The Seaforth News, 1949-03-24, Page 2WHAT GOES ON WODLDi dyNor(nanBlair FRANCE AND ITALY The French and Italian Com- munist parties have a membership of not far short of three and a half million, and in both countries they have large blocs of seats fn Parlia- ment. Corl$munists also control much of the organized labor, and there are party members and sym- pathizers in the two countries' armies and civil services. So when there is a Communist move in either France or Italy, it means something far more serious than it would on this side of the Atlantic. And just a vtiteek or so ago chieftains of the French and Italian CP's said, in effect, that if Russia invaded those countries, the Com- munists must side with Stalin's armies, Just why such statements should be made at this time is not quite clear—but there is a general feeling that they are part of the Communist effort to discredit the North At- lantic Pact. Maurice Thorez, Secretary Gen- eral of the French Communist Party, did not mince words. "If our country should be dragged, against its will, into a war against the Soviet Union," he declared, "and if the Soviet Army, defending the cause of freedom and socialism, should be brought to pursue the aggressors. onto our soil, could the workers and people of France have any other attitude toward the Soviet Army than has been that of the people of Poland, Rumania and Yugoslavia." In the debate which followed in the French National Assembly, the attitude of the anti-Communists was bitter and many called the Thorez statement treasonable, Pre- mier Queullle even threatened to take legal steps against Communist chieftains for "trying to undermine the morale of the nation and the army." The upshot of the debate was a majority resolution condemn- ing Thorez, saying that his words were an insult to patriots who had given their lives to defend France's Independence. In Italy, the Communist chief- tain Togliatti spoke, if few days Later, in almost identical terms, "I think that the Italian people— would have the evident duty to aid in the most efficient way the Soviet Army in order to give the aggressor the lesson he deserves," he stated. These two statements are being Interpreted in th light of the great East-West struggle. Both the French and Italian Communists • are playing en the people's fear of being caught in another war. Thorez and Togliatti are apparently trying to hammer home the Idea that the North Atlantic Alliance is e move toward such a war, and must be opposed. They also seem to be pointing up that fact that— In case of war—France and Italy would be torn by a terrible civic conflict. GERMANY When a British film organization made, a moving picture of "Oliver Twist' the character of Fagin was based upon a picture drawn by George Cruikshank for the first illustrated edition of Dickens' famous novel. Last fall, when the movie was scheduled for release in the United States, there were so many Jewish protests against the Pugin characterization that the dis- tributors deferred its release in- definitely. To those in Canada and other countries who saw the film, this aimed to be stirring up a "tempest h1 a teapot". After all, Fagin was the only Jew—and there were a dozen or more characters of Eng- dish origin portrayed as just as re- pulsive as he, without any patriotic protests from the Mother Country. However, •"Oliver Twist" seems destined—in this film version—to cause real trouble. A Sunday or so ago the picture was presented in Berlin, where anti-Semitism is still A strong force. The showing was interrupted by a' demonstration staged by displaced persons and Berliners—and at a second showing on the Monday a group of some fifty Jews charged police lines and, after a short but violent riot, forced the management to cancel the show: The film has now been withdrawn from German circulation -possibly with good reason. One correspond- ent said that showing such a pic- ture in post -Nazi Germany was "too much like leaving a bottle of whiskey in front of a recently "cured' alcoholic." Man's Best Friend Musician Arthur Nikisch used to be stopped on the setreet by in- numerable admirers. Swooning la- dies would kiss his hand and tear pieces of his garments' from his body. They even begged for locks of his hair.' To this last request he was always amenable, mailing a dew strands to each admiring appli- cant. "At this rate," a friend warned him, "you will grow bald in no time." "Not 1," Nikisch answered with a wink. "My doge" It's All Done With '`Mirrors"—Martha .Mitchell isn't really skiing in the sky. It's' simply that the cloudy sky above is reflected in the clear water over which she glides. P,ORT