Communism is frequently de- scribed as an "inverted capital- ism." Nowhere, perhaps, is this more apparent than in its ap- proach to agriculture. We are apt. to think of Communism as only an industrial cancer because, so far as North America is concern- ed, it has made its strongest: ap- peal to industrial workers. But Communism in Eastern Europe is directed in a very large degree to agricultural workers. Since it must suppress any notion of private property and still keep men on the soil, it plays up modern meth- ods in every way known to prop- aganda. As a're5ult. the affinity of its agricultuml aims and meth- ods to those of an extreme capi- ialist agriculture are only too ap- parent.

There is a capitalist agriculture. It is marked by such characteris- tics as the following: It is an agriculture based primarily on the principle of highest immed- iate profits. It tends to support the exclusive. or almost exclusive, cultivation of a single crop. In this it is no different from indus- trial capltslism, because it de- pends upon the "gamblers in- stinct" for its success. and relies very heavily upon the methods of mechanical efficiency. In any case, the "paying-crop" is its ul- timate criterion. Capitalist agri- culture invarlably emphasizes re- duced cost of production through complete mechanization of every aspect of farming.

It would be ridiculous to describe all these aspects of capitalist agriculture as bad. But they have certain evil effects. Economically they promote large profits for i.he.successfui gambler and thus contribute . to the disastrous cycle of booms and depres- sions. They also promoie a reckless exploitation of the land. Lack of personal attachment to the soil, the separation of personal interests from the interests of the farm, unfounded confidence in mechanical devices for renewing fertility, lie behind the growing losses of arable land by erosion and neglect.

"Now there is also a colleclivlst agriculture, which has the sup- port of Communlstic govern- ments. From Finland to Albania ii. is in full operation, and great efforts are being made to intro- duce it elsewhere on a large scale. In many ways it parallels and parodies capitalist agriculture. It is based, primarily, not so much on maximum profits, but upon maximum yield. It seeks, not as much money as possible, but as much material crop as possible. Therefore, like capitalist agri- culture, it favors the single-cmp principle, a high degree of mech- anization, and appeals strongly to the gambling instinct. It also emphasizes speed maximum yields in minimum time and thus is generally born with the inauguration of some five year plan.

Collectivlst agriculture is invari- ably knit. into some political ideo- logy. The increase in yield. which must follow its introduction into a country. is always shown to be of political significance. The ad- Vances of modern science are ex- ploited for political ends. But apart from its political angles, this kind of farming runs the same risks as its capitalist coun- terpart. It is fast destroying the lend itself, and is destroying with it the producer's personal inter- est in his work.

The older type of farming is

dispsraglngly called peasant agri- culture. Indeed, it was no unmiti- gated blessing. Far too often it 'hss involved the enslavement of people and was used to perpetuate many a social evil. Yet it was not entirely bad. It was an agricul- tural system that had absorbed some sound principles from Chris- than faith. It was, for example, wedded to the notion of love of soil for its own sake. its welfare de- peiided. loo, upon the welfare of the family as an essentially im- portant social unit. It was devoted to the cultivation of multiple crops corresponding to the im- mediate need of those living on the land. It is only too easy to try to dis- sociate agriculture from virtues like these. But we cannot do so without serious detriment to agri- culture itself. Take attachment to the soil as one example. in many Ways. it is close to the soul of western culture and is most es- sential for human welfare. We are told of a nomadic people who once inhabited the more barren areas of southern France, who mew strong and prosperous on a mere pittance of soil. They used to carry it with them from place to place. wherever they stopped they put it down and raised a crop. when they moved on, they gath- ered lt up, treated it, fertilized it and carried it on to char next m- ltion. No doubt we have here to do with an extravagant illustration, but it serves to remind us that our civilisation has grown by the csreful husbsndlng of nature's resources.

Thoughts For OEF T1131? ?

