By treachery, trickery and ag- gression, the Reds enslaved Eastern Europe before a trusting world as a whole was awake to this threat from one of the major allies. How- ever, with the full awakening the | democratic countries are solidifying in a manner which couldn't have been foreseen. The Communist scheme of breeding division and discord is back-firing. We see this in the fact that while idealists strove for generations to form a United States of Europe, the Muscovites unwittingly and un- willingly have set such a union well on its way in Western Europe in the brief period since the war. Moreover that's only half the story, for the Soviet policy of aggression has driven Western Europe and the United States together in a man- ner which couldn't have been fore- seen by any stretch of imagination. The nucleus of a possible United States of Europe is the recently formed Western European Union, This comprises Britain, France, Bel- gium, The Netherlands and Lux- embourg. The alliance is econo- mic, military and political. Other countries of West Europe are de- bating affiliation. Today Washington is hard at work on ways and means of associ- ating the United States with this new European bloc which gives real promise of expanding. Conversa- tions between the Union and the State Department are expected to take place soon. Meantime, the MarsHal Plan is swinging into ac- tion and is further drawing the countries of Western Europe to- gether for mutual advantage.

Most Unique Institutions Major developments in the Hous of Commons or in the Senate are generally interpreted by the daily count of what was actually said in "Hansard" -- as it is popularly known in the National Capital and official report of debates of the House of Commons." The same designation is also used for the Senate debates. Issued dally through the King's Printer during the session, Hansard gives the na- tion an almost verbatim record of what their representatjyes are Si ing in the House. | Yet, Hansard is not a real title | and has no official recognition as such. It is so called after Luke Han- sard, first publisher of the printed record of British Pdrliamentary proceedings at the end of the eigh- eenth century. In the course of ev- ents, the name Hansard disappear- ed from the title page of the re- port 'of debates but, like many Bri- tish political traditions, it has re- mained as a familiar destination. Reporting and publishing the House debates is a job which may easily compare to modern newspa- per routine. A staff of experienced reporters' are constantly in the House recording in shorthand al- most every word uttered on the floor. There are six repor.ers to the hour, each taking a turn of ten afternoon 'when the House ordin- arily meets, or from eleven if there are morning sittings, unt adjourn- ment at eleven or later in the eve- ning. ! Back to his office after each stint in the House, the Hansard reporter The typescript is then handed to Ja Debates Editor for final revis- fon, after which it is made ready for the printer. During the evening, copy is sent to the King's Printer from time to time as soon as editing and final revision is completed. There, dur- ing the night, Hansard is set into type, proofread, bound and ready for distribution on the next morn- ing by about ten o'clock. democracy 'in action, --Woodshop --Leathercraft --Boys Boxing 2 = p.m.--Leathercraft day) What to Do To-N, ight RECREATION HEADQUARTERS 100 Gibbs Street DAILY --sShellcrary =-Woodshop --Collegiate-age gym --Collegiate-age drama group ---Ceramics and wood-carving |. for girls and women dally (except Mon- --Junjor Drama --Music and Rhythm Band, Monday and Thursday --Boys Shellcraft, Wednesday. --Woodcarving and Tumbling 7 - 9 pm.--Adult Leathercraft helleraft --Adult Woodworking, Tues- day, Wednesday and Friday =Tomen's Gym Class Tues- =n Mgnt, Friday night Special Eve: he ESnibiyion of Art--The "Painter's Art Layman's Language."

FARM INCOME UP Ottawa, June 26--(CP)--Cash in- come of Canadian farmers from the sale of farm products during the first quarter of 1948 was nearly 13 per cent higher than in the same period last year according to a preliminary estimate by the Bureau of Statistics.

An ex-| tremely interesting and enlighten- | ing record, it is available from the | King's printer at $3.00 per session. | Hansard gets a great deal of pub- licity from the Hansard Society of Canada, Formed some four years ago. and enlarged quite recently, this society strives to popularize Hansard among a far greater num- ber of readers as at present. Similar societies exist in Great Britain, France, Belgium and Italy, and many countries are showing an in- terest. Reporting of the House of Com- mons debates dates back to 1875 when it originated under a contract system. But in 1880, the House de- cided that Hansard should come under its own management. Almost 30 years later, . Britain followed Canada's example largely along the same lines, Hansard is bilingual. Speeches are | recorded in the language in which | they are delivered, whether in Eng- ! lish or in French. A complete | French edition is also published daily. But Hdnsard is more than just a report of debates. It contains a | wealth of information on various subjects of national interest as dis- the age of five. closed in Parliament.

Chattering gaily about the day's events, dg not thinking to look behind, they didn't hear the Montreal-Quebec express approaching in the dis- tance. LEMAY SEES DANGER Charles Lemay, walking along the track with a friend, saw the train and the children at the same time. Realizing tBat the youngsters would not have time to get across, he made a dash for the young pair. He had been about 500 feet from the bridge when he started and by the time he caug} ht up with them they were about half way across. Without saying a word and barely stopping, he swept 4-year- old Roger into his arms and ran ish him to the other end of the Hidge. Then, speeding back, he grabbed d the hi an repeated + + » leaving the iy i in time.' In a matter of seconds the express roared by.
