Now that the Co-operative Commonwealth Fed-;era,tion is for the first time in control of a government with no effective political opposition from at least within the geographical confines o its jurisdiction, it will be interesting to see how it gets along in, the way of implementing its pre-election pledges. Summarizing, it may be recalled that the. C.C.F. promised Saskatchewan a two-pronged platform designed, to meet the needs of both rural and urban residents. A pre-election published program outlined the party's aims to provide security in the home and job; improved social services and educational opportunity J.'guarantee of democratic rights; public ownership, and planned development of natural resources and finance. The program stated the C.G.F. belief in the family farm as the ba"sis of rural life and that living standards for farmers must rise with those in the rest of the community. The agricultural plank promised: 1. To stop foreclosures and evictions; 2. To control reduction of debts to a figure at which they can reasonably be End Radio Isolation . . .

For the time being Urltaln had to content her&elf with the all-out defence of her home Islands against the German aerial blitz krieg. Mid-September, 1940, was the high point of that battle. Air attacks continued, but It was from that period that the Germans themselves realized their aerial losses were greater than the results warranted.

Tha,t me sum 01 jouu snouia ,De realized is evidence pf the general interest in the good work of establishing playgrounds In this city where playgrounds are so much needed. May I make a suggestion re- ?ardlng the raising of further unds that will be needed for this laudable, enterprise? I sug gest that sets of envelopes of 12 to the set (or six to the set for the remainder of this year) be printed, "Oyro Club, For Children's Playgrounds" and distributed. I am sure the churches and many other organizations would assist In their distribution. I am confident there are hundreds of citizens who, would be willing to contribute In this way monthly amounts of from 25 cents to one dollar. A box could be. left. sa,y at Orme''s Drug Store 0 .other business centre. Into which the envelopes could be dropped on or about the first of each month and a substantial sum could thus be realized, This of course Is only a suggestion, J, A.

Stories trickling out months and even years afterward told how hundreds of German Invasion barges had been caught and sunk by the RAF. Officially, both Britain and Germany kept mum,, but It was obvious that a hastily prepared Invasion, program had failed. It served as a warning to Britain that a spur-of-the-moment Invasion could pot succeed. Britain proceeded slowly. The Commandos were organized, ami for years developed their technique In a series of hit-skip tion, damaging enemy installa tions, keeping the Nazi garrisons in a constant state of alertness and alarm. II. S. IN WAR With the entry of the United States Into the war after the Japanese attack on Pearl Harbor, December 7, 1&41, the pace quickened. In January, 1M2, American troops landed In Nor thern Ireland. They were there for one purpose; to prepare for the ultimate Invasion of Europe. Soon they extended to Britain Itself: their numbers were constantly augmented. The Americans formed their own commando - like striking force, the Rangers. In August, 1942, combined forces, mostly Canadians, stormed ashore at Dieppe, France, but there was no Intention that they remain on the continent This raid in force definitely showed the Allied Command that the Oerman defences of western Europe were strong, stronger perhaps than had. been imagined. After spending all day on the enemy coast, the raiders withdrew. Their casualties were heavy. The Allies continued their preparations and chose other fields for immediate action. In November British and Am ericans " Invaded French North T ' plans were neatly laid and kse-!y followed; they worked with the French underground.

In something near to panic,' the Oermans shifted populations wholesale from all the western coast ports of Europe, but particularly from western France and the French Mediterranean. They announced they had Italy, and at Salerno on Sept. t mounted 7,700 gigantic guns to 9 British-American co - operation of all arms reached a new peak. A mixed British-American army, conunandd "by an American general, went onto the Salerno beaches. It was a close fight. It was won eventually only by the smooth combina tion of air. sea and land power The air cover, British and American, never faltered, while strategic bombing farUier Inland was maintained constantly. British and American navies put the troops ashore, krpt them supplied with a constant string of ships and barges, and maintained liem In precarious position b the strength of the big naval' rifles, Due to the great sea and air distances from the nearest bases, it was In some ways a tougher operation than western Europe might have been, but It showed the growing perfection of Allied teamwork.
