Wilson, Publisher SATURDAY, APRIL 9 1966 -- PAGE 4 'Great Drama Of History The Easter Story is one of the 'great dramas of history. It is the «story of excited disciples of the Lord whose grief is turned into 'wonder, then into living faith, as {they first gaze into, then enter, a tomb that once had contained the "ody of their Master and is now 'wmpty. It is the story of a resur- ; rected Lord appearing to them in ' person, giving them the-charge that , led to the founding of the Christian ; church. + Here is the account given in St. John's gospel, chapter 20, verses 1 to 23, in the New English Transla- tion of the Bible. Early on the Sunday wh ile it was still dark, Mary morning, of Magdala came to the tomb. She saw that the stone had been moved away from the entrance, and ran to Simon Peter and the other disciple, the one whom Jesus loved. have taken the Lord tomb," she cried, "They out of his "and we do not know where they have laid him." So Peter and the other set out and made their way to the tomb. They were running side by side, but the other disciple outran Peter and teached the tomb first. He peered jn and saw the linen wrappings ly- ing there, but did not enter. Then Simon Peter came up, following him, and he went into the tomb. He saw the linen wrappings lying, and the napkin which had been over his head, not lying with the wrappings but rolled together in a place by it- self. Then the disciple who had reached the tomb first went in too, and he saw and believed; until then they had not understood the scrip- tures, which showed that he must rise from the dead. So the disciples went home again; Customs Of Many of our traditional Easter customs had their beginning in an- , eient pagan rites celebrating the ' Spring rebirth of life and are older _ than Easter itself.

As she wept, she peered into the tomb; and she saw two an- gels in white sitting there, one at the head, and one at the feet, where the body of Jesus had had lain. They said to her, "Why are you weep- ing?" She answered, "They have taken my lord away, and I do not know where they have laid him." With these words she turned round and saw Jesus standing there, but did not recognize him. Jesus said to her, "Why are you weeping? Who is it you are looking for?" Thinking it was the gardener, she said, "If it is you, sir, who removed him, tell me where you have laid him, and I will take him away." Jesus said, "Mary!" She turned to him and said, "Rabbuni!" (which is Hebrew for 'My Master'). Jesus said, "Do not cling to me, for I have not yet ascended to the Father. But go to my brothers, and tell them that I am now ascending to my Father and your Father, my God and your God." Mary of Magdala went to the disciples with the news "I have seen the Lord!" she said, and gave them his message. Late that Sunday evening, when the disciples were together behind locked doors, for efar of the Jews, Jesus came and stood among them. "Peace be with you!" he said, and then showed them his hands and his side, So when the disciples saw the Lord, they were filled with joy. Je- sus repeated, "Peace be with you!" and then said, "As the Father sent me, so I send you."' He then breath- ed on them, saying, "Receive the Holy Spirit! If you forgive any man's sins, they stand forgiven; if you pronounce them tnforgiven, unforgiven they remain. Easter dia Britannica traces the Easter egg to the ancient Egyptian and Persian custom of eating colored eggs, symbols of new life, in Spring festivals. Early Christians were forbidden eggs during Lent and so eating them became a part of Eas- ter Sunday celebration. The symbol of new life became the symbol of re- surrection and the color red, which had represented the sun, came to represent the blood of CHRIST. The hare, once associated with the moon because it feeds at night, was also an Egyptian symbol of fer- tility and the renewal of life which was appropriated by Christian so- cieties and became associated with Easter eggs. On this continent its place was taken by the rabbit. Origin of the tradition of new clothes for Easter is uncertain, The Britannica says it may have grown from an old belief that it was un- lucky not to wear some new article of clothing or personal adornment, or from the feeling that Easter is a time for new beginnings. iW HAH LAAN DEMONSTRATORS REPRESENT SMALL FACTION HL NOAM BIG JUMP 1 NPREFERENCE FOR 2- PARTY SYSTEM THE CANADIAN INSTITUTE OF PUBLIC OPINION (World Copyright Reserved) The last ten years has PE ar RRS dtamatically- increased--Cana dian belief in the vaiue of a two-Party system. Now a maiority of the voters (53%) believe that two Parties in Ottawa is the best form of government. In 1956, the year before John Diefenbaker led Conservatives to power, after many years of Liberal rule, the country divided evenly on both sides oz the argument, with 38% of the opinion that the two-Party Parliament was preferable, and 38% taking the opposite view. In this span of time, during which the nation has known a number of minority govern- ments, a solid core of citi- zens -- just under four in ten -- has remained steadfast in the belief that the present situation with four or five Parties represented in Ottawa is best for the country's gov- ernment. But the large seg- ment of those who couldn't decide, back in 1956, have OTTAWA REPORT Dr. P. B. Rynard Drops Bombshell Nogh OTTAWA--ir. P. B, Rynard dropped a bombshell in the House of Commens, which surely sent patients scurrying to check with their pharmacists and pharmacists to check with their suppliers in Vancouver. The alert doctor-MP for Oril- lia congratulated Health