PRINCE RUPERT - BRITISH COLUMBIA Published Every Afternoon, Except Sunday, by Prince Rupert Dally News, Limited, Third Avenue H. P. PULLEN Managing-Editor The Case Of Bulgaria - - . Bulgaria joins the list of nations forced to submit to Hitler either by duress or force, certainly not by choice, 'Like Czechoslovakia, Hungary, Poland, 'Denmark, Norway, Holland, Belgium, France, Rumania and the rest q say nothing of poor misguided Italy The Bulgars will jibw co-operate with Germany while hoping for Great Bri-tnih to win. The reason is, of course, obvious. Bulgaria! if more fearful of what Germany will do to her in the - meantime if she fails to co-operate than what Great Bri-tain will do in the course of fighting the war. And, after .jwhthe war is over and Great Britain wins, she knows she will get a square deal. ; This is the condition that places the diplomacy of the I fair-dealing democracies at a disadvantage with the du- j plcity and menace of the ruthless dictatorships whose sole object is to gain their ends by fair means or foul. It is the rule of fear or force, lying and double-dealing. Certainly Bulgaria must .know from the experiences of the others : that any undertakings Hitler may have made to her will be respected only so long as it does not interfere with the Fuehrer's program of aggression and his lust for con- : quest. It is just another illustration of what mio-ht eventu ally happen to Canada and the United States unless Hit ler is stopped before he has connuered all else. The obvious aim of the Nazi drive through the Balkans is, of course, to strike at Great Britain in the Mediterranean area. All intervening events are merely incidental to that aim. If Turkey and Greece hold out, they will, doubtless, be attacked. It is useless to think otherwise. " That is why Great Britain is rushing to the aid of these nations and it is why we here in this country should ;f$ everything we can now in aiding Great Britain through .supporting our own government in its war effort. Efficiency In War v ' In spite of .criticisms, the federal Dftnartmonf nf Muni , lions and Supply is, doubtless, fully alive to. the necessity of increased efficiency in Canada's production of the sinews Of war, , Even here in Prince Rupert we may become restless at times and wonder why this and why that is not ueiiiK uone. In changing the country from, a peace time easy-go ingba.sls to the hard-working was status, a great deafof - organization is reouired. The ministers themselvpo nv-p ; doubtless, doing all in their power to find and rectify the ( ;wHea)f spots. They, we are confident, are as anxious as we 1 to win this war and critiq'sm will be welcomed by them, no ' matter whence it emanates. It is a low and unpatriotic reasons to take advantage jof and embarrass the situation. HiurLunaiejy cnai appears 10 oe tne object of some.
