Perr PACH civipoN, PAGE TWO Red Deer Advocate Published at No. 21, First Street Southeast : RED DEER By THE RED DEER ADVOCATE, LIMITED Publishers and Proprietors A GOOD CHRISTMAS IHRISTMAS 1945 will be with us in a few It will be the best we have ever had in Canada, Few, if any nations have ned their living standards during this war like the Canadians, and we are reaping the benefits of our controls now. There are still shortages but, apart from the industrial users of sugar, there is hardly any business or individual suffering and the benefits of the intelligent distribution of our supplies are very great. With war with Germany over and war with Japan over, with many of our men home from overseas and more coming almost daily, itis a brighter holiday for many families. It should be with a profound sense of grati- tude to the Almighty and to the millions of brave men and women who fought through the years for those things that we continue to enjoy that we celebrate this Christmas Day. O- A CHARGE TO NORTH AMERICA E of the most important decisions in its short history was made by the prepara- tory commission of the United Nations Organization when it voted on Saturday to place its office in the United States. It isa decision which most of the people in Can- ada will approve in spite of the fact that the Canadian delegate voted against the Proposal. The Canadian vote was probably in sympathy with the British desire to have the office somewhere in Europe, and while that sympathy is understandable, it is rea- sonably certain that the. bulk of Canadian sentiment would have favored the United States site. It is probable that the chosen site will be approved by the full meeting of the United Nations Organization when it meets in January. There is a good deal to be said for a site in the United States. Apart from that great nation itself, which is now almost cer- tainly the greatest nation on earth in pro- ductive capacity, Russia, the South Ameri- can republics, China, Australia, and several other nations were strongly in favor of plac- ing the office there. The League of Nations had its offices at Geneva, and the failure of its members to carry out the provisions of the League convenant brought that organ- ization into disrepute in a number of quar- ters. Lack of support by the United States was another obstacle to the League's suc- Sess. A certain atmosphere of failure is at- tached to Geneva dnd Europe: generally in the minds of many people, and to strike out boldly to the North American continent seems to them a proper and a timely move. The fact that the new site was whole- heartedly approved by Russia and the United States, two of the Big Three, is an- other strong. argument for its selection. It is early to talk of the great problems facing the United Nations Organization, but none of them are insuperable, given understand- ing and tolerance, both of which must begin with the individual. THE LOAN TO BRITAIN have been great forward strides taken in the United States toward in- ternational thinking, although the isolation- ist islands like the Chicago Tribune and Senator Burton Wheeler from Montana still persist, Fhe-ratification of the United Na- tions Organization plan, the voting of huge sums to UNRRA, and the approval of the Bretton Woods agreement, are all signs of an outward looking point of view. Now the British government has bene gravted a loan of more than 3,000,000,000 to finance its immediate post-war needs, and that loan thas been approved by the United States Senate. Things have moved a long way since the days of Senator Lodge and Sen- ator Cabot and Woodrow Wilson and the Versailles treaty, which was turned down by that same body. It took a good deal of courage to support a loan of that size to Britain, and the leaders of the United States government deserve credit for taking such a step. It is true that the terms are onerous. The British government is compelled to pay interest at the rate of 2 per cent, a high rate for such a loan, While no repayments are to be made for the first five years of the term, the interest accrues during this per- fod and the regular repayments begin at it expiry. Members of al) parties in the Brit- ish House of Commons protested at the sev- erity of the loan terns; Mr. Churchill sug- gesting that his party could have secured better terms, a suggestion unworthy of his great leadership dpring the war. There was strong sen it in the House and in the country for Meclining the loan and for trying to go ahead without it, but' the abso- lute necessity for some funds for external trading dictated acceptance of the terms offered by the United States. , Great Brit- an st export to live. tu export she must be able to finance her goods going abroad, and she must have credit to do that. A loan like this one is still a necessity even though the cost of it is