Page 6 Thursday, January 31, 1957 Dulles Again Opens Mouth And "Puts His Foot In It' United States Secretary of State John Foster Dulles is an unfortunate individual. He has the unhappy knack of gaying the wrong thing too much of the time. In other words, far too often "when he opens his mouth he puts his foot in it," to use an old say- ing. He has again aroused the ire of the British and French press and the people of these countries by a highly offensive reference to British and French soldiers. * Speaking before the United States foreign relations committee, Mr. Dul- les said: "And personally, as things are today, if I were an American boy, as you put it, going to fight in the Middle East, I would rather not have a Britisher and a French- man, one on my right hand and one on my left hand. I think I would be a lot saf- er under different conditions from that." We will at least do Mr. Dulles the courtesy of saying that we do not think he intended that statement to stand just as it was. The plain words of it constitute what seems like a de- liberate insult to the armed forces of Britain and France. But Mr. Dulles has neither withdrawn the statement nor has he apologized for it. He has not even given any explanation on his own behalf, but has left Washington offi- cials to try to explain it away. We do not believe Mr, Dulles intend- ed to insult the soldiers of Britain and France in the statement he made. If he did, then he is even more unfitted for the post which he holds than we for- merly believed. There is no excuse, however, for a man holding the high position which he does in the public life of the United States, indeed, of the world, to be so loose in his use of words as to convey an insult, even if it was not intended as such. It will require a good deal of explanation -- and from Mr. Dulles himself -- to soothe the ruffled feel- ings of the British and French people over this remark. Further Aid For Education In his recent address to the share- holders of the Royal Bank of Canada, James Muir, president of the bank, had some worthwhile things to say , ,/sbouk the educational crisis in Canada. This crisis, he said, was primarily an economic crisis, represented in the need for expansion of schools and equipment, and in recruiting and train- ing staff for schools. In the latter con- nection, Mr. Muir stressed the finan- eial plight of the teaching profession, in the following words: "The lo position of all teachers bad deteriorated relative to other profes- sions of comparable training and respon- sibility, and relative to the working force as a whole. Thus, the teacher today finds himself in the same occupational 'depressed area' which he occupied as long ago as 1776, a member then, as now, of what Adam Smith called 'that unprosperous race of -~ Lan mm Ald mmm ol Lakbament We a with Mr. Muir that there #8 an economie crisis in education. But being taken to deal with that crisis have mostly been directed at the uni- versity levels of higher education. Fed- eral and provincial governments are prepared to be generous in their aid to such institutions, but they overlook en- tirely that there is just as great a need for solving the economic crisis at the elementary and secondary school lev- els, Since the elementary and secondary schools are the training grounds from which university students and gradu- ates must come, it is essential that they be given much greater govern- menal assistance than is the case to- day. The burdens being borne by pro- perty taxpayers are indeed heavy, and these have to be reconciled with the needs of teachers for higher salaries and the school requirements of muni- erpalties. "True, the universities need all the help they can get, but the plight of the elementary and secondary Wop tortunately, the measures which are schools must not be overlooked. h Assistance To U.K. Emigrants The British parliament is in the pro- sess of passing legislation which will continue and extend the Empire Settle- ment Act, an act under which assist- ance is given to British people wishing to migrate to certain of the common- wealth countries. This assistance, which has been in existence for the last five years on a limited scale, takes the form of paying part of the trans- portation of emigrants going to coun- tries within the Comonwealth. Unfortunately, this scheme has nev- er applied to immigrants coming to Canada from the British Isles. It was ed generously to assist those who he ge heading for Australia and New Zealand. Between 1951 and 1956, 140,- 000 migrants going to Australia under the Empire Settlement Act went on as- sisted or free passage plans. New Zea- land also received a very substantial number of assisted immigrants. So far, however, the only assistance forth- coming for those headed for Canada {a that which is tendered by the Cana- Other Editors' Views NO ESCAPE (Ottawa Citizen) What's the use of moving out to the suburbs, when a couple of mornings after you've built your bungalow you wake up to find that the suburbs moved farther out during the night, leaving you camparatively downtown again, en- gulfed in the traffic jungle you tried to escape in the first place!

