The New Congress As a general thing a Democratic- controlled United States Congress is more likely to be favorable to liberal : trade policies-reduced tariffs and the like-than 11 Congress which is under the domination of Republi- cans. In tureigii irlzitions, too. it IS Ol.mm,.,i,. "kplly in he 3 hit more internation:-ill,v-minded in its outlook. The new (lontziess that meets in .l:iniiai-v, however, although b oth Houses will have a majority of Dem- V or-rats, is not likely to fdllow the traditional hciit. This is because the null Democratic strength will be held , by the icpresciitativcs from the I Southern liloc who in general are I more conservative in trade policy and less internationally-minded than ate Northern Republicans.

I The fact that in the new Congress the rights of seniority will fall main- ly to this Southern bloc means that they will be in a. position to control the various Congressional commit- tees; and it is these committees which virtually control the workings of both Houses, especially in respect of the Foreign Affairs Committee and the Tariffs Committee.

- Senator Walter George of Georgia, the dean of the Upper House in the last Congress, was probably the best friend the outside world has had in the United States Senate for many 1 year; but, then, he was a rare specimen, a liberal Southerner; and he is no longer in the Senate, having resigned some months ago to repre- sent President Eisenhower in the North Atlantic Treaty Organization. glancing over the list of influential

outhern Democrats e l e c t e d last

Tuesday to either the Senate or the House of Representatives, one is un- able to single out one man who might. be expected to make his voice heard in behalf of liberal trade pol- icies or meaningful United States

Explanation Needed

No one will criticize External Af- fairs Minister Pearson for ordering the Egyptian Ambassador to Canada to put a stop to his appeal for Can- adian volunteers to fight for Egypt and to refrain from similar "im- proprieties" in the future. It is I little strange, however, that Mr. Pearson's action in this regard came after the fighting in Egypt had stopped and not while it was going on. The Egyptians appeal was made at the very beginning of the British- French intervention in the Suez

I Canal area; and, while it is most

unlikely that any bona fide Canadian paid the slightest attention to it, despite the amhassador's statement that 204) "volunteers" had responded, the fact that the appeal was allowed to be made at all needs some ex- plaining, and Mr. Pearson would seem to be the right man to come forward with it. ' if the appeal was "not in accord- ance with diplomatic practices" (Mr. I'PlIllS()ll'S words) after the cease-fire had become effective and Egyptls need for outside help had lessened, it could not have been a lawful pl'El('ll('e while the fighting was in progi-ess. Perhaps in his explanation Illr. Pearson will acknowledge also that the Canadian Government's of- icial attitude when the trouble began encouraged the Egyptian ambass- ador to make such a grievous affront to Canadian citizens. From state- ments made by Canadian representa- tives a foreigner might very well have gathered that Canadians were anti-British, anti-French and pro- Egyptian.

A Magnificent Record

No organization in this Province has had a finer record of humani- tarian service than the Charlotte- town Free Dispensary, which will cease to exist on the 30th of this month as it is felt that with two Welfare Bureaus in the city, the work of the Dispensary is no longer necessary. This certainly was not the case forty-seven years ago, when the Dispensary was established. For many years, under the name of the Anti-Tuberculosis Society, it minis- tered to the ill and needy when other nmzani-zed services were not

participation in world affairs. A goodly number of them are economic and political isolatlonists. One thing is fairly clear: Canadians need not hope for much tarrif-cutting by the United States Congress for at least another two years.

No Peace Prize"

A sad commentary on our vaunted 20th century civilization comes from Oslo, Norway, where the Nobel Prize Peace Committee has announced its failure to find anyone or any or- ganization worthy of its award for the years 1955 and 1956. This means that for the second consecutive year the cause of peace lacks a champion who could stand on equal terms with the specialists in the sciences and the arts. In medicine, physics and liter- ature there was no lack of worthy claimants to international honour. Indeed, in these departments the committee found it difficult to choose among the many deserving nominees. But in peace, on which in these days the very survival of the human race may well depend, no individual and no organization had done enough to merit the coveted prize.

For what it is worth. it may be stated that the Commonwealth was fairly well represented in the list of

individuals who had been mentioned in a report of a nominating commit- tee. Slr Winston Churchill and Sir Anthony Eden of Britain, Prime Minister Nehru of India and Prime Minister St. Laurent of Canada were given provisional places. Strangely, President Eisenhower was not men- ttoned, although Americans generally ngard hlrn as a great peaoemaker. In fact, only one American citizen, Buchman, the aged leader of

availalile. it. gave leadership in such matters as milk and meat inspection, sanitation and medical inspection in the schools, erection of a Sanitarium and a housing scheme for the poor. Always its doors were open to the dnderprlvilegcd for the supply of medical and other requirements. It cooperated with the various church organizations, and was particularly active durihg the Christmas season in providing for needy families. Its record, down through the years, is an inspiration to those who are now carrying on the work and our citi- zens will thoroughly indorse the ex- pressions of thanks tendered at the societyls closing meeting on Friday night.

EDITORIAL NOTES

No one will object to the pro- posed world tour of the Hon. Paul Martin. However, most Canadians will hope that the cabinet minister will refrain from making slighting remarks about the British and French Governments in the course of his travels. Building up good will for Canada does not call for passing moral judgments on our friends. Nor does it call for an exaggerated ap- praisal of the Canadian Govern- ment's role in the present crisis.

I O O

The Chinese Communist regime was strangely quiet. during the most critical phase of the Suez fighting. Its leaders have now come up with an original explanation for the whole grim affair: it was an American plot intended to clear the way for the United States to take over the Middle East under the gulsa of an inter- national police force. This may in- dicate the course the Communist bloc is planning to take in future negotiations.

