As might have been anticipated, Ottawa‘s hesitancy to act on the recomâ€" mendation of the report of Mr. Justice Norris â€" either in establishing a govâ€" ernment trusteeship over the five mariâ€" time unions operating in Canada, or in deciding if criminal charges should be laid against Canadian SIU leaders on the basis of the testimony concerning violence and intimidation given to the Norris inquiry â€" has simply spawned more trouble. Rifle shots have been fired into the home of a Toledo, Ohio, grain storage operator who dared to load Canadian ships in defiance of a boycott ordered by American SIU leaâ€" ders. Now there has been the dynamitâ€" ing of the Canadian grainâ€"carrier Howâ€" ard L. Shaw, tied up and waiting cargo at Chicago for four months despite an antiâ€"picketing court injunction. Washington, aithough the Adminâ€" Istration has put on a show of wishing to end Great Lakes violence, seems to be either unwilling or unable to enâ€" force the law. The FBI was told to inâ€" vestigate the Chicago shipâ€"bombing, Averell Harriman was named President Kennedy‘s official troubleshooter in the waterfront war, Secretary of State Dean Rusk conferred with the Canadâ€" ian Ambassador, and Secretary of Labâ€" or Willard Wirtz was despatched to Ottawa.

The suggestion is all the more paradoxical in view of the fact that this is the same Mr. Hall who has heaped invective on Mr. Justice Norris and the Canadian government and who has also attacked the Kennedy Administration‘s efforts to quell the U.S. waterfront was as "shabby and disgraceful for a proâ€"labâ€" or administration." In that final phrase the SIU leadâ€" er has put a public finger on the real reason why the SIU abcess has persistâ€" ed so long on both sides of the border â€"governments that are afraid not to be labelied proâ€"labor. by Mr. Wirtz was less than useful. Alâ€" though virtually all segments of organâ€" ized labor in Canada except the SIU have agreed to establishment of a govâ€" ernment trusteeship, Mr. Wirtz indicatâ€" ed that he had told the Canadian govâ€" ernment of Washington‘s preference for a private trusteeship. "I am a great believer," he told the press, "that in the free labor movement there are the elemnts for dealing with a situation of this kind." Fortunately, our Federal parliaâ€" ment is not in session now, and most of the provincial governments are at rest. During the dog days, the economy will begin to perk up a bit. There will be less uncertainty. It will be possible to guess at what the price of a house, a drink, or a pack of smokes will be tomoâ€" row. And the stock market will move sensibly for a while, based on earnings and prospects. Later, however, when the politicians get busy, no one will have the slightest notion what will hapâ€" pen next â€" â€" except that something will happen that will upset things. Unless we have the good fortune to get a proâ€" crastinating Prime Minister and a few solid, lazy Members of Parliament. I used to plump for Senate reform.

That does not eliminate the essenâ€" tial problem since this is a oneâ€"shot wonder. It does give the country more time to get itself in better proâ€" ductive and economic shape. This has been taken in some quarters as roughly indicating another allâ€"out push for foreign capital, a somewhat altered objective to that of Finance Minâ€" ister Walter Gordon who has sought to retain Canadian ownership in industry and. resources and to get, inâ€" stead, foreign capital through bonds rather than stocks. What Drury really was saying was this: More foreign head offices should spend their funds on reâ€" search and original idea development in Canadian subâ€" sidiaries. This has been a Canadian objective for years and actually can lead, if applied, to more jobs in Canâ€" ada. Presenting "We naturally expect and will encourage compâ€" "1, anies to undertake programs of their own to expand their capabilities and opportunities for soundly based growth. In the case of companies which are British or United States subsidiaries this means that we expect your parent companies to provide overall manageâ€" ment support and encouragement for such programs and to assist by ensuring that adequate funds are aâ€" vailable." Industry Minister C.M. Drurry told the Air Industâ€" ries Association at Purray Bay: The end is not yet. More will be heard in and outside the autumn resumption of Parliament about the Canadian objective of reducing the big trade defâ€" icit with the United States. Wipe out the automotive imbalance and Canada has virtually erased its remaining payments red ink. This does not say the country does not still require forâ€" eign capital because it does. It still needs development. When the Canadian and American ministers met, the United States group outlined its own balance of payments difficulties to Canada‘s group. This was greeâ€" ted in what turned out to be a somewhat humorous way by Canadian Trade Minister Michell Sharp, who took the American arguments and inserted the word Canada each time the word United States appeared. The rebuttal made its mark upon the Americans. But Canada‘s practical push for more Canadian automotive parts, and potentially more U.S. outlets for production, still drew a reluctant U.S. reaction. U.S. tax on foreign securities to he)'p control the outâ€" flow of American money. Canada wants an exemption. Since Canada has run a total world deficit in trade, and not a surplus, it pays the bill by imported money. Much of this capital comes from the United States in investment funds. It helps Canâ€" adians meet what is called their balance of payments problem. â€" The Americans now have their own balance of payment problem, though proportionately it is by no means as xr.eat._ Preaiderg;_ Kenn_ed_y has proposed a The Canadian ministers went as friends to meet their American counterparts. They still had their firm message to deliver, that the greatest portion of Canâ€" ada‘s trading deficit lay with the United States. Canâ€" ada imports $700,000,000 in goods and services more from the United States than the United States imports from Canada. Canada imports about $500,000,000 in automotive parts from the United States. Canada wants to work toward correcting this. That was the brightest quip to emerge from this important gathering in Washington. But in its way it was a qualification to what Canada‘s external affairs minister, Paul Martin, said at the start, that: "We are friends and we talked as friends." icial was quoted as saying it was more like something coming from Mexico than Cansda. One of the Canadians at this joint Canadianâ€"Amâ€" erican meeting said afterward :; "If we were a member of the Organization of American States like the United States, we wouldn‘t talk about Mexico like that." by Robart Moon To the Canadian ministerial delegation‘s propasâ€" al to increase Canada‘s automotive parts produc.ion utl exports to the United States, a high American offâ€" Th Offtawa Szeine 64
