PROPHECIES for 1948,
ONE PROBLEM TO TACKLE IN 1948
““Candidus”
TROUGHOUT uptohension to THROUGHOUT the world today, untold millions, 1948. They see nothing but Intrigue, mistrust and bloodshed and, in their utter helplessness, wonder why? They look in vain for leaders, scoing only puppets and false prophets.
And yet there is a ray of hope that inter- national sanity will return to the world. It is the hope that free and freedom-loving nations will so order their own affairs that the collective result will not only enhance the prosperity of the world, but will serve as an example and warning to others, who appear to be the hindrance in international accord.
Although we criticise the British Govern- ment and sometimes even blame them for the state of affairs in the United Kingdom, we can console ourselves in the knowledge that the Bri- tish Empire, Dominions and Colonies stand firm In their determination that nothing shall inter- rupt the freedom of British people. It is the profound belief that each member of the British Commonwealth of Nations is staunch in its sup- port of unity which encourages us.
Hongkong, small as it may be, stands out as an example of what orderly Government should be, and its example compares well with any other part of the Empire. There are, of course, many problems to be solved, if we are to prosper and justify our existence, and it is to be hoped that the most pressing of these will bo dealt with suc- cessfully before 1948 passes.
