Service Here Throughout the year at large pfiblic gatherings in Barrie we have become ac customed to seeing group of men and Zwomen wearing the uniform of St John Ambulance Brigade ready to give on the spot aid to victims of an accident or who become ill February is St John Month in Ontario lts proper title is The Grand Priory in the British Realm of the Most Venerable IOrder of the Hospital of St John of Jer fusalem and its history can be traced back to the year 1099 The active members of St John are vigorous group ready to render first aid at an accident to give assistance at fires and disasters to save nearly drowned child through artificial respiration and to be of service whenever and wherever the need arises These dedicated men and women who proudly serve under the symbol of the eightpointed cross give their time will ineg and without consideration of pay ment Among them are doctors and truck drivers lawyers and farmers factory workers and students housewives and miner all working volunteers for the good of the community in what is prob ably the worlds oldest welfare organiz ation Trouble is reported in Pakistan in the form of the first big opposition to the regime of President Ayub han This op position erupted in East Pakistan soon af ter the arrest in Karachi of former Prem ier Shaheed Suhrawardy last week There has been longstanding under current of feeling between East and Wes Pakistan The East whose capital is Dac ca feels that while it has more than half the nations 90 million people and earns major part of the foreign exchange it has been treated as stepchild Suhra wardy is native of East Pakistan and darrest brought the frustration to as The Pakistani Government whose cap ital Karachi is situated in West Pakistan claims Suhrawardy was arrested for anti Pakistan activities both inside and out side the country but no specific changes have been made public Meanwhile some East Pakistan lead ers are reported talking strongly about the merits of their country becoming separate state At the same time anti Ayub forces in East Pakistan are anx Trouble In Pakistan Today more than 200000 serve in st John Ambulance throughout the world 9000 in Canada and 2850 in Ontario In our province alone this dedicated body of men and women who proudly wear the uniform of St John give freely and willin ly total of 05000 hours of their own St John Ambulance has proud re cord in Ontario Some 88 first aid posts have been set up across the provrnce Where trained personnelare ready to give on the spot aid to victims of highway accldents In the past year at football games par ades exhibitions and fairs the men and women of St John Ambulance have given immediate first aid to more than 25000 persons treating ailments ranging from cut fingers and broken bones to heart attacks In factories the knowledge of St John first aid has proven so effective that it is now provinciallaw that all businesses with staff of five or more have at least one employee trained in first old So this is month for everyone of us to remember and to value the constant careful and unassuming service that the volunteer members of St John give to Barri iously explaining to Americans that there are no Communists involved in the oppo sition and expressing hope the United States would keep hands off and not re spond to any government plea for aid in suppressing Red troublemakers It is also interesting to note that Indian news papers carrying stories of unrest in East Pakistan are being denied entry to the urea Suhrawardy is regarded as strong friend of the United States and the West in general Indians have reason to dislike him for linking East Pakistan with West Pakistan instead of India at the time of independence from Britain And many East Pakistan leaders feel that he was ar rested because West Pakistan felt he was trying to improve the lot of East Pakist an favoring free elections and the end of martial rule The present situation is unclear with indications that much depends upon what happens to Suhrawardy Harsh treatment for theformer premier could solidify the separatist demands of East Pakistan Other Edittjrs Views TRADING

berthed amidships on the lower deck Some of the most famous officers in British naval history including Nel son first went to sea as very young Midshipmen Under naval reform in 1955 Mid shipmen in the Royal Navy ceased to serve at sea The rank lsnow held for only short time while at naval college And this is perhaps the really symbolic death of the rank for it Is traditionally seagoingrank Although the rank is still preserved in this limited sense inthe Royal Navy and is still used as training rank in the United StatesNavy it may well be that it will die in these services as it has died in the Canadian Navy It has been overtaken by the needs of modem naval training where service at sea is no longer enough THE RIGHT TO WORK St Catharines Standard Canadian party leader recently de clared No one in this free country can stop you from going to work if you want to The law prohibits any coercion It is quite true that the law prohibits coercion but it is also true that coercion exrsts in fact Violence on the picket line has been such common occurrence that few employers will hazard the risks of continued operation of struck plant When work continues despite strike more often than not there is covert intim idation of those who go back to work or those who take over the open jobs In only fraction of such cases is the law prohibiting coercion invoked In many strikes no overt coercion is necessary to keep the premises closed down Where worker must continue to be union member in good standing in order to hold job acondition of union shop agreementthe picket line is Virtually impregnable Whether the in divrdual agrees with the strike or not his union membership in good