Dear Editor . r.

testate;:, -•educe the whole .sad
,xn,ess into a strictly- English;
versus Frencleaffair.
The present arrogance of
the Canadian Air Line Pilot's
Association, that only English
should be used at•airports in
Canada,. is caused by the
'unjust and privileged position
which English assumed
abroad, as a result of British
and .American domination of
..-? - the aircraft industry. Britain
and America led the way in a'
'aviation technology. It was
therefore inevitable that they
woad assume that English
..sholld_:be the "international
language- of aviation."
Recent bumper stickers .have
proclaimed this fact - proof.
positive that the issue in-
volves a large portion of
English arrogance imported
from the international scene.
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' intoforeign
airports -where landing rights
were obtained in non-English
ureas. •It was just an ex-
tension of this defacto
situation, when English was
- named as the language to be
used. between foreigners,
during landing procedures.
The wrath and anger against
the unjust use of English has
been mitigated by the ; fact,
that to elevate French or
some other national language
to take the place already held
by 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.
Anglophones dispart.ge
other languages because of --
the
the position English has
assumed as a consequence of
western, technology. We
should remember, however,
that only ten percent of the
World population' speak
English
The issue of` air safety, as
-presented by CALPA, is
dishonest. Traditionally,
around the world, natianais
speak in their own native
tongues for landing
procedures. A Pole speaks in
Polish when landing in
Warsaw, and a German, in
German,' when landing in
'Berlin - certainly not in.
English.. To extend the right
to French C--anadians to speak
in French when landing in
Quebec, is simply . to extend
the right, recognized in-
ternational.ly, to speak one's
own official language when
landing on 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 'tilted for. in-
ternational us at airports
and creates h• arils. It is not ,.
phonetic and is difficult to
learn. The wi rld, 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
wpuld have to be introduced
simultaneously all over •the '
world - perhaps by satellite
but especially in airports, on
Wines, and in all in-,
terhational • - con-
rnunications."

was referring to, .however,

little different: The
newspaper didn't interest her
much. In truth, it still doesn't.
But she had books- nursery
rhymes and fairy tales and
monthly publications like
Children's Digest which held
her spellbound for hours. She
enjoyed -when someone read
to her, but she,aiso enjoyed

remedial reading for students
with learning disabilities. Itis
here, according to Mrs.
Vanden Broeck, that the real
problems surface. She
questioned whether 'students
were being referred to
remedial reading classes

serious , learning disability
than perhaps not having had

assistance: in the regular
classroom situations She
suggested that remedial .

the learning process was in

In short,• the school plays
only part of the role when
reading is learned. The home
is such an important factor in
so many :ways that some
teachers weren't doing their
job!
In fact, Mrs, Vanden
Broeck asked, ."Is . it not.
reasogable for us to expect a
high level efficiency in the
regular, classroom • and
specialized help for those who
need it?" - r!'
"Are you paying teachers
simply on the basis ,of their
own education or on the basis
of their ability to teach?" la"
Mrs. Vanden Broeek asked
the board.
Those are loaded questions, .
questions' which must give
teachers: all over Huron

Theyare questions which in
all likelihood, .many teachers
have asked themselves over fl

Dean Struble, an organic
chemist, at the Lethbridge.
Station:, started work on
synthetic sex attractants in
1969. Since then, more than
100'. chemicals have been
synthesized; each, requiring
five to eight consecutive
reactions and purification.
Each ;chemical, on its own
. -and about 300 combinations of
chemicals, two at a time;
were. field-tested - in traps.
About 70 species of moths,
were attracted to some
'degree. Edward Swailes and
Charles Lilly, entomologists
at the Research Station, were
- involved with the fieldtesting
of the chemicals. •
More field testing resulted
in the development of precise
ratios and combinations of
various chemicals that are
good attractants for 'five
species of moth. The species -
are mainly of. the cutworm
family which - can • ' cause
great damage'to a :cultural
crops. ,
"The work has caused
particular' problems in
chemistry," Dr. Struble says.
"Male' moths can detect very
small amounts -- only a few
molecules -- of the chemicals.
The quantity they respond to
'it so minute that' it is difficult
to detect.even with our best
instruments:"
Work is continuing at the
station to develop more sex
-attractants to predict
populations of other
destructive insects.
It means farmers may be
able to use fewer c,hemicals in
the ' future: They have
automatically sprayed 'for
certain cutworm species, not
risking the financial loss of an
infestation,. '
Future research, using
traps, baited with the at-
tractant, will permit , moth
populations' to be . predieted
accurately. From this, dill
probability of subsequentt
larval infestations will . be\
estimated.
