A further consolidation lries was sought under a bill ta set up a governmrent propagande bureau -known as the Canadian Informa- tion Service, which fortunately owing ta demands ai the opposi- tion was shelved for the trne be- ing. A feeling ai uneasiness is growing up in the country as these trends become apparent. Personal Problem The speaker declared that mea- sures of this kind are wrong. Test it out; ask yourseli this question: -Do I want ta be directed and reg- imented by the goverfiment or do I want ta run rny own show?" *Fighting over the issue the gov- erfiment and the C.C.T. group have generally lined up together while the Progressive Conserva- tives and Social Credit party have opposed them.

Summing Up the physirai facts af military and diplomatic strength the speaker reienred ta two other points af Russian en- deavor to create worhd chaos, the establishment ai a strang central German government designed ta recreate a status irom which we have just escaped and atomic en- ergy contraI.

A committee, headed by Jack Hilton, president ai the Young Progressive Conservative Associ- ation ai Ontario, bas arranged an extensive pragram for the sessions ta b. held morning, aiternoon and evening. Feature ai the meeting wihl be an address by Premier George Drew, wbo will be on hand fan mast ai the four-day session., Many cabinet ministers and sev- eral fedenal membens will also take part in the proceedings. Ruasians Ov.radd Major in Mmacar« Stat.. in Addrose Ma lgatajoint meeting of MasnleLedesini Oshawa, June 10_ Major James R. MacBrien, Oshawa barrister and Ontario County Progressive Conservative standard bearer ln the last feder- ai election, outlined some ai the factors surrounding efforts ta achieve warld stability today. DeAhing with bis subject, "Vic- tory in Peacée" be went very fully into the question ai Russia. He intraduced an entirely new thougbt by asserting that Rus- sian strengtb was on the dechine despite imperialistic inroads in Central Europe highighted by the recent Communistic coup d'- etat in Hungary. Presenting a carefully reasoned 20-point thesis, Major MacBrlen drew on personal expenience as an officer with the ImperiaIs in the Airican Campaign in the late war and bis contafts with informed observers on bis recent visit over- seas. This report will attempt brieily ta summarize the main statements af fact set forth. Retreat lns Persia First ta be noted was Russian retraction at the time ai the Per- sian recapture ai the province af Azerbijan. When the Persians started ta march tbey were war 'n- ed by the Russian Ambassador that four Russian divisions would oppose by force any Persian pen- etration. It was a 48-bour ulti- matum. The Persians advanced steadily and soon resumed con- trai over this part ai their na- tional doinain. Tbe ussans fail- ed ta march and a few days later their Ambassador gave official assurance that it was merely a misunderstanding. It was a clear case ai a weak bluff. Russian penetration ai Czecho- Siovakia on the. industriai front was another example. In the matter aif getting release ai a scientist employed in a Czech in- dustry. for work abroad it was found that an appraach could b. made only by getting around pal- itically appointed managers. Oth- erwise the sought aiter man might become suspect and re- moved ta Siberia. Here again the direct influence ai Russia was decreasing for it can be circum- ocratlc freédom and ta about-face fram a policy of appeasement. flefeat Communlsm The. pronauncement af Secre- tai-y Mai-shail at the Moscow can- ference with.bis six-point defence af freedom was a iorthr!ght dec- laration that cleanly deflned the stand af the democracies as appas- ed ta Russian imperialism. The speaker suggested therefore, that in these developing circumstances, we bave little ta fear, pbysically at ieast, from a Russia sbawing weakness militarily, diplomatic- alhy, and neyer strong on the ec- onomic iront. The speaker suggested that the main thing we now have ta watch is ideological penetration, the de- termined infiltration into aur own saciety ai cammunists. That this 'tbreat is reai bas been shown in spy trials. Beiieving that ta out- law this type ai sabotage would b. a sign ai weakness, the speaker advanced some fundamental prin- ciples we can apply aside from normal application ai aur cnim- mnal code. Moral Rearmament Major MacBrien developed the thesis that aur main defence against aggression ai the kind un- der discussion was moral rearm- ament ai the individual, the home and the state. Quatin-g irom Charles Merivaie's "History ai Rame" he traced the parahlel of the experience following the death ai Caesar with aur own ta- day. His dehineation ai bistory recapturing the tinherent moral strength ai the family circle. For this unit basically was the. strength ai the state, and its foun- dation the moral -doctrine ai the Christian Church. Concluding, the speaker aff$rm- ed that if the United Nations Or- g4nization is ta succeed it must be prajected as a vital force into the daily lives ai those it was creat- ed ta serve. He emphâsized two main points in summing up his strong address: "War with Rus- sia is not inevitable if we but real- ize aur comparatively greater strength and work ta break clown Russia's suspicions ai us and through a far better exchange ai information, convince ber aur one desire is Peace. The means ta this end is a truc spiritual rebirth within ourselves.
