10609-04 Auger 2/6/04 10:35 AM Page 47 MARTIN F. AUGER ‘A Tempest in a Teapot’: Canadian Military Planning and the St. Pierre and Miquelon Affair, 1940-1942 THE SMALL FRENCH COLONY OF ST. PIERRE AND MIQUELON, located some 32 kilometers off the south shore of Newfoundland, was a source of great concern for the Canadian government during the Second World War.1 When Nazi Germany defeated France in June 1940, the fate of the French Empire became uncertain. Canada and other Allied countries feared that French colonies might be used by the Germans to conduct military operations against them. The proximity of St. Pierre and Miquelon to Canada and the British colony of Newfoundland constituted a major threat. Negotiations immediately ensued between the American, British and Canadian governments as to the future of France’s territories in the Western Hemisphere. The main argument was whether or not the French islands needed to be occupied by Allied military forces. The issue, however, was solved in December 1941 when the Free French movement of General Charles de Gaulle sent a small naval task force to rally the archipelago to the Allied cause. Most historians who have analyzed the St. Pierre and Miquelon affair of 1940 to 1942 have focused upon the Free French takeover. Although some historians have studied Canada’s role in the affair from a diplomatic perspective, none have provided an in-depth analysis of Canadian military planning during this crisis.2 It is now clear that Canada undertook significant planning to launch an invasion. An understanding of the details of Canada’s invasion plan and the ultimate decision to postpone military action illuminates the changing structure of Canada’s relations with Great Britiain and the United States. -

Norton & Company has been in depen dent since its founding in 1923, when William Warder Norton and Mary D. Herter Norton fi rst published lectures delivered at the People’s Institute, the adult education division of New York City’s Cooper Union. The fi rm soon expanded its program beyond the Institute, publishing books by celebrated academics from America and abroad. By midcentury, the two major pil- lars of Norton’s publishing program— trade books and college texts— were fi rmly established. In the 1950s, the Norton family transferred control of the company to its employees, and today— with a staff of four hundred and a comparable number of trade, college, and professional titles published each year— W.

None Dare to Call It Treason
The Origin of Communism* Communists everywhere support every revolutionary movement against the existing political and social order of things. The communists disdain to conceal their aims. Let the ruling classes tremble at a communist revolution. The proletarians have nothing to lose but their chains. They have a world to win. Working men of all countries, unite! – Karl Marx, The Communist Manifesto The story of communism is a story of contradictions. Despite Marx’s call for the workers of the world to unite, communism has never been a working class movement. Its strength is in the intellectual and thought centers of the world. Communism is commonly believed to rise out of poverty. Yet Fidel Castro was a product, not of the cane fields of Cuba, but of the halls of Havana University. Joseph Stalin was not a simple peasant rebelling at the oppression of the Czar. He became a communist while studying for the priesthood in a Russian Orthodox seminary. Dr. Cheddi Jagan, communist premier of British Guiana, became a communist, not as an “exploited” worker on a plantation of a British colonial colony, but as a dental student at Chicago’s Northwestern University. The membership of the first Communist spy ring uncovered in the U.S. Government was not spawned in the sweat shops of New York’s lower east side or the tenant farms of the South. Alger Hiss, Nathan Witt, Harry Dexter White, Lee Pressman, John Abt, Lauchlin Currie and their comrades came to high government posts from Harvard Law School. The Senate Internal Security Subcommittee’s Handbook for Americans delves into why people become Communists. -
The Nonpartisan League
FURTHER READINGS ON The Nonpartisan League “The history of the League is a compelling chapter in the struggle by farmers throughout our country’s history. The dramatic story of the NPL’s rapid rise to power and equally rapid decline has long been of interest to historians and other scholars … The League appeals to nonacademic readers as an exciting story of political and social confrontation played out by seemingly larger-than-life characters.”1 The standard work on the Nonpartisan League remains Robert Loren Morlan’s Political Prairie Fire: The National Nonpartisan League, 1915-1922 (Minneapolis: University of Minnesota Press, 1955); reprinted by Greenwood Press (1974) and Minnesota Historical Society Press (1985). Morlan's well- written, evocative account depends largely on League sources and offers an interpretation favorable to the organization. Morlan’s work includes an extensive bibliography of books, government documents, pamphlets, articles, theses and archival documents regarding the history of the League. In 1985 the Minnesota Historical Society Press published an updated bibliography of works about the League, The Nonpartisan League 1915-22: An Annotated Bibliography, by Patrick K. Coleman and Charles R. Lamb. Their bibliography includes works that have become available since Morlan’s book was published. Another major work is NPL journalist Herber Gaston's The Nonpartisan League (New York: Harcourt, Brace & Howe, 1920); it is totally undocumented, but is the most often cited of the "first generation histories." Other early works include Charles Edward Russell’s The Non-Partisan League (New York: Harper & Brothers, 1920), and Andrew A. Bruce’s Non-Partisan League (New York: Macmillan Co., 1921). -

Whittaker Chambers Testifies" Carroll County Times Article for 16 August 1998 by Jay A
"Whittaker Chambers Testifies" Carroll County Times article for 16 August 1998 By Jay A. Graybeal In August 1948, Whittaker Chambers, A Time magazine editor who lived on a farm on Bachman's Valley Rd. in Carroll County, read a prepared statement charging that a number of government officials were communists. The story was published in the August 6 issue of the Westminster Democratic Advocate newspaper: "FORMER COMMUNIST TESTIFIES BEFORE COMMITTEE Whitaker Chambers, living on Bachman's Valley road, on the Thomas farm, who said he was a Communist from 1924 to 1937 testified Tuesday that the Red 'underground' then included Alger Hiss, State Department official, before the House of Un-American Activities Committee, in Washington on Tuesday. Chambers, now an associate editor of Time magazine, said in a prepared statement read to the House committee that he himself 'served in the underground, chiefly in Washington.' He said there was an underground organization developed, to the best of his knowledge, by Harold Ware, one of the sons of the Communist leader known as 'Mother Bloor.' He went on: 'I knew it at its top level, a group of seven or so men, from among whom, in the late years, certain members of Miss (Elizabeth T.) Bentley's organization were apparently recruited.' 'The head of the underground group was Nathan Witt, an attorney for the National Labor Relations Board. Later John Abt became the leader. 'Lee Pressman was also a member of this group, as was Alger Hiss, who, as a member of the State Department, later organized the conferences at Dumbarton Oaks, San Francisco and the United States side of the [Y]alta Conference.' Miss Bentley, mentioned by Chambers, is the young woman who told a sensational story last week of collecting information for the Russians from scores of Government employees during the war. -
