It is precisely because of the political, social, technical and ° scientific achievements of the Soviet people that we can talk at all of peaceful coexistence. Without the Soviet Union and the self sacrifice of its people there ‘could be no prospect of world peace. This is an object- ive interpretation of it. PEACE BEST ALLY 9. Because of this imperialism cannot freely and without hin- drance give vent to its inherent warlike, violent character. While its innate character hasn't changed its ability to express it has been cut down for all time. This is a demonstrable fact of modern history, as shown in the Korean, Hungarian, Suez, Leban- on and Cuban crises; and it will be shown again and again. It exists, too, quite apart from the subjective views of the Chinese leaders: 3. The fight for peace, peace- ful co-existence and disarmament is not a retreat, rot capitulation, but an anti- imperialist policy of the millions, by the millions, for the millions. In fighting to avert war and to compel the imperialists to come to agree- ments, and in fighting to enforce these agreements, the millions ,in motion actually are engaged, as a matter of contemporary histo- ry, in a fight against the essen- tial, violent nature of imperial- ism, against its very form of ex- istence. That is why peace is the best ally of socialism. OVALTI N E CAFE | 251 EAST HASTINGS Vancouver, B.C. QUALITY SERVICE - - TED HARRIS.

It is precisely because of im- perialism’s _ essentially warlike nature that victories for peace and peaceful coexistence spell ecnstant defeat for it. * Bo * It has been said that the Chi- nese leaders’ position is to be explained by Chinese history, China’s mistreatment at the hands of imperialism, by the non-recognition of China, and so on. Of course, by the same tokens the Soviet Union and Soviet Communists would also have justification for taking a rigid, dogmatic and unrealistic posi- tion, for who have suffered more than the Soviet peoples from death and destruction at imper- ialist hands, from long years of boycott, sabotage and non-recog- nition? : No, matters should not be judged from any such stand- point. Communists are Commu- nists under all conditions, in all countries. They are internation. alists, not nationalists. Marxism is all-powerful because it is true, in China as elsewhere. Once his- torical peculiarities or special problems of this or that country are elevated to principles, and the method of reasoning of Marx- ism, are valid for all countries and all peoples. It is a world science. : “on states that. Caron urges action Charles Caron, Comunist Party candidate in the Coast-Canilano riding in the last Federal elec. tion, this week urged North .Van- couver City Council to take act- ion for the building of cargo ships at Burrard Dry Dock as part of the building of a Canadian mer- chant marine. In a leaflet being widely distri- buted to North Vancouver homes, Caron says there is an alterna- tive to the proposed cancellation of the $374 million naval frigate program. He urges the building of cargo ships ‘for peaceful trade not useless frigates’’. Pointing to the recently signed nuclear test ban agreement, Car- “this decision can -peace . . on merchant marine be the first step on the road to ’. Here in Canada it is time that we began to lay. plans for a world without war.” Urging that Canada abandon plans to accept N.S. nuclear wea- pons, and pointing out that, ‘‘the old idea that war preparations were good for the economy is false,’ Caron states: “Peace would mean trade with all countries. Here in Vancouver we have had some idea of what this means. The recent announce- ment of another $200 million wheat sale to China is just one example of the kind of prosper- ity that unrestricted trade brings.” Plan display for A feature attraction at the Labor Picnic last August was the display of children’s paintings, rock collections, art, and ceramics and crafts from many places were also exhibited.
