WORLD'S WEEK;
By HAROLD L. WEIR Assoc, Editor, The Edmonton Bulletin
The thorny question of renewed Franco-German collaboration appears to have struck an early snag in Chief of State Marshal Henri Philip Petain’s refusal to agree to important new Nazi demands,
Vichy showed an inclination to pick up “collaboration” following German announced advances in Russia which made a deep impression on many of the easily convinced leaders of the new France, The Nazis took immediate advantage of the situation and said that Vichy must make a token move as evidence of good faith in future dealings,
All they asked was the removal of Gen, Weygand as commander of the French north African forces and per- haps his appointment to some distant unrelated post,
The demand, foreshadowed for some time in Vichy, carried considerable concern there, Few doubt that it was but a forerunner of insistence on ad- ditional concessions although for the moment the Nazis are not asking fur- ther north African facilities, which Petain strongly opposes.
The disappearance of Gen, Weygand as an active leader would remove, a- | side from the Marshal himself, "the last major uncertain factor in French reactions to German plans, The de-|
mand was presented to Adm’! Darlan |
in Paris the middle of last week al- most in the form of an ultimatum although it carried no specified time limit, In event of refusal, the Nazis declared, they would reconsider the “armistice terms.”
Aside from its strategic importance, the North African problem has anoth. | er important aspect, Many fee] that the question of Franco-American rela- | tionships hinges on Vichy’s course. Concessions would provoke a rupture with the United States—a éondition the Nazis have been trying for some |
months to achieve, a
The fate of French North Africa is | one of the most vital phases of the |
entire policy of collaboration, Vichy has resisted—formally, at any rate, but each new German set-back has been followed by altered demands, us- ually for French concessions, although on a reduced scale,
It may now be disclosed that on May 28 the collaborationists supported by Adm’l Darlan reached an agree- ment with the Nazis for turning over the important naval base of Bizerta and holding out promises of a similar surrended of Casablanca in the near future,
in return the Freieh were: offered certain relatively small concessions re- garding the demarcation line and oth- er internal relationships, The agree- ment was to have been implemented on July 15 but Marshal] Petain re- fused to initial it, using as technical
grounds the alleged Nazis failure to} honor their end of the bargain, Adm’l |
Darlan himse]f is reported to be chag-
rined by the German double-dealing |
and to be less trustful now of their promises, * . *
The steady advance of German ar- mies in Russia~ intensified debate in the United States and Britain as to why the British do not attempt a new invasion of the continent as a

CARBON OLD TIMERS TO HAVE BANQUET, DANCE ON THURSDAY, NOV. 13
The annual banquet and dance of the Carbon Old Timer’s Association is to be held in the Farmers Exchange hall, Carbon on Thursday, November 13th, The banquet is scheduled to com- mence at 7:00 p.m, sharp, and_ the committee in charge promise a boun- tiful repast,
According to wording on the posters, now distributed, “the banquet will be followed by a super-interesting, and super-amusing program of local tal- ent, assisted by Humorous, Half-baked Hollywood Humdingers, Mrs, Trainor’s famous “Hell Bellies” orchestra — will furnish the music, and the admission jcharge will be, each person, banquet 50c; Dance 50c.
“Qualifications to attend—(40-0z)— Those who came to Alberta before De- ‘cember 81, 1911, and have resided in the Carbon district for five years, their wives or husbands, and families 20 years of age and over, Also those who |have resided in the Carbon district for {25 years.”
C.H. Nash is president of the Car- bon Old Timers’ Association, and H.M. McNaughton will be the floor manager on the above occasion.
The slogan “Make new friends, but keep the old; The new are silver, the old ones Gold” has been adopted,
The Old Timers look for a_ large jcrowd this year at their annual gath- ering, and you are cordially invited to attend if you come under the stated qualifications,
[ nn {and so seriously doubt their ability to make a successful invasion of Norway, France or Italy at this moment that they have no intention of making such an attempt,
In the opinion of American ag well /as British military experts the British do not have sufficient trained men and adequate material to stage a success- ful invasion in the west this fall.
An unsuccessful attempt at invas- ion would have such disasterous con- sequences for Great Britain itself and for the anti-Axis cause umong the conquered peoples that ‘it would be a foolish undertaking,
It is possible, of course, that Win- ston Churchill may #nd@° they @niet for a diversion so potent as to compel an attempt at invasion in the west despite its obvious risks but there were no such indications last week.
To this commentator it appears to be much more likely that the British will throw such military strength as they can give Russia into the Caucas- us in an attempt, to keep the Germans out of the oi] fields which are their primary objective in the present cam- paign,
If Hitler can get the oil of the Cau- }casus and Iran he will be in a_ posi- tion to wage war indefinitely and the chances of successful resistance by
Great Britain and the United States | will be drastically reduced,
The Germans calculate that they can rehabilitate the Caucasus oil fields to at least 50 per cent capacity with- in six months regardless of damage done by the Russians,

THE WORLD OF WHEAT REVIEWED WEEKLY BY MAJOR H.G.L. STRANGE
Some people blame the economic system known as “laissez-faire” for the accumulation of the Canadian wheat surplus, and so fur the present low price of wheat,
By “laissez-faire” is meant that or- der which for long we had become used to, and by which merchants sold the farmers’ products on the markets ofthe world, and brought back to farmers in exchange the goods and commodities made by city people; and all without any undue interferences by Governments, The fact, however, that wheat markets have been lost, and that a wheat surplus has aceumu- lated, is evidence, allege these people, that the system of “laissez-faire” has broken down, and so must be replaced by a so-called “planned economy”,
The truth is that is is not “laissez- faire” that has failed, but that Gov- ernments with their policies of high tariffs, quotas and other restrictions to international trade, have interfered with that healthy system of “laissez- faire” and so have made it impossible for merchants to perform their proper functions,
What is needed, therefore, is not the abolishing of “laissez-faire” but rather
the abolishing of those tariff walls and |
other ingenious interferences with le- gitimate trade, that have prevented “laissez-faire” from functioning in the
interests of farmers and of all of us.:

Fight For Victory
War is no longer just a series of tactical exercises between professional soldiers. It is nation against nation, says a writer in the Financial Post.
Hitler has pitted the force and strength of the entire German people (and all the slave labor and “loot” of a rich continent) against the re-
sources-- human, material and spiritual—of the democratic nations. He fights--as we must fight- with political weapons, psychological weapons and economic weapons,
In an “all-out” fight for Victory, the whole population is engaged.
Every John Canuck has some Hans Schmidt whose effort he must matech— and surpass. Thus there is in Canada a factory front. There is a metals front, a financial front, a farm front. Together they comprise the economic front, equal in importance to the military front comprised of the fighting armies, air squadrons and naval ships.

