elopment Threatened â€" The big oil companies have the jitters. The Is are beneath the sands of the Middle East (above), where Arab coun- mericati support of the Jewish state in Palestine. Arab retaliation could of oil to the tanker loading pipelines on the Persian Gulf, and force the J.S. to share its own too-small domestic supplies. rCOESON IN THE VOfiLD ^^NormauBlalr is obscured. During the summer temperatures running as high as 105 degrees are common. Back in 1926 the first of some 2000 Mennonites arrived in this savage country. Searching for a land where they could live accord- ing to their peculiar religious ten- ets many of them had moved from Germany to Russia, then to Canada and the United States. Paraguay seems to be their last frontier. The life of the Mennonites in the Chaco' has been an unending struggle against nature- In order to reach their markets, products have to be carried first in carts drawn by oxen or horses, then transferred to a tiny railroad, then floated down the Paraguay River. But the Mennonites chief crop â€" long fibred cotton â€" has made them, if not wealthy, at least self suffici- ent. Before many weeks have pas- sed their ranks will be swelled by a notable addition. Toward the end of Juii« 1500 Mennonites left the Red River Valley in Southern Man- itoba and sailed from Quebec on the Dutch ship \oleiidam. Their dest- ination was the Paraguayan Chaco where the life may be hard, but where they hope to find the freedom from "worldly influences" that has been the goal of stricter members of the sect ever since it originated in Europe in the IGtli century. Russia During the past few weeks Rus- sian progress in Europe appears to have slowed dovvr considerably, and it now seems as if the policy- makers in the Kreniliir» had decided to turn attention toward Asia, at least for the time being. Reports from Burma sound as though the Communists had been getting in some of their best prop aganda work there, and there are many indications that this former British colony is definitely moving toward the Soviet orbit. Dispatches from China give in creasing evidence of real deteriora tioii in Nationalist circles- It is now a secious possibility that before many weeks have passed all of China down to the Yellow River will be in Communist hands. France is making no real head- way in its long effort to reclaim In do China. There is trouble in Mal- aya; and the Dutch have yet to establish anything hke a satisfactory relationship with the Indonesians. Just how much Russia is directly responsible for all this trouble and unrest cannot be determined with any certainty. But there is little doubt that chaotic conditions are increasing throughout Asia, and that such conditions are ideal for Russian exploitation. So it seems only reasonable to assume that Mos- cow is definitely interested in the possibilities that exist in that area of the world, and is not just sitting idly by letting i vents shape them- selves. So You Can't Sleep If you're troubled with insomnia, you're probably brainier than the average person â€" at least that's the opinion of a noted neuropsychiatrist, and any men who can tote a title like that around without getting a backache should know what he's talking about. This neuro â€" etc- etc-, maintains that an active mind requires far less sleep than a mind preoccupied with dull or unimportant matters. Auth- orities have never been able to agree on the exact number of houri of sleep required by the average per son. But lying awake at night !a â-  comfortable bed is rareljr danger- oui to ene'a hc«ltk. Greatest Known Oil Reserve On Earth Canada suffers from oil anaemia, producing only about a seventh of her needs from her own wellsâ€" says the Monthly Letter of The Royal Bank of Canada. Yet widespread seepages in favorable structures in the Mackenzie River Basin indicate the possibility of opening up new fields to supplement those at Fort Norman and in the Turner Valley. We also have enormous oil deposits in the tar sands of Albertaâ€" according to the Canada Year Book "the greatest known oil reserve on the face 'of the earth." Up to now the difficulty has been to find an economic method of reclaiming this oil. But it will be well worth- while to seek for such a method, as the estimates of the amount of oil varies from that of Canadian geologists of 100- billion tons to that of the United States Bureau of Mines, 250 billion tons. R«d Threat Is Ever Present There should be no complacency â- â- ^ver the fact that in the Ontario elections and the three recent Fed- eral by-elections, the Socialists mus- tered less than a third of the popu- lar vote, say* The Financial Post in a recent editorial. With far less support