persuade the US France Portugal Spain Italy Britain Denmark and Norway to agree to phasing out their fishing rights within the 12-mile limit but without much success That's why Eddie Robichaud doesn't dare order his patrol beats to chase the foreigners out of there And if some of our hotheaded fishing skippers start shooting them up-well there'll be some pretty sna-ky notes back from the iai d'Orsay and the foreign office in Madrid and other places And maybe a French frigate to show the Tricolor in what to the French are waters Accordng to fr-m scene of hostilities he Fren-hmen and are taking a pretty prejudiced view of where the three mile limit to say nclhj-g of the 12-mile limit Like just inside of wh-re the fish are The skipper of the Caroline" reported that two French ships and lugged over his trawls within the three-mile limit and destroyed them That cost him maybe a couple of thousand dollars Another incident involved the Penny" She bad her trawls carried away by' a Frenchman that cut across her stem In broad daylight either not looking or just bent on teaching these Canadians a lesson for their insolent 12-mile limit doing everything we can to prevent foreigh boats' from interfering with Canadian says Hen Eddie But the Newfoundlanders are yelling for the RCAF and the navy and the diplomatic negotiations are too delicate tor Ottawa to get that tough OTTAWA If Hon Eddie Robichaud isn't careful he's going to have a war on our hands For the last couple of months a lot of Irate Newfoundland fishermen hava been popping off about the way French and Spanish boats have been fishing inside Canadian waters and worse still running over and destroying the gear of Canadian boats one exception all the popping hes been verbal to the Fisheries Department asking where the blank are the fisheries patrol boats and why the blank aren't they on the job protecting our fishing preserves and our Canadian fishermen The exception was a Newfie skipper who let fly blast with his 12-gauge shotgun at the bridge of a Spaniard who overran his trawls Well sir you should have seen that Spaniard cut and run with his upper works all peppered with good Newfoundland lead Fisheries Mini ster himself an old fishing skipper before he got into the even fishier game of tells me he's sent a couple of his petrol boats down off the south coast to investigate More likely if truth be known their main job is to pour some oil on those waters so the Newfie skippers won't tart reaching for their shotguns every time a Frenchman or a Spaniard saila within length If we get a shooting war going there the Ottawa gov-ernment's going to be mighty embarrassed Last year it extended the three-mile limit to 12 miles without any other country's by-your-leave thus taking in fishing grounds where a number of foreign countries have treaty or assessed strictly on the basis of subsequent developments although the income-tax-cut experience of the United States provides evidence not yet conclusive that it may be considerable Other aspects of the budget are even harder for the layman to assess Particularly so is the establishment of a Canadian Development Corporation designed to encourage the development of industrial opportunities in Canada by Canadians It seems paradoxical that an organization with this objective should begin by taking over a Crown corporation which in effect has been paying dividends to Canadian taxpayers Whether the transfer of these dividends from taxpayers in general to small shareholders will benefit Canada (if under the new circumstances these dividends continue) and whether inclusion of Polymer will help enable the new organization to fulfil its projected function most will want to wait and see The revived program to aid Canadian periodicals however has the appearance of not much more than shadow-boxing It takes definite action against the vague shadow of a future threat and no effective action whatever against a very real situation about which Canadian publications have been complaining for years The definite action is against the possibility of future American takeover of control of Canadian newspapers which is conceded to constitute no clear and present danger The lack of action is against the so-called Canadian editions of Time and Digest which place Canadian periodicals under a competitive disadvantage in production costs To sum up the budget is unlikely to make anybody wildly happy That it has made so many opposition spokesmen so plainly and definitely unhappy may be taken however as a fair indication that a considerable number of Canadian voters are likely to find it at least a relief and a pleasant change Whether you regard it as a or a or an of or a "monumental depends entirely on where you sit The first description of the federal budget brought down Monday evening is Finance Minister The others are those of spokesmen for the assorted opposition parties Except for the specific adiective applied by Mr Gordon all were predictable None of them is likely to represent the attitude of the man in the street and all of them are likely to be taken by the latter with a grain of salt In fact about the only fairly dispassionate official reaction was that of Social Credit leader Robert Thompson who said the budget was an improvement but regretted its deficit aspect The view of Mr Average Taxpayer if there is such an animal has not been given authoritative voice nor is it likely that there is any substantial consensus on this score If the imaginary average taxpayer were able to speak with a single voice and if he were given to applying labels in the political fashion the probability as we see it is that he would describe it as a budget In this day and age tax cuts however modest their proportions are rare things for which to be thankful For the average taxpayer the actual amount involved in this one is not enough to make him or break him or set him up in a brick store But a cut a thing to which to the income taxpayer would like to become better accustomed having had precious little opportunity to do so for a good many years If in its application to the individual it seem sufficient to bring about the freer spending and consequent boost to the national economy -envisioned by Mr Gordon psychologically it may have a good deal of that effect The degree of that effect remains to be and the Maritimes and St Lawrence River ports during winter and to Montreal and the Great Lakes during summer The 7000 ton vessel is scheduled to go into service in July (CP Photo from

