Toward Greater Unity

We are told by Donald Creigh- ton in his Life of Sir John A. Mac- donald that. when the Canadian delegation left. Quebec for Charlot- tetown on August 29, 1864. they had only the vaguest notion of what their reception was likely to be. The Maritimers. gathering to discuss I union of their own. might be simply annoyed by this intrusion. The whole affair might have a most deplorable ending.

‘And yet. at the. same time." says Creighton, “it. was impossible not to regard the meeting at Charlottetown as I divinely granted opportunity. The Canadians might. succeed. though their mission was strictly unofficial: and if at the end of the conference there seemed a reasonable prospect that a general federal union could be formed. then it would be easy to call a formal conference on the subiect.

‘-'The great thing was to con- vince the Maritime-rs: and. as the ‘Queen Victoria‘ travelled slowly down the Gulf of St. Lawrence to- wards Prince Edward Island, the Canadians must have been franti- cally busy. putting the last, touches to their federal plan and deciding who had best speak on this or that phase of it.”

It, was because they succeeded in their mission. of course. that Charlottetown became the Cradle of Confederation and that gOvernment leaders and other dignitaries from all parts of the Dominion have as- sembled here for today's big cen- tennial event.

The visitation of a century ago was unforseen and unprovided for. But however negligent. Prince Ed- ward Islanders may have been in welcoming the Quebec delegation " arrival. they made up for it in the succeeding days of the conference and we have Macdonald's own words of thanks. at. the ban- quet preceding their lcave-taking. for the warmth of the hospitality they had enjoyed.

In today's reenactment of these memorable proceedings there will be no “visiting circus" to distract ' ion. Not cven the three-ring which Ottawa is providing will dim the lustre of this great nat- ional event. Let. us hope. indeed.

that. it. will prove an inspiration to

the kind of unity that will carry us triumphantly forward in the years ahead.

Works Both Ways

fTbe reviving strength of pro- tectionism in the United States Con- grpss is said to be causing concern ItiOttawa. In voting money for the wpstruction of urban transport

systems. for example. the Congress

inserted. at. the last minute, a clause forbidding the use of foreign mach- ' inory or materials in such projects. This violates the basic principles

I. I. oflthe General Agreement on Tariffs , and Trade and is. in fact. a minor bulk definite breach of contract, as

the Canadian government sees it. ‘ Cipiada had hoped to sell some com-

'. patients required in the new trans-

'po’mtion facilities. w it is for— In by law even to compete for business by tender.

00 per j

cause of trouble is not foreign oom- petition but continuing overcapac- ity at home. Beef herds and beef production have expanded tremend- ously in recent years. Cuttlemen have used imports Is I scapegoat and, with national elections coming up. have successfully forced their views on Washington.

But there is another side to the picture. with which Ottawa should be equally concerned. As the Win- nipeg Free Press points out. it will be difficult for I Canadian govern- ment to enter the court of GATT with complaints on the score of trade restrictions. Canada maintains strick quotas on Asiatic goods. and its anti-dumping law—however non- discriminatory it may be in theory —pr0vides an effective barrier against British imports. On foreign investments it enforces a unique system of tax discrimination.

“In reality." complains the Win- nipeg Liberal organ. “no serious attempt has been made by the Pear- son gOvernment. to repeal the in- direct. creeplng protectionism of its predecessor. And any American who reads the speeches of Mr. Walter Gordon will find there the exact parallel of the old high-tariff argument in the Congress."

Challenging Report

Government. inaction and public

. apathy are blamed by the Ontario

Association of Housing Authorities for the fact that 750.000 Canadian families are forced either to live in dilapidated and overcrowded houses or pay an excessive portion

1 of their income to escape bad hous-

ing. Surely some official notice should be taken of this challenging statement.

It. is contained in a 100,000-word report resulting from a two-year study by a team headed by Prof. James A. Murray of the University of Toronto. The report recommends. among other things, the appoint--

‘ ment of a. Federal Minister of Urban

Affairs and Housing, 3 similar min- ister at the provincial level and I

‘ National Housing and Urban Ad-

' target.

visory Committee, and it cites glaring evidences of the need for taking action along this line. Present legislation. the study finds. offers little hope of meeting the “distressing housing circum- stances of thousands of Canadian families." In order to achieve good housing for all Canadians by a 1980 4.000.000 new or rehabili-

. tated dwellings will be needed. in-

cluding about 1.000.000 subsidized for low-income and ill-h o u s e d families.

