The Late llr. cox

There will be widespread regret at the 'passing yesterday of the Hon. H. H. Cox, following his unexpected heart attack a few days ago. Highly successful as a busi- ness man, he was outstanding also for his popularity and for his long record of con- tinuous representation of the Second Dis- trict of King's in the Legislature since 1927.

At the last session, in his new position of Minister of Public Works and Highways. Mr. Cox made a very favorable impression .by his forthright undertaking to give every district equal treatment, regardless of poli- tics. He carried this promise out to the best of his ability, as all who have had contact with him in his ministerial capacity are aware. ,

Mr. Cox retained his youthful spirit and physical stamina so well that he easily pass- ed for a man in his middle prime. l-ie radiat- ed geniality and good nature. Many a dull session of the House was enlivened by his ever ready humor, and he was valued also for his sound common sense and practical

come-back. The many exchanges he had with the former Opposition leader, Hon. Dr. MacMillan-a personal friend of many years' standing--have passed into legisla- 'tive history.

In the chamber in which he was such a familiar figure for nearly quarter of a cen- tury, Mr. Cox will be missed perhaps more than any other individual who has sat there in recent years. Every one of his col- leagues, on both sides of the House, and 'every official from the clerk and sergeant- at-arms to the youngest doorker.-per and messenger, felt the warmth of his personal- ity, and will treasure some happy remin- iscence of him in the years to come. This business assoc- iates and indeed to all with whom he came in contact. '

Sympathy is extended to the widow and family in their bereavement, in which the community shares very deeply and sin- cerely. .

They Fought For Peace

Man has fought for many things. He has fought for food, for land, for honour and for life but the U. N. forces In KOPCB fought for peace.

We once talked glibly of a war to end war, only to be disillusioned by yet another conflict. The phrase, however, could with complete accuracy be applied t0 '3D9T3t10n5 in Korea. It was a campaign f0UEht with no hope of territorial gains, not as a des- perate defence, but for peace. .

It was largely a tacit understanding that the objective was universal peace. No one came out with high-sounding Slogan?- The soldier, the American soldier with his ouddies, said little about ultimate ObJeCtiVES. Yet deep in the heart of all was the feel- ing that war itself was the enemY- The victory is not a victory over North Koreans, but over war. If it is not now clear to the world that aggression is unprofitable, that war is an unforgivable error, than many brave lives have been lost in vain. Unless peace is triumphant, the victory is

vain.

The Lucknow conference

At the recent conference of the Insti- tute of Pacific Relations at Lucknow. India. Canada was represented by I number of private citizens, mostly teachers and jour- nalists, headed by Prof. Edgar Muclnnis of Toronto University and formerly Of Chill?" lottetown. The conference brought to light a series of differences that will have to be bridged by understanding and co-opera- uon if working arrangements between the Aston countries and the Western nations are to be established.

' On the one side, the peoples of Asia are lconfronted with economic problems of an gxtremely acute nature. They are in the grip of new natlonalist aspirations which m',d.to, be, understood and directed. It will not be enough merely to oppose such ammuongpnm to regard them solely as a manifestation of Communism. At the same time, it is clear that revolutionary Com- munlnn will now forces of na- tbmmm' , exploit them for the

Two new items rcccnldy iuucd by the Dominion Bureau of statistic: In the cub- ject of comment in the Ottawa Journal. One Ifotcd that the official index of farm prices, what the former received for his produce, has dropped overp10 points during August: the Iecond that the index of farm costs, what the former has to pay for his purchases and wages, had increased by five points in the four months up to August. A more recent downward trend in meat prices, coupled with the general upward spiral of almost all non-farm prices, might well make a later index show even greater disparity between the two trends.

It is apparent, says the Journal, that despite high food costs today. the farmer is being caught in an unenviable position. Bountiful harvests, and some uncertainty as regards exports, have caused prices of much that he has to sell to dip, much to the delight of the average consumer. On the other hand as a substantial "buyer of capital as well as all consumer goods he faces the same price and wage increases as all others. The prospect does not make him very happy.

