War On Lough Neagh

There is a “friendly kind of war,” as the authorities call it, going on at Lough Neagh, in Northern Ireland,

between them and local fishermen

whose illegal culling of the most populous eel-producing waters in Europe goes back to a 300-year-old dispute over the allocation of fishing rights. It would make quite a story if written up in racy Irish style.

Last April the Toome Eeel Fishery

~ Company, which has exclusive rights to the fishing, became so concerned at the possible long-term effects of trawling on the -eel « population; as well as at the increasing number of live eels that were slipping through their fingers down well-established smuggling “pipe-lines” to markets in England and the Continent, that they streamlined their patrol methods. Two hydrofoils, a catamaran equip- ped with radar and an Auster spotting plane have been called into service to cope with the baccaneer fishermen; but the issue is still in doubt. _ The present activity is only the latest move in a feud that keeps crop- ping up from time to time. Back in

1911, after an action that started in_

1906, the House of Lords established that, by virtue of a grant made by Charles 11 to the Earl of Donegal in 1661, the exclusive fishing rights be- longed to the company then in con- trol. In June, 1964, after the longest and most expensive High Court action in history, the Court of Appeal in Belfast rejected the fishermen’s

appeal against an injunction restrain-

ing them from using the lough with- out the present company’s permis- sion.

But out of it all the. fishermen emerged as a registered trade union with 350 members and a new and redoubtable champion. Father Oliver

their findings/on a two-year survey.

With the lough’s present eel popula- r tion estimated at around 200 million, there should—surely—be enough for everyone!

Need For Reform

the world’s nations tried to find an agreed basis for monetary reform: ‘Now a joint meeting of the Group of | Ten (comprising the.rich nations of the world) and of the International Monetary Fund is to be’held before Christmas to consider, the creation of a new reserve. unit,’

At the moment, the French are op- poged to this move. However, most oe are ‘ready to proceed with

plans, if necessary without rane the British chancellor of the exchequer, James Callaghan,*said recently, it is generally agreed that At is not proper for countries to run “ budgetary deficits for an unduly long time, but it is equally improper “to run a surplus for an unduly long period unless you are prepared to lend your surplus to the rest of the world,”

Monetary problems, though-couch- © ed in highly technical terms, affect every citizen of the Western world— and. of the African and Asian nations trading withthe West—and these — problems are ‘closely linked with the | present inflationary pressures. If a new international reserve currency were adopted, it could prove of far- reaching benefit in this connection,

- This, at least, is what its promoters maintain. It runs counter te the. _ French contention that a return to

the gold standard is the only way to restore the monetary health of the world. Meantime, as\one commentator drily remarks, the Bank of France’s 4,585 -tons-of gold- ¥leaming-4in the vaults are doing very little good to a world battling a shortage of money and the twin perils of inflation and deflation, —

With logic that would be delerious- ly specious anywhere outside the heady atmosphere of a national con- vention, comments the Hamilton Spectator, the Liberal Party has ad- ‘ mitted the medicare facts, of today but closed its eyes to tomorrow. Dele- gates cheeringly accepted a motion endorsing, while regretting, their government's medicare postpone- ment for another year, and saying implementation could be earlier if the economy permits. Finance Min- ister Sharp pledged himself to the new date, and Treasury Board Presi-

agreement, adding: “If not I will-be one of the ministers not in . the cabinet.”

Noting that the legislation has been introduced to Parliament in this fash- ion, The Spectator concludes;

“In other words Canada’s ruling party was telling itself that it was all right to breach the promise made during the election only 11. months circumstances have changed, but that it can promise that circumstances will not change during the next 12 months. There can, per- haps, be no complaint if a political aggregation chooses to insult its col- lective intelligence in this way, but when it does the same to thé whole people it is time to take unbrage.”

EDITORIAL NOTES

Outside the post office few govern- ment employees have been disciplin- ed for political activities, a return to the Commons shows. In the last 10. years, however, there have been 19 postmasters fired fos political activi- ties,

Canada’s ambassador to Cuba, it seems, is paid more than the Cana- dian ambassador to the United ,Na- tions. This was shown in a Commons return by External Affairs Minister Martin the other day. It would have been more informative if he had ex-

Indeed, as they see it, the NATO foreign ministers’ ‘ypoet- | re ing in Paris in December may be the Jast council conference there.

They guggest that Canada’s position, which had been_diffi- cult to maintain from the be- ginning was weakened through declining ort and b ecause failed to ignite that one spark of hope that eventually there- could be a re- conciliation that would bring France back as a full NATO partner,

NO FINANCIAL HELP

President de Gaulle has made it clear he wants no part of the NATO organization; nor does he show any inclination to provide adequate financial compensa- tion for, transferring the huge NATO military apparatus from French territory

The situation has merely hardened the positions of the United States and Britain. who maintained from the beginning that since de Gaulle told the NATO. military men to go, the NATO countries should not re- ward this command by allow- ing the NATO council, the. polit- ical headquarters, to remain on French territory. ~

Canada won a holding action on the argument that removal of the council would merely aggravate the split and accom- plish nothing constructive, By keeping the council in Paris, there always could be the hope that France would return to the empty chair. Canada’s position won support from Denmark Italy but Italy’s support fell away.

An_-authority who has been watching events closely said simply that Canada’s pésition has become untenable.

SOME COMPLAIN”

As much as the smaller coun- fries are concerned about the “hole” caused by French NATO military organization, they per- haps are equally concerned with the continuing decline of what is known as NATO consultation.

Over the ‘years there have been persistent complaints that the United States did not eon-

Vancouver Provines -

Indonesias's. return to the United Nations is a good omen for Southeast Asia generally. The readmission granted in the General Assembly to Foreign Minister Malik came almost exactly a year after the attempt- ed Communist coup of Sept. 30,

The ee stil appears te be ra by économic . chaos and by feelings of political inse- curity, but the new regime seem genuinely desirous of develop- ing closer relations with its nel- ghbors, Malaysia, the Philip- "pines, Thailand and Cambodia, and to banish altogether the bad impression left by the policies of President Sukarno.

- Those Critical Masses

, Torente Globe and Mail :

It seemaito be a part of the philosophy .of politicians in In- dia that you have got to fight fire with fire. This would ac- count for the determined efforts of the major Opposition parties to mobolize the women of the country against the government of Mrs., Indira Gandhi.

Ina nation of about 100,000,000 women voters, and where the rising prices of such _commodi- dities as rice, cooking. oil and kerosene are vital issues, the move makes political sense. At the same time, it suggests a be- lief that no man has the slightest chance of toppling a woman Prime Minister because he would be hopelessly ou' or-at least, handicapped.
