All responsible parents will endeavour to give their chil o the defence position on the Pacific even if it is the now died-in-the-wool Tory Globe and Mail of Toronto which takes its cue from recent timely utterances on the situation by Major-General I'earkes of Nanaimo. ""The contribution to the House of Comnious debates by Gen. Pearkes was one to awaken and Interest all thoughtful Canadians." said the Globe and Mall In an editorial. He spoke about Pacific defence and had two Important qualifications for doing so with authority. One Is his own military experience which Includes service In both World Wars culminating In his appointment as General Officer Commanding in Chief, Pacific Command. The other Is that he represents the constituency of Nanaimo, a base on the Pacific shore where a close-up view of Canada's defence preparations In that zone may be obtained. "According to General Pearkes. Canada Is doing very little there. The country, he says, is vulnerable to attack along the whole length of the British Columbia coast. He speaks of a 'gap' In defence extending from the United States border to the Aleutian Islands. Without berating the government or any Of its officers, he put forward some definite suggestions.

Not many Canadians will regard this as good enough. "The program set out by General Pearkes Is exactly the sort of question which should be examined by a Parliamentary committee, wi;h the help of defence experts. "Up till now the government has resisted all proposals to set up this committee. Its view is that such questions as those raised by the Nanaimo member are beyond the scope of members, should be decided by the Defence Minister or the Cabinet on expert advice and their own responsibility, and anyway must be kept secret. But the very fact that General Pearkes could make the speech he made explodes all these objections.

It would be very easy for a Canadian Defence Minister, anxious though he might be to live up to Canada's new security obligations, to slip back Into the old 'economical' way -.of thinking and neglect a vital responsibility. That there has .been just such neglect on our western coast appears to be the 'L. point of General Pearkes' speech.

Ul 1VT in W".'J PRAYER is the greatest force known for grappling with everyday problems and for achieving serenity of soul, declares Norman Vincent Peale, author of "A Guide to Confident Living," in The Read-fcr-s Digest for September. ! Not only does prayer have the power to calm our mind, Dr. Peale states, in an article condensed from Guidposts, but it can heal heartache and give . us clear vision to act for oureslves. "If angry, an- xious, vindictive or envious, you cannot think or act - wisely. But in prayer your emotions come under ; control and your intellect penetrates the essence of f a problem for the right answer." . Many businessmen use prayer as a reliable aid in ' their affair the author states. A leading depart-j ment store executive communes with God for 15 minutes each morning. An industrialist, who "uses his car as a chapel," states: "Driving to the plant, I :. talk over my problems with Him. Instead of des-; perately expecting a prayer to pull me out of a ' mess, I condition my mind in advance to make calm and rational decisions." The value of prayer was demonstrated, Peale says, in a recent sit-down strike at a large automobile plant. Management and unionists had reach- - ed an impasse. A union mass meeting, called for mid-afternoon despite the refusal of police to grant a permit, threatened violence and bloodshed. But at a conference preceding the mass meeting a preacher . suggested prayer and, "to his astonishment," every- one jointed. The resulting decision, a compromise by both sides led to a meeting that was a "completely .-peaceful affair." Conversation with God should be a constant habit, Peale urges, not a maddened plea when one is zt wit's end. "It is a Father and not a Santa Glaus '.that we must learn to speak to in trust amd obedience. The supreme model was given in the Gethse-.'mane prayer: 'Not my will but thine be done.'
