Asia as the part of the world to which ! he attaches most importance on his tflohe-girdlin.c; .our, Mr. St." Laurent is being governed by obvious facts. As an Atlantic nation and a member of MATO, Canada must take a vital interest in affairs n the European theatre; but as one of the major Pacific countries we are commuted to Far Eastern levelopments in a way not shared by many of our lilies. ' It is in Asia that much of the potential danger : war arises. Yet from sections of that great land mass, too, comes the promise of great peacetime trade possibilities for us. The latter consideration will be prominent in the Prime Minister's contacts with Japan, with which we are now formulating a trade pact. The vast potentials of India and Pakistan will attract particular attention during Mr. St. Laurent's tour. Both politically and economically the subcontinent is destine1 to play a powerful role in world- affairs. In talks with Prime Minister Nehru, the Canadian leader - will renew the acquaintanceship formed at Commonwealth gatherings and during the Indian's visit to Canada, and no doubt discuss in the friendly atmosphere of informality the position of India on many pressing problems. In this connection Mr. St. Laurent could perform a valuable service to the democratic cause by reason of his ability to serve as an intermediary between the anti-communist West and the heretofore uncompromisingly neutral India. Such a prospect is indicated in the Prime Minister's comment that "I hope to be able to bring back with me, and also to leave behind, not only useful this capital loves so dearly. budget debate, in which the bud WEV That night, at Government ' gel will hardly be mentioned at j '"i'r announced that the 10 per three years older than Germany, as a united nation.