thaw'tfiat there have been plenty of woHd examples where totalitarian parties have been able to smother all resistance. In Russia and in pre-war Ger- many and Italy, the Communists, Nazis and Fascists never were in the majority, but they acquired complete control. Since the war we have seen the same thing happen in Czechoslovakia, .Bulgaria, Hun- gary and Romania. » * * It is all very well to argue that in the recent wins, the Socialists' gains have all been in urban areas or in urban-dominated areas; that farmers and other classes outside these areas will not be tempted by the C.C.F. bait. The Saskatchewan election of 104-4 knocks the props out from under that argument just as the subjugation of the kulaks in Russia by the city-trained Com- munists proves that wide-scale but unorganized opposition is no match against a ruthless and powerfully regimented minority. There is only one way to meet this divide-and-rule threat by the Socialists. It will not be met by outpromising them. For the man who wants complete state domina- tion of every minute of his life from the time he comes into the world until he departs, then Socialists arc best able to give it to him. ♦ * * The average Canadian does not expect or want Socialism from the non-C.C.F. parties of Canada, but he does expect something that the C.C.F. cannot possibly offer. That is freedom to develop his own individual initia- tive, to live his own life, to make his own future. Give him that in- stead of regimentation with its crushing taxation, and he will scorn Socialism. Man Saves Children In Path Of Fast Express WINS DOWAWAHD CHARLES AUGUSTE LEMAY OF LOUISEYILLE, QUE., restues boy and girl from railway bridge in aidt of time \Ja their way home from ao afternoon sports meet, the two Saucier children â€" Helene, 8 and Roger, 4 â€" decided to take a short-cut by crossing a 2S0-foot railway bridge. Chattering gaily about the day's events, and not thinking to look behind, they didn't hear the Montreal-Quebec express approaching in the dis- tance. lEMAY SEES DANGER Charles Lemay, walking along the track with a friend, saw the train and the children at the same time. Realizing that the youngsters would not have time to get across, he made a dash for the young pair. He had been about 500 feet from the bridge when he started and by the time he caught up with them they were about half way across. Without saying a word and barely stopping, he swept 4->-ear- old Roger into his arms and ran with him to the other end of the bridge. Then, speeding back, he grabbed the girl and repeated the wild dash . . . leaving the bridge just in time. In a matter of seconds the express roared by. Courage, presence of mind and quick thinking on the part of this young Canadian saved the lives of two children that Sunday afeernooo. We are proud to pay tribute to Charles Lemay of LoaisCTillc, Que., through the pMseotation of The Dow Award. THE DOW AWARD it a citation for outstandinf hero. iim dnd includes, as a tungible txpnstion of apprtciatioH, a Jioo Canada Savings Bond. WimMrt are seitcted by At Dow Award Committw, a mwp of editors of ladding Ba i wK ta n rteuitpaptn. Lemay knew that the chiMren would never reach the other end of the bridge on time. Quickly he sprinted the SOO feet to the bridge . . . deter- mined to save them at any cost. Slowing down just long enough to scoop young Roger into his arms, Lemay carried him to safety and then tetutped at full speed for the girl.

Car owners who like to take care of their own autos and tinker with them in spare minutes, are enthusi- astic about a new Httle business that has started in a suburb of Akron. The business now enables them to rent garage space and tools at a cent a minute on an hourly basis. Its proprietor knew how scarce tools were during and just after the war. He also knew that because of the housing shortase many persons do not have garages of their own tti work in. Being a "tinkerer" himself he decided to help his fellow tink- erers. He rented a garage and bun'? out a shingle, "garage space for work- ing and tools for rent." His enterprise is now open 13 hours a day, including Sundays. For 60 cents an hour, a home- made mechanic can replace piston rings and bearings, or wash his car. A hoist is available for lift work. Two high-school boys are tearing down a 1941 Packard there and in- stalling new rings. One customer recently put in new springs in 2% hours. Week-end business is usually made up of husband-and-wife team* who come tliere to wash the family car. "Somehow the women seem la think the men won't get the.insida clean enough, so they come along," he explains. SELL BY MAIL W.OOO-WORD BOOK SHOWS WH.-iT. WHKRK. WHEN .VNO HOW OF MAII, OKOEK Bl'81NBS8.
