Mr. Moore also dealt briefly with the problems in public relations that we might come up against as a young nation with many dif- ferent races and religions to Seen Setback To Eden ons will have emigrated to Can- ada, compared with 30,000 in 1955. In the last month, with the Suez Canal blocked, gasoline rationed and talk of higher income taxes, many persons who previously only thought about emigrating finally did something about it. The result: Four to five times as many inquiries as usual at Can- ada's immigration office in Lon- don--a rush of fantastic propor- tions. However, Canadian officials view the post-Suez surge as a somewhat artificial situation. Many would - be immigrants came in on the spur of the mo- ment, officials say. Once they cool down, they may change their minds.

Most significant, according to Canadian counsellors at immigra- tion offices in Liverpool, London, Glasgow, Belfast and Dublin, is the higher calibre of 1956's aver- age immigrant. | He is better dressed.
