NEHRU ATTACKED flALGALOEE, India. Here for the first time in India, I. have heard Mr. Nehru's foreign policy sharply and publicly criticized. I am speaking of a meeting of the Indian Institute of Culture an organization which stems from the William Quan Judge branch of the world Theasophi-cal Society. There were about a hundred or a hundred and fifty peop.j present nearly all Indian. The back half of the hall was given over to seats, Western 4 ' lit V '"r ,. V . - BE A JM, m style. But in the front, half the young men from the adjoining hostel sat, Indian fashion, on floor mats. My speech, arranged on a few hours' notice, was about the need to move from the present system of international lawlessness to a true system of world law, made by a world parliament actually empowered to make law. I tried to show that India was in key position in all the world to help mankind make this move Has Gran by The Answer? THE thriving city of Granby, Quebec, across tlie St. Lawrence River and about 45 miles from Montreal, has ninety-one industries and from many parts of the world others are looking for the opportunity to locate tltere. Granby offers no concessions to Lii-dustrial proj ect s but the city does promise that the people who are brought there to work and live will be provided with the amenities of good living, the most important being that of adequate housing. It is as simple as that but it is proving a great inducement and by that means Granby is becoming a community of permanence, happiness, .comfort and prosperity and a model for all Canada. The city of Granby actively participates in the financing of a co-operative housing scheme by providing assistance1 where necessary. Workers who come there are able to obtain homes on a rental-purchase plan whereby as little as $25 a month is required, not merely as a rental but including the monthly payment, with a view to eventual ownership. With $1H00 down and a similar monthly instalment, a fairly ambitious home can be obtained. It might be well for Prince Rupert to find out more about the Granby housing scheme. Lack of housing is the thing that is really holding up Prince Rupert now. It is the big stumbling block to everything. We thought all would be well and happy once we got big industry located here. Now the big industry is here and we are unable to take care of it from the housing standpoint to say nothing of the requirements of new people who would come here as a result of 'the expansion of attendant new industries and expanding business. Yes, Granby, Quebec, seems to have something that Prince Rupert, British Columbia, needs badly. I 3 r.ESERVIS', ia Your Own Home tm I "'-ir tg&lfi"' .- ,-'- from nationalism to worldism.
