FRIDAY, MARCH 11. 1949 “Buffing ‘Illa Beckie" 7"“ ARljlAnl Some time ago The Guardian suggested that our Legislative members might well co-operate in streamlining sessional activities by curtailing the" usually long-winded speeches on the Draft Address. This suggestion has been followed to u‘ considerable extent, without any disadvantage to either side politically, and certainly with de- cided advantage in expediting legislative ‘busi- lless. ‘We note that in New B-runswick the leader of the Opposition has gone further in this di- rection and has waived the right to debate the Draft Address altogether. "lt seems to the Op- position," he said, "that our action will make it possible for the Government to bring down the Budget IIICII earlier than usual and to pro- ceed with its legislative programme. l may say that the Opposition proposes to give very vigor- ous examination to the fiscal position of the Province once the Budget is brought down and departmental information becomes available." The result has been to catch the Govern- men-t by surprise-a tactica-l move which Opposi- tions invariably aim to achieve—and it will also serve the more substantial purpose of shortening the session by at least two weeks. Under modern parliamentary practise, much more importance attaches to informal discussions on practical issues than to the oldtime formal llrations, aimed chiefly at showing the consis- _ tency of the pa-rty to which the speaker belong- ed and the inconsistency of his opponents over a period of years sometimes extending back to Confederation. The newspapers of half a centu-ry ago were larded with verbatim reports of these partisan- marathon speeches, which today would bequite unreadobleby the average busy taxpayer. A classical commenta-ry on their worth and value was Sheridan's jibe at a pompous op. ponent's efforts in this direction. "The Rt. Hon. member," he said, "is indebted to his memory for hrs jests and to his imagination for his facts." On another occasion Ruskin compared the-m to the drone of a bagpipe going by “mm Second Thoughts The directors of the P. E. l. Federation of Agriculture are to be commended on the man- ner in which they presented theirltsannual brief to the Legislature. ~ A more- responsible tone is noted in the Federation's presentation than was heard in the resolutions passed. by its individual ment- ber-organizations during Farmers’ Week. lf the Federation is to remain the worthy voice of Island farmers, that voice m-ust be responsible, temperate and wise. Thus it was when‘ the farmers’ represen-ta- tives met the representatives of the people. The immoderote language and feelings, evident a few weeks before, hod subsided. The wisdom of second thoughts prevailed. lt was also noted that matters which some more articulate leaders had seen fit to boost during the Farmers’ Week meetings were quiet- ly shelved. Second thoughts again relegated partisan fancies to their rightful, obscure place. A question has been raised as to the wis- dom of the retiring president naming the reso- lutions and nominations committees, thus tend- ing. to maintain, a form of ruling dynasty in the vorrous farm organizations. True, there were no objections from the floor. On second thoughts, however, line-breed- sng can accentuate the weaknesses as well as the strengths of one particular line, _. llorwav lllakes ll choice Norway official-ly has taken the action fore- cost when ForeigngMinister Halvard M. Lange concluded his recent talks with Secretary of State Dean Acheson in Washington — tu-rned down Russia's request for a nan-aggression pact in favor of membership in the defense agree- ment of the Western nations. Only the ten Com- munist members of the Norwegian Starting op- posed the decision to which the members of all other parties garie their indorssment. This unity is quite understandable in the light of what hap- pened to Norway in the last decade. Then the Norwegians had their bitter taste of totalitar- ianism and they want no more of it, even if the cfior of the dose has changed ‘from brown to r . Naturally, comments an exchange, Oslo's answer to Moscow is temperate in tone. Such a tone ls dictated not alone by the fact that Rus- sia is the only neighbor, save Sweden and Fin- land, from which Norway is not separated by the sea. It ls inspired, too, by the fact that the Norwegians, who will fight so hard when their liberties ore threatened, are essentially peace- g loving folk. They wont to quarrel with nobody. They took pains to declare "most categorically" they would not participate in any aggressive policy nor permit foreign military forces on Nor- wegran territory so long afthe country is not or threatened with attack.

Output Canada's lumber production in I948, the Dominion Bureau o-f Statistics reports, amount- ed to 5,326,000,000 baard‘feet, a decline of 20,000,000 from the output of I947, British Columbia and Alberta showed increases in I948 over the previous year, and all the other 7 Pro- vinces suffered rather heavy declines. The pro- duction by Provinces ranges from less than I0,- 000,000 feet for Prince Edward Island to more than 2 I-2 billion for British Columbia. Here are the Bureau's figures: ' Pfgyjfmg Production Prince Edward Island . . . . 9,830,000 Nova Scotia . . . . . . . . , . . . . . 273,058,000 New Brunswick . . . . . . . . 220,303,000 Quebec . . . . . . . . . . . .. .. . . . 1,050,961,000 Ontario . . . . . . 699,5l3,000 Manitoba . 47,090,000 Saskatchewan ~ - 83,5l4,000 Alberta . . . . . . -- - 275,347,000 British Columbia . . . . . . . . . . . . .. 2,668,147,000 The Bureau does not give the app-raised value of this big yield of the forests, but it ob- viously amounted to quite a contribution to Ca- nada's national incom-e last year.

A pleasant thought, but it has little likelihood of acceptance.

