Tho wotion was carried. Trensuror Wnyno Tochorii in orctor to stop the lag in funds to thJ ~,H.S. from functions hold by Clubs or SocietiGs, expressed a strong plDQ thGt the position of the Trcqsurcr bo reinforced, He outlined a �[· p,"llicy rn which the .A.M.S. would freeze the accounts of any functions that were late coming in, I-t was .suggested by Mr. Jack Edwards (Science) that since sometimes it is individuals and not Clubs who ·1vere at fault, this ruling seemed a bj_t harsh. It was agreed that a statement of explanation could be drawn up j_f the funds were not forwarded. A. motion was carried that all clubs and societies in the University respect a one week deadline ofter functions to hand in receipts or give a valid reason in writing why said r~ceipts cannot be handed in; and the validity of thP.se reasons be lef't to the discretion of t;he Ti.~easurer. It was amend•ed by Mr. Barry Smith (Science). to rea~ that all clubs and societies be notified of this decision. In his next remarks. the Treasurer, in suggesting an audit of the Treas~ry books for tho e~d of his term, stated that it would be economically unf0asible and that he couJd proc.uce certified statements of the validity of his accounts. He offerec. these accounts to anyone who would personally wish to audit them, even though they seemed to be on an undisc iplinecl system. He speculated that the cost of an audit would be over ~100 and again strossed the unneces s ary expense in this move. A. motion which read, 11 the question of auditing and changing of bookkeeping of the A.M.S. Treasury Dept. be put into the hands of the Finance Cammi ttee 11 , was carrie d, 'I'he Finance Committee is made up of members of the A.M.S. Council and chaired by the Treasurer. President Hess then presented a question as to how the delegates (3) to the ORCUS (Ontario Regional Canadian Union of Students) conference be chosen. It was decided that this decision be left to the Executive. The conference will be held in 'roronto, on .January 20th to 30th. Mr. Barry Smith~ President of the 1/iinter Carnival Cammi ttee, outlined how the Con1.111ittee was 193 in debt and would <1lso need another ~100 for Carnival activities. He suggested repayment from the proceeds of the Formal dance. The condition of the roads on Campus was discussed and President Hess and Mr, Smith said they were doing everything in their power to improve the condition of the roads. It was moved and carried that if the Winter Carnival Committee exceeds the budget by a sum great-• er than can be covered by profits from the Formal dance, that it will be covered by the l.M.S. A discussion on the hiring of bands for the Winter Carnival functions Treasurer Tocheri mentioned he knew several bands which would play for the full week for a special or package rate. Chief Justice Dutchuk sugeested that this could lead to trouble with the Muscian 1 s Union. Mr. w. Aitken (Bus. Adm.) outlined that each club function might not like the same ban -:l and moved that the hiring of bands be left up co the individual organizations holding dances during Winter Carnival. This was carried, with the final remark by Treasurer Tocheri that even record dances could lead to trouble with the Muscian 1 s Union. was disputed, 1 The actions of the A. M. S. regarding the supposed 11 Get Acquainted 11 dance with Northwestern University of Minneapolis was criticized from the floor. After the dance had been planned, Mr. D. Gardiner, A.M.S. Business Manager, phoned the Program Consultant of the Fort William Ski Club to inform him of the dance. He found that arrangements for enter-tainment had already been made, nnd the Program Consultant from the Ski Club urged the University to stop publicity on the dance. Mr. J". Edwards (Science) suggested that in future more direct ties be made with the Chambers of Commerce 01, both cities nnd moved that the LM.S. should write Northwestern for more definite arrangements on future trips, as well as, an apology for hav~ng sponsored a social event without consulting the guests, Dr. Merrill, representing W.U.S,C. (World University Service Conference), outlined a progrRm for a conference on Turkey in Waterloo. Dr. Merrill requested a loan to cover expenses for 2 delegates to this conference~ including Miss Rosanne Candido, chosen as one of 39 delegates from across Canada to travel to Turk9V for W.U.S.C. He also mentioned that this loan would be repaid from funds taken in from the W.U.S.Ccmovies and other function •• A motjon was carried that the A.M.S. should advan~s �5 ~--·w. U.S .C. ~100 per delegate, with no more than 2 delegates, for a .con-- .. ference on Turkey in Waterloo. Mr. W. Roman Petryshyn, (Arts) next read a letter from Mr. Morley Mitchell, Editor of the Literary Review. In the letter, Mr. Mitchell outlined his dismay at the lack of material for this project and because of this disinterest, had to return the grant from the 1\.M.S. He suggested that the funds not spent be forwarded to the accounts of the Mediwn. Treasurer Tocheri said that the reason that the newspaper had trouble was the fact that the interest had waned in the staff and referred to the :&st unpublished issue as garbage. Mr. Petryshyn sugeested that the money be reverted to the Account of next year 1 s Review. Mr. T. Kelly, (Arts Society) suggested that a monetary