Local Rotary Club Receives Banner f rom Sydney, Australia At a recent meeting of the Ro- tary Club Col. Lamne T. McLaugh- lin, D.S.O. with 2 bars and C.M.G., presented ta the Bowmanville Ro- tary Club a banner given him by the Rotary Club of Sydney, Aus- tralia, when he attending a meet- ing of that Club on bis visit ta the South Seas iast winter. It is custamary for many Ro- tary Clubs throughout the world ta give tokens of their feeling a! association ta the other clubs. Dr. Cy Slemon brought back witb bis hast summen a banner given hlm by the West Harthepool Club, Eng- land. Thetwo banners are on display in the Rotary Club room at the Balmoral Hotel. The wording on the Sydney banner is "The Rotary Club of Sydney, Australia". The Return of The Red Dean (By R. J. Deachman) The Red Dean bas been in Otta wa. To give bim bis due I sbouhc refer ta him as The Very Reverenc Hawlett Johnson, Dean o! Can terbury. He was with us beforc in November, 1948, if my memor3 serves me right, and it does, foi I have before me a story I wrotc about him at that date. Sa far a! that gentleman is concerned l have not changed my attitude to. wards him. He is a communist. He behieverý that freedom exists in Russia. Lei him put it ta the test. He shouhc ask bis friend, Stalin, if it woulc be possible for a Canadian oi Ameirican capitalists, either a mar of big business or a working mar ta go ta Russia, bine a hall and announce that he wouhd speak tbnaughout the week on "Capital- ism, the Basis o! Increased Pro- duction"? What would happen? The man who did that in Russia would simply disappear. el o The Red Dean wihhl l o that there is freedom of religion in Russia. Yes, but education is under the direction a! the State and the State teaches that re- ligion is a fake, on as the Com- munist puts' it, "Religion is the opiate of the people". How far does tbe Red Dean go out of Mos- cow on these trips? Not very fan. When he does he wilh not be per- mitted ta see the things he is not intended ta see even though the Russians must know that he is rather guillible, rather easily de- ceived. The Dean did flot tell us about the satellite states wbich have been bnought in frtum time ta time. Wbat did be tbink of the rape o! Czecboshovakîa? There was a county of intelligent people, living unden a free democnacy but Russia wound itself around that littie country as a python migbt do wvith its victim, s0 Czechosho- vakia became, in effect, a part of Russia. Why does Russia refuse ta per- mit the Russian wives cf British and American soldiers from leav- ng Russian and going ta their husbands? Russia must remain a closed state. The Russian people must neyer know what other countries are like. Here is a slav- ery on wbicb there falîs no ghe(am o! light-a place in which the in- quiring mind is sti!led, or poss- bly, in some cases becomes a slave af the state. The Red Dean told bis Ottawa audience about the atomic homb. T'he first use ta which it wouhd be put, in bis opinion, would be for an attack on Enghand. "That", he remarked, "wilh be the end of England". He did not say so but t might also be the end of Mos- cow. 1 wander if the Red Dean real]y believes that the democratic coun- ries, Bnitain, France, the United States and Canada really plan an ittack on Russia. The suggestion is penfectly ridiculous. These countries want ta be left alone. They are not anxious te secure moare ternitory. China bas latehy passed under the control of Rus- ia. Meanwhihe the United States vates millions ta provide food for the starving chinese.

Should a man o! the type o! the Red Dean be sbut out of Canada? I don't tbink so. His audience in Ottawa was by na means large. There are few wha took him ser- iously. There were ahi sorts of jokes about the meeting. Therd isn't tbe slightest need ta be fussy about sucb an event. The anly thing lb does is ta remind us of a tragedy. The real problem is this: why did Russia go wrong? If Russia had turned fram war ta peace as other nations did this would have been a different worhd. Russia, wibb the aid o! ather nations cou id have become a great agrb. cultural and industrial country simihar ta the United Stabeà. It xvould have been a richer, bappier world but Communism reaches for the souls of men. It cannat survive an open contact with a free Captisalism and so the des- pots came inta contrai. Their Power rests on thein capacity to close the door against the outside and keep the people in ignarance. Can this be cantinued over ýa long perîod of time? Can a great nation he kept in ignorance while the country is being industrializ- ed? I doubt it. The light will en- ter from contacts established in the process. In my article en- titled "The Red Dean", N.S. No. 17, November 11, 1948, 1 quoted this paragraph from Arnold J. Toynhee's "Study of -History"; it is still applicable: "The present rulers of Russia are working wîth demonic energy to ensure the triumph in Russia of the very civilization that they are denouncing in the world at large. No doubt they dream of creating a new society which will be Amn- enican in equipment but Russia in soul - though this is a strang e dream to be dreamed by states- men for whom a materialist inter- pretation of history is an article of faith! On Marxian principles we must, expect that, if a Russian peasant is taugbt to live the life of an American mechanic, be will learn ta think as the mechanie thinks, ta feel as he feels and ta desire what he desires. In th is tug of war which we are witness- ing in Russia between the iel of Lenin and the methads ocFr we ma 'v look forward ta see the ascendancy of the Western over the Russian Civilizatian paradox- ically confirmed".

L. wandered when listening ta him, as I had many times, why he was not pro- mated ta the Chairmansbip o! the Commissian, when the present appointee was announced as Chairman.. Of course he did not make a big noise an pound the table tny- ing ta show wbat a big guy be is, but one tbing sure he would bave done as welh as any one else, with bis years o! expenience, and poss- essing ability o! no mean order.

Huge Water Tank Taking -Shape Day by Day The machine $un rat-a-tat ,of rivetting hammers us now saund- ing through the otberwise stili air of Bowmanville. This is an indi- cation that the final stage of carn- struction of the buge water tank is in process. The band of steel circling the top af the tower just inside tl#c catwalk is ta be used as the foundation for the attachment of the remaining curved parts af the reservoir. Observers are daily craning their necks ta watch the individu- ai curved sections fitted neatly in between this band and the central column. The pipes leading ta and from the buib o! the reser- voir will jain the tankefromn with- in the central column. An automatie control will en- sure that when the water falîs be- low a certain level the pumnps will resume their activity ta fill the tank. The tail structure, nat long ago ugly because of its lack of sym- metry, has taken on a new digniity with the completion of the ver- tical framework. The tîghtened sway rads have given rigid strength ta the tower, ensuring that there wilI be no repetition of the coilapse which wbich occurr- ed not long ago an the soutbwest side. The reservair will prevent the loss of pressure in the north end of tawn when the heat of the sum- mer months starts to lower the water table.- *An even flow wili continue throughout the day.
