Surveys by the World Gallup Poll on the eve of the 'rouble in South America, Africa, and the Near East s this pattern of opinion aro the world 1. In vi all of the 11 world opinion centres in the In- ternational Poll a significant number of sons said their re- spec' for ited States had decreased recently 2. In several of the world cen- tres, however notably New Delhi this lessening .espect is set somewhat by large pro- portions w their opinion of the US up recent- ly. 3. Some of the most vehement criticism of the U.S, was record- ed in Paris where, just before the outbreak of the current trou- ble, the anti-U.S, sentiment out- numbered the pro-US. senti- ment by 11-to-1. The chief reason for the down- turn in sentiment in the French capital was what was felt to be OTTAWA REPORT pe the off ho say has gone of the toward favorable attitude American government the Algerian nationalists. 4. Generally speaking, persons in the various cities who said their opinion of the S. had gone down recently attributed their change in view to some phase; of U.S. handling of inter- national affairs--such thei» approach to Summit Conferences or reaction to nuclear disarma- ment Very little criticism was rected at U.S. economic tion and its possible effects on other countries.

He will then have held the hichest appointment in our country for longer than any of his predecessors, just topping the record of our einth governor-gen- eral, Earl Grey, who presented the famous football championship cup. Although he now is in his 72nd year, His Excellency has set a very high standard in his devo- tion duty. He has travelled more miles around Canada, by plane, train, car boat and even dog-sled, than any other G-G. And at his frequent public appear- ances, he delivers speeches of an oratorical and intellectual quality which soar far above the prev- fously customary governor-gener- alities. As Mr. Massey is our first na- tive-born governor - general, the choice of his successor poses a difficult problem indeed. All sorts of suggestions have been heurd here, Including the Queen Mother, Earl Mountbatten, and Ceylon's distinguished ex-premier, QUEBEC'S TURN NEXT But Mr, Massey belongs to that clearly defined Canadian sector typified by the word 'Toronto.' So the response to that must be "Quebec." Perhaps thereafter we will break away, in that as in so many other fields, from the crampingly rigid alternation be- tween just two of the many ra- cial elements in our citiz- enry. But meanwhile, the choice of our next governor general must narrow down to a Quebec- ois if possible. So far only two names have been seriously dis- cussed; but both of them, Mr. St, Laurent at 76 and General Vanier at 70, are too old to enter upon that active five-year job. Recently however 'a new French » Canadian luminary has burst upon 'the consciousness of our national capital as a person of great dignity and fine charac. ter: the Hon. Mark Drouin. As IS a4 ne mer (to prominence on Parliament Hill," Ottawa has only recently appreciated that his well - rounded personality offers more than all the varied attrib utes which would be sought in a governor-general Rarn in Ouehwe Hon, Charles to he We City. he wrad- uated from Laval University, and as long been an honoured law- yer in "the Ancient Capital', In his short career as Speaker of the Senate, he has already shown himself to be a natural diplomat, while he is fortunate to have in the former Jeanne Grandbois, also of Quebec City, a charm- ing and gay wife who could be- come one of the most, popular hostesses ever to have lived in Government House, Ottawa, and The Citadel, Quebec. HIS WIDE INTERESTS In his 84 years, Mark Drouin has played many typical Cana. dian roles. He has been a star hockey player, with the Quebec Aeros in the amateur inter-pro- vincial league; a happy week-end golfer who can still hope to break his modest 90; an enthusiastic horseman, now proud of the skills and courage shown by his 14- year-old equestrian daughter, Ju- lie; a music-lover and Hi-Fi fan enjoying an unusually complete collection of the classics; a de- votee of the live theatre who is now president of the famous Theatre du Nouveau Monde; a Canada - wide traveller who has five times visited France, Brit- ain and other European count- ries; a founder of the Quebec Fly- mg Club; and he is already ac- ouainted with the Queen of Can- ada, whose personal representa- tive he would be as governor. general, It is rightly maintained that politicians should not be ap- pointed to Government House, Mr. 