Chapter 416 Newfoundland General Leakage
Alan Wilson also took the time to ask about the current political environment in the United States, as a part of the upper class, at least and the director of the United States Steel Company Drake almost the same class of Smith Hammer, should have their own views.
Smith Hammer pondered for a moment, but also do not think, in front of an Englishman to say something wrong, think for a moment to open the mouth, “the war period has passed, in fact, we all desperately hope that Mr. Dewey can lead our country, the country is long in a party under the control of the party is always not good, and the Democratic Party’s philosophy, most people do not like it very much And most people don’t like the idea of the Democratic Party very much.”
Most people don’t like it very much? The corner of Alan Wilson’s mouth twitched a bit, this majority of people would be the middle and upper income class in the United States, right? The result of the election was clearly that Truman, who fought for the continuation of Roosevelt’s policies, won this election.
Because of the relationship between the Civil War, the Democratic Party in the United States belongs to is a historical burden of political parties, want to win a Republican Party once that is very difficult, unless the international situation is tense, otherwise the normal year election, the Republican Party as long as the completion of the party’s internal competition, basically eighty percent of the possibility of winning.
Excluding the two Democratic presidents Wilson and Roosevelt during World War I and II, there were only a handful of other election years in which the Democrats could win against the Republicans, and the margin of victory was not generally low.
Now that the war is over and most of the money men are in favor of a Republican comeback, if Dewey, who is so highly favored, loses the election, it can only mean that times have changed and that Roosevelt has completely taken the Democrats out of the historical burden of being the Democratic loser of the Civil War.
Obviously the Republican Party is also full of confidence in this regaining of power, which if lost, will certainly cause a very big impact on the Republican Party’s philosophy, no wonder after Truman’s victory, the Republican Party supported McCarthy like that, and before the Republican Party portrayed the image of the success of the successor contrary to the total loss of the eyes of the desperate.
Boston should also support the Republican Party, Alan Wilson felt that, at the end of the year if there is time, should take the time to go to see the Republican Party in the end of what state, for the first time in peacetime even the results of the popular vote lost, there are always some views on it, especially before the election, a situation of a good situation.
Allen Wilson, who had slightly done his duty as a landlord, personally escorted Smith Hamer to the ship, and the other party, still with a stunned expression, was on board, promising to go back and ask afterward what was done with all the garbage …… delicate pork knuckles and entrails that no one wanted.
As the richest country in the world today, the United States is also undergoing a food revolution, a contest called “Chicken of Tomorrow” kicked off in 1946, farmers and chicken farmers from all over the United States came to participate in the contest, they each selected the most satisfactory eggs, sent to the specially built facilities for hatching, chicks incubated and raised on a standard diet, with a dedicated staff that closely follows the chicks and monitors their appearance, weight and health.
This year, on the other hand, is the final year, and it is no surprise that the White Feathered Chicken will be the one to take advantage of this competition to ascend to the altar, going from the current one kilogram in fifty-six days, step by step, to four kilograms in forty-five days.
Tomorrow’s Chicken Scramble, very hot in the United States, the organizers invited celebrities and TV stations to broadcast live.
This is very much in line with Alan Wilson’s original intention, which he did, inviting Hollywood actresses to film a promotional video for Newfoundland, which included a Newfoundland spokesperson, as well as spokespersons representing forestry, fisheries, and tax-sheltered tourism, just waiting for people to arrive.
Just a few days after returning to the capital city of St. John’s, Allen Wilson received telegram after telegram, Pamela Mountbatten inquired about exactly where to go to explore, Allen Wilson in the middle of the return telegram said that this matter can not be rushed.
With his own experience into the deep forest as a lumberjack, his fiancée’s eagerness to persuade, if the front foot signed the contract, the back foot to find the iron ore, it is not obvious that the United Kingdom has long been aware of this matter, to hide it from the Australians?
Obviously a good thing to help the British mainland and Australia have a close relationship and forget the unpleasantness of the Singapore campaign. In case of screwing up that is not unattractive, Allen Wilson in the telegram in the middle of the thought that a year as a period more appropriate.
Allen Wilson projected the time, if next year’s now found iron ore, in the use of a year to make the necessary investment.
Then in the Korean War iron ore prices rise, almost exactly into the market. He still thinks the Korean War will break out, because after Hokkaido was occupied by the Soviet Union, the Americans still want half of the Korean Peninsula back.
The situation in Northeast Asia has not changed significantly from history, except for Hokkaido.
In contrast to this was the bombastic Red Navy building program, and in fact one thing that differentiated Stalin from Khrushchev was that Stalin was in fact extremely enthusiastic about the post-war building of the Red Navy, enthusiastic even beyond the actual needs of the current Soviet Union.