Ponder on those simple facts and you see why 18 workers on the home front are needed to keep one combatant in the field. You see why the economic front is a “front” and not just a sector or salient in this war,
* . . * Must Be United
The story of the economic mobilization of Canada is the story of an entire nation bracing itself to carry the greatest load it ever tried to carry. A load involving as great an effort as the very opening up of the country and the construction of the first canals, the first highways and the first trans-continental railway system,

Women Accomplish Miracles
Thousands Of Articles Of Clothing Made By Women Of Canada (By Gregory Clark) | Seven hundred and fifty thousand | articles of women’s and children’s clothing have been made by Canada’s | women and shipped to Britain, and distributed. Eighty thousand blan- | kets and quilts. Bandages, surgical
and first aid dressings by the mil-|
lions, all made by these same Cana- dian women who take a dollar, buy
the raw material and make two dol-|
lars worth of the goods of mercy out of it. Each of the twelve home defence
jteen provided by the Canadian Red |Cross and ready to leave at an in- |stant’s notice for the scene of a | bombing, cooking the food and pre- paring the tea as it goes. One hun- dred and fifty ambulances have been bought and paid for by Red Cross branches and are in use to-day in the rescue of civilian bomb victims. That number does not include 40 additional ambulances supplied to our Canadian troops overseas.
| In May, the Canadian Red Cross | organized a special fund to support the work amongst the bomb victims. It is called the Red Cross British Bomb Victims’ Fund. Every cent contributed to that fund goes to the purchase of materials that will be |made up by the women of Canada into garments for women and chil- dren, air raid shelter cloaks and baby layettes, maternity garments for women, and equipment, first aid and medical supplies. Every dollar given to that fund becomes two dol- lars worth of actual goods deliver- ed. None of this fund will go as money to Britain. It will go as goods made by the skilled hands of |Canada’s million Red Cross volun- teer workers. Regardless of what
undertakings amongst our soldiers and sailors, or in its far-flung work in Canada amongst pioneer settle- ments, it is suggested that a gift to the Red Cross British Bomb Vic- tims’ Fund will be a_ particularly blessed donation to enable the wo- men of Canada to rush every kind of aid over to Britain before another winter and its perils comes.
By a wonderful series of mis- chances and redirections, these wo- men were successful in having in Britain a vast store of goods even at the start of this blackest year in human history which was last Sep- tember when the Battle of Britain began. With the aid of the Red Cross British Bomb Victims’ Fund, they will repeat that miracle for Britain.

Labor Training Programs
Shortage Of Labor To Man Busy War Factories Is Seen
Canada, dipping deep into her re- serves of labor to man increasingly busy factories, has also extended labor training programs to an ex- tent unknown in the past, Labor De- partment officials said.
War emergency training program | reports that 33,003 persons’ took training from April 1 to August 30. The 93 schools and training centres
reported 10,063 were actually in training on August 1. Large numbers of those in the
lower age groups of-the classes are ; young men who have been rejected for enlistment. Selection officers have instructions to avoid admitting to classes men of military age ex- cept those rejected.
In the industrial classes, discharged soldiers of the present war are re-| ceiving training alongside veterans of the First Great War. In the ex- soldier category, 1,050 men were be- ing trained in the April 1 to August! 30 period, and of these 48 were be-| tween 16 and 19 years; 327 from 20] {to 29; 148 from 30 to 39; 368 from 40 to 49 and 126 from 50 years up- |ward. The total included 33 trainees | {whose ages were still to be sub-| | mitted. | Of the total of 10,719 new trainees of all types enrolled between April 1 and August 30, the largest group, |3,972, was in the 20 to 29 years age | class. | Officials said that during August} new trainees entering the classes | numbered 4 365 of whom, 1,415 were enrolled in industrial training courses, 1,322 joined Royal Canadian) | Air Force classes and 1,628 were re- ferred to the schools by the army jand navy for trade training. | From the classes, 1,598 were placed in employment in August, 434 |who had completed their training in| R.C.A.F. classes enlisted and 34 from | the industrial classes enlisted in other units. Army and navy person- |nel who completed their training in | August numbered 1,260. | Officials said that booming labor | requirements indicated ordinary re-| serves would soon be exhausted and | other sources would have to be ex-| jamined. They said that in non-agri- | /cultural employment figures for all | |Canada showed a jump of 26.3 per cent. between April, 1940, and April, | | 1941. | Dominion Bureau of Statistics fig- ‘ures showed that while a reserve of | young people who had never worked | |was built up during the depression |years it had been heavily drawn on | since the start of the war. The reg- | istration of August, 1940, showed) 32,000 males and 459,000 females had | |never worked, but officials said this | total had been reduced since that time.
For Longer Life
|Medical Authority Thinks Man Can} Be Made To Live 200 Or 300 Years Dr. Maurice Ernest, 69, one of the | world’s greatest authorities on |longevity, said that he would estab- lish after the war a_ laboratory | |where he can develop his theories | that man can be made to live 200} or 300 years. | Many discoveries that point the) |way to periodical rejuvenation with- | out surgery already have been made, | he said, and in this respect, the hu-| man race might take a hint from | the fish. |
“One of the many causes of aging | is that man produces too much in- ternal heat,” he said. “Fish, which have the same temperature as the} water in which they live, never grow | old in the sense that their flesh be- ‘comes tough. |
Although he did not suggest that | humans seek some way to live in water, he said:

