ACID BLAME In an interview he attributed one cause of breast cancer in experimental animals to sub stance knowu as 3MC This is mothylchulanthrene complilt rated chemical extracted from coal tar Dr Huggins said it can also be found in overheated bile acid Bile acid is found only in such foods as liver single dose of 3M0 adminis lured to particular strain of rat caused breast cancer but no other form of cancer It is possible humans can eat substances in food which will set off the cancer processes and cause breast cancer he said Dr Huggins said that while aMC produced breast cancer only in female rats he himself is afraid to eat food fried or baked too much and he does not cut welldone liver Rat tumors are unique in that you can cure them by re moval of hormones on which they depend he said While Ibere wasno such cure for breast cancer in women many women get five to in years of wonderful life through hormone treatments BIBLE THOUGHT Cilviug thanks niweyl for all thinglEnbulaas me Every day should be thankn giving day for
