GREAT' CENSUS JUMPFORSEEN IN 40 YEARS

By MYRA GREENSpeaking to the U.N. Tuesday noon on "Overpopula-

tion?" Dr. J. L. Robinson of the geography department saidif present trends continued, the population in .40 yearswould be three billion.

He said increase in population was a result of lowere ddeath rates, caused by better medical care, rather than high-er birth rates .

between simple migration and conquest by farce .. He point-ed out that peaceful migration seemed doubtful becaus eof political barriers,'and also the physical problem of movingsuch large masses .

On the other hand he felt large numbers did not mea nmilitary power. He also said statistics showed war does no t

the councillors came to him afte r

the meeting and said they had ab-

ing the Kickapoos motion had been

sufficient expression of confidence .

The councillors said Wednesdaythey had no statement to make tolustily their position .

The special council meeting was

called at noon Tuesday when Ub y

by the Kickapooa Motion ,

ation which had prompted th e

After the four councillors ale.

Treasurer Phil Anderson aske d

that The Ubyssey accept a major-

A special meeting of the Editor .ial Board Tuesday night decided t ocomply with the request after hear-ing from Mr. Lyon and Mr. An-

Fun, Games, And NonsenseProducing 'a student newspaper is prob-

ably one of the most entertaining tasks in th e

world -- but it is probably one of the mos t

thankless and heart-breaking, too.

A volunteer organization necessarilyleaves much to be desired from the point ofview of efficiency . Inevitably it makes mis-tgkes and, because those mistakes are madein print, are available for public scrutiny andon file for ever, dissatisfaction is bound to berampant .

There are more than 70 student groupson this campus—and each is convinced thatits activities are far more important than th ecombined endeavors of the other 69.

,Futhermore, the failure'of any one of theseactivities can always be conveniently blamedOn lack of publicity. A campus newspaper i sa first class scape-goat and its weary editorscan usually be relied upon to nod their head sin what can, with a little stretch of the ima-gination, be taken as agreement .

This, usually, is the end of it .

But a club called the Kickapoos which,we understand, is devoted to making whoope eon behalf of the athletic directorate, decide dlast week that it would be far more interestingto take their beef to Student Council and ,l)y way of 'a new sort of game, contrived tobill The Ubyssey for their losses .

They maintained (despite the fact tha tthey were given three columns of 36 poin ttype on the third page) that lack of Ubysse ypublicity had ruined them.

An unthinking council agreed and or-dered The Ubyssey to pay $26.

Now $26 is a trivial amount and, of it -self, nothing to get hot under the collarabout .

But it should have been quite obviousto council that every other group on the cam -pus would seize on the first available op-portunity to follow suit and that Ubysse yeditors would henceforth spend most of thei rtime in the council arguing futilely against aseries of insane demands .

It should also have been obvious to coun-cillors that their vote implied that they feltthat Ubyssey editors were not competent t oittdge whether or not a story should appear4n page three or page one .

If that was their view, they should hav edismissed the editors and appointed mor ecompetent individuals .

The Ubyssey therefore suspended publi-

Few university actions have appearedat once so dangerous and so petty as that o fthe University of Montreal student counci lin dismissing the editor of their studen tnewspaper for his anti-royalist writings .

Just how anti-royalist the students in-volved were, we don't know . But the Can-adian Press story which appeared last Fri -day in Vancouver newspapers cited the mos tflagrant attack as a cartoon depicting th ePrincess dragging Prince Philip across the 'U of M campus toward a marionette stu-dent who was shown bowing like a clock -work dummy .

We can gather from that that the stu-dent who drew the cartoon felt that th epoor old prince was henpecked, that th eprincess was domineering and that the Uof M student body was either overawed b ythe royal visit or crowed into submission b yuniversity threats .

All of which might be true . But evensupposing it isn't, why shouldn't a studen tpaper be free to lambast royalty ?

We happen to believe that somethin gvery real and very important would be lostif British royalty disappeared tomorrow .

But royalty is costly, it smacks of privi -

cation at once ,

On Tuesday, the Editorial Board agreed,to resume publication if council reversed theorder requiring us to pay $26 to the Kicka-pees and if council passed a unanimdus mo-tion of confidence in our news policy.

Council immediately reversed the 'orde rend a motion of confidence in Ubyssey newspolicy passed by a vote of 6 to 0—with, how-ever, four members abstaining .

The four gutless wonders who refusedto commit themselves—Mr. Sperling, Mr.Neen, Mr. Lintott, and Miss MacArthur havenot had an enviable record on student coup -

AMS President Vaughn Lyon showe dthat he was good and fed up with them Tues-day afternoon .

In fact, he went so far as to indicatethat he would be happy to receive theirresignations .

These same four were all behind theabortive plot in the early part of the term toremove Mr. Lyon from office . They fell ra-ther flat on their faces but they have con-tinued undaunted to disuupt as much studen tactivity as possible,

,

Mr. Neen's work with the Undergraduat eSocieties Committee has not been distinguish-ed. He seized the spotlight for a brief perio dduring the constitutional revision debate —but he played only a minor role in themonths of spade work which went into th eplans .

