tr-,,.i-it prospects of salvaging -Jnietliiii; from the growing Com- iiiuiiist hold on Asia. seem hope- less hi this observer.

The frii'.cring away of lands and pmplc and their progressive lib- Winioii into the Communist net- iwik sccms as inevitable as the

atruetion. to be ready two years hence, will not begin to meet the need. Meanwhile controversy sharpens about the government; decision to spend 820,000,000 on a combined city hall - community centre. "Let's do the essential things first: culture can come later," said a. typical letter to an editor.

WESTIS EHOP WINDOWS

Until now Korea and Formosa, where U.B. money and military aid for five years have propped up Chiang Kai - shek's government. have been considered the West's shop windows in the Orient. Now Indo-China has set the time-table, for events there in 1956 cannot help but influence developments elsewhere in the Far East.

Unless the windows look better and a program is devised and im- plemented to strike the imagina- tion of the Asian peasant. the chal- lenge may go by default.

See Reds Seeking To Wreck Alliance in Southeast Asia. Divide U.S.-Japan

By RICHARD 0'lEGAN

VIENNA (AP)-World com un- ism apparently got new or ers from the Comintorm Monday Speed up efforts to wreck any

Lwestern alliance in Southeast Asia

and win Japan away from U.S. influence.

I Japan and the West's Southeast Asia plans received the same No. 1 priority as Germany a the European Defence Commu ity in Communit thinking when the Com- inform's weekly journal printed two equal-length editorials on its front page. '

The journal's editorials are re- garded by diplomats as instruc- tions to rank-and-file Communists.

One editorial praised France's rejection of a European army. and claimed the "glorious French Coin- munist party" had headed the fight against the EDC. But it said that thestrugglc against German rc- armament was not ended.

The second called for an inter- national figbt against the "revival of J a p a n e lo militarism." it claimed the United States is mak- ing "trernendoua efforts to involve Japan in the Southeast Asia Treaty Organization."

SCAEE CAMPAIGN

A Western observer commented: "It seems the Communists hope to scare the Southeast Asians in the same way may have terrilied'mnny Europeans about German rearma- ment and thus prevent a SEATO alliance."

The editorial set forth the Krem- lin's aims regarding Japan:

No participation in SEATO or other military blocs. withdrawal of American occupation troops, can- cellation ot all treaties and agree- ments signed between Japan and the U.S., the liquidation of monop- olies and the creation of a "peace- loving democratic state"-a Com- munist term applicd to all Soviet satellites.

This happy trio are members of the 3rd Regiment, Royal Cana-

dian Horse Artillery. serving in Korea with the 25th Canadian In-
