” g. ;This year marks the 50th anniversary -1); the death of Sir Henry Morton Stanley, of the distinguished explorers in Eng- "lish history, a newspaper correspondent of iinote, and an author of no mean distinction. iHls' story is a story of genius and greatness with s. background of poverty. Born of ' -extremely poor parents in an obscure cor- ” "her of Wales he spent his early years in n poorhouse. Coming to New Orleans as a cabin boy at Whe age of sixteen he was adopted by a merchant who gave him his 2 name; his original name was John Row- Eilands. After serving in the American Civil A War he became a war correspondent for 3 the New York Herald and subsequently for Ejthe London Daily Telegraph; he covered various war theatres with distinction. Stanley is best remembered for his suc- w cessful expedition into the interior of "Africa in search of David Livingstone who had not been heard from for some time. His efforts to persuade the renowned mis- ...-sionary who was far from well to return to civilization and Livingstone's arguments ififor staying on at Lake Tanganyika are re- "corded in moving and classical language in ..'f,his book "How I found Livingstone," pub- . lished in 1872. Other works included j '"I'hrough the Dark Continent", "In Dark- .-est Africa", and "Through Southern Af- ”'rica". For his services to the Empire and .in recognition of his arduous and success- ful search for Livingstone he was knighted :,"by Queen Victoria and received the free- ZC dam of the City of London. His funeral "service, attended by members of the Royal .,:Family. government ministers, and diplo- i-matic representatives from many coun- ,)tries, was held in Westminster Abbey. His - body lies in a little country church-yard in Surrey, a spot which he himself selected. t The epitaph on his tomb is the single word f,”Africa." Like Livingstone himself, Stanley was - "much beloved by the African natives with whom he came in contact on his several - journeys; one tribe nicknamed him Bula ' Natari, the "Rock Builder". Africa is still .--"a dark and mysterious continent although ' many of its remote regions are now tak- "klng the first steps towards free and re- sponsible government. If, as it is hoped, these eventually will make a worthwhile contribution to the over-all stability of a democratic society, much credit will belong ,; to the bold and courageous explorers of "the past. Of them all none will be more kindly remembered than Henry Morton Stanley who began life in a poorhouse and .ended it in honour bestowed by a grateful -nation and empire.

A confused situation

United Nations uneasiness with respect to the confused situation in Korea will not "be alleviated by President Rhee's "no -bluffing" statement that his armies will "Jparch again against the North Koreans and their Chinese Communist allies. Should the threat be converted into action it will i result, as Canada's External Affairs Min- puts it, in a "terrible mess." Con- cdivably. it could bring about a veritable fiasco of the aims and purposes on which United Nations intervention originally was based. Certainly it would place the United ,Nations high command in a' dilemma of serious import. It does not appear reasonable to sup- pose that South Korean forces alone could hope to win a decisive victory over the v,,,p,ol-thern invaders, especially in view of the ...Itrong supposition that the Communists "have been taking advantage of the arm- istice period to renew their strength and replenish their supplies. Even if it were ' ble; the South Korean action. technical- ' "At least. would be in the nature of ag- I .n and, consequently, subject to Uni- , , fictions censure or even punitive cor- " 3 It would be ironlcal indeed if Uni- A .'hl Nations. forces, having come originally to to help the South Koreans, should to fight them in the end.

The hope is, of course. that President Rhee will not permit his very natural and understandable impatience over the delay in the unification of his country to over- rule -hk better diplomatic judgment. How far that hope is justified no one seems pre- pared tq say; all that anyone knows at the moment is that the Korean question is far from settled. It is possible that things will get much worse before they take a turn for the better.

Newsprint Rationing

A British cabinet minister, the Presi- dent of the Board of Trade, when discus- sing the possibility of ending the rationing of newsprint stated that there is no con- siderable quantity of newsprint available anywhere for early delivery. "In a very narrow sense he was probably right but given as a reason for retaining rationing the statement is definitely misleading.

Like most products newsprint supply expands and contracts with demand. If there is not more Canadian newsprint avail- ' able at the moment for the British market it is simply because under rationing there seems little likelihood of additional demand. In other words it is the limitation of im- ports that has limited supplies from this country rather than vice versa. .

At A time when Canadians are concern- ed at the weakness of markets for pulp- wood and its products it seems strange in- deed to find lack of supplies here used as an argument for Britain not to attempt to increase imports. This country could soon catch up with any increased demand re-. sulting from an easing of the restrictionsp which presently limit our exports to the United Kingdom.

The root of the matter, of course, is cost in dollars and that is a difficulty which many minds have been tackling over a per- iod of years. It does not help to have public men obscure the issue by bringing in irrelevancies such as the existence or non-existence of immediately available sup- plies.

EDITORIAL NOTES

In the United States Navy "petty" of-' ficers are objecting to the implied indignity of that term. They have brothers in misery on the bench of Britain's High Court of Justice where all but the Chief Justice are referred to as "puisne” judges.