He will probably go down in history asthe man who blew his top over the perennia lquestion of council blazers .

Mr. Lintott has made a minor shamble sout of his work as co-ordinator . The numbe rof double bookings, the endless confusionover activities, the whole haphazard trend o fstudent meetings speak ill of his effort .

Mr. Sperling, as even members of hi sathletic directorate will admit, has spent fa rmore time raising hob with everybody els ethan organizing athletics .

Miss MacArthur's actions cannot betaken seriously . Her point of view vacillatesfrom hour to hour and it would be folly toascribe any meaning to it .

All four milght, therefore, be well ad-vised to buckle down to work and cut th ehorse-play .

Ubyssey staffers are tired of it and wethink most other students are equally fed up .

lege and anything hut democracy, it re -minds French Canadians of what they fee lhave been acts of discrimination against themby the English speaking half of Canada .

If U. of M students want to be anti-royalist, that's their business .

If they go over the deep-end and lose sightof good taste then someone should give the ma lesson in good taste and ask them toapologise .

Student freedom is as vital as any o fthe other freedoms our society is supposed ,to maintain .

If a Soviet student newspaper wereclosed down because its editors poked fu nat Uncle Joe we would cite the instance a sa prime example of slave conditions in theUSSR. Even if the action came from a Rus-sian student council we would still labe lit orders from above .

Yet we are prepared to sit back an dlet a Canadian editor go down the drai nwithout a word of protest because we seemto think that no one is likely to carry thething to its logical conclusion .

If U of M editors can be fired for blast-ing royalty then UBC editors can be firedfor hlasling Boss Johnson .

Think it over .

CHUCK SEES RED MENACE IN UBYSSE YI thinks it is my duty as a citizen of one of th e

finest trees on the campus to warn you about th eCommunist menace which is rearing its ugly headin this pallier .

On page one of Tuesday's Ubyssey, there I sa story e.haut startler, Sheila Kearns winning a naward with an American magazine . Right in theheadline she's referred to as Our Sheila ." And onthe same page there is a story by Dot Auerbach —she's called "Our Dot" in the head .

M the headline writer had room he would havewrote "Comrade Sheila" and "Comrade Dot! ""Our" is merely a cover for the comrade handle .That ' s communism !

And on the editorial page is a piece by JoeSchlesinger suggesting Mamooks set the , artisticstandard of posters displayed on campus . Regi-mented ant! Another sign of Communism .

KINGSTON — (CUP) — PrimeMinister St . Laurent said here inan address recently that the go oeminent is working out a compre-hensive plan of federal aid to al lCanadian universities in accord-ance with recommendations of theMassey Commission .

The only return that the gov-ernment expects Is the effectiv emaintenance of the civilized andcivilizing influence of the Canadi-an universities—.and, of course, th esufficient supply of well-educatedcitizens to meet the considerabledemand of the Federal Governmen tfor competent public servants .

St . Laurent said the step is be-ing taken because the Federal Gov-ernment is the only body whic hcan give consistent non-discrimina-tory support to the universities .

The recital, which forms par t

of an already extensive univer-sity concert season, will be give n

by Joyce Newman, soprano, mi d

John Brockington, pianist.

No admission will be chargedand the public is invited ,

During the twelve months ending July 30, Canada's

regular Armed Forces — Navy, Army and Air Force —

increased from 46,886 to 81,727, or about 75 percent .

The requirement for officers has correspondingl y,

increased . This requirement is met in three ways :

1 The Canadian Services Colleges at RMC, Kingsto n

and Royal Roads, B .C.

,

2 Short Service or permanent commissions for me n

directly from civilian life or from the ranks who

have the necessary physical qualifications and

junior matriculation or equivalent ;

The university training plans.

In the university there is the University Naval Trainin g

Division (UNTD) for the Royal Canadian Navy, the

Canadian Officers Training Corps (COTC) for the Army ,

and the Reserve University Flights (RUF) for the RCAF .

Last year, in twenty-seven Canadian universities an d

colleges a total of 3,980 . undergraduates were members o f

these units. This year, to match the expansion in the Armed

Forces, still more university men are needed to take these

courses and qualify as regular or reserve officers .

All undergraduates taking advantage of these, office s

training facilities receive pay for time spent in training,

including full time employment with the pay of a Secon d

Lieutenant for three or four months each summer . Under.

graduates in their final year who are accepted for the

regular forces can be commissioned with full pay and

allowances of their rank and remain at the university to

complete their year. On obtaining their degrees, they wil l

continue in the service without interruption . The cost of

tuition . and books for the final year will be paid by,

the service .

Today the threat of aggression has led Canada and the

other free nations to build up the strength necessary t o

prevent aggression and preserve peace . Modern defence

activities, new weapons, require special qualities of leader .

ship and the kind of knowledge and skills which university,

men can provide .

You, as an undergraduate, can play your part in

national defence while at the university by adding to your

other qualifications the knowledge and experience needed .

in an officer. You can play your part in preserving free-

dom by preparing yourself to defend your country, should

the need arise.
