Deserved Tribute

The tribute paid last evening to Lieutenant D. A. Mat-Kinnon. D.S.O., by representatives of the Canadian fur industry, on the occasion of his eightietli birthday and in apprecia- tion of his untiring contribution to the industry, is one which will be warmly indorsed by all our Citizens- The presentation and address, We understand, took the Colonel com- plctcly by surprise. But the part he has plated in promoting this valu- able island industry, as a breeder, showman and producer of thousands of valuable pelts, is known through- out Canada. So too are his regular contributions to The Guardian over a long period of years, which con- tain the most authentic information from sources all over the world.

In addition. of course, Colonel lllai-Kinnon is a recognized authority on harness racing and all that per- tains to this popular Island sport. and still participates actively and successfully in our track meets. But this is another story, with which all our people are familiar. Our fur breeders have honoured themselves in paying the tribute they did last evening to the dean of their industry in this Province. The Guardian joins heartily in their fellcitatlons, and in wishing Colonel MacKinnon many more years of health and activity.

All To The Good

The fact that the British Ice Hockey Association has cancelled a planned tour of the country by a group of Russian hockey players is an indication of British indignation over Soviet atrocities in Hungary. No people in the world are less in- clined to mix politics with their sports and games. But this is not a case of politics. It is one of cruel treachery and downright savagery which would make any degree of

on of our two governments will continue to be directed towards the confirming of our ancient and na- tural ties of mutual understanding. Such a relationship, I feel, contained within it the seeds of even larger benefits to the entire community of nations. Toward that end I can as- sure you, Mr. Ambassador, of the sincere co-operation of this Govern- ment as you assume your new duties." All well and good. if the words mean what they say.

Judging by American press re- ports. there is a growing opinion in the United States that the respon- sibility for the unfortunate impair- ment of these "ancient and natural ties” is as much the United States' as Britain's and that the security of the United States cannot be view- ed as something apart from Britain's "national interests” which President Eisenhower went out of his way to deride when the Suez crisis develop- ed. One thing stands out clearly: If there is to be "co-operation" between Britain and the United States in the future, it will have to work both ways. The British people, regardless of what political party may be in office, are not going to pin their national security to an American policy which at the slightest provo- cation, or no provocation at all, is likely to repudiate the doctrine of mutual assistance merely to pacify the common enemy or to meet some transitory difficulty in domestic politics.

Worth Reading

We should like to recommend, as compulsory reading for every mem- ber of our Government. at Ottawa, an article which appeared in the Financial Post by Mr. J. B. Mc- Geachy, well-known Canadian jour- nalist and commentator, on the Suez crisis. We are republishing it on this page for the information of our own readers, in three installments com- mencing today. The reference in the current installment to President Tru- man and the Korean crisis is parti- cularly worth noting. It should not be news to our shocked statesmen on Parliament Hill, but apparently some of them have never heard of it.

EDITORIAL NOTES

A prominent American theologian

fraternization between British and

Russian athletes a sham and a mock-

ery. It is unfortunate, of course, for

international sports can do much and in the past have done much to

create international goodwill. Still,

there is a lirnlt beyond which for-

bearance cannot go, and it is the British view that that limit has been reached.

It is good to note, too, that

hockey officials In several Western countries, including Canada, have decided against entering teams in the international championship g a m e s scheduled for next February in Mos- cow. There is, in fact, some doubt that enough teams will be entered to make the games feasible, at least in Moscow. This is all to the good. Better far to cancel them than to stage them in the central head- quarters of Soviet oppression and cruelty.

Mutual Greetings

Sir Hamid Anthony Gaccia, the newly appointed British Ambassador to the United States, took up his duties a few days ago by presenting his credentials to President Eisen- hower. It is interesting to note the greetings which passed between the two men at the formal ceremony. Sir Harold was brief and to the point. "The relations between our two countries," he told the President, "have for years been marked by very close co-operation in many

glelds. Today the need for that co- operation is as great as it has ever been." He did not make any refer-

marked British-Amel-lcsn relations in recent weeks, nor did he lnforrn the President that, in the British view, itwasthevsclllstingpollcy ofthe Ihitzd States when there was special

A prominent Republican Senator says his party is "not dead by any means.” That's right. Still, consider- ing the poor showing it made at the polls in comparison with the great personal triumph of its leader, its health can scarcely be called robust.