Canada's Suez Plan

Judith Robinson In the Toronto Telegram

A plan for an international force strong enough to police the Middle East and manlntain order there was proposed in the House of Com- mons last January by the MP for Prince Albert, John Diefenbaker. It was not very heartily welcomed by Canada's Minister for External Affairs at the time. But it mull have grown on him. It is his plan now.

In a way it was ungenerous of Mr. Pearson not to reveal his con- version to it while the House of Commons was still sitting in Ot- tawa last summer. A good many

embe 3 of Parliament were al- ready pretty disturbed about the way things were shaping in the Middle East and several of them tried before the House rose to get a statement of the Government's line of thinking on Middle Eastern problems.

They seemed to feel that a re- sponsible governmenfl responsi billtics included that of keeping Parliament and people informed of problems and they did their best to get the information.

IN IIANSARD

The record of their failure is in the llansards of the closimt days of the session.

What sent a reporter hack to the Hsnsards was a story released from the Prime Minister's office in Ottawa yesterday about how

'?resldent Eisenhower had tele-

phoned from Washington to thank'

Mr. St. Laurent for Mr. Pearson's plan. The story says:

"Through his proposal for the

stablishmcnt of an international police force to restore and main- tain order in the Middle East, Mr. Pearson laid the foundation for the ceasefire agreement which e- ventually was reached yesterday."

Back to the Hansards:

Early in August, just after the Suez trouble broke, John Diefen- balrer invited Mr. Pearson to tell the House what proposals for necking its spread the Canadian Government would make or sup- port. Mr. Pearson having reject- ed the invitation Mr. Dlefenbskcr . sumed.

All efforts to guard the world's peace were being postponed. be

"Apparently until after the U.S presidential election. As I see it peace and its achievement should not be dependent on or suspend- ed by elections in any of the free nations."

Mr. Pearson did not any any-

thing. WAITING rron lJ.8.

Alistair Stewart, CCF member for Winnipeg North did.

"We and other nations," he sold. "find outselvcs prisoners of the United States political system. Whenever there is an election there. whether it is a presidential election or a congressional elec- tion. practically every problem in international affairs bogs down for at least six months or until these elections are decided. Why should wrhave to put up with this? We are a reasonably independent na- tion. Why must we always wait fia- the Americans to decide what they are going in do before we make up our own minds?”

Mr. Pearson bad no answer. or gve none. but one was sugar.-steed by the social Credit MP for Pros- cr Valley. A. B. Patterson:

"it would seen that perhaps we

I

are in a state of moral bankrupt-

cy.

Thus prodded Mr. Pearson "de- precated" Opposition suggestions that there was any difference on Middle Eastern policy between the United States on the one hand and the United Kingdom and France on the other and as for Canada, Canada was in favor of all the ob- jectives, on which all three govern- ments were agreed. -

N0 COMMENT

John Diefenbaker tried again. Was the Government of Canada in agreement with the governments of Australia and New Zealand which were supporting the Unit- ed Kingdom's objection to the il- legal seizure of the canal? Mr. Pearson did not care to say.

The MP for Kamloops, Davie Fulton. was next to try to pin lllr. Pearson to a policy. First on Suez and then on the Commonwealth. he failed like the others. but be- fore he gave up he said a piece:

"This Commonwealth means something or it does not. If we carry on with the policy of drift then it will not. be long till tho Commonwealth means nothing. and the attitude of the Government of Canda will have contributed more than anything to that disin- teizrafiorr if it (IDES take place-"

The Government point of view Is that expressed in the story of the Prime Minister's office about how much President Eisenhower admires Mr. Pearson's plan and its author.

TWENTY-FIVE YEARS AGO (November 13. 1931)

Judging was concluded in the Maritime Winter Fair yesterday and the largest number of awards wont to Prince Edward Island. A- mong the big winners were Horne Bros., Edgar Easter and Sons. Ar- thur Houston and S. L. Boswell. Hon. C. Shelton Sharpe, Minister of Agriculture. reported that the Fair was one of the most nuc- ccssful ever held.

As a result of recent negotia- tions a further reduction in the cable rate to points in the West Indies and South America have been lnauguraul by the Canadian National Telcgrnplis. from offices in Prince Edward Island. This reduction has been made to pro-

l-VEST RIVER CAUSEWAY

Sir. - Not infrequently, we no public enthusiasm whipped up to a ”white heat" over some such project as providing a park, a playground. or a swimming pool for persons. described variously as. underpriviliged, indigent, etc. However it is strange to note the apathy that seems to envelop the

minds of intelligent people from '

time to time, even, when right before their eyes events are tak- ing place, which should have aroused them to I 41 for ma concerted action.

Such is the attitude of the gen- eral public towards what is tak- ing place on the West River at New Dominion where the social- Icd causeway is being construct- ed. Said operation consists of

thousands of tons of good Island soil into the river, where a high percentsg of it is Immediately carried of by tho swift current.

So that your readers may know the facts. I shall hereby sum- marlze the situation as it now exists. and give a preview of what the future hold! for this project.

From the viewpoint of tho esthete. the magnificent West River stands alone on P.E.l. for its superb scenery. Its tortuous channel. carving those hairpin curves out of the Bonshaw hills; It's verdant banks, here sloping to the water, there rearing a rug- ged cliff to the elements. present to the outdoor lover a diversity of pastoral scenery, well able to

ompete with the best in the world.

To the commercial fisherman. the above river has provided lav- ish bounty for many years. Nu- merous famllies were nourished. clothed. and educated during tho past century solely on the revenue derived from the sale of a largo variety of West. River fish. The writer has many times seen in the vicinity of fifty oyster bolt! (visible from one spot) busily engaged in the harvesting of the delectable cmstacun. I would
