Prime Minister Pearson is well versed in the intricate problems of the North Atlantic Treaty Or- ganization, and it is reassuring to note the confidence he has express- ed in the future of the alliance at this time. Yet all the signs point . to the fact that the days of NATO, as presently constituted, are num- bered. President de Gaulle has an- nounced that after April 4 of 1969, all foreign troop elements in France will have to come under French command. This coincides with the date at which the 20-year North Atlantic Treaty can be renounced by its members. As The Charlottetown Guardian underlines, De Gaulle has frequently indicated that France is determined to put an end to what he considers the subordination of his country to the will of the collective defense arrangement and more specifically the domination of NATO policy by the United States. The status of NATO headquarters near Paris and the Versailles headquarters of the allies' supreme command in Europe will be called into question. "It is the will of France," says de Gaulle, "to dispose of her own fate." The U.S. naturally will be the most seriously affected by this policy, with about 20,000 troops now on French soil operating supply and other bases. Canada has 2,200 per- sons stationed in France, attached to the RCAF base at Metz, It is Prime Minister Pearson's tiew that the French president did not mean his observations to be considered "either as truculent or final," and that instead of being threatened with disintegration NATO is likely to grow stronger. There will, he said, be a- "re- examination" of the alliance setup, but this was desirable, and should result in making it firmer politically and economically. Mr. ever, Pearson made it clear, how- that Canada would not con- sider committing troops to Europe under the command of France or any other country. 'Canadian troops are in.Europe," he said "as members of a coalition under a collective agreement. That is the mly re they are in Europe. They are not under national com- mand, nor will they: be under na- tional command in future." It's particularly ason a good point to emphasis, to Le Grand Charles. .lired Or Just Bored If you're always suffering from "that tired feeling,' you may just be bored.

Present plans call for ex- penditure of almost $2,500,000,- 000 in the next 10 years to en- large existing plants and build new mills. The industry, which set its seventh consecutive record for production and shipments in 1965, is counting on a boom in demand for pulp and paper products to keep pace with the rising output. One spokesman says world demand will rise more than 50 per cent by 1975 and double in the next 15 to 20 years. And certain segments of the indus- try would experience even faster growth, with demand for kraft pulp expected to double within 10 years. The industry's output in 1965 was 14,600,000 tons, up six per cent from 1964, with most mills running at about 94 per cent capacity. ~A Cross-Canada Survey The Canadian Press sho bulk of the industry's ex will take place in British lumbia which has two-t! the country's forest rese B.C. now per cent of Canada hopes to be turning cent by 1970 and 50 or more by 1980 SPENDING HEAVILY The roevince a double pulp capacity to 3,300,000 tons ip the last 10 years and now has Ph, produce per cent d its 16 mills in operation.

It asked 'Is Pearson a capa- ble leader? Hazen Argue says 'No."' Quoting from a report on Nov. 7, 1960, it prints these words attributed to Argue in a speech: 'Liberal Leader Lester Pearson is incapable of running his own party . . . The Liberal party is reeling under the great- est mistake in its history, Les- ter Pearson ... Lester Pearson is just not capable of cleaning out the decadence of a party under the influence of men like Jack Pickersgill, Joe Small- wood and Ross Thatcher .. . Mr. Pearson, you are going to have to change more than your little bow tie if you want to clean up the Liberal party." Many MPs crowded around to savour these pithy comments, but none enioyed them more than Hazen Argue's former col- leagues in the New Democratic Party. GRIFFON RECALLED ZN aes Several readers of this col- umn, especially in Sarnia and Pembroke, wrote to me of their interest in my report that a Sea Ranger crew in Sarnia planned to adopt the name "Griffon," in honor of the 17th century ship of that name built near Welland by the explorer La Salle. That was the first ship to sail our HELICOPTERS OVER VIET NAM CANADA'S STORY Great Lakes; iis wreck was re- cently identified near Tober- mory, in the Bruce Peninsula, Now Ren Robert Cavelier, Sieur de La Salle, and his ship, are again in the news. A special postage stamp is to be issued on April 13, to celebrate the 300th anniversary of the date when he first set foot in New France. A ship, symbolic of his Griffon, will be featured on the stamp beside him The world wide interest among philatelists in Canadian postage stamps is shown by the decision to print 24,000,000 cop- by jes of this five cent commem- orative stamp.

When When due allowance is made for a politican's need to temper his language, we see that one of the most frank but justified attacks ever made upon the Pearson government was re- cently unleashed by Lord Brown, minister of state in Britain. Speaking before the Canadian Chamber of Com- He merce in London, he pointed out Columbia that Britain is Canada's best source of foreign currency earned by trade.

