the visit of Canadas champion plowmen to the British Isles Belgium Denmark and the Netherlands London England By now you have probably heard that Herb the champion Can adian horse plowman was the winner of two trophies at the West of England Championship Plowing Match in Cornwall They were for the best overseas com petitor and the best land in his class and naturally we are thrilled about it It was a good day for plowing j for years some said it was the best match Brussels and Antwerp in the art of plowing But unlike j sels two great Belgium cities Canadian plowmen they used 1 that are so well known to the every conceivable device to dress lads who served here in the two up their work After the match world wars j we inspected the field and it was We visited the Belgium a beautiful

LOS ANGELES I if MM ilii w dealing with the history of Corn wall In addition we received plaques bearing Cornwalls They will always mind of an occasion when we were entertained royally and treated lavishly I But the variety of plowing methods that I observed at the Cornwall match only confirmed my opinion that what we need is a set of standard rules for international matches When I was called upon to speak I the adoption of some such rules and as this was reported in the press I may hear from others here who share my ideas Briefly above are the high lights of our visit to the south of England As you have probably gathered from these letters most of which are written about am neither space nor time per mits a detailed account of our travels But try to fill you in since the last letter which if I remember rightly was written in Holland on the day we were leaving for Belgium Visit A em That day drove to of one of the bloodiest engagements of the last war It was here in September that the British First Airborne Divis ion which included many Can adians fought great valor for nearly a week against great odds Only 1800 of these hard- pressed paratroopers managed to fight their way out of the trap But in April of the following year as you know the British forces of the First Canadian Army took Arnhem and then pressed on to the big kill All of that took place about six years ago but there still is extensive shell and bomb dam age to be seen although we were told and could see that a great deal of rebuilding and repair work has taken place since the end of the war While there we visited what to us is a rather unusual business institution It is concerned mainly with structural estimates This firm estimates and prepares bids on contracts for structural undertakings from a house to a huge engineering project In or der to do this they maintain re search and experimental labora tories huge drafting 100ms rec ord libraries and just about ev erything pertaining to engineers estimates It Is the largest firm of its kind in the world private ly owned has been in bus- crop the same and and Later we had dinner in Brussels with The prizes for the

Prospect To sum up our impressions of the continent the thing that stands out is the seeming indif ference of the people to pros pects of another war It would almost appear that generations now living here are so used to the idea of war that its inevit ability is taken for granted To me its like living at the foot of a volcano safe now but for how long no one knows The peoples of Denmark Hol land and Belgium differ from one another in many respects but all of them are alike la their love of their country my personal belief that the only sol ution to the problems of western Europe is union muter one gov ernment but 1 doubt in the light of this nationalism if it can be accomplished in the Immediate future The sad part is that these countries by themselves are comparatively weak and rep resent easy prey for any aggres sor- yet it they united they would be a tower of strength They all have sincere desire to protect themselves but they seem to be helpless under present con ditions At least this Is how it appears to me But enough for now as we must get ready to leave for Northern England then to Fred Mrs Earl Scotland I and son Bruce Newmarket won The next bingo will be held on