both heavy and difficult to bear, It would be a popular move for the Canadian government to provide Great Britain with a substantial credit without interest, We did it during the war, and we could do it again 5- CANADA TAKES STAND R. MACKENZIE KING's statement to the House of Commons on Monday on the future possibilities of the use of atomic energy marked a real forward step in inter- great nation such 1 to declare that she was prepared part of her sovereignty to pre- serve the peace of the world is both starti- ing and hopeful, startling because it was unexpected, and hopeful because it fore- shadows similar action by other great na- tions. While it is obvious to many people that some form of international world gov- ernment is an essential if we are to have peace, there are some vocal and belligerent elements in every country which oppose anything moving in this direction. Like the Bourbons, they have learned nothing and forgotten nothing. Mr. King was well aware of the importance of his statement and the care with which he had prepared it was evident.in his delivery, Man cannot hope to control atomic energy in commodity and police terms, he said. The. solution must be found in the realm of philosophy and morals, he pointed out. In return for the surrender of some measure of national sovereignty, the nations of the world, acting together, should be able to maintain inter- national security and prevent war. Before such action as Mr. King anticipates can be made effective in the international sphere, a great deal of missionary work.must be done within all countries. Canadians can do their part, and can start now. It fits in to give up * admirably with the spirit of this Christmas s ason, Fine Palestine Report ' of Mr. (By Elmore Philpott) JOURNALISTS HAVE PROFOUNDLY affected the course of history in the past few years.. There have always been writ- ers, preachers or prophets who have done so. But up till our own time it was the Ione voice that was heard often because there was no competition. Lincoln might never have. freed the slaves but for the dynamic supplied by such people as the woman who wrote Uncle Tom's Cabin. The recent war against Fascism would not have been won had not many honest newspaper people teamed up to tell enough of the world enough of the terrible truth in time. I know of no finer job of public enlight- enment.done by any journalist in these times than that by I. F. Stone in the Nation for December 8, 1945. It is entitled Pales- tine Pilgrimage. It describes a.trip to the Middle East by this noted American jour- nalist, who is himself a Jew. It sets forth the basic: facts about the situation there with fairness and lack of prejudice, which is in marked contrast with the untrue, anti- British, anti-Arabic outbursts contained in the recent full-page advertisements in the United States. HERE ARE A FEW KEY POINTS MADE by Mr. Stone: I found myself immensely attracted by the life of . .. the Jewish community of Palestine. It is the one place in the world where Jews seem completely unafraid .. , Even in England, France, and at home in the United States, there are premonitory tremors. Tam quite willing to attribute this to historic sentimentality, but it re- mains none the less a tremendous and in- scapable fact. le honestly admits that only fanatics like Zionists could have successfully col- onized areas which goats despise. But he equally honestly shows that that fanaticism is partly pe ponaible for the present explo- sive. situation. The defects of jonism are reflected in its failure to take into account feelings and aspirations of the Palestinian Arabs. The Arab has benefitted from the J wishinflux, but only directly. The Zionist has not hurt ay but the Zionist has made him feel shut ene ow I understand... why Yishuv will fight and has a right to fight against permanent minority status under present conditions in an Arab state. But I also un- derstand why the Palestinian Arab, to whom Palestine is also home who has fully 's much right there as the Jew, does not ih to live as a minority in a Jewish state, No one likes to be ruled by alien people. T found no Palestinian Arab in favor of a Jewish state. e Arab does not hate the Jew, but he fears being dominated by him, and this fear must be allayed. I DO NOT AGREE WITH ALL DETAILS Stone's conclusions. But he is on absolutely solid ground when he urges a settlement frankly facing the fact that the tWo races must live together and that neither can try to become overlord of the other without bringing ae to both, A better solution than Mr, Stone's bi- 5 under international trustee- ship, would be a free democratic Palestine, with mutual protection of present or future minorities, by the proportional representa- tion system of election as urged by Mr. Wil- son Southam, of Ottawa, as the sane solu- tion of this vexed question.
