It is to be hoped that he has more basis for his confidence than his comments would indicate. In re- cent weeks there have been success- ful test firings of the first stage of the American Vanguard satellite launching rocket and of certain bal- listic missile assemblies. The Farside rocket. after several failures. has also been successfully launched at an altitude of over Il,t)0tl miles. But encouraging as these developments are. they cannot be compared with the Soviet success in integrating its missile-satellite program.

One would have more confidence in Mr. Dulles‘ opinions if he were to face facts honestly, especially the unpleasant ones. ilc could have told the press conference that the advent of Sputnik II has given added ur- gency to efforts to strengthen the North Atlantic Alliance, to forge more solid ties with Britain, and to increase the free exchange of natural science data and know-how with Britain and the North Atlantic Treaty Organization powers. The December session of the NATO coun- cil in Paris, which President. Eisen- hower will attend, looms as more important than ever and the US.

Rare Qualitications

The news that Governor General Massey has been ask.ed to continue in office for at least another year will, we imagine, be welcomed l‘.V most Canadians.

Mr. Massey has made an excel- lent. representative of the Queen. H0 has many intellectual gifts, a thor- ough knowledge of parliamentary procedures, a good understanding of Canadian life in all its asp?“-is ‘ind- withal, a dignity and charm which go well with his exalted position. He is one of those relatively rare souls who can “walk with king-S N01‘ 105" the common touch." And all thesi- gifts and talents he has devoted to the service of his Sovereign and ‘ll the Canadian people. unstintirigly.

Mr. Massey's extension of tenure will make many Camdlan‘ wonder why he should not be invited to stay on indefinitely—so l0ng- ‘hat ‘$1 95 he is wining in bear the responsibil- itv and his health remains good. What particular need is there in! making a new aPD0inlm“"‘ ""°r-V five or six years? The fact that that has been the custom does not neecs- sarily mean that it has any special merit. A tradition of this nature 19. of course, not to be disregarded lightly. But it is not sacrosanct. and there are times when it may be W189 to let I well considered ni‘°f““l“'" take its Dlacc. Perhaps ‘his L‘ On" of those times.

Of Interest To Canada

l

l I l l I

for higher tariffs too often to please some inﬂuential Congressmen. The other day Senator Flanders of Ver- mont, a member of the Senate Fin- ance Committee, indicated that the President's decision on a case now pending might “raise the question whether a return to acts of Con- gress in the tariff field is called for." The case concerns—of all things- clothespins, for which American manufacturers are asking a higher import duty. Mr. Flanders’ state- ment would seem to imply that it the request is not granted—the Tar- iff Commission has already recom- mended it—protectionist forces in the Senate might be successful in their efforts to take tariff Considera- tions out of the President's hands.

Should this come to pass, (.‘an- :idai's export trade to the United States would almost certainly be faced \\ ith new restrictions; for neither the Tariff Commission nor (‘ongress as a whole is inclined to be liberal on the tariff question.

Picking Potatoes

This Island is not the only place where farmers are divided in their opinions regarding the value of a potato marketing board. According to a report from London, a some- what similar situation exists in Eng- land. There, a national board mar- kets the potatoes, attends to improv- ing the quality, sets production quotas, establishes prices and even provides extra labour for harvesting. At least. these are its official func- tions. But lately the farmers have been complaining that the board doesn’t do any of these things prop- erly. A specific complaint is that the board has been lax in finding volunteers to aid in the harvesting.

As is customary when any dis- pute is under way, the newspapers have been swamped with “letters to the editor," most of them chiding the board for its failures. a few saying a kind word for the officials. The London Daily Express, which is never hesitant about suggesting solu- tions for problems which come to its attention—and what problem doesn't'.’—thought that the solution to the labour shortage was to be found in the personnel of the board itself. “There are 600 persons work- ing for the marketing board," it stated editorially. “Let them put down their pens and get out and pick up potatoes."

The report. does not say how the 600 reacted to the suggestion. But it isn't likely that they thought too highly of it.

Evidently, the Asian flu bug is not satisfied with hitting an area once. In Japan, where last Sprint: 18 million persons were stricken. the disease has again reached epidemic status.

A city in Indiana has repealed a law which made it unlawful for any- one to board a public conveyance within four hours after eating garlic. That's one legislative action which can scarcely be justified by consid- eration of the public interest.

injections To Curb Smoking

physician, Dr. B. Ejrup, who us- ed injections of lobelin hydro- chloride to help patients give up Imoking. He reports good results in certain cases. Some 73 per cent of those he treated cut their smoking by 75 per cent or gave it up completely. ‘

CUTS CRAVING Lobeline. I snythetic drug,

patients tested reported cigIr-| ettes became tasteless. although there was no disagreeable taste ln the mouth or other discomfort while smoking during the length of the treatment. '

Only three patients of the B3 who took part in the experiments noticed a slight nausea about an, hour after the drug was injected. ‘

Now, why do persons want to give up smoking‘? 4

ot for the reason you might; think. Dr. Ejrup says that fear of lung cancer was net I common l incentive for combating the to- bacco habit.

A‘ ' he found that the chief reasons given by his pIt- ients were hygiene and the fact‘ that smoking had become expen- sive .

His reports on the tests indi- cate to me that giving up amok-, ing might not be as difficult as most of you think For example. Dr. Ejrup used a placebo tan in- jection which should have had no effect at alli on other patients v in check the reaction of th s9‘ who got the actual drug. HIlf of whose who got the placebo only. and none of the drug. reacted! favorably and cut their smoking.

Dr Ejrup concludes that up-l parently "suggestion" plays an‘ important part in breaking the tobacco habit. i

Let me add emphatically that I think it does. too. ‘