Airmen Are Good Cooks Twenty-Second Class Graduates In Special Course At Guelph
Seven of the Canadian provinces, England and Scotland, were repre- sented’ in the class of airmen who graduated from the Royal Canadian Air Force School of Cookery, at- tached to the No. 4 Wireless School, at Ontario Agricultural College, Guelph.
The group is the twenty-second class to graduate from the special short course since it was instituted about two years ago, and is the third class to be officially gradu- ated with fitting ceremony.
The men were recommended for graduation by Flight Lieutenant Dr. H. D. Branion, one-time head of the and and now in charge of the air force cooking school. Praise for their work and achievements, was given by Wing Commander A. H. Keith Russell, officer commanding the local wireless school, who presented the diplomas. He stressed the import- ance of the cook in effectiveness of air activities. The class was pre- sented by Flight Lieutenant W. M. Thomson, M.C., D.F.C., adjutant of the wireless school.

Money Easily Earned Man Made A Particularly Good Bargain With Hunter Richard Brinsley Sheridan, the famous English playwright, after hunting all day without success, was returning to his home when he no- ticed a flock of ducks resting on a pond. A man seated on the shore was watching the birds, and Sheri- dan asked him: “What will you take for a shot at the ducks?” The man looked up at him thoughtfully. “I think a sovereign will do,” he fin- ally said. Sheridan paid him the money. Then, taking aim, he fired into the middle of the flock, killing quite a number. Joyfully he turned to the man. “I'm afraid you made a bad bargain,” he laughed. “Oh, I don’t know,” replied the other.
“Theyre not my ducks.”
“My word this tastes good,” said the old lady, drinking a glass of beer for the first time. “It’s just like the medicine my husband has been taking for the last 40 years.”

Famous Geographer Says That Some Future Day The Prairies Will Be Well Treed
In a few thousand years what is now bare prairie will be dense for- est, Dr. Griffith Taylor, Professor of | Geography in the University of To- ronto, predicted, looking over the Canadian scene.
Dr. Taylor, who occupies the only chair of Geography in any univers- ity in Canada, spent the last few months acquiring firsthand knowl- edge of the Canadian picture.
“I need not stress the necessity for young Canadians to learn some- thing of the relation between the resources and present and future settlement in the Dominion,” says! the famous geographer, who Is presi-| dent of the Association of America Geographers, and whose many travels and adventures’ included a visit to the Antarctic with Scott.
“It was sheer delight to find a! spot of jungle in the midst of the prairies,” he said, referring to the reforestation project at Indian Head. “Here they have gnticipated Nature. Not so long ago the prairies were! covered with ice and the climate| was against tree growth. But at | Indian Head, where all was bare as lately as 36 years ago, they planted cottonwood and evergreens and the director's house is set in a veritable junglewood. Of course, they corseted the saplings to protect them and give them a start.
“The prairies should be looking to Siberia for ideas. The climate in| Siberia is very similar and what can! be grown there can be grown on| the prairies. Among the plants brought over during the last 30 years from Siberia is the Caragana hedge plant. It is the best hedge and shelter plant and every farm can have a belt of it 20 feet high,” Dr. Taylor added. “Siberian clovers, it is also found, grow eceedingly well on) the prairies. Here you have a case) of agriculturists doing what the! geographers are preaching—study- | ing home of similar climes. North-| ern Australia, for: example,
should study Nigeria to ascertain what will best grow in that part of Australia.”
The prime purpose of Dr. Taylor's | visit to the West was to study the. anatomy of Canadian towns. “We| are. working backwards and attempt- | ‘ing to discover what has determined | the growth and structure, in the! hope that we may help the town-| planners of the future,’ he explain- | ed. “It was a real joy to come| across a town like Prince Rupert which was planned from the begin- ning and laid out in decent design. | It is all knobs and hills and it has, been laid oyt in three units. Here! they have gotten rid of the infernal, chessboard pattern and they will not, have to build costly viaducts, like those in Toronto, to relieve traffic, congestion. Prince Rupert has a population of only six or seven) thousand but at present it is solid with newcomers. There are three) thousand of them who have gone} there for home defence and you can) not get a bed. It is one hundred miles | nearer to Yokohama than Van-| couver and some day it will be a thriving centre.” | The spot that most intrigued him, | he said, was Prince George in Bri-| tish Columbia, “Here is a tract of, one milion acres in many ways simi- | lar to the clay belt of Northern On- tario,” reported Dr. Taylor. ‘True, | it is not as rich but I had to be’ driven 25 miles to be shown a piece of rock, ‘There are several thous- and people there now. But, although |
jacy, in soil surveys, in social plan-
| service, | journalism.
some three thousand feet high with lakes nestling in between. The rall- way, instead of passing through a series of tunnels, ascends and descends the ridges doing about 20 miles in three hours. This is a route which might well be developed and publicized as a tourist attraction,” Dr. Taylor believes.
Dr. Taylor hopes that matricula- tion geography will be taught in the high schools of Ontario within a few years. One of the main purposes of his department, he says, is to pro- vide for a better teaching of geog- raphy in the schools.
“There is a vast need for more teachers trained in geography,” he states. ‘Toronto is the only uni- versity in Canada with an independ- ent department, though valuable lec- tures are given at Vancouver, Lon- don, Hamilton, Kingston, and Mont- real. Judging by British and Ameri- can experience and* populations, we should have some 40 full-time uni- versity teachers in this country in- stead of five or six.
“Only in a few ultra-conservative countries like Canada is geography crowded out of the curriculum by classics. How can an _ imperfect knowledge of Latin and Greek help our youth to meet the problems of this rapidly contracting world? It seems to me that no subject should be as helpful as modern geography in this connection.”
Not only is there a need for teach- ers of geography but the Dominion Civil Service could use geographers as is done on a large scale in Eng- land and the United States, Dr. Tay- lor says. Geographers are needed, he points out, in statistics, in diplom-
in the weather and in certain branches of | In the military field, a! knowledge of the principles determ- ing the various topographies, land and water routes, distribution of oil, iron, et cetera, is of major import- nce.
The Department of Natural Re- sources is doing a very valuable ser- vice, Dr. Taylor emphasizes, in its production of maps. “These maps are way ahead of anything they have in Australia,” sfiys the | geographer, himself an Australian and for many years on the staff of the University of Sydney.

