IMMJGIUTION IT MAY NOT BE so often that we see eye-to-eye wtih oftr Socialist federal member. Harry Archibald; but it Ss a pleasiii-e for us to agree to large extent vVith principles he expressed on immigration in an a'ddress last night. Mr. Archibald declared that Canada needed immigration but that it should be carefully planned so that people to be brought in could be assimilated t6 the advantage of themselves and the country. Care should be exercised in the placement, such areas as sugar beet growing and tobacco raising being mentioned. The immigration should be non-sectarian and the Skeena member suggested the danger of concentration of types. Wisely he counselled that experiences of the past, arising from the wholesale importation of certain, classes for exploitation purposes, should be guaijtled against and, in that connection, he referred jpailicularly to the recent Japanese situation in "Britiiolumbia. - " There are certain, agricultural areas of Mr. Ar-clnlfald. own riding such as the Bulkley Valley that are directly interested in immigration of the "Slight, type. Mr. Archibald's remarks may' have had a political inspiration but little exception could be taken to the substance of the comments he made k t I t i u. m as. m on the subject 'of immigration. He spoke hot but tohserv&'tiV'ely and sonstructlvely on at . least .tnifc one subject. i i- CANADA AND UNITED STATES MOST CANADIANS recognize Communism as perhaps the major problem of World security today-. United States may be regarded as the greatest bulwark against Soviet imperialism, whjch, to most people here, is- indistinguishable ' from Communism. Canadian, relations Vvith the United States do not involve the sentimental aspects of bur relations with the United Kingdom. Sentiment, in a country such as Canada, can become a dangerous source of discord in time of crisis, as history has shown. Economic and strategic considerations of selfdutejest are sufficiently great in the, present circjflfnstattc'ek- toinsure haYinony in , Canadian opinion without resort' to grblmds of sentiment as a justification for action. The United States is no longer the static imponderable of world politics, but the dynamic determinant. The centre of gravitv in international affairs has shifted from London to Washington. This, circumstance In itself, without in any way derogating from our sentimental loyalties toward the U niteu .kingdom, may enable Canada to develop her own international policies along more positive lines. , - ' The most of Canadians would support those who are determined to govern themselves in their own way, and who hohOr the right of others to do likewise. Such, in essence, is the Truman Doctrine. Such, in fact, is the basis of Ameilcan foreign policy today. Wherever it may lead, no matter what the conseauences, because it is a policy backed by force, Canadians are 'concerned not only for economic reasons but because of their commitments in terms of reciprocal defence Which involves not only the St. Lawrence, the Arctic Circle, or the Pacific Coast but Hungary, or Czechoslovakia, or Poland, or wherever ejse trouble brews in the form of Hotel Arrivoh Prince Rupert 3. hedcten, VartcoWVer'; (Seotge, barker, Van'toi'vert 0.

"I shouted to Vincent: 'Your dad Is in the water' He came out of the focsle, put the engine in neutral as. he went by and went to the stern of the boat 1 i snrr him trvlng to reach his father. I looked out again and saw his feet in' the air Just as he went into the water. I presumed that the weiehi of his father's body had pulled him in." "I put the engine In reverse, hut the boat drifted away. I threw a rope to them, but they did not get it. My nephew was weakening, then he sank." "My brother was on tcp of the water all the time. I found it hard to manoeuver the boat to p.et near him. Then he weakened and rank, too." ito'nv jhioVfd by air Himui.r.s Mr. Leighton said that he cruised around In search for the bodies and after a short time, saw an object floating Just below the .surface. It was his brother's body, buoyed, he believed by an air bubble In his clothing. With Treat difficulty, Edward hauled George's body aboard, then cruised In search of his nephew, shouting loudly for help. Fred rarKer, hearing the cries, came out to the boat In his dinghy with Mrs. Parker. Edward then tried to revive his brother with artificial respiration.
