As our native population in Prince Rupert and surrounding villages comprise a formidable part of the district's economy, it is their due that they receive this recognition, albeit sadly lacking at times. And the native people, with a cultural background rich and ornate, can show us much of an edifying nature if we y;ive them that opportunity. True, much of their artistry has been put aside and in some instances almost lost, but is this not j'erhaps for the reason that their culture has not been appreciated? All races have their own intrinsic fundamentals on which their development and progress is based. It is only wit h a serious appreciation of there fundamentals that we can hope to understand people of other races, and only through such a will to understand can we live in equanimity and peace. If we then invite our first pioneers of this fast-developing North to tell us their story by means of their arts and crafts, let us show a real appreciation, not only from a sense of curiosity hut with a sense of understanding.

The vast outpouring of American i money HAS raised the standard of living in many countries west of the Iron Curtain. But now the danger is that the self-same process will begin to operate in reverse. It is one thing for the United States to plunge into a vast arm- anient and mobilization program and to attempt at the same time to maintain high standards of living. The North American productive machine has never yet been worked to its full wartime capacity and what the experts call its "potential" provides vast room for expansion. That is not true of Europe- and especially it is not true of this Britain this "tight little Isle." A real increase in the armament production, or rebuilding cf big armies, ean only be at the expense of the living standards of the people. These are far below those of North America already. Any marked lowering of those al-teady standards would have consequences that nobody can predict. The Marshall Plan gave Europe, and Britain, the economic lift that Europe desperately needed in order to get back on her feet. But the Martial Plan of war preparation compelled by Russian truculence is a horse of a different color.

I ' 1 f m ore Visor 10IM) POLICE SHOUT i LONDON, England About the first thing thrt strikes your eye when you :get to Britain these days is the sign, "Men Wanted." Mure precistly, I should say I men and wmen wanted. Every ; bus carii.'s a notice informing I the public that many conductors' jobs are open for male and , female. i The London Police Force is already 4000 recruits short, to keep its ranks up to quota and permit ' retirements. The Congregational : Church is desperately short of , ministers can't man all its pul-' pits. So all around the circle. ' FROM ONE FOINT OF VIEW j the above is all to the good. I : remember writing editorials for J tlw old Toronto Globe, back in 1928, when we were raising funds for the relief of unemployed Welsh miners. j I There is no such distress today : and it is my opinion, for what it is worth that there never will ! be again in all British history. ' For the people will never again i tolerate any government which tells them they can only be fully employed in time of war, or in periods of preparation for war. i NEVERTHELESS, BRITAIN IS In a very dangerous position todayand I am not now talking about the danger which faces all mankind that is, of another j war j Britain is in danger of an economic crisis caused by the j ; fact that you just can't have all ' the armaments that are now i ; thought to be necessary, and ' j also have an adequate supply ! of civilian goods, j In the Hitler days in Germany, when the world was being pushed toward World War II. Ooering said Germany deliberately chose "guns before butter." , Britain is finding out, the hard way, that she must choose between guns and butter, too. Some people in the U.S.A. and elsewhere make fun at Britishers wasting their time arguing over whether or not the state should go on providing the people with "free wigs and glass eyes'" under the health care plan. The British peiple do not .talk about such issues at least not from r.-ac lncr tne naDers or . he news about the crisis in the cabinet. But my impression is that they have a solid grasp of the substance of the issues. The free wigs and glass eyes Hii trivialities, but as symbols of the principles at stake they are big and even vital. THE BRITISH PEOPLE WILL do their duty and stand by their guns as well as their principles in any world crisis in our time. But on the broader, deeper issue they have long since made up their national mind: I They are for butter before guns. They are for homes before bombs. They are for planned reconstruction and not more destruc- tian- They are reluctantly "going along" in the world wrestling match, for Russian truculence has literally compelled them to do so, much against their own wishes. But they will not do so for one moment longer than is absolutely necessary.
