u . ll Bright News

It scents that almost every day lliiw slime "bl'lghl-" Plece of news am-lit the Middle East situation comes over the wires'. 3-lld U-Wall): it is attributed to the Lnltcd 513195 Secretary of State. Mr. Dulles' latest bit of cheer has to do with the Sale passage of an American tanker through the Strait of Tiran to the Israeli port of Elath. This is the strip of water which the Arabs Claim as their own and from which tll9.V have sworn to bar Israel's ShlflDl"E- Mr. Dulles' reasoning appears l0 510 something like this: If an American

without let or hindrance from the Egyptians or Saudi Arabians. that establishes the right of innocent pas- sage for the ships of all nations, in- cluding Israel. And if an.vbody-C0l- Nasser, for instance-thinks other- wise, he is going to have A hard time proving It before the World Bank, should Israel decide to take the case to that body.

There are times when Mr. Dulles appears to think that the Israelis are lacking In ordinary common sense; and this is one of them. An American tanker, sailing with the power of the United States Mediter- ranean fleet behind it, is one thing; and at no time have the Arabs threatened to fire at American tank- ers. An Israeli tanker. sailing In de- fiance of Arab protests, would be quite another, especially In view of the fact that at no time has Presi- dent Eisenhower or Secretary Dulles stated categorically that the United States would protect Israeli shiPPlll8 from Arab attacks.

While on this subject It is in-

teresting to note that External Af- fairs Minister Pearson has stated that "any Egyptian attempt to,bar Israeli shipping from the SUEZ Canal would meet with Canadian 'disap- proval', because such Action would be contrary to United NatIons' reso- lutions." In the light of past events, if there is anything in that to hearten the Israelis, it certainly does not appears on the surface. Just what effect Mr. Pearson's "disapproval" would have on the Egyptian Gov- ernment there is really no way of telling, for there has been precious little of it so far. But as far as U.N. resolutions go, Colonel Nasser has shown on several occasions that,he does not think they are worth 1 moment's thought.

From The Air

A new method of locating shoals of fish from the air was tried out recently by a commercial firm in the 'i'niIcd Kingdom. An echo-sounding ilevicc, known as a ”flshfinder", was fitted in the cabin of a helicopter and attached by a cable to A detector in a homh-shaped container which was towed on, or just below, the surface of the water. The cable was fitted with a weak link so that it would automatically break if the container became entangled with a submarine object. When underwater objects were detected, A signal was transmitted to the helicopter above.

So far the device has been used chiefly for mine-location and salvage work, but plans are being studied for A service to Assist fishermen by Informing them of the exact position of fish choals. It is hoped that this will reduce. unnecessary steaming time and thus provide more plenti- ful. fresher and cheaper fish. Further trlalsaictobcmadetoasscssths cost of operation of the system.

A Novel Plan

Mr. Walter P. Reuthcr, President of the United Automobile Workers lof America, Angcrcd and dismayed by dlscfcmrel of corruption In the International Teamsters Union, has proposed A iioycl plan for IIf!luIrd- buthelntegi-ltyofthatpnrfoftbe

board for union members against any decision of the Executive Boaid. The membership of the new group in- cludes a Roman Catholic Monsignor, A Methodist Bishop, A Jewish Rabbi, two educators and A Circuit Court Judge. They will make periodic re- ports to the union and to the public on the broad question of the ethical code contained in the union's con- stitution.

This seem like an idea which all labour unions might Adopt to the benefit of all concerned. After all. unions those days have A direct re- sponsibility to society. Under the best leadership. such complex or- ganizations from time to time are bound to run up against difficulties in the way of ethical adjustment. It is only right that they should hate the benefit of counsel and guidance front outside their own ranks.

On A recent drive to his estate in Gettsyburgh President Eisenhower gave orders to his driver to "keep within the speed limit at all times." The order resulted from public crit- icism of A previous journey in which the President's car exceeded the limit by as much as 20 miles an hour. All this in A country where all men are suposed to be equal under

So far this year American farm- ers have withdrawn about 21l-'.- mil- lion acres of land from production under the soil bank agreement. This will net them more than S600 mil- lion under the terms of the agree- ment. It seems shocking that so much land must be made unproduc- tive at a time when half the world's population is in a state of semi- starvation. O O 0

According to a Washington cor- respondent, President Eisenhower sldestepped A great chance to take A strong stand for Canada in the Norman case this week. His oppor- tunity came Wednesday, when he was Asked at his weekly press conference to comment on the "propriety" of A U.S. subcommittee airing charges of Communism Against Canada's diplo- mat. It was Elsenhowel-'s first press conference since the Norman suicide and it provided him with an opening to throw the powerful Influence And authority of his presidential office into the defense of the Canadian Government and the late Ambassa- dor. Instead, he explained the division of powers of govemment In the U.S., talked of the "rights And privileges” of Congress. uttered some fligh- soundlng words About Condo and said he thought tho Norman cue nssultcd from "ildyIl1IIIoI” Iml

PUBLIC FORUM

This column is open to tbs discs. Inn by correspondents of qllutlu H Interest. Thu Gunrdinn does not uscno AA:-lly endorse Ibo opinion in porno pondenlo.

THE MUSEUM QUESTION

Sir, - Mr. Palmer states in ills letter published on April Sill, that one of the aims of the Historical Society is to establish A lnuscum. This. as I have said. is a worth while prnjcct. But I should think that the main aim of an historical society should be to preserve and display items of historical interest.

