* Provincial Liberals have crossed tHe Rubicon on the question of how the Northumberland Strait cause- way should be built. They are un- alterably opposed..says Liberal Op- position Leader Matheson, to it be-

® built without facilities for rail-

y traffic, also to having it built

ob fany private firm.

_

»A--year ago such a statement suld have had little meaning, as at tliat time there*was no agitation for biiiding the causeway except with Hs and as a government project. J BI today we don’t know where the orities stand on the matter, fed- m) or provincial. We now know fere™the. provincial, Liberal Op- pimition members stand, and we nmend- them for having told_us fhout any pettifogging reserva- Ss. » As Mr. Matheson conceded, it is 1 that rai) service will eventual- lgebecome a thing of the past: But ., piper means than road transport ist -be provided for some time to same, and it is a federal respon- lity to see that this provision is fade. Nor can the Government ab- favate its rights to any private We are in full agreement with th these statements. Even if we eed, we would still feel ob- ed to commend the provincial berals on setting forth their ition in such \elearcut terms.

Whether they do or not. have cut through the fog se as they are concerned, and we n’t have’to wait now to know what y're to say when it comes rpg tr © ' Mr.. Matheson says rightly that 2 public should be made aware of » whole situation. We detect, how- Wer, a little bias in his further m that “it is up to the Provincial vernment to make a statement or mmitment on the whole plan,” i that the Government of Canada o, “if it has anything to say the causeway, should come and say it.” That, surely, is ting the cart befure the horse. The onus of making a policy tement about the causeway is jinly on the Federal Government; Provincial Government’s re- bnsibility is to make known its shes with regard to that policy, fe provincial Liberal leader has his friends-at Ottawa down too thtly here.

lege as its main components. The Government would provide both 4 land grant and capital grants to enable Prince of Wales College ‘to relocate administration and class- * roomefacilities, also funds sufficient to build and equip a joint new science building. .

It would also guarantee loans for capital construction for the academic needs of the new University, and make operating grants heginning at $300 per full term enrolled student per year. As an immediate ob- jective, the report urges that the Prince of Wales College Act 1964 be proclaimed, that a board of gov- ernors be appointed and that they proceed to provide for four years of college courses in that institu- tion. ;

The report is lengthy and well documented, and it is impossible to do justice to the scope of its recom- mendations here. Its appearance is timely in view of the forthcoming opening of the Législature, for it is a matter which will require a great deal of study and attention at the legislative level. It is to be hoped, too, that our citizens gener- ally will give careful thought to its implications.

The commissioners state that they have endeavored to carry out their assignment “within the con- text of the economic potential of the Province.” But there may be a wide difference between our poten- tial and actual prospects in this re- gard. The nature of this problem can be judged from the comment already offered by Opposition Leader A. W. Matheson, to the ef- fect that the very first recommenda- tion of the commission—that more of our “net provincial revenue” be allocated “for @ducation at the uni- versity. level—is nullified by the fact that there can be no “net revenue” in a proyince which has ‘Been operating on a deficit for years

The financial hurdle will cer- tainly be the most difficult one to clear. We must face the fact that it may very-well involve higher taxes at the provincial level. On the other hand is the fact that we can-.. not expect to stand still in ‘the matter of higher education. We must either move forward or fall back.

Goldwater Yields

For Barry Goldwater it has been a short reign as U.S. Republican, party kingpin. Just six months ago last Friday he reached the top of the heap by winning the GOP nomination as President. His vic- tory marked a sudden ascendancy

+-of the right-wing over-the-moder-

ates and liberals who previously held control of the party. Now he is out of public office and has lost the party control for which he fought so hard.

The downhill slide that began- “with the Republicans’ election de." bacle ended, reports the New York Times,-on the same patio of Mr. Goldwater’s Phoenix home where he declared his Presidential can- didacy a year ago. There, last week, he announced surrender in the fight to keep Dean Burch, his hand- picked lieutenant, as Republican National: Chairmna. » Mr. Burch, a young Tuscon at- torney, had become a focus of mod- erate and liberal opposition’ which. . insisted a “new look” was needed if the Republicans were to rebound at the polls. It was through Mr. ’ Burch that Goldwater retained in- fluence on the party apparatus. To the opposing Republicans Burch wag. therefore a symbol of a re- jected cause.

