Al- 'ready there are appedring those flaming crimson : masses on maple and sumach. In quieter tone ss : the wild purple asters adorn deserted pastures, "and the golden rod covers. acres of shrinking grass, In upstanding squares are acres of tasseled corn of varying greens and tawny shades, while here and there may be seen pumpkins' in their bright yellow coats, ~~ A few straggling buckwheat fields, tooking like acres of ground coffee, lend a somber tone to the --countryside, with alternating plowed fields in Y= lighter shades. Frequently there comes into view the vivid green of young fall wheat. ' Great patches of turnips, mangolds, and cabbage in varying shades of darker green add to the many color tones of the. panorama of ripening nature, Such are the colors that-autumn uses to paint . her great picture--a beautiful prelude to winter. red : THE "FOREIGNERS" When a former resident of a foreign country comes to make his home in Canada, we should 7 take it for granted that he has decided to become [ "ong of us." To treat him with suspicion and i neglect plays into the hands of our enemies, . As a neighbour and as a citizen he has a right "to expect our friendliness. will be strange to us, and it will be difficult to * understand what he has to say. But all that will - gradually disappear under the J lense of neigh- borly friendliness. Much of -fear has been xpisared as to the danger' of lafge "foreign" population in the West. If 'such a danger: does exist some of the blame .must rest with the native born Canadians. th while to help defend Canada as their home land? ) Treating these people with neglect and sus- picion is certainly not the way to make them good "Canadian citizens. = Imagine what would "= happen-to any of us (treated as foreigners) if a - - our neighbors were 'neglectful and suspicious, | Should we not readily become sympathetic with \ br the people who were friendly? And 'if those id : friendly people spoke against Canada and the Canadians it is not likely- we should care much, The missionaries of the various churches have "done fine" work along the lines of friendliness ny | With new Canadians. But their effort has been ei: pitifully small _in'comparison with the immensity of the task that faced them, ' of the great need of that particular kind of work. = Canadians .will certainly have to grow used to > the presence of "foreigners" in this country. .They{must -undesstand, too, that kindly 'treat- ment of these people is the cheapest form 'of de- it ~~. fence: against' any "foreign" uprising, large or - small, Our own ¢ommunity in Port Perry and Vicinity . has a growing population of these people. As a rule they are hard working, law abiding citizens. They frequently make gaod on farms that have - ~ formerly been considered worthless, Naturally his ways What have they done to make these new Canadian citi- - zens feel at home, and feel that it would be worth' It is hard to under- - stand why missionary support is so scant in- view wf of others, _ Sonte concerted effort should be made by the churches and welfare organizations to keep m touch with these comparative strangers, giving a helping hand where necessary. It would be an excellent thing if steps were taken to render the learning of the English language an easy and pleasant task for them, Canada is:only just beginning to absorb these new Canadians, They will be coming here year after 'year -by thousands. It will be our biggest task to preserve Canadian unity in face of this influx. A return to the old neighborliness will be the best road to travel in view of the probable de. velopment of the next twenty-five years. bod SCARCELY BELIEVABLE! Selfishness and bullying are not confined to em- ployers. In "Liberty" of September 2nd, there . appears an article--"Rackateering at the World's Fair" that presents the other side of the picture most dramatically." Under organized labor "conditions contractors have to sign a most binding agreement including this clause; Example B. "The contractor shall not have work performed or libor or material employed in the carrying out of this contract that would in any way cause or result in a suspension or delay of or strike upon the work to be performed hereunder on any of the trades working in or about the premises here- in described, or in or about any other building of the Board, or working upon any of the premises of the City of New York, , ., This clause in any contract practically and ef- fectively excludes any contractor pnd the pre- ducts of any manufacturer that the union wants to exclude; In fact, the unions do not need to go on strike; all they need do is notify the_city of- ficials that they will or even might strike, and the 'contractor would lose the work and the manu- facturer be boycotted, How effective this has been is evident from the following testimony. The representatives of the General Electric Company testified 'that their sales of switchboards and panel boards in the _ New York area-dropped from $476,000 in 1930 to $197 in 1937. In 1987 the General Electric Com- , pang bid on $217,667 worth of switchboard and a panel-board equipment for installation in New York and sold only $197 worth--less than 1 per cent. Westinghouse reported that their sales of the same equipment to New York contractors dropped from $244,000 in 1932, to about $8,000 in 1937, y Both these companies had signed C.1.0, agree- ments during the intervening years, and there- fore their equipment had to: be kiiocked down, un- wired, rewired, and set up again before it could "be installed in New York by a contractor ac- ceptable to the union." It is a far ery from the days when capital ran sweat-shops to the day when "Liberty's" picture of labor conditions in New York could be possible. . The great lesson that both capital and labor _ ~ must learn is that those who set themselves up as leaders in either camp are responsible for the wel- fare of all. That may sound like a foolish -bit of idealism, But after all, it is never the proper business of the man in power to use that power brutally for his own gain and for the Sedrihon 3 : "MANCHESTER MYRTLE MARSH HILL PORT PERRY STAR PORT PERRY, ONTARIO, THURSDAY, OCTOBER 5th, 1939 + ENEMIES OF GOD "Reprinted from "The Globe and Mail" The poignant grief of His Holiness Pope Pius, as he sooght - cheer and comfort for a deputation of mourning Poles,- brings the war home particularly to the 700,000,000 'Christian be- lievers of the world, of whom half recognize the Pontiff as their spiritual head, He left no doubt as to the significance of this monstrous 'assault on weaker nations by two pagan dictators; no doubt as to the issue.or the result Destroyed by 'enemies of God" ,--not simply atheists ovr: unbellivers; but the militant forees of antichrist--he declared "Poland wiil live" by the triumph of justice and mercy. lis Holiness has proclaimed his abiding faith in the fundamental basis of righteousness. It is a sum- "mons to the world--Catholic and Protestant alike. { i * * . - The term *'enemies of God" pointedly defines_this newly risen dual-headed menace to peace "and civilization--nazism, which eschews Christ, and invokes the gods of pagan eras; communism, which ridicules religion as 'the opiate of the people."' These are the powers of "darkness which united. to sweep into their barbaric nets 24,000,000 Roman Catholic Poles, 3,600,000 Jews, and 7,000,000 otners. ~The slaughter of tens of thousands hepsless women and children, the plundering of lands and levelling of cities, are the outward sign of linhuman'brutality. - This war wrenches the soul of a people from the only anchor of "a worthwhile life. It drives them into the tents of pagan ieologies as the price of defeat. They must renounce their faith to the Nazis and Communists. Little wonder His Holiness wept over the desecration of civilization's most sacred pillar. - "Yet Poland is to live -- Both as a home and symbol of Christian faith. This is the firm declaration of the head of the Roman Catholic Church, as of the two nations which have made her integrity their cause.

It is an appeal to them no less than to the most-ardent followers of Roman Catholicism, Canada's millions of French-Canadians. :: It must touch deeply the 20.000,000 Roman Catholics in the United Staths overwhelmed by short-sighted propaganda that 'it is none of our concern.
