Canada-U.K. Trade

It is to be hoped that the Federal Government will find ways and means of translating into economic fact Prime liinister l)iet'enliaker's assertion that he would like to see this country switch l.'i per cent of her ptirciiases from the liniterl States to the l'iiitc(i Kiiigtloiii. As far as the ('nitcd States is coriceriied. with her nuiltit'aruitis trade tiutlcts scat- tered the the slight change would iiicim next to rititlung. She would still be this country's out- standing supplier of inaiuit'at-lured goods. a status which she is likely to occupy intietinitcly. no matter what may be done in the way of improving (inininonwealth trade re- lations. llcr proximity to Canada and her powerful industrial machine make that a virtual certainty.

It would. however. mean a great deal to the l'nitcd Kingdoni. Indeed, it would be the best possiblr stimu- lus to her economic strength. And there is evidence that British in- dusti'ial officials are counting on Mr. Diefcnbaker to go through with his tentative plan. Speaking in London a few days ago. Sir Robert A. Mac- l.ean. I Scottish industrialist and President of the Glasgow Chamber of Commerce. had this to say: "it is in Canada's power to close the sterling-dollar gap at any time she might choose to do so. A switch of only 10 per cent of her purchases from the United States to the United Kingdom would be more than suf- ficient for the purpose." He then went on to quote figures which shew- ed that Canadian per capita pur- chases from the U.S. had risen from 3193.20 in 1954 to 51271.60 in 1956, while over the same period per caplta purchases from the UK. rose only from 522.40 to 530.80. "Faced with these facts." said Sir Robert. "it must be asked how real is Can- ada's desire for increased Common- wealth trade." He added that "the members of the Commonwealth must realize that the I'nitcd Kingdom is no longer the rich motherland that nurtured them and which. while giving them self-government. stood massively behind them to forward their economic growth and, in large measure. to protect their shores."

All that is true enough. And, al- though thcre is supposed to be no sentiment in business, there is room in it for appreciation of past serv- ices. It was not the United States that laid the groundwork for this country's economic expansion. It was. in the main, British capital that prgvidcd the stimulus: and. until very recent years-and. in part. even then-it was largely Brit- ish naval power that provided secur- ity for ('anada's ocean commerce. These things are worth remember- ing. And if. by switching only if) or l3 per cent of our purchases from the l'nited States to the United Kingdom. we can help to restore sterling to its proper and historic place in the economic alfzlirs of the world. it surely is little enough to do. especially considering the fact that Canada's economy would not suffer in any way in the process. it would, on the contrary, be helped considerably. With more dollars to Ipend. the United Kingdom would eagerly increase imports of (Tana- dian wheat. apples, bacon and many other products.

"Open Skies" Aggrement

(lament by Canada to Mr. Dulles' "open skies" proposal made at the London disarmament talks last week was In essential part of the plan. Ind miy have an important bearing in obtaining Russian agreement. LII! Ipdng the Soviet Union had agreed in principle. and had proposed flit puff: of Europe and the West- on ithud Sm-s be opened to -3&1-llmection in return for in- of part of Russia.

yrhich would be created by aerial inspection between the U.S. and Russia, in which further disarma- ment negotiations might be profit- Ibly pursued; for much of the sus- picion between the two nations would dissolve if they came to accept one another's aircraft and airmen as I familiar sight. As the Ottawa Citizen points out however. there is another equally important factor. Even if the whole of Western Europe and the British and American bases in North Africa were opened to aerial inspection. the possibility of a sur- prise attack would not be eliminated. Missile launching sites on the ground can be hidden. Moreover. submarines and surface vessels can fire rockets with nuclear warheads. No amount of inspection could give a foolproof guarantee against a surprise attack by a nation bent on aggression. The thing to do first as Mr. Eisenhower has repeatedly suggest- ed is to create an atmosphere of mutual trust. and his "open skies" plan is designed to that end. That is why (lanadais consent to inspection by Russian aerial observers is ini- portant. Technically, it makes the proposal more feasible. Even if Alaska were in the scheme, use of Canada's northern skies would prob- ably be necessary if the project is to work. It will be interesting to see how far Moscow is willing to go in this first step toward disarmament.

Two American scientists, one near the North Pole and the other near the South Pole. recently spoke to each other by radio. Reception at both ends was said to be "as clear as I bell." It's a far cry from the utter isolation old-time explor- ers had to put up with.

Moscow Radio has described the four-power declaration on German reunification as "another scrap of paper." Judging by Soviet policy on this issue all along, nothing that the Western powers might suggest would have any chance of being accepted-except, of course. an ar- rangement whereby all Germany be- come a satellite of the Soviet Union.

The author of "Michael Stro- gaff" has not. in my view. been given the recognition Lhnt is his due. He has been relegated dis- dainfully to the children's Ituhor section and the fact that very young people are attracted to him should not cause us to for- get that the grownups like him too.

What Itrikes me first and fore- ! most in Jules Verne in his hu- mor. He began his literary ca- reer as I writer of fantastic nor- ies in the style of Edgar Allan Poe. This surf in fiction left I lasting element of fantasy in him which was combined with Imazing scientific knowledge. erudition and divination: this makes Jules Verne one of the precursors of the discoveries of our time.