There is now an indi- cation from offical government sour- ces in Britain, that the plan is to be extended to Commonwealth countries not now covered, and that might well include Canada. Another interesting proposal .com- ing from London is that an arrange- ment be made for some form of recip- rocal agreement regarding pension rights and other benefits for persons moving between the two countries. Australia and New Zealand already have this type of reciprocal agreement, and it would be a great help to migra- tion if Canada has a similar plan. With so many British people anxious to come to Canada, the government of this country might well approach the British government in connection with both the above-mentioned schemes. If they can be applied successfully to mi- gration of Britons to Australia and New Zealand, there is no reason why equal privileges should not be available for those desirous of migrating to Can- ada.

This has grown faster than the cost of any other federal depart- ment over recent years. Two years ago, it was nearly $44,000,- 000; but this coming year it is estimated to total over $58,000,000 --an increase of 33 per cent in three years. Canada maintains diplomatic staffs in 45 foreign countries, and at various international organiza- ions such as UN and NATO. hase: missions range im size from persons in Britain, to five in Uruguay. The cost of operating these missions ranges from $728,356 for that in France, with its staff of 59 persons, to a mere $41,398 for the staff of five in Uruguay. Our department of external af- fairs employs nearly 2,000 men and women, including local help such as typists, gardeners and chauffeurs in foreign countries. The operational kernel of this staff consists of some 320 "foreign service officers." These are our career diplomats. They are norm- ally selected by competitive ex- amination after graduating from university, and join the depart- ment as Grade One officers, paid from $3,900 to $4,800 per year. BRIGHT FUTURE With good luck and good man- agement, the young entrant may climb the ladder grade by grade until he reaches the ambassador- ial level, roughly grade 8 ($11,000 per year), Grade 9 ($12,000) and Grade 10 ($13,500). Sometimes these top posts are filled by po- litical appointees rather than by career diplomats. Th two plums hanging even higher up the salary scale are the Ottawa posts of under-secretary of state for external affairs, namely deputy-minister, ($18,500) and dep- uty under-secretary ($15,000). Salary alone however is not the only resource available to our for- eign service officers in their life- long struggle to keep the wolf from the door. Each may expect to spend approximately half his diplomatic career representing Canada abroad. As soon as he goes overseas to enter the mar- tini circuit, whether as ambassa- dor or as third secretary, he has FOR BETTER HEALTH to keep up with Monsier Jones, Senor Jones, Mohamed El Jones and all his other fellow diplomats from other countries. So every member of our diplo- matic service draws a representa. tional allowance or, as it is offi- cially called, "allowance for living expenses including costs of repre- sentation," while posted abroad. This allowance is designed to en- able our diplomats to live in fore eign countries in the standard which we like those countries to consider as the Canadian normal --as misleading' as judging the i tandard average American living s ard ance is also intended to defray the cost of that occupational hazard of all diplomats--namely winin and dining other diplomats on native celebrities. INFLATION THERE In addition, our foreign service officers while in certain countries draw an 'allowance to meet higher costs of living abroad." This scale of allowances sives a combination view of the diplo- matic importance and economic inflation of foreign countries. For example, our ambassador in Eire, which our government insists upon incorrectly naming "Ireland," last year received $11,000 in salary and $5,112 in allowance. In few countries outside South America did the ambassador's allowance total less than his salary, while in 100 countries it soared to néarly e. For example, Ambassador Arn- old Heeney in Washington drew $13,500 salary and $24,996 allow- ances; High Commissioner Nor- man Robertson in London drew $13,500 and $24,192; and Ambas- sador J. Desy in Paris drew $13,- 500 and $27,980, apparently indi- cating that we rate it important to put up a good front in France, and equally indicating that the French have to pay highly for their pleasant standard of living. In addition to maintaining em- bassles and similar offices in many countries, our department of external affairs also maintains a fleet of cars. Last year it spent $81,202 at General Motors, Oshawa but only $22,940 at Ford in Wind- sor, a compari¢on which might or might not indicate the official view of the Camadian car which best keeps up with the foreign Joneses. Alcohol And TB Make Hazardous Combination HAERMAN N. BUNDESEN, MD We've all heard the warning that alcohol and .gasoline don't mix. Safe driving campaigns are continually making the public more conscious of this fact. Unfortunately, however, alcohol and tuberculosis do mix -- all too easily. This is a problem of which very few persons are aware. STEM THE TIDE The rate of alcoholism among tuberculosis patients is much greater than the TB rate among the general population. And un- less we can do something to stem the tide, this proportion will con- tinue to increase In fact, Dr. Dan Morse, super- intendent and medical director of the Peoria. Illinois, Tuberculosis Sanitarium, reports the problem is rapidly becoming one of the most important deterents to effec- tive contro of tuberculosis If we were to stamp out all but one cause of tuberculosis in your community, chances are that the sole remaining victim would be an alccholic MUST REFORM Studies show an alcoholic cover completely, forms Dr bluntly "The alcoholic with tuberculosis who continues his alcoholism ' al- most always ends up with the undertaker An alcoholic with shat seldom does with tuberculosis re- unless he re- bit Morse put it a more tuberculosis "presents a serious problem to a community Because he is an alcoholic, he will seek friends who are apt to be alcoholics. And since severe alcoholism interferes with proper nutrition and lowers resistance to all diseases, his drinking com- panions are extremely vulnerable to infection, too. What can we do about problem? Dr. Morse advocates compul- sory Isolation of all alcoholics with tuberculosis in a contagious stage who do not voluntarily iso- late themselves.

This attitude is a definite change from 30 to 40 years ago NEXT GENERATION "Perhaps we need to retreat a little.

BYGONE DAYS 35 YEARS AGO The members of the Oshawa Hunt Club had as their guest Capt. John McIntosh, who for many years had transported the men in his tug, "the Elsie Mack" down the French River to their hunting lodge for the annual deer, moose and bear hunt, He was gues. ul the club to a theatre party at the Regent Theatre, fol- lowed by a sumptuous dinner at Welsh's Parlors. Members of the Club present for the occasion in- cluded President W. A. Coad, Mayor Stacey, Walter Stacey, W. P. Knight, Dr. Trewin, Sam Trick, Thos. Gale, W. Holland, Fred Spencer, C. M. Mundy, W. Armour, L. Gifford, A. Germond, Fred Bailes and George Miller. Oshawa Rebekah Lodge No. 3 held a most successful pro- gressive euchre in the Oddfellows Hall with a large number pres- ent, being about thirty-two tables playing.

If you can, then you are very much in the minority. That is the conclusion that has to be reached on reading an article in the February issue of the Reader's Digest, It is en- titled "Which Kind of Gambler Are You," and it is written by Robert L. Hellbroner. Let us say at the outset that it deals with gambling in the United States, and its conclusions might not ne- cessarily apply to Canada. And the writer hastens to add that, in spite of the evidence presented, Jmericais are nok necessarily to 1d " 11 ed a people. Here are some of the facts that are related in the article, A Gal- lup Poll taken some time ago re- vealed that 57 per cent of adults gamble at one time or another, The annual sake from slot mach- ines in the United States is a bil- lion dollars, and that means the amount the operators collect from the back of the machines. It is estimated that between 20 and 25 billion dollars go into organized gambling. Raffles and bingo leave the starting gate . . . The slot 'machines are regularly set to give those who play them as little as 20 cents on the dollar. The numbers game, where your mathematical odds of winning are usually one in 999, pays out ai only 40 to 60 per cent of that ration to a winner." The conclusion of the article is that the habitual gambler is a sick man, from the standpoint of a famous psychoanalyss. The five of the sick gambler gamse boost the 1 total to close to 30 billion dollars, Yet the gambling eraze in the United States, and in Canada, is not %0 be compared with what it is in many other countries. Most Latin-American govern- ments help to finance their gov- ernments by means of lotteries. Turkey uses them to support welfare projects, Sweden to fin- ance cultural aciivities and France to help to balance the na- tional budget. Norway, Russia, Holland, Belgium, Greece, Italy, and Japan all have national lok teries, and Britain's new bond- selling scheme also comes with- in that category. In fact, gamb- ling is a big business in Britain, with over 70,000 