That government control of creative behaviour is essential to the general welfare has extended itself into oractically every kind of activity farming, manufacturing, charity", security, education, labor. ; The pamphlet, published by the Foundation of Economic Education, gives the apparent causes for this social cancer. Many individuals have either lost a belief in their own capacity to care for themselves, or have been sold the idea that their wants can be supplied without personal effort or cost. "Whether one cause or the other, or a combination of both, this rapidly growing resort to coercion as a means to achieve economic progress within society is accompanied by a corresponding and diminishing faith in the ability of free men to satisfy their needs and aspirations." We must have a revival of faith in free men, who as persons individually, or voluntarily getting together, can achieve creative performance. That isf our defence against socialism. I The present "something for nothing" philosophy is a path which leads to a dead-end of a controlled and enslaved people. ! wnaiever atomic w, I The Perfect Daily Paper ny jia available (or a M use apparently ar, dltloii to atomic bombs k pact package size, Whi',i By R.

On one occasion when he was acting as Assistant Whip, Mr. Mckenzie King wanted his supporters present in the Chambers in as large numbers as possible, so Mr. Hanson went about from office to office rallying the faithful. Joe Bradette, a renowned bachelor, member for Cochrane at that day, had been entertaining some ladles from hie home constituency. Seeing is to ne swept in uver the up- j the "Old Coiitemptibles" became position of the well-oiled Tart machine. EISENHOWER seem to me to have weakened his own cause by suggesting a drastic cut in U.S. military expenditures. This the highest British honor. They made the smear the hadpe of tionor. FROM Canada's point of view the danger of a Taft victory is obvious. He stands for the traditional high-tariff Kenuli- that he could be so very rich, and at the same time so very plain. On night one of tb back benchers whispered to "Olie" that one of their mates in the House was in a very bad position and needed $5e,0O9 quickly. "Olie" promptly took out a check book and wrote a chequ for $50,000, which of course was never used and which was later torn up. Mr. Hanson's steady hand was missed in the last B.C. provincial election. . He was a tower of strength Jo the. Literal party wherever went, he was particularly effective in foreign language groups. Workers on the railroad or in logging camps of foreign birth are often easily won over to the side of Communism. Olie Hanson was almost a symbol of free entemri.se.
