DUTY OF CANADIANS
PACIFIC WAR SPHERE
PRESS LEADER’S VIEW
(9 a.m.) OTTAWA, Jan. 14. New Zealanders and Australians are hoping that before the war ends Canadians will be fighting alongside them in the Pacific, said the president of the Canadian Press, Mr. Arthur Ford, in a speech. “Canada cannot avoid responsibilities in the Pacific, now or after the war, if she is to enjoy the goodwill of America, Australia and New Zealand and if she is to share in the future industrial and economic development,” he said.
"Some Canadians hold up New Zealand as an example of socialism arid others criticise it,” said Mr. Ford. “It all depends on the definition of socialism. If it is an advanced social security programme, then I suppose New Zealand is socialistic, but if it considered socialisation of industry, New Zealand is not. Businessmen there are not worried and Government advocates say that socialisation may not come for 'SO to 75 years.
