Situation Stiii Grave

It would appear that while the I)l'Cakt.IOWl'l in power services has created a serious emergency in Prince County. the situation is still worse in parts of Nova Scotia where floodim: rivers have forced niore than stittpcrsoiis from their homes, where a dozen major bridges have been washed out or damaged and where highways and rail lines liiiw hecn cut in every direction. South eastern New Brunswick has also felt the effect of the extraordinary iveather conditions. The total loss will run into several millions of tini- lars. At the time of writing no deaths-ihad been reported but this appears to be the only redeeming fcatuifgj)of' the situation in areas vrherei-;the havoc is most severe. Every effort will, no doubt; be made to give assistance to these com- munities.-Itmay be weeks before the full damage is repaired and there is always the possibility of g another storm interfering with thr- woivlcu One serious aspect of the su-

uatiion in this Province and no doubt in the other affected areas, is the disruption caused in rural areas where electrical power is used in dairying activities. Even water is unobtainable in many farm estab- lishments when the power is off, as , 'i the. oldtime hand pumps have long beeh out of service. Perhaps the present unfortunate experience will be serviceable in the long run, in underlining the need of maintaining emergency equipment of some kind in conjunction with rural electrifi- cation.

Parliament Meets

Matters of more than unusual interest and importance will con- front our members of Parliament in the session which opens today at Ottawa. Dominion-Provincial fiscal problems will no doubt loom large on the agenda. The conference call- ed ii few months ago to discuss this matter came to no definite under- staliding. and the Prime Minister has put forward new proposals to the Provincial Premiers which have not yet been divulged. Another great problem concerns the surplus in agi-icultui'al products, particular- ly wlicat; but equally important to this section of Canada is the potato marketing situation, and the urgent need for revision of our tariff pol- i icy with the United States in this respect.

'l”bis'year a, limit. of ten days has been set for the debate on the Draft Address. By this innovation It is hoped to curtail the time wast- ing that has gone on at every ses- sion. to the detriment of serious business. leaving at the end a mass of unfinished chores which go to swell the agenda for the next ses- sion. The Ottawa Journal complains that the Government has been nee,- ligeiit in the past. in not announ- cing its legislative program in the Thronc Speech zind placing it he- forc the House in order and on time. As an example the Journal cites the Senate Finance Commit- tee, which reports on the :ountry's fiscal position. and which last year wzp not set up until it wasitoirlaie to do its work properly.

-'0ttawn dispatches indicate that g one suhjt-ct that is sure to t'(lnlf' up p 'l Ion rlrhale is the sharp fall in the

' l immigration rate, 304:. fewer immi- grIntii having come in 1955 than had been expected. This. certainly. is it matter for parliamentary at- te tion. and It is to be hoped that ih will result in a strengthening of th Government's entire immigra- lo policy; for there is no doubt g t something has gone wrong with It. t in, of course, true that British- I and Bu-opeans have less reason - migrating to this country than . had in the immediate post- , period, now that economic con- in their own countries have - V for the better.

o

mat, however, is not the vuIOAsJ

story. ,. Just where the fault lips is not easy to ascertain. Persistent re- ports of arbitrary ' treatment aci corded immigrants who have been ordered deported for one reason or another are not calculated to win friends for Canada, in those coun- tries which might be expected to contribute to. our population in- crease. In many instances, appar- ently, those oidered deported are not even told why they are being sent out of the country; and IP' peals against the ruling are heard privately by selected itnmilritmn officials. It may be that in each in- stance the deportation order is Valid and justified; but in a free country, where even the most hardened crim- mat is given the right of defence in open court, it is incredible that this- right should be denied any landed immiumnt. Government by immig- rntinii offit-ials is not a democratic pi'iu-tire, whatever else it might be. It is IlUCOSSal'y not onlythat jus- tice be done in each- and every case but lii;tl no appearance of injustice hp ptililllillilfi.

It is reported now that steps are lining considered to that end. The sotmrr they are put in operation,' the l)t'llt'l'

Not The Solution

In it speech before the annual meeting of the Ontario Chamber of Commerce, Mr. W. V. M. Ash, Chairman of the Canadian High- way Safety Conference, made a couple of observalifions which de- serve widespread distribution. One was to the effect that bigger and better highways do not necessarily mean a greater, measure of high- way safety. although this sugges- tion hasbeen made by traffic ex- perts from time to time. On the contrary, according to figures cited by Mr. Ash, sutper-highways have more than their share of fatal acci- dents. On the Pennsylvania Turn- pike, to mention one instance, the deat-h rate in 1953 for a given num- ber of vehicle miles was 7.5, while the rate on ordinary highways was 5.1. Again, the ratio for the New Jersey Turnpike in 1952 was 6.1. compared with an over-all rate of 4.7. In 1953. however, this turnpike rate fell to 4.1, the Itate average for all highways.

opinion, which is substantial-ted by New Jersey authorities, was brought about by stricter lbw en- forcement, which calls for one man on highway patrol duty 24 hours I day for every nine miles of road. All of which leads Mr. Ash to the conclusion thaf vigorous enforce- ment is the best single solution of the problem. Perhaps it is. Cer- tainly, it is clear that, without im- provement in drivers' approach to safety.-either voluntary or en- forced-the finest roads that en- gineers can build will not reduce significantly the mostfrightful car- nage of our times.

EDITORAL NOTES

The dairy industry is of prime importance to this Province and there will be keen interest taken in the annual meeting of the Dairy Farmers of Canada which is to take place in Saint John, January 17 to 20.

In welcoming Marshal Tito of Yugoslavia to Egypt, Premier Nas- ser said: "True and lasting peace is attainable only when every coun- try, big or small, is given the right to lead its own life without outside interference". Now, if he and other Arab leaders would practice what 110 Preaches. and if the Israelis would follow the same laudable doctrine, everything would be nice and pcziccablc in the Middle East.

The account of the expenses in the 1955 British general elec- tion compares very fnvorubly with the one for the previous election in 1951. Among the leading Tories only the election of Mr. Butler cost more in 1955 than 1951-i841 agIlnIt E797. He was returned with I re duced majority. Sir Winston Churchill's campaign cost E700 against 5798 in 1951; Sir Anthony Eden's cost 2842 against I948.

The 13 new members of the

A breakdown of the list shows nine Liberals. one independent Liberal. one Progressive Conscr- vntive. one independent and one with no political affiliation.

Prime Minister St. Laurent. in making the appointments last July -first in'more than two years- stressed that the new senators were being sent to the upper cham- ber Is Canadians. not as adher- ent: of the Liberal party.

At that time the majority of the 13 WII known to have Liberal lean- ings or past or present ties with tliIt party. And one of the Ippointees, Senator John T. Hack- ett. 71, of Montreal. was known to be I Progressive Conservative, having represented the party in the Commons.

But it wIs I matter of conjecture until now as to how the others would llst themselves politically.

A succession of large orders by United States airlines in the jet tnnsport field given perspective to the swift rise in jet develop- ment. says The New York Times. Wlinf has happened in that American aircraft industry has become the world centre for jet

transport production. It was only '

I short time ago that we were genuinely worried by our apparent bIckwIrdness in this field.

Most of the major airlines have now signed orders for delivery of the great Douglas and Boeing airliners, which will rarry more than 100 passengers and cleave Lhe Iiriuves at speeds in excess of 550 miles In hour. The Boeing bu completed many test runs. Ind its performance outraces the imagination These gigantic gul- Icona of the sky cost as much I: I fair-slzcd ocean liner cost not many decades ago.