prize should be set up next year~ so that this would give students a greater impetus to submit material for the Review. Chief Justice Dutchak suggested a literary supplement to the newspaper. Mr. F. Penner (Science) suggested the formation of a Literary Club. It was moved that the full !1!;500 allotted to the Literary Review revert to the A.H.S. and th~t recommendations be made to next year's Council to set aside the money for the Literary Review. A second point by Mr. Petryshyn, concerning night classes, and the reason why students must take them, was tabled for further discussion. A motion was carried that the Finance Committee look into the matter of honoraria and make concrete recommendations at next meetings which will be held before the close of nominations for the next year's Executive of the A..M.S. 11 Honoraria 11 is the reimbursement for time spent by the Executive in the form of special favours, usually monetary. After descriptions of conduct at past dnnce, it was moved that a special Police Force, composed of A.M.S. members should bring offenders during Winter Carnival or later, before the Judicial Committee for trial. A.ny member of the fl. .M.S. was urged to write a formal note of complaint if they noticed any misdemeaners. The meeting wearily ended at 11:15 p.m. Jean Jordan and Jack Edwards are selling tickets to the Winter Carnival Formal. The price is ~3.00, with dancing starting at 10;00 p.m. in the New Library. See you there. Powder Puff Panthers Looking for Scalps. The girls of Nemissa are learning the finer arts of footbo.11 i.n preparation for the big game with the boy 1 s university basketball team. The game will take place Thursday, J3nuary 27th between the New Library and the Cafeteria, at 2:00 p.m. The Panthersj in training camp since last Wednesday, nre odds on favorites to take the boys for two touchdowns. As a handicap, the boys hnve nf;reed to ho.ve their feet hobbled one foot apart and tie their left hands behind their backs. The Panther's head conch, Morely Mitchell, says he is satisfied with the teams progress in prnctice particularly that of the ace quarterback "Bart Starr'' Skoropad.

The cause of this epoc-~aking development in international affairs is to be found prj_marily in Asia. The Soviet Union's gradual shift from a revolutionary to a revisionist stance is directly related to the Sino-Soviet n ideological 11 schism. The Moscow-Peigping split, however is caused not by the fleeting b ubble 0f a difference of opinion but rather on empirical phenonona that wi2.l be a~ound for quite a w~1ile. Firstly J the split is occ2..s:i.oned by- the natural competition for prestige and influ2~c\J among ciny two grsat powers, In this case it is for the leadership of the world revolutionary movement. There is also the natural diffe rence between tho outlook of a 11 have 11 nation, the wealthy European Russia, and that of the 11 have not 11 l\.sian power, China. Conse- que·ntly the Soviet Union is ruled by communist left"wing Marxists who want to preserve the stEttus quo; China by right-wing Marxists v1ho want change. Lastly there is the pressure of China 1 s fRntastic population growth pushing through the Meng0lian Tiepub lic ( that was set up as a buf-· fer state) and against the frontiers of thG near--empty Russian Steppes~ The Soviets and t\mericans find themselves bedfellows in wanting to l imit the power of Chinao For the Soviets, This 11 peaceful co--existence 11 between them and the hated Capitalists has been made more palatable by the fact that Western governments no longer send buyonet--wcilding soldiers in- to break up strikes or carry on a depression war-depression cycle of business advefr• ture. In fact? in many respects the largGr labour unions_ seem to possess the more power •. Rocently certain steel and aluminum companies tried to hike prices well above the A.dministrationis price guidelines and .got shot down for it. Yet the wnge settlement of the recent N.Y. Transport workers Union, also violating the price guidelines, elected only a slight grunt from Washington. The Warsaw P.::i_ct nations t'oo have changed" They now openly experi-ment with the profit motive and both Poland and Czecho lovakia have ex-• pressed interest in joining ·the General ~grcement on Tariffs and Trade even though tariffs are a purely capitalist device. The 1963 Moscow test·· ban treaty and the proposed nuclear non-proliferation treaty show a trend to begin institutionalizing a thawo Thus both nations are freeing themselves to denl with their mutual A.sian foil., The part thn U.S. tlas piairod in limiting China is apparent to all. Recent moves by the Soviet Union show tho identity of interest in action~ The Tashkent declaration la.y~ng tho ground work for peace in the Indian subcontinent was th0 wort primarily of Chairman ti.leksei Nikolayevich (known i!.1 the West as Premier Kr.::sygin.) By engineering this declaration the Soviet Union has gainod c~odence for its claim of being an isian power interested in the wolfaro of Asians while at the same time it has strengthened the naturally anti-Chinese subcontinent. If lasting peace is "'.chieve"d between the Indians and Pakistanis, the Himalayas will once again be an effective barrier against the north. __ Recent Soviet aid promises to north Vietnam carry on this policy of blocking China.

