TIME FOR DECISION NEW SERIES, ARTICLE 32 The preceding article in this series told how for more than a year, John Bracké?i, leader of the officiai opposition ini the House of Commons, the Progressive Conservative Party, had tirne and again urged the Mackenzie King government to wake up and take a strong stand against Russian Communism as the mast important step ta secuie peace in the world. He urged that we must have a stable world ta permit great national expansion in Canada. POLICY LACKS FORCE But it was only a few days ago that the government annaunced a new foreign policy and it is far fromn what it ought to be. It states fine principles and a stronger stand but leaves the moans of backing up that stand completely ini the air. The Minister of National Defence didn't even speak ini the debate. Sa we appear flot to be asked ta increase our armed strength and mere words are not good enough. Thot is not the status envisioned by oh Brck n.DRIFT TO TWO WORLDS The position he took more than a year ago was this: The subject uppermost in the minds of Canadians is ta secure a lasting peace in order that we can build a greater. wealthier and a stranger Canada. Wo are drifting into two worlds, one Commun- ist, the other free Democracies. We have been gesturing, back- tracki'ng, ternparizing while Communism is advancing almost un- opposed. We can no longer sit on the fence. We must speak plainly and back it up. UNITED FRONT Canada con show strong leadership and the will of the Canadian people. A strang united front among the free democra- cies can force the other half-world of Communism ta choose to ca-operate with us on a reciprocal hasis. We have been outwitted by Russia and will continue ta ho autwilted until we came ta match thoir realism. We know the folly of appeasement from dealing with Hitler. Let's quit fooling ourselves in that direction. LEADER AND STATESMAN That is the kind of talk that John Bracken has been put- ting forward since the shooting war stopped. That is the kind of tolk that Canadions will opprove. The language and spirit marks Bracken as a leader and a statesman. His 21 years of undefeoted administration as Premier af Manitoba developed bis far-seeing ability ta see realities and. develop strong policies. Looking ahead, calculating indicoted maves prepared him ta remain the only head ai gavernment ta survive the depression. FORCED HOUSE DEBATE Now ho hrings these abilities and lAigh experience into the federal field in preparatian for becoming the next Prime Minister af Canada. His persistent campaign ta force thxe gov- ernment ta deal realistically with foreign affoirs was climaxed by his adjournment ai the House ta debate the issue. As a result the government acted ta îoy dawn some semblance af a policy. But it is flot yet good enough and Mr. Bracken will continue ta press the question right through ta a conclusion as the next Prime Minister. A very WEARY LEADER A eysignificant thing was said by Mackenzie King on Saturday, May 8, in Montreal. Ho canfessed ta ,his followers: "I have lingered taa long." No one knows who will take over his party leadership at the moment. Certainly not one af bis followers have had the long experience as head ai a government thon bas John Brocken. The timne is approaching for the electorate ta vote him inta power. His whole record is before the people, bath past and present. Few con dispute that this in ca Time for Decision.

J. S. Dyen. It carried with it the appreciation and thanks of the membens for the in- terest and indefatigable work of Mr. Dyer in making possible the e xceedingly excellent progr-a m o)resented under the auspices of the choir. The president of the choir, Mn. Wilbur Baskerville, in a very neat little speech which accompanied the gift, spoke of the high esteem and affection in which Mr. Dy' er is held, and that the çtift carried with it the love and best wishes of the choir mcm- bers.