That Canada occupies a unique position and has unique responsibilities is the theme of R. A. Farquharson. NATO's information director. The implications are as profound as in the case of the United States when that country became most unwillingly a world leader early in the present century.

0 O C

There being no higher mountains to climb, French naval officers have estab- lished a record at the other end of the scale by descending 2 U2 miles below the sur- face of, the Atlantic. No doubt the ad.- venturous will be looking for a "better 'ole."

A Toronto lady who has reached 100 gave some of the usual advice to others who would like to attain that age. In ad- dition, however, she, attributes much of her present good health to her girlhood hobby of climbing trees. Just how tree climbing preserved her health is left intriguingly

open.

Speaking of 'the future of the Common- wealth Division now in Korea Sir Winston Churchill stated that if any proposals were made for constituting a standing U. N. de- fence force as had been suggested. they would receive'careful attention. It seems likely that Canada too, which has contribut- ed to NATO forces in Europe, would give consideration to the advisability of mak- lng a similar continuing U. N. force in the Far East.

Sir Henri Charles Wilfred 'L?uT-fer, Canadian Liberal statesman, died this date 1919. He practiced law for a while in Montreal but gave it up for reasons of health. In 1871, however, after some journalistic experience, he was elected to the Provincial Legislature. From 1874 he was a Federal member, succeeding Edward Blake As Liberal leader in 1887. He sl- wsys favoured free trade. , He sent abroad Canada's first expeditionary force, to take part in the South African War. '

A FREE COUNTRY - ,

Sir, -We are not yet behind the iron Curtain or the Bamboo Cur- tain. I was conscious of the privilege I enjoy when I visited A back room in the city to get two or three large cards contain-

img each A short verse of scrip-

lure such as-"Your Father Him- self Loveth You" or "Lo! 1 am with you Alway." These mAy be hung on the wall of one's room and used as A cure for insomnia. The cure. will work if you have faith. If you have no faith. I say -go After it as After A hidden treasure. Next I priced Moi- fatt'A New Testament and the Old and the New Testament in the Douay version. I found the latter less expensive than expect- ed and felt proud of my' pur- chase. We are not afraid of the plainclothen policeman or of any one listening At our window. Even our "Board of Education" does nothing to poison our children's minds, but I believe should study ways in which the full "fourfold program" of study might function. Having given much thought to this subject. I have not forgoi- fen that the tescher- has now enough work on her hands. But with the pan in mind she would only be as ed to hang on placard rm the wall every Monday morn- in: and remove the one that hung there the previous week. She would be responsible for its safety. The scholsrs' part would be. to copy the words on that placard into their scrlbblern sometime through the week. committing to memory if possible. Memorislng is important As it then will be hidden in the heart, or on our grandpnrents said, lenrned by heart. Then when the end of a month would come. the boy or girl of from 10 to 14 would bring his work to the clergyman. who on looking it over and hearing it recited. would give the marks that it merited. Other details would lend themselves to Adjustment. In planning for this sort of spiritual discipline. we look ahead to the time soon to come when these same young people will be having homes of their own and creating the Atmosphere that de- vclops character. One further thought in, that that child will begin at once to affect the lives nf his worldly parents. I Am. Sir. etc., ARCH. MaeKENZlE. Kensington. A TIP ON STRAIGHT TIIINIING

Sir.-I am sorry to say that Argnmcntaun Ad houslnx hu fig- ured too frequently in the parent- t-Acher discussion in the press. In the Fcbrusry issue of A leading msgnzine. Stunt Chase discusses straight thinking. He singles out this rhetorical expedient which he says easily lead: the list of N varieties of false reasoning. Argu- mnnturn Ad homlnon in prsctlcc menu thAt "if s can is hsrd to snack on its merits, attack the character of the man in chase." And Mr. Chaos in his next pern- grnph adds. "Our conclusions on be good, bad or indifferent. do- pcndins on how we have learned to think."

A classical exsmplo of this Argu- mont is Cicero's defence of big- orius. Tubero'A accusation wu Llgsrius bAd fought against CAosAr in Africa. Cicero pointed- lv turns to the accuser: "But. 1 uk. who says fhst It was i crime in Llnriun to have been In Af-

Your recent "Morning Smile" neatly brings out this shifting from the merits of the case to personal reflections: It. was late evening on An ocean liner; ob- jects even at A short distance were barely visible through the fog.

An old adage says. "ifnul-can lead I horse to the water but you cannot make him drink if he will not." Likewise you cannot make A man think until he himself da- cldes he will think-that is. in educational matters. the ambition to learn how best to think clear- ly. to empty an idea of its true content. To think is to bridge the gap between the individual And the universal and vice verss. Enl- zac's Comedie Humalne gives us .1 good illustration of our text. Balzac was one of the great cre- ntlve geniuses of his age. Like Shakespeare he could build an imaginary world filled with beings At once intensely individual and yet universally typical of the great passions And sentiments of hu- manity. The meticulous teacher may find defects in BalzAc'I lit- erary Atyle but these are over- whelmingly balanced by his ori- glnnllty, vivid imagination. and great powers of observation.
