These functions have taken much of tlie traditional bitterness out of the great game of politics. Some of the old-timers profess a preference for the old rugged days.

At times and for long bleak j Intervals it seems as if brilliance of repartee was a lost art in the Chamber. But every now and then there are flash-backs to the wit of the old day?. For Instance, Hon. Eurl Rowe, Deputy P.C. House Leader, recently applauded a CCF speaker in the debate on unemployment for a particularly effective anti-government statement. A Liberal MP admonished him peremptorily and rudely. "You had betir shut up." the Liberal MP warned Rowe.

While in many ways Including the field of wit, it may be that Parliaments of the past surpassed their predecessor of the present, there are other respects n which the practices of today earn the title of "the good new-days." For cumple. there Is' the softening of party lines between the MP's in their social relations. In I he old davs a Liberal only entertained fellow Liberals; a Conservative only entertained fellow Conservatives. Both party members entertained Press Gallery correspondents impartially and hopefully. Neither party entertained the CCF. It was a far cry from this state of affairs to the spectacle on a recent night of Liberal House of Common Speaker, Hon.

While nothing official has heen announced, it is xpected that Alcan will have its first two potlines n operation by mid-September. The federal g'iV-rnment plans to ril itself of the drydock and ship-ards approximately two weeks later. , It will make ouite a picture. At one point on the coast we will witness deepsea vessels starting to steam in almost daily to a booming new industry, while just a few miles north a once-great shipping plant will he formally entering its final period of :lecay. Or perhaps we should call it a period of dismemberment as there appears to be at least one firm willing to tear the whole thing apart and haul away the pieces. If this happens, the unpleasant irony' of the. situation will- be brought into still sharper relief. As the ships loaded with alumina surge northwards they will pass a file of tugs towing relies of our dry-dock, headed south. In a grim sort of way, it would make the picture of the year, or possibly of the century. A photographer rarely has such z chance to depict vision and the lack of it on so grand a scale, side by side. If a sale is hnhde to someone with more faith in-the north than the demolition squad in New- Westminster, the tragic scene need never be enacted. That faith, of course, does not necessarily have to take the form of ship building and repair. There are many other industries which, on that waterfront site, have an assured future. As things stand, however, the government is not holding out for faith. It will settle for a quick dollar, no questions asked. FASHION FOOTWE on communism The Editor, The Daily News. Many people who are sympathetic with communism or socialism from a Christian point of view should remember that the "communal" way of life as practised by the early Christians for a short time was entirely voluntary with everyone donating their enUre worldly fund to be sh-ircd equally by all, rich and poor and no records kept. To .such people, may I suggest that communism or socialism is the direct antithesis of this early communal way of life. Communism compels the citizen to give up all to the stale A person has to have the servile soul of a slave to be able to enjoy such mastership. Not, for me. thank you. OF THE TWO generals one was American and one wis Russian. The American, General Ridg-way, was telling a New Mexico audience that "a handful of evil men" in Moscow posed a threat to the United States which could mean, all-out war. The general described some features of this war. When and if forced to strike, he said, the U.S. would hit back at an attacker with atom bombs and worse.

OUR FUTURE ENEMY KNOWS THIS WELL." I HAVE made a long and careful study of the way that international powei politics works. I am convinced that one thing the genersls, in all countries, must always have is that next war." No army can survive without a potential enemy. Before the war of 1914 both sides talked and even bet, privately, about its coming. Before the war of 1939 we saw thsamc condition only in more open form. The Germans and the French for instance, were as : urc of the, inevitability of the Kai. er and Hitler wars as the 6 hip repair plant. To have it :old and moved away, would be an economic blow to city and port. And it would h a delight to the many whoiiave:'riever had any use for this community. B.C.
