There iS the Rast, the West and the Neutralist Block More and more, the neutral nations are asserting heir voice in world affairs. The initia- ive was supplied by India under the lea- dership of Nehru who is still acknowledged the fupofficial spokesman for the uncom- mitted nations. The late Foster Dulles decried the neutral countries as the be- trayers of human freedom and human rights. His view was that if they weren't forthe West they must be against it The attitude of the American govei ment is slowly changing. It has long been spelt out that her foreign policy was railing to achieve the purposes for which it-had been designed; now, Kennedy under the coaching of Dean Rusk is publicly ad- mitting that the neutralist countries have a significant and perhaps decisive role to He has jettisoned the policies of Dulles and abandoned the program of the Eisenhower administra- tion set up to deal with foreign affairs. It is about time too. .The Neutralist nations are meeting in Belgrade, Jugo-Slavia, to discuss the world The Coyne Debacle The Coyne affair is rapidly becoming a cause celebre in this country. Abroad it has already become a controversial topic for political talk. The difference between Coyne and the government is one of fundamental policy He is committed-to a conservative point --of view with regard to monetary policy and practice. The government on the other hand is convinced that it must deal with the immediate problems of the day and is willing to ignore sound monetary Comments situation and to introduce resolutions and stinke agreements concerning the vexing problems of the modern world." Although the press of Canada and the United States has paid little attention to this forthcom- ing meeting, it is a most important one. It is representative of one-third of the people of the world. It is vitally import- ant to us that we support their_neutralism and give ear to their recommendations, Only in this way can we support their neutralist position. Russia, but not China, is also prepared to support their neutralist stand. At the conference some matters embar- rassing to the West will receive an open and honest review. These include Portu- gese colonialism, South Africa, Algeria, Tibet and Cuba. Actually, Canada, as one of the small nations of the West should he part of this block. However, it is difficult to see how we could shed our commitments in the West without a major upheaval and until the time comes when we can adopt such a course we 'must be content to listen to the voice of reason . . .. which to-day is the voice of the neutralist nations. \ petty politics or party prejudice. The government was dismayed to find that with Coyne such a situation did-not exist. Actually, he was most critical of the government's financial policies and said so. This, in the eyes of the people's representatives constituted a kind of in- subordination if not treason--in a manner of speaking. So they turned on all the power of poli- tical persuasion that they could muster. procedure in order to cope with such things as unemployment and depressed industries.

PARLIAMENT BY HON. MIKE STARR M.P. ONTARIO RIDING The thinking behind the Budget has become clearer as the Budget went on during the past week. The Budget was attacked, of course, on the ground that there was a deficit and that there might be a danger of inflation. During the replies of the Minister and that there might be a danger of speakers, it became evident that in- flation was not the main problem as far as the Government was concerned. While inflation had to be watched and controlled, the Minister of Fi- nance made it plain that the main objective --of -Government -fiseal -and monetary policy at the present time was to provide a degree of economic activity and economic expansion in order to keep Canadians working. - In other words, when there was unused plant capacity and where there were men and women still withous work, the most important objective was to put that plant capacity to work and to put people to work in those 'plants. = [SEU -- And the ------ of a possible deficit ranging from % of a billion to a billion dollars over the next year, was deliberately designed to accomp- lish that objective. - In effect, it meant that the Govern- ment was pumping that tremendous a- mount into the economy, over and above ordinary and routine Govern- ment expenditures. "In other words, the Budget could have been balanced but the economy would have been deprived of a much- needed shot in the arm, in the shape of $1,000,000,000 of Federal spending. At the present time we are com- mitted to an expanding economy in order--to maintain. full employment. When the private sector of the econ- omy slackens' off, then the public (Government) sector must make up the difference if expansion is to be kept up. This, of course, is the difference be- tween present Government thinking and the "tight-money". philosophy. which would concentrate on a balance budget and higher taxes--regarding the consequent increase in unemploy- ment as a sort of necessary and in- evitable evil. The fact is that this type of think- ing is regressive under present cir- cumstances, Present deficits do not compare with those accrued in war- time for purposes which, while they were certainly essential, are no more essential than the objective of provid- ing and maintaining jobs for Cana- dians. An interesting index of- economic | expansion the national index of in- dustrial production, after remaining unchanged for several months, registered a sharp 8.2 per- cent advance in April, rising to 170 from the March level of 164.7. - The increases were spread through- out the field of prodiiction with a rise of 2.7 percent in manufacturing; a rise of 3.2 percent . in electric power and' gas utilities; and a rise of 6 per- cent in. mine. production.

This was agreed to. Secondly, that computation of holi- day earnings should not be applied to the week before the holiday but should be spread over the post-holiday period. This affected a number of employees in Oshawa. Agreed to. Third, that when a gpecific holiday by the campany at the beginning of a lay-off period, that would be treated as his regular holiday period upon notification of the> Unemployment: In- surance Commission office by the company and that he would not be b available for work during that period.

"When everybody sells, "" he wrote, "goods, services and ideas move faster, and prosperity is achieved." His article hit me iké a ton of bricks because of two recent Canadian experiences. First, (from a large Canadian department store in which I have always had great faith) an inexpensive tropical suit for summer wear. Getting the order pla- ced with the salesman wasn't too hard; but getting the suit, after alterations, was a complicated and uneasy affair, and insted of being treated like a vad- ued customer who had already bougnt an item, I suddenly became a nuisance who wanted to have the product at the time promised, In short, the reputa- {visiting My the effort to buy | Viola Tait. ang of Hamilton is afie of Mr. and Mrs. Mrs, Eid. visiting Bt Alvin B Ei Mr, n¥d3 i.