With so many subjects on its agenda it is hard to see how the U.N. General Assembly will find time to take up the case of the attack on American fishing boats by Mexican gunners. Yet, presumably the United States will refer the incident to the world body. It would never do, in view of recent events, for the matter to be dealt with independentlyi

A survey covering more than 170,000 persons in a big American city has revealed that identification with religious groups "makes for in- divldual self-acceptance and sound mental health." This should come as no surprise to anyone. One of the traditional functions of religion is to create self-respect and encourage sound thinking.

The head of Canada's civil de- fence system is quoted as saying "there's not a shred of truth in Dr. H. L. Keenleyside's statement that civil defence in this country is mean-

ingless." Of the two views, however, Dr. Keenleyaide's appears to be the more reasonable, although it may be a little on the over-critical side. Certainly, there is nothing to show that our civil defence would be adequate against an all-out attack. i O O I

FOOTPRINTS IN THE SAND OF TIME

The Suez Crisis

J. B. Hr-Goachy in The FInncI:I'Posf

Anglo-French intervention in the Israeli - Egyptian war was from the start. clearly a risky policy; but it must be assumed that Prime ministers Eden and Mullet foresaw and cult-iilalcd the risks.

The nun-European vvorld per- hlps does not know Mollet very well but it knows Eden. From his record it IS clear that he is not a reckless man or a man who acts in iizimrance of the chances of implications of any stroke of foreign policy.

He must have known that milit- ary intervention in Egypt would temporarily, at least, alienate Washington opinion. especially at a time when President Eisenhow- er was running for re-election as the man of peace who "kept us out of war."

He must have known that a large section of the British public influ- enced partly by Labor pacifism and partly by fear of another general war would he hostile. lie must have known Ihat he would give Ru III a chance to abuse Britain as an aggressor.

With fnreknowlcdge of these risks. Sir Anthony took the plunge. The defense of the Anglo-French

move. so poorly presented at first that the rest of the world hardly knew what that defense was. can be stated in clear and logical terms. THREAT T0 SECURITY

First. the attack on Egypt by Israel threatened the security of Britain. Western Europe and the world. primarily but not solely because it seemed to mean fight- ing in the Suez Canal zone.

Second, in view of the record since 1947, there seemed to be no chance whatever of decisive measures within UN to put out the fire and no chance of speedy American action either before or aftcr the end of the election cam- paign.

Third, it hope that poised for

seemed reasonable to Anizlo-French forces, action since mld-Aug- uat, could quickly separate the combatants and take control of the vital waterway.

Finally. of course, there was the precedent act by former President Truman's quick decision in 1950 When the US. in that year volun- teered to act as policeman in the Korean civil war. there was a chorus of approval in the non-Com munlst world. In doing the same thlng Britain and France could perhaps not cxpecl lnud applause bill they might well have expected the tolerance and understanding of their friends.

THE KOREAN WAR

The parallel is not exact since history scltlnin repeats itself in do tsll, but here was a rough similar- ity of pattern. When North Korea attacked South Korea, Truman at once saw I "rllrecl threat" in American sccurlty. After consult- ing his chiefs of staff. but not the allies of the U.S.. he sent Instruct- ions in General MacArthur, then in Tokyo, to "use land and naval forces to support the Republic of South Korea." (The quotations are from Truman's memoirs, Vol. 2: Years of Trial and Hope.)

These orders to Mar-Arthur were transmitted on June 26. The UN Security Council. Truman further nartales. "met again and on June

17 adopted the resolution calling on all members of the UN to give asslslanc to South Rona." The Soviet Union. then boycotting UN was absent from the Council and did not vote. Therefore. as many believe, the resolution was invalid, lacking the "concurrence of the five permanent members" requir- ed by thc Charter. .

This, however, may be a minor point. The President did obtain a favorable expression of UN opin- ion - after he had decided on his own initiative to get into the K01- can war.

There was no prelimins y discus- slon with non-American friends. These were offered the alternative of accepting a falt accompll or con- surlng the leader of the Western alliance. Truman had acted, as his memoirs make clear. in full know- ledge of the risk that China or Russia or both might enter the war on the Red side. as indeed China did later.