Facing The Truth
‘If The Nazis Win, It Will Be The | End Of Civilization
| We should think of what is tak- ing place to-day, not as a war for power but as a great counter-revolu- tion against our culture. In the Nazi
lust for destruction the sickness | within our world has come to an ugly head. The policy of words
without deeds, the fear of facing the bold simple truth, has weakened us to such an extent that this disease could arise. If the Nazis win we shall not have a new order instead of the old; we shall have no order at all. If the Nazis win we shall descend into the long night which follows the death of every great civilization. What is happening, I suggest, is not a war in any ordi- nary sense. What is happening is |the disintegration of our world, the counter-revolution against our world. |The counter-revolution goes for- |ward in many countries where there jis no war, as in parts of South ; America. In this dire world of to- |day war is almost a healthy sign, | because war means that someone is |resisting the revolution of destruc- tion.—From a broadcast to Britain by Herbert Agar, Louisville, Ky.

SIN AND ITS CONSEQUENCES
Golden text: If we confess jour sins, he is faithful and righteous to forgive us our sins, and to cleanse Te from all unrighteousness, I. John Lesson: Genesis 3:1-24; Psalm 14: -8; Jeremiah 17:9, 10; Mark 7:20- 3; Romans 1:18-32, 6:23; Galatians :7, 8; James 1:18-15; I. John 1:5, 16; Revelation 22:10-12.
Devotional Reading: Psalm 51:1-13.
Explanations and Comments
We Reap What We Sow, Galatians 6:7, 8. Be not deceived, God is not mocked, as they who expect to es- Cape the consequences of their ac- tions seem to think they can mock him. God's law of the spiritual harvest is that whatsoever a man sows that shall he also reap. We usually think of this as referring to retribution for wrong-doing, and so it does, but the happier meaning is also true that “he who sows wheat reaps wheat, not tares.” Verse eight is a particular example coming un- der the general truth expressed in verse seven. “The fiesh’” is here thought of as the evil nature. “The |punishments which God’ inflicts are jnatural punishments. They grow out of the wrongs that men com- mit. As the plaht grows out of the seed, as the man grows out of the child, so do punishments which God imposes come out of the sins that men have done” (John Byles). |_ What God Is and What We Should |Be, 1 John 1:5, 6. The message which John had_ received from |Christ (see verses 1-3) and which he now hands on, is that God is light, and in him is no darkness (moral! |darkness, i.e. sin) at all. “Light, as here contrasted with darkness, |means ethical perfection. It de- scribes the absolute purity and holi- ;ness of God as he has been revealed jin Christ.” (A. S. Peake).
It is not possible to live in sin and enjoy the fellowship of God, John next declares. ‘‘Walk’’ here in verse six is a familiar figure of speech for | one’s customary conduct. Not ‘‘do- ing the truth” means not living in harmony with the demands of truth: “The life as well as the statements of the lips is false.”
“A life in moral darkness can no more have communion with God, | than a life in a coal-pit can have! communion with the sun.” (A. Plummer).
What Soldiers Eat
According To A Report From Bri- | tain They Eat More And Drink
To-day's soldiers don’t like beer. | They prefer sweet things of all | kinds. And they don’t care much for | community singing. They would | rather read. |
They're not at all like the men of | 1914, according to a survey of con- ditions in the camps, conducted by | the British military, naval and air | forces canteens departments, | Last war 98 per cent. of the total |sales at the army canteens was for beer. To-day, only five per cent. of the turnover in the canteens is in beer.
In the World War, soldiers liked tasty bits—to-day they prefer sweet cake, cream buns, chocolates.
Indian soldiers have the sweetest tooth of all. | The Allied troops first among their Twenty-five different supplied. | Canadians like hot dogs, Ameri-| jcan coffee and cheese croquettes.
Sailors like sweets, too. And the |men of the Royal Navy ask for so much lime juice and soda _ that special soda fountains are being in- | stalled on some warships.
According to Dr. J. P. S. Cathcart, a noted neuropsychiatrist, Canada’s | fighting men of 1940 drink less than | the soldiers of 1914-18 but they eat more, It seems that they have con-| tracted a disease known as “the. snack habit,” and the amount of} | chocolate doughnuts and pea-| nuts they make away with is posi- tively amazing. In addition to pos- | | 8essing enormous appetites for sweets the fellows have a remarkable capacity for “guzzling” soft drinks between meals. The doctor says that often when a man is sick the cause of the trouble can be traced back to the canteen, and from what he’s | been eating “you'd think he was a) small boy with a dollar at the cir- | | cus,” |
“Snacking,” while it seems to be a very infectious disease, does not | appear to destroy the men’s appe-| tites at meal times.

