Finland's present program is far from communization or even socialization. One extreme left-winger told me, crossly: "Even Finnish Socialists prefer to make small reforms in the existing capitalist system rather than change it for a new system." Said an industrialist: "Our Socialists are really very sound fellows. They are in the difficult position of having to talk a lot of socialization to attract the masses, without doing any real socializing...
Ludger Dionne, 59, is a canny industrialist who operates, among other things, a shoe factory, a heel factory and a rayon mill-all in St. Georges (pop. 6,000). Most of his rayon-mill hands-he runs two shifts, 6 a.m. to 2 p.m. and 2 p.m. to 10 p.m.-are daughters of local farmers. About 50 of them live in Le Foyer, a dormitory built as an annex to the Convent of the Sisters of the Good Shepherd. On the first floor of the greystone four-story building are a cafeteria, a recreation room and parlors where the girls...

He explained that he knew "seven or eight other men" who would be willing to contribute a fund to buy a Dominion Government annuity for Gouzenko. Told that $24,000 would buy an annuity paying him $100 a month for life, the businessman said:"Never mind the other fellows...
...Grundy had founded P.M.A. 38 years ago and dedicated it to the principle that what is good for industry and Republicanism is good for the state and the country. To Uncle Joe, who was an industrialist himself (as owner of Grundy woolen mills), political contributions were "investments" which paid off with favorable legislation. At his call, P.M.A. members had contributed untold millions to G.O.P. campaigns...