Minis- ter Allan MacKachen on his department's alertness in pick- ing up in Vancouyer 1,060 cap- sules of a drug imported: from Hong Kong which were incor- rectly labelled and misleadingly colored to represent a widely- used antibiotic. But Dr. Rynard hinted at inadequate machinery for checking imported drugs, and implied the question: "A fraction of this dangerously mislabelled shipment has been picked up; what about the as- yet-undiscovered greater bulk of that shipment?" DROPS BOMBSHELL The Squire of the Kootenays is known as the page of the House of Commons, but he is no unthinking fool. His immense volume of work is always con- structive, even if sometimes packaged in merriment. Now non-lawyer Bert Herridge has prepared a bombshell for some lawyer-MPs. Bert and severa! other non- lawyer MPs, who always have their quota of appeals from constituents for help in immi- gration problems, always do all they can, very often success- fully, to untangle the red tape blocking our immigration chan- nels. But they rue the practice of some lawyer-MPs who levy charges through their law firms for similar work. An MP, believes the Squire, is already paid for his work as an MP; no Canadian should be expected to pay a second time, Now Bert is introducing a bill "to amend the Senate and House of Commons Act (St. Luke 11:46)." That verse reads: *'Woe unto you also, ye lawyers! For: ye lade men with burdens grievous to be borne, and ye yourselves touch not the burden with one of your fingers."

WHITE and PETER ARNETT SAIGON (AP)--Four weeks of political unrest in South Viet Nam's cities have brought a dangerous new crisis, threaten- ing the war effort. What has caused the out- breaks in Saigon, Da Nang and Hue? What do the Buddhists and students want? Are Com- munists behind the outbreaks? Why the anti-Americanism? There is no one answer. Here are some of the factors: The people involved in dem- onstrations represent a small fraction of the population, per- haps no more than two or three per cent. But fewer students and Buddhists have toppled ear- lier governments. Perhaps four-fifths of the pop- ulation is apathetic and war: weary after years of conflict. They leave political leadership to others. Perhaps most significant has been the appearance of South Vietnamese soldiers and civil servants. among the demonstra tors in Da Nang ule. de- fection by soldiers and-officials could destroy the entire war ef- Whole Undoubtedly Communist infil- trators have had a hand in the demonstrations but how much no one knows. The Buddhists and students have been the main factors, as in every coup. Basically they want power--if not actual posi- tions, then to be king makers. Then there ate skyrocketing prices and the natural resent- ment of any population against foreign troops who by local standards are rich, live better, and monopolize girls, bars and entertainment, Finally there are the ruling generals who joust among them- selves for power in the military junta just as they have done since the fall of Ngo Dinh Diem. In this struggle for power, Premier Nguyen Cao Ky fired Lt. - Gen. Nguyen Chanh Thi, commander of the. Ist That precipitated the crisis. Within corps. present days of this ouster, rioting began in Hue and Da Nang. Ky was forced to permit Thi to return to the northern sector By. firir Thi Premier K x the ruling gave the opposition posed a ack in junta. This an opening. But Ky felt he had the com- plete loyalty of his fellow offi- cers last weekend when he an- nouncedDa Nang was a "'rebel" city in the hands of '"'Commu- nists." Ky's threat of military operations there brought incred- ulous gasps from U.S. embassy officials. His declaration that 'either the mayor of Da Nang is shot or the government resigns" overshadowed his conciliatory plans to convene a politica! con- gress of all his opposition. The issues now go far beyond a junta squabble. They affect the whole U.S. position here. The Buddhists tasted power first in 1963 when threw President Diem. They have been a force to be " reckoned with ever since, each day growing more powerful with a widening network of 'Bud- dhist boy scouts," primary and secondary schools, and pagodas, Buddhist leaders look more and more like the "third power" they have openly. as- pired to be, the "neutralizing"' force between the South. Vietna mese military men and the Viet Cong. Close observers beiieve they now want a government they can control. , they over. ° Aside from the leaders, how far has the dissension spread among the army and the civil service? SOLDIERS PROTEST As many as 2,000 soldiers at a time demonstrated in Da Nang against the government. Police and government officials responded overwhelmingly to the demonstrators' calls to join them. In Hue, the situation appears even more anti - government, The South Vietnamese Ist In- fantry Division, headquartered in the city, is believed to be under the influence of Gen. Thi, who lives in Hue. In Dalat, Nha Trang and Quang Ngai, local authorities were slow to act against ram- paging students. The Communists have been building a network that could easily take advantage of unrest and turn it into political chaos. The Viet Cong and their back- ers have infiltrated all factions of Vietnamese life -- the reli- gious groups, the students, the government and the military The problem for authorities is: Where does a Buddhist, or agitator, or student end, and a Communist begin? The beauty of flowers bursting into bloom' with the coming of Spring is very much part of the tradition of Easter. Many of TODAY IN HISTORY By THE CANADIAN PRESS April 9, 1966. . Captain John T.

