“We must work at Geneva to
end the nuclear arms race,”
said T. C. Douglas, testily.

“We must have an all-party

“We should allow no nuclear
arms on Canadian soil,” said 4

sible for the new public attitude? A
woman, Miss Rachel Carson, the fa-
mous American biologist, with her
current best-seller “Silent Spring.”
This book has had a tremendous im-
pact in the United States and else-
where, in alerting people to the dan-
vers “Inherent in the indiscriminate
use of pesticides,

Miss Carson’s book should be read
and understood by all, because it has a
direct bearing on the survival of the
human species. In its basic thesis it

JAMES K. NESBITT SAYS

 

and that indiscriminate destruction of
any one species, however insignificant
it may seem to human beings, can
have a drastic effect on a long-term
cycle.

Briefly, Miss Carson demonstrates
that by widespread spraying of crops
—whether forests or cultivated fields
with toxic substances—we run grave
risks. We silence our birds, who are

killed by eating the poisoned. insects;

we pollute our streams and hence kill
or affect plant and marine life. And
we add minute quantities of poisons
to all foods taken into our own bodies,
Furthermore, we find that insects
build a remarkable resistance to these
chemical sprays and species have
evolved that are immune, creating a
yet greater problem and so ad infini-
tum.
In other words we are shown that
a quick short-term remedy is not only
ineffectual but may be extremely dan-
gerous in dealing with complex prob-
lems on a purely scientific basis. — ,
Forcibly, we are made to realize
that we still have a fantastic amount

command, The fields of challenge are

unlimited, and we should devote a far
greater proportion of our wabilities
and energies to guarding the tender
balance of life instead of destroying
recklessly. |
Therefore it is important that we
keep our perspective in the great
space race. When we hail the conquer-
ing heroes of space, we should remem-
ber and encourage the quiet work be-
ing done by men — and women — in
building a better world of our own,

His Honor and Mrs. Pearkes: a vital couple

VICTORIA — I never cease
to be amazed at the terrific
energy of Lieutenant - Gov-
ernor George Randolph
Pearkes, VC, and Mrs. Pearkes.
They are almost constantly on
the go. When they're not tra-
velling around the province or
opening sornething or other or
going out to puble dinners,
they're entertaining at Gov-
ernment House.

However, they're a relaxed
couple and know how to take
it easy when they can. They
enjoy the gardens at Govern-

governor’s lady boosts their
cause.

Next Saturday. the governor
and his wife will attend op-
ening ceremonies of the new
wing of Royal Jubilee Hospi-
tal here, with the genial gen-
eral, doing the honors, as
Queen Victoria’s son, the Duke
of Connaught did at the same
hospital in 1891.

From the hospital, Mrs.
Penarkes will be off to open an-
Other garden party.

Next Sunday His Honor will
attend a church parade of the

starlL on another job of some
kind, T think he should write
his memoirs. Already he has
had a@ monumental career —-
policeman, soldier, politician,
member of parliament, cabinet
Minister, Heutenant-vyovernor,

He has leared to take ey-
erything in his stride, never
to pet excited, T don't suppose
he has ever had a dull mo-
ment in his life.