' ..., ,., ....,,.. r ~ �7 it is crucially important to growth of the economy and to higher living standards, says the Economic Council of Canada. The council said in its second annual review that one step needing immediate attention is rapid, substantial expansion of education after high school so that no qualified student faces -any financial barrier to higher education. 11 (CP news report, Ottawa, January 5, 1966.) Behind these conclusions lies a deluge of statistics and thought. An ample supply of them may be found in either the recently issued, second annual report of the Economic Council of Canada, or in publications based on the findings of the New Democratic Party Research Department. Referring to the 11 basic message delivered ' in this year's report of the Economic Council of Canada 11 , which is essentially the same as that presented by New Democrats in the last federal election, the Financial Post commented, 11 It is not a palatable truth, but the facts produced by the council make it unarguable." That 11 basic message 11 is that essentially Canadian productivity and consequently prosperity, is well below what it could and should be because far too few Canadians receive the amount and quality of education or training a healthy, modern economy demands. A.fter stating that education and training is 11 fundamenta1n to the need for improved productivity and recommending that university education be made available to every qualified student without nny financial barri~r, the council's suggestions stop. At this point the council chairman, Dr. John J. Deutsch, feels that it is up to 11 the politicans" to decide how the council's recommendations should be implemented. HmJ can that financial barrier 11 be removed? The pre sent federal student loan system not only does not remove financial barriers, it adds a substantial interest rate on top of the high university fee. 11 Supposing the federal government eventually decides to live up to Prime Minister Pearson's long over-due promis~ to introdue a scholarship plan instead of the loan system which it gave us, will this satisfy the council's recommendations? It appears that if it is introduced, the scholarships will only be made available to students willing to claim, in writing, a lack of financial independence. Just us, (in the words of the Financial Post), "education, not wolfare, must bo the real war on poverty 11 , so education in our society is a matter of basic human rights; as well as a matter of a highly rewarding (to the whole nation) form of economic investment. Well~ what do you think of stud:Jnts b:,ing in a position whore they must 11 beg 11 for scholarships or do without? Would scholarships go to students as a Hreward 11 for lacking pur9hasing power or should university fees be removed for everyone maintaining a high enough academic standard, regardless of economic status? Nevertheless, any form of a scholarship plan would be closer to meeting the demands of the Economic Council of Canada than the existing federal student loan arrangem0nt. But why is university education not provided on the same basis as it is offered in our schools? Is it not obvious that post secondary education is just as imperative today ns high school oaucation was decades ago when free education was extended to that level? If the provincial governments ironically feel that the y can't channel enough of the public's taxes into directly improving society by paying for university education, there is no reason why tho federal govcrnment 9 in the face of the sombre warnings of CanadG 1 s top economists about tho need for greatly expanded educational servi~es, can't provide incentives which would lead the proYincial.- governme nts to introd uce fre o post-secondary eaucation. (The New Democratic Party has been proposing such un arrangement since its founding convention in 1961). In many cases the only way to make sure that 11 no qunlified student faces any financial barrier to higher education 11 would be to introduce student salaries, (dependent on academic achievement, of course.) But it seems unlikely that public opinion will become sufficiently informed to bri ne this 3b out in Ontnrio a uring 1966. ~ccording to the counc i l 's �8 report, the economic returns for govornment investment in ectucation 11 are likely to exceed by a considerabl0 margin those from most other types ,of expenditure.!! However, now, rather than seeking these high dividends by paying students so that they can pursue higher education completely free of any financial restrictions, our governments are accepting a situation whereby most students pay 11 through tho nose 11 at a rapidly rising rate for post secondary education, Meanwhile skilled labour is imported from abrond in a fruitless effort to raise Canadian productivity. No wonder foreign control over industry in Canada continues to increase, c.u.s. by Harvey Clue. Since the present A,M.S. Council has undertaken discussion on whether Lakehead University should join C.U.S. (Canndian Union of Students), a body which draws on attempts to draw campuses from all parts of Canada closer together, and since tho new ~.M.S. Executive to be elected on February 16, will probably furthor consider tho matter, and perhaps take concrete action, it might bo of interest to the students of this Univer-, sity to know some of the advantages nccompaning membership in c.u.s. Besides the obvious communication \vi th other Universities by means of meotings, conventions, Rnd the exchange visits of