1 reexamining all drivers summer silhouettes it w announced lait week that in ell probability a new and periodical examina tion will be required of all motof cac driven the ostensible obect of the mow it to cut down on the orgy of death and destruction on our highways on the face of it such a move might appear laudable but we beg leave to doubt if it would be effective we believe it was elbert hubbard who evolved the epigram that the fear of the police is the spinal column of religion such we also believe is the attitude of the reck less driver toward traffic rules if tae police are not visible why bother withthe rules notice it yourself you may be driving well within the limit but you unconsciously slow down when one of those holsteln cars shows up so it would be with the reckless driver when under examination with the examiner sitting by his tide he would bo extremely careful to meticulously observe all the rules at a retulr he would pass his exam with firttclett honori and return to his reckless routine with a self approving sneer at how easy it was to get away with il it would seem that the present demerit system rigorously enforced is far more ef fective than a periodical re oxarnihation could possibly be and would not involve the extra expense of the latter the head of the o p p has asked for a sizeable increase in the number of traffic offlcor force to give a more effectivo check up on the highways it would probably be not more expensive than the conduct of a couple of million yearly examinations and would probably be a lot more effective the ridgetown dominion beware young at work mr ribicoff a member of the kennedy cabinet has created discussion by hi state ment that the laws concerning employment of children are too restrictive to illustrate his pomthe tolls of his own careaivwhieh apparently started as early as that of davy crockett within reason a bit of work on the part of boys and girls at a fairly early age does them no harm perhaps the greatest loss in the shifting of population from the farm to the city has been that farm children used to have chores to do and did them fairly well even the littlest child being a hunter of eggs one has yet to meet a person who had to work at an early age who feels that he suffered therefrom there are people who remember the rt hon arthur meighen as a man of great capacity he was a year older in university than was his great rival wil liam lyon mackenzie king the reason for the disparity was the young arthur meighen had to take a year out to earn some money for the furtherance of his education a misfortune for some young people who have to start working too early is that their education sometimes ends when they quit school others never cease to learn all or nearly all of the current crop of bank presidents started to work in banks when they left high school or even earlier yet in a gathering of the learned it would be difficult for the casual observer to tell the difference between the graduate of an ad vanced school and a graduate from a tellers cage physically it is highly probable that boys and girls who are protected by law are underexploited mentally it depends on whether there is the native urge to keep learning one interesting fact that has recently come to light although never concealed is that grattan o leary the editor of the ot tawa journal never had the privilege of attending high school yet tiff ts properly considered as one of the best informed in dividuals in canada and as an orator a worthy follower of the notable irishman after whom he was named he is an edit orial writer who is ever willing to give good advice to governments and others a former canadian who now occupies a preeminent position in his field in the united states sometimes tells of his exper tence as the oldest son of a large family in the retail business the store had to be opened at 7 a m wood had to be chopped fires had to be lit and all prepared for fa ther when he arrived at 8 it was a quick rush to school up the long hill and at nopn there was a run on foot each way so that the boy could have his own lunch and keep store while his father had his a similar routine followed the regular school hours and the store hours in those days did not admit of much leisure before 8 or 9 o clock there were also a horse and a cow to be looked after this was a little easier in winter than in summer for the pasture was some distance from the stable and tn the winter the hay had merely to be thrust down from the mow this may have been exploitation of the family by the father but the family ate more regularly because of the effort that had to go into the business it would be impossible in the present state of sentiment for there to be any step that would lead backward to the days when children of eight for fewer years worked in rnines and in similar places divide and conquer it is of their own making but there is no doubt that west berlin an island of free dom and prosperity must be a terrible ir ritation to the communist powers not the least of the embarrassment is the stream of refugees that flows to that island and on through the 100mtle escape corridor to the west by all marxian logic the flow should be in the other direction to the workers paradise behind the iron curtain following khrushchev s latest threat to sign a separate peace agreement with east germany the stream mounted to a new peak of 3 000 arrivals over a single weekend mainly of course the refugees fled through fear that the berlin loophole might be closed but all spoke of food shortages and farm ers told of rum of the farms through bureau cratic bungling smce the forced total col lectivization of agriculture last spring in dustrial workers said they abandoned their homes and possessions because of the con slant pressure to work more for less pay others forecast that the east german gov fnnienr v ii soon impose the internal pass port system identity cards valid only for a local district that will mean the loss of freedom of movement vsithin the country however the communists revival of the berlin crisis probably has motives other than simply to close the escape route and wreck wejt berlin prosperity perhaps china is pressing moscow to act tougher perhaps moscow wants a war scare to distract the attention of the russians from food short ages and other economic problems more likely however the main motive is the old one of attempting to divide the western powers there is no legal question of the allied military rights of conquest m west berlin the united states the united kingdom and france are fully empowered to garrison west berlin to protect the city s independence and its people and to have access to the city these rights exist until they a rn linquished by treaty or violated by fone of arms nor will these rights be lost to the allies if russia signs a separate ptnee treaty with east germany however it now appears that east get many backed by moscow w ii soon ch m that the allied rights of conqutst do not include freedom of civil an tnffic to wt st berlin this would be contrary to tht ac knowledgment def nitely g vtn by russ i n the four power agreement of 194 ir is a point that would make a n ce case for an international court of law but the com munists are not vntl ng to debite the po t in a court of law they hope that bli uer and double talk will scare us into t bick down on berlin and br ng d sun n the west 4 the acton free press piilltrttil by the dm priaulug and puhluhlni co ltd
