FXGE 4 TUESDAY. MAY 27. 1953.

De GauIIe's Assurances It is not known at the time of writ-

come into power in turbulent France, but the call which he has recived from the powerful Conservative party lends colour to this assumption. The Gen- eral has not outlined any program. He has expressed belief that he can arbitrate the Algeriandispute, and enforce the arbitration agreement; but he has not made clear how, if he attains power, he hopes to govern. He is known as a stubborn man, but a brave. and honest one. Some faith must be put in his statements that he will not take power by force, destroy French democracy, or establish dicta- torial army rule. ‘

He has. given these assurances, among others, in recent statements: “When you assume the powers of the republic, this can only be those which ' the republic will have delegated to you. This is perfectly clear.” “As for the army, it is normally the instru- ment of the state, and thus it should remain.” “Have I ever attacked fun- damental public liberties? No, I re- stored them when they disappeared. How could you have me, at 67, start a career as dictator?”

Itis hard to believe, after these words. that the future of Flrench de- mocracy and freedom would be ser- iously threatened by any action of General de Gaulle. How the present party system would fare under his administration is another question. ‘

Mr. 'MacmiIIan's Itinerary

A Reuters dispatch from London says that the program for the visit of Prime Minister Harold Macmillan to the United. States and Canada has been announced, \' «

Mr. Macmillan will leave London by air on June 6 and arrive, all. being well, in New York thebnext morning. From there he will go on to Washing- ton where he will spend theinight. He willmtart talks with President Eisen-

hower on June 9. In the meantime, he will fly to Greencastle, Indiana, the birthplace of his mother, where he will ‘receive an honorary degree and make an address. He will also at- tend Commencement exercises--and, no doubt, receive another degree-—-at Johns Hopkins University- in Balti- more. . ' ‘

After his talks with the President,

V Mr. Macmillan will fly to Ottawa for

two days of discussions with Prime Minister Diefenbaker and other Gov- ornment officials. The Reuters report does not say anything about his ad-, dressing a joint session of Parliament, but, in all likelihood, this will be a part of the program, as the precedent was set when former Prime Minister Churchill visited Ottawa and sustain- ed when Sir Anthony Eden came.

Keen Tourlsl Competition A good case is made by the Can- A adian Tourist Association, in a brief presented to the Federal Minister

I of Finance, for a Tourist Establish-

ment Loan Act under which long term credit will be madeavailable to oxperienced and reputable operators who wish to improve or expand exist- ing tourist facilities. This is what many ‘of the Provinces are already doing, as a necessary aid in promoting ~ the tourist traffic provincially. There is no ques‘i.io_n but that tourism has reached the status of a major national industry today. Only wheat and news- print bring in more money from out- side Canada‘than do visitors.

The industry, it is argued, could mean a great deal more to Canada if It were more adequately equipped to meet‘ competition in the international market. ln the United States, for ex- ample. the tourist business in 1956 crossed about two-thirds as much as the whole agricultural and livestock Inclilslry, according to the U.S. De- . l‘;’{l‘l“"91ll 01° Commerce.

Canada formerly received the lar- K‘?-??‘l »‘ll‘«ll'P of the money which resi- dents of Ihc l."rliI.ed_ Slates spool visit,- lug other countries. This is no longer the case. Since 1953, Europe has at- tracted more U.S. visitor dollars than

I’,

Cana do even without counting the cost of I.l".5lllRp0l‘TEl'llnn. lnrleed. spend- ing by U.S. travellers in all countries outside the U8. has almost doubled since 1949. During the same period, U.S. spending in Canada inc1'ea.sed by only 23 per cent, while Canadian ex- penditures in the U.S. rose by 144 per cent. Spending by Canadians in other countries has reached such a. point that Canadians travelling in the United States and other countries took more than one-half billion dollars out of Canada in 1957. Canada’s de- ficit on travel account has totalled $161,000,000 for two successive years.

Among the reasons for this travel trend are the romance of distant areas, the speed of modern air travel, the premium on the Canadian dollar, and the comforts offered by ultra- modern facilities abroad. It is to this last point that the Tourist Associa- tion brief draws attention. Our tour- ist industry is composed mainly of small businessgs, many of them fam- ily enterprises. At present, the fa- cilities which are inadequate and out- moded are being compared unfavor- ably with the more modern establish- ments which have been built in other countries in the past few years. It is argued that while millions of dollars are being spent in Canada every year in tourist promotional campaigns, too little attention has been given to back up’ this expenditurewith a “product” of the highest quality. One of the ma- jor deterrents to plant improvement is the lack of adequate credit facilities which it is sought to remedy under the proposed legislation.

Mr. Dulles Again ~At a press conference U. S. Sec-

retary of State Dulles was asked these questions: “What plans do you

. have to protect our nationals in Le’-

banon if it should develop that the present Government cannot give them adequate protection? And would these plans be affected by present Soviet threats against outside inter- ference in Lebanon?” .

This was Mr. Dulles’ answer‘: “We are ' not deterred anywhere in the. I world from doing what we think is right and our duty by any Soviet threats.”

I-Ias Mr. Dulles forgotten the Hun- garian uprising-xin the fall of 1956 and how the United States refused to do anything to help these brave people—- except’ introduce innocuous resolu; tions in the United Nations--because of fear of Soviet threats? Surely not. And if he has,'we may be certain that I the Hungarians and the Yugoslavians and the Poles and the East ‘Ger- mans-—yes, and the Lebariese-‘—-rem- ember it well enough. Perhaps, this ’time, if the need arose, the American response would be different and more in accordance with what “is right and our duty.” But the Lebanese and the American nationals in Lebanon are probably not banking on it.

