With the coronation in June, predictions are that the impending election will come in the early fall. Two themes ran through his talks: the desirability of giving support and encouragement to Britain and the contrast of two ways of life as seen in Berlin on his recent tour. The speaker had the rare opportunity of travelling in the Allied occupied zone and the Communist-ruled sector. The recovery in the western area was, he said, almost unbelievable. Beautfiul new stores and public buildings comparable to any in the world had risen where rubble once lay. Shops displaying goods of the best quality, theatres and opera enjoying pre-war stand- ards, a well dressed, cheerful looking population all combined to give one a sense of prosperity and hope for a bright future. In contrast, the Russian zone showed no effort to clear away mal Gathering the ruins; the only public buildings. were the head- quarters of the Communist patty the police offices and the Parlia- ment buildings. Shops, many ol them open only to select Commu- ist members, were stocked with inferior goods. 'Lhe renowned German soldier, acting in a dual roleofarmy and police, appeared slovenly, undisciplined and dis- interested. Desertions to the western zone were high. 'The industrial recovery through the western part of Germany, Mr. Drew said, was nothing short ot miraculous. Old factories have been rebuilt and new ones added until today production is consider- ably higher than the production of the whole of Germany prior to 1940. In Haileybury, where he was greeted at the Hotel Haileybury by nearly one hundred people, Mr. Drew gave an enlightening talk on Switzerland. In his closing remarks, he re- minded listeners of the many things which we in this great country have to bé thankful for on Thanksgiving Day.
