The International Civil Aviation Organization deserves full blame for giving English a privileged and totally intolerable supremacy. in the air. In the early stages of aviation ex- pansion, the British and Americans imported their own controllers into foreign airports where landing rights were obtained in non-English areas. It was just an ex- 'ension of this defacto situation, when English was panted as the language to be •ed between foreigners, during landing procedures. e wrath and anger against e unjust use of English -has en mitigated by the fact, at to elevate French or some other national language to take the place already held y English. instead of solving the problem, would only _give unequal advantage to another national language. The only just and workable solution. to the problem is to strip English of , its privileged position, and replace it with a language equally acceptable to all, the world auxiliary' language, Esperanto.

To extend the right to French Canadians to speak in. French when landing in Quebec, is simply. to extend the right, recognized in- ternationally, to speak one's own official language when landingon home territory. That has been considered safe for decades, so why pretend that safety is at stake now. John Condit wrote in the July issue of Macleans, "Beneath all the pious talk of 'keeping the airways safe' is a simple case of racism.." The real danger at large airports exists precisely because English is used between foreign pilots and controllers. Tragedies have already occurred because of a variety of pigeon English syllables mispronounced by Japanese, Portuguese and other pilots while landing. English is not suited for in- ternational use at airports and creates hazards. It is not phonetic and i:S difficult to learn. The world, as well as the Canadian problem could be solved and safety achieved, only by adopting Esperanto as the language of aviation. Dr. Margaret Mead, in an article for the MAINLINER of Los Angeles wrote, "A second language would have to be introduced simultaneously all over the world - perhaps by satellite - but especially in airports, on planes, and in all in- ternational com- munications."

Under the proposed revised system, eight Standing Committees would be established, with no Member being forced to serve on any two Committees. A Standing Commtttee would be able to call wit- nesses, to set up sub- committees, and, in general, to expand the depth and quality of their in- vestigations. Here again, the aim is to foster and promote the involvement and input of as many Members as possible. These Committees would meet throughout the Session and be able to travel around the Province, as required. The Committee's recom- mendations seek to change one practice which has, quite understandably. confused visitors to the Legislature. To date, at the time of a vote, the Speaker directs the Clerk to "call in the Members", and division bells ring. Those Members in the Chamber promptly leave, secure in the knowledge that the bells will ring for a long period, often in excess of half - an -hour - sometimes for several hours.- The ours.The Report • recommends that a fixed period be established, possibly twenty minutes, between the calling of a vote and the vote itself. This would provide, sufficient time for Members to assemble, and the fixed time - limitation would help to speed up proceedings in the Chamber.