representatives, there are other less, yot still important advantages. For example, the students of universities who are members of the union, receive membership cards which entitle the holders to a 10 to 20 percent discount at all stores which nre mornbers of the integrated student discounts system. Most universities - in theory, at least - have a list of these di~count stores located in all parts of Canada. Moreover, C. U.S. offers 3. stude'nt life insurance policy and travel information. The latter will be of interest to those students who desire surmner employment abroado c.u.s. providGs information on suit~ble jobs plus accomodation during the temporary visit. International c.u.s. membership·cards are available which give students access to embassies and consuls· (Canadian) in the different countires. Incidentally, the cost per student per year for membership in C.U.S. is approximately~ .68 cents. · Thus there appear to bo., and this is only a sketchy outline ,of C.U.S. services, definite advantages both for the University and the students as members in the Union. Perhaps, Lakehead University will become a participant of this body, but the final outcome lays with the /J. .M. S. Council. 1966 WUSC Seminar in Turkey. A Lake,head University student, Miss Rosanne C~i'ndido has been selected to attend the World University Service of Canada Seminar in Turkey this summer~ She will join 38 other Canadian university students and five professors in a trip that starts Juno 30 in the Laurentians and proceeds to Istanbul viR Rome Rnd the Orient Express. The group will be accompRnied by two WTIB administrators: 24-year old Paul Canter, officinlly in charge of the Seminar, and Robert PanetRaymond, who r e presented Universite de Montreal on the 1963 Pakistan :Seminar and who is now at Harvard Business School. For the first time, de l e gnte s were selected on a:regional basis Yather than on n quota 'bRsis per unive rsity. ~s a r e sult, seve ral universities -will have no representation at all while othe rs will sand ·a greater number of students than ever before. Paul Cantor explains the change in selection procedure: 11 We feel this will be our most ch.::i.llengj_ng seminar yet, and we want only the best people availabl0. 11 · �I, 9 to their interests, and must submit o. 5000-word essay on topic before the ond of May. 211 assigned Dr. T. H. MacLeod, Vico-Princip~l of the University of Saskotchewnn, Regina c~mpus, will direct the Seminar. The 46 Canadinns, plus an undete rmined number of Turkish professors and students, after an 11-duy seminar in Ist~nbul, will travel about Turkey for two weeks, finally settling in ~nkara for an 8-dny residential seminc1.r. On August 1, the group will be free to travel about ns they choose, the only deadline being the August 17 flight to CanRdo from Rome. They'll be home just in time to nttend the WUS Seminnr Reunion in Kingston, and listen to delegates from tho previous 16 s emin~rs tell them how much tougher and more rewarding it was in Polnnd or Chile or Pakistctn. Man and God. By W.M.(J.:-.ck) Lammon. Is the mere fnct of tho existence or non-existence of God n point on which humanity must ponder? I think of the immeasurable time spent arguing the point when this time could be better spent in developing and im proving conditions in our mortal re al!i1. Did it m,;1. t t er to anyone of millions of Jews in Europe if God existed or not, ns their unanswered prayers rang out over the beating of their children dying by Christian compatriots? Did it m~tter to nny of thG innumer~ble mortally wounded soldiers ~s they fell fighting for numerous opposed causes, nll with ''God on our sidc. 11 I ask, is mere existence enough'? I realize that huge, conservative religions have been founded on the belief in God, and thnt these have evolved into today's churches. There is a resounding emphasis on 11 belief 11 or nccopt:rnce of the doctrine in these religions, n.s one lives n b,uo or prim~uily unhappy life so thAt he may gain a reward of eternal life. I think that man has matured enough not to expect 11 candy for bGing good, 11 c.nd any God who expects this nbe good, not nnught 11 atti tudo must be 8- figment of his or our imaginntions. Life is here to on joy, as only 1·J8 know how. We, of course, cannot forget those who :1re less or f'.lore f'ortunnte thnn ourselves. I say that we use the money allotted to war, churches, and other equally useless concepts, and train ourselves nnd th~ others around us to enjoy life. What need have we of prnyers if we have adapted most fully to our environment, are o.t peace 1'11 th one nnother, and a.bovc all 1 know how to liven full and rewarding existencu. Life 0ternal, with all its paradoxes, should be considered, if and when it cones. Each of tho Western religions, which includes Judaism, Christianity, and Islam, retains concepts that nre much too vngue to really be considered as the finc7.l ,,Truth. 11 If they arc, I re.::tlly cannot say, nor do I care. Each believes in the same God, but has murdered too many while believing these 11 Truths 11 to warrrrnt my belief in their God or their religions. In other i.-1ords, mankind must tc1.ke it upon himself to make certain of nn enjoynblc existence in th0 fnce of an ~pathetic or nonexist11nt God. P.S. This is st~tod d8spito the portion of Soci~l Darwinism (survival of the fittest hwnRns) dished out to us at the supper dnncc, Friday last. � Dublin Core The Dublin Core metadata element set is common to all Omeka records, including items, files, and collections.
