"factured in Canada for to the United States. Report From Parliament By Michael Starr, M.P. More than usual tension has been created in recent months ir the Canada-U.S. relationship. This came about in various zreas such as the release by the United States of the price of the wheat -sales to Russia by (Canada. The sale price of wheat is considered to be secret and Canada resented very much this breach of confidence by the United States. Anothér area of tension is canada's determination to bal- ance her trade with the United States by endeavouring to have more automobile parts manu- export Officials vf that country are very much verturbed by this policy and are resisting all efforts directed to- wards this industry. Then, of course, we had strain- «d relations in respect to the: Great Lakes dispute and this by | no means has quieted down as vet. There are other areas that! have brought about some ten- sions between the two countries. 11 might be fair to say that there has never been a time in recent years when the relation- ship between the United States znd Canada has been so strained as it is at the present time. what the Prairie farmer Because of the drought in the [ramp countries, Canada as benefited through the sale i: its wheat. The first such large | Lo Communi 1 sale was made China, followed by the huge sale to Russia, and now Czecholslo- vakia and Poland. These sales are good for the Canadian ec- onomy and will be the means of reducing our surplus of wheat in the West without cutting back on our producing capacity. The sales of wheat to Russia and other Iron Curtain countries must be delivered by July, 1964. We can only hope that the Great Lakes situation will not deteri- orate to a point where the de- livery of this wheat would be impeded. On the insistence of the mem- bers of the Opposition, the ; Government has agreed to set up a Commons Committee on i Agriculture and Colonization. Due to the feed grain situation in Eastern Canada, it has been decided that this Committee "would look at this matter and include price spreads between gets and the Eastern feeder has to pay. Other matters to be consid- ered by this Committee will be prices, the eastern storage sys- tem, the regularity of supplies, imports from the United States, Pori Perry High School COMMENCEMENT EXERCISES JUNIOR COMMENCEMENT "Thurs.

It has been interesting to note | the shift of the parties to the! Liberal side in the votes that have .been taken place. every party in the ment at one time or i This gives an indication that there is not much chance of the Government being defeated in the near future. The oral questions on the ' Orders of the Day range from promises made by the Govern- ment during the election cam- paign, to local and national in- terests. The Government is continually being reminded of the promises they made during | as to when they into effect. One of the main interests at the moment in the House is the price of sugar, which many commodities, and phGovernment is being queried as to what action they anticipate taking in order to stem the rise in the price of sugar. It is quite evident now that the Government is not seeking advice or recommendations from Members of Parliament repre- senting constituencies who are in the Opposition ranks. Instead, they are consulting with the de- feated Liberal.candidates in-the last election in all of these mat- ters. If the Government wishes to locate a Federal Building, their defeated candidate is con- sulted and his advice is taken, rather than that of the Member who represents the Riding. Some three years ago I was instrumental in establishing a Harbour Commission at the Oshawa Harbour. The purpose of this Commission was to de- velop the harbour property and to accentuate its use. Among those appointed to this Com- mission, composed of three men, was Mr. Sam Jackson of Osh- awa. He did yeoman work as Chairman of this Commission and tremendous development has occurred at the harbour pro- perty, mainly as a result of his initiative. When his three-year term was up the Government, on the advice of someone other than -the Member, decided not It is unfor- tunate that the continuity of this work will be impeded be- cause of this course 'of events.

PORT PERRY STAR, THURS., NOV, 7th, 196317 Muscular Dystrophy Association To Campaign for $500,000 In 1963 Canada's onslaught on childhood ¢rippler, dystrophy, is a danger of los- ing its momentum, according to Arthur Minden Q.C., president of The Muscular Dy strophy As- sociation of Canada. the {ja crisis threatens this complex muscular. research program---a crisis that | eo be averted only if MDAC 'raises close to -§500,000 in_its Kai campaign. Mr, Minden gave this warn- | ing recently when he announced that MDAC would make its an- nual appeal for funds during the' week beginning November 24. Over the past nine years the association has built a compre- hensive program of medical re- search, involving every major [i medical school and hospital in! f Canada, in an effort to discover a cure for muscular dystrophy. But with new medical discover- | ies, the program has expanded, so rapidly that the demand for research funds has grown twice as fast as the association's in- come from public appeals.