y /a SLXSITC Although, as we tap out these lines with two long-suffering fingers, the professional hockey races haven't by any means been decided yet„ already the baseballists are beginning to work out the kinks from arrn muscles weary with the toil of lifting food from table to mouth at between -season banquets, also stomach muscles even more weary with the labor of trying to digest fried chicken and other comestibles served at such orgies. • * * And with the hockey moguls promising to lengthen out still further their season, the golden era is fairly in sight—that much yearn- ed -after time when we shall be able to enjoy baseball every afternoon and hockey every night, all the year through. (We're trying to think of an apt quotation to .stick in Here, but the only one which comes read- ily to mind is the one that begins "Oh, Death where is thy—"). But that isn't what we started to talk about. Fired by the success of our amazing January prediction that the TorontoMaple Leafs \ ap ea s would positively make the playoffs, we now give the faithful old crystal ball a few .,preliminary spins and take a gander into the future, especially as regards Big League ball. * * * In the American League, we might tell you that Cleveland In- dians, New York Yankees and Bos- ton Red Sox appear to be strictly contenders; but, heck, any of the minor prophets—the lads whose names you used to forget in Sunday School when asked to name the Books of the Bible -could have dished out that sort of information. „ * * * Always original—even at the ex- pense of trying to write common sense at times—we are tipping you to keep your eye on the outfit known as The Philadelphia Ath- letics as a distinct possibility of taking it all. (Two minutes out here for loud, raucous laughter.) * * But such a prediction isn't as wide of the mark as, at first glance, it might seem, Last year the Ath- letics were in and out of top posi- tion all through the inonth of May stuck within g reaching distance h throughout August, and only faded in the stretch run. And Mr. Mack still has a Pitching staff—Phil Marchildon, Dick Fowler, Joe Cole- man, Lou Brissie, Carl „Scheib and a few like that—which is a distinct refutation of the old turf adage that "you can't keep a fast horse in a poor (paying) man's stable," * * With just a little more hitting power to back that sort of pitching up, the Athletics might very well have travelled the entire distance on top last season. And the canny Conny Mack seems to have gather- ed Just that bit of extra power, notably in Taft Wright, who used to smack out a lot of long balls for the Chicago White Sox, likewise Wally Moses, who will play a pinch-hitting role for Philadelphia, and could very well break up more than one close struggle, - * * * So don't put down our hint 'lo watch the Athletics this coming season as just the idle wanderings of a morbid imagination. In fact if you hear of any of the future books offering—say--=-31 to 1 or better against them, take a couple of tickets on our behalf. We'll posi- tively pay off just as soon as we get the proceeds front that Irish Sweepstakes receipt we're treasur- ing so carefully.' * * * In the National League, were asking you to take a glance now o7ad then at the progres9 of a m 1 asttftled tire Chicago Cuba, No— we're not saying that a club which finished a lovely last in 1948, trail- ing the Boston Braves by 27% games, will all of of sudden float to the very top, Still, unless we're more mistaken than is customary, those sante Cubs won't finish the current scamper way down in the cellar. * * * The Cubs have been doing con- siderable trading and purchasing during the - off months, and their infield should be a whole lot strong- er. They will have the veteran Frankie Gustine—a great early - season hitter -at third, which will let Andy Pafko go to the outfield, where he belongs. And Emil Ver - ban, at second, should be far more of a help this season; as he only joined the club about halfway through last year's. * * * And. the Cubs have made what appear to be tremendous strides toward greater ntound strength, They have a fine lot of rookies, and hays coralled two capable starters in old Dutch Leonard and Walt Dube], There's even a :possibility that the n a ancient Mort Cooper might don a Cubs unie, and pitch a few wins for Charlie Grimm. * * * So, between now and next Oc- tober, give an occasional look at Chicago Cubs and Philadelphia Athletics, is the nearest to feed -box info we can hand you right now. Yoti may not be following ,two pennant winners—but we think they'll be a couple of clubs who will provide you with plenty of action and interest.
