American efforts to accentu
ate the positive at Geneva fall
far short ,of eliminating the
negative. )
Secretary Dulles enumerates i
several points where Easi-West
viewpoints are approaching
each other. The west seems to
'be taking the propaganda line
that, since negotiations can be
continued, the foreign minis
ters conference is a positive
gain. It’s not easy to swallow.
Indeed, while the ministers
have shown no signs of any real
agreement, the Russians have
re-injectel into these discus
sions an element of discord
which has been played down in
formal conferences for some
time.
That is the everlasting Rus
sian effort to advance comraur
1st ideology.
Molotov cooly laid it back on
the conference table with his
insistanee that any solution of
the German problem include
protection for communist insti
tutions in East Germany. He de
nied the right of the German
people as a whole to have any
voice in that.
The Russian “new look’" also
has been badly spattered by her
admission, after hiding for a
time behind the claim that it
was Czech business, that the
communist arms deal with Eg
ypt was really made in retalia
tion against the new north tier
Middle East defense pact.
It is notable, too, that the
recently announced communist
slogans for another year return
ed in many respects to the Stal
in line, even to quoting from
his prescriptions for expansion.
The West needs to be very
sure that in continuing the pre
sent negotiations against all

hope of agreement it is not
playing Russian own tune.
The sense of necessity which
made possible the North Atlan
tic Treaty Organization is be
ing allowed to fall away.
A situation is developing in
which, (by freezing such situa
tions as that of Germany and
the Eastern European satellites
in an edfort to extend the pre
sent period of co-existence, the
certainty of a new war. some
time, could be established.
And the Russians are demon
strafing in the Middle East, and
through their continuing pro
paganda, that a freeze in Eur
; ope, solidifying what they have
there, would only free them
for tactical work in other areas
where bars to expansion and
subversion have not been so
firmly established.

Liquor poses
problem at Kitimat
KITIMAT. B. C. (IP) Reeve
Wilbur Hallman, in a drive on
bootlegging and excessive
drinking in this north coast
aluminum town, today called
on the provincial (government
•to open a liquor store here to
combat a “desperate sit
tion”.
“Liquor is coming in in great
quantities,” he said in an in
terview. “We are in a desper
ate situation and until we get
a store where the individual
may buy his liquor by the bot
tle, we will have excessive
ordering.”
At present, he said, liquor
had to be ordered a week In
advance by sea or air from Van
couver 400 miles 'to the south
! or by rail from Terrace. B. C.
j 40 miles to the north.
“At one time last Christ
mas.” Reeve said, “there was
| 28 tons of liquor on the dock,
i Planes would book passengers
on outward iflights only, re
turning with full loads of li
quor.”
Construction workers in the
past few years, he said, had
been ordering their liquor by
the case, then selling half of
it at $10 a botte to cover *the
shipping cost and pay for their
own habit.
“Our convictions for boot
legging are few.” he said, “but
rumors say a man went out
BISHOP GORDON WILL ;
VISIT THIS WEEKEND
The Rijght Reverend Wil
liam J. Gordon, Jr. will he in
ISiika November 4 'through 7.
He will administer confirma
tion in St. Peter’s by the Sea
Sunday evening, Nov. 6 at 7:30
ip. m.
Following the evening ser
vice, a reception in honor of
Bishop Gordon will be held in
the rectory.
Bishop Gordon had planned
to visit Sitka two weeks ago,
but iwas compelled to postpone
his visit because of unavoid
able delays in plane schedules
here in 1953 with $20,000 in
tax free money made bootlefg
igjing.”
Reeve Hallman said exces
sive drinking was encouraged
because “nobody is going to
send down to Vancouver or uip
to Terrace for one battle. He
usually orders a case or half a
case to have some around the
house in case he wants some
body %in on a (Saturday night.”
Only legal liquor outlet with
in Kitimat is the Kitimat Ho
tel wi.h a beer iparlor seating
600.
'There are usually long line
ups on Friday and Saturday
nights — two come out and
two more go in.”
At Victoria, Col. Donald Me
Gugan, chairman of the liquor
control board, said 'the matter
is “under consideration.”
Kitimat is entitled to a li
quor store,” he said, “and will
have one as soon as suitable
premises are available.”
