QUEEN'S PARK Successors heviewed To Leaders By DON O"HEARN TORONTO -- It appears that in three to five years from now political parties in Ontario will have new leaders. We happen to be at a point where circumstances and condi- tions indicate _across-the-haard change and it can be interesting to speculate on just what the future may produce. ; Indications are the govern ment will be the first to change leaders, and its probable move is also the easiest to anticipate. Premier Robarts almost as- suredly will contest the national PC leadership. And if he doesn't win it he will retire from poli- tics and head his own law firm, DAVIS TO SUCCEED His successoor will likely be Education Minister Bil] Davis-- @ young man who cut his teeth on politics. Mr. Davis would be regarded as a run-away in any MORE CONFUSION FOUND TODAY OVER SEPARATION By THE CANADIAN INSTITUTE OF PUBLIC OPINION (World Copyright Reserved) In the past two years, public opinion shows less appre- h on the seri , to the rest of Canada, should Quebec leave Confederation. Two years ago a national survey was made on this subject and 64 per cent of the voters said it would be véry or fairly serious if Quebec withdrew from Confederation. Today only 48 per cent look upon such a contingency as serious. But the ratio of people who do not consider threats from Separatisis elements as dangerous has remained the same -- 28 per cent. ' However, there is considerably more confusion over the subject today than in 1964. In Québec, the people (51%) are most concerned and most confused -- 29% with 'no opinion." The question: "If Quebec should leave Confederation, how serious do you think this would be for the future of the rest of Canada?"

The ineptness with which they are handling their campaign dest- ines it to defeat. Their strategy has been deplorable. With members of the Conservative Opposition ever searching for ammunition with which to embarrass the government, the naval protestors failed to util- ize these proper parliamentary channels to loose their salvos of criticism.

Aims To Avert Friction By ARCH MacKENZIE WASHINGTON (CP)--Rufus Zartman .Smith is a_ tall, rusty-haired old Canada hand directing a state department experiment in relations with its northern neighbor His objective is to apply more perspective to the bur- eaucratic sprawl of official Canada United States con- tacts, 'trying to make sure the right hand is kept in- formed of what the left hand is doing." Amid the steady growth in bilateral problems such as water, lead and zinc, cheese, defence and foreign affairs, Smith hopes to head off as much potential political frie- tion as possible before fires start publicly. RUFUS SMITH the aim when Prime Minister Pearson and President Johnson. early in 1964 ordered Canadian Arnold Heeney and American Liv- ingston Merchant to prepare their report. Subsequently, some thought was given here to creating a special bureau of Canadian affairs, requiring congressional approval Smith, 44 impressive credentials as director of the office of Canadian affairs-- his appointment w an- ounced April 6.

"Of course, there are es- tablished channels which now operate efficiently from cabi- net level on down to individ-, uals in Canadian and U.S, departments and we won't interfere. But we want to be informed." So far, as seen by Cana- dians here, the experiment is paying off in quicker, easier contacts. One Canadian diplo- mat suggests that in a way, the new Canadian section and its considerable Canadian background -is almost like having an ally in the stale department because a broader outlook is injected on spécific economic or other, issues of the day. An American counterpart says the key difference now is that people involved with Canada are that much closer to the wheels of power in the state department The new machinery may feel the pressure shortly, how ever, if some straws in the wind materialize.

