OoUuR BIG 1949 SEED AND NURSERY BOOK h: ic Matheson reâ€" Mr. and Mrs. tie â€"winter THE PORCUPINE ADVANCE, TTIMMINS, ONTARIO We are standing at the dawn of a new year, looking forward, wondering what will happen in the year which lies ahead. ~â€" We are not aione in this world, we have ne.ghbours and much oi our. happines depends on them. Is is a more closely knit world than ever before. This is true despite the fact that there are now large areas in which it would be difficult for a Canadian to pui. his feet. We have, HWowever, reached the time in which even those who chose their doors exert a profound influence on our lives and, as we look forward to the coming year, we wonder what will happen among cur friends and neighbours and among those who, for certain peculiar reasons, do not want us to know very much about them. I am convinced that the situation in Europe is much better than it was a year ago. There are signs that the light is breaking. We hear now Oof movements for expansion of trade beâ€" tween Russia and otner countries. It is not impossible that this movement may extend to this continent, and before the year is over we may be exâ€" changing Canadian products for Rusâ€" sian products and taking Russian coods or Russian gold in exchange. Nor are conditions worse in the areas in which the armies of East and West now face each otner. There is every prospect for eventual clashes where two opposing forees are in asâ€" suming that the chances for it are getting less and less‘" All is not smooth going in Sovietland. In a ‘"People‘s Republic‘ a despot has a difficult task. When we quarrel with out polâ€" itical leaders in this country we throw them out of office. That may be good for them, opposition may be stimulating. The new occupants of the seats of power find themselves unhappy in their jobs, but it is quite different in a despotism. If the people of Russia quarrel with their leaders, the way out is normally assassination. It‘s a messy business at best, and a new despot is likely to be better than the old one. Russia wants to convert the world io Communism. She is confronted now by the Western nations they do not want to be converted. There is a more abounding freedjom under demâ€" ceracy than there could be under desâ€" potism. The barriers in time may break and ideas begin to pass back adn forth between Russia and her neighâ€" tours. The curse of despotism is that it stifles thought. Russ‘a has other tasks. She is pushâ€" ing her Communism in the far East. China may quite possibly become a Communist nation but there is no hope, under Communism, of turning China into a happy and prosperous country. The Communists have promâ€" ised to break up the land holdings and distribute them among the Chinese people. It is a hopeless task. Thirâ€" teen acres in China is a large farm. split that once or twice, what have you? A good many people in China own their own land, that is only a small area, an acre or two, they ljve in hopeless poverty. The population is rapidly increasing Communism is not likely to introduce any great fundâ€" amental change which will increase the standard of living or take the Chinese cut of their misery. If Rusâ€" sia moves East she will have plenty o engage her attention. Nor is Russia without trouble at | home. Marshall Titc, the Yugosiay i Prime Minister, is rather restless. The trouble is an economic one, Papa Stalâ€" ‘ in wunts him to do as he is told, Tito { has ideas of his own. He wants to | import machinery build his own facâ€" | tories, develop industries. Stalin wants him to be a good farmer, send his products to Russia, get what he can for them. Ncthing may happen but Tito is very ambitious â€" meanwhile he is threatening to opern up trade with Western Europe. The Marshal will he worth watching. ie may form: an interesting part of the European | picture in the coming year. ‘ we may expect for tne next few | years that Russia, balked in KHurope, ywith the prospect of a gig@ntic _ war if she brings America into the World Looks Forward JANET LEIGH drives home th fellow actress Phyilis Thaxte MLâ€"Gâ€"M‘s ‘"Act of Violence," in and girl friend respectively of « *:¢cbort Ryan. By R. J. Deachman Punch Line conflict, will look the other way. Some time, of course, there may be a great conflict between East and West with the Pacific Ocean as its base but that is a matter for a distant day it is no likely to bring us irouble in 1949. Meanwhile tension in Europe may slacken, confidence may return. Amâ€" erica will cont nue aid on a gradually reducing scale. Britain is planning to reach a selfâ€"supporiing basis by 1952. Frapnce one of the richest of the countâ€" Pension plans, either private or pubâ€" lic, are not encouraging Canadians to retire from woOrk at too early an age, in the opinion of informed observers | answering a Financial Post questionâ€" naire. The majority favored adequate ; pensions at 6G or 65, on the gxoundl that the average citien had earned some leisure and security at that age, ' and that retirements would provuo! openings for promotion for younger | workers. Several contended, however, i | i that retirements should be optional, rather than compulsory; and stressed that many men of 65 and older could stiy give valuable serviceâ€"perhaps in an advisory capacity. § is land of blight and nopelessness, but even here the recovery of Europe would help.

Leo Leacosk and Mary Rogers upheld the affirmative side of the debate in Iroquois Falls. The topic was, Resolved that the Canadian Government should own and operate pAli railroads in Canada. The Kirkâ€" land Lake debaters, Mariannte Kokoâ€" tau and Denise Murphy, put up a stiff argument, but Iroquois came out on top by a few points.
