Observer Editor Taken for a Ride By Communists The temptation is great but The Financial Post hesitates to say, "We told you so," to Rev. Dr. A. J. Wilson, editor off the United Church official organ. the Ob- server. Belatedly, Dr. Wilson found out he was taken for a ride along the road to, Moscow when he signed the "Peace Petition" now being circulated by the'Reds in Canada and every non-Com- munist country in the world. Dr. Wilson isn't the only church- man who didn't investigate be- fore loaning the Reds his good name, or wha ignored warnings in the press tram ±nany publie men including the Prime Min- ister. The Communists dlaim 75 clergymen have signed up. But because of the position he holds, Dr. Wilson was their prize~ "catch." The minute they got his name on the dotted line, the Reds slap- ped his picture into, a three-quar- ter page layout in the official Communist mreekly. the Tribune. He was featured along with two, other prominent Toronto United Churchmen, the Rev. Croslev Hun- ter and the Rev. Gordon Domm. Domm's Bathurst Street United Church is a gathering place often used by Communist front move- ments. To Dr. Wilson's credit, wheni he found he'd been duped, he pub- Licly admitted il. In a leading edi- tonial in the current issue of the Observer, he says h. signed the Stockholm petîtion in good faith. rhen he attended the Toronto meeting of the Central Commit- tee of the World Council of Chur- ches. That august body warned all church members the world over that the Stockholm Appeal "must be regarded as a strategy of propaganda raîher than a gen- uine, peace proposai." "With that judgment I am, in th. light of my experience, in fuIl accord," writes Dr. Wilson. "Had Iknown of the tie-up between petitioners and the Communists, vhich hurried publication of my ticture in th. Tribune and th. ubsequent news release have es- ablished beyond a shadow of at doubt, 1 would certainly have hadj .othing whatsoever to do with il." It's to be hoped Dr. Wilson's experience will be a lesson to oth- r good men of the church who re still giving aid and comfortc t the Communists by signing the phony "Peace Petition." Min- iters off the church particularly t ave a special responsibililv.c Where they lead, so me others fol-t lw.

AN APPEAL TO REASON By Joseph Lister Rutledge t W. do not know whernce corne 7thie funds for bhe columo-long ad- vertisements that appeared daily in newspapers on the aulhority of the Toronto Peace Council. W. do not dispute the right of the couneil to advertise its appeal. W. do not dispute the possible good intent of some of ils mem- bers. But we do grow tired of the Men of God who have lost so much confidence that they do not ask His Guidance but assert their own. The council's petition seemns innocent enough. It calîs for the banning of atomic weapons. There would be less disagreement wibh this idea if il were possible to make such a ban effective. How can that be, short of war? We can legislate that dynamiting a safe is illegal. AIl right-thinking men are opposed to it. We have so legislated, but we haven't stopped safe-cracking. We have only been able, somelimes, 10 punish the offender after the of- fence. Todav we ai-e faced witb an out- law cnced'thab assumes that op- portunity is law. We know the holders of that creed share with us the knowiedge of atomic wea- pons. We do flot think we are being one-sided in urging thal if there is a sense of moral respon- sibility remaining in the world it exists more with us than it does tînder communism. Every manifestation of a will 10 restore a world, to give it more freedom, more benefits and safeguards cornes fnom the democratic peoples. Every manifestation of a will to enslave the world to dominate and use its peoples, and 1.to delay and prevent the return 10 pepce, stems frôm the world of communism. Every obstacle that crafty minds can invent and unscrupulously use has been di- rected to the delaying and defy- ing of those who, sometimes mis- takenly, but with honest intent, have worked and sacrificed for peace. Communism knows well il can have no war witbout itself being the aggressor. But must we, at the urging of befuddled bu- manitanians, hand our most po- lent weapons 10 the gangster amnong the nations'? The potential horror of atomnic war is a powerful argument, but not the only one. Years ago, Ad. miral Mahan, the great autbority of the United States Navy, enun- ciated a principle of war that is powerfully applicable. It was the theory of "the fleet in bein,,." Thal was, that the mere existence ofa fleet, in a given localit 'v and without a blow being struck, automalically immobilized at least as large an enemy fleet. All men of good will must hope that thie atomie weapon will neyer again be used. But we hnow vcry well thal our best hope, our best se- curity is to keep orr eapons, bright. To do wbat the Rcv. Jas. G. Endicott urges, speaking both 'or the Toronto Peace Couincil and the Canadian Peace Congrcss. is to arm our enerny twice, by dis- armring ourselves. They would eave us only the melancholv sat- sfaction of branding as " -war -niminal" the power that had de- 'ealed and destroyed us.

He man- aged to get the license number of an offender while the latter escaped the premises and with Canadian ingenuity he looked up the car owner's namne at 1h. hi- cense bureau. Come Sunday, the farmen pack- ed a picnic lunch, bundled his Iwife and children into the family car and chugged off to town and the home of the farm field offend- er. They %ad a grand picnic on the well-kepl lawns of the of- fender's home while he and his family were probably out mess- ing up anoîher farmer's field. Naturally, when the farm fam- ily finished their picnic, they didn'l bother to dlean up the well- kept lawn and ganden. It was in a disgraceful shape, the same way the farmer's field had been left the Sunday before.
