I Tike Pride In Canada j T IS increasingly evident that a Canadian? we I ;ne?d a good deal more pride and faith than we ?(4rn to possess at the present time. As we step ftrward to meet the problems of this reconversion jvyiod, we should be bolstered by a strong feeling oC pride in our accomplishments of the past few years and by a serene confidence in our ability to overcome the difficulties of the future. Instead there is a tendency in certain quarters to hesitate ar.d falter and to grasp at any illusion of security r:ther than to stride forward. . Too many people point to the political and economic swing to the left in European countries and suggest that we do likewise. Let us clear that prisonous fog of inferiority and lack of faith from oir thinking. Economic and political hospitalization may suit some of the wounded, torn, battered and weakened 'countries of the world, but certainly tbat is no prescription for a young vibrant healthy cwuntry just taking its place among the great i a chow mein and" cold-plate, supper served by members of ; j the Hollywood Cafe staff.

For the immediate effect and that not only in Norway was, to recall the unhappy experience of such pacts in the years between the wars. The offer of "individual non-aggression pacts had been one of Hitler's favorite devices for preventing the formation of. defensive security groups Xvhich might thwart his plans. And not only that, there 'were the Soviet Union's own famous series ' of non-aggression pacts with all her immediate iieighbors Finland, Estonia, Latvia, Lithuania, I'oland and Rumania, The three Baltic States have been swallowed. Poland and Finland were invaded. Rumania was forced to cede a province. The very vords "non-aggression" pact have been a salutary (though from the Soviet point of view deplorable) Reminder of the Russian aggressions of 1939 and of Stalin's entente with Hitler. J It may, of course, be that the Soviet leaders had -realized- the impression which the "offer" would create in the Western world and had realized also that there was no chance of luring Norway into acceptance, but that they thought ( the gesture . necessary for other reasons. ' They are plainly trying to create both in Russia hmd in the satellite states the picture of Stalin 'making peace offer after peace offer and of each offer being rejected by the Western "warmongers." That may.be in order to counter a certain uneasiness and disquiet at home. It may be intended to 'reconcile the Czechs and Poles Hand probably the Hungarians) to a new purge and a tightening of Communist control on the plea that iron discipline is Essential in the face of danger from without. It is, by the way, notable that the Soviet press now talks of endeavours to "encircle Russia" another phrase which is unfortunately reminiscent of Hitler and Goebbels.
