MAY 13, 1966 -- PAGE 4 Absence Of Red China From UN Holds Danger Prime Minister Lester Pearson has stated that the United Nations should include all countries so the organization can intervene, if neces- sary, anywhere in the world. He pointed out that UN intervention in 'Vietnam would not have much chance of success when China is not even a UN member. On several occasions in the past year, Mr. Pearson has raised the question of China in public address- es. Perhaps the time has come for w more definitive statement by the Prime Minister in the House of Commons on Canada's stand toward the Peking Government. In accordance with Mr, Pearson's view, Canada should be more active at the United Nations -- and in Washington -- to promote China's admission to the United Nations. In past years, Canada has voted consistently against this. For Canada to continue this vot- ing pattern is hypocritical, and be- littles the Canadian Government in the eyes of many other nations, If Ottawa's Prime Minister as well as its External Affairs Minister (Mr, Paul Martin also has hinted that China's absence hampers the United Nations). support a certain policy, why does its delegation in New York continue to oppose the entry of Peking? Even India, the country that con- siders China its most dangerous enemy, keeps voting for Peking's admission because the leaders in New Delhi feel that something of the mood of coexistence at the Unit- ed Nations may rub off on the Chi- nese, continued absence from global councils and particularly from the United Nations -- is dan- egrous. Of all the world's regions, Asia is the least represented at. the United Nations. The people of China, Indonesia, the two. Koreas and the two Vietnams -- whose combined populations .total about 850,000,000 -- are absent from New York. This vast number of unrep- resented people exceeds the total populations of South and North America as well as Africa and Oce- ania, China's As a nation interested in' world peace and progress, Canada should work vote for China's admis- sion. and What Of CIA.

Recently it. was disclosed in the House of Commons that an F.B.I. agent had acted without any auth- orization whatever when he called on a Vancouver woman to make en- quiries about her son, whom the U.S. considers a draft dodger. This, surely, was a piece of impertinence which should be rebuked in the strongest terms. The Montreal newspaper asks: Do C.LA, agents operate in the same way? It is true that in secur ity matters. the U.S, and Canada co-operate. But is there a true rec- iprocity? Are R.C.M.P, men free to operate in the United. States as C.LA, and F-\B.1. appear to operate in Canada? The C.1.A,, 1 men more particularly, is er serious criticism in the Unit- ed States for operating as if it wére a government within a government. The New York Times went the length the other day of expressing concern lest the C.I.A. subvert the American system of government, As The Star says no fear exists here that it may subvert ours, but slurely we must be vigilant to see that agents of other nations do not harass Canadian citizens with im- punity. om i a a i a a ik a Nag cat arn a ran tn OTTAWA REPORT MacEachen Held Likely Contender By PAT NICHOLSON OTTAWA -- The two rogue combatants of Parliament Hill are locked in the mortal combat which may end the political life of bath, Meanwhile the hopeful successors to their crowns are keeping mute about their ambi tions, There is no open leadership race in grogress for either the Conservative or the Liberal party today. 2 The Liberal aspirants include Paul "Martin, Mitchell Sharp, Bob Winters, Paul Hellyer and Jean Lesage, strong in Quebec but proportionately unattrae- tive to nine other provinces, The Conservatives are even more in temporary -- eclipse, George Hees has calmed his ebullience, Davie Fulton has covered himself with nation- wide. doubts, Manitoba's Pre- mier Duff Roblin inereasingly fifs a cynical Liberal's descrip- tion of Bob Thompson making like a scout leader: 'Setting his stetson squarely shading his eyes, bracing his bare knees, and calling out 'come along, fellows, follow me into the for- est and we will search for news and triliums.""'

EXPERT ON SEAWAY PROBLEMS Young Minister Seeks Spurs In Transport By BEN WARD OTTAWA (CP) -- For nearly eight years John Turner has been best known as 'the man who danced with Princess Mar- garet." Now, as minister without portfolio in the federal cabinet, he's working hard to become known instead as the man who helps veteran Jack Pickersgill run the transport department, "I wish' people would forget that Princess Margaret epi- sode,"' he says with a shake of his head "We had a couple of drinks and a few dances together. Some reporters built it up and made a romance out of it. Why didn't they pick on one of the other fellows?" The '"'episode"' Vancouver during Margaret's tour of Canada. Or- ganizers had arranged an in- formal party, inviting a group of young men and women to join the princess for cocktails and dancing.

Watching him lately has also been a bit difficult, He's been on the go continually with as- signments from Transport Min- ister Pickersgill; so much so that fellow MPs now refer to him as the associate transport minister. 3 As the youngest member of a the cabinet at 36, and the only one without a designated de- partment, Mr. Turner recalls that he was-a bit apprehensive when Prime Minister Pearson promoted him to the cabinet in the December shakeup "I figured I was due for all the Joe jobs," he said in an intérview.

