Erected In Honor of the Canadian troops who fought their way into the city and liberated the townfolk •in 1944, "Canada”
bridge at Bruges, Belgium, shown here, was recently dedicated to perpetuate the memory of the men who fell 11 in action.
Victor Dore, Canadian ambassador; and Maj, -Gen H. W. Foster, who commanded brigade, were on hand.
Palestine
There is an ironic significance
in the fact that the quotation about
"sowing the wind and reaping the
whirlwind" should come from The
Book which is largely concerned
with the history of the Jewish
people.
When the Stern Gang and other
Palestine terrorists were torturing
and murdering British soldiers; who
had been guilty of nothing but do-
ing their sworn duty, there was
little or no general condemnation of
such acts by Zionists and their sym-
pathizers in other parts of the world,
and especially in the United States.
Air commentators, newspapers and
magazines south of the border held
then] up as heroes and gloried in
their deeds. But now the picture has
changed.
For not only in official Israel
circles, but also in the opinion of
most expert observers, there is the
belief that with the foul murder of
Count Folke Bernadotte, the Un-
ited Nations official mediator, the
Jewish cause bas received a terrible
blow.
Hopes for gaining admission to
United Nations membership for Is-
rael at the present have been great-
ly shaken. That the killing of Bern-
adotte was not the impulsive act of
some hot -head, but something long
ax~
Count Folke Bernadotte
and carefully planned, is almost cer-
tain. For weeks rumors had been
circulating in Palestine that the
idnunt W66 fdl'4rke11 fgr ljealili tt
although Many of tis cooler minded
Jews condemned such rumors as
fantastic, killed he was. Had Count
Bernadotte been representing mere-
ly one nation in Palestine his mur-
der would have been, politically
speaking, serious enough. But he
was there, in theory at least, as the
representative of all fifty-eight of
the United Nations. Now assembled
in Paris, and with plenty of other
and even graver matters to occupy
their minds, are the delegates from
those fifty-eight going to accept into
hill membership a people claiming
to be a nation, but wTie're sucl
thing could happen.
Just what those who planned it
hoped to accomplish by the assassin-
?2ion of Bernadotte nobody, possib-
,, will yyeyer knowy
cel
• xtnfy, Tit ane theory s that We
5hernist leaders, convinced that
NormanBlat>7
nothing good could conte for a Jew-
ish state from the western countries,
wanted to prove to Soviet Russia
—whose alliance and support they
were seeking—that although they
aught be extreme nationalists, they
could still be most useful to the
Russian cause elsewhere. •
Anyway it is significant that when
all the rest of the civilized world
was expressing sorrow over Bern-
adotte's passing, a Soviet spokesman
said—in that charming Russian
manner—"He had no business being
where he was."
Korea
From Moscow came the dramatic
announcement that Russia intends
to get its troops out of Korea by
January, and hoped that the United
States would follow suit. And from
Washington came the prompt reply
that the United States was keeping
its troops in Korea until the affairs
of that country are settled by the
United Nations and—in diplomatic
language, of course—that if Russia
didn't like it she could lump it.
The fact that the Russians an-
nounced their intention to evacuate
Northern Korea right on the eve of
the Paris Assembly seems to indi-
cate the purley propaganda purposes
of 'that action. It put the Kremlin
in the position of being able to cap-
italize its peaceful intentions toward
the rest of the world; and it would
be no great surprise to see the So-
viets pressing strongly for full Allied
evacuation of Germany.
Perhaps, by the time this is read,
that action will already have been
taken. Possibly, on the other hand,
by that time the Russians will have
picked up their marbles and left
Paris in a huff. Anyway, the United
States and Britain seem to be fully
aware that it is one thing for Mos-
cow to pull its troops out of Ger-
many, where they have thoroughly
communized their zone and are re-
ported to have a well organized and
trained German army under cover,
and quite another for the western
AIlies to pull out and leave all Ger-
many to the "mercy" ,of the armed
Communists from the cast.
A showdown must come, sooner
Or later; and it is to be hoped that
' our side wilt show the same "intest-
inal fortitude" in the matter of Ger-
many as Secretary Ivlarshall already
has done in calling the Soviet bluff
over Korea,
The United States
In Washington the Thomas Com-
mittee—which is the short name
for the House Committee on Un-
American Affairs—has been having
a titre time to itself during recent
months, Pgofll� irgn 811 walks of
have 1leen hauled u"p before it,
questioned about every detail of
their past lives and—generally

speaking—left with a smear on their
names.
