Certainly the program will be conducive to a full measure of debate on the part of the provincial solons and it should be lively debate too since there is much contentious subject matter. The plan for contributory old age pensions $40 a month without the means test instead of the present $50 a month (including bonus of $10 and vlth the means test) is wide open for much keen v discussion. Of course, the whole thing is dependent upon amendment to the British North America Act. The proposal to obtain for the province the right to impose indirect sales tax may not ride so easily and much talk about that and a variance of views is to be anticipated. The Throne Speech does not contain too many surprises for most of the matters on which it forecasts legislation without going too deeply at this time into details have been much in public discussion for some time now and have been demanding attention. Matters which the Speech says are due for consideration include the deal with the Aluminum Co. of Canada, something of keen interest to this particular section of the country; methods of voting, and the political implications attached thereto; civilian defence' co-ordination, which is long overdue, and removal of gas and oil controls. Matters which some had expected might be included in the Throne Speech included cocktail bars and rent controls. The Throne Speech may not have emphasized them hut, doubtless, they will be heard about in some way or another.

Mr. Clarke's article abounds in contradictions of he Holy Scripture. It is not our purpo.se to give a full analysis in this letter but THERPj IS, just now, the burning question of the crossing of the '!8th parallel in Korea. It is undeniably important that, in war, military decisions which may have political consequences shall not be taken on purely military grounds. That principle is now accepted and established. But this question of the Parallel has iot in many people's minds out of all perspective. There is a mystique of the Parallel almost a superstition about the Parallel.

Assembly of a resolution condemning the Chinese aggression in Korea, and very many people have come to believe that, had the resolution not been passed, there would by now have been agreement on a cease-fire. That is, to say the least of it, doubtful, yet many people have come to take it for granted. It is another case of attaching overmuch importance to isolated details instead of looking At the underlying causes.
