Kennedy have eagle and gone. It was a won. derful &ww v•itli the red flags un 1 red -coated Mountleo eon. trusted against the new spring Weenery and :tulips. Mrs. Thomas and I were in-, \iced to be present .at the pub-' lte reception when :they .or - rived et Uplands Airport. We: saw them walk along the 200 feet of red carnet stretched• from the huge glistening pres idential plaa.e to the reception centre. We also were present when Mr. Kennedy spoke in the House. He shook hands with all the MP's and senaters in the speaker's chamber im- mediately afterwards. it wilt be hogecl by all that the visit will cement :more firmly than ever the very de- sirable and very necessary friendship between Canada and our great neighbor to the south, Award WEi changes 11lost of the legislation fore- cast in the :Speech from the Throne has been introduced wanti much of it has been cam - pleted. One notable exception is the promised amendments to the Unemployment insur- ance Act which could prove to be a contentious matter and provoke a long debate. This happened in the case of the "class or kind" Customs Act amendment which . the op- position strongly opposed in the commons and which the senate is threatening to turn down. Last week the minister of justice introduced a gov't bill to amend the law concerning capital punishment. It divides murder into two kinds; capital murder and non capital mur- der. The amendment is intended to serve as a compromise be- tween those who favor the abo- lition of •capital punishment and those who think it should be retained. There is some criti- cism of the present govern- ment for commuting so many death sentences to life impris- onment. This amendment night tend to ease such criticism. Personally, 1 would prefer to she the law stand as it is with the government committed to a review of all death sentences, until such time as the public is willing to 'abolish the death penalty entirely, I fear that the proposed amendments will only stir up a debate and sat- isfy nobody. Veterans all across the coun- try will welcome the introduc- tion of the bill to increase veterans' allowances. It is ex- pectedthat the increases, per- eentage wise, will be in line with the twenty percent gen- eral increase in veterans' dis- ability pensions which came into effect on March. 1. This in- crease will assist our veterans to cope with the difficulties arising from the increased cost of living. Unemployment to remain? Another of the recent inter- esting developments was the appearance of James Coyne, the governor of !the Bank of Canada, before the senate com- mittee studying unemployment. hlr. Coyne told the committee that we are likely to have con- tinued unemployment. 1 -le 'thinks that economic conditions in Canada are on the upgrade and wilt go on improving but that our expan- cion will not be fast enough or substantial enough in the immediate future to provide jobs for all the unemployed as well as for the rapid natural increase in our working force resulting from the high birth rate • following World War ll. He pointed out that more in- centive for Canadian industry is required than that which can be provided by orthodox in a nipula tion of Our mono supply, Mr. Coyne in his vert a'esponsible public position has to be careful what be says. The committee was unable to pin him down to any specific suggestions as to what should be done. He spoke in general terms only. • „ Concern over Cuba The Cuban situation, although. not so tense as it was several 1 weeks ago, is still a cause for grave concern. Suggestions have been made in the House of Commons shy opposition speakers that the government should protest the action of the United States in providing support for the abor- tive revolutionary invasionat- tempt. 'rile government has taken the •stand !that under present circumstances a public state- ment of protest might do more harm than good. The minister of external affairs, lion. How- ard Green, has stated that the United States government is kept fully and constantly in- formed of the Canadian atti- tude. There is some feeling, ex- pressed privately, that our neighbors to the south are showing signs of inconsistency in their international attitude. They were among the first to condemn Britain and France for taking unilateral action, at Suez a few years ago -they( have subscribed strongly in the past to the theory that nations shouldbe free to choose their. own form of government: but the thought of .a government in Cuba friendly with the com- munist powers, seems to have been too much for their ac- cepted standards of security andi there were suggestions .im- plied, during the crisis, that direct military action night have to be considered. Any such intimation as this creates 'profound uneasiness, not only on Parliament Hill, but everywhere in Canada and in the free world. It is fervent- ly hoped that our neighbors to the south will find it possible to continue to stand with Can- ada, Britain and other free nations solidly behind the the- ory of self-determination and to continue their support for that theory in international af- fairs. Lucan recreation By SAM SCREATON Director of Recreation A week ago Saturday, the Forest City Kennel Club held. their 18th Annual All Breed (Benched) Dog Show in the Lu - can Arena, This was a new experience for. Lucan :and one that proved most interesting, particularly to those who bad not seen such a show before. There were large, medium and small -- yes, andvery small — dogs; dogs of just about every kind known. The obedience trials were. particularly of interest to many, and amazing to most in the extremely high degree in which the, dogs learn, and. per- form. Plans are under way to make this anannual event for Lucan. Also on the same Saturday, the Lucan Boys entry in the "Big Four" Football loop, jour- neyed to Parkhill (with only seven players) to start off their season. They didn't fare so well coming out on the short end of a 28 to 12 score. However, this was the first time out for the boys and when the lad's played their second game last Friday evening in Lucan !against the Ailsa Craig Boys Farm, they reversed the situation, winning out over the Boys Farm lads by :a score of 25 to 11. Next Friday evening, • the boys journey to Ailsa Craig to play their third. game. Last Friday, the Lucan Teen Town held their fourth Record Hop and the group was the largest to date. It is most gra- tifying to see the Teen Town growing — may it continue to prosper, This will be the last get-together until after exams, The next date for 'the Teen Town Record Hop will be an- nounced as soon as exams are finished with. Soon summer holidays will be upon us and many will be journeying away to cottages and camps. Even those who will be staying home, will be going swimming, boating, etc. for their individual enjoyments. This is also the season for many accidents, many of them needless, So es word of cau- tion, learn and practice safety at all 'times.
