s........ .. In Balkans
By J.M. IOBIIII. Jr.
(Associated Prom News Analyst)
Does Cominiorm military activity in the Balkans mean that war is coming to Europe this year?
No categorical answ can be made this side oi the Iron Curtain.
Marshal Tiws charges that Rus- sia and her satellites are making aggressive preparations along Yugo- slavia's borders certainly add a sombre overtone to long-standi tears. '
There are domestic circumstances which could cause the Belgrade dictator to make such charges at this time ior his own purposes.
Tlto's oiiiclal iamily has not been unanimous in approving his recent steps toward Western friendship, his appeal ior outright iood aid and loans and his iinal break with Russia. -
Until last Christmas Tito kept up the myth that his diiierences with Russia were with a regime which was deviating probably only temp- orarily from true Communism. since then Yugoslav propaganda has charged that Russia was out and out Fascist. some oi his lieutenants haven't been too enthusiastic about that.
All this year Tito has been trying to overcome opposition among his own people with seeming steps toward democracy. obviously in the
. hope oi creating greater unity.
Right now he is negotiating ior the purchase of war materials from the U. S. and Britain. and it is to his interest to create an atmosphere oi urgency in this connection. It is to his advantage to intensiiy the attitudes already taken by Britain and America that any Comininrm attack on Yugoslavia would almost certainly set off a third world war.
Regardless oi Tito's motivation, the facts to which he calls atten- tion are incontrovertible and critic- al. Whether they mean that the Cominiorm has decided on war cannot be said. That it is preparing for war, in iear or by design, is sure.

The Canadian Temperance Ped- eration is the co-ordinating body oi most oi the organised teln- perance units in the Dominion. and the purpose oi the Temper- ance Fe.-leration is to teach the youth the eiiects oi alcoholic bev- erages, physically. socially and mentally: to present to the adult the startling figures oi the grav- est menace in Canada today, and endeavour to awaken all Chris- tian bodies oi the necessity oi or- ganizing against evil.
we must salute the organiza- tion, "Alcoholics Anonymous". as they do a marvellous work of re- habilitatlon. but if suiiicient in- terest could be aroused in the clause oi temperance across Can- ada, there would be lower alcoh- olics. The purpose oi The Cana- dian Temperance Federation is to uniiy the methods oi approach to this problem all' amass Canada. for "In Unity There Is Strength."
Is the liquor traiilc a problem? Figures do not lie. and they tell us that this traiiic in Canada costs us millions of dollars every year. The iollowing is a quotation from an article in the United Church Observer - "A Canadian industrialist estimates the cost. oi alcoholism to Canadian industry. through loss oi time. ineiiiciency and production slow-downs. at eighty million dollars annually.
Manitoba ilcods have caused terrible damage. It is estimated that it will cost between eighty and a hundred million dollars to repair the damage. An eighty mil- lion dollar disaster once in a quar- ter century awakens Canadians to an immediate response, but an eighty million dollar industrial loss to Canada, occurring annual- ly. causes little apparent concern.
Perhaps some figures released by the Dominion Bureau of Statis- tics, concerning the hotel business in Canada in 1949 will iurther awaken us. Total business done by hotels in Canada was sa5s.1za,ooo. oi which 939,236,000 or 53 per cent was spent for beer, wine or liquor; 573,373,000, or 23 per cent in-om room rentals; and only 360,435,- 000 or 1'7 per cent ior meals. Three times the value oi the iood was spent for liquor.
in the twenty-ilve year period. was-1910. the increase in liquor traiiic in Canada was alarming.
Spirits - 1923 -1:134,-no Cval.: 1948 - 7,320,338 Gal.; Beer -- 1923 35,435,690 Gal.; 1918 165,742.- 842 Gsl.. Wine -- 1928 - 1.117.350 GEL; 1948 - 5.213.313 Gal.
Figures would speak ior them- selves, but they do not tell oi the murders. the tilled jail-cells, the broken homes, the neglected chil- dren, the deaths by automobile accidents. caused by drinking driv- ers, the ililed mental institutions, in fact, unaccountable misery caused by the "First Drink."
It is the aim oi the Canadian Temperance Federation to pre- sent to all, the eiiects oi the Liq- uor Traiiic: but the task is great and it needs the support or every Christian men and woman in our Dominion. Will you support your local temperance iorces with your time, your talent and your iunds? Only by our united eiiort can we halt this alarming menace.

