Needham, "One Man's Opinion," in the Calgary Herald. "Mr. Needham writes trenchantly and realistically. His ideas and words are challenging and must ring uncomfortably in the ears of the smug and complaccent," says the News letter. "Look what is happening," says Mr. Needham. in a recent column. "The rich nations of this world are appallingly weak in the military sense; the poor nations are appallingly strong-. The low-income half of humanity is pushing around the high-income half. The low-income half, which obviously cannot afford to maintain and equip a large force, is maintaining and equipping them; the high-income half, which obviously can afford to, is not." In the same column, Mr. Needham reaches the following conclusion: "We of the western world place comfort above survival. We have forgotten the truth so well put by Somerset Maugham: "If a country values anything more than freedom it will lose its freedom; and the irony of it is that if it comfort or money that it values more, it will lose that too.' "The sands of history are littered with the wreckage of empire," points out Richard Needham. "They fought, won, grew rich, got soft, were challenged and overthrown by other empires which, in turn, went through the same process. The have-nots take the haves, the attackers the defenders, the barbarians the civilized. It is all written down." We have fought, we have won, we have grown rich and we are now being challenged. Now is the testing period as to whether or not we have grown soft. Now is the time for us to strip off the fat, to condition our muscles, to exercise and develop those spiritual and mental qualities which constitute the real strength of a people . . ." the fclfS, the Montreal press hig one another of the begawjied minted Teature headlines ov;v the state of the Labrador co;)i)fc-' use mm coiu Hku lasi yeai. , .., ,., K!iM.

Your AUSTIN and STUDEBAKER Deo Superior Auto & Body Ser NEVER bofove in all the history of this troubled world has there been such fear and trepidation ill the hearts of men as currently exists in the face of the present international situation. Never before has there been so great a need to warm ourselves once again before the fires of faith and hope and charity. ; The peace for which we have fought two World Wars within a generation may indeed be in jeopardy but true peace, the peace of the spirit, peace of mind, can still be gainnl although we are living in an armed camp. War clouds may darken the horizon but discouragement must not be allowed to darken our hearts. . We must all of us live in the faith that what is right will survive and the armour of hope must never be laid aside. If we determine to shun defeatism and indifference, if we resolve to accept the heavy responsibilities which are ours as free men and women in a free society, if we do these things conscientiously and well, we can and shall retain that peac of mind which is its own reward.