TOPICS of
VITAL INTEREST
HEALTH OF CANADA
“The health of Canada’s manhood is such an important factor in our war effort, it may be the determin- ing factor whether we win or lose,” declared Dr. James J. McCann, of Ottawa, chairman of the Parlia- mentary Health Committee, speak- ing recently to an audience of wo- men in Toronto.
To win, Dr. McCann declared, we must be strong, morally, mentally and physically. ‘It is not enough to have the will to win nor to be financially strong, or to have all the instruments of war, unless we have men and women in good health to work on the home front.”
Why were 12,000 men who offered their services to their country re- jected because they were physically unfit, Dr. McCann asked. ‘Probably with old heart or ‘kidney lesions, the result of diphtheria or scarlet fever or measles, or ocular defects or stomach ulcers that either were pre- ventable or could have been cured had early treatment been available.”
Dr. McCann urged that every Canadian soldier be immediately toxoided against diptheria. As for industrial workers on the home front, he urged that their hours of work be not too long, their working conditions should be good, and their nutrition up to standard.
Canada has 50,000 idle workers on the industrial front every day of the year through sickness, he went on. Instead of 50,000 health workers in Canada there ought to be half a mil-
| lion of them, Dr. McCann declared.
In conclusion Dr. McCann advo- cated a national health crusade, subsidizing of full-time health ser- vices, medical care of the under- privileged, federal grants to aid provinces, and larger grants to vol- untary bodies engaged in health work.
His Legal Opinion
What One Lawyer Thought Charge Made By Associate E. E. Edgarrtells this story in the Chicago Daily News: When Senator Roscoe Conkling was a young lawyer, he once defended a man who was charged with committing arson. Conkling worked very hard on the case, but lost after a bitter fight. When he tried to collect his fee, the man refused to pay, claiming that it was exorbitant. . “That man provokes me,” Conk- ling told a fellow attorney. “I never had a client who questioned I spent a lot of time on him, He was convicted, yes, but I worked hard for him. I fought his case through the lower courts, appealed the decision, and even took it to the Supreme Court, where he was finally given ten years. And just because I charge $3,000 for my services, he grumbles. Now I ask you, was that too high a fee for such a case?” “Well,” said his associate, “there is no doubt that you did a great deal of work, and I don’t think $3,000 an
of
| excessive fee, but it is my considered
opinion that he could have been con- victed for less money.”
Some folks wonder why they don’t get on, when all they’re trying to do is get by.

ARE PLANNING TO SEND QUICK AlD TO ~ BOLSTER RUSSIA
London.—Britain and the United States are working at top speed to offset Britain’s inability to help Russia by. attacking Germany in the west, despatches from London and Washington reveal.
The plan is to pour military ald other supplies into Russia and !to do| it fast. Aside from Russia's urgent immediate needs, the plan looks for- ward to Russia's future struggle. It is based on the premise that even if Leningrad, Moscow and the remain- der of the Ukraine fall, Russia will continue to fight into next year. It does not concede that they will fall, | however, and the supplies how .en| route ‘or ready for shipment, it is) hoped, will aid the defence of those threatened centres.
The transportation problem is the most difficult, and it is being attack- | ed with energy. The shortest supply routes are through Iran in the south | and Archangel in the north. Wash- ington has decided to abandon the| long trans-Pacific route through Vladivostok and Siberia as far as United States shipments are con-
cerned. Archangel will be used in-| stead. Archangel is normally ice-bound |
by the end of October but ice break- | ers can certainly keep it open until | mid-January and perhaps through the winter. The port is connected by rail with Moscow, 550 miles away. At Vologda it connects with the Trans-Siberian westward to Lenin- grad and eastward to the area he- yond Moscow,:-should the Russians have to retreat from there.
Even more important than Arch- angel is the Iran route. Britain and the United States have agreed to col- laborate in increasing the capacity of the railroad across Iran and to furnish great quantities of rolling
stock. Technical missions will be sent to Iran and Egypt by the United States to strengthen this
route, as well as being sent to Rus- sia.
Supplies for Russia via Iran come by sea to Bandhur Shapur on the Persian gulf. From there the railroad runs 866 miles to Bandar Shah at the southeastern extrem'ty of the Caspian sea, Thence the sup- plies are ferried 500 miles across the Caspian to Baku, the oil port in the Russian Caucasus, From Baku rail communications are good into Rus- sia proper.
This route would be absolutely vital if the Germans get far enough east to open up a Caucasian front. If for any reason Baku is cut off from the remainder of Russia, sup-' plies can be shipped 800 miles over the Caspian to Asfrakhan, on the north shore of the sea.
The Iranian route has been in use for some time, and heavy shipments have been cleared into Russia. For aerial supplies, it is supplemented by the South Atlantic ferry route to Africa.
It was revealed in London that locomotives and railway carriages already are being delivered by Bri- tain to Russia. The United States has been asked to provide 200 loco- motives and 4,500 freight cars, mostly for use in Iran.
Supply Of Eggs
A Mild Winter On Prairies Would Increase Production Ottawa,.-A__ mild winter prairies will mean a great deal in facilitating the supply of Canadian eggs to the United Kingdom, agri- culture department officials said.
Initial steps to increase the supply of eggs for export have worked out well, officials said. Their reports in- dicated that many poultry owners increased flocks last spring and that the young birds will be laying in December, with the prospect that a surplus of eggs will be available for shipment.
“An element of uncertainty is the | weather in the prairie provinces dur- ing the winter months,” an official | said, “If the winter is mild, the in-| crease in egg production should be, Substantial; if it is severe, the gain | in output will be less than we, hoped.” |

