' It has beena great many years. since a member of the Royal Family visited us, decades, in fact. Yet Ter- race, by reason of its location, will be ‘host to Her Majesty the Queen this July 18. The last time a prime minis- ter visited us was back in about 1953 when the Rt. Hon. Louis St. Laurent came calling. Then we had a all from Governor-General Vincent Mas- sey, in 1955.. Remember when Prince Philip poured the first ingot at the opening of the Kitimat smelter in 1954. It is high time John Diefenbaker followed his footprints to Prince Rupert. There are many who would like to see our prime mistister and the City Council have many raatters to dis- cuss with him. A letter from Council to Mr. Diefenbaker would not be amiss at this time. The businessman reassessed tax sources. ‘It is becoming obvious that we need, above all, to foster the talents of the enterpriser who can see new. ways to combine our resourccs with labor and capital and make a _ profit; and who is willing to. take the risk involved in doing so. There is a proper saw-oft, no doubt, between the businessman’s responsibilities within his company-and his obligations to the community -where he carries on his business. But its’ about time that Canadians con- ceded taht the ability to run a business profita- bly is the real justification of the businessman's existence.. If we sustain the | myth: that “successful businessmen must prove their sterling qualities in. other fields,.we’re going to prevent them intensive use of their unique talent for devising ways for Canadians to. make a living. —The Financial Post. All Aboard with G. E. Mortimore My little boys have drawn my attention to a significant fact: In screen western, the good guys generally wear white hats and the bad guys often wear black hats. I had gone through the whole of my life without finding this out. My boys seldom knew what issues were being fought among the false store fronts and across the plains and mesas of the old West, but as soon as the horseback chase began, they knew how to sort out the opposing forces, Watching the occasional western on my TV screen and at movie theatres, I tested the “White Hat Theory,” and found that it gen- crally held good, at least in the old-fashioned hind of westerns. Recently I caught the second half of an interesting but mixed-up Western, It was one of the newer Westerns In which the bad guys arent’ all bad and the good guys arent? al] ‘good. ‘In the course of action, one of the rela- tively good guys found it necessary too shoot one of the fairly bad guys—for the man’s own welfare, of course. Up to that time, the relatively good guy ~had been wearing a white hat. When he played the execvtioner, he donned a black hat. Next day he was back to a white hat again. What happens in the true adult western, in which there are scarcely any good or bad guys - at all, but just maladjusted guys, victims of psychoses and social forces outside timir con- trol? I haven't taken careful stock of the head- gear in the adult western, but it seems to mea that only one hat color will be aceeptable: Grey, een INTERPRETING THE NEWS | ° Opening of seaway significant move for Queen _ , By KEN METHERAL Canadian Press Staff Writer The arrival of Queen Elizabeth and Prince Philip in Canada underlines in nove) but sig- nificant fashion ‘the sovereign’s role as Queen of Canada, The main reason for the royal couple’s 45-day cross-Canada tour being cared out at this time Js that It will allow the Queen to take part in ceremonies In Montreal June 26 officially Inaugurating the St, Lawrence Seawny, Participation in such ceremones Js part and parcel of the duties of royalty, for one tra- dition common to countries throughout the world Is that the task of officially opening a Innjor publle project devolves” on the head of . state, ov fe - The sovereign has been the recognized hond of state In Canada alnee 1760 when the enap- {tulntion of Montrenl following Wolfe's his- tare vietory on Quebee's Plains of Abraham a year cartier ended French rule In North Amer- jen, But the intereveniIng years | have brought a marked change in the Quoen's rolationship to Cnnadin as the country gradually evolved from colonial status to full Independent membership in the Commonwealth, ' The British North Ameren Act of 1967 pro- vided that “executive government and authe ority of and over Canada is... verted in the Queen” In 1926, the Imperial Conference In TLon- don acknowledged the equality of atrutus of the United Kingdem and the Dominions na auto- nomous communities, That canferance niso recognized that “it is the right of the govern. ment of erch Dominion to advise the crown fy al) mattiors relating (oo Its own affairs” o In 1936, King Goorga VI took an oath “to fovern the people of Canada nceording to thoir nwa and customs’ ‘and when ‘he cane to Cans ndain 1090, he did so ns King of Canndna, ’ +} Queen Fivabeth followed hor fathor's pre- eedent when she visited Canada In 1967 ta become the first sovercign to open the Can- adjan Parliament, And when she subsequently visited the United States she did so as Queen of Canada, Aside from occasional royal visits, the per- sonal participation of the Queen jn the fune- tions of the Crown in Canada has heen largely limited to such occasions as the granting of honors and awards, apyproval of changes in the table of jrecedence, institution of new mill- tary awards on the periodic appointment of f povernor-general, In visiting Canada to open the scaway, she Is showing her determination to particl- pate, as fully as her Commonwenlth duties permit, in events of outstanding signifiennce to her Canadian subjects and to lend to such events the lustre of the Crown. wereereomnee Mathematical genius The head necountant for n large corpora- tion had worked for the company for thirty years and every morning when he ontored the office he wnlocked his desk, peered Into the contar drawer for a long moment, then locked it up again.

