i] Austria Maintains Unity Des First to Resist Soviet Pressure For Moscow Rule By HUBERT Vienna, Dec. 1-- (Reuters HARRISON ) -- Austria is unique in the post-war world, not only for maintaining her unity despite division by Russian and western occupation, but for being the only country where resistance has been put up against Russian 'designs in regions under Soviet control. Vice-Chancellor Adolf Shaerf stressed this in a speech following the recent Commun ist-instigated attempt to dis- turb the economy and political life of the country by wide- spread strikes and demonstrations. It was the first time since 1945, said Shaerf, that Austrians have" actively crushed movements favor-| ed by the Russians instead. of passively accepting them. It was the first time railwaymen, police, or postmen in the Russian zone' had taken measures against "demonstrators and saboteurs who felt themselves to be under the protection of the Russians." It has never happened in Hun- gary, Romania, Czechoslovakia or Eastern Germany. The people in those countries have never revolt- ed against a Soviet-inspired move- ment or prevented it from achiev- ing its objectives. What Did Happen? What did happen in Austria dur- ing the first week in October this year? Was there really an attempt to overthrow the government and set up a "people's democracy?" Were the lurid accounts in some sections of the foreign press ac- curate or not? Perhaps these questions 'will never be satisfactor- ily answered. . Communist leaders claim it was simply the legal strike weapon be- ing employed by the workers to prevent "an attack upon their standard of living." They claim the government blew the affair up and then crushed it by the use of brutal force through police and socialist "defence corps." Johann Boehm, president of the Austrian trade union federation, on the other hand, claimed: "We have infallible proofs that the aim of the Communist efforts was the establishment of a people's demo- cracy." ; 4 Government Version A government proclamation state ed: "An assault, was made on Austria and her "economy, carried out by irresponsible elements, frus- trated by virtue of the decisive re- sistance of the population and the courageous actions of the security forces."

Officials of the People's Party, the largest parliamentary party which with the Socialists forms the coalition government, have pointed out also that this was much more {than a mere legal strike. { The activities-of the strikers and the well-organized motorized bands which carried out the sabotage had obviously been well planned. They were moves laid down in any text book on revolutionary action. How It Was Worked The occupation 8f post offices, railway stations, telephone ex- changes, and other such points by workers not working in those establishments, it is claimed, had nothing to do with strike activity.

A GENERA AE: * DONALD WHITBY, ONTARIO L MOTORS VALUES -- VROLET Canada Extends Worldwide Service in Finnish Program By HARRY ECCLES Canadian Press Staff Writer Toronto--(CP) -- Another lan- guage, Finnish, has been added to those in which the CBC's inter- national service broadcasts daily to the world from its big transmitters at Sackville, NB. Regular weekly transmissions to Finland with a half-hour program on Sun- day, Dec, 3. Test transmissions showed that considerable interest in broadcasts from Canada exists among Finnish radio listeners. As Finland is bi- lingual 'a part of the broadcasts will be in Swedish. This makes 13 different lan- guages in the international short wave service. The others are Eng- lish, French, German, Dutch Czech, Slovak, Swedish, Norwegian, Dan- ish, Italian, Spanish and Portu- gese. A 14th, Russian, will be add- ed to the schedule in January. In international radio the CBC long has been receiving, as well as sending. A specially-equipped short wave receiving station was set up in 1933 at Britannia Heights, 10 miles from Ottawa, and over- seas programs are monitored on a regular schedule. In the last war the station specialized in analysis of enemy broadcasts, and its chief function now is to relay British and French programs to Canadian networks. ' Canadian Record A Canadian orchestra, the Little Symphonies of Montreal, has established an unusual record by completing its 100th weekly con- secutive series of programs design- ed especially for radjo listeners. The concerts originally were for the French network\ of the CBC, Lg but proved so popular that they were carried to the rest of Canada and to the Mutual Broadcasting System in the United States. The orchestra, which aims at tracing the development of modern sym- phonic music from its origins in the 17th century, has presented many of the lesser-known sym- phonic works. Roland Leduc has been the per- manent conductor from the begin- ning, and Albert Chamberland the producer, Incidentally a private group of stations in Quebec has formed it- self into the second French net- viork under the firm name of French Radio Associates . Ltd. Given the green light by the CBC, the six stations have reached the point where they now are broad- casting commercials for a dozen national sponsors. The stations involved are CKLYV, Verdun; CKCV, Quebec; CHLT, Sherbrooke; CHEF, Granby; CJSO, Sorel, and CHLN, Three Rivers. Two supplementary stations are CHRL, Roberval, and CHGB, St. Anne De La Pocatiere. In 1949 they broadcast 44 hours of com- mercial programs and 132); hours of sustaining. This year, up to November, they had 130 hours of sponsored programs and 133 hours sustaining. Spot Coverage The tragic explosion and fire which wrecked a hotel at Leduc, Alta., with 10 lives lost and 16 in- jured, was given on-the-spot coverage by station CKRD of Red Deer, Alta.

PERCY, Correspondent Myrtle Station, Nov. 30--On Sunday Nov. 26 the church was the scene of a christening of Dor- othy Irene Downey, fourth daugh- ter of Mr. and Mrs. Allan Downey, by Rev. M. C. Fisher. Mr. Fisher read as his Scripture reading, the passage telling of St. Paul's talk to those' who had just became Christians. "We preach Christ and Him crucified," he said, "Some of the Greeks who were not engaged in works used to have discussions or long drawn talks which would leave many thoughts for food. Just as water gathers as it runs its course, so does Christianity gather as time goes on. 'We believe. there is 'a Christ. We believe the things we are told of His doings. Are we too busy to read the Bible? Is Can- ada a Ohristian land? There are many different kinds of people, the good, the medium, the foolish who spend their. week ends in drink- ing and on Monday morning find themselves in the courts. Let us live cur lives so that people who may copy our doings may not be misled." Saerement of the Lord's supper was observed at the conclusion, The choir sang "Jesus and I."