Canadian Fighter Pilots In England Anxious To See Action
Somewhere in England. — Willing to serve anywhere from Russia to the Middle East, Canadian fighter pilots and bomber crews recently arrived from the Dominion are hav- ing their last real holiday before go- ing on operations,
Scores of these young Canadians, trained under the British Common- wealth air training plan, are at the personal reception centre in an Eng- lish coastal town where airmen from overseas wait for their posting orders.
For most, the delay is only a few weeks, but for some it is more than a month, and despite the attractions the town offers, fine billets in hotels, sea bathing from a sandy beach, and the absence of drills, all will be happy when the life of loafing ends | and word comes to proceed to a station.
“I've had enough waiting already,” said Sgt. Pilot Eric Macintosh of Port Morien, N.S., less than a week after he arrived from Canada. ‘I came over here to fly and the sooner T can take a Spitfire or Hurricane in- to the air the better I'll like it.”
Macintosh expected to get into action three months ago, but an at-| tack of appendicitis last July sent him to hospital a few hours after he received his draft to come overseas. Now that he is here he wants to make up for lost time.
Most of the Canadians will be posted to Royal Canadian Air Force, squadrons in Great Britain, but if they were asked to go to Russia or the Middle East they would jump at the chance.
Said Sgt. Herb Butcher of Na- panee, Ont.: “Now that we’ve come | see as| much of the world as we can before we go home.”
The pilots have their own ideas about the type of planes they want to fly but for the most part they'll be satisfied with any machine pro- vided it takes them off the ground.
PO. Harry Bennett of Vancouver was so anxious to fly that although he had worked his way up to the rank of flight lieutenant on the ad- min’strative side of the R.C.A.F., he resigned his commission where he couldn't get into thé air and re-en- listed as an aircraftman second class.
He started from the bottom again and the proudest day of his life was when he received his wings, qualify- ing him to be a pilot.
Sgts. George Jewell of Montreal and Jim McGrath of Edmonton, both wireless air gunners, want to get on big bombers, while Sgt. Jerry Mc- Phee of Vancouver, an air gunner, has applied for posting to a night| fighter squadron.
“And I don't eat carrots,” he said. |
Study Taxation
Increase In Sales Tax Is| Now Likely | Ottawa. — The government's new | price and wage stabilization policy} may have important influences on| the trend of future taxes, it was suggested in government circles,
If prices and wages are to be held at present levels the tax increases regarded as certain to come in the next budget may be so designed as not to influence prices and costs of production to a greater degree than necessary, it was said,
The principal tax which contri- | butes directly to the cost of goods is the eight per cent. sales tax. In dis- | cussion on the last budget in the | House of Commons Finance Minister | Ilsley indicated the government had considered increasing that tax to 10 per cent, but decided against the in- | crease because it did not wish to) encourage an upward price mover | ment,
With governmental policy now set even more firmly against price in- creases it is considered“unlikely that any increase in the sales tax will be proposed for next year.
To conform with the general aim of stabilizing prices at present levels the taxing experts may be expected to recommend increase in direct national tax, the income tax and the corpor-

BRITAIN HAS BECOME A MECCA
FOR REFUGEES
Press
London.—Britain, one of freedom’s last old world sanctuaries, has be- come a mecca for people of European countries suffering under the weight of the Nazi boot.
Ina constantly increasing stream, |refugees from Holland, Norway, France and Belgium are finding their way to the shores of Britain. Bri- tons, caught in occupied countries, | have also made good their escape.
French refugees bring with them stories of increasing unrest in | France. The return to London from
Gaulle, leader of the Free French | forces, was the signal for a burst of | appreciation of the true France from
British people who have recently reached home.
| Correspondence received at the | headquarters of Free France, par- ticularly from refugee English wo- men, tells of constant kindness to
stranded Britons, hatred of the com- mon foe, disgust with the devious ways of Vichy, and almost universal belief in a British victory.
A Manchester girl who escaped from Brussels to France, only to be hounded far south by the invaders, described how at a frontier station, two old women pressed a gold cross
of Lorraine, the emblem of Free France, into her hand, murmuring, “Tell Gen. de Gaulle, tell England,
we are counting on them,”
Stories of refugee escapes are be- coming legion.
One of the most dramatic was told by a 70-year-old English woman, the wife of a Belgian business man, who reached England after a 70-hour voyage from the Belgian coast in an eight-foot rowboat with an outboard
motor. She was accompanied by her 20-year-old son and three Belgian men,

The Right Names
Soldier, Sallor And Marine Describes The Three Services
There are no better words in the English language than “soldier,” “sailor,” and “marine.” To call a
soldier, sailor or marine anything else is an affront to good English,
;even if the man described has no
objection. Lets shelve these syn- thetic prissy words like ‘“selectee” and “serviceman.” The latter, by the way, has a faint trace of snob- bery.
There's another that might as
| well be laid away. To men mindful
of military history, the word “con- script” is little short of glorious. The armies of the ever-victorious Roman republic were made up of conscripts, who whipped all the pro- The same was true of the conscripts of the French Revolution. The Ameri- can who uses the term in reproach lays himself open to suspicion of} descent from a man who hired a sub-
; stitute in 1863.
But after all, “soldier,” “sailor” and “marine” are all the words we need, and that they are the right words is proved by the fact that sol-
diers call themselves soldiers, sail- ors call themselves. sailors, and marines—well, they shout it.—Chi-

