WAR & AFTERWARDS
IMPRESSIONS OF RECENT CANADIAN VISITOR. NEW ZEALAND POLITICAL TRENDS. (By Telegraph—Pres:; Association—Copyright) (Received This Day, 11.40 a.m.) OTTAWA, January 13. 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 Association, Mr Arthur Ford, in a speech. Canada, he said, cannot avoid her 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 to be the socialisation of industry, New Zealand is not. Business men there are not worried, and Government advocates saj r socialisation may not come for 50 to 75 years.
