Now. we are told, the United States is insisting on British and French withdrawal from the canal area even before the U. N. police force, such as it is, has taken up its allotted positions. This is another step in American policy to placate the Arab world at whatever cost may be necessary. If the logical sequence is maintained, we can ex- pect to hear that the United States has supported Egypt's demand that the British and French be driven out of the area by force. Since the UN. force is not strong enough for that assignment, the logical thing would be for United States' forces to intervene and help in the driving- out pi'occss. Then the world would witness the grim spectacle of Amer- icansvaiid of course Canadiaiisefin ing on. the British and Frencli and the British and French firing back in self-defciice, much to the Joy of the Soviet leaders who at last would see their great dream come true.

A totally unwarranted prediction of utter insanity in relations between erstwliile friendly nations? Let us hope so. But Aniei-it-an policy. anti of course Canadian policy, which is allied with it, will have to change diastically for the better before such a possibility can be ignored

Reply From Naples

In View of the graver issues iii-

lvolved, perhaps it is a matter of

small consequciice that Egypt has "humiliated" Canada as a result of the delay in sending the Queen's Own Rifles to join the UN. force in the Middle East. This charge was made in Parliament, however, and the Prime Minister choose to answer it. lie is reported to have declared, heatedly, that "neither Colonel Nas- ser, nor anything said in the Com- mons or Canadian newspapers trying to belittle Canada's part in the U.N. force was going to suggest that we have no right to have that glorious battalion continue to be called the Queen's Own Rifles."

Nobody in Canada, of course, was challenging that right or belittling the Queen's Own. But it is ironical that while the Prime Minister's words were being received over the

the English language perfectly. Why did he choose to speak ambiguously. with all the appearance of being "willing to wound and yet afraid to strike"? One would have more re- spect for forthright utterances at this time, whatever their import might be. The whole attitude of the Government is reflected in these off- beat generalitics, "so smug, so self- righteous, so hyprocritical," as one Opposition member nertinently re- marked.

A Grim Possibility

During the Second World War Britain and the United States swore eternal friendship. Since then it has been said many times by spokesmen of both countries that never would any quarrel develop into a serious rm and, although there would be differences of opinion from time to time, in no circumstances would either country take up arms against the other. Indeed, this has been said so many times that it is now gen- erally accepted as an article of po- litical faith. At least, it was so ac- cepted until two or-three weeks ago. Now. while full-scale war between the two countries is still so remote a possibility as to be scarcely worthy of conjecture, the possibility of fric- tion that might even involve shoot- ilng at one another is less fantastic than it used to be. We are living in topsy-turvy times, and what was foutsidc the category of possibilities

wire yesterday, another dispatch, from Naples, reported Canadian Army officer: in Italy as complain- ing that the Queen's Own Rifles would never be sent to the Middle East; that there had been sugges- tions the battalion should remove its shoulder patches to satisfy the Egyptians, and that "the morale of Canadian soldiers has already suf- fered enough." The only Canadian soldiers not sent to Egypt, the re- port added, are members of the Queen's Own.

With all due respect to the Prime Minister of Canada, the ring of truth in the Army officers' words makes his own words on this subject sound like a plugged nickel.

Quebec 8: And The Convention

By Patrick Nlchollll

Ottawa: The proviiit-iiil govern- ment of Quebec may attend as I solid phalanx at the Conservative Party convention here next month.

That national convention will meet to select a new leader of the Coiiservative Party. For this pur- pose, Quebec's "Union Nationale" party has been officially recognis- ed as being bona fide conservat- ive, by the Conscriative Party machine.

Consequently, Premier Illnurlce Duplcssis and all Union Nationale members of the Legislatiie Coun- oil and Legislative Assembly of Quebec may amend as full voting delegates - if they wish.

Mr. William Rowe, chief execut- iie of the Conservative national office here, and son of the party's icmporary leader, lion. Earl "ne- ault", has given me this informat- ion ln reply to my enquiries.

At a meeting of the national ex- ecutive on 2nd October, he told me, the resolution was ratified to permit any member of the upper or lower legislative chamber of Quebec to be given the status of an ex officio delegate at the nat- innal convention, on two condit- ions. These are. first, that he sup- ports the federal Conservative party. and second. that he in a member of the Union Natlonale. lie must also intimate his wish in be accredited as a delegate. FROM RED T0 BLUE

Thirteen Union Nntlonale M. L. As have already indicated their wish to be accredited as delegat- es, Bill Rowe told me. if. bruins to look as if Quebec proposes to turn Conservative in name as well as in fact.

