Communists, the extreme Socialist left has been nble to exercise l force which now seriously endang- ers the life of the Government. . The will for democracy probabii! flzmea as brightly as ever among the Finns, but they. like the Czechs, have been forced to temp- Qflze and make concessions to a powerful and unscrupulous neigh- bor. If the flame threatens to throw too much light, it will be promptly extinguished. »

Europg today is sufferinx from a cane of jitters quite comparable to those of 1g years ago. There is a note of despair, almost of resig- nation, as the people ask "can hin- tory repeat itself so soon?"

The three-Power ntaltement de- ploring the Czech developments, addressed to thin sir. is remindful of the atmosphere then. The situa- tion in Czechoslovakia is not much different from that in Vienna March 11. 19.18, of which Chancel- lor schuschnlgg said:

"We have yielded to brute force since we are not prepared in this terrible situation to shed blood."

The fear in Europe created by the Caech crisis has been aptly described by Foreign Minister Bid- ault of France:

"It 1n unimaginable that pawns can be pushed forward on tM ohennboord indefinitely without resulting in a situation that will become ’ “eroun, periupl very soon."

The Clcchs net out after the wal- to lat along with the Russians ba- cause they felt they must. Sold in- to slavery at Munich and ilnflred by the American Army when they noneup against the Nazis at the and of the war, they could put no reliance on any help nave their own. They fought for a balance between their democratic institu- tions and cooperation with the C munints. For a tinne they sua- oceded in maintaining their inter- nll liberties, but noon lont control o! their foreign relations. They were doing everything that Russia uksd in the way of integrating themselves into Eastern Europe's fight against tho Marshall Plan. But it wasn't enough. Communism. by" its very nature, cannot brook even pnneive resistance.

Speaking with the Prime Minin- tor absent from the chamber, Mr. Grgydon quoted an editorial in to- day's editions of the Toronto Globe and Mofl which said. in Pa":

"Could it be that Mr. King's re- luctance (to table the Drew let- ter). which in going to fantastic lengths, is due to the fut that Mr- Dl-ew referred to a communicI-tlon frcm a high Britlnh diplomat, dated Oct. M, 184-1. telling Mr. King that ‘altered circumstances’ obtained in the Pacific?

"In thin the document he in afraid to put before the public, be- cause it shown that Mr. King knew, three days before the sailing of the Hung Kong gxpedltlflfl. that those untrained, unarmed m would not be facing a period ordinary garrison uty. but. the virtual cer- tainty or rutai war?"

Ml". Graydon went ant

"what. I want to know and what Canadians generally want to know l_n, did the Prime Minister receive. nee 9r hove any knowledge of the communication referred to in this editorial?"

If Mr. King did, he wondered how the Prime Minister could condone that part. of the Royal Commission report which said the "beet informed opinion" available at ths time of the nailing wan that “hostilitiel would not an-lno in the near future."

Reports

. There was little discussion at the evening session as most. of the time was taken up with listening to the reading of reports, the passing of amendments to the constitution of the Federation, the adopting of resolutions, and to three brief addresses by Mr. Roy Grant. manager livestock division, Maritime CO-OPGTSCIVC Services, Moncton, N.B.; Mr. John Mac- Intyre, fertilizer expert with the Canadian National Railways, Moncton; and Dr. J. A. MacMil- Ian, Charlottetown.

Mr. Arsenault. told the Pedal-- ation that the Credit. Unions of the Province had a membership of over 10.000 in their 5O branches with assets of three-quarters of c million dollars. Since their in- ception in the Province the Unions have loaned their membe s two million dollars with a. possible loss in loans amounting to only one-fourteenth of one per cent.

Mr. Dennis, speaking for the cos-operatives, said that during the nine years the movement has been active 1n the Province 28 co- operatives with s. membership of 2,000 have been formed. In Moreli there is a. co-opel-atlve store do- ing an annual buslnessof $180,000, a creamery doing between $140.- 000 and $180000; u fish co-oper- ative doing $80,000 worth of bus- iness each year: and a Credit Union which last year did a $50,- 000 business.