Whether or not the Committee
has accomplished anything worth
while in uncovering evidence of
"dealing with the enemy" -it's aw-
fully hard these days to remember
that Russia is still, technically at
least, an ally—is very much to be
doubted. However a lot of publicity
seekers and grandstanders got their
names and pictures in the paper'.—
the papers got a lot or ':' -
looking "spy scare" headliners—and
altogether the invest.: •
mittee seemed to be doing abs JI as
much real work as such bodies ever
do on either side of the border.
But now it would appear that
there is another side to the picture.
The United States Government em-
ploys a lot of trained scientists on
atomic energy and other vital pro
sects—and could use a whole lot
more, if it could get them. But not
only are university graduates in
science turning a deaf ear to appeals
to come and work on such projects;
a lot of those already so employed
are quitting the job and going to
work for private enterprise.
The reason? Just because no self-
respecting person likes to think that,
at any time, he may be called up,
grilled, and have his loyalty ques-
tioned just on the word of some
fienne!-mouthed headline -hunter
whorl parliamentary immunity pro-
tects from the possibility of a
libel suit. In at least ,one key instal-
lation of the Atomic Energy Com-
mission the loss of scientific person-
nel has been so drastic and the mor-
ale of those remaining has fallen so
low that there is deep concern as to
whether or not the' project can be
continued.
Distances 'Very
People often ask just what is the
length of a minute, and of a second,
in latitude and longitude; and the
answer really depends on what spot
on earth you're talking about.
Scientists and geographers divid-
ed the equator into 360 degrees,
each degree into 60 nlinuteA, each
minute into 60 seconds. After long
calculations and measurements, it
was decided by inter -national agree-
ment that a degree on. the equator
was 6165 miles. That makes a min-
ute 6,076.007 feet, which is called
a nautical mile, used for measuring
all distances at sea. A second be-
comes 107,208 feet. But the moment
you step off the equator and start
toward either pole, the lines of
longitude, all meeting at the poles,
get closer together. Then your dis-
tance between linesrof longitude be
conies less; at 40 degrees of latitude
for instance, the measurements are:
degree, 53.43 miles; minute, 4,700
feet; second, 61.83 feet. Now take
latitude, measurement of the earth's
surface at right angles to the equa-
tor. That would be simple on a per-
fect sphere. But the earth, whirling
about its polar axis, is not a perfect
sphere. It got fat at the middle and
flat at the ends as inonlentiml tug-
ged at it when it was softer than
now. Thus one degree of latitude
equals 68,704 miles at the equator
but becomes 30.407 at the poles.
Sounds goofy, doesn't it? But that's
the way it works out.
Alfalfa is probably a Spanish ver-
sion of the Arabian word alfacfacab,
which' means "the best fodder."
"I See It, but I Don't Believe It," says little Susan McAra of
North Bay as she looks at the 35-pound,48%-inch musleie
being held up for her inspection. It was caught in Callender
S24-pnd test line. From left: J. N. Beimler of

Prefers "Fresh Air”
To RErssi an Stuff
A Russian officer who claims to
have been a jet propulsion expert
in the Soviet air forces says that he
likes the "fresh ajr" of old England
—also that a lot of his. fellow -conn-
'trymen would like it too. IIe Is
Lieut, Col. Gregory Tolcaev whose
flight from the Soviet military ad-
ministration in Berlin was recently
reported and has now been confirm-
ed by the British Foreign Office.
Colonel Tokaev brought his wife
and 10 -year-old daughter with him.
Appearing at a news con'fernce in
London where he was heckled and
accused of "treachery' by Soviet
press 'representatives, he said:
"Give the Russian people just
one day of Hyde Park, just one
chance at speaking their minds in
public, one free election in the
sense that Great Britain knows it,
and 1 am quite sure 00 per cent of
them will go against the Politburo
and Tess (official Soviet news
agency),"
Declaring the Soviet regime is
"fostering a third world war," Col-
onel Tolcaev said, "I refnse to par-
ticipate in this policy and am going
over to the camp of its most re-
solute* enemies, as long as this
will benefit my people."
