Russia Backs Down CRISIS following crisis and irritation WITH following irrigation, Russia, it has been long wince apparent, is following a policy of endeavouring to achieve her ends by all methods short of war. The events of Berlin during the last few days suggests that the Soviet, when faced with real determination such as the stand taken by Britain and the United States against the transport restrictions, will back up. She might have gained her ends even there if appeasement had been continued. But her bluff was called and she soon gave way. Possibly these events around Berlin have cleared the air to some extent. Maybe there may be further easing of the war of nerves. It seems a little firmness on our side may settle the atmosphere. In any case, it is encouraging to note that Russia is showing signs of being a little more conciliatory. : . ; HONORING GOOD CITIZEN WRITE editorials about good citizens after W'Z I hey pass on. People pay tribute and send flowers to their funerals. It has even been suggested that monuments be erected. It is unfortunate maybe that we wait until good citizens are dead before we think of honoring and eulogizing them. How much more happy it would be if. we did express our appreciation while they are still alive and could derive the. pleasure of recognition ! It is a nice custom that some cities and communities have of choosing an annual "Good Citizen" and honoring him or her in some way. It need not be a costly thing to do. An elaborate gift need not be given. Possibly some appropriate Prince Rupert organization might interest itself in the "Good Citizen" award idea.

WARNING AND EVIDENCE MORRISON, leader of the Labor HERBERT party majority in the House of Commons, is not given to, light speech, nor has he been, even distantly, a war-monger. His stern warning, therefore, to a Labor rally at Grimsby is startlingly blunt. In appealing for middle class support for the Labor party "the intelligent, level-headed Left," he urged that the trade unions should be alert to prevent "Fascist - Communists" from capturing their unions by the familiar approach of "minority conspiracies." "Let Socialist simpletons who urge co-operation w ith communists take warning," Mr. Morrison said. "Czechoslovakia today proves that Communists are enemies to parliamentary or any other kind of democracy, that they will stoop to any depth of blackmail or violence in their attempt to seize power." The untimely and tragic end of Jan Masaryk, whether by his own hand or another's, gives point to Mr. Morrison's warning. It removed the carefully built pretence that Masaryk's retention in the Czech parliament was of his own free will, and evidenced his belief in the legality and constitutionality of the Communist coup. For Masaryk there was, it would appear, the alternative of removing himself or being removed. Which it was, history may disclose. Finland too is following the pattern of Mr.x Morrison's warning, with local Communist vigilantes invading the Finnish diet and threatening the members who had opposed the Soviet pact. Or other groups storming the newspaper offices and warning that any articles critical of the pact, must cease. There is the warning, and there is the evidence. PRINCE RUPERT I . YEARS AGO !