By BOB BOWMAN Before British Columbia and Vancouver Island were united as one colony in 186, New Westminster was the capital of the mainland. The original choice had been Fort Langley, but Governor Douglas decided that it was too close to the U.S. border. Many people had-bought property around the old Hud- son's Bay Company fort, on the understanding that the capi- tal would be there, and accused Douglas of having fooled them in order to increase the value of the company property. Fin- ally they were allowed to ex- change their holdings at Fort Langley for land at Queens- borough, as New Westminster was called. The royal proclamation changing the name Queens- borough to New Westminster, and making it the capital, was on July 20, 1859. Secretary of the Colonies Sir Edward Bulwer Lytton did not like the name Queensborough, and said it was "not only prosaic but the quin- tessence of vulgarity'! ® OTTAWA REPORT By coincidence July 20 also became the date when. British Columbia joined Canada, in 1871. Although the federal gov- ernment had promised to build a railway to the Pacific, Con- federation was not welcomed by a number of British Colum- bians. One official said 'We aré a conquered country and the Canucks take possession tomorrow." Nevertheless, there were cele- brations throughout the new province beginning at midnight July 19 In Victoria, Canadian supporters -gathered on the streets and cheered, while bells rang, guns fired, and Roman candles were lighted. James W. Trutch was ap- pointed the first lieutenant-gov- ernor. He had taken part in the negotiations in Ottawa where Sir George Etienne Cartier rep- resented Canada because Prime Minister Macdonald was ill. Later Trutch said publically "We must all remember in British Columbia that to Sir George Cartier and his follow- ers in Lower Canada we owe PM In Position To Act On Speech By PAT NICHOLSON OTTAWA -- Any minister in any government today who is concerned with external rela- tions is bound to be particu- larly interested in trade and economic matters, because they loom so large--for good or evi' --in determining the relatio between nations. Men trade with other coun- tries because it adds to their wealth government support them because this trade and this wealth add to the nationa welfare, In Canada, more than in most countries, international trade is vital to our prosperi! but today our trade faces »pe- cial problems which arise, for the most part, out of the com cations and perplexities of 'he international situation. One of the most imaginative and compelling phrases that emerged during the Second World War was coined by a great American, Wendell Wil- kie, who talked about "one world'--the one world of peace and of commercial intercourse. There is no more depressing aspect of the post-war period than our inability to realize this ideal. The divisions amongst the nations of the world which have risen like road blocks in our way towards unity are com- plex and varied, and unhappily they rise even among the best of international friends It now is clear that the West- ern world must set about rede- signing the structure of its in- ternational economic relations, even as it must rebuild its in- ternational political life. We our- selves must do everything we can to develop our own re- sources for our own people, This should, as I have sug- gested, involve a re-examina- tion of economic policy by all countries. concerned, in the light of the present interna- tional economic and political situation In working out these problems successfully, in attempting to reconcile our. differjng inter- ests, we can, I think, use our North Atlantic Treaty Organiza- tion. It may provide the foun- dation for a great co-operative economic commonweaiin of ihe Western world--which one day may become a political com- monwealth, You may say that this is unrealistic nonsense, but 1 suggest that in this jet-pro- pelled atomic age, no plan less nan this will be adequate; no vision less than this will do. It is of urgent and great im- portance that we should develop the concept of a North Atlantic economic and social community within the framework of NATO. Up to the present, we have considered that pact as primar- ily a defensive military ar- rangement to increase our power to resist aggression, We were right in giving this side of its priority, but it now is time to plan our economic defences. In the long run our hopes for the safety and prosperity of the North Atlantic world will prove illusory unless we regard NATO as being a great.deal more than simply a military alliance. The terms of the treaty specifically pledge its members to make every effort to broaden the basis of their association, and not to restrict it to defence alone. This aspect of the treaty, which holds out the promise of economic co-operation, has al- ways seemed of particular im- portance to the Canadian people and their government We face a complicated and difficult situation. It's a tough problem for any country, and a very tough one for a country like ours; dependent as we are on foreign trade, and with a half a continent which can only be developed as we want it to be developed by the proceeds of that trade. But tough prob- lems are made for tough peo- ple, and we Canadians are tough people Unquote. Every word of the above is taken from one of the most remarkable and far- sighted speeches ever made by a Canadian nolitician the position we are now in and especially the Canadian Pacific Railway." Evidently British Columbia has not forgotten. Recently its government lent Quebec $100,- 000,000, saving Quebec $750,000 in legal fees and brokerage charges it would have paid had it gone to regular sources for the money.

And once he was in he might well set up a new record for longevity in office in Canada. He would be almost unbeatable. Liberal Leader Andrew Thompson is going to have to create miracles in the next election if he is to hold his job. As of now, he appears to be going nowhere--and in a state of some confusion at that. THOMPSON TO FALL? Under new party policy he will automatically have to go before a convention, and unless he makes major gains he will be opposed and probably un- seated. At this point I would say Robert Nixon wil] be his suc- cessor, At the last Liberal convention Mr. Nixon suffered because there was a young "'hot-shot" element in the party, a young know-it-all element which was very prominent. It's two heroes were Mr. Thompson and Charles Temple- ton. Since the convention, how- ever, Mr. Nixon has shown he is probably the most able all- round man in the party. He does leave something to be desired in force and imagi- nation but this. can always be supplied by a colleague. MacDONALD THREATENED The NDP would be the Jast group in the world to foresee a change in their leadership. But it could be coming. Don MacDonald has a lot of ability. But he is old-fashioned in that he fights politics with the approach that labor fought employers on the picket lines in the 30's. It's possible the change will come in Mr. MacDonald him- self. If not, the course of events may change him from his job. TODAY IN HISTORY By THE CANADIAN PRESS July 20, 1966... The British colony of Brit- ish Columbia joined Confed- eration 95 years ago today-- in 1871--and became a prov- ince of Canada. There had been exploration and settle- ment of the area for less than 100 years and only in 1849 did the British govern ment take an interest there, to resist U.S. claims to the Hudson's Bay Company's territories. The gold rushes of 1858 and 1860 brought in thousands of settlers, but the colony was on the verge of bankruptcy all the time, One of the conditions for joining Canada was the con- struction of the Canadian Pacific Railway. 1814--Fight U.S. citizens were hanged as spies at Ancaster, Ont. 1933---The Pope signed a pact with Nazi Germany.
