The rea- !son for his entry is the fact that he has refused a very important job with NATO, and it is known to be a fact that he could have had the job of Secretary General of that organiza- tion if had wanted it. Since then the Prime Minister has made reference to this in a speech which he made in the House of Commons and "has made many flattering remarks about Mike Pearson. Many feel that this is a good indication of the Prime Minister's choice to succeed him as Leader of the Liberal Party. The picture has changed to the extent that 'Mike Pear- son is now the favourite son to fill the shoes of the present Prime Min- ister as Leader of the Liberals. The Canadian Labour Congress, which has a membership of over one millign, presented their annual Brief to the Federal Government here at Ottawa last week. The Brief covered | most phases of our economy but par- cularly those aspects that have bear ing on labour and unemployment in- surance. As usual, the Government does not intend to act on any of the suggestions in the Brief during this | present Session of Parliament.

ASHTON, Pickering, Ontario Phone 157 (Pickering Township) a During the early part of this Session the. Debate on'.the Speech from the Throne was adjourned to permit the introduction by the Prime Minister of a Bill creating the "Canada Council", This Bill is the yesult of the Massey Commission recommendation which was made some six years ago that a Canada Council be created to develop the arts, sciences and humanities in Canada. Last fall the Prime Minister announced that he intended to proceed with the creation of the Council and that there would be paid to that Coun- cil the sum of $50,000,000, which 'would be administered for capital ex- penditures for universities during the next ten years, A further sum of $50,000,000 would be granted which would be invested by the Council and the income only used for the develaop- ment of culture, All members of the House are unan- imously in support of the $50,00,000 grant to the universities but there is a wide division of opinion with re- speet to the $50,000,000 grant for cul- ture, Bome members of Parliament feel that the Minister of Finance, who is faced with a tremendous surplus, is seeking a way to reduce this huge amount by allocating it to these capi- tal items, The original report of the Massey Commission recommended that Parlia- ment provide a subsidy every year to the Canada Council. The Prime Min- isters proposal is that we give it a capital grant of $50,000,000 and allow it to use the income as it sees fit. This means that over the period of the next ten years Parliament would have no contral over the way the money was spent and the Council would make a report once a year fo. parliament but there would be no opportunity of controlling the organization or of do- ing more than criticize what it might have done in the past. If, however, Parliament had to vote a subsidy every year, that amount could be enlarged or reduced. This would depend entirely how Parliament thought the Council were carrying out their activities. There are. of course, a great many Members who are concerned over the matter of Old Age Pensions, Disability Pensions, War: Veterans Allowances and the Blind Persons Pensions. The recipients of these pensions are find- ing it difficult to eke out an existence under the present payments. There is no doubt that the time has long since passed when the Government should increase the amount of Old Age and other pensions. Here you have $60,- 000,000 lightly set aside for culture and yet the pensioner is told that the government cannot increase his sti- pend beyond $40,00 a mounth. Be- cause of these facts this matter of the Canada Council may take some time and will develop into a long and crit- ical debate, This week the Senate set up a 26- man Committee charged with a Site. spread study of land use in Canada, a job which is described as one of the most important the Senate has cver undertaken. The purpose of this com- mittee is to make a broad survey of land use in Canada, to fix public at- tention on all aspects of this problem and to invite the best minds in the country to set out their views' as tq the propey selution, partieularly as they There's always good listening on CBC Radio los] =] 0s TRANS-CANADA NETW CBC RADIO Trans- Ganada ® Housekeeping hints eo Cooking school ° News commentary ° Joyce Sullivan sings Next week -- Reading of the novel "Gully Fdrm'" written by Mary Hiemsira reff ORK HOW BOUT THAT THIS NEWSPAPER DEDICATED TO REPORTING THE NEWS AND EVENTS AS HONESTLY AS IT 3 SEES THE PORT PERRY STAR OFFICIAL NEWSPAPER --_-- ' A NECESSITY 1 UL) ju > THE PORT PERRY STAR, THURSDAY, FEBRUARY 21st, 1057-17 would benefit the farmer and tend to raise farm incomes, This is indeed a | step in the right direction and it is to be hoped that this Committee will come up with a solution which will be Mr. and Mrs. Wallace Marlow spent the week-end with Dr, and Mrs. Jack Marlow and family, Lively, Ontario.
