S, U UpLY NATIONALISM lltTENSE NATIONALISM one nation's self-centred and exclusive consideration of its own interests aid aggrandizement to the utter da regard djtll others the 'element thiat hatfbfcen a major contributory falctor to ; all wars of the past thjrough the "Agression that has grown. ,out. cf satisfaction of uncontrolled anu undented nationalism jis stalking the world again today, notwithstanding the lesson which, tvlice in the course of a generation, has been taujht to one great nation aijd so recently to another, leading to; the utter subjection and ruin of bdtli. I; No sane observer of the international s?ene cannot but become more satisfied as one day follows another that we have another great nation that is practising unbridled nationalism, a nationalism that is beginning to! manifest internationally illegal tactics' just 'as surely as did Nazi Germany in her worst days.. In security council proceedings in New York, in foreign ministers' parley at Paris day after day it is being displayed with no attempt to justify it unless it (be mildly condoned on occasion in thja defensive with a sort of "two wrongs make a right" argument. That 'it will lead to another and early world war we, of course, all hare lo. think but can hardly help frfom fearing. Compromise appears to "being rapidly stretched to the bijeakiflgfDoint. Then there will be nothing left ''but recourse-to appeasement, the bitter iuixs of which we JiaVe already pasted, a determined sthnd backed with the means and wjll'.td enforce it. ' 1 j Who, can say that international, affairs are not rapidly speeding on toja crisis? We would be blind indeed if we should ignore the fact- OW WILL IT END? , jlE PRESENT developing infla-i jtionary cycle will end like the last one, in 1D20, ended. On one day, the supply of goods at a given price will not be enough to meet the demand. Alfew days later, at the same price, sellers will not be able to dispose of all they have. The price boom will bej over and inflated prices will go down like a punctured balloon. How can such a. drastic change ocpur so rapidly? It can happen overnight, literally, simply because this change comes from a reversal in mass psychology. iiGra'nted that real scarcities exist toflay in many markets. Buyers know thjs, and are doubly anxious to purchase ; sellers know it and take advantage of it. But even today, supplies of most items are increasing. i;This gain i- supplies is not yet impressive. I; may be interrupted fr6m time to time by strikes. Costs mdy rise - further. Shipments are sometimes delayed or held back Sellers naturally continue to emphasise the difficulties and the problems. Many buyers lack information about the true level of production and believe everything they are told. By shopping here and there for wanted items, they give sellers an inflated idea of what the true demand i3. But all the time the supply keep3 gaining. One day some buyer, who is more far-sighted or more intelligent or better informed than the rest, decides the time has come to be cautious. He quietly cuts down his buying or perhaps cancels a few orders. A few more buyers follow him. Or there may be a spontaneous buyers' strike at the consumer level. or perhaps a few sellers, seeing the end of a one-way street, make some sort of concession. The news spreads. Within a day or two everyone has heard it. Practically overnight it is realized that the scarcities that were so real a few months ago have suddenly become fictitious. The boom is over the bust is on. JUDGE ON STRIKES Vancouver News-Herald thinks THE that Mr. Justice A. M. Manson, in an address on "Canadian Citizenship" before the Kiwanis Club, deserves the thanks of the community for his forthright remarks about the disrespect now being shown to laws of the land. The jurist saw this disregard for the law, trespass on private property, and assumption of legal powers by boards and officials, bringing this country near to anarchy-He Was particularly outspoken with regard to labor strikes, by means of which certain labor elements were superseding the laws of the country. There have been a series of such illegal strikes shaking the -basis of our economy, and no government has moved to enforce the. laws regarding illegal strikes". Even now there are at leasb three such strikes irj progress here in B.C. Mr. Justice Manson is right. He is only throwing the public spotlight upon the concern which has been in the minds of many people for a long time. A strike is a form of warfare. It isi a warfare in which the general public arej the sufferers! the ' grdat": t losers. Strikes of the present type ale not liberty but license. Liberty is the right of everyone to live in a community with respect to the rights of others. LabQr. unons should be required to incorporate! to hold straightforward elections', and to account for their funds. One of the best suggestions to end the present unhappy strike situa-tion is the proposal to set up judicial courts which would be arbitrators in all labor disputes. They would be impartial courts to which labor and industry could resort just as easily as citizens now appeal to civil courts for the redress of grievances and settlement of disputes. This would he infinitely preferable to the present procedure of taking the law violently into their own hands. It might even be possible to have a supreme labor court to which appeals could be made. Both sides should be bound by the decision of the courts. Then strikes could be completely outlawed. Some such solution is vitally essential. There must be a stop to the trend, which Judge Manson has deplored, away from the proper regard and respect for the democratic laws of Canada.
