Jaw, Jaw, Jaw

In his recent first encyclical. _P0pe Paul VI declared: “For the lever of truth. discussion is always possible" and called for his church to continue and extend its "dialogue with all men of goodwill".

But of what use is dialogue. whether in terms of the church or otherwise. in the absence of good- will? And what is the worth of discussion which is ruled by pre-

judice rather than the love of truth? Oh. as Sir Winston Churchill

Once said. ".iaw. jaw. jaw" probably still “is hotter than war. war, war“. but it is growing increasing— ly difficult to get much comfort out. of the kind of talk. dialogue or dis- cussion that is best described as “jav'ing”.

So it is with much of what now passes for debate in Canada‘s House of Commons. consisting chiefly of clashes between closed minds. spic- ed With venom. vindictiveness and incitements to regional and racial hate. rather than any seeking after common ground on the part of men who are joined by the love of truth.

Then. in a still more. dangerous arena. the Creek government no longer is willing even to “jaw” with the government of Turkey in con- nection with the strife in Cyprus. which could involve much of the world in war. Among Greeks. Turks and Cypriots alike. the only voices now being raised are the voices of hate.

The snarl of hate grows louder, too. in place after place in the US. as diehard racists and bigots clash in ways to delay the advance of the decencies of civil and social rights.

And in the great, world-wide dia» logue. theI chief cry of Communism. even while divided itself. continues to be: damn all of you who refuse to do things in the way we. demand.

Looking back home again. per- haps the. clearest thought. put forth last week was advanced by Prime Minister Pearson. in discussing the hope that ways could be found of strengthening the powers of the forces of the United Nations in Cyprus. when he said: "Sometimes you can do things under the impetus :of fear that you cannot do under the stimulus of reason."

So that is the state of our world. It takes faltering steps. with varying degrees of success. in an effort to contain hate. to limit its baleful effects. but makes scarcely any visible progress toward correct- ing or curing hate. Only rarely in the largest dialogues now raging is nthere to he found that primary requisite stated by Pope Paul: the :quality of goodwill.

c No Cause For Smugness

: Last week it was regarded as i. good news in Canada when Ottawa ifigures were released showing that iunemployment at mid-July was ;down to 3.7 per cent. of the labor Home for the whole country and to :43 per cent for the Atlantic region. {And it was good news, to the ex- tant that it showed the healthiest temployment situation that has exist- aged in this region and this country {for several years.

MONDAY. AUGUST 17. 136?. .

Virtually full employment us that country had continued through the second quarter of the year.

It is usual on this continent to think of Canada and the United States as two of the “most advanc- ed" countries on earth, but they don't look that way when it comes to the matter of keeping their people employed.

But Was It ’Paring‘?

The federal deficit for the 1963- 64 fiscal year. which ended last March 31. reached $619,197,480. ac- cording to figures published Satur- day. On this basis, credit. is being given the new Liberal government for being “able to pare the federal deficit somewhat . . ."

There is a literal basis for this statement. of course. for the pres- ent government was in office for all but 22 days of the period in which that deficit developed. And the total is $72 million lower than the deficit showing of the former Con- servative government in the 1962- 63 fiscal year. and almost $172 mil- lion below the total for the record‘ breaking 1061-62 fiscal year.

Yet. that word "pare" still sounds a little strange when used to describe what happened to the deficit. for the reduction in its total does not result from any significant economies effected by the new Lib- eral government.

0n the contrary, it has been the soaring of revenues, rather than the “paring” of anything. that has produced the improved result. The relatively good showing to which Finance Minister Gordon is able to point grows out of the continuing economic expansion Canada is en- joying. and the resulting surge of tax income. more than actions that can be credited directly to the Lib- eral government.

This is not to deny that con- tributions to the result may have come from various economic policies initiated by the government. Sev- oral of them may have helped im- portantly. But. the fact remains that. the main economic. expansion of the past few years has been shared by almost all advanced societies. All of them havi3 been beneficiaries of a common economic expansion.

At least part of Canada's im- proved conditions has come almost as an overflow from the US. And the pegging of the dollar by the Conservative government. prior to its defeat. is 9. Continuing major expansionary influence.

1n the current fiscal year. even more than the one which ended last March. all these forces are con- tinuing to work toward a still- bettered fiscal showing for the gov- ernment. And any developments that help bring about a steady lowering of the level of federal de- ficits are both welcome and im- portant. no matter how inappro- priate that word "pare" may seem when applied to them.

It is reported the empire of William Zeckendorf. one of the big- gest real estate operators in Can- ada and the U.S.. through the firm of Webb and Knapp, has dwindled in value from $300 million to $133 million. A perceptive peek into his methods is provided by a story about a son who burst into his office and said broathlessly: “Dad. I've just found out we can pick up the Waldorf for a cheap $22 million, if we move quickly." The older Zeckendorf sighed and replied: "I know. but they want 525.000 cash.”

Lung Cancer Is Dichssecl

By Dr. Theodore R. Van Della

Evidence continues to mount on the relationship bemeen heavy smoking and the inci- dence of lung cancer and car dlovucular disorders. Many individuals tlke the attitude that. heavy smokers. knowing this. should be allowed to do clde whether the risk is worm the pleasure they get from the habit. ‘

How many cigar-cu are harm- ful? Opinions vary. The. light smoker. for example. may de- velop lung cancer and proof to lacking that the heavy smoker is stricken earlier

Some authorities believe in a hereditary or genotype ten- dency to the ill effects of tobac- co; these people will get into trouble at a certain age regard-

less of haw much or how little they smoke.

If this is so. why penalize light smokers and noninhmers who enjoy cigarets'.’ This is our present. attitude toward drink- . in To avoid misunderstand- 3 ing. 1 want it known that l do not believe smoking or drinking i should be encouraged by mak- ing it sound desirable or neces-

sary. Most authorities agree that chronic bronchitis with exact:- toration is a forerunner of lung. cancer. Again. we can say this type of pulmonary disease Is not confined to the heavy smo- ker. It. is caused also by infec- tions and by air pollution_ Fur- thermore. some heavy smokers never develop a cough. Research is being conducted to determine wheiher tobacco is the sole culprit in lung can- cer or just one of the contri- buting factors. For example. many smokers also drink cof- fee and alcohol. What does smoking do to a person with an established bronchitis due to bacteria or viruses? Smoker.

FLAG BACKGROUND Sir.— Canadians continue to ask for background information

3 on the proposed national flag. . The following may be of interest

to your readers.

Canada's national emblem

‘r was fixed by the proclamation

of George V at the request of tie Meighen Government In 1921 _ three maple leaves con- joined on one stem. Our nation- al colours along with our motto “From Sea 0 ea" were pro- claimed at the same time. The proposed flag therefore selects from our coat of arms t h o s a parts which are uniquely repre- sentative of Canada.

This choice of arms was the result of considerable study.

Following the First World War j Sir Robert Borden appointed a . highly qualified Arms Commlt- . 1 tee headed by M

ajor- W.G. Gwalkin. This Committee. working with the College of

.Arms. produced formal Canad-

ian symbolism which combined aesthetic beauty with high her- aldic quality.

Fifty years prior to the re- searc'i studies of the Arms Com-

mittee. Queen Victoria in 1868 . . issued her Royal Warrant es- “ .
