Port in Emergency 1 THE STRATEGIC position of the port of Prince Rupert in relation to the Orient is again demonstrated in the emergency call here of IIMCS Athabaskan ooming home from the war in Korea. Athabaskan was headed for base in Esquimalt but when the condition of a sick crew member so developed that immediate hospitalization was necessary, she cut at least a day off the transpacific voyage to come into Prince Rupert. She took advantage of Prince Rupert's position as being 500 miles closer to the Orient than Victoria (and Vancouver as well). In the emergency of war, Prince Rupert has often been used. It became a principal port of embarkation during the war. Some day Prince Rupert will, undoubtedly, be more than a port of emergency in the Pacific theatre. It will become a port of permanent efficient usefulness which is its proper function.

But Yugoslavia faces West not East. Get that fact for it is the most important fact of the Yugoslavia of 1951. . This peoples' dictatorship, which is still run on police state principles, is honestly trying to work out a basis where it can combine what is best ,in the economies of the East and the democracy of the West. There are many signs that the rulers here really would like to combine Western democracy with their economy. So far this is only a dream. It may be a dream beyond the capacity of this primitive country to realize, at least soon. But we could try to make the realization come to pass. I do not believe that there is another country in all Europe where large-scale economic help would pay such big dividends lor international peace and, reconciliation, as this country, Ihome, attempted to do TWO j years after their revolution ! what Red Russia attempted oniy KLEVEN years after 1917. Some of it, to Westerners, appears even now much like the Charge of the Light Brigade appeared to the French military expert: I "It is magnificent, but it is not war." ' ' When you see youngsters, even in 1951, getting ready to build another hundred miles' stretch of railway, with only pick.s and shovels, you may think: I "Hals off to them, but dops it make sense, when a few bulldozers would do the whole thing in a fraction of the time?" , I BUT, OVER-AMBITIOUS OK not, the Yugoslavs were far on the way towards completion of their goal when came the historic break with the Kremlin. Why? Now comes the point of vital significance for u.s: Sixty per cent of Yugoslavia's trade had been with the Comin-form countries, which were compelled by the Kremlin to blockade Yugoslavia.

No one can tell yet what the net result will be after the Senate hearings have dug into the background of the controversy. But, so far, the most 'obvious political effect is a tremendous boost for the Republicans. Ousting a popular hero is politically dangerous at any time but Mr. Truman's action was even more of a jolt to most Americans coming at a moment when the disclosures of the Fulbright and Kefauver committees had driven his own prestige to a new low. ' However, it is far from clear amid the shifting political currents and crosscurrents to assume what will happen in another year. A dozen different events could push the present issue to the back of the Stage.' ' , : 1 The unfortunate effect of the long-continued tenure by one party is to be seen. Developing weaknesses at home, having settled down to mere office-holding and the laxity of entrenched power, the administration may be said to lack leadership, vigor and imagination. On the other hand, the MacArthur' episode tends to show to what extremes some elements of a power-starved party may go in seeking to destroy an administration which under the constitution must remain until 1953 as the nation's agent in, foreign affairs.

That brings us to what seems to me the greatest question of this decade: Are we really fighting the coid wars, and actual wars, such as in Korea, to stop "Russian expansionism"? Or are we really, secretly, fighting to maintain the capitalist system?

When 'Britain found itself hedged about by continuing austerity, dollar shortages, war threats and American criticism, it put on a festival. The analogy is not altogether fanciful. The fanfare of trumpets with which the Festival of Britain has opened is, in a very real sense, an assertion of faith. Unlike the great exhibition of 1851, this century's festival rests on no comfortable pride of expanding empire. It is more like Churchill's undaunted eloquence and the Cockney wit that flourished under exploding wartime skies founded on character polished by adversity. Christian Science Monitor.