Mr. Palmer also stated in this column that the Historical Society was desirous of having a place to display their items. and this was what motivated me to announce publicly that we would accept items from him for display. We have A museum and the Historical Society does not. However, it has become apparent that the main aim III the liisiurical Society is not to have A museum. but to have the museum at Charlottetown.

Apparently Mr. Palmer is of the opinion that if the Historical Soci- ely were to loan us items for our museum, and then have to tAke them back for A museum in Chat- lottetown. thcn our museum would have to close for the want of items to display. If this is the case, then let me assure him that he need have no fear. as we are receiving wonderful support as far as items are concerned. To date we have re- cciu-d items from Summerside to South Lake, but as he states that he cannot recall having received items from Montague, neither have we received any from Charlotte- town, although several persons front (Iharlultclown have stated their desire to place items with us when the museum is opened.

we have been asked more than once why we put "Charlottetown" as our head office on our incor- porallon when we applied for the name of ”P.I-1.IslAnd Museum." There were two reasons: Firstly, that persons in outlying areas would be more willing to give llcms - to a Provincial museum. and Sec- ondly. if II larger museum were constructed at Charlottetown. we could in turn become A branch of that museum. How- ever, if .VIr. Palmer is the opinion that the head of- fice should be at the location of the must activity. then we would have been happy to shift the main office to Montague.

Different aroups seem in feel that it is Almost entirely A responsibil- ity of the Government to finance A museum. I think it is apparent from Mr. Macbonaldis budget that there Is little room for additi- onal cxpcnrlitures to cover the cost of A new museum. But I do feel that an Additional approach should be made by Interested parties to the Federal Government. I might say at this time. that we approach- ed the Provincial Government; not to have them build A museum. but to make A small grant towards the construction of one. This re quest was refused, but rather than sit back and wait, we have forward Alone.

As far As experience is concern- ed-lhcre is no doubt that we Are lacking. However, we have been In contact with several museums And have received And Accepted many worth Ivlillc suggcsttals which we on put to good use. Along with Mr. PIllIIII"l suggest- lons re listing And elonlficntlonl. which we .

it would seem that Mr. Dulles has not actually denied the state- ments made about his Aswan Dam policy in the new biography by John Robinson Beal.

in his biography of Mr. Dulles, Mr. Real says that when the State Secretary dramatically withdrew American offers to help finance the Aswan Dam he was mnklng "A truly major gambit in tho cold war."

He was, In effect, trying to bring about A showdown in the Middle East. Russia had been making counter offers to help build this dam on the Nile. If the United States withdrew its offers. the hol- lowneiis of Russia's economic pre- tensions would be displayed for all to see. For RussiA'A offers would callapse.

Once A book appeared contain- ing such statements. it was Inevit- able that Mr. Dulles would be "questioned. The questioning cams this week at Mr. Dulles' news con- ferencc.

FARMEIl8' DIFFICULTIES

Sir. - In A recent speech mado

by Mr. Frank MAcNutt. M.l...A.. Prince County. he said he thought there was too much stress made on the potato growers. also many fnrmers could get along with A small acreage And keep hogs. the feed for which could be delivered at the door. Also he knew of A number of farmers who were mak- ing real good money from hog raising. May I Ask didl Mr. Macblult try raising bags at today's feed prices And low prices for the finished product? If not I Ask him to take pen and paper And sit down for A few minutes and figure it out. Last fall the farmer had to pay from 315 to 817 for each pig; then paid 33.85 per loo pound mg for the feed at the plant-About 10 cents more If he had it trucked to his farm-And it takes about I bus of feed each to bring the hogs to market weight. At the price pork is now from experience I know those hogs will Average About 345 each.

If he breaks even he is doing OK. but I'm Afraid he will find himself in debt to say nothing about his time and labor. The farmers who are mAking good money must have some secret we Easlcrncrs don't know about. or else we'd better move to his County.

lim afraid the poor farmers would have quite A time raising A family And trying to educate them so they may have A chance to make A decent living for them- selves when the time comes.

I ilrlnk he will realize the former musi grow potatoes In order to live or else quit Altogether And move to the towns And cltles And work for A while. And If he gets laid off he can draw unemploy- ment AA mAny Are doing now.

Some folks wonder why so many of our young people Are leaving the farms. Well, when A fnrmcr Aclls pork for Around 28 cents per pound And buys bacon for I cents per pound. or About four cents per iillce: and grows potatons which cost blm About sioo per It?! to grow. not counting his time, bArd labor of l'ilmscl' his wife And fun- lly. not knowing If he will even make expenses. why?

Mr. Dulles replied: "I think that question may be answered in the negative." This would ,, to be A denial. Mr. Dulles -- ' I f that several -canons had led to tho I decision. For one thing, the seam had resolved that no U.S. fundA could be used in the coming your for the dam.

For Another thing. the Egyptian economy would bnve had to under- go Austerity for many yeArA to meet the Egyptian Anne of the cost. This would cause discontent ,and "the foreign lenders" would have been blamed.

This. it would seem. Is practical- ly what Mr. Benl says. Egypt At that time was trying to blackmail the United States Into huge finan- cinl payments, on the ground that Egypt would otherwise turn to Russia for help. Mr. Dulles had de- cided to call this bluff. He would demonstrate not only to Egypt, but to All nations. how very hollow .ltusslAA economic offers really
