TASt week 'this editorial column ex-
ssed the opinion that those who
were ready to.condemn Great 'Britain
for her action in the invasiOn of the
81.1ez area were jumping to ill-founded,
conclusions. The events and news re-
leases of the past week would appear
to vindicate our prediction, for even
the Canadian government now admits
that the action, in the Middle East
seems to have been justified by neces-
sity in many ways,
The outstanding and reliable jour-
nalist, Lionel Shapiro, reported from
ondon late la the 'week that Britain
had learned through her intelligence
• service, that Colonel Nasser of Egypt
had formulated plans for "palace"
revolutions in Trans-Jordan and Syria.
By 'these ,political upheavals it Was his
intention to plade in anthdrity officials
who would assist, him to form a Mili-
tary alliance in all the Arab states and
so enable him to proceed with the des-
truction of the State of Isriel.
• In the face of the knowledge that
Soviet antis had been sent to Egypt it
appeared that once again the old, pat-
tern of Rtissian disturbance Would
emerge. The Arabs would- be encour-
aged to engage in, a war which would
provide an excuse for the intervention
of SOviet forces in the Suez 'area, which
they have coveted since the days of the
Crimean War.
Shapiro states that Britain atid
did not present the evidence, of

This. is the time of year -when var-
iouS cl4bs and organizations are , deep
in Their 'Fall program of meetings and
activities. Many ;of them invite otit-
. side speakers to address 'their groups
on subjects. of 'interest to the majority
of members.
,
One of those is most genetOtis with
his time in this connection is
Haskell, 'General Manager of the to

cause the Bureau exists to-bring about
the best possible understanding be-
: tween firms and inclividuuals engaged
in businesS and the public, Mr. -Haskell
is' always h4ppy, to bring infOrmatiOn
on business matters to organization's.
However, in, behalf of other ,speakers,
.he feels that these groups soinetithei—
; quite unintentionally show a lack
of consideration for the men and wo-
men who,, without remuneration, often
at considerable` effort' and itiCenveni-
ence to themselves, take time to pre-
pare and deliver a talk of this kind.

TRACTOR, }ACCIDENTS
Serious injuries to a Wroxeter man

is about time some thought was given •

dent' each year are recorded) in Which

it is Obvious, of eotirse, that a trac-
tor must be operated over terrain
which provides a hazard, but it is
equally obvious that manufacturers
and farm organizations should study
the 'possibility of changes in the de-
sign of tractors 'which would prevent
a large proportion of the accidents,
The first rejoinder, of cotirse, is
that the accidents are often the result
of poor judgment and careless -use of

recently. Naturally, he spends some
time preparing his talk in addition to
the, personal leisure he gives Up on the
evening he speaks. So it is only court-
esy that :the officers of the organiz-

enough attendance to make the speak.
ea< feel it has been worth his while".
Another point orginzations should
bear in mind is to give the speaker
warning enough so 'that he has an op-
portunity to plan his talk. Also, even
though a speaker makes no charge for
his services, the organization should
try to see to it that he has no out of
pocket expenses for transportation or
• meals, gasoline or hotel, bills.
The most unfair thing that club
groups do to a speaker is to precede
his talk -With a long business meeting
or long series of reports. lheu When
the air is heavy, the audience fidgetty
and an appetizing odour of coffee per-
meates the hall, they call. on him to
speak,
Having delivered himself Of this
counsel to organization officers, Mr,
Haskell admitted with a laugh that he
always enjoys a cup of coffee, that he
really likes telling people about the
work of the Bureau and being invited
to address women's groups is no hard-
ship to him. He just hates being the
last weary item on a long program,
ARE TOO COMMON
There are many -ways in which
farm tractors could be made safer for
the opvator. The basic design of these
machines is ,unsafe in the first .place,
with narrow-set wheels and a very
high centre of gravity. If these two
factors are utterly necessary for the
proper operation of the machine, then
such additional equipment as over-
head bars would help to prevent
operator being pinned when the trac-
tor rolls, Used in conjunction with a
'safety belt such bars might save many
a life. • Though the idea may stnincl
foolish to an old tractor hand, most
motorcycle riders of even twenty years
ago will tell you of the number of
broken legs prevented, by crash bars
of the same type. '
We think that the farm organiza-
tions should at least institute a safety
campaigti. aloeg lines similar to •the
one which urged safe 0X ,, driving on
their members a few,months ago. Vol-
low the 'news carefully for only a few
days in the summer and note the as-
` tortishing number of children,who are
injured in falls ',from tractors on which
loving fathers and uncles have per-
mitted them to tide,
Any type of calamity which dialing
human lives and injures human bodies
is deserving of close study. When
enough attention is available -a soht-,

The first snowfall of the season
was Friday night and the ground
was very beautiful on Saturday
morning with its blanket of snow
which varied in depth from 2 to 4
inches in this community. All day
Saturday, Sunday and Monday a
wet snow fell that pretty much
melted ,as It hit the ground but it
did not all disappear. This is just
a forerunner of what we will ex-
perience later on as many are of
the opinion that we will still hli.ve

prepare for winter if this has not
already been done.

sufficient to complete our plan, of
giving at least two doses of vaccine

"The administration of three mil-

ous task. Local health authorities
from now on will be announcing
their vaccination program dates,
and I urge patents to cooperate in
every way to see that their child-

the appointed time.
"This is a community effort and
health departments .cannot be ex-
