When New Zealand's first parliament met, organized settlement in these south- west Pacific islands was just getting well under way. Pioneers began arriving in numbers in 1840 with Britain's annexation of the territory and the signing of the Treaty of Waitangi with the native Maoris. Previously the region had been largely ig- nored by Europeans, with the exception of a few sealers, whalers, and a small mis- sionary party sent out from Australia in 1814.

The march toward self government be- gan in the earliest days of colonization. In 1841 former administrative ties were cut with the tlmother colony" of New South Wales in Australia. New Zealand became a separate crown colony, with its own gov- t ernor and other officials appointed from London. Gradually the settlers won in- creased representation through elective of- ficers. Their first General Assembly in 1854 included 37 members of the House of Representatives and 14 Legislative Council- lors for a citizenry of less than 30,000. The problems of the delegates to the first ses- sion recalled those of early parliaments in this country. The New Zealand rep-

are here today and gone tomorrow, at much lower wages. It is also much better for the social order of the community, a mat- ter which means a great deal to farmers.

A Welcome Decision

Canadians of all opinions will welcome a decision made recently by President Eis- enhower. He refused a recommendation from his tariff commission which would have raised the U. S. duty on cod, haddock and other ground fish fillets; it would also have imposed a tight quota limit on the quantity of such imports. If the President had endorsed such restrictive measures, Canadian fisheries-particularly in the At- lantic-would have suffered heavily.

.In this matter, says the Winnipeg Free Press, self-interest points to the same view as common sense; everyone on this side of the border can recognize that restrictions and higher tariffs against Canadian fish would have created an artificial scarcity in the United States. This would have made fish dearer for the American housewife; and by doing so it would probably have

New Zealand's government developed

along familiar British lines. In 1907 the

nation, whose population is overwhelming-

ly of English, Scottish, Welsh and Irish

descent, was promoted from colony to do-

I minion rank, with partnership status in the

British Commonwealth. Since the upper

house, or Legislative Council, was abolish-

ed in 1951, the New Zealand parliament has

consisted of only one body, the House of

i Representatives, with 80 members. Maoris,

l s Polynesian race who came to New Zeal-

and some 600 years ago, have equal rights

with other citizens. Numbering about 124,-

000 in a total population of 2,000,000, they

situation, added to the condition of wide- spread unemployment across the border, led to illegal border-jumping by thousands of Mexican itinerant workers, who came to be known as "wetbacks". and who were glad to work for as little as fifteen cents per hour, whereas the average hourly

problem is causing much concern to Fed- eral and State officials; partly because the illegal workers are taking work away from 1003"? unemployed men, and partly be- cause many of them have been involved in crimes of one kind and another, thus adding to the burdens of police and social agencies.

From time to time sporadic efforts have be!" mlde by bolder patrols toiround up the illegal workers for deportation; theatl efforts, however, were not veryvsuceeaaful. Only a few of the ','wctbacks" were ciugiit, at any one time, and this meant that some

Those are the arguments with which President'Eisenhower dismissed the protec- tionist case. ”Canadi:-ins," says our Winni- peg contemporary, "will recognize their economic realism. Public opinion, in East- ern and Western Canada, can surely recog- nize that the same arguments apply north of the border, when it is some special inter- est in Canada that is hurt by competition and demands protection. And if we hope that President Eisenhower's point of view will triumph over protectionist isolationism in U. S. trade policy, we must ensure that our actions are based consistently on the same view."

Chief Constable Knight would ban jaywalking in London. He would ban walking across the street against the red light too. As there is no by-law here to force a person to walk circumspectly the chief says Jaywalking should be stopped.

Having to walk to the intersection is the custom of people in metropolitan cities. How- ever. as traffic is today, jaywalk- ing is definitely dangerous.
