Russian
or
American
T
HERE
can
be
no
argument
about
the
Russian
statement
that
the
world
is
splitting
into
two
orbits
Russian
and
American
or
might
it
more
accurately
be
said
into
conflict
between
two
idealogies?
Of
course,
Russia,
in
her
determined
desire
to
extend
her
sphere
of
influence
with
no
other
apparent
activating
motive
than
her
own
aggrandizement
and
desire
to
dictate
without
as
well
as
within,
is
doing
nothing
to
compose
the
conflict.
The
new,
Russian-organized
communist
international
organization
can
be
regarded
as
wothing
less
than
a
resumption
of
the
Comintern,
an
avenue
for
the
extension
of
Russian
influence
by
infiltration
abroad.
As
a
matter
of
fact,
the
Russians
franHly
admit
the
aim
to
fight
the
Marshall
plan
and
what
it
is
pleased
to
call
American
"imperialism"
whatever
that
may
imply.
As
far
as
the
ordinary
citizen
of
the-
world
is
concerned,
it
boils
itselfv'.uown
to
the
alternatives
-J
of
two
ways
of
living
the
Russian
or
the.
Ameri-can,
.
British,
Canadian

what
we
may

however,

The

Haopily
it
was
not

to
go
beyond
Canada
in
the

construction
of
the

This
Canadian
National
vessel
is
the
largest
passenger
craft
yet
built
on
the
coast,
as
well
as
being
the
most
modern
in
general
equipment,
fittings
and
service.
The
reason
Canada
did
not
have
to
look
beyond
her
own
borders
was
because
of
the
record
made
during
,the
second
great
war
in
,the
shipyards
of
the
Dominion.
The
number
of

built
and
the
satisfaction
they

convinced
the
Canadian

authorities,
as
announced
by

of
the
wisdom
of
th

pursued.
WHAT
NEWSPAPERS
DO
BESIDES
giving
service
and
information,
what
else
does
a
newspaper
do?
Editor
W,
L.
Baker
of
Ketchikan,
well
known
in
Prince
Rupert,
proceeds
to
answer
the
question
as
follows:
"The
newspaper-sells
goods.
It
sold
at
least
one
house
yesterday
for
a
cost
of
about
$2.00,
the
day
before
it
sold
a
car
for
the
cost
of
under
$1.00.
It
speeds
up
turnover
of
merchandise
and
cuts
costs
of
selling.
"It
must
entertain
with
its
comics
.and
its
feature
stories;
it
must
report
the
news
without
fear
or
favor
or

It
must
criticize
public
servants
and
public
serv-ices
that
put
profit
or

above

itself
and
many
times
it
must
be
boycotted
and
sued
and
profaned
for
telling
what
it
believes
to
be
the
truth.
Telling
of
the
truth
itself
becomes
risky
business
at
times;
so
risky
that
many
prefer
not
to
seek
it
out
and

"The

however,

darkness

ICHIEF

CHALLENGE
I
Fred
Vinson
Warns
Against
Pitfalls
Personal
Responsibilities
CLEVELANP,
Ohio
The
Chief
Justice
of
the
United
States,
Frederick
M.
Vinson
,has
given
a
double
warning
to
the
Araor.an
public
not
to
fall
into
reactionary
pitfalls.
An
age
of
great
challenge,
he
says,
Is
at
hand.
It
is
an
age
of
great
opportunity
as
well
as
danger
and
difficulty.
"Rarely
in
human
history,"
he
declared,
"have
men
been
ac
corded
so
high
a
prlviege
and
so
appalling
a
responsimnty.
'
What
is
needed
first
of
all,
he
said,
is
to
reaffirm
faith
in
fundamental
values
on
which
has
been
based
all
that
is
wortn
while
In
society.
"Those
persons,"
said
the
Chief
Justice,
"who
live,
in
the
vain
delusion
that,
by
shrinking
from
responsibility
and
struggle,
and
thereby
find
peace
and
se-curity
who
try
to
escape
challenge
or
ignore
it
can
only
find
disaster.
The
danger
of
losing
faith
in
'ourselves,"
he
said,
"if
perhaps
the
greatest
hazard
of
today."
He
saw
among
the
challenges
facing
Americans
the
weakening
of
the
family
and
the
loss
of
spiritual
values
growing
out
of
the
strong
family
bond
and
a
growing
lack
of
faith
in
and
respect
for
law
and
legal
processes.
"Here's
something
I
want
tc
quote
you,"
said
the
Old
Timet
this
morning.
It
says:
'
Vh:n
socialists
keep
on
-harping
about
controls
as
the
essence
of
their
policy,
they
lend
plausibility
to
the
charges
that
they
are
really'
frustrated
bureaucrats
with
an
itch
to
manage
other
pfopiiVbunrieW
for
tncm.'
;
"Who
said
that?
Well,
it
was
a
leading
figure
in
the
C.C.F.
"He
was
scolding
his
own
people,
but
the
point
is
interesting.
Isn't
there
just
a
little
more
than
plausibility
in
those
charges?
"What
do
you
hear
in
the
socialist
speeches,
or
for
that
matter
in
the
Cantaunist
speeches
when
they
are
talking
to
people
vmo
aren
t
Communists?.
Isn't
it
always
.that
they
arc
going
to
tate
over
what
others
have
created
and
then
run
those
businesses
as
they
say
'for
use,
not
for
profit?'
"What
do
you
think
you
would
get
if
this
country
should
decide
to
throw
out
free
enterprise
and
substitute
government
ownership
and
control
of
everything?
You'd
certainly
get
controls
by
a
lot
of
bureaucrats,
and
then
more
controls,
and
still
more.
It's
an
inevitable
process.
Look
at
any
socialist
country
in
the
world
and
you
can
see
it
working.
"Do
you
think
you
would
find
men
pushing
out,
creating
new
businesses,
planning
great
enterprises?
Do
you
think
the
lot
of
the
ordinary
man
or
woman
would
be
improved?
Well,
for
me,
and
I've
lived
quite
a
time,
I
don't."
