Keen as the competition between

stsnd still; It must either so forward
or backward The siren song of self

does, It listens to the song of a Lor

The fight of the western cities Is,
not to Increase their -populntloh, but
to build up {he country constituting/
their territory with people who will j
develop the land and be producers of I
what the people In the rlty cqjuume,;
while the latter become coaifemaifcj
of the products of the cities indus
tries. They realise that in the re
construction of our social t a brie we
list recognise our Interdependence.
Applying the prfoelplee alluded to
loeally, many of the people of Balti

are studying the conditions, and havp