'Drouin has taken the active .nterest in our country's affairs which every conscientious citizen should, But, as Speaker of the Senate, he is above golitical par. tiality; not being a "career pol- ftician" at any time, he has never unlike Mr. Massey him- elf, served as a cabinet minis. ter The prospect of a vigorous and cultured Canadian in his mid-50s being appointed as governor-gen eral of this young country is especially attractive to all Cana cians, A perfectly bilingual and truly "Canadian" citizen, he would appeal to English-speaking clements: on these grounds just as his Quebec birth and tradi tions would endear him to French-speaking elements That is why many formed people here today rate Hon, Mark Drouin as the man most likely to be appointed our 19th governor-general next vear. well-in THE U.S on the aid The U.S hand, was praised, other for its foreign policy 5. In all of the 11 world opin- ion centres, in which this study was conducted, there is a con- s.derable number ranging from eight out of ten in Stock- holm to one in five in Athens who say their opinion of the U.S. has not changed recently, Interviewers f r the affiliated World Gallup Polls as.ed this question of typical citizens in 11 major cities of the wor.d--eight of them in NATO countries: GONE UP OR DOWN Same No Opinion 14% 9 19 20 3 2 15 13 44 11 The the eight on an aver as follows: Opinion Of U.S. Gone up Gone down The same No opinion It should be pointed out that the question asked only if one's opinion had gone up or down and not what their general opin- fon of the U.S, was. Although the criticism of the U.S. generally falls into a "for- eign policy" category, it often takes the form of a specific in- terest relating to the country in question as in the case of Pz and the crticism of the U.S. stand on Algeria. In Helsinki, for example, in- terviewers heard criticism of the U.S. handling of the Heik- kiia case -- the deportation from this country of a Finnish-born man for alleged communist par- ty activities. In New Delhi, although the U.S. was praised for U.S. foreign aid to that country, it was also criticized for what was thought to be an "'anti-India' attitude as regards Pakistan and that coun- try's long standing dispute with India, In Athens, there was criticism of the U.S. government's alti tude on the Cypress dispute be- tween Greece and Great Brit. ain, World Copyright Reserved consensus of opinion in NATO centres, based ye of the :esults, is Cement Firm Contract Let Dock Building PETERBOROUGH (CP) A cement company announced Mon- day it expects to let a contract this week for construction of a dock deep enough to take St. Lawrence Seaway traffic at Col- borne, on Lake Ontario 30 miles southeast of here, An official of St. Lawrence Ce- ment Company said the firm plans to have a limestorfe quarry and crusher in operation at its newly - acquired 700-acre lake- shore property by early next vear. It expects to ship 1,000,000 tons of crushed limestone annu- ally to its cement-making plant at Clarkson, 15 miles southwest of Toronto Depth of water at the dock will be 30 feet--threc feet more than that of the secaway--the spokes man said in an interview from Clarkson. The dock would be 1,300 feet long. Colborne is in one of the few deep-water sections on the north shore of Lake Ontario. Present company plans cover the use of ships only to carry its rock to Clarkson, the official said U.K. OPINION Neighbors' Troubles Don't Excite British By "ONLOOKER" THOMSON NEWSPAPERS London, England, Bureau The British right now feel rather like aparument-dwellers who are on good terms with the people next door -- and hear through their thin walls that the people next door are having a super-grade domestic row. That, in too tight a nutshell, is an assessment of the British atti- tude towards the French crisis, France is separated from the southern coast of Britain by a mere 22 miles, You can sail across the English Channel in a packet-boat in about two hours, and you can take off from a British airfield and land on a French one in 18 minutes. Those 22 miles still keep, despite id progress of transportation, two nations distinct and i ate, But the narrowness of the English Channel does mean Ht events in France interest man (and woman) in the 2 here more than go events in any other European country. What do the British right now think of the French-Algerian crisis? First, they have been educated up to the fact that Algeria is as much a part of France as Scot- land is of Britain and Nova Sco- tia is of Canada. They cannot visualize such goings-on in Brit. ain, but they have sympathy with the French in their troubles, AGAINST THE GENERALS Their sympathy is directed mainly towards the civil authori. ties, despite