Looking Ahead i

We trust that to our urban as well as rural readers the contents of our sixth annual Farm Edition. ap- pearing today, will be read with close interest and preserved as a source of reference. The most striking feature of the articles is their realistic approach to current farm problems, and the proof they sfford that agriculture is not only still the major industry in this Pio- vince but is likely to remain so for a long time to come.

The contributors are, for the most part. experts in their field. end it is reassuring to note their general tone of optimism. This is " not due to wishful thinking. but to cautious appraisal of the prospects for development along modern lines. In keeping with consumer demands and changing market conditions. Plsiiniy. the old days of haphazard. prvulllt‘lion and marketing are gone forever: but so have our dirt roads. our horse-and~buggy t re n s p o r t muthnds, and other symbols of the ‘[\.l~l The future will see further i changes. even more spectacular. in any phase of human activity; but ll‘ill Is something not to be dopl'ir- ‘ so. but to he. faced with courage l Mil confidence

Whose Side Is It On?

3 The Winnipeg Free Preee cm- tInum to blast Prime minister MC for his "81“ Inlllol

all. m prune in the levee Im- mediately effected." Here, it con- fcesa. “whether or not the con- structiai of the causeway is in the national interest, the promise to construct it is very much in the in- terest of the Conservative party in the Maritime Provinces."

This from one of the leading Liberal newspapers of the country will be read with mixed feelings by its party supporters. And they will Wonder. as they peruse the Free Press editorial further, whether it hasn’t sold them out altogether on the issue. For it claims that It was “in the 1958 campaign that Mr. Diefenbaker sowed the seeds” of

.this rewarding promise. “The gov-

ernment." it says. "then instituted an engineering and scientific survey to determine the feasibility of the P.E.I. causeway."

That is s statement which neither Liberal Leader Pearson nor any of his supporters in the Atlan- tci Provinces would be prepared to sdmit for a moment. It was the Liberals, they proudly claim. that instituted the surveys and made the first election promise on the sub- ject. Prime Minister St. Laurent himself book credit for this. In e speech here In the 1957 campaign. he said the surveys were being pushed forward and if they showed the project to be feasible. engineer- ing-wise. and justified economically. it would be undertaken by his gov- emment.

Prim e Minister Diefenh'lker'l statement in Parliament was that. both of these conditions have now been satisfactorily established; and it was on this basis that he made what our Winnipeg contemporary calls his brazen political bribe. As we pointed out the other day. 1 similar “bribe” was promptly given by Mr. Pearson. He didn‘t even wait to get to the Island with it. but wired it. or telephoned it. to his party candidates here before he arrived.

How could the Free Press have gotten its facts so badly mixed? The trouble. we imagine. is that it has been reading ton much Consor- vative propaganda. It is they who claim to have fathered the scheme. and the Liberals who have been denying it; and the Manitoba Lib- eral oracle—shame on it l—has swal- lowod the any bait. hook. line ind sinker!

Well, If They Insist . . .

“Watch the results from tiny Prince Edward Island on election night." says an article in the Finan- cial Post. “for clues to the way the nation is voting." The article points out that since World War I. this province has never backed s na- tional loser. And in 1925. wh e n neither Liberals nor Conservatives won e majority of seats in the House of Commons. P.E.I. also was divided.

The Post srticle gives the proof of this in detailed figures of voting in federal elections since 1921. It says that on this heels of our claim to be e true political weathervene. election experts ere analysing the present contest this wey:

If P.E.I.—hsving elected f o u 1' Progressive Coneervetivce end no Liberals in 1957-58—electa one Lib- eral this time. the Liberals will win e lots] of 80-100 Commons seats neﬁonelly. If we choose two Lib. erels. it will be e "very, very tight election." And if P.E.I. c h 00 s e 1 three or four Liberals, then, of mm. ember-e1 victory id indict-Md.

So. let's watch our step cere- fully in this contest! A mistake on ourpertcouldbeverycoetlytothe country. As bellwether of the ﬂock.

TRYING TO CARRY BOTH

THE STRUGGLE FOR

MINDS

Religion In The Soviet Union

A call by the leader of th e Communist youth movement in the Soviet Union for greater atheistic propaganda to counter new effort: by the churches shows how lightly Communism holds freedom. The official told the opening session of the Con‘ grass of Komsomol 'Young Communist League) that con- stitutional guarantees of free- dam of religion do not spply to children.

While the Soviet Communist

movement has traditionally op-_

posed all religious faith and has held atheism to be the Party dogma. it is true that of- flrials have never been grutly concerned about the older citi- zens who still crowd services in Russian Orthodox and Baptist churches. synagogues. mosques and other houses of prayer. The Communisis' approach has been to concentrate on youth and to let nature take in course with the older folk.

ALARMING TREND!

Recently. however. there sp- peer to be developing elsnmng trends for Communist iifficiele. Mr. Harrison Salisbury of The New York Times has reported in this newspaper that within the most advanced echelon of Soviet science there is emerg- ing I tendency to seek a non- meteriallstic concept of the uni~ verse. Some of the most brilli- enl Soviet scientists. men of great influence and prestige In thelr country. are uggestlng that there must exist in the uni- verse a force or power that Is superior to anything crested by man.

what a shock this must be to Premier Nikita Khrushchev. whe once said that his coemcneuu hed looked everywhere in space but hed not found any Heaven.

gence of religious faith in the higher echelons of Soviet soc- iety. s new movement has em en within the Orhodox Church. Mr. Salisbury says. which is strongly backed by the young priesthood

A key figure of the new move- ment is 32 - year-old a: Nicodemus. who lest yeu became head of the Church‘s department of foreign affairs. The new, young priests are seeking to break the image of the Orthodox Church as a fort- ress of superstition and back- wardness end to develop an up pcal to youth.

One priest. for example. ls pre- senting a series of sermons on

‘Iopics of immediate and cos-

troversial interest. He announ- ces them in advance. like I lee ture course. and encourages discussions after the mom.

i Other churches such as the

‘ Baptist Church also are appeal- ing to youth. Activities such I:

sports program. football teams and hobby activities are being introduced which interest partl‘ culerly the young people. The Komsomol has realized that this approach poses a far more sen lous threat to Communism in- doctrination then the earlier purely s " ‘ .u ‘ ‘ the devotional practices.

The struggle for young minds in the Soviet Union will be bib ter and it can be feared the! even In the poet-Stalin era the Communist Party will not hee- ltete to waive the regime's so- cellcd constitutional freedoms end liberties if it considers this to its advantage.

Yet. even in Russia the basic gwareness In men of e Being beyond and above himself diet hard. It may be forgotten and

it may be repressed but his- tory hes sh0wn all too often that. like a seed. it needs only to be driven Into the ground it grow and to ﬂower.
