AARON ISLAND LISTED
AS FISHING HOT SPOT
Aaron Island, off Tee Harbor,
comes in for a share of glory in
the current issue of Field and
Stream as a location "where to
catch the big ones.” It is ranked
with Campbell River, B. C. as tops
for sportsman caught Chinook Sal
mon.
Says A1 McClane, author of "Big
fish Hot Spots," “Although Camp
bell River was dethroned in the
1950 Contest, this Chinook paradise
has held a monopoly on salmon of
over 50 pounds for a long time.
The mighty Campbell roped eight
out of ten awards on several oc
casions in the past decade, where
as Aaron Island in Alaska— the
! present champion—was simply an
; also ran’.”

"ALL ABOUT EVE"
FEATURE TONIGHT
AT 20TH CENTURY
_
The widely publicized feature
"All About Eve” is opening tonight
at the 20th Century Theatre. There
is a big cast headed by Bette Da
vis, Anne Baxter, George Sanders
and Celesta Holm, besides others.
"All About Eve” is ail about
women and their men. Its pene
trating story is brilliantly told; the
dialogue is scintillating.
The central role of aspirant Eve
goes to Anne Baxter, who has won
full recognition as an actress in her
own right; the key part of the
reigning star Eve uses to gain her
ends is played by Bette Davis, her
seli the reigning Hollywood star
of her time, the most honored and
the most vital woman on the screen
here rewarded with what is re
portedly her choicest role in years.
In the other top assignment
George Sanders plays a suave, cold
and sardonic Broadway columnist
who rules more than one destiny;
with a pen, and Celeste Holm.
brings her rare charms to bear on'
the part of a woman who is in
the theatre by virtue of marriage
to a noted playwright, but feels
the distinction of not being of the
theatre in her own right.
THESE DAYS
By GEORGE E. SOKOLSKY
JINGOISM IN CANADA
Lester B. Pearson, Canadian
Secretary for External Affairs, has
anounced a new foreign policy for
Canada. The history of the relations
between Canada and the United
States has been close, co-operative
and automatic. Mr. Pearson now
announces that “Days of relative
ly easy and automatic political re
lations with our neighbor are, I
think, over.”
This news should have been as
startling as our defeat in Korea,
but it disappeared in the announ
cement of General Douglas Mac
Arthur’s dismissal. Yet, we have
to get back to it because this coun
try cannot afford to lose the
friendship of Canada, our most im
portant neighbor. Canada should
mean more to the United States
than any other country, as the
two peoples are economically, po
litically and defensively dependent
upon each other.
This is what Pearson said:
“The leadership then (after the
war) given by the United States
rightly won our admiration, and,
the steps that she has taken to
implement them since, deserve our
deep gratitude. The rest of the
world naturally, however, took some
time to adjust itself to a some
what unexpected state of affairs.
Canada, in my view at least, in not
making the adjustment more
quickly should surely not be crit
icized more than, say, Argentina
or Egypt, or Sweden.
“You may recall that it was not
many years ago that Colonel Lind
berg suggested that Canada should
be detached from membership in
the British Commonwealth of Na
tions because that International
Affiliation of ours might' get the
United States into trouble by in
volving the larger half of North
America in European wars. That
seems a long time ago. There are
certain people in Canada (I am
not one of them), who think that
the shoe, if not already on the
other foot, is now being transfer
red to the other foot.”
This may sound ambiguous and
surprising to Americans. What it
means 1s that Canada does not
think so much of us.
On April 20, 1941, President
Franklin D. Roosevelt and the
Prime Minister of Canada, Mac
Kenzie King, met at Hyde Park to
form what was obviously an offen
sive and defensive alliance. The
basic paragraph of this agreement
is:
“It was agreed as a general
principle that in mobilizing the re
sources of this continent each
country should provide the other
with the defense articles which it
is best able to produce, and, above
all, produce quickly, and that pro
duction programs should be coor
dinated to this end.”
A joint board of defense had been
established in 1940, of which, it
may be recalled, Fiorello LaGuardia
was a member. On February 12,
1947, the United States and Can
ada agreed that the Joint board of
defense should be continued in the
post-war period. The official state
ment said:
. . In the interest of efficiency
and economy, each government has
decided that its national defense
establishment shall, to the extent
authorized by law, continue to col

On June 11, 1947, President Tru
man, speaking at Ottawa, said: 1
“The permanent joint board on
defense will continue to function.
1 wish to emphasize, in addition to
the word permanent, the other two
parts of the title. The board is
joint, being composed of represent
atives of each country. Canada
and the United States participate
on the basis of equality, and the
sovereignty of each is carefully re
spected. This was true during the
gravest days of the war and It will
continue to be true, in keeping
with the nature of all' our joint
undertakings.”
What Lester Fearson’f statement
amounts to is tnat the United
States is further isolated. Who are
our allies, our friends? Since 1938,
patriotic American citizens have
been attacked and smeared and
abused and* called “isolationists,”
for political advantage. These men
never sought isolation for the Uni
ted States. What they sought was
a strong, prepared, independent
country that never compromised on
its right of choice—choice as to
allies, choice as to time and place
of defense and attack, choice to
make its own decisions.
Under the management of Dean
Acheson, we have lost all that. We
are becoming bogged down with
United Nations compromises. Even
Canada goes back on us. Even
Canada announces, through its
foreign minister, that it joins with
the countries that, having accepted
America’s friendship and bounty,
turn on us in the moment of our
danger.
We have indeed become isola
tionist by the Acheson-Truman
diplomacy.
