• It means furthermore that there, is
little hope for any genuine co -opera-'
tion:between the Soviet Union and
the western powers, net 'for lack of
approach on their part, :Pat because
"it takes two to make friends." And
this, according to Mr. Winterton, is
not, the , Soviet idea of friendship.
Invisible Fence •
• All his, experience iii Russia forced
one conclusion upon brim --that the
Soviet Union, because of fear. and)
suspicion, will nota.allow the contacts
necessary to friendship, or the spread
of knowledge upon which it .must be
based. "An of us, in our various
ways, tried. But • an invisible fence,
sprang up around tis directly we got
to Russia, and . it moved with us
wherever we went."
To Russia, Anglo -Soviet co-opera-
that
any other co-operation for
that matter—means that -when they
want something 'we should give it
and whe i they do ,not we should stand
out of the way.,
Russian policy 'throughout the war
was devoted to developing this prin-
ciple. News of Britain and the al-'
lied countries was held to a minimum
while every effort was made to ea
courage the opposite. While, anted
newspaperswere packed, with news
of'the Soviet Union and a "deep res-
ervoir of goodwill" was being devel-
oped towards that country, nothing
of a similar nature was ahl-'owed
Russia.
The only publication, devoted to
presenting the allied side was British
Ally, a twelve -page illustrated paper,
whose circulation was held :to 50,000
in a nation of •190 millions. More-
over, unlikesimilar periodicals in the
allied countries .which presented ,the
Soviet view, British Ally contained no
controversial material.
' A Slight Comparison
„ Furthermore the Soviet radio used
no British or allied feature material.
Against .this Winterton himself did
over 500 four -minute .,,broadcasts, for
the B.B.C. from Moseow. Even a
Small library which the British at-
tempted to instals .,in Moscow was
curtailed, censored and finally closed,
not directly but by a simple expedi-
ent of encouraging the. Russian peo-
ple not to use its facilities.
War new was handled on a -simi-
lar basis. At no time • did the Rus-
sian people receive any indication of
the part the allies 'played. They were
encouraged through every' means at
the • +disposal of the Soviet govern-
ment to believe that Russia was fight-
ing,
ghting, and winning, the war single-hand-
ed.
.A grudging and fleeting recognition
was given to major events. Before
the invasion of the continent,' there
was constant reference to the failure
of .the allies, to lend support. Mont-
gomery's desert campaignwas dis-
missed; 'allied bombing of Germany'
almost ignored; British efforts to run
supplies to Murmansk mentionedon-
ly
nly on praise of the .Soviet navy's part
in them.
The fall. of Roane received half a
column of inconsequential reporting.
The surrender of Italy Was eovered
in Red Star; the Soviet Army news=
paper, in a small item with a tiny.
headline; the -liberation of Paris in•a.
four -inch paragraph •,With no indica-
tion that British or American. troops
bad .played., any part in it.
The American destruction of Ger-
man forces in the Rhine -Moselle tri-
angle—one of the must spectacular
incidents in the , war—the Remagen
bridgehead, • the fall of - Coblenz,
Werms, Kaiserlauten and Ludwigs-
hafen with the capture o8 thousa.nds'
of enemy troops was' reported in Red
Star as follows: March 14, 18 lines;
March 15, 33; 'March 16, 21; March,
18, 201 March 2Q, 27; March 21,, 23,
March 22, 31. There was no map and
no explanatory copy.
"Never in thea history of joint . mili-
tary operations," writes Mr. Winter-
ton, "have the spectacular and final-•
ly decisive achievements of a coup,
tryis allies been so deliberately, con-
sistently and dishonestly hushed up."
It was impossible to do a good
straight forward job of reporting.
Correspondents were not •allowed
bear the. front lines. They had no
contacts they' could go to for infor-
mation in Moscow. Maps were not
supplied nor was there proper, identi-
fication of areas of combat. The press
department was understaffed, ineffici-
ent, uninterested, lacking in author-
ity and frequently obstructive. It suf-
fered, as one correspondent' noted bit-
terly, from a form of "galloping par-
alysis."
Censorship was not censorship as
allied correspondents•' were 'aocustorh-
ed .to in'Europe, Inneswere deleted

Tobacco Is Now
Ontario's Largest
Single Cash Crop.
(By Alex danusitis)
A new $2,400,000 building towers
today over what was- once'regarded
as sandy wasteland in Southwestern
Ontario—a symbol of the "coming of
age" of Canada's tobacco industry.
. A quarter of a century ago, farm-
ers
armers stared in disemiragement at the
shifting sands covering a wide. belt of
land stretching ,east from Lake- Erie,
embracing '• portions 'of, Norfolk and
surrounding counties.
•Then, two men set a new kind of
plant 4n the sandy soil. It produced.
luxuriant leaves that were hung • in a
strange -looking barn for curing:+
The two men were William L. Pel-
ton and Henry Freeman, the first to
successfully grow flue -cured tobacco
in Canada on a commercial basis.
Soon they began buying up farms in
the area to experiment on a wider
basis.. Farmers, tired of. Sighting the
shifting sande, offered their land glad-
ly' at -$10 an acre.
Today, the land is among the most
valuable in Oanada selling as high
'as $500 an acre. •

Market Fpr• Alt Crop
There is'a. ready market for all the
tobacco grown in ,Canada, either at
home or abroad, and the tobacco in-
dustry is an important factor in the
nation's • economy. '
Last year Canadian smokers con-
sumed
onsumed about 15,000,000,000 cigarettes, -
210,000;000 cigars, and more thair 30:-
000,000
0,000,000 pounds of pipe tobacco.
To help meet4the demand 100,000•
acres were planted to tobacco in On-
tario alone this year. From them
came a crop of 90,000,000 pounds,
worth $30,000,000.to•the growers, The
crop made Canada self-sufficient in
flue -cured tobacco and ready to reach
out for export markets.
To handle the manufacturing side
of the tobacco, about 70 factories em-
ploy more than 11,000 men and wo-
men and pay them $20^000,000 a year
to make the leaf tobacco into -cigar-
ettes, cigars. and other types of fin-,
ished smoking mixtures.

The Imperial Leaf Tobacco Com
parry has boilt a $2,000,000 processing
plan at Aylmer, Ont., in the heart of.
Ontario's tobacco belt;' to handle the
vastly increased crop. It is regarded
as the largest and most modern im
the world.
Of an the crops growing in the var-
iable soils of Canada, tobacco is re-
garded as the one with the brightest
;future,' at home and 'abroad. About
15,500;000 pounds was shipped out -of
the country Iasi year. Two-thiirds of
this went •toGreat Britain, where it
coliainands a high price because of
its quality and preferential Empire
tariffs.
Canadian manufacturers 'arenot
worried over future . 'export markets.
Canadians have become fond of their
homegrown tobacco and can consume
all that .is grown.
"1 . don't thank any branch of our
agricultural industry can. see ahead
of it such bright prospects for con-
tinued good markets as can the_to-
bacco industry," is the way T. L, IOU;

puts it.
