Peace Research Program Same time ago we drew attention

We note how that a Canadian Peace Research Institute is being launched in the first week of, Febru- ary, and that.support is being soli- cited from Canadians everywhere. The idea of an institute was de- veloped by Dr. Norman Z. Alcock, an Ontario physicist. who has impres- sive achievements -to his credit in radar development an.d nuclear -fis- sion, and who left a well-paid’ posi- tion to devote himself to peace re- search. His philosophy is set out in a booklet, “The Bridge of Reason”, which has the support of many

He now has six organizations fully behind him, together with some pretty impressive personnel.

INISTER 1S HAVING TROUBLE

HOXHA'S OVERTURES - Free World Stake-In Albania .

There is-a—certain irony in Communist Albania’s recent tentative overtures to establish better diplomatic and trade re- lations with the. Western’ world, particularly with her neighbor, Greece. Without doubt ‘the Al- banian dictator, Mr. Enver Hox- ha, has been driven to this ini- tiative by his increasing isola- tion within the Communist bloc,

COMMENT *ON’ TEACHERS — Sir,— What we need in -this province at present is more competent school inspectors, men or women very closely screened who would have the’ ability to ‘recognize a school teacher when they see one at work and who would have the necessary time at their disposal to spend at least two full days per month at each school with- “in the Province and who by this method would eliminate the dud teachers.

In my opinion there are people teaching school today that should be arrested for trespas- sing the moment they enter the classroom. Oh sure! They have a first class teachers’ ‘icence but alas! they db not have the ability to teach, which brings to mind the phrase: “‘Some™ people are born to be Doctors, and some to be Lumberjacks”. ~

TIME TO CO-OPERATE Sir, — If one were to take a | plane at Victoria on the ¢igth of December last and fly under the clouds, zig-zag from the Pacific to the Atlantic, where would he or she find cattle feed- | ing on luscious green pastures, | where would be found sparkling | streams of pure water, where would be found the most-home- | like appealing farm st eads, where would one find the most

however, that Albania’s recent about

because Mr. Hoxha violently

and publicly disagreed with Mr ; Khrushchev’s policy of co-exis- | tence with the West. Only a few | days ago, the Albanian Govern- |

ment denounced the Soviet | .Premier for holding so- called | bourgeois pacifist ideas which

would benelit “‘the imperialists | and colonialists’’.

Thus we now have Mr. Hoxha forced by his break with the So- viet Union to adopt the very pol- | icy with which he disagreed— | co-existence with the ‘‘imperial- | ists and colonialists”..He needs | to replace his lost trade with the

Communist bloc with new trade |

with the capitalists. and — who knows — he may even be hoping for a bit of economic aid from the United States.

Amusing as this is, it still pre- sents the West with a problem.
