sgh: CanadaBacks Germany As A Calculated Risk "By DAVE MCINTOSH Canadian Press Staff Writer OTTAWA (CP)--Eight years af- ter | je collapse of Hitler's empire, | port West Germany has made a politi cal and economic recovery which o vers call a 'miracle." at is Canada's attitude now toward Germany after the billions of dollars and thousands of lives spent in helping to conquer her and in view of Germany's econo- mié revival and probable imminent reariiament? External affairs officials here sum up Canada's attitude in two words: "Calculated risk." CANADA'S VIEWS This is how they review Canada's views on the situation: " In the cold war, Germany oecu- pies a strategic position a thwart the European continent. It is far betier that she be, on the ans side on Russia's or a - ridden vacuum, easy Ea for Communist infiltration. One official put it this way: "We have to run two risks. One is 'that Germany's economie re- covery might be turned into an- other war machiné if the govern- ment fell into the hands of um- democratic forces, right or left. The other is that if Germany were allowed to languish without West- ern support she might fall into the Russian camp, either by default or design. In the present world situ- ation, we must obvi support Germany." NATIONALISTIC FORCES There are nationalistic forces in West Germany waiting for an op- unity to wreck Chancellor Kon- rad Adenauer's democratie govern- ment. Such forces are present in most countries, but the danger can be considered greater in Germany because of past experience. This dapger would be still greater if West Germany had no links with the West. Another official said: "Democracy is in the asendancy now. If we can really strengthen the bonds between democratic for- ces in Germany and Western de- mocracies, there is less likelihood of democracy in Germany being overturned or of Germany going off the rails again." Canada is playing a small part to this end. It has taken 101,492 immigrants of German origin since 1046 and the government is study- 'ing proposals to increase the flow. The 27th Infantry Brigade and two RCAF wings in Germany are a physical assurance that Canada su Western European, in- cluding German, defence against the Communist threat. The Bonn government has rati- fied the European Defence Cdm- ity. It isn't in force because similar action has not yet been taken by France, Italy, Belgium, the Netherlands and Luxembourg. The Allies have said, and Canada supported the view, that EDC must be working before Germany is Put Mail Into The Atlantic LONDON (AP)--Britain is turn- ing to the mails in the campaign against - oil-polTuted beaches, scourge of oceanside resorts.

The beaver gnawed part ay through a poplar tree near of here, a ay strong blew it down. As it fell, it sna a hydro line and set the woods on fire. 'a resurgence of Sparrow lake, 15 miles | freed from her occupation status. The Soviet threat would appear to make German rearmament inevit- able and the United States is re- ported pressing for EDC ratifica- tion by all countries concerned. MILITARY RISK EDC would allow Germany to create 12 active divisions to form Army. EDC is designed to prevent psd militar- ism but there is the risk that with these 12 divisions Germany might become the core of a new military machine under eontrol of the old officer corps. And the Ruhr, now going full blast again, could be yuickly converted almost entirel to tank, gun, aircraft and ammuni- tion production if the government fell into the wrong hands. Thus Adenauer's election victory last month was hailed by the West The Canadian government said the victory endorsed the chancellor's westward-looking policies and eatly strengthened parliamentary lemocracy. But the risks in" Germany re- main large, officials say. However, they would be ater still if Ger- many were neither democratic nor on the West's side. part of a supra-national European |P SIMCOE HALL THURSDAY, NOVEMBER § Weight Lifting Club, 7.30 to. 10 p.m. Litle Theatre Rehearsal, 7.30 p.m YWCA Badminton Club, 8 to 10 p.m. FRIDAY, NOVEMBER § Nursery School, 9 to 11.30 a.m. Children 5 years of age.