Total cost: $1,461,000,000, In eight other provinces--all but Prince Edward Island--3§ more projects are under way, due to begin soon or in the planning stage. Total cost: $995,000 ,000 Some projects may never get off the drawing boards, of course, but others will inevi- tably appear. Expansion is divided into two main segments--pulp and news- print--with most of the new production concentrated on kraft pulp which is used to make stronger-grade papers. The industry is basing its plans on the expectation that most of the new demand for pulp and paper products will be in the so-called advanced na- tions. Consumption in develop- ing areas is not expected" to show significant growth for some years NORTH AMERICA LEADS Canadians and Americans are the world's biggest users of pa- per, with annual consumption running at a rate of 300 to 450 pounds a person. Consumption ins as Britain, West Germany, The Netherlands, Japan and France has risen to 160 pounds a per: uch countries years. With many nations now adopt- ing North American marketing, packaging and advertising methods coincident with rising living standards, ¢ paper consumption is expected to ac celerate. Individual projects in Canada range from $6,000,000 to $110,- 000,000 and they will have im- mediate and long - term economic effects on ine com- munities in which the; are lo- cated. The industry now employs al- most 65,000 workers. An exam- ple of the number of new jobs is given by MacMillan, Bloedel which is building a $90,000,000 newsprint and pulp mill at Pow- ell River,. B.C. The firm says 1,000 men will work on construc- tion and the plant will require a permanent staff of 300. Going further, Ralph Thomas, vice-president of Kamloops Pulp and Paper Co. Lid., which com- pleted 'a $17,000,000 bleached kraft pulp mill last year, shows how the effects are com- pounded, OPEN OTHER JOBS Mr. Thomas says 200 new jobs bring in 592 persons and 224 households, add 214 cars and 102 children, boost income to residents: by. $1,080,000, add $720,000 to retail. sales, increase bank deposits by $540,000 and create 348 other job opportuni- ties The pulp and paper industry is really two industries divided by the site B.C, has 65 per serves, larger trees, no seasonal shipping problems, and wider market range because of tide- water operations The eastern industry per cent of forest reserves, is largely landlocked and therefore oriented to U.S. and domestic markets. In B.C. the new mills' kraft pulp will be primarily for sale on world markets. In the east, with the exception of perhaps one mill, most of the increased kraft pulp production will be used to supply domestic needs. From time to time there is talk of the possibility.of the in- dustry's capacity out-distancing demand and there have been some words of caution. "There will be substantial over - capacity in the world market pulp production starting in 1967 or 1968 and running into the early 1970s," says J. V. Clyne, chairman of MacMillan, Bloedel. PAY LITTLE HEED He says he expects the world supply of kraft pulp to exceed demand by 2,000,000 tons within the next two years and by 3,000,000 tons around 1970. Another expert says smaller companies "charging into the field'? will be badly hurt and perhaps ruined if over-produc- tion develops. But other industry noting the expansion plans of Mr. Clyne's own company, haven't paid much attention to such warnings, has 35 officials, tiful harbor of Nootka Sound and rested the crews of his two ships there. for a month.

Because of these things, a world calamity of vast propor- tions can be just around the corner.

Nazi Germany denounced the Locarno Pact against territorial a 'ssion =---.330 years ago today--in 1936-- and reoccupied the Rhine- land, which had been evacu- ated after the First World War. This was the third step of expansion of the German Reich, following the re- absorption of the Saar and Hitler's denunciation of the peace treaty of Versailles. The French government was on the verge of war with Germany over the re- occupation of the Rhineland, but France's: internal af- fairs were in chaos and Italy, once looked on as the counterforce to Germany, was busy with an aggres- sive war of its own, in Ethiopia.

