It went far beyond what any country ‘was willing to do in the control of other weapons and set up sornething like world covernment in this one sector of international. relations. It abroâ€" sovereignty in a vital spot, and would, have put a great strain on »n»ationalism in any country. ul The Spitfite.was built in a shadow factory in the Urals in f 039 ) by two engineers. named Rolisky and Royceky. The plans hte given to the decadent British in 1940 because Stalin knew gll along that reactioriary Germany was planning to attack Russia inwa1941 and he wanted the stupid Englishmen to take the sting out of the Nazi air force. Rollsky was inade a Hero of the Soviet Union, Third Class, last year. Royceky was caught listening to a bourgeois named Frankie Sinatra «on the eaptalist Voice of Wall Street programme in August and was purg=ed; "Forever Amber" wais practically finished by a Smolensk school teacher, under the title "Continuousiy Katrinka" tut a certain wWestern power spy working for a fascist novelist by the name of Kathleen Winsor stole the script while the teacher was ‘irying to figure out whether to llquxdate Katrinka in Upper Siberia or lower Slobbovia; If there was ever a chance that Russia w.puld acceptit, thai chance vanished quickly as the abyss of distru:t between East and Wwest yawned wider and wider and wider. Not ;3mly did the Baruch Pian break down Russian nabxonaubm it would necessarily smashed the barriers of secxecy and isolation ‘rom the free world which are essential to tytalitarian tyranny. Rissia may also teen convinced that its enemies would have lominated the conâ€" trol commission and stifled its atomic develoj@iment. The atom bomb was the discovery of a Stalingrad druggist named Igor Popoff n 1937. ~Popoff was busy trying to improve on another Russianâ€"invented fissionable product, Eno‘s Fruit Salts, when he turned up plutonium.. The Weâ€"Wantâ€"Peaceâ€"Atâ€" Curâ€"Price Society appealed ta the Russian Humane Society, known in Moscow as the NKVD, and the warmongering Popoff was purged; _ Television was invented by an obscuire Sebastopol scientist in 1919, but the first transmissionâ€"a folk dance by a bunch of elderly mujiksâ€"scared Lenin out of his wits and he ordered the equipment temporarily purged and the scientist permanent‘k purged; , A few weeks ago, in the ancient Italian city of Florence, a crew of Communist pittchmen were going broke selling a wishyâ€" washy soft drink at a kig Marxist hoedown. Even the reddest of the reds wanted a capitalistic beverage called Cocaâ€"Coca. In desâ€" peration, the pop salesmen erected a big sign announcing that "Coke" was invented by some Russian in 1912. This was small consolation for the crowd, but the statement certainly hit the for queer claims made by the Russians in the past few years. Practically everything of value was invented by the Russians â€"s0o say the Russiansâ€"long before some decadent westerner snitched the idea and patented it as his own.

Then for months the experts labosked in the Atomnic Inergy Commission of UN to reconcile the wo positorfts. Effecâ€" tive inspection is the key to real controls,, and Mt.

Lake Subscription Rates: Inventions Unlimited Disturbing Swim year in 1923, there wasn‘t a singls : ervice club in this part o. tie North frocm North Bay to the North Pole Of course, Timmins was first among the towns up here to establish a serâ€" vice club. Today there are about twoenty of these organizations in the towns of the North. z‘ine, but "IN THE DAYS WHEN The cltief credit for the organizâ€" aticn of a sorvice club in Timmins gces to Louis G. Neville, mho enerâ€" getically and enthusiastically advoâ€" cauled and organized the Miw faiis Club of Timmins in the fal of. 1923. Louis G. Neville should be rememâ€" bered in Timmins for three particuâ€" lar reasons: he directed several cxâ€" cellent dramatic entertainments here; ho was the unconscicus cause of anâ€" ither Scottish story going into c.â€"â€" culation: and he was the man resâ€" ponsible for bringing the Kiwanis to Timmins. Today ther: are no less than ten service clubs in the town of Timmnins As for the Scottish story referred to. it unconsciously developed from another activity urndertaken by Mr. Neville. After directing one show htre for the Daughters of the Emâ€" pire, Mr. Neville decided to remain in Timmins and publish a newspaper LFere. He named his newspaper "The Free Press," and previous to the first ‘Lsue, the new venture was very widely advertised by large posters. Every window in town seemed to sport one of these posters. The name of the new newspaper, and the adâ€" dress on Spruce street, were very prominently displayed on the plaâ€" cards, the two lines being plainly read from across the street. "FREE PRESS" in large letters were the words that none could miss in passâ€" ing. According to the story current at thte time, Scotty Wilson saw these words. "Free Press," and rushed home to pick .up ‘any creased clothes he hadyx and rush them to that adâ€" dress on Spruce Street. The joker who first started this Scottish story insisted that he did not mean Scotty Wilson, musician and Justice of the Peacc, who today has the distincâ€" tion o‘@ having been a member of the Timmins Kiwanis Club for almost a quarter of a ‘century, nineteen of those years being spent as secretary of the club. The joker always said: "It wasn‘t thlat Scotty Wilson. It was three other fellowsâ€"Scotty Wilâ€" son the barber, Scotty Wilson cof the pcst cffice staff, and Scotty Wil on of the Dominion Bank staff. If Louis Neville‘s connection with that Scottish story were merely inâ€" cidental and accidental, his work to Mr. Vshinsky rather gave the game away when he admitted that his big talk about Russia‘s peaceful use of atomic energy was based on no personal knowledge but wholly on a)wild.news dispatch from Tass. Repeated Amerit¢an pounding of Russia for blocking controls also begins to sound like a cracked record. The public might well ask Washington for less atomic propaganda and niore cooperation with Birtain and Cana@a .to spegd atomic proâ€" gress, particularly in industry.â€"The Christian Science Monitor.