M I I The changing status of the automobile, from luxury to necessity, is reflected in traffic studies of tlle (American) Automobile Manu- factu-rers Association. It was found that_in four- teen cities 84 per cent of all car trips by resi- dents are for necessary purposes and only l6 per cent for social or recreational purposes. I i i All seems now clear for Newfoundland to enter Confederation at the appointed date. The House of Lords will not offer any effective re- sistance to the measure to amend the B. N. A. for this purpose, and the Attorney General, Sir Hartley Shawcross, practically asserts that the appeal against Confederation to come before the Privy Council will not affect the issue. i ‘ R fl A group who call themselves "Freedom Lov- ing Men" are reported to be beliind a threat to blow up Britain's Parliament buildings. lt is scarcely surprising that there should be today a fast-growing science of sematics, seeking the "meaning of meaning." The modern attitude to- wards words seems to be that of certain Lewis Carroll characters. I ‘I Perhaps it is mere quibbling‘, but it seems important to keep in mind that the courts of law insist that they do not make law but merely declare what the law is. The decision of the Supreme Court of Canada is that the ban on margarine is and always was void. A reversal by the Privy Council would mean that it had al- ways been in effect. " I I I According to Manitoba Free Press, Manitoba legislature coalition supporters, facing the di- lemma of voting for or against the resolution of Edmond Prefontaine (Lib., Carillon), asking condemnation of the Drew stand on dominion- provincial relations and approval of the Garson attitude, will inow have a face-saving‘ amend- ment. To be introduced by Winnipeg Indepen- dent L. St. Geogre Stubbs, it seeks approval of the tax agreements and urges "still better" ones. I I i Local Government please note. Marshal of the R.A.F. Viscount! Portal told the House of Lords that some people are pretty cynical about promises by the Government to "do everything in its power." He said a dictionary compiled by two R. A.

Gullford, who was associated with Admiral Bayfleld lrl his surveys of the Maritime coasts, and who later was in commend of the Dominion Government steamer Newfleld. The following account of his career is front the Plctou Stan- dard. March, 1887: "The first. time Captain Gullford came to Pictou was in the year 1851. l-le arrived along with Cap- tain (afterwards Admiral) Bayfleld in the liltle schooner Gulnere. At that time they were surveying the coast. Soon after this Captain Gullford left the Gulnure, joined a large West India vessel, and after a few voyages in her went to Eng- land. Some years later, 1856. he joined the Cunard service, taking command of the Osprey, which was engaged running from Halifax to St. John's, Nfld.. with the malls. He was afterwards in the Merlin and Delta, and In 1860 went on a sealing voyage. Towards the end of the same year ltewns asked while in the Cunard service to go to New York to take the Great Eust- ern, the largest steamer ever built and three times larger than any ocean craft. now afloat, to Halifax. She registered 22.000 tons. For cor- tain periods every year for four or live years after this he continued his sealing voyages. When the Cun- ard 0st the mull contract, Capt. Guil ord left them, bought the brig Mary Ann and sailed ln her for about five years. She was lost; After that he went to Boston. pur- chased the George Shattuck for the Anglo-French Steamship Ca., and sailed in her for some years ftom Halifax to St. Pierre, Miq., via Cape Breton ports. He was e larrge shareholder in tile steamer. In 1880 Cont. Guilford v/us appointed com- mander of the Newfleld and is still at the helm. Soon after taking command he went to England and fitted her out as a cable ship. The Newfleld‘ brouczht cable to Nova Scotia and laid it to and from sev- eral polnts, both in Nova Scolla and New Brunswick."

Ln Main de Dleu of Rodin. symbolizes mankind in two figures, male and female. which are upheld and sheltered in the hollow of a mighty and enveloping hand. This conception, which the creative genius of the French artist has ex- pressed wlth consummate power in living, breathing stone, ls familiar in Biblical usage: as in the saying of Job. "1n whose hand is the soul of every living thing," and in the prophet of the Exile's magnificent "Who hath measured the waters in the hollow of His hand." It ep- peurs also in the Church's ancient llturgles, from which it has passed into the Anglican Prayer-book. Truth about God. often moribund if not dead when imprisoned in ab- stract phrases, comes rsilve when it. is expressed in the imagery of poetry and parable. The rePPBBEYI- tatlon of God's power and activity by the symbol of a hand is fre- quently repeated with arresting, ef- fect in both Old and New Testa- merits. Hebrew faith delighted to employ this means of affirming such activ- ities of God as Creation ("The hea- vens are the work of Thy hands"), the shaping of personality by discip- line ("As clay in the potter‘; hand, so are ye in mine"), protection ("ln thechadow of His hand hath He hid me”), providence ("My times re in thy hand”), and deliverance Tn time of crisis ("Who brought thee out. of Egypt with a mighty hand"). The same figure was used by Our Lord: “The Father hath given all things into His (the Son's) hand," "No one shall pluck them out of the Father's hand," "Father, into Thy hands I commend my spirit"; and by His disciples: "The hand of the Lord was with Him." _ "Thou stretchest forth Thy hand to heal," "I see Jesus standing at the right hand of God," "Humble yourcehes therefore under the mlBhlY hind 0i God."
