EDITORIALS GROW POTATOES It has been suggested to, us that we should advocate growing, potatoes on vacant lots in order to make sure of a food supply in, case the war continues. The idea would be a good one if the-lots could be cultivated wkhay 'amount of effort. A few of the lots havS Tbeen rea-sonable tramnerl until ttiov 1 ....l .ve "e?n - w.w wu JO 6 muii. man mosi peop e imag ne; Those who; have never tried cultivating in Prince Rupert can! not imagine how- difficult it is to dig up even half a lot Many have done it andothen woll do ft but iUs no Jobto be undertaken, except by a man who has strong arms arrt a By all means grow potatoes. The crop is assured if the grower has the will to do the work. J2 .50 3-00 9.00 02 25 MUCH OVEKIJATED COUNTRY j The progress of the war in Finland indicates that thef military strength of Russia has been very much overrated. The system of oppression that has been carried out there is such as to depress the people and they have no heart to fight They have little to fight for. We look back with a good deal of appreciation to the i time when the Russian army saved Europe from the Ger-! mans. Later we hoped great things from the Russian rev j olution for njany people felt that the Russian people had i' in them to make something of the country. Then camr the gradual growth of a despotism, more cruel and ruthless than anything Russia ever had in the past ! Tedair the country is anything but prosnerous. The1 people are poorly fed, poorly clad and badly housed. Uji- 1 der Oiwe afeditfcns it cannot be expected that they.would 1 be good fighters. i " WHAT WILL RUSSIA DO? It looks to us as if Russia is bound to fight the de-mocracies sooner or later. They have been so aggressive j that even if Finland-is overcome some country is bound to dispute their right to general overlordship. Now that they have shov. n that they are not as formidable as might i have seemed, nobody is dreading a Red attack. I wnat a pity it is that the Scandinavian countries could not have got together and formed a mutual, pact for defence of their countries. With all united,. Russia would not have dared try to rob Finland of her nickel mines Even as it is she may never get them. It looks as if the Communist that Russia woultftrv to force Roumania newspaper into a treat" announced was reflecting the wish if not the intention of the Kremlin It is possible it-was an attempt to get the world rracHnn to such a move. Russia will move against Roumania if "he thinks she can get away with it. If the opposition is too SSfiSi SinSnd8'ft MUCh ' " - -rjtrr -"- - . THE DAILY NEWS . ' i Hi ' Pr.dav r.