the claims from Al- geria that the givil powers, works ing at long range from Paris, have been incompetent at best and impotent at worst to deal with the situation. The British have a natural antipathy towards the idea of having military men in charge of affairs of state, That is why, for instance, they backed Truman heavily when he sacked MacArthur when the American general started to yearn for high. authority to use nuclear the Korean con level bombs during flict, There is another aspect to it, One would have thought that the British would have been solidly the years when he was in rallying-point after the defeat behind de Gaulle, recalling war-time jritain to for Frenchanen of France in 1940, the their form a True, Gaulle the war, admiration British extended de during But only the naive sug- done with the expenditure of just twopence, At the moment if he put the ? tidings into a letter it would cost him threepence, And even on the cheapest tele phone call rate the operation y would cost 3s, 6. (about 50 cents), Responsible for all this is Brit- ain's Postmaster-General, who is proving that rarity among politi- cal appointments, the right man in the right job. The postmaster is a short and bustling politician called Ernest Marples, one of the shrewdest members of the present govern- ment. He is, admittedly, fond of pub. licity, He has an eye for a gim- mick, Although well on into mid- dle-age, ho skis and iy climbs, walks a lot and has been known to turn up at Britain's House of Commons not in a plush car that ministers have provided for themselves but on a pedal bik e, But he is full of ideas to get his department -- and especially the telephone side of it -- to pay. The telephone services over here are state-controlled in all but one town. They are still a long way behind thoze in North America, but by 1970 it looks as if they might be on the way to catching up. It is by that date that most telephone owners in Britain will be on a new system, Instead of having a varying rate for differ- ent parts of the country for a minimum time of three minutes, the minimum itself will vary, from 12 seconds for the longest. distance call to a minute for shorter distances, It will mean that "You're fired" can be uttered for two. pehce over any distance, And ~ a blow to telephone gossips -- local calls will be timed as well, VACATION TOURS IN ONTARIO'S LAKELAND Whsaga Beach 1 Week - From $48.90 : Extra Weeks - per week - From $42.00 Mskoks (akes 1 Week Extra Weeks Bj 1 Week From $66.90 - per week - From $55.00 From $45.15 Extra Weeks - per week - From $36.00 LAKE CRUISES (Including Return Fare by Bus) From Oshawa From Owen Soung WEEK-END CRUISE: From $31.50 5-Day Cruise: gest that had there been a bigger personality avalable to lead the Free French movement he would have been preferable to the enig- matic de Gaulle, During the war criticisms of de Gaulle over here He was acknowledged was slight, the leader, It is only since the war, in the writings of Churchill and other 3-Day Crui war leaders, that the debit side of de Gaulle's character come to light, thirteen years later, have watched de in obzeurity until he came with his startling "I am ready' declaration, NO EFFECT has And since the end of the war in Europe and today, the British Gaulle first. mix- ed up in French politics and then out from Muskoka 1-Day Cruise: 2-Day Cruise: From $89.50 Wharf From $28.55 From $34.25 From $53.30 Hom Penetang + Week Day Cruise '$12.45 Sunday Cruise $10.10 So they are inclined to dismiss de Gaulle as a potential man' for France-- are ready needs a "strong man' as vitally right now as she did when she went to war in 1939, _ Despite all the unsettled con- ditions, air routes from Britain to France are still crowded, The holiday season is getting into swing, and thousands of Britons still go ahead with their plans to have a holiday in France, Paris--a cou- ple of hours by plane, eight hours by train and hoat--or the northe ern French resorts are beginning to polish anew their "English Spoken Here" signs, Main talking point of home news over here is the fact that come 1970 a boss at one end of Britain will be able to lift up a phone, bark "You're fired" into it at a minion at the other end of the conutry, replace the phone, and know that the task has been' BYGONE DAYS 25 YEARS AGO A shipment of 25,000 young trees arrived for future beautifi- cation, and a tree nursery was established north of the Union cemetery, At a meeting of former mem- bers of the 2nd Battalion, steps were taken for the formation. of a 2nd Battalion Club with the following officers elected: presi dent, Lt.-Col, P.
