Their in- tense pride in their unit, their af- fection and respect for fellow of- ficers and men are a natural block to objectivity. Capt. Kim Beattie has let the facts tell the story for him in Dileas, a History of the 48th Highlanders of Canada, 1929-1956. From these facts emerge justifi- cation for the author's pride in the 48th, so evident throughout the history's more than 800 pages. Capt. Beattie, a regimental of- ficer with the 15th Battalion CEF (48th Highlanders) in the First World War and a Canadian army public relations officer in the sec- ond, has written with the author- ity of one long-acquainted with his subject Dileas is his second history of the Toronto regiment, his earlier book tracing its history from its birth in 1891 through the first war GAELIC WORD Dileas is a Gaelic word taken from the regimental motto Dileas gu Brath (faithful forever). To the regiment the word came to represent all that discipline, cour- age and morale can create in a fighting soldier. The 48th Highlanders were one of the great fighting battalions of Canada's 1st Division. They were among the early Canadian ar- rivals in the United Kingdom, were rushed to France after Dun- kerque and withdrawn without seeing action, then spent three long years in England until their division went to the Maediter- ranean for the invasion of Sicily, July 10, 1943 Capt, Beattie tells of the grad- ual conversion into soldiers of the elvilians who joined the 48th at the outbreak of war and then fol- lows them and their successors in relation to the other eight that through heat, dust and squalor lof Sicily, the frustrations and glories--and the mud--of Italy, to the final mop-up operations in the Netherlands in the closing weeks of the war. | Fortunate in their leadership, the 48th were singularly success- ful in battle and Capt. Beatties descriptions of the fighting, par- ticularly around Ortona and in the Hitler and Gothic lines in Italy, ! bring the war close to the reader, Dileas was published by the 48th Highlanders Association. SUPER-STATE TREND Alarmed by the current trend of countries to merge, federate lor unite into still larger states, political scientist Leopold Kohr has written a resounding "halt!" In the name of civilization, cul- ture and peaceful international god order, he asks that the pro- cess be reversed. In The Breakdown of Nations, (British Book Service) Austrian- born professor Kohr's thesis is that super states cramp individ- ual freedom, set materialistic values and have appetites that make wars all but inevitable. Small states, on the other hand, are well ordered, live peaceably and foster culture. Federations, he says in the 244- page thesis, should include no state with preponderate influence over the others, Such candidates first should be fragmented, re- ducing them to size comparable to the rest. Several pages of maps show how the world would look, were it possible to implement his theories. Listing Canada among several examples of small-state structure (his others include Argentina, Brazil, Mexico, Venezuela ahd Australia), Professor Kohr says the principle has been less suc- cessful in Canada because it has not been applied here "with the necessary clinical detachment."