Sombre Picture
The Food Shortage In Unhappy Greece Becoming Worse Daily (By a Special Correspondent)
Sympathetic neutral witnesses who left Athens a month ago give a sombre picture of the Greek capital. The vivacious, elegant city wears how a lugubrious aspect. One sees Athens in a present condition of gloom, dilapidation and depression.
As soon as the Germans arrived they enforced the evacuation of all the wounded soldiers from the Athenian hospitals in order to make room for their own wounded. The streets of Athens are now full of wounded Greek soldiers gtill band- aged and often begging bread.
The horrors of the German occu- pation are aggravated by the humil- jation felt by the Greeks in seeing defeated Italians replacing German troops. The former show an arro- gant attitude, although they en-
deavour to show themselves more humane than the latter. Looting by the Germans, either
openly or by means of spurious marks, was so complete that it left very little for their successors. More- over, the Gestapo remains the su- preme master and its exertions are the same as in every other German- occupied country. Some _ well-edu- cated and cultured Greeks felt the German tyranny so cruelly that they have committed suicide.
The food situation becomes daily worse and worse. Communications remain in their chaotic condition. The bridge across the Corinth Canal, destroyed during the campaign, has now been replaced by a temporary wooden bridge, which, however, is such a weak structure that only the smallest locomotives with one or two carriages may pass across it.
Railway communications beyond the pass of Thermopylae continue to be disrupted. Thus, when the In- ternational Red Cross decided to send supplies of concentrated food extracts for the use of the wounded of all armies in Greece, they were forced to send them by air mail, as they were unable to do so by rail.
The port of Piraeus and the dis- tricts around have been heavily dam- aged by the explosion in the middle of the port of a ship loaded with munitions. It was caused by a Ger- man raid last April. There was no direct hit on the ship, but on some barges loaded with oil, from which the resulting fire spread to the munitions ship.
When the Germans occupied Ath-
ens they compelled many Greek shipowners living in Greece, al- though their ships were trading
abroad, to telegraph their agents in America and elsewhere to withdraw their ships from the Allied service. These telegrams were communicated to the Greek agents in New York by the German Consul General, through whom they were addressed to them. The Greek agents, of course, re- fused to comply with these "evidently enemy-dictated orders. The Gestapo thereupon turned its wrath against the shipowners in Athens and com- pelled them to work in Piraeus to clean up the wreckage, demolish wrecked buildings, and sweep up the streets. Such men, old or young, not used to this work, were all in- cluded in this cruel, typically Ger-
man order, which is still being applied by the Italians.
Panzer Divisions The Name Used For German
Armored Divisions
Two requests about Panzer reach me from different quarters. One is to say what it means; the other is to get the term dropped in favor of good plain English. Well, Panzer means armor, and since the German armored divisions have been more conspicuous than any other down to the invasion of Russia, we hav@ adopted the German name for the: much as we habitually speak of thd Luftwaffe instead of the German Air
Force or U-boats (Untersee- boote) instead of German = sub- marines.
As to getting the word dropped, that seems to me a matter of indif- ference, If Panzer divisions are un- derstood to be German armored divisions—not Russian or British, or any other—-the term has its utility. It enables a two-word description to be used instead of a _ three-word, which is all to the good.—London Spectator.
Raised Grain Crop The first agricultural process car- ried on by Europeans in what is now Canada probably was the raising of
@ grain crop at Port Royal, N.S., in 1605.

CHAPTER XXX.
The tiny hands on Devona’s own watch pointed at five minutes past 2 when Macias finally turned off the main gboulevard into a quieter street, swung into a curving drive. The Louis Quatorze! Devona recog- nized it instantly.
Macias still didn’t speak “as the velvet-lined elevator carried them up to his elaborate suite. Not until he'd closed the door, dismissed the! houseboy, did he turn toward her, fix her with the black, smiling cruelty of those dark eyes.
Calmly he tapped the white shoe box he carried under his arm. “I'll put this away first, Dona, my darl- ing. Nasty stuff—Heroin. I don't think you'd like it.”
Mute, she watched him cross the long drawing room to the blotchy oil painting of the Monterey pines. Touching the heavy gold frame at the corner, he slid back the picture, revealing the efficient little wall safe.
Shuddering, she turned her back to the Monterey pines.
“Cold?” Macias’ voice taunted her. “T'll mix a drink.”
“No, thanks.”
“Come, sit down.” He indicated one of the matching chairs flanking | the huge fireplace. ‘‘We have lots to chat about, you and I.”
Obediently, she dropped into the thick-cushioned chair, watched him take a cork coaster from a _ small drawer in the mahagony lamp table, set the sweating high-ball glass on it meticulously.
Grimly, she notched her chin high, | met his eyes steadily. |
“Now, my darling, suppose you tell me why you so thoughtfully went on that little errand for me?”
Alert, Devona played for time. “Just—for fun.”
“Pretty dangerous it 7?
She shrugged, “Maybe.”
“Of course it had nothing to do | with young Brasher?” he said,! smiling as he drained his glass,
“It would have—if I’d_ gotten! away with it,” she admitted cooly, amazed that the terror inside didn’t show in her voice. |
He nodded. “Yés, I thought so. | Too bad you didn’t get away with! it, too. Young Brasher is going to need help.” |
Devona felt her cheeks blanch but | she kept her voice steady. “Really? | You've been so — co-operative — al- ready, too, haven't you?”
“Yes. Until just recently, I've been able to give Brasher advice that has kept him out of danger very nicely.” He smiled wickedly. | “But now—since he has been disre- garding my suggestions———” He let that drift off into a sinister little silence,

By marshaling every shred of self-control of which she was cap- able, she didn’t let a flicker of emo- tion show in her face. “Nothing. Mr. Brasher didn't even know I sus- pected anything.”
“No? Really, now, Dona.” He smiled, poured himself another brandy. “You don’t expect me to be- lieve that.’
“Why not? It happens to be the
truth.”
He just looked at her over the rim of his glass. “You are a beau- tiful little liar, Dona. But———” he shrugged, “—we'll change all that. How long since you have suspected that I managed this little—enter- prise?”
“Oh—I don’t remember.”
“And——"” the laugh was gone now, “how many people’ have you told?” s
“None. I wanted to figure things out for myself.”
“I see’—skeptically. “You're a cool little customer. Have you fig- ured out what will happen now?”
“No " aowry little smile. think I can leave that up to you.”
He scowled. “What, exactly, does Dale Brasher mean to you?”
“Nothing,” and kept her fingers crossed.
“How would you like to play the game my way?”
She toyed idly with the strap of her handbag and stalled, ‘“Mean- ing: iad
“Meaning that you'll have a chance to make yourself some nice change. I could use a lovely woman very nicely—a lovely woman with daring and brain and—the right attitude.”