"On Sunday, the 14th instant, the Rev. Thomas Phelan. P. P., appealed to his parishioners of St. Malachils church to make 3 sub- scription to be applied towards finishing the interior of that church. The appeal was promptly responded to - the sum of 2480 being subscribed in a few moments. Further subscriptions had been given during the past. week, and we learn from a statement made yesterday by the reverend gentle- man to his congregation, that the whole amount subscribed in Char- tottetown is 5668, to which he ex- pects to be able to Idd half Is much more.

Setback: For Communists

The Swedish municipal elections which are also. indirectly. elec- tions for the Upper House of Par- liament - have brought a heavy setback for the Communists. They have polled only five per cent of the votes - I third of their strength two years Igo.

This ebb of the Communist pIr- ties. their decline to the status of an insignificant if troublesome minority, is general throughout Western Europe. Only in FrInce Ind liIly are they I serious poli- ticnl force. And signs of I com- ing declinc Ire visible there In well.

About Meeting Criticism

(Royal Bank Monthly Letter)

If we are on the receiving end of criticism, we must school our- selves io rise above all that is petty and to accept and use what is worth while. There are times to fight back, ,but these must not be decided by inclination but by answering the question. after searching consideration of the cri- ficism: Is it right?

The fatal blight that strikes some persons under criticism is to de- velop a feeling of persecution. Cri- ticisms are not to be measured by the degre in which they hurt. nor by the motives of the critics. but by their rightness.

,We have our individual "tender spots”. We will take all manner of abuse in many sectors of our lives, but usually there is one where the least breath of criticism hurls. It was revealed at the Nur- emberg trial of war criminals that Goeririg. number two Nazi. could accept calmly criticism of the murder of millions as a military or political expedient, but broke into. anger when accused of lying. One calming thought for most of us when subjected to criticism might be: he little knew my other vices. or he would not. have men- tioned only these. . ,

0

It is likely correct to say that we resent criticism because it might be true. or because it low- er: our dignity. Yet it is because a criticism usually contains at least a grain of truth that it is valuable.

None of us is I small splinter of perfection in I forest of uncouth trees. Every sensible man knows that he is not perfect. The world is no place for models of perfec- tion. Criticism is I good way to discover defective spots.

It is foolish to be so sensitive to unpleasant comment that we allow it to crush us, but at the same time we must not become so thick- skinned to any criticism that we do not even learn that other: dis- like the things we do or say or write.

The man who uses criticism to get I clearer view of his conduct is the opposite of the man who goes around suspecting the mo- lives of everybody. The second man wants to pick up the stones of criticism Ind throw them back; the'flrst man known that the stones that critics hurl may be used by him to build his monument.

Not often thought of. but nev- ertheless true, is the idea that the criticism of In enemy or 3 com- petitor may be more valuable than that of I friend and colleague. It doesn't matter if the critic is try-

ing to compensate for his own in- fei-lority by humiliating us. He may be trying to harm u. but he is really doing us I favor if we step up from criticism and not down. Even a crude blow may be effective if it gets us over In unwarranted self.-sa.tisfactlor-.

It is a dividend-returning attri- bute in an executive when he pre- fers censure. which is useful to him, to praise which deceives him. As the clown says in Shake- speare's Twelfth Night: "Marry. sir. they praise me and make an ass of me: now my foes tell me plainly I am an as: so that by my foes, sir. I profit in the knowledge of myself."

There is. too. self-crit.iciIm. Like charity. criticism can sometimes make its best beginning at home. But it must not go too far. Intra- spcciion, the psychologists tell us. is good in moderation.

The man who makes in habit of selling himself short, of talking people out of paying him a com- pliment, is giving the world I false picture of himself. Friends may argue a little with.him when he makes a disparaging remark about himself or his business. but the remark will. stick. By and by even his best friends will gather the idea from his own attitude that he is pretty much of I second rater.

It's all very well to beware when all men speak well of you: it's I very good idea to welcome cri- ticism: but don't go too in in writing yourself down. .
