Both Sides’ of Communism HEN a speaker from the far left wing proposes to give us “both sides” of Communism—which {ten means just the Red side—one wonders if the Russians get as much of both sides as we do. The “let’s be fair” attitude becomes a little rrotesque When account is taken of the freedom that the Communist cause enjoys in this country. Besides those who expound its virtues from the public rost- rum and in places of government, there is the very Red-colored press which operates in the open throughout Canada. Since neweomers to the country, being strange to their surroundings and uncertain of their future, present the most vulnerable group, the bulk of Com- munist-line newspapers are in the foreign language category. There are 19 of these in Canada which follow the Moseow dictates without question, and an assortment of others which diverge only slightly. If the 19 have a combined circulation of no more than 30,000, it is probably because propaganda is not generally so aeceptable as news, This is an example of the slant given to the Red press releases which they feature: “Thousands and thousands of Ukrainians have" perished, toiling to build Canada’s wealth. The graves of unknown Ukrainians ean be found in all parts of the country. It is on their bones that Can ada’s agriculture, coal-mining, ore-mining and metallurgical industries may be said to be founded.” In hearing about “both sides” of Communism, we would be curious to learn how both sides of cap- italism are presented in the U.S.S.R. Our suspicion is that such a speech would have to be given in two parts—one under Communist patronage and the other in Siberia, Prince Rupert Hibernates EASONAL habits of Prince Rupert are, of ne- cessity, similar to those of a bear. As winter ap- proaches it is obliged to withdraw more and more from the rest of the world. It has a hibernation period which is prebably unique among Canadian cities, The reason lies in the handicaps that winter imposes on our transpertation services. The ap- proach to the city by road and rail is subject to blockade by slides. Steamship lines curtail their operations as tourist traffie dwindles. Airline sched- ules are disrupted as shorter daylight howrs reduce the opportunities for permissible take-offs and landings. Although the cireumstances affecting the first two services are without obvious remedy, it is not so clear why winter should be allowed to affect our airline connections. This will continue to be the case, however, just so long as airplane arrivals and de- partures must be made on water. For land-based planes darkness offers no haz- ards where there is an airpert equipped with the latest navigational and control aids. Under these conditions flying may continue on a 24-hour basis, with the result that bad weather during daylight does not necessarily cancel out all operations until the next clear day as it does here, Failure to give Prince Rupert a better deal becomes all the more inexplicable when it is con- sidered that we have less daylight in winter than most Canadian cities, This fact, added to the normal deterioration of weather, puts flying around here on a hit~and-miss basis which is entirely out of keeping with the city’s merited position as a north- ern communications centre, Perhaps at this moment the federal government is giving serious thought to, resolutions calling for establishment of an airport here which were passed by the associated boards of trade meeting at Smith- ers last summer and our own Chamber of Com- merce. There is, however, no evidence that a survey. has been made to select, a location, and time is grow- ing short to prepare an estimate for the approaching session of Parliament. It is inconceivable there should be any doubt or delay over this project. For the sake of the commerce and defence of this province, with the resultant bene- fits to the country as a whele, it is time that Prince Rupert be removed for once and all from its bush league position by this imperative step. authorized as second class mali by the Post Office Department, Ottawa / by a. ore Ph ibpot t Cardinal’s Rebuke IF THE Social Credit party won the pending | by-elections in B.C. the way would be cleared for the greatest federal elee ition campaign of psalm- isinging sacrilege and po- litical deception ever at tempted in Canada. ue y “va 6¢ ‘ a he sal R and there on Sundays with the fer vid evangelical sermons (which would be fine if not perverted to politics).