She smiled. “Thanks, mister, for the compliments.” “Besides——” deliberately, he fill-
ed his glass again, “it wouldn’t be healthy for you to go on meddling in matters you don’t understand.” “Maybe if you—explained——” Slowly he put down his glass, leaned toward her. “A smart girl like you ought to be able to guess.” Macias came to stand just behind her, the sound of his heavy breath- ing, the touch of his hands on her arms made her shudder involuntar- ily as he turned her toward him.
“Going to be sensible, sweetheart, and listen to reason?” he asked, his eyes already sure of her. “I can make things pretty sweet for you— if you'll just play along with me.”
Trying not to let her repulsion show, she cocked an eyebrow im- pudently. “And—if I don’t——”
His fingers tightened on her arm. “You will. You like this place. You like nice things. You'll like it here much better than the place — I’d have to send you. Just to keep you out of danger, of course.” ;
Of course. Devona’s heart ham- mered like a piston. “I see.”
Behind them a closet door opened suddenly and some one laughed—a shrill, hysterical sound that was mirthless and horrible.
Startled, Macias released Devona. They both turned to face a_ slim, fair-haired girl—and the muzzle of a grim little pistol.
It was the girl who'd come to the El Mexicano that evening, Devona recognized now. Freda Camp. One of Macias’ castoffs.
“Freda! How the hell did you get in here?” Macias took one step to- ward her, but she waved him back,
“Just stay where you are, dearie. I want to get a good look at you be- fore I send you where you belong.”
“Listen, Freda. You can't pull this stuff. You--—’ Macias blus- tered.
“Can't I? And why not? You
need killing, you know.”
“Maybe I do—-——” calmly enough, “But what good will that do you? The cops will catch up with you and at
“Oh, no they won't, dearie. Be- cause this time I'm going right along with you-—-via the next bullet. The cops and the newsboys will have a lot of fun with the story.” She smiled calmly at Devona. “Maybe they'll even think this dame did the job. No witnesses. Motive—jeal- ousy. Make good headlines, any- way, won't we, Jose?”
Devona felt him stiffen, calmly for a cigarette.
“Well—" he began, calmly, but his eyes never left the girl's face. “—go ahead. If you've mind——"
He struck a match, touched the flickering flame to the cigarette, and then, as if by accident, flicked it directly toward the girl's face.
Only a moment's distraction, but enough. A moment leaped to her side, wrenched the little pistol from her hand,

“Damn you! Damn you! Give me that!” she cried hysterically, and then burst into tears.

Devona heard her own breath re-
lease itself in a little scream as she sagged into a chair.
“Oh, no.” Macias pointed little gun at her now. “Just. sit where you are until you get back your senses—if you have any. You blundering little fool.”
His swarthy face flushed purple with anger now. Devona clung des- perately to the chair arms, terribly sorry, in the midst of her own ter- rors, for the pitiful creature hud- dled in the corner of the big sofa. Macias was furious. Part of it prob- ably the reaction of his own startled fright. Part of it, his wrath at be- ing taken by surprise. Ego-ridden, he’d want to run all of the show. The girl had succeeded in surprising
him, holding him—even for a min-|
ute—at her mercy. She'd pay for that.
“I've told you to beat it,” he raged. “I even gave you the dough
to beat it out of the state. didn’t you go?”
“I—I couldn’t. I wanted to——”
“The hell with what you wanted. Think I’m going to have you hang- ing around here when every cop in town has you spotted for a hop- head?
“And whose fault is that, I'd like to know?” she screamed, with what was, apparently, her last shred of defiance. In another moment she'd buried her face in her arms, lay quivering with sobs.
Macias scowled at her a moment. Then he picked up a telephone; gave a number curtly.
“Hello! Speak to Wong.” |
A moment's silence. Then: “Wong? Got a job for you. Get here as quick as you can.”
Replacing the receiver, he turned to the trembling girl on the sofa. “Wong’ll see that you get out of town,” he said, with an abrupt laugh. “And that you don’t come back, either. Maybe next time you'll obey orders.” |
Slowly horror poured awful real- ization into Devona’s numbed brain.

Canadian Women Invited To Lend Services For War
Canadian women are now being
Invited to fight Hitler with one of
their favorite weapons —a good meal, An urgent call has gone out/ from the Department of National
War Services for 300 cooks.
Applieants don't need to be fancy culinary experts or dietitians in order to qualify. The main require- ment is that they know the simple recipes for the “home-cooked” style of food so dear to the heart of the airman and soldier boy.
If the volunteer is accepted, she will be issued a smart uniform and enlisted in the Canadian Women's Auxiliary Air Force or the Canadian Women's Army Corps.
ities have promised there will be no delay in handling applications. Suc-
once to report for medical examina- tion. Rate of pay is ninety cents a day, with uniform, medical services and board supplied.
Applications are available at all R.C.A.F. recruiting centres, at Mill- tary District headquarters and at the offices of National War Services divisional registrars throughout Can- , ada,
Successful volunteers for the Cana- |dian Women's Auxiliary Air Force will be sent for three weeks of train- jing at Havergal College, followed by la special six weeks cooking course
ed to R.C.A.F. stations.
Chances for promotion in the | cooking branch will be as good as in |any other trade of the service aux- | illaries. Every woman who steps forward will be playing an import- ant role. |ing to keep Canada's soldiers and
food for them, but she will also be releasing a man for service behind a gun.

Cacti terrariums are specially fascinating. With the prickly, |quaintly-shaped plants you can com- |bine yellow-flowered saxifraga and |the sempervivum “hen and chick- }ens,"’ whose leaves grow in such fat |little rosettes.
Best of all your glass garden thrives practically uncared for. All |you do is start it—using, for cacti, |first a layer of cinders and then sharp sand mixed with some garden loam. Seeds or cuttings will grow or you may put in the tiny plants you can buy cheaply at stores.
Covered, the terrarium provides |its own moisture, sé that a weekly spoonful of water is more than enough.
The container? You can make a large one with panes of glass and jelectrician’s tape. Or you can use |any clear glass container. In a candy jar African violet and fern }are lovely; in a fish bowl, jolly red- berried evergreens.
Our 32-page booklet shows in de- tail how to make glass gardens for woodland and cultivated plants, orchids, gardenias. Also tells how {to make bottle and landscaped ter- |rariums, clever dish gardens. Has directions for kitchen-window herb garden,
