     A liionorahlo Anniversary 
     
    
   
   
    
     Saint Patrick's day this year is being 
     
     celebrated as the 125th anniversary of the 
     
     Benevolent Irish Society of Prince Edward 
     
     Island. Throughout all its years of service 
     
     in the Province, this society has E039 quiet- 
     
     ly on its way, contributing in many ways to 
     
     community progress and betterment. ' 
     
    

    
     Established in Charlottetown in April, 
     
     1825, the Benevolent Irish Society is one of 
     
     the oldest Societies in Canada. In the early 
     
     years of the last century 8. considerable 
     
     ‘number of Irish immigrants settled in Char- 
     
     lottetown, bringing with them their cultured 
     
     manners, unswerving loyalty to the British 
     
     ‘crown, intense love of their homeland, and a 
     
     spirit of ‘philanthropy which has not been 
     
     surpassed by any other race. 
     
    

    
     It was not until the arrival of Col. John 
     
     Ready in 1824, as Lieutenant Governor of 
     
     the colony, that their high resolves blos- 
     
     somed into united ‘action. Under Colonel 
     
     Rcady’s patronage a charitable organization 
     
     was established on April 18th, 1825, under 
     
     the name of the Benevolent Irish Society of 
     
     Prince Edward Island. 
     
    

    
     The objects of this society were of a 
     
     threefold character; the relief of the _poor 
     
     of all creeds and races, the perpetuation of 
     
     Irish national sentiment, and the perform- 
     
     ance of works of benevolence. 
     
    

    
     The most important work of the Society, 
     
     for many years, has been of a charitable 
     
     nature, and no worthy cause has ever been 
     
     overlooked by‘ this grand old organization.

     The world today has become so ac- 
     
     customed to encountering currency diffi- 
     
     culties in the way of trade expansion that 
     
     there is danger of coming to regard mone- 
     
     tary exchange as the most important or 
     
     even the sole problem to be overcome. It 
     
     is, therefore, reassuring to find that the 
     
     Federation of Agriculture is alive to the 
     
     need for producing fine quality eggs, but- 
     
     ter, chicken and meat products, particukirly 
     
     for the growing Newfoundland trade, and of 
     
     so packing and shipping them that they will 
     
     maintain their high quality until they reach 
     
     the consumer. Newfoundland is, and will 
     
     increasingly be, a highly competitive mar- 
     
     ket and if our natural advantages are to 
     
     be fully exploited it is essential that we 
     
     have satisfied customers. 
     
    

    
     Whether a “community” abattoir could 
     
     be run efficiently enough to be both profit- 
     
     able and to uphold the reputation of Prince 
     
     Edward Island products is open to question. 
     
     In Canada the packing business is organ- 
     
     ized on a nation-wide scale and many 
     
     economies are constantly practiced which 
     
     would be impossible to any purely local ‘or- 
     
     ganizatlon. ‘ 
     
    
   
   
    
       
     
    
   
   
    
     Freight Rates Increase 
     
    
   
   
    
     The Ottawa . Journal professes’ astonish- 
     
     ment that “out in the Western provinces 
     
     and down in the Maritimes a cry goes up 
     
     against the latest increase of freight rates 
     
     for our railways. This, despite the fact that 
     
     the increase may be inadequate.” The in- 
     
     crease may, indeed, be inadequate, although 
     
     it was granted after the most careful in- 
     
     vestigation of railway costs. If the rates 
     
     allowed by the Board of Transport Commis- 
     
     sioners were put into effect across the whole 
     
     country there would be no doubt about their 
     
     adequacy. What cuts into railway revenues 
     
     and throws an unfair burden on the West 
     
     and the Maritimes is the policy of cutting 
     
     rates in the central provinces because of 
     
     truck and bus competition. There is no 
     
     .earthiy reason why the Maritimes should be 
     
     penalised in unnecessarily high rates in 
     
     order to carry the costs of operation in 
     
     Ontario and Quebec. . ,

     Senator David, Quebec, advocates a 
     
     world government to oppose and destroy 
     
     the threat of Communism. If such a gov- 
     
     ernment were based on that of the Pro-

     dictatorship, and minorities would be as

     will withdraw them-4: the U.5.A.

     It is I disease of dogmatlsm. 
     
     Marxist dogma has laid down the 
     
     way in which things must develop. 
     
     If they do not develop in the pro- 
     
     ordered way then some explanation 
     
     must be found, some disturbing 
     
     factor detected. 
     
    

    
     For one thing, the Marxist doct- 
     
     rine requires that the transition 
     
     from a capitalist to a socialist sys- 
     
     tan shall at once bring about a 
     
     vast increase in production. The 
     
     revolution comes about precisely 
     
     ‘ the institutions of capital- 
     
     Lvn have become “fetters upon the 
     
     productive forces." In the revolut- 
     
     ion “the integument is burst 
     
     asunder." Vast. productive forces 
     
     are “liberated." 
     
    

    
     And if that has not happened. if 
     
     ti’: production of the soviet count- 
     
     r has not, as confidently anticl- 
     
     pated. leapt ahead of and for out- 
     
     stripped that of the capitalist 
     
     countries, then something must be 
     
     wrong. And it cannot be the sacred 
     
     texts. The Communist Govern- 
     
     ment look desperately for ways and 
     
     means of compelling the expected 
     
     miracle to happen. Hence the 
     
     brutal disciplining and speedlngup 
     
     of the workers. And at the some 
     
     time-—ln genuine bewilderment- 
     
     they look for an explanation and 
     
     find it in the wicked machinations 
     
     of the “remmmts of the capital- 
     
     ist order" and of the "imperialist 
     
     powers." . . . 
     
