Particularly is this the case for the people of Canada. Living as we do. in an age which is providing us with undreamed-of luxuries and unbelievable promises for the Suture, the person who is of thoughtful bent can so easily think ahead to the and horrible end of all this 'blessedness. For eight years we have been faced with the imponderable problem of what the Soviets intend to do. Should the answer be war. our generation would never know ease or plenty again. All too many of us have sub- consciously fallen into the belief that such a war is in- evitable. New, coinciding with Easter, we have the first hope- ful words from the new regime in Russia. Though we are all sceptical about the dependability of Russian words, our leaders have been offered new opportunities to negotiate a peace in Korea: the Soviet government has issued a general amnesty to minor offenders in their jails and con- centration camps, and in all they are giving every visible evidence of wanting to improve relations with other na- tions. No one in the Western world could be blamed for scepticism where the Russians are concerned, for their previous dealings have left them with such a record of broken promises and double talk that it will take many years of honest behaviour to eradicate the memory.
