By Way Of Contrast

Following a recent blast in the Soviet press at the way Russian citizens are being treated in Canada. the press attache in the Soviet Em- bassy at Ottawa. Vladimir Grigoro- vich. called a press conference last week to deliver a harangue on the same theme’ It seems. poor man, that he is being hounded by RCMP security and intelligence men who

follow him around so closely that he |

seldom has a private moment.

In view of recent espionage revelations. resulting in the expul- sion of a Soviet diplomat and cor-

respondent from the country, Cana- :

dians mav feel that a little extra precaution along this line is not un- called~for But Mr. Grigorovich is quite worked up about it. By the nature of their duties, he feels that he and his associates must maintain contact with a wide variety of people. and..snooping ‘on their activities— as he says the RCMP is doing-—is simply not cricket.

He must have been disappointed at the way in which Canadian news- men reacted -to this. appeal to their sense of justice and courtesy! They

‘reminded him. in their columns, that |

uncomfortable as he and his col- leagues may be under this form of supervision, at least they are in no danger of being thrown into prison for questioning without any charge being laid. Much luckier, that way, than foreign correspondents in Mos- cow who, half a century after the Revolution and 12 years after Stalin's death. are still kept away from any contact with the Russian people. Those who seek such contact do so at their peril. A notorious. case was that of ~ Prof. Bafgehoorn of Yale, who was arrested in 1963 because he was try- ing to talk to Russians and conduct an innocent survey.. He was released “only at the personal intervention of the late President Kennedy. And last April a British lecturer in the Russian language. Gerald Brooke, was, arrested with his wife when “they went’to visit the home of a Moscow librarian. Mrs. been released, but Mr. Brooke is still

-in a Moscow prison, although, thus |

far, no charges have been preferred against him. . Perhaps Mr. Grigorovich’s audi- “tors kept thinking of these incidents, -and of what a reliable correspondent “in The Economist of London had to -report on the subject: “Sad to say, " Moscow is still a city where a foreign visitor, even when travelling with an organized group. can be hauled away ‘to an unknown prison and subjected _to gruelling questioning for weeks on end without any communication with his consulate, family or friends. or ~any charge in a public court.”

In the circumstances the Soviet “spokesman’s dissatisfaction with po- -Tice methods in this country is, to “Bay the least. a little finical.

causing an estimated $256.000 dam- age to the pianes:and subtracting 10 years from the life of every pilot who landed there The navy imported ornithologists to solve their problem. One of them suggested fire-crackers. so thousands of dollars of roman candles, sky- rockets. sparklers and cannon crack- ers weré tossed about the sand dunes. The birds squawked, flapped their big wings and tore up the island get- ting away from. the racket. But back thev came when the noise subsided. Then somebody decided to move the entire bird population to Kure island. 65 miles away and uninhabit- ed,-figuring the young hatched there would make it their permanent home. That didn't work. Next bull- dozers. were brought in to level the dunes which caused the updrafts . which the albatross needs to become airborne. Tons of asphalt were spread over acres of the sand near the run- ways. Still the birds came _ back. When all other means had failed, a frustrated navy captain took direct action and armed the garrison with clubs and ordered a mass slaughter. The massacre of the clumsy gooneys was easy. But among the

club wielders was a sailor bird lover

and member of the Audubon so-

ciety. It took only a quick message to Washington to unite the bird lov- ers who rushed to the gooneys’ de- | fense. Congressmen were threat- ened with impeachment if some- thing wasn't done. The navy depart- ment found itself facing appropria- tion cuts-and congressional investi- gations.-- The captain = was’ quickly relieved.

Today the jet age has solved the problem in favor of the birds. Mid- way is no longer an important Pa- cific bastion of defense. Planes that flew to and from it have been re- placed by planes that flv over it. And as the human population dwindles. the bird population increases. The latest estimates now place the gooneys at about 50.000 and ove: ing yearly

| Too Successful?

A news item in the Financial Times of Canada starts off with an “Hath the rain a father? or who hath begot- ten the drops of dew?” Few. persons are willing to admit that a truly suc- cessful means of making rain has ever been discovered, it says. But in Quebec's Lake St. John region a small body of irate farmers is com- plaining that nearby rainmaking ex-

This firm has been engaged for several vears in trying to make rain in the Ottawa Vallev and the north shore of the St. Lawrence. The oper- ations are still in the experimental stage. In the agricultural areas near- by, weather checks have found no significant difference in year-round rainfall, but the provincial govern- ment has moved to -protect the dis- gruntled farmers anyway. It has de- creed that the generators used in the experiment may.not be employed from mid-May to mid-June, mid-July to mid-August and during the whole month of September.

When President Johnson says the United” States would much rather talk than fight. his words are aimed at the Soviet Union and the Eastern European Com- munist bloc.