CLOSE PARALLEL

The parallel with the Egyptian case is very close. The principal difference is that the Korean men- are to American safety was very remote, in both time and space. whereas the Middle Eastern mol- ace to Britain and France was close and immediate.

It was a reasonable military cal- culation that the Israelis could cross the empty Sinai peninsula is about 48 hours - which they nearly did. This would have put them on the eastern bank of the Suez Canal, facing the Egyptians on the oppos- ite bank. The effect on traffic, and on the physical condition of the waterway, may be readily Imag- ined.

Britain and France, of course, had longer term purposes than the protection of the route through which they obtain their indispens- able oil supply. They were vitally interested in immediately securing the canal. They also wanted the Issue of permanent. Sues manage- ment settled for good. The wanted the Israeli-Arab quarrel settled for good. if the Nasser Government should fall in the process they would shed no tears.

Just in the same way. in 1950, Truman was concerned in doing more than restoring the status quo in the Orient. He wanted the Kos- ean partition question settled and If the North Korean Government had collapsed, he would certainly have made no objections.

But the great difference was that whereas the Truman decision got cheers and offers of support, the British and French evoked loud cries of dismay and indignation. It does really look as if UN applied two different standards of inter- national morality.

UN's part. pro or con. can only be understood if it's recognised that UN expresses opinions but

oesn't make laws. The history of l 2 past decade has been shaped by sovereign nations acting solo or in alliance. UN as been a ban- evolent and useful bystander put- ting in all encouraging or deprecat- in: word from time to time. some countries, some of the time. may have modified policies in deference to UN sentiment; but clear cases of this deference are hard to pin

down. (To be continued)

INDORS I-ZS CAMPAIGN

Dear Slr,- I wish to heartily ea- dorse the campaign for funds for the Protestant welfare Burasu. From an intimate knowledge of the important and necessary work now being done by the Catholic Wel- fare Bureau and after 4.1 years on the Executive of the Free Dispen- MITV now closed. I fully know. perhaps better than anyone else, just how absolutely necessary this work is.

I learned my lesson from fifteen years' experience as City Health Officer, 42 years in the Red Cross and 40 years in the Childrens Aid Society.

I can commend Social Welfare work as I great Christian charity. All monies given the Protestant Welfare Bureau will be well spent in roller for the poor - medicine and drugs for the sick. To protect and maintain the integrity of the home and prevent juvenile delin- quency. No greater Christian work Is possible.

I am sure the splendid citizens of Charlottetown will ovsr-sub- scribe the objective of 811.000-

COOK PORK TIIOIOUGIILY

There are two reasons why you should cook all pork very thor- oughly.

I've previously warned that you can develop if hinos-is. a le- dralniag disease, by eating raw or partly cooked pork.

Two Yale University investiga- tors recently found that you might also get another disease. tow plarakmosis. by eating undercooked

po . IBEMBLE PNEUMONIA

Dr. David Weinman and Anne II. Chandler say "the disease, which resembles pneumonia in its symp- toms. is now extremely common.

In some sections of the country. between 30 and 70 per cent of those in the 40 to 60 age group an infected. Just 10 years ago, the disease was considered rare

Generally. the disease is not se- vere. Because of this, only the acute cases get much attention.

The disease is d by the protozoan Toxoplasma.

SURVIE8 FREEZING

In pork. thip Toxoplasma organ- ism can survive even freezing tem- peratures. So while pork can be rendered relatively safe from the Iricbinella worm by keeping it frosen at temperatures ranging from 5 degrees, for 20 days, to minus 20 degrees. for six days this will not free it of the Toxoplasma.

There's another way is which the Toxoplasma differs from the Trichlnella worm.

The T xoplasma is not easily I- dentified in sections of infected pork because it is much smaller in size and is haphazaruiy distri- buted throughout the tissues.

Park is a valuable food. in fact, it is one of the most important sources of thiamine. It is rich in other B vitamins, too. and in min- erall such as phosphorus and iron.

So you don't want to-and you don't have to-stop eating pork. Just make sure that it is thor- oughly cooked. Cook it until it has I gray color throughout.

Remember, pink pork can be dangerous.