There is a misapprehension. says the report. that. public housing is a penalty suffered by those who are

ineffective in character, ambition.

and worthiness. “In many cases." it adds. “the truth of the matter

' is quite different—the cost. of land

and buildings. the cost. of money and the. cost of operation and upkeep simply do not equate with the earn- ings of many Canadians."

Another false premise is that low — income housing imposes a crushing burden on the economy. “It would appear,” says the report in this connection. "that curnent

levels of non-recoverable expendit- ? ures by government on housing are

. something

I l

like one-thousandth of the total g0vernment expenditures.”

Wouldn‘t. it be to Parliament's credit. at. this time. if instead of wrangling for weeks over a flag de- sign it gave some consideration to this urgent problem. so much more important to the people concerned and to the nation at large?

EDITORIAL NOTES

One of the improvements worth noting in Charlottetown this year-— and it is I very important on. is the constant attention that is being given to street markings for the safety and convenience of motor traffic. This work. we understand. its in charge of Police Sergeant bowling. and he and his men are doing a praiseworthy job.

The cheapest daily “news” paper in Canada has the piuful- g ly small paid circulation of under 5.000, and its readership , has fallen off so severely that 3 its print run has been reduced by 3.000 copies in the past two ‘ years.

This daily print is "Hansard' . which is the official verbatim report of the proceedings in the House of Commons. It is print. t ed five days each week. report- ‘ ing the questions and debates of the sittings held normally on Monday through Friday. Al- though the debates cnniinue un til 10.30 pm. most nights.

CORRECTED VERSION

Sir—.Recently in the flag debate, Mr. Gordon Churchill1 raised doubt concerning color scheme in the modified arms of Canada reported by his colleague the Honourable Ellen ' Fairclough on Octobf‘r R. 1937. ‘ In her announcement Canada's national emblem was shown ‘o . be three red maple 'eaves ‘ conjoined on one Siem on wh‘te field. Mr. Churchill re- ferred particularly to evidence presented by me in l945 lo the joint Senate and House of Commons Committee on Not- lonal Flag.

When Queen Victoria in 1868 assigned three gold maple leaves on green to Ontario. and three green maple leaves on gold to Quebec. she in effect reserved hree red maple leaves on white for the Domlm ion of Canada. The Canadian Almanac of 1896 recommen- ded that Canada‘s national flag contain three red leu- ves on a while roundel. The royal visit of 1939 was marked by white banners Ind shields charged with three red maple leaves conjoined. The veter- issued three ted maple leaves on silver. Her Majesty's flag as een of Canada created by the Coll- ege of Arms in film shows as its principal motif three maple leaves conjoined on w

w.

The corrected version of the Canadian Red Ensun shows three red maple leaves on one stem on a field of white. Th 3 a harmonizes with the armori sl proclamation of George V. There is no possible doubt as to the authenticity of our nIti‘onIl emblem or col- ours.

Wo’rer Level Worry

Canadians complain of I dry: Summer and yellowed lawns: without any real anxiety about drought. The rains will come and the lake fill again: that they take for granted.

The terrifying prospect is that even with tie boon of generous , Canadians no longerl can take sufﬁcient supplies of; water for granted. This is not I ‘

i dislanl alarm. In Montreal bar-

or the water levels have been [ uncomfortably low for shippingl this year. The Dominion Govern- ‘ ment has given Ontario and Que- 0 its plans for coordinated

e; for purposes of water level 4 control. More depressing than 4 yellowed lawns in Ottawa have; been reports from the Lakes of: harbors that never filled with water this year and of grass

l The anxiety about water lev-l

II is such that methods ofi bringing the waters of Hudson Bay to the South are seriously examined. Yet the control of water supplies available still appears more sensible than im- portation from new sources. Governor Kerner- of Illinois at I recent Montreal conference pro- mised the support of Ill gover- nors of mldwestern slates protecting the shared natural resource of water in the (hut Lakes.