standing is his hostage to fortune It is true that every Ca ian by law has the right to work But it is becoming more and more of qualified right OTTAWA REPORT Average Govt $1324 Per Family By PATRICK NICHOLSON OTTAWA Every spring Parliament examines pmncs and approves the estimates of spending by each government department for the ensuing year Also every spring Parlfn ment debates and approves the national budget incorporating the governments recommenda tions for taxing us sufficiently to meet all or most of those estimated expenditures The governments fiscal year begins April and the esti mates and budget relate to the year just beginning Two years later the govern ment reports to Canadians the details of expenditures actually madein contrast to the ex penditures estimatedfor that fiscal year Thus last week the govern ment published the Public Ac counts of Canada for the year ended March 31 1961 in three books containing more than 1000 pages are five pounds three ounces of statis tics showing expenditures of 5958000000 or $881 for every nann woman and child in Can COST $26 WEEKLY Thus it is approximately ac curate to say that the average Canadian family had to pro duce through direct and indi rect taxes $1324 to pay for the various expenditures by our federal government during that Year What was that money spent on The largest disbursement was to cover the cost of the welfare state in all its ramifi cations In the modern equiva lent of the Romans bread and circuses this cost $2405000 000 The next largest item just over onlddarter of the total was the cost of our national de fence Third me the cost of servicing our national debt half ascostiy as our defence There can be few if any Cana dians who do not approach the federal government with hand stretched out at some time in the year During the 12 months reviewed by these accounts 603000 families received the baby bonus 905000 persons re ceived old age allowances 100 200 persons received old age as sistance 50700 received disabi lity allowances In addition $513000000 was paid out in unemployment bene fits Then there is the huge army of employees of the Big Government of today who cost onequarter of our total budget total of $7970ll0000 was paid tocivilian employees of the tax payer $84000000 to profes sionals for their parttime serv ices $523000000 to soldiers sailors airmen and Mounties OVER AND UNDER PAID The browser especially the experienced browser who knows where to look can find some fascinating contrasts in the Public Accounts For example Canada fspent $1280578 advertising for re emits for our defence forces in 1961 and accepted less than anesthird of tho 13000odd appli BIBLE THOUGHT This is the victory that over comelh the world even our faith John The Gospel of Christ will pre vail against all ils cnemics because it is Gods program Cost cantsa startling contrast to the economies of the press gang and the Kings shilling In the same year our army spent $7 602 for medals and decorations awarded to our soldiers For example again Canadian taxpayers supported to the tune of $46031 our highest paid am bassador Dupuy who rep resents us in France in addi tion we provide him with free accommodation In the form of one of the most magnificent private homes still in such use in Paris In contrast to this one among our 51 heads of diplo matic missions abroad we paid another Canadian $25000 that year for wearing himself to the bone as our prlrne minister Another interesting contrast is the $43714 we paid to our top diplom atlc representative in Britain in salary and enter tainment allowance when set against the$22000 we paid to the Queens personal represent ative as our lieutenantgovernor of Ontario Further we pro vided that diplomat with free home as well as the diplomatic privilege of buying whisky at $l60 bottle and cigarettes at $1 carton of 200 This great assistance in spreading out that handsome tax free diplomatic allowance we foolisth and un fairly do not extend to our less generously treated lieutenant governors Thess account books cost ap

Nationalists are highly vocal group who have failed thus far to elect single mem her to the British Parliament Now they have hit on new gimmick to nrouse the kind of antiEnglish feeling that floun ished when the Scottish clanl fought the English more than two centuries ago They are seeking plebiscite to decide whether Scotland wants to break its political fles At present Scotland is ad ministered ns part of the United Kingdom bound by the rulings of Parliament in London This arrangement has long irked some Scottish patriots who want more controlover their own affairs Among those backing the campaign for plebiscite are Lord Boyd Orr the Earl of Airlie and theVCountess Errol who has the title of Lord High Constable of Scotland They believe referendum would show must Scots wining to cut loose from England PROOF AWAITED The British government is certain to oppose such pleb iscite unless overwhelming evi dence shows demand for it There is nothing in the con stitution to prevent the holding of plebsicite said home office spokesman in London but the government would be unlikely to order special vote on specific domestic issue without extraordinary grounds So far the Scottish home rulers have failed to produce anything like the proof required in London But the Nationalists hope public opinion will swrng their way If the plebiscite ever comes about Scotlands 3500000 voters will be asked to decide what kind of government they want Dominion status such as Canada has would Scot land entirely selfgov gland independent within the Corn monwealth Home rule as in Northern Ireland would give the Scots internal political autonomy but still allow the English to con trol Scotlands foreign and de fence policies There is third choice of courseleaving things as they
