Britain gave Louis burg Cape Breton back to France in exchange for Madras India Madras was city of perha four million people while pulation of Louisburg was about four thousand but it was bad trade because Britain had to send huge force across the Atlantic to recapture Louisburg in 1758 The powerful French fortress had to be destroyed be fore Britain could send troops up the St Lawrence to attack Quebec and capture Canada The trade also annoyed the American colonists who were still British subjects The Americans had provided the land force when Louisburg was captured from the French in 1745 Their money and men had been wasted It was the Americans most of all who wanted to get rid of the French menace in what now is Canada OTHER CT 18 EVENTS 1642James created Order of Baronets of

Affairs Analyst Thomson News Service Three years ago this week Prime Minister Trudeau was in the Peoples Republic of China on visit which could have been called triumphal for him and the Chinese It was the summation of his one and only election promise from the 1968 federal election that he would proceed to recog nize the Peoples Republic of China 0n the third anniversary of that event he was host at full formal banquet in the Great Hall of the People his chief guest being the late premier Chou Enlai Mr Trudeau was in trouble at home then just as he now is Remember the minority government of 197274 That did not impede his progress and success in China in October 1973 Now it is October 1976 and in few days the prime minister is off to Japan under very dif ferent circumstances Indeed the Ja ruse press is wondering why is coming at all given the continuous up heavals in Japans cabinet fol lowing the Lockheed scandals there and the major trade agreement signed between Bra zil and Japan

The richpoor syndrome is aired more and more By AL COLLETTI UNITED NATIONS CP The rich man poor man syn drome is being aired with Eeater frequency within the in national community but gov ernmental decisions to change ï¬e status quo are slow in com At the annual meeting of the World Bank and the Inter national Monetary Fund IMF in Manila earlier this month World Bank president Robert McNamara called on both the rich and cor nations to reach basic un erstandin on the fun damentals involve in trying to eradicate absolute povert in the world before the end the century In detailed analysis of what is required to end the syndrome that perpetuates inhuman deg radation for more than one bilv lion rsons McNamara struck hard the rich countries which he said do not contribute their share of development aid His thesis was that the rich and poor countries first must reach basic understanding of the nature and magnitude of the develo ment problem ac tions nee ed to alleviate it recognition of each others res nsibilities and the costs an benefits to each country taking part NOT EASY TO SOLVE At the United Nations on Fri day Canadian delegate Geoff rey Bruce said that while Mc Namara set

be polite too loudly Mrs Chris de Groot particularly telling way it was not all that easy to solve the problem and stepbystep approach would be more effec tive in reducing the gap be tween the haves and havenots Canada contributes 058 per cent of its gross national prod uct GNP to development as sistance while the United States contribution is only 026 per cent for 1976 The poorest countries have financed almost 90 per cent of their development investments from their own meagre in comes McNamara said The real difficulty the poor est nations face is not the bur den of debt itself but very low level of capital flows to them he said idnt and public institutions cant seem to develop the same kind of consensus which is mark of Brazils current 12yearlong development phase That deal pumped Japanese investment funds into key ex tractive and manufacturing in dustries iron ore steel ship building and agribusiness sec tors In exchange major portion of their future output is guaran teed to

for himself and good deal of that very enjoyable Japanese hospitality The Trudeau Japan trip has been an onandoff affair since the summer with rumors it would be cancelled altogether as result of the Liberal gov ernments domestic decline But it now is on And the prime minister who very much wants to bolster Pacific Rim exports as part of his Third 0p tion program for diversifying Canadian exports

Consumer Affairs Analyst Thomson News Service One Canadian in every three has not made will Putting it another way the provincesand not the individ ual concerneddecide on whats to be done with the pos sessions of lifetime in one third of all deaths Why do people put off making will Perhaps because of the fear of dying Making will neither hastens nor delays the time of death but the task forces le to face fact they may mfunpleasant that nobody lives forever Perhaps because of an abhor rence of legal formalities But if you die without will you multiply the legal formalities confronting your survivors Perhaps for the satisfaction of not paying lawyers bill In fact lawyers fees for drawing up will are not largeand lawyers earn much more for their services in winding up the estates of those who die in testate that is without will Or perhaps its just plain pro crastination Theres always going to be more time next weekbut eventually time runsout Whatever the cause the price that has to be paid for the lux ury of not making will is high one Its not true despite what many believe that husband wishing to pass his entire estate on to his widow can achieve his wish without will as easily as if he had made will The results could be much different than he intendedas for instance when his life in surance is payable to named beneficiary The delegation also included Edson Sithole the factions publicity secretary who dis appeared mysteriously year agoindicating the bishop be lieves he is held by Prime Min ister Smiths government The government has denied this The Muzorewa group said it also would include Rev Ndaba ningi Sithole the veteran na tionalist leader who claims to QUEENS PARK Instant rhubarb followed the poll By DON IIEARN Queens Park Bureau Thomson News Service TORONTO Who gets the TonyBill Stuart or Stephen We desperately need heavy reinif only to get rid of the bloody campers One of the really ridiculous controversies at this centre of often silly squabbles has been running debate on who is the most popular with the public to day Bill Davis Stuart Smith or Stephen Lewis DOG FIGHT The business started when The Globe ran Saturday front page story which reported that it had learned that both the Progressive Conservatives and the Liberals had had polls on the popularity of the three par ty leaders and that Stephen Lewis had come out on top There was an instant rhu barb Not only did the PCs deny they had ever had such poll they even said they had told this to The Globe the day before it ran the story Then Eddie Goodman party sachem wrote letter to The Globe in which he said the writer of the story was liar and for some incom rehensible reason the paper di nt run the letter Following this the incident made the news pages of the other two Toronto pa rs with various arties ca ling The Globe ack kettle and weir dest frivolity of all saying that Stephen Lewis himself had planted the story on the basis of head the Zimbabwe African National Union ZANU if he was not given legal status at the conference Zimbabwe is the nationalist name for Rhodesia Sithole who has said he would not join other groups looks more likely to get an in vitation from the British gov ernment now following requests from the frontline black African presidents so called because of their coun tries proximity to the area of conflict The leader of the other ANC wing ua Nkomo ex pressed sup Friday for the request by R0 rt Mugabe regarded as spokesman for the ZANU guerrillas that the con ference be dela ed Mugabe has said he has ad difficulty getting his delegation together intime Meanwhile an official spokesman in Dar es Salaam Tanzania said today the five frontline African presidents would meet in Zambia Sunday to discuss the Geneva confer ence rumor from member of his caucus Typical of the conflagration when its silliness was at its hei ht Dr Smith came out wit the profound observation that he could play better tennis than either Davis or Lewis WRONG QUESTION The biggest absurdity in the whole affair was that The Globe almost certainly got off on the wrong footright at the start If ere were to be poll or contest on the public accept ance of our leaders it obviously should be taken on their un popularity not their popularity The biggest job that has faced Messrs Davis Smith and Lewis has been in trying to overcome their unï¬opularity Lewis realized is in himself five years ago when he decided he had to go through public personality change if he were ï¬ver to get through to the pub ic The PC failure of last fall was being forecast two years ahead on the basis that it was obvious that the public wasnt buying Davis And though Smith is new boy It has already become clear that the biggest thing he has to overcome is public dis like distrust discomfort whatever word is right Whos for tennis sisj rev