show business on a grand scale and the nobles confess they are forced into it in order to keep themselves in the manner to which their ancestors were accustomed His Grace the Duke of Bedford is a close runner-up to Montague in the stately-homes stakes and now he is keeping his attendance figures a secret But undoubtedly the rambling Woburn Abbey in Bedfordshire has its quota of visitors from all over the world and the duke manages to keep things fairly lively even in the winter months by turning his grounds into vast shows areas for exhibiting new industrial equipment and entertaining (at an economic price per head) visiting world press men to lunch to venison which is regarded in Britain as a Royal dish dukes and noble lords are getting ready for a booming summer by showing off their stately homes to ever-growing hordes of money spending visitors the London Letter of the British organization Aims of Industry reports While the UK stately home business has- become something of a national joke their Graces and Hons are offering a romp which you cannot get anywhere else in the world You can admire a French chateau but it is coldly historical or you can jtpddle around a German schloss to be anaesthetized by art and architecture But the do-it-yourself owners of the stately homes of England have reached a high pitch of business efficiency and where else in the world could you find a blue blooded earl eager to sell you a pound of peas from a barrow at the gates of his ancestral home or to whip the kids up an ice cream cone? Foremost among the stately home money spinners is Edward John Barrington Douglas-Scott-Montague or Lord Montague of Beaulieu who never fails to get himself in the news He lives on an estate in the New Forest in Hampshire and shares his home and grounds with The Sault 50 Years Ago Mayor McPhail reported to the council last night that he had received a telegram from Mayor Waugh of Winnipeg ask ing his opinion regarding a conference of mayors at Ottawa to urge on the government the necessity of carrying on' the work to relieve unemployment The mayor said he would be pleased to cooperate and had asked for further details of the plan The mayor also referred to the particular difficulties that faced the Sault iiPthe matter of floating labor He said he had taken the matter up with A Boyce MP who had already agreed to do all he could to urge on the government the need of going ahead with the work planned for hart By JOSEPH ALSOF WASHINGTON The Honolulu meeting attended by Secretary of Defence Robert McNamara was held to lay out detailed plans for the next phase of the bitter struggle in Viet Nam More reinforcements in the South raids on the North hitting closer home these were the main topics beyond doubt This seems a good juncture therefore to take a sort of inventory of the present stage of the war In view of the endless silly public talk about negotiations this is probably the best place to begin Serious negotiations in brief are not now an immediate prospect President Johnson and his policy-makers never did and do not now expect the North Vietnamese to be willing to negotiate on acceptable terms until considerably later stage The President's Baltimore speech was not designed to start negotiations it was designed rather to show that the President was ready to talk about peace if anyone else wanted to do so With that confused point out of the way the next thing to note is the remarkable degree to which events have thus far confirmed the forecasts of the team of analysts and planners On Feb IS just before the final turning point in the Vietnamese policy this reporter pub- lished a piece based on a very careful canvass It gave the odds for or against a series of theoretically possible Soviet Chinese and North Vietnamese responses to bombing raids on the North Direct Soviet action of any sort was-marked as highly improbable The odds' against the Chinese Communists moving large ground forces were also given as between two and four to one Neither of these dangers has materialized Both are less serious dangers now than In mid-February Despite the Chinese talk about for Instance the Chinese are still omitting to mike any of the needed easily visible preparations for substantial troop movements In same mid-February report however it was predicted that the Soviets would "ship additional to North Viet Nam and the odds were said to Chinese air support for the North Vietnamese Soviet SA-2 missiles are duly on the way to Hanoi Chinese fighters from Hainan Island have also attacked US planes over the Tonkin Gulf but this was an Isolated episode The question of future Chinese air actios is still open Over-all a vote of thanks is owned to the persons on whose judgment the quoted odds were based If their judgment Is as accurate now as it was in February moreover the somewhat more belligerent tone of recent Soviet end Chinese statements does not imply any real change in the pattern The North Vietnamese have received no effective outside help to date and beyond the SA-2s they cannot solidly count on really effective outside help in the future The real test has not as yet taken place however In the first place the American bombing of North Vietnamese targets is only beginning to hit closer home A really informative response cannot be expected until a real major action such as progressive destruction of the port facilities of Hal Phong In the second and more important place Gen Vo Nguyen Giep hes not yet played the trump cards with which he probably expects to take a great many tricks From large parts of South Viet Nam the regular battalions of the Viet Cong army have now been withdrawn leaving only much weaker local guerrillas behind The regulars obviously are being concentrated for a big assault somewhere The Intelligence on the spot suggests an attack on the American air and marina base at Da Nang But the intelligence may well be planted by Gen Giap He may be hoping to pin down the most important available troop reserves in Da Nang by a spoiling action while launching his major attack on units of the South Vietnamese Army in some such province as Quang Ngal or on the high plateau At any rate the odds favor big show somewhere after the rainy season begins It is pretty clear that Gen Giap and his copolicy makers in Hanoi think the big show may have the same effects as Dien Blen Fhu They will be wrong however if there are sufficient reserves endowed with sufficient mobility when the big show starts This one may be sure was the central point discussed at Honolulu If there Is a big show and if it is a failure the moment of final test will than be at band The hope of another Dien Blen Phu will then have died The time for fSct-fadng to Hanoi will then have arrived The North Vietnamese must then think about much more desperate actions such as open invasion of the South Or they must then begin to think about negotiating The odds favor negotiations when that time comes but odds have been wrong before this Copyright (c) 198S The Washington Post Co Really Caught On Jerry Left Mark
