CANADA AND PACIFIC
MUST PLAY HER PART
(Rec. 10.50 a.m.) OTTAWA, Jan. 13
"The New Zealanders and Australians are hoping that before the war ends the Canadians will be fighting alongside them in the Pacific," said the president of the Canadian Press (Mr A. 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 future industrial and economic development. Some Canadians hold up New Zealand as an example of Socialism, 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 is considered socialisation of _ industry, New Zealand is not. Business men there are not worried and Government advocates say that socialisation mav not come for from 50 to 75 years.
