MY PEOPLE by Elisabeth Hoeinberg; J. M. Dent; 53.50. ' This unusual book should be read by everyone who is interested in what is going on in Germany today. The author is a Oanadian girl. graduate of Toronto Univers- ity, who married a cultured cler- man writer after she had done con- siderable travelling in France and Germany. She went with him to Germany in 1938 and there the war overtook them ..and her hus- band was called up to the Luft- waffe. He did office work through- out the war and bitterly i need the entire Nazi regime. At the close of hostilities he was captured and kept a prisoner for a considerable period. The book is the story of what happened to Elisabeth after she went to Germany. She did not like the ruling clique from the start and she, as well as her husband, kept journals in which they re- corded all happenings having any effect on their lives. The author has used extracts from the journ- als and letters which she and her husband wrote during the period 1940 to 1946 when he was ieleased. Here is a frank account of what it was like to be a civilian in Ger- many during World War 2. She had her two children as ompany and solace during her husband's absence, and was never quite sure of the friendliness of hen: neigh- bors. she endured the l ” Strange But True-'1 By I-. an Miwnrtiiu: ' Jacob Astor came to U.

A college graduate often possesses a poor education. while many. a. self-made man is better fitted for the duties od life. Take, for example, George Washington. He was one of the best educated men of Revolutionary times. though many wn-e better schol- ars than he. . And Abra- ham Idnooln could boast of a bet- ter education at 'thlrty than three-fourths of our collegians when they are graduated. not Slr Waltor Scott and Schiller loved storms. often they would climb trees to watch the artillery of heaven. . . . Stephen Gir- ard, the celebrated millionaire of Philadelphia, had the touch of Midas for every enterprise that he undertook added irapidly to his wealth. Abraham Lin- coln was a farmer, tool maker. teamster. trader, merchant, school teacher. lawyer, member of the legislature. commander of a com- pany in the "Black Hawk War." a congressman, and. finally became President of the U. S. A. all within thirty years from the time he quitied pioneering for a wider field. . . The celebrated Dre. Chalmers and Barrow were dull, which became frightful, the short- age of food and the domination of the Nazis. The whole has been put together with remarkable skill and makes a book the reader will not easily forget. After the fighting was over and her village captured. the author became an interpreter for the and her experiences in that capac- ity gave her new ideas of the Al- lied policy. which imposed condit- ions that were rather severe. while the behavior of the troops of oc- cupation left much to be desired. Because she was British she was shocked by the way the victors tried to enforce democracy by mil- ltary strength, just as Hitler had tried to enforce his ideas. she ex- presses her sympathy. however, for the many men and officers who tried to make tolerable a system they knew themselves to be intol- erabie. It is a most revealing story and makes one really; more fully the brutal futility of war, the wrong throughthe devilish conduct of a few. one thing the book shows- thnt people are much the same the can happen to any country and very often they happen when we think them impossible. A handful of evil lien in power can cause suffering beyond calculation. This has been shown us-many times in this century and it will be a trsfic thing indeed if we can find no remedy for such cases.

Jan. - (AP)-Com scription in Europe is quickly mas- sing muscle on the arm of the North Atlantic military body. but two uncontrollable factors make it tough going. These are: l. In some pact countries, not- ably the Netherlands. guns and equipment are so scarce there's little point in milling the con- scription throttle ali the way out. 2. Although Italy teerris with manpower 'wliat to do with it has been a political problem for gen- eraiions; her second world war peace treaty holds her army down to 250,000 men. !n contreast to the United States defence department's call for a draft of 18-year-olds for 27 mcnths' service, most pact count- ries don't start compulsory milit- ary training until the draftee is at least 20. Britain, on the other hand. starts the able-bodies male off at 18 with a two-year stretch of reg- ular iarmy service and tops that off with 3 1-2 years in the reserve. Canada. one of the 12 Atlantic Pact countries has no draft at all. Here's : Europe's conscription set-up: Italy: men are summoned for medical examinatioii at 20. If they are approved, they start training at al and remain in the armed forces for 18 months. The 230,000, treaty limitation means a relatively meagre Italian contribution to Atlantic Pact sec- urity in numerical terms. The same shortage of arms and equipment that dogs the Dutch also is a factor in Italy. Plan 20 Divisions France: Frenclunen start 18 months service at 20. The length of service was 12 months until last fall when Prem- ier Pieven announced Francois de- termination to work toward a 20- division peacetime army with air power to match. As a result of the stepped-up draft. army offic- ials hope to build a backlog of about 1,500.00 trained reservists by 1953. Belgium: Belgian men are call- ed up at 20 for 14 months but a bill now before parliament would make it two years. With ii. total regular army of 74.000 -men, Beiguiin hopes to be able to add roughly 80,000 trained conscripts to that number at any given time after the end of 1962. Britain: British men are called up at 18 years and three months, do two years in the regular army. navy. or air force, then 3 1-2 years in the territorlals-equival- ent of Canada's reserve army. Hltain iiitroduced peacetime conscription in June. 1939-a bare three months before the start of the second world war. The ca1l-u.p (3 was at 20 for a six-month service period but the six months became "duration" once the was declas- ations were posted. When normal peacetime con- scription resumed in 1949. the draftee-called at 18-faced 18 months in the regular forces and four years with the territorials. The rearranged 5 1-2-year figure rates from last October. Britainis armed forces stacked up: anny-375.000: -134.900; air force--190.000. Reserve Army Cut The Netherlands: Holland had a reserve army of &'i0.000 men in 1939 but it now stands at a. slim 75.000. Under the present set-up, Holland keeps about 15,000 men moving through the training mill each year but next October she plans to call up 30,000. then navy Dutchmen must register when they're 16 but they don't start their 12-month service until they're 20. Only part of each av- ailabie class is called because, as Dutch government sources point PAGE THREE COMMUNITY CONCERT CAMPAIGN . ms WEEK OF rsii. 5th Campaign Heddquurfers HOLMAN'S STORE Renew of Headquarters or your worker will contact you. draltees if there's a shortage of training personnel and equipment. Canada has helped the Nether- lands out in the equipment short- age with a gift of 350,000,000 worth of arms-enough to equip an in-- fantry division. l Portugal: Portugal has iieen. calling up conscripts at 20 for 18 moiiths' service since Britain'sl g-rest "iron Du-ke" Wellington was ' battling Napoleon's men in the peninsula with British and Port- uguese troops. After completing his 18 months. the Portuguese becomes a reserv- ist until he's 48. Thus. a Portug- uese general mobilization can put at least 750.000 men at the dispos- al oi the authorities with another million on hand for auxiliary work. Luxembourg: Luxmibouirg calls up her men at in for six months of training. but plans to extend the service to a year. Since conscription started in 1944, Luxembourg has a reserve force of between 8.000 and 9.000 men, with trained conscripts re- callable twice a year for three- week refresher sessions. Norway: Norwegian men are called at 20 for nine months with the army or 12 with either the navy or air force. The trained conscript can be recalled later for refresher runs. In case of general mobilization, all able-bodied Norwegians be- tween 18 and 55 are liable for service. Standing behind the regular forces is an important "home guard" of about 100.01!) men.