Gordon..: os Don. -Morris;. woh. ‘Pousette, Carl Dumka and myself had boked a trip down Douglas Channel with Gordon as skip- per, but it was raining . and there was no sign of it clear- ing up. However, we all had rainproof clothing, and the grub ‘had been. purchased.’ “Are there gale warnings out?” I inquired. “No,” said Gordon. “Well, we will be down at the wharf at 8 o’clock,” I said, We stowed our Pear away on the Robinson gillnetter and were on our way to Echo Bay to troll for spring salmon. Thanks to the Coleman stove, a pot of coffee was soon ready and we made a hearty break- fast of hamburgers, spiced with lots of onion. We drew a: blank — at Echo Bay. and decided to push on to Giltoyees or Lon? Inlet. The crew, meanwhile, was busy cutting up small black cod and herring and baiting the 120 hooks of the skate, preparing it for our first set. : We arrived at our destina- tion at low tide and after making one set we anchored near shore and set our crab nets. Soon we had a mess of crabs boiling and shortly after- wards had lunch. It was now time-.to pull up our line and we made a book on the number of fish caught. John Pousette was the win- ner with nine fine halibut, the others being rat and dog- fish. We had a 34-foot dug- out canoeo equipped with an outboard motor and we started out to hunt bear along: the banks of the river that flows into the head of. Giltoyees. The motor, in spite of three electrical experts, refused to start so we returned to the boat and made another set. We took another five hali- but and John again. won the pool. We again set our crab nets and caught enough to fill the five-gallon aluminum pot three times. Enthusiasm | for crabs began to diminish and a combination sandwich of peanut butter, grape jelly, cheese and honey was popular. ‘Coffee was served on the hour, every hour. ‘ We set our line for the third time of the day and turned in at midnight. Three of us slept in the’ cabin and the other. two in the stern which we covered with a canvas. It rain- ed steadily all night. We were up at 7 a.m. Sun- day and again found five hali- but on the line.”’No one won the sweepstakes. We changed our location slightly and made our fourth set which drew a blank but every hook was cleaned off by sea lice. It was still raining. Our dinner con- sisted of minced beef and onions, honey, chili sauce and beans all cooked together. It was a very appetizing dish, everyone agreed. Five people ilving on a com- paratively smal] boat find lots, to do besides getting into each .other’s way, or hair. Sleeping, eating and talking are import- ant and, of course, there Is the scenery to admire, bilge and stove to pump, cups to rinse, shores to scan through field glasses, and the odd seal to take a pot shot at. On the 980th try this year, Carl Dumke hit one but It sank before we could reach it and cut off its nose for a hounty. Occasionally, someone puts water jn the stove tank Iin- stead of naphtha, and in the preparntion of hamburgers sec- tions of the newspaper find thelr way with the seasoning. If anyone complains, they tnke over the cooking, The cook la continually belng flattered. There is never a scarcity of volunteers for Channel trips, although I sometimes think these fellows must be hard to manage when they return to home and suburbia, eee rer ereceet neem -Foreiqn capital Fram The Vancouver Rn oe Canndians who have been frotting about the amount of foralgn capltal—particularly U.S, capital—inveated In Cane nda, might be Interested to know that n great deal of the cnpital Invested In the A. 18 also foralgn, Nenrly 34 billions of it, to ha exnct. - Fortune magazine, making a recent aurvey into the matter, has discovered that, not only are forelgnera buay buylng In the U8. but they're buying up more every yenr, Sinen 1048 foreign investments | have jumped from $36.0 billion to $33.0 bilion.

This makes a RT aaa ee Common sense, courtesy, obeying rules keys to safety afloat in boating season | National Boating Week has been proclaimed in Canada this year from June’21 to June 27. Sponsored by the Marine Association of Canada, this per iod is devoted to 4 national water education program for Canadians early in the boating season, “It is estimated that more than 750,000 Canadian fam- jlies own pleasure boats,” de- clares Robert Kelly, manager of the Marine Association of Canada. “Many thousands more go boating each year in a rented or borrowed boat. Canadians the | most. boating conscious people on earth.” Canada provides unequaled natural facilities for- pleasure boating, accord- ing to Mr. Kelly. Thousands of lakes and rivers, canals and reservoirs produce ideal boat- ing waters in all provinces. “It is apparent, however,” he said, “that. many of these weekend skippers do not ap- preciate their responsibilities afloat. National Boating Week will stress such themes as the rules of the road, a check list of boating equipment required by law, and the encourage- ment of courtesy and common sense afloat.” Among the nationai organiz- ations supporting National Boating Weck are the Cana- dian Boating Federation, the Canadian Tourist Association and the Department of Trans- port. All marine dealers across Canada have heen asked to make boats and motors avail- able to demonstrate safe boat- ing practices to the general public. Many of these dealers ara also offering free boating booklets and safety informa- tion during this period. “Pleasure boating is still one "and many who should Boating mishaps increasing ‘From The Reader's Digest With no other qualification than money to buy the equip- ment, too many people are setiing out on our waterways in high powered bonts and adding to the mounting total of accidents, Injuries and deaths on the water, Nearly al] bonting accidents can be prevented if operators are careful and courteous and understand the rules of bonat- eratt. Many boating experts feel It is more difficult to manocuvre a bont than an automobile, A boat js on a fluid, ever- changnig medium and a prey to the vagaries of wind and wave.

But because of the great num- ber of families participating, accidents and tragedies con- tinue to occur on Canadian waters. It.is to prevent these accidents, however few, that National Boating Week was proclaimed.” Handling a pleasure boat can be likened to driving a car. Indeed there are many simil- arities such as keeping to the right and yielding the right of way to the craft on the right or starboard. However there are also many important differences. Thor- ough knowledge and continued practice of the rules of the waterways is necessary to keep boating a -pleasure for all. Write the Marine Division, Department of Transport, Ot- tawa, and ask for.a copy of their free booklet “Safety Afloat.” It is written especially for weekend skippers. Tf you are not sure of the recommended maximum cap- acities of your boat check with your local marine dealer or write the manufacturer. If you are buying a new hoal be sure to look for the Canadian Boating Federation rating plaque usually attached to the stern.