employees, Mr. Heilbroner uses his arti- cles to give specific warnings to the public that in all gambling, the odds are very much against them, This is what he says: "At the race tracks, where you make legal bets through parimu- tuel machines, the track and the state take from 10 to 22 per cent of the money before the horses are: 1. He habitually takes chances, as contrasted with the - time-to- time chance-taking of the normal man. 2. Gambling is the focal point of his life, 3. He never learns from experi- ence. won, 4. He never stops when he has 5. He finds the thrill of gam- bling in the pleasurable-painful tension of waiting. The point of Heilbroner's arti cle is just this--Run a mild gm- bling fever if you must, but don't get sick. The article ignores, however, the whole moral issue that is in- volved on gambling, the tense feverishness which accompanies the desire to get something for nothing. In that respect, gambling is a moral disease which saps at the moral fibre of the individuals who become addicts to it." But just the same, the rticle does point up the folly of gmbling -- even to those who my occasion- ally be winners, QUEEN'S PARK Liquor Body Has Man Of Mystery By DON O'HEARN Special Correspondent fo The Daily Times-Gaweble TORONTO--There's a man of mystery on the liquor licence board. Appointment of James M.Gil- bertson, replacing John F. White, was announced last week.But no one seems to know why he was put there. He isn't known at all in polit- ical circles. Liquor interests are just as curious about him as anyone else. And though Mr. White was generally looked on as the temperance advocate on the board there is no known tle of Gilbertson to this field of thought. All that really is known about the new member is that he is a retired oil company executive. The gossip is that he was a strictly personal choice of Prem- fer t. No other fingers were let in the pie as a protection against future hanky-panks. DRUNK TESTERS And a liquor item that should hae been noted before: "Breath- alizers" have been given an of- ficial O.K. But it was only after many pulls on conscience that At- torney-General Roberts gave ap- proval for their use for magis- trate's courts, The danger is, of course, that the use will be abused. The instru- ments show the proportion of al- cohol in the blood. But one man will be drunk with a certain per- centage while another will be sober. For this reason Mr. Roberts has ruled the only official use be to prove sobriety. And tests are to be taken at the option of the ac- cused. Restrictions like this can easily slip, however. Some over-eager police and a narrow magistrate, and the original intent can be overlooked and the breathalizers used for prosecution. And once a wedge is in with this type of thing it doesn't take long to make an opening. SERIOUS DISEASE The health department doesn't seem to be overly Beriurbed about H halitis, the that has been mistaken for polio. But to the layman it looks ser- fous. The disease paralyzes, as polis does, and generally seems to be as serious.

Canada To Safeguard Israel OTTAWA (CP)--Canada's main object in the Middle East is to safeguard Israel's borders from Arab raids and ensure use of the Suez Canal by all countries, in- eluding Israel. That policy, matching United Nations objectives, was outlined in the Commons by Prime Min- ister St. Laurent. He sald the "only alternative" would be renewed warfare if Egypt resists achievement of those goals. Mr. St. Laurent spoke as the House considered a $1,000,000 Canadian loan to the UN to help pay the cost of clearing the canal of sunken obstructions. He said Israel must withdraw its troops from the Gaza Strip and the Aqaba Gulf, but there must be no return to conditions which existed before Israeli troops marched into Egypt's Sinal Penin- sula in October. BRINGING PRESSURE Many countries were bringing pressure to bear on all parties to ensure that pre-invasion conditions are not resumed. He mentioned specifically the Arab border raids and indirectly Egypt's refusal to allow Israeli ships through the canal. "If Egypt resists the only al- ternative would be a resumption of hostilities," Mr. St. Laurent sald . The advance for the canal-clear- ing job was criticized by the op- position, mainly on the ground that since Egypt caused the ob- structions it should pay for their removal. In effect, opposition members claimed, the fact that the UN is paying for the work is another feather in Premier Nasser's fez. Howard Green (PC--Vancouver Quadra) described the blocking of the canal as 'the most malicious National Gallery Spending $920,371 In Single Year OTTAWA (CP) -- Canada's Na- tional Gallery had what its offi- clals term "perhaps the greatest' year in its 76-year history. Sparked by Brantford-born Alan Jarvis, who became director in April, 1955, the gallery last year paid $920,371 for Canadian and uropean paintings, sculptures, prints and drawings. Some $850,000 of the total went for four controversial paintings acquired from the Prince of Liech- tenstein's collection. 