Now Czechoslovakia has succumbed. Next it looks like Finland. While the United States dallies with the Marshall plan, the communists in Europe make the most of the delay, knowing that all the time they have in Europe is that which the deferment in the passage and application of the Marshall plan gives them. While there is dalliance about western aid, the communists do not wait. That is the point in the challenge of recent developments in Prague and v hat may be occuring in Helsinki, to say nothing of China. ,.re sfirie human .sensible K-ople i. 1 1 here.

We do not think for a moment when Mayor Arnold spoke of "frills" that she had any idea of suggesting that there was not plenty of need for improvement in this . city's school grounds and buildings which every one must agree have reached a point where they are a disgrace to the community. Be that as it may, however, School Inspector Hyndman must know that, even under such difficulties as exist, good scholastic attainment and educational achievement are still possible. Nobody is going to suggest that good school buildings and good grounds are "frills" but we are going to say here that there is tendency today to silver spoon and pap-feeding methods in education and we . -also suggest that intellectual attainment, cultural development and plain thorough-going preparation to meet life in a practical and conscientious vav are not being achieved to any greater degree to-lay than in a generation or so back when conditions were certainly quite as rugged as they are life bv (Jrcirorv ('lark time, although he hsd , .... .1... mil no.

HULL'S MEMOIRS 0 SPECIAL INTEREST to Pacific ports, and certainly to Prince Rupert, are the memoirs of Cordell Hull, United States Secretary of . te under Franklin Roosevelt. He describes that fateful Sunday when, even as negotiations with Nippon's two diplomats were still in progress, bombs were raining on the American fleet taken unaware at Pearl Harbor.
