BRITISH FREEDOM

Sir, - In your feature "The Poels' Corner" (April 7) I noted Wordswortlfa dealhless lines on "British Freedom" which include the thought which have today a global sweep:

"We must be free or die. who speak the tongue

That Sbakesmare spoke; die faith and morals hold

which Milton held . . ."

The lead item l.n your "Editor- ial Notes" on that same page says: William Wordsworth born this data. 1770.

The above is the impulse for the following spot of 20th century comment from a man in the street: la) that, undoubtedly, there never was so wide a tide of human freedom as that which roll: at the present hour; not- withstanding the bleak fact that dictatorial lyraniiy also covers more millions of human beings than in all history; and lb) that of course. the urge for freedom is, today. given a global measure- of

spirit? .

Somehow. I seem to see a rela- tionship between the passing of Georgi Maleukov from the Soviet spotlight. as a result of the ad- mitted fallure of collective peas- ant agriculture, and the following immortal lines with which the polillcal philosopher, John Stuart Mill. closed his great manifesto against despotism of all kinds. On Liberty: "The worth of a State, in the long run. in the worth of

the individuals composing it; and

a State which postpones the in- ierests of their mental expansion and elevation to a little more of administratice skill. or of that semblance of it which practice gives, in the details of business; a State which dwarfs its men. in order that they may be more docile iuslriuneuls in its hands even for beneficial purposes-wlll find that with small men no great thing can really be complished; and that the perfection of machi- nery io which it has sacrificed everything will in the end avail it nothing. for want. of the vital power which. in order Iliat ilie machine might work more smooth- ly. It has preferred to banish." 11851).

I ponder, with respect and ad- miration. the character and abil- ity of the people on Canada's 620.000 farms!

BRITISH COLONIALISM

"Of one thing I'm certain, Stalin is no imperialist . . . I've tried to make it clear to Winston mint) they must never gel the idea we're in lt'(l.be war) lust to help them in bank an to their anchale, medieval Empire ideas."

history books we were proud to call William the Conqueror. The Normans colonized the whole of England and established I system of law and order where previously the people had been divided into warring tribes and petty king- doms.

From that time forward the British people became more and more united and their sailors and traders began to venture beyond the scan to explore distant lauds. They little knew at that time that they were the pioneers of an Em- like that would outmatcb that of ancient Rome. They swept the Spanish Main from the seas and opened the gateway to the Western World for all nations to colonize the North American continent. They turned to Africa and the Far East and sailed south to the Antipodes where they founded col- onies in the wilds of Australia. Cruising the Far East in search of trade. they established t at Singapore. Shanghai and Hon; 3. When they went to India they found it in a state of chaos owing to periodic invasions from without and perpetual civil and religious strife wlthln. For a hun- dred years Britain governed India in peace. and in withdrawing sbven years ago handed over the gov- ernment to Hindus and Moslems whom they had educated and train- ed ln the principles of Western democracy. Nehru himself recently admitted that. although he is a full-blooded East Indian he feel: lie is also an Englishman.

Egypt and the Sudan are other countries that under British rule emerged from a state of semi- barbarlsm and national bank- ruptcy. in a recent CBC broadcast Arthur Galtskell. of the British Information Services. told an in- leresting story of how the Sudan had been reclalined from the de- sert and its primitive people re- scued from starvation by the Gezlra Projecti Mr. Galtskell was himself in charge of that great un- dertaking. The Sudan was a hot and dusty plain bordering on the Sahara. but the Blue Nile ran through it and its waters were turned to the land In a great ir- rigation scheme. Today the Sudan loolzs from the air like a huge grrcn oasis producing food. fodder and cotton crops. which have made famine in mere memory. Mr. Gait- skell emphasized that the Gezira Project was not planned by ldeologists. but was financed by private risk capital and carried out by conservative administrations and business men.

That is but one example of what Mr. Roosevelt at Yalta called "archaic, medieval Empire ideas." Britain was developing backward nations long before the United Nations was ever thought of. I am. Sir. elc.

Britain Trains Her Youth

(Globe and Mali

More than I million young Brit- ons have done their period of com- pulsory service (currently two years) with that country's armed services, A further 250.000 are now doing it. According to an article by Mr. John Prince in the Iandon Dally Telezrapii - reprinted on this page some days ago - the great majority .of these young men accept their service period as a necessity. They are not entliuiilaa. tic about it: one could not rea- sonably expect them to be. But they do it without serious com- plalnt.

Moat, according to survey: cited by Mr. Prince. get some good out of it. Roughly two out of three, on returning to civilian life, felt their two-year stretch had been used both to the country's full advantage and to their own. A War Office study quotes in per cent as saying they ealoyed it; and 96 per cent as saying it had developed their character and self-reliance.

Can this country learn something from the British experience? They, of course. have had forty years. off and on. of compulsory military service. It was In oduced halfway through the Pin World War, in 1916. and dropped when that war ended. It was re-introduced a few months before the start of the Second World War in 1939. and is still with them. Four years from now. Britain will have had twenty continuous years of it. Canada, by contrast has bad compulsory serv- ice only for brief periods in each of the two wars; and each time. It turned out to be a shambles. Or rather, was made so by politic- lans.

Canada's population and geo- graphy do not under present cir- cumstances warrant universal serv- ice in the Brltlsli style .- two years' enlistment for every fit young man on reaching the age of eighteen. But if it is seriously con- cerned with lta own defense, and with its collective obligations. it must make a beginning on pre- paredness samewiu-re.

When he's about seven months old, offer him an ounce or two of his milk mixture once a day from a cup. If this works, gradually give him more milk from a cup at his other feeding times. By the age of nine or ten months. he should be drinking all or at least most of his milk from I cup.

Usually, your tot will learn what is expected of him and will gladly drink from a cup. Some babies. though. will give their anxious mothers a difficult time. Iill have some tips tomorrow on what toido if your baby spurns a cup.

As for the breast-fed baby, you can begin glvlngdilm milk from I cup as soon as complete weaning is begun.

When your infant is about a year old, let him try drinking his milk by himself. Place I smell. two-ounce cup on his tray at man! "Eh- tima. Put just a little milk in it because he's likely to spill It at first.-He'll probably try to imitate you and drink it by himself. With a little practice he'll be holding the cup and drinking without any help from you. It might be a little messy, though.

Somewhere between 11 and 15 months, the drinking problem will be solved. He'll grasp the cup with both hands and down bia milk like a veteran.
