WITH 3-D COLOR T.V.

A well-defined three-dimen- :
Sional color image is being ob-
tained with an experimental
TV System, developed by Sov-
‘iet electronic engineers in
Leningrad,

To produce the steroscopic

effect, the subject is televised
by two cameras, corresponding

to the right and left eyes. A

a

semi-translucent inclined mir-
ror then merges. the two
images into one. The system
can be used for TV broadcasts
as soon as simple components
are developed.

Meanwhile color TV is be-
ing put out regularly once a
week in Moscow. Color TV
sets are soon expected to be
on the market in quantity.

WHAT DISARMAMENT MEANS

In the Powell River area we
ave two main industries, pulp
. 8Md paper and logging. The
Pulp mill and the largest per-
Cent of the logging is done by
one large company. This leaves
he greatest number of the
Workers and small businesses
dependent on the ability of
. 1S company to find sufficient
reign markets to operate at
€ir usual profit. In the event
Cf the loss of their present
erkets and the closure of this

» 4nd would make Powell

River an important member in
one of the most attractive tour-
ist circuits anywhere in the
world rather than the end of
the road that we now are.

A modern airfield is much
in need in our community.
The weather conditions are ex-
cellent most of the time. A
weekly service to Victoria,
Nanaimo, Comox and a daily
service to Vancouver would
give us closer contact both for
business and pleasure.

Not far from our community
we have the Texada Iron
Mines which are one of the
largest shippers of low grade
iron ore to Japan for process-
ing. A processing plant in
Powell River area would give
jobs to the men who were for-
merly employed by the small
logging operators. As the small
patches of timber have been
used up these men have been
forced to seek employment. in
a district dependent on world
trade and in a time of a sink-
ing economy.

A youth centre with a win-
ter pool and _ instruction in
sports and crafts and life sav-
ing would give our young peo-
ple the chance to enjoy each
other’s company in a healthy
atmosphere while developing
the kind of characters desire-
able in our citizens.

These are the things disarm-
ament could mean to us, but
most important, disarmament
would mean peace and the
preservation of life, the chance
to plan for the future, know-
ing that the future is ours to
shape.

Marcel Marceau
on TV June 19

TV viewers will be able to
see two half-hour films of Mar-
cel Marceau Sunday June 19 on
CBC Sunday Playhouse at 4
p.m. The films are Bip. the
Character and The Dinner
Party. These programs. will
replace 20th Century.

Hailed as one of the world’s
greatest pantomimist, Marceau
started’ practising his art when
very young. He was much in-
fluenced by, Charlie Chaplin,
Buster Keaton and Harry
Langdon.

During. World War 2 his
father was shot as a hostage
by the Germans, while he him-
self worked with the French
underground,

Reader writes: ‘Let Cana-
dians become neutral. To con-
tinue otherwise means death.
It is not as though we would
be dying for God or country,
since neither of them would
benefit by our death. We
would be dying to pay hom-
age to a system that the minds
and hearts of mankind are fast
rejecting because -it causes
people to live in fear and in-
security.”

R. Hamilton, Vancouver,
writes to congratulate the
Pacific Tribune for bringing
the truth to Canadian labor
about the “brutal British op-
pression of the citizens of
North Ireland.” He . urges
people to protest to R. A. Bui-
ler; Home Secretary,  West-
minister, and) Prime Minister
Macmillan, demanding repeal
of the Special Powers Act.

He also urges demand for
immediate release of 134 trade
unionists held in Belfast jails.
Correspondent Hamilton also
urges readers of the PT to de-
mand an independent imparti-
cal. enquiry into the actions
and methods used by the
R.U.C. (police) in North Ire-
land.

Emil Gartner dies
in road accident

Emil Gartner, well-known
Toronto musician, was killed
just over a week ago in an au-
to accident, when his car
struck a parked road grader
on a highway.

His untimely death is being

mourned both in music cir- |

cles and in the Canadian Jew-
ish community, to whose cult-
ural life he had made an im-
portant contribution.

He was for many years con-
ductor of the Toronto Jewish

British pamphlets
help explain world

SOCIALISM TODAY SERIES
(Lawrence & Wishart, 50 cents
each),

Three titles have now ap- |

peared in this new series of
popular pamphlets on social-
ism being published in Eng-
land. They have some import-
ant common characteristics.
They are simply and well writ-

ten. They deal with fundamen-

tals of Marxist théory with
many examples from the pres-
ent world along with the ex-
planation of the theory itself
With a number of other titles
in preparation, this is certainly
a group of pamphlets that. is
well worth having and passing
on to workers in the labor

; Movement interested in an in-
| terpretation of the world from

the Marxist point of view.

These three are already av-
ailable:

Capitalism, Yesterday and
Today by Maurice Dobb, first
in the series, deals very con-
cretely with such questions as
what is capitalism, how it

sends a copy of a letter he sent
to the Victoria Colonist pro-
testing that “not a single
word” was given to the peace
action of Victoria citizens re-
cently. In his letter he states
“the only defence against
atomic war is peace and total
disarmament.”

TiN as

“Canada should become a neu-
tral country and bring all
Canadian soldiers home.” Hit-
ting out at the revival of
Nazism in West Germany he
recalls “the bloody atrocities
done by them which is still in
the memory of the Canadian
people.” In his second letter
he condemns profiteers who
“make the people live in mis-
ery, unemployment, inflation
and handouts.”

Kelowna, sent two |
letters in which he urges that |

came into being, economic cri-
|sis and capitalism since the
|Second World War. Dobb,
starting with classical definit-
‘ions of capitalism and_ its
| workings, clearly refutes in his
| final chapter the claims that
| Capitalism has changed funda-
|mentally in this period of his-
| tory.
| Some Economic IHusions in
| the Labor Movement by.J.
| Campbell, second of the series,
| follows very logically. What
|} are some of these illusions?
| Whether it is that of full em-
| ployment, or large-firm benev-
| Olence, of people’s capitalism.
|or managed capitalism, or of
| wage restraint. Campbell does
|an excellent piece of work in
defining and refuting them.
| While the examples are Brit-
|ish it should be quite possible
| for the reader to see the pat-
|tern as applied to our own
;cOuntry and the parallel
| Spreading of illusions by our
| own apologists for the capital-
| ist system,
| Philosophy for Socialists by
| Maurice Cornforth, the third
| pamphlet, is an excellent pop-
| ular exposition of dialectical
;materialism. Cornforth says
|in- the introduction, “It is
sometimes asked why a social-
ist party should trouble itself
about philosophy. Have any
philosophy or no philosophy,
but just get on with the job!
Yet because it must under-
stand the job, and all that that
involves, a_ socialist party
needs a philosophy — its own
Scientific philosophy, opposed
to.the philosophies of capital-
ism.” It is a real treat to read
how Cornforth explains dialec-
tical materialism — the phil-
osophy of socialists — in terms
that are most concrete and un-
derstandable.