By His Eminence Cardinal McGuigon (C0lll'T18hti

Now such airpititude is quite Christian. It seems not only God's goodness and bounty but His very image in His every gift. and in His gift of soil no less than others. Newer methods, for all their on- vious advance over those of the pest, show a fearful forgetfulriess of this sound principle, and we are the poorer for it. It is no won- der that serlous-nilnded men are now dlscusslngtthe possibility of world famine. William Vogt's book. ”'I'he Road to -Survival." shows how the resources of the world are gradually drying up. He points out the dangerous consequences of both capitalist and collectivist agriculture in terms of erosion and loss of arable soil. His fantas- tic suggestion that we meet. the problem by reducing the birth- rste is a reactionary revival of the theories of Malihus and begs the real question. But Vogt is remind- ing us that agriculture today stands in need of help. And the help lies ready and waiting in those sound Chrisilaii prlnciplas known and practised in rural areas of past generations. We ad- vocate no return to old methods to old liaiidlcaps. to a backward way of life. But We do call for the adoption of sound principles that agriculture may flourish to the gain and not the loss of souls. Like our forebears, we must. leani to love the soil deeply, We must be. come convinced that it was given to us primarily to provide a liv- ing for the earth's inhabitants, not. a tool to be exploited either for excessive profits or for politi-

cal ends. Ivg

By BOOILMAN

THE DISEASE OF MODERN LIFE

In his delightful poem, "The Modern Gypsy". Matthew Arnold speaks of the strange disease of modern life. The poem is full Oxford and he imagines that he sees the scholar who became a wpsy to learn their lore. He had been reading G1anvlI's account of what had happened at Oxford two hundred years before. Had this scholar not been seen after leav- ing oxford peeping in at the door where a woman was daming, or hanging on a gate where thresh- ers were busy, or passed on g brldiie in cold winter weather Wfihillled in a warm cloak, or on Gogsiow Bridge when scytlies were flaming in the sunshine, or with a lapful of flowers plucked in shy fields or Wychwood bowers, or had not some shepherds met him on the Hurst in spring? I-lad not some merry Oxford riders bllthe seen him on summer nights cross- ing the strlpllng Thames, trailing in the water his fingers? He nev- er returncd to Oxford but he be- came a legend.

. .

Then the writer” awake: and says: "But what? Two "hundred Years had gone since this story was first heard at oxford." Then he says that the student had not suffered by the passing years. Ad- dressing the gypsy, he says. iBut thou posessest an immortal lot: thou art free from what; wears out the life of mortal men, who lire upon 9. thousand sciieemes their wit". Then he speaks of clays when wits were.fresh and clear before this "strange disease of modern life", with its hurry, its divided aims, its heads oler taxed, its palsied hearts. and ends by saying. "Fly hence our contact fear still fly, plunge deeper in the bowering wood".

Wordsworth, the poet of calm, has the same complaint to make. speaking of t-hc lfretful stirr un- profitable” and the fever of .thc world, hanging upon the beatings or his heart." one often feels like asking, "Shall we ever drink of the feeling of quiet again”? What is the disease of the modern world? Is it not liurry, Are we worship- ping at the shrine of speed? Aru- old calls it isick hurry”. Walking is woefully out-of-date. 1-leart dis- ease is cutting many lives short. I think the medvicalfratcrniiywill agree with me tiiat we are moving at too swift a pace for our good.

I suppose we all have watched an ant-iiiu, where the little crea- tures are so busy running hither and thither. It is a picture of life as we see it. Charlotte Bronte had a brother called Branwell. who do- clared that when he came to die he would get on his feet and die standing. He actually tried this when the end came. I have often thought that be. in a measure, typifies modern life. We eat in a hurry, read in a hurry. walk in a hurry, talk in a hurry: and yet the day has its usual twenty-four hours.

Wordsworth found help in Na- ture. Hear him say, "How oft in spirit have I turned. 0 Sylvan Wye. "How often has my spirit turned to thee". And Arnold imagines the scholar smsv seeking the quiet of the country places and he advises ihua ,-'Wsve us away and keep thy solitude." Is not this the rea- son why we love to go to the sea- shore insurnmer? The Bible comes to our aid here for Jesus asked the tired world to come to Him and find "rest". A Hebrew prophet be- fore I-lls day said this to his peo- ple. (Isaiah eozlei. "In quiet- ness and confidence shall be -your strength; and ye wold not. But
