Four-Week Armistice Lessens Danger of War. By DEWITT MACKENZIE Associated Press News Analyst Agreement for a four-week armis- tice in the Arab-Jewish war will, if made to stick, be a matter of ex- treme gratification from several viewpoints: 1, For at least that period the danger of another world war grow- ing out of the smaller conflict will be greatly lessened. 2. Even a brief cessation in the bloodshed and senseless destruction of relics which are sacred to three great religions will be a Godsend. 3. It will have asserted the alith- ority of a hitherto divided and weak United Nations. 4. Within that month some sort of bargain perhaps might be made between the Jews and the Arabs. Of course, the Arabs insist that they won't recognize the new Jew- ish State of Israel and that it must be abolished. However, the creation of Israel is a fait accompli; a fact which is confirmed through its recognition by 10 countries includ- ing the United States and Russia. Now no gone questions the bravery of the Arabs or their willingness to fight. Still one does question the wisdom of trying to settle by the sword an argument whose end can- not be foreseen but might be a global conflagration which would: wreck the hopes of both Arabs and Jews. Therefore one returns cautiously to speculation heard in informed quarters that, when all is said and done, some sort of compromise may be made between the Arabs and the Jews. This speculation revolves in part about King Abdullah of Trans- Jordan, Commander-in-Chief of all Arab armies attacking Palestine. Abdullah is the outstanding Arab personality involved in the conflict and his own army is the most powerful fighting force of all those involved. Some observers hold the view that he might be inclined to bargain with the Jews, unless the opposition of the other Arab states is too strong. Moreover, Abdullah is under heavy obligation to Britaim. His Legion is British-trained, British- equipped and British - officered, having been created under treaty' to maintain order among the wild tribesmen along the - Palestine | frontier. He also receives an annual | subsidy of about £2,000,000 ($8,- 000,000). | Since Britain is anxious for peace | in Palestine, one must assume that | Abdullah would like to fall in line. Presumably his attitude would be influenced greatly by its effect on his prestige with the other Arab states. To sum up, the question of whether mediation can achieve a | compromise is purely a matter of | speculation. Certainly the U.N. Presenting Play hope of peace.

We believe in "PEOPLE FIRST". That means government for ALL the people. It means government that will help the aged, the needy, the handicapped as well as those more fortunate. Is that the kind of government we have had in Ontario? What are the conditions we find today? Thousands of our people, having given their +8 best years to this province, are eking out a bare existence on a miserably inadequate a $25,000,000 surplus. . and better way of life?

Naturally the Ontario Federation of Labour supports us. It knows that if we form the next government of Ontario, it will be able to state its views to an administration that hopelessly prejudiced against it beforehand. The CCF is not, and has never been, the bond- servant of privileged groups. It can take office and govern, free of any pledges to extend particu- .. no need to go to court business through control of commercial rents.