Canadian troops in World War I had been dug in near Arrad, pinned down by the Ger- mans who held Vimy Ridge. It was the anchor of the German front in Western Europe, and the Canadians were ordered to drive them off. It was one of the toughest as- signments of the war, but the Canadians had gained a. re- putation as assault troops. There was a network of un- derground tunnels leading from Arras towards Vimy Ridge, and 15,000 assault infantrymen mov- ed through the tunnels during Easter weekend. They were guided by white tapes along the floors. Gaps were cut in the German barbed wire by special pattrols, and the artillery kept u a constant barrage on the enemy positions. At four o'clock on Easter Monday morning it was "go". The total Canadian force, led by General Byng and including a number of British battalions, was 170,000. Many of them were within 100 yards of the enemy. It had been raining all night, and this had changed to sleet or snow when the time came to attack. Climbing up the. slip- pery, muddy slope was hell, and casualties were heavy. Yet y enn Russians In Cups Create Social And Economic Woes By JOHN BEST MOSCOW (CP) --Slowly but inevilably, Russia is being forced to come to grips with the problem of drunkenness. The country has always been a haven of tolerance for the ex- cessive imbiber. A man's right to tie on a good one now and then has long been held virtu- ally sacrosanct. And it doesn't much matter whether it's done privately or in public Some years ago the Russian republic, by far the biggest and most populous of the 15 making up the U.S.S.R., enacted a law whereby a man can be fined up to five rubles for being drunk in the street. But it's seldom enforced. It's so difficult to decide just when a man is drunk, say the police. So they take the easy way out and give the man the benefit of the doubt. A Moscow law prohibits drink- ing in a public place. But it, too, is honored more in the breach than the observance. In recent moriths, however, there has been increasing talk of the need to tighten up, to do something about the twin prob- lems of drunkennéss and chronic alcoholism. DOCTORS RESTRICTED The newspaper Literaturnaya Gazeta (Literary -Gazette) printed an article calling for a conference of jurists, economists and sociolo fo map a cam- paign against excess drinking. The demand was quickly en- dorsed by readers of the paper. "Whether it is a custom in Russia, or- we are very kind-- we cannot take in hand our drunkards," wrote a. Leningrad psychiatrist. 'In other countries a drunk person is afraid to ap- pear in the street. In our coun- try--no. You can drink, touch passersby in the street." He told of wives, mothers and children going to doctors with pleas such as: 'Help, he tor- tures us and himself bit he won't hear of treatment." § Doctors advise the family to consult a judge or prosecutor, Saying: 'We have no right to order compulsory treatment of an alcoholic if he hasn't com- mitted a crime." It's necessary to instil the idea, especially among young people, that intoxication is the Sign of "low culture and per- sonal decay," the psychiatrist argued, the Canadians made it, and 3,506 Germans surrendered in the first assault. The battle raged for hours with planes of the Royal Flying Corps taniging with the German Air Force over- head. Many of the R.E.C. pilots were Canadians. As Vimy Ridge was taken, the weather suddenly cleared. Troops standing on its summit could see across the great plain beyond. The air was clean, and clear, filled with spring dsun- shine. , Vimy Ridge is a bright star on Canada's battle flag. One of the world's most spectacular war memories] stands there to- day. It was dedicated by the Prince of Wales (now the Duke of Windsor) after the war. He served with the Canadian Gen- eral Staff. for some time. General Byng became Lord Byng of Vimy, and came to Canada as Governor-General. Lady Bung became a_ great hockey fan as Ottawa was 'in the National Hockey League. She donated the Lady Byng Trophy, now awarded every year to the player judged to be the cleanest, most effective player in the league.
