Living (Kiled I Action I Italy) The Problem of Keeping Winter Roads Open Legion Club Rooms Needed For Bowmanville In flic post war planning now about f0 be undertaken by the civiecammittee set up for that purpose, may we suggesf as ane of fixe most important items flie establishment of appropriate and comfortabie club rooms for the local Canadian Legion. The Legion is ini fact a service club of forèmosf import- ance across this nation. The kiud of work thiey are doing can bcecnvisaged from read- in-the series of articles which will appear in Te Satemanfrom Nweek ta w4ek caver- ing information for soldiers returning after service nflic present war. The articles in tliemselves are completely explanatory and showv ftle care and thouglif manifested by the Legion for brothers-in-arms. The Le- gion seeks means ta eradicate flic piffalls timat plaguied soldiers of tflifrsf great war and we ijelieve the press is obiigafed ta give fullest publicity ini fli matters presenfed. Membership in flic Legion is open toa ai who have w-rn the King 's uniform. Tt is a club for those who have souglif ta give the greaf est in service and sacrifice for the na- tion 's security and as such shouid have pre- cedence in local and national support. But in al fao many cases ifs members, particu- Iariv in flic smaller communities. have had f0 meet in make-shift halls with omly fleicnca- gre comforfs anid conveniences thaf accrue from smail membership fees and the ma- jority of "old sweats" are none fao well blessed with money. Poppy Day funds are earmarked for general Legion services. En- thusiasmn for soldiers runs hig-h while dan- gIer lasts. When the shooting stops if vcry quickly cools. Sa w-hile wve are cheering is the time ta fake aietion regarding club rooms '"fit for heroes fa foregather" wvhen thex- gef back from flice vars. They have forg-ed a fellow'ship in common danger thaf they will wish fao keep alive. Their wish sliouid be respected. In several centres, philauthropisfs have provided debf free furnished club rooms which attracf large memberships. Men back from fhis w-ar find flierein a comfort and a welcome mot found in flic smaller Le- gion commands. W~e believe an obligation rests upon the whole community ta devise plans for confortable Legion club rooms ia this district before flic very considerable number of our soldiers refurn home. We fhink fliey would welcome fhis for fliey will wanf fa meef and "chui" about their cx- periences and take flicir plac'es as active members of flic Legiouî. This suggestion w-e believe will have flic attention of flic local rehabulitationi cammiffce ear]y in 1945. People have again dcmonstrated fliat public opinion can oniy b-c effecfively aroused flirougli fli advemît of some erisis. If was truc when war broke, and now we sece if again when roads and street s are blocked by an unusually lieavy snow- fali. Ail muni- cipalifies in old Ontario are Up ag-ainsf ifta keep fraffie moving and few are prepared adcquafely f0 cape with flic situation. The inunicipalities of bath Bowmanville and Darliugton have moved in flic direction of doing sometlîing about if. The latter lias carried by a heavy majority a demand that snow plowing on countrv roads bce under- taken. The Towrn Council las decreed thaf sidewalks must be kepf open. Now people are asking, "eau ah fibis be donc and will the Councils fry ta carry ouftflic plan?" From listening fa opinions of wîshfiil thinkers and hard-headed reaiisf s we sift these conclusions. Sa far as tlie Town is concerncd fthe scheme eau be made effective and people expeef ifs fulfilment., But tbe Township is anoflier maffer eut ireiy. To open ail roads requires proper machinery or _haùkd shovcling or a combination of bath and neither are available at ftle moment. The eeve and Council, if tliey attcmpf fo legis. ate according ta flic referendum, are str efly up against if. If fhey aftempt ta open fthe roads there musf be -no favoritism or ouf fhey go at flic next election. If fiiey starf af ail fhcy musf serve ail from flic ~Lake f0 Cartwright and from Clarke ta flic Town Line on flic West.

To buy machinery would C% be an overhead ini capital cquipment thaf *~would largely lie idie, save in wimters such as this. The cosf would mun into rnany j~thousands of dollars. Opinion of expermene- e d Councilmemi is fliat if flic costs were enu- meratcd in1 fli referendum if would nof have carricd. As flic matter stands, fthe rat cpaycrs are committf d fa flic plan but theCouncii is not - at least nof until flic matfer cames up for decmsion.

