EDITORIAL
ROAD
TO
GREATNESS
It
has
been
rightly
said
that
the
country's
future
often
lies
in
a-study
of
the
past.
The
builders
of
this
country
had
great
dreams
and
plans
for
what
Canada
could
become.
The
courage
and
determination
that
pushed
the
early
settlers
farther
and
farther
west,
the
faith
and
perseverance
that
built
the
railways,
were
rooted
in
something
deeper
than
personal
gain.
These
men
had
to
pioneer
in
the
realm
ot
the
physical.
To
make
their
dream
come
true,
they
had
j
to
overcome
Indians,
mountains,
droughts
and
all
'
the
forces
of
nature.
Today,
to
build
the
Canada
we
want,
we
have
defeatism,
buck-passing,
apathy
andi
the
weskest
sides
of
human
nature
to
overcome.

One
road
is
the
same
that
brought
us
unprepared
to
two
world
wars
in
a
quarter
century.
Its
surface
is
smooth,
and
it
is
dotted
with
many
comfortable
park
benches
and
hot
dog
stands.
But
if
followed
it
will
take
us
into
World
War
III.
The
other
road
takes
a
different
direction.
It
looks
less
travelled
;
y
in
fact
there
is
grass
growing
up
between
the
paving
stones.
This
road
is
not
such
easy
going
and
it
seems
at
first
sight
to
be
much
the
longer
way
round.
The
first
puts
expediency
ahead
of
principle
and
wealth
above
character,
substitutes
"business
is
business"
for
"love
thy,
neighbor
as
thyself,"
is
characterized
by
high
talking
and
low
living
and
puts
the
almighty
dollar
first
The
other
restores
true
values
where
they
belong.
'
Here
in
a
,few
words
is
the
underlying
issue
today.
This
is
the
war
of
ideas
about
which
so
much
has
been
written
and
said.
The
future
of
the
country
depends
on
the
choice
its
people
make.
If
we
take
the
wrong
road
now
the
best
of
post-war
plans
will
not
put
us
on
the
right
track.
We
will
have
the
sort
of
Canada
we
want.

TIME
IS
DANGEROUS
In
the
last
four
provincial
elections,
four
different
parties
have
been
elected.
Social
Credit
in
Alberta,
C.C.F.
in
Saskatchewan,
Union
Nationale
in
Quebec
and
now
Liberals
in
New
Brunswick.
While
the
political
picture
as
a
whole
seems
somewhat
confused
with
no
apparent
unity,
close
political
observers
are
placing
higher
stakes
than
ever
on
Mackenzie
King
returning
to
power
when
the
Federal
election
is
held.
ti&fe
Despite
a
strong
bid
for
a
returnjt3jnational
favor,
the
Conservative
party,
now
operating
under
the
more
appealing
name
of
Progressive
Conservatives,
provides
strong
threat
to
King,
and
the
flow
of
the
C.C.F.
tide
has
eased.
Meanwhile
the
Liberal
solidarity
has
been
manifest
from
coast
to
coast.
This
means,
simply,
that
Mackenzie
King
will
be
re-elected,
provided
the
election
is
not
delayed
too
long.
Time
lag
could
prove
a
serious
antagonist.
There
is
a
saying
in
the
United
States
that
"as
Maine
goes,
so
goes
the
nation."
The
State
of
Maine
borders
on
the
province
of
New
Brunswick.
As
that
province
has
returned
the
Liberals
with
a
big
majority,
will
it
hold
that
"as
New
Brunswick
goes,
so
goes
the
Do-minion

John

that

In

I
From

the

have
travelled
as

and
they
have
slunk

Into

a

the

The
gopher
Is

and
does
not

Hats
are
different,
If
they
become
established
In
Alberta
they
are
likely
to
pick
up
plague

And,
equally
likely,
they
