tel. >"
During the past 81 years the Cana
dian-United States-Mexican Highway
association has grown into a powerful
organization in highway planning. It's
prime objective is to complete two
links of highway which will give
US q good black topped highway thru
n United States to FL Paso or Laredo.

black topped highway thru Mexico
City to Guatemala. This is the straigbt-
est Interstate Highway, north and

When Vice President Richard Nixon
recently returned from the Latin
American states he was full of n
thuslaSm for the completion of the
long projected Pln-American Hiwav.
This highway passes thru the courl-
tries south of Mexico and they plan
a connection with the highway thru
South America to its f~urtherest point
south. 1t is believed Mr.. Nixon's report
to the president resulted in the presi-
dent asking Congress for SIS, DOC. 900
fund which would be matched by the
people of Guatemala, Nicaragua, Sal
vador and Costa Rico to Panama
Canal. Now there are all sorts of
arguments for the construction of
and strategic. This completed highway
will carry bus lines, tourist travel
and truck transportation. This high
way completed so these Latin and
South American people can travel in
and out of the United States will go
far in building international goodwill
and friendships. 1t is cheaper to build
goodwill and confidence in these
countries than it is to increase the
size of the army. navy or air force.
They should all be our friends like
the people of Canada in their great
land to the north.
We extend our sympathy to the
thousands of farmers whose lands are
under water. 1 was amazed when the
Minister of Highways the Hon. J. T.
Douglas, stated there were over $780,
600 acres of farm lands in eastern
Saskatchewan which would not be
planted to crops this year. Very good
crops seem to cover western Saskat-
chewan.

The Protestant Reforma-
ton was one of the worlds
greatest steps in the direction
of democracy.
The Protestant Reformers
chose to express themselves,
rather than to be subdued by
the error which had crept into
the church organization of
their day. In so doing they
brought about a break with
the totalitarian practices of
church government which had
gained control in the af-
fairs of the state. The Bible
teaching that "the just shall
live by faith" was rediscov-
cred. (Romans 1H7)
Ever since the days of the
Reformation, Professionalism
has been the cornerstone of
democracy. Protestants rec
ognize differences of opinion.
Yet Bible-believing Protes-
tants are united in their rec
ognition of the Bible as the
supreme authority in spirit
ual matters.
American history has de-
veloped side by side with
Protestant ideals of democ-
racy. A look at world geog-
raphy today reveals that it is
Protestant countries which
are not plagued with dicta-
torships.
The freedom which is
known in democracy can be
traced directly to the life of

Jesus Christ. Jesus stressed
the value of the individual
soul and its responsibility di-
rectly to God. To carry out
that responsibility the indi-
vidual must be free. Jesus
emphasized the equality of
men in the sight of God. Also.
it was through the death of
Jesus that freedom from the
tyranny of sin was purchased.
The Bible, speaking of Jesus,
says, eff the Son therefore
shall make you free, We shall
be free indeed" John 8: 36)

Protestants are united in
their recognition of this fact.
They are also united in their
belief that the functions of
the Church and the functions
of the State were meant to

things which be Caesars, and
unto God the things which be
Gods" duke 20: 25)

Meanwhile, the Ministry is exam
lining the feasibility of prohibiting

men.
During the recent Parliament
debate, fisheries minister Peder
Holt emphatically declared that
purse-seining does not disturb the
spawning activities of the cod fish
on the Lofoten banks, nor does it
harm the stock. Although fish
schools may occasionally be split
by purse-seining, Mr.. Holt stressed
that it does not drive the fish out
of the Vestfjord. He said the poor
catches made in Lofoten these past
several seasons were entirely due
to the smaller influx Of mature cod
from the Barents Sea, coupled
with bad weather.
