Uray and Miss Winnie Gray. the program of the C.C The C.'C.F. can find ion in the knowledge that its opponents apparently fail answer its -arguments on a logi­ cal basis and are forced to resort to scare mongering and misrep­ resentation. In all your raving about dic­ tatorship, communism and what not, you conveniently overlook the fact that the C.C.F. is the only political. party in Canada Which is democratically control­ led. Membership, in the C.C.F. consists of farmers, small busi­ ness men, industrial workers and professional men. The C.C.F. is financed and controlled, exclus­ ively by these .people, unlike either the Liberal or Progressive Conservative parties the C.C.F. holds provincial conventions an­ nually and national conventions bi-a-nnually. At these conventions the rank and file members through their delegates deter­ mine the policy of their party and elect their leaders. .These leaders must abide by this policy at all times. The C.C.F. is the only party in Canada that does not accept contributions to its financial campaign funds from large influential -corporations, it relies entirely for this support on the dollar bills contributed by the small (fry) or people for whose interests they are chiefly striving to protect. The letters “C.C.F.” stand for Co-Operative Commonwealth Federation, this name gives the keynote of the C.C.F. program. The C.C.F. be­ lieves in Co-Operation in spite of all the talk we hear about rugg­ ed individualism, the fact is none of ,us could survive without co­ operation The C.C.F. believes in extending this principal of co-operation, it believes if wk co-operate through our federal, provincial and 'municipal govern­ ments, and through farm organ­ izations, trade unions and co­ operatives we -can achieve the highest* possible standards . of living and the .greatest possible measure * o f security for all people. This is wltiOris- meant by planning to which you refer with such contempt. No one' would think of running his own busi­ ness or farming operations with­ out planning, but you suggest that the affairs of our nation should be carried on in a hit and miss way without .any plan­ ning whatever. That method has been tried and has produced nothing but chaos. In the last twenty years we had a major depression followed by prosperity which was produced solely ,by war and the aftermath of war. If we have to depend on wars for prosperity, . it is surely a time for a change. Your attempt to link the CCF with communism comes badly from a Liberal paper because in the 1945 election the Liberal party was offered and accepted the support of the communists after the C.C.F. .turned them down flat. Your knowledge of present day affairs must be limi­ ted and your knowlege of .this history absolutely nil, w^ien you try to link the C.C.F* with com­ munism or connect it with Karl Miarx doctrine. It springs from the democratic socialist tradition of Great Britain which had its origin half a .century before Marx and which has always been at odds With Marxism. It is this same democratic socialist tradi­ tion which is the main bulwark against communism, in Europe today. In countries like Britain where democratic socialism is strong there’ is little threat of communism. I n Berlin, demo­ cratic’ socialists are risking their lives to spearhead the. resistance to communism, and in Hitler’s day these same democratic social­ ists in Germany were in con­ centration -camps, while people of a “conservative” and “liberal” frame o f mind were heiling Hitler there. In spite of your .gross misrep­ resentation of a statement by Roy Knight M.F. there is nothing incompatible between economic planning and freedom, in fact you cannot have true freedom without planning. No man can be free under our present system of economic chaos where we are constantly labouring under fear* that tomorrow we may not be able to provide for ourselves attd our families because of un­ employment, sickness, or old age. President Roosevelt spoke of freedom from fear and freedom from want, we have .achieved neither of these freedoms under out free enterprise system which is nothing short 0 f mOnoply capitalism.Through the O.C.F, govern­ ment the people ban by co­ operative effort eliminate in­ security and want, and thus achieve true freedom hi Canada for all classes.