77 CANADIAN PAINTINGS At the same time, the gallery bought 77 paintings by Canadian artists, largest number purchased in any one year. It also expanded its extensive program of travelling exhibitions across Canada, a system unique among the world's national gal- leries And through the gallery's industrial division and design cen- tre, it continued to emphasize the importance of well-designed prod- ucts An outline of the gallery's work during the fiscal year ended March 31, 1956, is contained in the annual report, itself an out- standing example of good typog- raphy and design, Designed by Canadian graphic artist Paul Arthur. the report is a revolutionary change from prev- ious ones and includes 34 illustra- tions of gallery acquisitions. The largest single purchase of a Canadian's work was that of 18 paintings by David Milne, who died in 1934. But it was the purchase of a 17th century Rubens, a 14th-cen- tury Martini and two 18th-century Chardins which prompted both criticism and praise. STATUS IMPROVED The four paintings brought to 12 the number of Liechtenstein pur- chases by the gallery described in the annual report as ** .a further step in fulling the trustees plan, strongly supported by the government, of raising Canada's National Gallery from the status of a small but interesting collec- tion to that of one of the world's outstanding collections." Criticism of the purchases was based mainly on the expense and an alleged neglect of Canadian artic The gallery sent out 28 travell- ing ¢ bitions, to. large centres, such as Toronto and Vancouver, and to smaller communities such 3 as Rothesay, N.B., Medicine Hat, Alta., and Kapuskasing, Ont. Ranging from the sculptures and drawings of Henry Moore to Japanese children's art and pan- els of Swiss posters, several ex- hibitions are still travelling through Canadian communities in the extensive program of getting the gallery to the people. Canadian art was also repre- sented in five major exhibitions abroad. The Design Centre notched a first with its collection of good de- signs in aluminum. shown in six Canadian and American cities. This was the first international de- sign exhibit originated in Canada for international showing. Fort Macleod, Built In 1874, To Be Restored FORT MACLEOD, Alta. (CP)-- Restoration of Fort Macleod, built in 1874 as the first North West Mounted Police fort in Alberta, is under way on the bank of the Old- man River here The original fort was built on an island in the river which runs through this Southwest Alberta town, but the island has since been greatly reduced in size by erosion At a cost of $40,000, the fort is being rebuilt bv a private group, though it is expected grants will be offered by the provincial and federal governments. Present plans are to include a museum and library in the fort. The historic cairn at Fort Mac- leod, bears this inscription _ "To commemorate the arrival in October. 1874 a'ter an arduous march of 1,000 mi'es. of the North West Mounted Police and the building on the island immedi- ately to th» northeast of the town of the first fort. named after their commandig officer, Col.

AT UN REQUEST Finance Minister Harris said the loan was made at the request of UN Secretary-General Dag Ham- marskjold who needed money promptly to pay for the job. The work would cost $30,000,000 to $40,000,000 and the UN had asked for a $10,000,00 advance. He said the $1,000,000 loan will be credited to Canada. when the UN decides how the cost of the clearance job is to be assessed against member nations. Opposition Leader Diefenbaker said Nasser has defied every or- der of the UN. There had been vacillation and uncertainty in the free world with the result that Nasser had been raised "to the position of a dictator eof the Middle East." MENTIONS FORCE He said he cannot agree with any suggestion that free countries should impose their will by force. However, force on some occasions might be the only way to deal with a given situation. His statement of government policy was mainly a capsule re- view of a speech at the UN Gen- eral Assembly Tuesday by Exter- nal Affairs Minister Pearson. Mr. St. Laurent said the oppe- sition may find it unpalatable that such statements of policy are made at the UN before they are disclosed in Parliament. However, the opposition should realize that if the government an- nounced unalterable policies in Parliament before it did so at the UN, it might have difficulty in pressing Canadian views in the formulation of UN resolutions.