Monsieur Duplcssis. lender and founder of the Union Natiunnlc, was himself elected leader of the

Quebec Conservative Party in 1933. three years before he founded the U N

There are no other near - Con- servative or would-be Conservat- ive parties, under any other name. in any other province, whose mem- bers are thus automatically qualif- ied to be voting delegates at the Conservative convention. Mr. Rowe told me. Premier W. A. C. Bennett of British Columbia responded to my enquiry emphat- ically that no supporter of his would be interested in an invitat- ion from the party which he him- self quit a few years ago.

There will also be 225 riding delegates and 75 delegates-st-large from Quebec. The latter will be selected to represent tlu profes- sions, farmers. the presl. busin- essmen and organised labor. Great lcurioslty hers awaits the naming of these delegates-at-largo. to see whether they will include the Dial- enbslier-for-lcsder group of prom- inent Quebecers. This group is one of the most ' ' aspects of the strong support reported for Prince Albert": M. P. as a lead- ership candidate. It consists of prominent Quebec residents. ro- preseniatlve of a wide variety of activities, must of whom boar names written deep in the his- tory of the Conservative Party. They are in many cases the was of former Conservative federal cabinet ministers from Quebec. who lhemselvcl have now return- ed enthusiastically to the Conserv- ative Party in support of John Dlefeiibaker. after many years of political disinterest.

MACHINE COLD SHOULDER?

I asked Bill Rowe whether all or

any of this group had been or

would be named as delegates. H:

replied that he knew of the move- ment, but had not yet seen a list of their names.

"if recommended." he declar- ed. "they should be appointed as delegates-at-large. We would wr.l- comc people of such eniinenc at the convention.” J

The iiomlnatiun of delegate -at- lnrgc from Quebec rests in the hands of the Quebec Conservative organisation. This is not a formal- ly or democratically constituted association, with elected officers. as exists in other provinces. it is a nominated and self-appointed agglomeration, led by Bob Per- ron, M. P.. Guillaume Pieito of Quebec City, Leon Biilcer. M. P. and others. Mr. Balcer is himself .1 candidate for the party leader- ship and Mr. Perron is said to be one of his chief supporters.

It is interesting to note that the only other federal Conservative M P's from Quebec, Bill Hamilton and Wilf Dufresne. are not prom- inently mentioned in this organisa- tion: they both support John Diel- onbakei"s candidature.

The Conservative leadership convention could acquire I unsal- ional stature in Quebec Province. and indeed in all Canada, through the presence of M. Duplessls and his followers and also of this group of bearer: of long - famous Conservative names.

While everyone doesn't have the sum bowel habits, I advise that you set aside a specilic time every day to answer nature's pail. If you can't find time in the evening, at up a little earlier in the morning. And don't be tense. Try to relax. your movements. endeavor to es- tablish ,, ' ity.

Regularity in eating is essen- tial also. If you eat all three meals at regular times each day your stomach will get to know when the food is coming.

it might be well to eat about the same amount for each meal. As a rule. it isn't advisable to est a big supper after consuming only a light breakfast and a light lunch.

To supply the necessary bulk, I suggest you eat plenty of fruits and vegetables, if you have no in- testinal trouble. Eat at least two different vegetables in boil: lunch and supper.

Potatoes are good, too. But don't substitute them for vegetables; eat them in addition to the others.

Either fresh or cooked fruits are good. And while fruit juices are fine, your body needs the na- tural bulk of the fruit itself for regularity.

Although meat. eggs, fish and poultry are low is residue, you need them to maintain a properly balanced diet.

PINT OF MILK

Milk also is essential. Drink at least one pint a day.

Among the visitors from this province to the Toronto winter Falr, who returned last evening were Hon. G. Shelton Sharp. Min- ister of Agriculture; Mr. J. W. Boulter. Secretary of the Potato Growers Association. anl Mr. Wal- ter Shaw, of the Department of Agriculture. Hon. Mr. Sharp re- ports the Fair a very successful one. especially in the number and quality of live stock exhibits.

TEN YEARS AGO (November 18. ms)

Prince Edward Island potato Growers who have been confront- ed for the past few weeks with serious financial loss because of lack of frost-proof storage space for a large part of their crop have found relief by shipping hundreds of cars to safe frost-proof storage in Amherst, N.S.. where they will be stored temporarily before be- ing marketed from Amherst.

Seven Polish soldiers who foiuzlil with Montgomery's Eighth Army arrived in the city last night to work on island farms. The men were met at the station by Mr. .l5 B. Murley. Manager of the loc- al National Employment Office, and the farmers for whom they had travelled thousands of miles to work.