He did! Peters built a paddie- wheeler 100 feet long with a large circular platform on the deck, In the centre of the plat- form was a capstan from which 12 bars projected, Peters hitched a strong horse to each of the bars, and shouted '"giddy-up". The horses trotted around the platform turning the which was connecte¢ paddie-wheel, and away went! That was a real 12 horse- power ship, Tests went ovell, and the day came for the first trip with passengers, As the ship moved away from the shore a prankster shouted "whoa!"' and the horses stopped Peters got them going again, but then everyone got into the act, and kept shouting "whoa, The horses stopped every time. with the they i] Fraternal Unity With USSR Base For Bulgaria Policy By JOHN BEST SOFIA (CP)-The stone of Bulgaria's policy, said Tador Zhivkoy, 'ts and will be friendship, fraternal unity and co-opera- tion with the Soviet Union." The prime minister and Communist party chief, speaking a few months ago, was articulating perhaps the most important fact of Bul- garian national life--the coun- try's ties to Moscow, These ties seemingly have remained unshaken during the last 10 years of change and upheaval in Eastern Eu- rope, Other countries of the So- viet Union's one + time Iron Curtain empire may be look- ing for and finding ways to assert their independence from Moscow, but not Bul- garia. Tucked down under Ro- mania, with the Black Sea at its doorstep, Bulgaria is a good 100 miles from the near est Soviet territory. Yet it acts as though it were di- rectly under the gun While the Romanians, for Instance, have rejected Soviet proposals to. integrate their economy with that of the U.S.S.R; and other Commu- nist bloc states, Bulgaria has accepted with enthusi- asm Speaking to the National Assembly in December, Zhiv- kov said: "Bringing closer the Bul- garian national economy to the national economy of the Soviet Union leads toward ac- celerating the advance of our economy, for we count also on the economic, technological and scientific achievements of such a highly industrialized state as the Soviet Union." REMEMBER LIBERATORS Part of the explanation of Bulgaria's fealty to the U.S.S.R. is historic, having nothing to do with ideology: It was the Russian army that liberated Rul ie from the Turks in 18 &. paving way for Bu an independ- ence a few years later, corne foreign the The Bulgarian people don't forget that.

WOULDN'T FIGHT The authorities knew the Bulgarians would refuse to fight the Russians, and not a single Bulgarian soldier was sent to the Soviet front al- though numbers 'were sent to Yugoslavia (also 'a. Slavie country) and to Hungary. Western diplomats here, while acknowledging a na- tural comradeship between Bulgarians and Russians, sug- gest Bulgarian authorities sometimes exaggerate it.

That is in a year's time we are to have a consumer protec: tion program, which will acty ually be the start on a con sumer protection program, Three years ago a select com- mittee was appointed to study consumer credit, This time last year the coms mittee brought down its report. Now the government as brought in legisiation, One bill will set up a con- sumer protection bureau, A second will provide the bureau with law to enforce, The bureau will -be set up right away, But the Consumer Protection Act won't be put through all stages of the house until the next session, CONSUMER "CREDIT" In this initial stage, al least, it is not quite correct to desig. nate the new program as "con- sumer protection," which it has been labelled, It is to protect consumers in the field of credit, and more ac- curately should be classed as consumer credit protection, The program provides that in- terest rates on time payment contracts shall be stated in both dollar and percentage terms, orders a two - day waiting pe- riod before contracts signed door-to-door are valid, and pro- poses other protections such ag a vesting of the buyers interest in property bought on time, GOES SLOW An over-all consumer protee- tion program would cover frauds, standards of advertis- ing, and probably. the cost of financing (In 35 U.S, states there is a ceiling on the finane- ing charges for automobiles, and. in some cases of other goods) Some areas of government here now to touch on these other fietds--the OPP for in- stance, has a fraud squad. And it is logical to expect that one day they will all be combined in the one government bureau, However this will not happen overnight, For it has not been the style of the present govern. ment, or its PC predecessors, @ do things overnight, You don't argue for or against this--or at least the writer doesn't; this is the job of the Opposition. There are many arguments in favor of a cautious approach, But this instance is one of the best examples we have had of just how cautious the approach of the present government act- ually is, In its defence -- if any is needed --- the people seem to agree with it, TODAY IN HISTORY Rv THE CANADIAN, PRESS May 13, 1966. ., Jamestown, Va., the first permanent English settles ment in North America, Was founded 359 years azo~ today --in 1607 -- by Capt, Christopher Newport, Its early years were not much of a success as the village was built on a swamp and was burned down by acei- dent in 1609.
