France on Freedoms Side

President Vincent Auriors eloquent address
10 the joint session of Congress should be read
and pondered by anybody who has doubts about
where France stands today in the struggle be-
tween freedom and tyranny. It stands against
the Soviet Union. 1t stands against the forces
of aggression 1t stands firmly, resolutely, un-
equivocaly on the side of decent world, and it
is determined to fight shoulder to shoulder with
the United States and all like-minded nations to
preserve what is left of that world and Of "peace
with liberty, the only peace worth living for
All this is in keeping with the very nature
of France. In Mr.. Auriors words, ".rleutralism'
has always been foreign to the French soul, not
only because it is moral abSurdity-can anyone
be neutral between servitude and liberty, be-
tween good and evil?-but because it is geo.
graphical and historical nonsense, Our people
have experienced the frailty of their exposed
land and sea frontiers. Almost alone in 1914
and again in 1899 they have met the first shock
of armies so powerful that each time it has
taken four years of ceaseless effort and coali-
ton of the worlds forces to defeat them"
Frenchmen therefore know that right without
might is powerless. They know that isolation is
death. They know that neutrality, whether de-
clared, armed or disarmed has protected neither
Belgium, The Netherlands, Norway nor Denmark
and that an aggressor would never stop at q
frontier post, even should it be surmounted with
q dove holding the branch of an olive tree!"
So France, as Mr. Auriol has told Congress,
is irrevocably committeeman merely because of
the Atlantic Pact but also because of instinct,
tradition, history, self-interest and deep-rooted
attachment to liberty-to hold fast with us and
the other free allies against any and every
threat to the civilization of light and reason
and decency that we all share in common. To
that end, despite the terrible ravages of two
wars since 1914, the French today-having staged
a remarkable economic recovery with American
aid-are undertaking great rearmament pro-
gram, are seeking to strengthen and unity

ures as the unprecedented Schuman Plan, and
are continuing to pour out blood and treasure in

It is in your hands to provide
Christmas happiness to a child
in need. Open you home and
your heart to a child who has
lost his own family. Remem-
Der each child is the concern

days children are Tomorrow's

what Foster Home Care is.
Today we will tell you the
story of one of our girls who
needs a home very badly.
This is the story that Penny,

Worker; II know very little
about myself. l was told that
my mother was only 16 years
old when l was born. She left
me with anyone she could
find who would take me in, so

very old and has been sick for
several years. When l was Is
years old | quit school and got
a job to support my God
mother and myself. l have not
been able to keep a steady
job. My Godmother fused at
me so much and accused me
OF a lot of things l didn't do,
until l couldn't take any more
and left her house."
Penny is living with a 81
year old girl now who is work
ing and trying to help Penny
until she can find a job. A fos-
ter home will help Penny very
much. She needs kindness and
understanding, guidance and
good supervision during these
next few ye"rs while she is
growing up. She needs a
chance.

RELEASE OF UNION PROPERTY

RELEASE OF UNION PROPERTY
THE MUNICIPAL COUNCIL mite recently nassad )
number Of bills which indicate that that body is taking into
consideration the matters which need attention, and the order
in which that attention should be given. Not every bill that
passes the Council receives public attention. And this is what
happens with practically all legislative bodies. The public as
a whole is interested only in the spectacular and unusual, and
that which touches the four corners of public life. The routine,
though very vital matters without which the normal fmc-
tioning Of government would stop 60 by unnoticed.
AMONG THE BILLS which the Council passed was bill
No. 67-to provide the release of Estate Grove Place, and other
Labor Union lands from mortgage. The Union has every
reason to feel the deepest sense of iustifable pride in the re-
lease of these estates from the mortgage which has tied them
up for many, many years. Problems of management, labor.
and other economic conditions have plagued the Union, SO
that the amount Of payment has not reached the point plan
ned for at the beginning of the loans. But that is now passed,
and the Union looks to a new era of activity-one a little freer
from the problems which always face an enterprise beset with
heavy debts.
NO MENTION of the Labor Union and its efforts to
secure land for the security and stability of its members could
be complete without a reminder of such names as D. Hamil-
ton Jackson, who with faith set out to accomplish a dream,
and L. E. Harrigan, who much later took up the task, and
fought bravely to put the house in order and bring again some
~sembance Of respect and dignity to the enterprise.
WHEN H TIME comes for the release, the Union
should set aside a day and invite its many friends throughout
the Island and elsewhere to a daylong celebration. The efforts
would be fully justified, for there are those who want to see
the Union free itself from such heavy debts, and move in
other directions, undertaking new and larger projects.