He was sorry they had decided on a barbecue. He and Anna had made a mistake in considering what Celeste and Walter would enjoy rather than what Mrs. lon- taino and Olivier would enjoy. Marie Celeste and Walter-Ann kept coupling their names and so did everyone else. Anyone would think. to hear Anna talk. that they were engaged already. Brock iiung himself into his clothes. after a hasty shower. Several guests were already clustered around the brick ibarbecue pit when he went out pn the rear lawn. Both the lamb and the pig which had been roasted whole had been taken tom the large iron skewers and laid. al- ready sliced. on a wooden butcher Mock. A big bowl of highly nav- ored celery sauce stood between the platters arrayed on a long plank table.
Mrs. Fontaine appeared to enjoy the evening's entertainment. She said me would never have believ- ed that eating outdoors could have given her so much additional ap- .peti-te.
Marie Celeste threw hes-selt into the spirit of the occasion with" even greater zest. And when the feast iisel! was over and iibe Negroes came from the quarters to sing, her delight in their perionrnance -was exuberant. They began with some spiritual: which she had never heard before.
when the darkies s'wltci'ied irorn sp'irii'ilBIl5 to love songs. she was even more enchanted. Alter the guests had dispersed and the choir had gone back to their quarters. the last cadences dying away 1'3 the distance as the singers strolled along. Celeste seated herseli at the inland piano in the Parlor. NY" .ning her fingers happily over yihe keys as the lines she had 1,05?- lesmed poured joyously lrom her throat.
"I'm a. tlhinkini of you honey.
Thinkint tease I love you so..
And my heart keeps thumPln'
and a-t:humpi'n'.
As I lhoe row alter row"--
"Sing the chorus with me." she said, looking up at Breck. who had ioliowed her into the parlor-
"I couldn't. sing a note to save my ii-le, Celeste."
"Nonsense! Oi course you Could- Everyone can sing. You too. Wil- tcr."
Walter had come into the parlor ioo now. Waller and Mrs. Fontainc and Anna. Only Olivier was miss- in. But in"i minute Celeste had all one others sinrinc with her:
"Row alter row. my baby.
Row liter row. my baby.
Row atter row. my biby.
Row aiter row."
Brock went, as usual, into the .TlL'ldS at six on Monday morning with Drew. returning to the house in time ior breakfast. He iound Anna alone on the piano. Mrs. Fontaine had sent down word that she was still a little tired. and ieit thctwshe should conserve her strcnglh ior the day's outing; she was seliishly kee-ping Celeste with her. Olivier had not. sent down -word at all. He had apparently taken it ior granted that he would receive service in his room. Anna .was inclined to be querulous again.
"I don't believe Mrs. Forntaine ever takes any exercise. At least she never seems to. it she got more lresh air she wouldn't ieel so tired. And 1 think it's dreadiul. Brock, for a young girl in her teens, periectly healthy. to get the habit oi in-eakiasting in bed. The more I see oi the way Celcsteis brought up, the less I think oi it. why, she isn't encouraged to make the slightest effort, to take the in- ilaiive in anything! And as tor a man having breakfast in his room--"
"You really wouldn't. call Oliv- ier Fonitaine a man. would you? ,He's Just a spoiled simp!" -
Ann immediately rose to the de- Iense oi Olivier. She was more and more intrigued by the handsome Creole all the time..

Breck leit the house as soon as the had finished breakiast Monday morning, inventing small desks with which to busy himseli. He had hardly slept at all, and he was .very jumpy: the hours were cer- -tainly dragging ior him. Until he could see Celeste. he know that he .would.,have no rest. He did not go back into the house until the last possible moment. and while he was changing his clothes Roscoe
.told him that he had visitors.
"Del-o's a Mr. de Gruy irom St. Msrtinvillo hero to see you. Mr. Break. He's got another gentleman with him. a Mr. do l-(autos-ive. .
