It is recalled that Canada was the only one among Uncle Sam’s wartime Allies that received no Lend-Lease but insisted on paying cash for all assistance. “Relations between the two countries have been built on -solid rocks of trade and friendship,” the artiele concludes; “a most welcome thought now, as ‘we recall the anniversary of a war that seems further removed in his- tory than 147 years.”

EDITORIAL NOTES

According to an Ottawa report, the government is now subsidizing the bees. It is putting a price sup- port under honey, effective July 1. The new support price is equivalent

one which in being achieved may do considerably more harm than good. If now, for damestic reasons, we check Japanese sales to this country, ‘it is reasonable to expect that Japan —one of Canada’s best customers— will stop buying from us; and it is our primary exporters who will suf- fer in this event. :

Japan now is in a tight squeeze. She lost a vast traditional market when the Communists took over China, and there is danger that, in @ desperate attempt to find trade outlets, she may be forced into an economic alliance with China. The prospect of that alliance was des- | to 104 per cent of the 10-year aver- ‘ribed last month by Mr. W.E. Wil- age. liams, president of Procter and Gam- | ” ble Company of Canada, as “a cata-

- gtrophe which would make Genghis Khan’s 13th Century invasion of Europe look like a tea party.” North America could prevent the cata- sirophe, Mr. Williams said, only by purchasing a great many more goods from Japan.

-“Sound advice,” comments the Toronto Globe and Mail; “but it was obviously ignored by Ottawa. We are more concerned, apparently; with the effect on our domestic producers of imported Japanese underwear than with the catastrophe looming ° over the Pacific horizon.”

It is time for the Government to take a hard look at its tariff poli-- cies in the light of its pre-election pledges to expand our export trade. Japan is not the only country adver- séely affected. The latest Bureau of Statistics report shows that while imports from the United Stafes were up $31,000,000 in the January-March period this year, those from Britain were down $8,000,000. This prompted Hon. Lester Pearson to ask in Par- liament, the other day, what had happened to the Prime Minister’s pledge to divert more trade to Bri- fain? Many of the Government’s Own supporters in this part of Can- ada would like an answer to that question.

Canadian employment continued to rise in May, while the number of jobless dropped by 111,000 dur- ing the month. As of May,16, the number of persons without jobs and seeking work was reduced to 334,- 900 from 445,000 a month earlier and 370,000 at May 24th in 1958. Meanwhile, the number of persons with jobs rose to 5,852,000 compar- ed with 5,664,000 in mid-April and 5,730,-000 at May 24th last year.

Here’s another threat to the dairy industry. A mechanical* ‘cow’ has just s.arted work at the British Agricultural Research Council's ex- perimental station at Rothamsted, near London. Its function is to ex- tract protein from leaves or grass or any suitable vegetation. The man behind ,this gadget, a nutrition ex- pert, claims that a cow is “an ex- tremely inefficient mechanism for converting the protein in grass in- to milk and beef protein. It effi- ciency averages about 5 per cent; therefore 95 per cent of the grass protein is lost.’’ Grass or other ve- getation fed to the mechanical cow is converted into protein for shipment to the Rowlett Re- search Institute, in Aberdeen, Scot- Jand, where it is used in experimen- tal eyes of pigs.

“The Great Romance Under the above heading a New York Times commentator says that in view of the great international romance that has sprung up through the years between Canada and the United States—a romance enhanced by the regal opening of the St. Lawrence Seaway—it is hard to realize that this month marked the ‘ anniversary of the opening of hos- tilities whose purpose was to keep _ AMericans out of Canada. On June | 18, 1812, war broke out . between E the two neighbors, and continued until the Treaty of Ghent was signed

om Dec. 24, 1814

“The anniversary is particularly piquant these days,” says the Times writer, “when Canada is doing so much to encourage more Americans not only to visit but to emigrate to the neighbor just across our north- ern border. That her efforts are su is’ attested to* by the Currently about 15,000 a year are heeding the recent version of Horace Greeley’s prescription for success,

It was an historic occasion indeed when Her Majesty Queen Elizabeth presented colours to the three bat- talions of the Royal 22nd Regiment on Tuesday. The Regiment—formed

_ to give French-speaking Canadians‘ representative unit at the outbreak of the First World War—was lined up on the Plains of Abraham where, “exactly 200 years ago, battle was waged between French and English forces for the conquest of Quebec. Speaking as their colonel-in-chief, the Queen lauded the achievements of the Regiment during two world wars and the operations in »Korea when, she said, it had gained “a noble tradition in honour, valiance and sacrifice.” This is quite literally true, as all who are familiar with the Regiment’s record are aware.