Two weeks ago Mr. Goldwater said he would fight for Bitreh, de- claring that “for the publican party to turn its back our cause now would be to d y the two- party system.” But subsequent nose- “counting among National Committee mem bers—who had scheduled a showdown in Chicago Jan. 22-23— convinced him that it would be un- wise to pursue this course. He has

| announced’ that Burch would re-

sign in favor of Ray C. Bliss, the Ohio Republican chairman’ who has been pushed for the job by the anti- - Goldwater forces. ne One factor in this decision was

“Can atiyone doubt that Cana- da stands at a crossroads in her history? This is a

The road of the government in recent years will lead Canada to the virtual ex- tinction of Parliamentary gov- ernment; .towards national dis- unity;» and expose future gener- ations to the possible liss of na- tional independence. We must bring to Canadians a faith in their fellow Canadians and a faith in the future and destiny of this country.

Is Tattooing Intelligent?

fy Dr. Theodore R. Van Dellen

The tattooing craze among young men is greatest in war | times. Sailors regard it as &) tradition of the sea or a souven- ir of their travels. But 99 out of 100 never would do it again if they had a choice. Many studies have been made to determine the motivation. In addition, the

type of design offers clues to | —

psychologists and psychiatrists | about the personality of the in-- dividual.

A man gets drunk and wakes up the next morning with a dag- ger on the arm or a ship on the chest. It is difficult. to believe that, in this condition, he select- ed the dagger or ship because | of a personality defect. In other | words, many normal, stable persons are tattooed because of | group pressure while ig service or at school. These men learn their lesson and rarely want an | encore.

But .the’ “maladjusted go for this kind of decoration or status symbol. A weak or small’ man gets a boost from ‘such embell- ishments because he uncon- | sciously associates them with stronger men. The neurotic as- pect is shown by the frequency of tattoos among criminals and individuals with neuropsychia- ric problems. The person with several tattoos often has — per- sonality characteristics that re- flect his choice of design. Those with passive or effeminate traits try to make themselves look supermasculine

There is much to suggest that tattooing represents an_ overt rebellion against authority Tai- tooed draftees during World

War Il had a higher rate of | emotional problems than did other service men. Criminolo-

gists are aware of the signifi- cance of these decorations. One authority said tattooing is ‘“‘a reversion to the savage instinct in the criminal himself.”

This hospital has a self-styled | elite group and a requirement | for membership is tattooing. These home- made marks are produced with a safety pin and India ink. A ‘‘sharp doll’’ must have her boy friend's name tattooed on some part of the, body; the men like the pachuco | tattoo in the web of the hand to show they are “‘tough guys.” This in-group at the institution represents the trouble- makers | and the violations they commit | are calculated and not impul- sive.

Workers To Europe

everybody else. — Calgary He- rald.

Milwaukee Journal

West Germany, claims the en- viable distinction of having from two to three job openings for every unemployed person.

Although public and private employment agencies: have re- cruited more than a million for- eign workers— from Italy, Spain, Turkey, even Japan— some 750,000 job vacancies re- main unfilled. One Munich news- paper suggests that the hunt for workers be extended to the Uni- ted States, where the unemploy- ment rate , still hovers around five per cent. An industrial offi- cial in Frankfort suggests that firms founded in Germany with American capital should be per- mitted to use American labor.

Behind this labor scarcity— a condition which, incidentally, exists in Sweden and some other European nations— is a

continuing high rate of econom.- |

ic growth. A particular reason

for the impressive German per- formance is relative wage-price stability. Since wages, as a rule have not risen above productiv- ity, costs and prices have been held in check. This has put West German industry in a strong competitive position, sti- mulating plant modernization and expansion of industrial ea- pacity.

One interesting side effect of the situation is the reception ac- corded automation. Opposition is virtually nil. German trade unions, for the most part, are eager to co-operate. In some in- stances where automation has eliminated workers, labor and Management are co-operating in retraining programs. The

general experience has been, however, that automation ex- pands production and creates more jobs
