New
Flowers
in
Rubble
'
A
unique
feature
of
post-war
London
Miss
Young
says,
Is
the
fact
that
out
of
the
bombed
rubble
are
growing
species
of
flowers
that
have
never
been
seen
before.
The
colorful
blooms
which
hide
the
grim
ruins
are
now
being
named
for
the
first'
time.
Miss
Young
believes
that
they
may
have
been
types
of
flowers
that
died
about
400
or
500
years
ago
and,
were
brought
to
the
surface
by
the
bombs
which
ploughed
the
deep
soli.
"Otherwise.
I
guess
the
only
explanation
is
that
they
were
given
us
as
compensation
to
cover
the
destruction
by
the
almighty,"
she
said.
"Because
they
were
born
of
the
blitz
they
j
are
called
'fireballs.'

It
is
not
reasonable
to
expect
that
six.
years
of
bloody
warfare
will,
have
removed
the
conditions
of
human
and
international

which
caused
war
and
that
the

of

can
be

after

H.

who
spoke

before

Prince

at

yesterday
on
the
subject
of
"Questions
of
the
Day"
from
a
world
standpoint.
"War
does
not
suddenly
change
human
nature,"
declared
the
speaker.
Basically,
all
people
were
Interested
In
perSonal
security
and
welfare.
National
rivalries
still
existed.
Therefore,
there
should
not
be
undue
pessimism
If
the
settlement
of
postwar
nroblems
seemed
a
slow
nro-
cess.
Rather
there
should
be
patience
and
tolerance
as
all
strlved
towards
a
better
and
more
peaceful
world.

In

about

through

among

stressed
the

"Where
there
is
no

people
are

Interested
In

but
In
the
assurance
of

tenance

In

Canada
and
the
United
States
were
today
moie
than
ever
dependent
upon
inlerna-tional
trade
and
the
finding
of
markets
for
the
products
they
produced.
Therefore,
today
it
became
necessary
for
them
to
finance
their
customers
so
that
those
customers
could
reconstruct
themselves
and
buy
"our"
goods.
Thereby
prosperity
was
shared.
llic
nations
today
must
pursue
policies
recognizing
the
Indivisibility
of
economic
prosperity.
Before
the
war
Canada's
foreign

had
been
largely

of
her
raw
materials
and
products.
During

she
Today
she
was
capable
of
a
huge
manufacturing
production.
Her
customers
had
no
cash
so
the
only
way
they
could
buy
was
by
borrowing
the
money
from
Canada
which
had

"If
we
do
not
lend,
therefore,
our
industries
are
idle
for
lack
of
markets
and
we
have
unemployment
and
de
pr,csslon.
International
co-operation
and
prosperity
are
necessary
if
the
average
man
"Is
to
be
able
to
earn
a
living."
Meantime,
it
was
not
to
be
expected,
that
there
would
be
a
rational
viewpoint
among
the
I
nations
which
were

and

There
was
nothing

about
the
fact
that

after