Questioned In Washington By SAUL PETT WASHINGTON (AP) -- In a town of passing prose favorites, this year's phrase in Washing- ton so far is the "credibility gap' in government. Onectians Taec it in exist? Answer: It does, or seems to, and seeming to, it exists. Among governments foreign and domestic, is this new in history? No. New or old, at what point is it dangerous for a democratic government to tell less or more than the truth, to squeeze it, sculpt it or with- hold it? That is the question no one seems able to answer; every attempt is like nailing jelly to the wall, Here, one is led into a never- never land where morality and necessity clash; where cold Wars are more complicated than hot wars and shooting wars are undeclared; where diplomacy and political man- oeuvre, like film, can curl up and die from exposure; where the end, always the end, it is hoped, justifies the means, There have been lies, IKE'S REGIME LIED In 1960, the government of Dwight D. Eisenhower lied about the U-2 plane shot down over Russia. In 1961, through its ambassa- dor at the United Nations, the government of John F. Kennedy lied about the Bay of Pigs in- vasion. In each case, the deception was exposed in a moment of profound national pain. But in neither did the president nor his administration continue to suf- fer from a_ lingering: doubt about its word, The administration of Lyndon B. Johnson has had no single moment as traumatic as the U-2 incident or the Bay of Pigs. It has not been obliged to make public confession of attempted 'deception. And yet there ling- ers over Washington today a cloud of doubt--large and grey in the minds of some, small and off-white in the minds of others. The symptoms are various. fact Last December UN Ambassa- dor Arthur Goldberg spoke of a "orisis of confidence' in ex- plaining why Washington dis- closed its position on the re- puted second peace feeier from Hanoi Gaidhero denied the rri. sis was justified but did say: "We have a great problem maintaining our credibility with our own people." Many observers detected an- other symptom in the spectacu- lar peace offensive launched early in December by the ad- ministration with an undiploma- tic blaze of pyrotechnics, Few here doubt the first purpose of that effort. Peace in Viet Nam. But the intensive, worldwide ef- fort to convince friend and foe and neutral alike of the United States' sincerity, in which this country seemed to be begging to be believed, reflected an un- official uneasiness about its reputation for meaning what it Says The problem of credibility has resulted from a series of large and small incidents. THANT WAS ANGRY In February, 1965, UN Secre- tary-General U Thant, in a rare display of undiplomatic lan- guage, said there had been a peace feeler from Hanoi and that the American people were not getting all the facts. The White House insisted there were "no meaningful proposals" then before the government. The word "meaningful" was lost. The impression grew that there had been no feelers at all, Then in November came a magazine article by Eric Seva- reid, Columbia Broadcasting System correspondent, in which he said that during the 1964 presidential campaign U Thant told Adlai Stevenson he had ob- tained Hanoi's agreement to meet with an American repre- sentative in Rangoon. Had there been such a proposal? "Yes,'* the state department now said, on Noy. 15. Officials today still insist the offer was "too nebue lous" to take seriously, Clearly, U Thant disagreed. In any case, was it too nebulous to admit at the time? Rising Skepticism Greets Government Explanations Last fall the administration attacked 'increases in the price of aluminum as "inflationary." Then it threatened to dump its huge stockpile into the market. Then the prices came down. And the White House insisted there was "no connection what- soever,'"' no connection between the cause it had initiated and the effect it had desired. Last Aug. 31, Prime Minister Lee Kuan Yew of Singapore claimed an agent of the U.S. Central Intelligence Agency had offered: him a $3,300,000 bribe five years before. The state de- partment denied the charge. Then Lee produced a_ letter from State Secretary Dean Rusk apologizing for the inci- dent. Then the state depart- ment admitted it. Then and now, the state. department in- sists the denial was a result of bureaucratic error, that the man issuing the denial hadn't known the facts, Possible? Pos- sible. Last spring, the government announced that U.S. forces were landing in the Dominion Repub- lic to protect 'thousands' of Americans and others imperil- led by the uprising there. Later, as the U.S. force grew greatly, there was another official rea- son given for the intervention: To prevent a Communist take- over. Describing the dangers, President Johnson told a news conference June 17 that 'some 1,500 innocent people were mur- dered and shot and their heads cut off." The government explanations were greeted Witt Tsing skeptic cism. Among others, Sen. J. William Fulbright (D--Arkan- sas), chairman of the foreign relations committee, which heard secret testimony on the subject, flailed the administra- tion for a "'lack of candor." He said it had used exaggerated reports of atrocities and the ex- tent of Communist control, had relied on "faulty advice . . . inadequate ... or false informa- tion." Today the government still insists its reasons for the inter- vention were valid and never contradictory. What it does con- cede--or at least one state de- partment officer concedes -- is that "perhaps our Dominican embassy can be faulted for re- laying unverified third-hand re- ports' which led to presidential discussion of mass head-chop- ping. In October, 1963, Defence Secretary McNamara predicted the. bulk of American military forces (then mostly "advisers"} would be out of Viet Nam by the end of 1965. Early in the spring of 1965, he predicted that neither U.S. combat treeps nor more money would be geeded in Viet Nam. Late in 1965, after his last trip to Viet Nam, the secretary said "We have stop- ped losing the war." And at least one Pentagon reporter was heard to grumble, "When did he ever say we were losing it?" Any man can guess wrong, but wrong guesses from Me- Namara: would seem as startl- ing as profanity from an arch- bishop Among war reporters in Viet Nam, the question is often asked: Is the government honest with the American people on enemy and American casual- ties?-The-gevernment insists # is, How, asks the reporter, Can you call American losses "light" when a whole company was wiped out? You can, -says the government, when a battal- ion was involved. 100% MORE OFFERS the Oshawa working man FouNTAT NHEAD OF SERVICE Plus! @ 4% Accounts Personal Chequing no service charges Guaranteed Invésiment | to $ yeors e@ 6% Certificates e@ Investment Funds Central Ontario Trust 90% MORE INTEREST Central Ontario Trust 19 Simcoe Street North, Oshawa HOURS 50% More Interest on savings (We ALWAYS. heve) 414% paid and compsunded querterly from the doy the account is opened.
