It was a his- toric and thrilling- moment here on capitol hill last Friday when fitting: and impressive ceremonies marked the realization of that dream of con- federation from sea to sea. The people of Canada’s tenth province are wholeheartedly welcomed and I am sure in the days to come they will make a worthwhile contribution to the building- of this great country. Atlantic Pact With refreshing and encouraging With refreshing and encouraging spirit of non-partisanship the House this week endorsed the North Atlanâ€" tic pact with only two dissenting votes. The dissenters were two is- olationist Bloc Populaire Members from Quebec province. Prime Min- ister St. Laurent and leaders of all opposition members delivered mem- orable addresses which were on a very high plane. All agreed that the purpose of the North Atlantic pact is peace and security. It sets up administrative machinery for de- fence, for co-operation and consulta- tion. The unanimous reception of the pact by Parliament emphasized our national unity on a fundamental question of international policy. It showed that no matter how vigorous-v 1y parties.may differ on domestic matters, as we should in a healthy democracy, in Parliament and in the country we share as a united people the problems of peace and collective security. Television" I think the great majority of Can- adians will support the government decision to place television in Canada under public control. The government is asking- Parliament to vote 4 mill- We have also gained a still greater appreciation of our own country and the standard of living we enjoy here. Perhaps this is because more than once during our stay in Britain, we heard the opinion expressed that the people’s lives are becoming nationâ€" alized to such an extent that they are gradually losing some of their rights as democratic citizens. Whether this is true or not, we are not in a position to judge. Our general impression of conditions in Britain are, on the whole, quite fa- vourable. It is true that they are passing through strenuous and unâ€" certain times and that the currency situation is bad. ,But on the other hand, despite privations, they remain cheerful and calm and seem to feel that their present difficulties are only temporary. We didn’t find the same worrying about the future and about the possibility of war as there is in this country and certainly not nearly as much as in the United States. Britishil’arms Highly Mechanized The farms we visited were not only mechanized but employed the most modern and efficient methods and had higher crop yields than Ontario farms. We were quite amazed at the advanced stage of mechanization of falms in Britain. The stables were spotless and the milk was handled so‘ 1- n During our travels we came in contact with the farmer, the indus- trialist and the ordinary business man. Strange to say, no one ap- peared to be in accord with the pres- ent labour government, yet all seem to feel that their program is the right one to pull the country togeth- er. Most of the people we talked to expressed the Opinion that in the event of an election the government would be re-elected because its policy has been to improve conditions for the labour class which holds the bal- ance of power. It is quite evident that the average citizen feels that the Labour Government has come to stay. for a while at least. If this is true.

Paul Martin, {Minister of Health, gave notice this week of planned amendments to Family Alâ€" lowance legislation. The amendments propose a change from three to one year the residence period required as one of the conditions of eligibility of immigrant children, also $epeal of the provision which reduces the am- ount of allowances in a family of more than four. In the riding of North York 15,186 children qualify for family allowance representing a monthly payment in this riding of $81,116.00. . Easter Recess Canada is the third greatest trad- ing‘ nation in the world. In 1948 our trade reached five and three-quarter billion dollars â€"â€" or $460 for every man, woman and child in Canada. Family Allowances - The House adjourns Friday for‘ a two Weeks’ Easter recess. During this period I look forward to visiting many sections of North York riding and meeting people in all parts of the constituency. Anyone wishing to see me may contact me at my office in Richmond Hill and I repeat what I have said many times in this column, that nothing gives me more genuine pleasure.and real satisfaction than being able to be of service to the people of North York in any matters of business pertaining to federal government. Please feel very free to call me. My telephone numbers in Richmond Hill are 9 and 255. ‘ While we were anxious to learn all we could abOut conditions in Britain, the British people appeared eager for information about Canada. Wherever we went we were beseig‘ed with quesâ€" tions. Some of course, were quite impossible to answer, like the man who asked if we knew his cousin en Saskatchewan. When spokesman at social fun- ctions, I emphasized that in Canada there is a fine spirit of cooperation between the agricultural industry and business. As an example I cited the fact that Canadian firms have been most generous in donating prizes for our county and international matchâ€" es and that the expenses of our trip were paid jointly by two companies. Need International Plowing Rules We were interested to learn the average Britisher’s reaction to the cancellation of the government’s food contract with Canada. Everyone we met, particularly the farmers, seem- ed to regret and even resent the gov- ernment’s decision in this matter. The people, expressed sympathy for Canada and said the action was a poor return for the part Canada had played in the war and pastwar years in providing men, money and supplies to help them through. However, they did feel that it was probably the only course open to the government in View of the country's critical dollar position. n the 01d governmental policies that have been adhered to for generations, greatly revolutionized: British plowmen are anxious to participate in Canadian matches and plans are under way to make this possible. It is hoped that the Eng- Iish teams will be able to get spon- sors who will take care of their ex- penses on the same basis as the firms who sponsored us. A trust fund has been established for this purpose and Mr. L. A. Greene of Port Arthur, Ontario is trying to interest Can - dian busineSS men in subscribing to this fund. Mr. Greene came from Workington, England, and is a vice- president and Canadian representaâ€" tive of the Workington Agricultural Society. I sincerely hope Mr. Greene’s efforts will be successful because' these exchange visits are helpful in promoting understanding and co-op- eration between our two countries. The boys and I have returned to Canada with a great admiration for the British peeple. With courage and a steadfast determination they are This is the third year that Cana- dian plowmen have visited Britain and I believe it has been profitable both for us and for the British far- mers. However, there is an urgent need for greater uniformity in reg- ulations, type of plows used and standards of judging- at the matches. As things stand, the Canadians are at a disadvantage when competing in Britain and the same thing applies when the British compete in Canada. fheir' country All the pe thing possibl gomg All the people we met did every- thing possible to make our stay en- joyable and we shall always remem- be the kindness and hospitality.