Before the Battle of Berlin, Stalin instructed the Navy to restart the construction of the “Grand Fleet”, including the resumption of the construction of the battleship USSR.
The Soviet Navy’s Scientific and Technical Committee also inspected the hull of the Kronstadt in the spring of 1945, but the ship was structurally well-balanced and well-protected, and could be converted into a new large aircraft carrier.
According to this plan, ten years after the end of the war, the Red Navy should have a fleet of four battleships, ten battlecruisers, thirty heavy cruisers, fifty-four light cruisers, six aircraft carriers, six small carriers, one hundred and thirty-two large destroyers, and two hundred and twenty-six destroyers.
Allen Wilson, in the bitterly cold land of Newfoundland, had likewise not forgotten his esteemed father-in-law, General Mountbatten, who was presiding over the partition of India and Pakistan.
Mountbatten’s schedule had been tight lately, having set out to run between India and Pakistan between two days for two Independence Day celebrations.
There’s also a son-in-law, far away in Newfoundland, who is inside the telegrams bibbling about the future of the key political Royal Navy. The problem was that Mountbatten, who had never forgotten his dream of being the future First Lord of the Admiralty, was not yet immune to the subject.
Alan Wilson’s telegram said, additional increase in military spending to build the Royal Navy, to the Labor Party’s advocacy is difficult enough. It is still more realistic to be able to complete the normal renewal, and there is still something to be done about the finances.
On how to cry poor Navy approach, Alan Wilson mentioned the construction of the Red Navy, which is not a secret, the Soviet Union at all levels of the five-year plan has written, all is public information.
Can successfully shape the Soviet Union Red Navy threat theory, may have a role in the normal renewal of the Royal Navy is not disturbed, if Mountbatten is willing to show this network, and the military bigwigs to communicate, there may be an unexpected effect.
Before the return call from his father-in-law came, Alan Wilson had another fireside chat after Smith-Hammer had left Newfoundland to explain discussions with Smith-Hammer about the development of the Newfoundland fisheries.
At the same time, the more primary purpose was to sneak in private stuff, to show sideways that the current state of Newfoundland was the most favorable for future development, and in the midst of this broadcast, Allen Wilson mentioned specific plans for the development of Newfoundland in three directions, including fisheries, forestry, and a trade free port.
“I’m young but I’ve been to quite a few places under the British Empire, but only Newfoundland has given me this impression that no one has ever seen what heaven is like, but Newfoundland fits my definition of heaven.”
Opening with a model of heaven above and Newfoundland below, Alan Wilson talks about how Newfoundland’s geographic location literally balances the continents of Europe and the Americas, and can do a lot of things well entirely by virtue of being in the middle of Europe and the Americas.
It’s close to being a straight-up Newfoundland version of flying on both wings, and in the middle of the broadcast, Allen Wilson’s anticipation of a trade free port and optimism about forestry resources are overflowing, but the only thing that comes out of the broadcast is that, after the usual compliments about the uniqueness of fisheries resources, he raises a concern.
“Modern society has become more efficient in acquiring resources, and it’s not clear if that’s a good or a bad thing. In terms of food, when we think that the gifts of God are inexhaustible, nature always reminds us not to be too optimistic about it.”
“In Mauritius, humans discovered the dodo, a bird that was declared extinct in the span of two hundred years ……”
“The Steller’s sea cows of the Bering Strait, the largest animals besides whales, were extinct only twenty-seven years from the time they were discovered.”
“Once the skies of North America were so covered with traveler pigeons that the sun was blocked out once they took off. With a size of five billion pigeons it only lasted a hundred years.”
“Now society’s technology is skyrocketing and trawlers are being built bigger and bigger and sailing farther and farther. The Newfoundland fishery is a coveted target in the eyes of trawlers from all sorts of unknown countries, and it’s too late to stop the poaching. If I agree to the proposal to increase production, I will be opening up the Newfoundland fishery to trawlers, and the citizens of Newfoundland will get money in the short term, but perhaps in twenty years the fishery will be fished out of existence.”
In the middle of his broadcast, Alan Wilson stated that he would never be selfish enough to just give away Newfoundland’s natural treasures and turn it into a one-time deal.
And the subtext was that Newfoundlanders had undisputed control over the Newfoundland fishery as long as they could make it their own.
Trawlers from other countries would only dare to sneak in and poach, but if Newfoundland became part of another country, its fate would be out of its hands.
He couldn’t make it too obvious in the official broadcast, but of course, the interpretation of his current broadcast leaked out, not surprisingly, and created a discussion among the residents of Newfoundland.