The Acodions OFIP. E. Island

(Isle Su-int Jean Until 1799) I

By Prof. J. Henri

Just 3 little over 350 years ago, the vast areas which now com- prise t e whole of the Dolminion of Can (la and all of the United States north of Florida, were an immense expanse of forest, plain and mountain, inhabited, heme and there, by Is few Indian trilo- es. There wene then no cities. no roads, no ehiirohes. -no schools, no governments; in l. word, al- most the whole North American continent from the Atlantic to the Pacilfic was an unlknown and un- broken wilderness awaiting the advent of civilized man. It was only in the early years of the seventeenth c ury that Europ- ean civllizatlo -came to its chores.

The tirst settlements were he- gun -by the French at Port Royal (now Annapolis) in 1604-1605, and at Quelbec, in 1608. The first set- tlements by the English were made at Jamestown, West Vir- ginia, in 1607, and alt Plymouth Bay, in Massachusetts, in 1620. In Europe, for lcenlzuries, France and Englland had been bitter ene- -mie-s, «and their colonists in the

New World believed that they '

should continue the conflicts of their mother countries. As a re- sult,- there was almost continual wanﬁane between the Evnglli-sh col- onists to the South and the French in the North.

FIRST CENTURY

In the first century of its exis- tence, Port Royal was attacked and sacked five times. Finally in 171.3, by the 'l.‘rea1',v of Utre~ch»t, New-foundlland ‘and Acadia were ceded to England, and only the islands of Cape Breton and Saint-Jean r e In a l n e d to the French. En “Newfoundland there were 7 small French parish-es; their inhalbitatns were removed to the island of Cape Breton. In Acadia, the French inhabitants remained. Finally in 1755, they were removed to the English col- onies along the Atlantic‘ seaboard.

Although Isle Saint-Jean had been discovered by Jacques Car- tier of St. Malo,-in 1534, France seems to have neglected it alllmost entirely for almost two centuries. It was only after the loss of Aca- dia that it assumed an impor- tant place in the French scheme of colonization. Nevertheless it was some years before the possi- bilities of Isle Saintalea-n as t source of provisions for the new

oognlized, and even when recog- nition came, it was -for-ced.upon the mother counllry by the offi- cials a.t Lou-isbdung and by the Acadians who sought new fields beyond the limits of English rule. _ ' Prior to 1720. no pennlanent French settlement: had been ef- fected in Isle Saint-Jean. Con- cessions of the island to various

speculatoa-s and a smalllll attempt ‘

alt -settlement Ibryga few Acadiams had proved abortive. ISLAND GRANTED In the month of August 1719, a grant of Isle Sajntuean was made to oomte de Saint-Pierre. First Equenry to the Duchess of Orleans, whose husband was re- gent of France during the minor- ity of Louis XV. In «return for this very genenous grant, colrnte do Saint-Pierre promised obedi- ence to the Comlman-der at Louis- bourg. He also undertook to loc- ate 100 settlens the first year and 50 each succeeding year until the island was completely populated and supplied with the necessary livestock. He was also to construct such noads as would be necessary for the public service. In case he had to build one or more chur- ches, he was to have the honour of Pa-tron. Failing the fulfilment of these condit'ion7s the concession would be voided and the island -would return to the Royal do- main.

Axtter obta=in:i.ng this concession oomte dc Saflnt-Pierre entered into a partnership with two rich speculators, Fanges and Moras of Rochefort. Farges supplied onc- hallf of the needed capital. Mora: one-quarter, and the concession of Isle SainIt- Jean was considered as equivalent to the other quarter of the capital of the company.

During the winter of 1720, the necessary preparations were made, and on.Alpcril 15, 1720, three

' of the company’s ships with 300 passengers, provisions and muni- tions. set out from Roch-efort to found a new colony in Isle Saint- Jean. Four months later. on Aug- ust 23, the ships arrlv in the harbour of port LaJoi (Char- lottetown hanborur). Immediately the lpeolple landed and in a short time they had cleared around for a village site; they built a few

log houses, erected banraicrkls ﬁoi-'

IF THERE Ill I. diabilc In V011!‘ home you must nlWa.VS bi‘ "11 *1}? alert for possible reactions In In sulin.

Whenever a diabetic who Is ta-king insulin behaves In an un- usual manner. and complalnsbf unusual sensation, think of an in- sulin reaction.

Morning lassitude and headache are mild reactions which ma.‘/1_‘€- gull, from a protamine zinc insulin.

MANY SYMPTOMS

Other symptoms of insulin re- actions include a feeling of faint- ness, palpltation. excessive per- spiration. lieadache. double vision hunger, emotional instability, trembling. unsteadinoss of gait and even stupor.

Sometimes the diabetic will suf- fer convulsion and become nau- seous and vomit during reactions. although such drastic reactions are fairly rare. .

The milder symptoms generally occur when the blood sugar is be- low 70 mg. When the count is under 50 mg. stupor might result. WHAT CAUSES REACTIONS?

-Any one of several things might cause such reactions.

They tend to appear when the diabetic takes an overdose of in- sulin. when he fails to eat a full

_ meal or when he does not eat at

the expected time.

When traveling by train. bus or auto, therefore, it probably is a good idea. not to take -an insulin injection until your next meal is deﬁnitely in sight. Delay in eat- ing following an injection might bring about a rather-severe re- oction. . .

In fact. any decreased need for insulin could mean. that a reaction might follow an injection.

When any of. these symptoms are noticed. It‘s best to act fast. Call your doctor and give the pa- tient orange juice or some other food containing from 5 to 20 mg. of carbohydrate.

Usually. the sugar will be ab- sorbed quic-kly and recovery can be expected within a few minutes.

‘Even though recovery is com-

plete, let your doctor know about the circumstances leadling up to