Let us get righf back fo David Lewis's "practical" politics wherejn he showed himself more interested "in winning an election" than in ultimafe socialism. That, at leasf according to his own account, is the way his atti- tude was judged by a critical fellow-delegate. In the CCF's Regina Manifesto of 1933 which is-no escap- ing it-the parfy's real platform, fhey declare for "a planned and socialized economy in which our naturai resources and the principal means of production and distribution are owned, controlled and opcrated by the people." At the vcry end af the Manifesto these words'appear. "'No COF government will rest content unfil if has eradicated capitalism and put into operation the full pro- gram of socialized planning which wiii iead f0 the establish- ment in Canada of the Co-operative Commonwealth." Nothing ambîguous about that at ail. But ever since it was wriffen it bas appeared f0, be a trifle too blunt for those wifhin the CCF party who wlsh to "win elections." They have tried their hands at re-writing it from time to time to soften ifs effect but if is stili on the record. In 1935 the socialist authors of "Social Planning for Canada" came out and said: "Socialization of certain key functions and basic in- dustries wvhich are of sfrafegic importance in the operation of the economy as a whole. With the key functions within its control a socialisf govcrnment can achieve a sufficient socialization of economic life even though a number of in- dividual industries stili remain in private hands, as may be, in some cases, highly desirable." That was the first watering down 0fithe ~'ultimate social- ism" of the. Manifesto. Apparenfly this did not go over quite so well with the more rambunctious leff-wingers in the parfy. So a new book was published, "Make This Your Canada" by David Lewis and Frank Scott, which evaded defining "socializa- tion" but sought instead fo blur fthc edges. Speaking of the CCF party, it says: "It was not a party seeking only to patch up the exist- ing system as many af its predecessors had been. It aimed at a fundamental reconstruction of society." Well now, after ail this pussy-footing, Mr. Lewis comes along to the convention in Montreal, anxious, as hie says, "to win an election." He presents this resolutian: "The socialization and democratic control under either public or co-operative ownership of key industries which are monapalistic in operation, in order to free the Canadian economy from the domination and restrictive practices of monapaiy control and to make possible national planning for maximum production." In a few minutes we are going ta ask our readers f0 match the above resolution againsf what was fînally adopted. In the meantime we invite our readers ta note from the abave resolution that "co-operative ownership" is introduced for the very first time as an alternative ta public ownership. In other words, co-aperative awnership and public ownership are for the first time given equal rank as "sacializafion." This is samething that wll bear watching in the near futurn, particu. larly in view of the fact that co-operatives pay no income tax. Messrs. Winch and Cameron-Winch is the CCF leader in B.C. and Cameron was the chairman of flic Montreal con- ventian-objected strangly to the restriction of socialization ta "key industries which are monopolistic in operation." They claimed that the section did not go far enough and that many industries which would nat came under the scope of this section oughfta be socialized as soon as passible. If was at this point that Mr. Lewis, evidently cautiaus about scaring the voters with too big a dose of socialism ail at once, made a statement which indicated that lie was more interested in winning an election than in pushing farward the party's policy of ultimaf e, complete soaialism. He lias since denied making the direct statement that lie was "interested in winning an clection," but the impression hie conveyed was unmistakable, regardless of the words lie declares hie did not use. Keeping in mnd flic resolution originally offered, here is the way if came through the mill-and there's quite a differ- ence: "The sacialization and democratic control, under either public or co-aperative ownership, of industries which are monopolistic in character or which are being operated to the detriment of the Canadian people." Note the words in black face type. There speaks the dictatar. Mr. Coldwell stressed them in bis radio speech on December 2th. This is dictatarship at its worst. Who is ta be the judge and what is ta be the criferion as ta whether a business is operated "ta the detriment of the Canadian people"? If yau run a gracery store, the CCF might stigmafize the mere making of profit as "detrimental ta the Canadian people" and put yau ouf of business. It doesn't matter how many times the phrasing has been fwisted since the Regina Manifesta nar how badly the pliras- ing is fwisted again by the CCF, the intention is the saine in the ultimafe-ta wipe ouf the present system of free enter- prise and ta substifufe a controlled, regimented, regulated sys- temn which is comparable ta the worsf ecanomic dictaforships on record.

Ail seven were prosti- tuting necessary military censor- ship to further certain political interests which might have suf- fered had the free press been al- lawed to function. Our Part of the World Haà Been kept in darkness about the EAM or Greek Liberation Movement. Its armed force is called the ELAS. It has an enroiled mem- bership of over two million. It has its own national assembly made Up of mon and women duly elected by mass vote in each lo- caiity. Contrary to insinuation and siand er it is not Communist. The percentage of socialists in it is F about the same as in the present British government. It includes everything fram boy and girl guerrilla fighters f0 bishops and archbishops. Granted a really free and fair election there is little reason to doubt that EAM will emerge as the government of Greece. Had the Allies frankly faced that facf when the 13 leading army and navy officers "mutinied" lasf March we would have been spar- ed slaughfer which will leave scars for decades.

But flic fime ta apply freedom af flic press is now.
