—GOLDWATER MAKES IT --
Senator Barry Goldwater's
victory in the California Repub-
Bean primary, as narrow as it
was, virtually assures his nomi-
nation for president. It also
will probably wreck the Repub-
lican party, sending the two-
party system in the United
States into the twilight for the
next four or eight years,
To many Canadians, it seemed
fantastic that the wildly ex-
tremist Goldwater would have
ever been a serious candidate
for the Republican presidential
nomination.
But American politics makes
a fertile field for extremism.
The average Canadian has little
idea of how widespread the far
right winghas become in the
U.S. in recent years.
The right wing, of which
Goldwater became the ready
spokesman, was made up of
otherwise intelligent people
who were, more than anything,
perplexed by the refusal of the
rest of the world to ardently
embrace their concept of Amer-
icanism. They became disillus-
ioned with the United Nations,
tired of fighting brush -fire wars
in far-off lands, and anxious for
a quick and easy victory over
Communism.
The late John Kennedy was
the first president to warn his
fellow Americans in blunt
terms that he had to expect di-
versity in today's world and
that the U.S. could not expect
to re -make the rest of the world
in its own image.
President Johnson is carry-
ing forward this theme.
It was Goldwater's extreme
statements about using atom
bombs in Vietnam to "defoliate
the jungles" which at last con-
vinced thoughtful Americans
that here was a dangerous and
impulsive man, whose political
philosophy, if he had one, was
far -removed from the main-
stream of progressive America.
But apparently this was not
good enough for the radical
right in California. Gov. Gold-
water now goes into the Repub-
lican convention at San Fran-
cisco next month virtually un-
stoppable in his pursuit of the
nomination.
On the convention's opening
day at the Cow Palace, Sen.
Goldwater will have around 600
assured votes of the 655 needed
to nominate. As his total.

the states, there will likely be
last-minute switches and he
could be over the top by the
time Wisconsin's delegation
casts its ballots.
The liberal forces in the Re-
publican party, centred around
Gov. Rockefeller a n d Gov.
Lodge, will be powerless to halt
the Goldwater juggernaut.
It can reasonably be asked,
what is it that Mr. Goldwater
has on Republican delegates
that they would choose a man
who is obviously not the prefer-
ence of a majority of rank -and -
file voters, as indicated by his
long succession of primary de-
feats prior to California.
The answer can only be that
like the lemming, they go joy-
fully to their oblivion, unmind-
ful of the common suicide on
which they are so intent.
The Goldwater nomination
makes no sense whatever in
present-day America. Progres-
sive Republicans will desert the
party. He will drag down to de-
feat many capable Congression-
al •candidates. The Goldwater
nomination will send the Re-
publican party into eclipse for
many years to come. And per-
haps this isn't such a bad thing.

Brother Andre
Alfred loved to be in com-
pany of all, he had a desire to
converse with tradesmen and
other professions. Though not
educated, he was intelligent and
gifted with ready speech on any
topic of the day. Many times
he was confronted with ques-
tions as to his worldly views
which he ably answered in an
astonishing manner.
Atfer his twenty-first year,
like many other French-Cana-
dian boys, he had decided to
migrate to the United States,
landing in New England, spend-
ing much of his time at differ-
ent work to provide for his liv-
ing. A few years later he re-
turned to his native ]and, ill -
contented.
With his adventures, all of it
seemed gloomy to him with no
encouraging results. It was then
he decided in earnest to seek
for his vocation, by correspond-
ing with the parish ;priest. His
youth record was good and the
priest gave him a good recom-
mendation to the religious au-
thority, and permission was
granted him for his religious
desire. He had finally made
his decision, leaving behind his
tradesman work.
At the age of twentfive, he
went to Montreal but his stay
was short, he was then trans-
ferred to St, Laurent, a new
house just opened. At that
time Alfred had already gained
wide fame and was known to
be of a religious type, and the
priests hacl already put their
confidence in him,