    
   
   
    
     That is one factor. But it is not 
     
     only production which has gone 
     
     wrong. By the Lenlnlst.-Stalinist 
     
     theory an the "broad masses" of 
     
     the satellite states should have 
     
     rallied enthusiastic:/lly to the new 
     
     order They should spontaneously 
     
     be filled with feelings of loyalty to 
     
     the great Soviet Union and its 
     
     great Communist party. and with 
     
     personal devotion to the “great 
     
     leader and teacher Josef Stalin." 
     
     when that too does not happen, an 
     
     explanation must be found. And 
     
     ugnlfl the same einp‘a.notlon cornea 
     
     most easily to conspiratorial minds. 
     
     Again it is the wicked machin- 
     
     nllons of the "x-emonts" and “im- 
     
     perlsllsts." 
     
    

    
     The Communist lenders turn in o 
     
     fremy of alarm and enthusiasm 
     
     to liquidate the wreckers in whose 
     
     existence they are forced by their 
     
     theories to believe. 
     
    

    
     so the very intensity of the pres- 
     
     ent campaign is an index of the 
     
     anxiety of the Government's. They 
     
     turn to terror because of their own 
     
     alarms and their own frustrations.

     Foreign Ministers To 
     
     Meet This Spring 
     
    
   
   
    
     By W. N. Dwel- 
     
    

    
     Although no definite arrange- 
     
     ments have been made it is now 
     
     taken for granted that the Amor- 
     
     lcan, British and French Foreign 
     
     Ministers will meet during the 
     
     next few weeks-—probably in Lon- 
     
     don. in April. 
     
    

    
     The meeting has no implication 
     
     o1 urgency or anything in the nut- 
     
     ure of A crisis. Nor ‘.1 it to be called 
     
     to discuss any particular problem 
     
     or take any special decision. such 
     
     meetings are indeed likely to be 
     
     periodic. This informal council of 
     
     three has in a way taken over the 
     
     functions of the Council of Foreign 
     
     Ministers. it has a double purpose. 
     
    

    
     First of all, It is I meeting of the 
     
     Foreign Ministers of the three Clov- 
     
     ernments which are now jointly 
     
     responsible for Western Germany. 
     
     secondly, it gives ‘an ogporourlty 
     
     for informal discussion and ex- 
     
     change of views on all other quest- 
     
     ions of common concern to the 
     
     “world powers” of the Western 
     
     system. . 
     
    

    
     . . 
     
    
   
   
    
     The meeting in Paris. in Novem- 
     
     ber, was devoted almost entirely to 
     
     German problems; and it was then 
     
     decided in pl'l"clple to hold another 
     
     meetlng in the sarlng,.slso with 
     
     Germany as the chief subject for 
     
     discussion, But, since November. 
     
     there have beer other developmerrs 
     
     which may r'equi e_ cor-side able 
     
     modification of the expected I- 
     
     gends. 
     
    

    
     During these months there has 
     
     come about I funda ital change 
     
     in the inter-rational structure of 
     
     the world. Th; Soviet Union and 
     
     its associates have withdrawn from 
     
     all participation in the organs of 
     
     the United Nations. That muy on- 
     
     ly be temporary. The immediate 
     
     reason for it is unwillingness to 
     
     take part. in any work or any 
     
     organization with representatives of 
     
     the Chinese Nationalist Gpvc:n-

     restricted. The Dutch Minister - in 
     
     Prague. going the other day to tho 
     
     Cleohosiovsk Foreign Office to 
     
     deliver a note, was curtly informed 
     
     by a policeman that no one could 
     
     receive him and that no foreigners 
     
     were admitted ‘to the building.

     The new regime in chins has 
     
     not yet for any practical purpose 
     
     established diplomatic relations 
     
     either with the United Kingdom or 
     
     any other non-Communist Govern- 
     
     ment which has recognized it. It 
     
     has no effective relations with the 
     
     outside world. 
     
    

    
     And wtth,.a‘l.ussls itself. diplo- 
     
     mstlo relations are very tenuous. 
     
     Western diplomat‘ in Moscow on 
     
     kept frlsldlv at arm’: length. sov- 
     
    
   
   
    
     ls hardly any intercourse em 
     
     in the form of written com mm 
     
     catlons—-usually of more or less u 
     
     pleasant character. 
     
    

    
     In fact, within the post 1. 
     
     months. the segregation of the "t- 
     
     camps" from each other has- 
     
     the deliberate sc‘fcns of the sow 
     
     Government and its associates 
     
     become for more definite srd col 
     
     plete. A situation is being crest 
     
     which has no parallel in made 
     
     history. 
     
    

    
     It is against this background 9 
     
     the three foreign ministers in 
     
     to consider world problems. Pu 
     
     llc opinion has been stirred by 1 
     
     sudden realisation that oil effo

     the control of atomic energy in

     vnsuely call for ‘some "new . 
     
     Drench." But the '15 only one pl 
     
     of 3 far wider oolem. It is 1 
     
     most true to say that there see 
     
     at the moment neither opportun: 
     
     nor machinery for ranching a 
     
     ugleement about anything, eltl 
     
     with the Soviet Union or with a 
     
     member of its group. 
     
    

    
     And that sombre fact is bou 
     
     to condition all -“‘scusslou on 
     
     international problems-whether 
     
     be Itomlc bombs or Germany
