U.Of ORS.UBIURT
In The-
Day's lews
By FRANK JENKINS
What's happening in Canada:
What caused it to happen?
This is about il:
Early in January, American
General Nnrstad, retired com'
mandcr of NATO forces in Eur
ope, paid a visit to Ottawa, Can
ada's capital, on his way home to
the U.S. While there he told a
news conference that Canada
wouldn't fulfill its commitments
to NATO unless it accepted nu
clear weapons for its air and
ground forces in Europe.
The Canadian parliament as
sembled on January 25. and Les
ter Pearson (leader of the out-of-power
opposition party i said in a
foreign policy speech that Cana
da SHOULD ACCEPT U.S. nu
clear weapons for its forces in
Europe. A few days later he nee
dled Conservative Premier Diet
enbaker for not having done so.
Diefenbaker replied, but h i s
reply was vague. He didn't say
definitely whether Canada had
accepted or rejected a nuclear
role for Canadian forces.
Then
On January 30
The U.S. jumped into Canada's
nuclear row. Our slate depart-
ment took issue with many points
made by Premier Diefenbaker in
his answer to Pearson.
Washington told Ottawa it was
HIGH TIME Canada accepted
U.S. nuclear arms.
That did it.
The following day. Diefenbaker
said the Washington statement
CONSTITUTES AN UNWAR
RANTED INTRUSION into Cana
dian affairs. A few days later,
he told the reporters that Canada
has demonstrated that it "is not
in the New Frontier of the United
Stales."
What in countries using the par
liamentary system is called a votei
of NO CONFIDENCE was intro-j
duccd in the Canadian House of
Commons. Diefenbaker lost by a
vote of 11! FOR him to 142
AGAINST him.
Under the parliamentary sys
tem, that means that the parlia
ment must be dissolved and an
election held to choose a NEW
parliament. The new election must
be held within 60 days of the no
confidence vote, which will he
about April A.
In the Canadian campaign thai
will intervene between now and
then, the big issue will be pro
Americanism vs. anti-Americanism.
That is unfortunate. But it
Is at least understandable.
Back in our early days as an
independent nation, "twisting the
lion's tail" meaning whooping it
up against England was a pop
ular campaign issue. In the Ca
nadian election that is coming up.
Premier Diefenbaker will substi
tute pulling the eagle's tail feath
ers for twisting the lion's tail.
It is unfortunate, but that is
about the way it will be.
Diefenbaker will have an argu
ment that will have considerable
weight.
In Oregon and especially down
here in Southern Oregon we have
great respect for our big neighbor
California. We LIKE our neigh
bors. The California market is a
big asset, and we appreciate it.
But
Suppose California undertook to
tell us what we ought to do and
what we ought NOT to do. Suppose
it got into an election. You know
what we would do. We would spit
in Big California's eye. The temp
tation in Canada w ill be to spit in
L'nclc Sam's eye.
We'll see what we'll see.
Cuba Trade

WASHINGTON 'UPD - The
