HOPE SPRINGS ETERNAL and the latest developments in the situation of Germany whereby the blockades are being lifted and the Big Four have agreed upon a resumption, after the lapse of a year and a half, of the foreign ministers' council on the settlement of the whole problem could be the basis of great hope. After such a season of obstructive tactics as have been indulged in by the Soviet and which have brought about the cold war, it is hard to believe that Moscow, may not hatch up some new embarrassments to bring about further difficult situations.

It was a strange sort of loyalty that vowed allegiance not to one's own land or one's own people but to a creed pledging to dominate a world. et, strange as it was, it met with a ready response. The part of communism abroad was to work and fight for Mother Russia and to be ready when the-tirte arrived to give all assistance to Soviet troops that might come to liberate their land. Who were the men who pledged their party to such treachery? Their voices were heard, Thorez of France and Togliatti of Italy and lesser known but not to be outdone, Pollitt of Great Britain Sharkey of Australia, Larsen of Denmark and Pessi of Finland. They were not offering the support of Russians to Russia. They were saying that French-ran and Briti and Australians and Danes and Finns, when the moment arrived would sell their own people to the invader. Everyone knows what Lenin's teachings were violent revolution with control of the state seized by party members. Our own Tim Buck has said: "The time is soon coming when communists will mah their way to victory." And what does victory mean ? It means the absolute and complete domination of a world by men who hate God, who hate all forms of religion, who deny all rights of property, all rights of freedom who hate success that is not their own ; who love only ruthless power and who seek to impose it on a world. That is what the "comrades," whether Russian or British or American or French or Canadian intend for us. ' GET DOWN TO ISSUES THE COUNTRY is to be spared along election I campaign.

An unfortunate feature of our political system is the habit of all political parties playing up local and domestic issues at election time. Equally unfortunate is the tendency to thresh over old straw. Voters hear far too much of how some politician or party voted on some measure years ago ; not enough upon what stand will actually be taken on important matters pending. -Financial Post.
