Training schools, although for rnonths past there has been a sur- plus of pilots for whom no planes are available. Canada has made a start on the assernbly ai planes, mastiy manu- factured eisewhere. Same ai the simpler body types are being mnade in Canada in ever increas- Lng numbers. They tell us that in 16 months they actually hope ta inake Uic iirst. made in Canada airplane engine. They tell us that engines cannot possibly be made sooner because there is a "bottle- neck" i the machine tool indus- try. What this means in simple language is that the factonies which praduce "machine tools," otherwise autamatic machinery which takes hold ai variaus kinds ai metal and shapes it inta some- thing diii erent than it was ta begin with. Some ai these ma- chines are sa simple that tiiey do littie more than turn out millions ai simple things like pins. Others are so ciabarate that what goes i at anc end as a strip ai metai cornes out at thc other as alxnast Uic whole body of a car. Each year Uic machie tool in- dustry makes Uic enormous vol- umne ai new toals rc<jUlred for4 the production ai next year's cars. Right now, in North.America, the machine tool industry is soi oc- cupicd with getting rcady ta do its stuff for Uic 1942 model Fards, Chevs and what nots that it is unable ta fi more than a frac- tion ai the available orders for war materiaisofai ilkinds. The reason, ai course, is that no gavernment, either i the United States or Canada, has dreamed ai exercisig Uic powers which bath have under the law. Bath have pnoceeded on Uic as- sumptian that private business was sancrasanct. That, imY judgnient, was precisely the at- titude ai the Chamberlain Gbv- crnment in the iirst manths ai thc war when ail manufacturers were permnitted ta regard thc war as ai secondary importance ta the pro- fitable canduct ai private busi- ness. My point is that we will not even begin ta fight Uic war i carnest until we say, and mean it, that every iactony and evcry iarm and cvery wonker must be available FIRST ion the produc- tion ai those things we MUST have. We do nat need new modeis ai new cars for the duration of, the war. Private business wMi have ta be ready ta do what the small boys are asked ta do on hallow- c'en - give up their firecracicers fan the duratian. A good man happy is a camman good.--Chapman.

This littlc poein 1 shows the mian. Ta me these À verses are well worth pssing on and 'arn sure many wiil enjaY them."l The dlipping reads: 3 Burns-1759-1796 c The iollawing unpublished poemt by Robent Burns was recently dis- covered ini the possession ai a Scottish gentleman in Australie. Bures had been invited by a nableman ai Scotland ta a gathen- ing ai his friends. On f indingj that he was not ta be a party et dinner with Uic guests, but was expected ta jain the servants et their table, addnessed the fallow- ing ta his hast: My lord, I would not; fill your chair, Thaugh you be proudest; noble's heir, I came this night ta join your ieast As equal ta Uic best et leaut, 'Tis truc that cash with me lu scant, And tities, tries that I want. The King hath neyer made me keei j,>Ta stamp my manhood with bis scal, But what ai that! the King on high, Who taak less pains with you than I, Has'filled my basorn and mY nmmd With something betten in its kind Than your braad acres, something which, I cannot well translate in speech, But by its impulse I cen know, 'Tis deeds, flot birth, that make 1 men low. Yaun rank my lord is but a loan, But mine thank heaven i ll iMy awn. A peasant 'tis my pride ta be, Look round and round yaun bail, and sec Who boasts a highcr pedigr? I was flot; fit it seêms ta din, With these fox hunting heroes fine, But only came ta bandy jcsts, Among yaur londship's hopeful guests. There must be here some sad mnis- take, I would flot play for such a stalce, Be a buffoon for drink and meat, And a paon carl's tax-paid seat, No, die my beart, ance such a shamne, Descends on Robent Bures' came.

It is a good time ta take a broad look at the whole wanld situation. Ail leaders havef been waiting cansciously or un- conscîausly, for the results ai the United States election bei are making their next moves. The shape ai things ta corne may therefore be expected ta take iorr n j the near future. I used ta think that it was oniy a question ai time until the Unit- ed States enterai this war on aur side, but I have changed rny mind. Aiter the 100 per cent specific pledges which bath U. S. leaders gave ta their people it secrns ta me inconceivable Uiat Amenican troaps will ever be sent ta Europe ta fight against Hitler's legions. Of course, if United States were ta be forced inta the war by sorne act ai flagrant aggressian by the dictatars, they would no doubt iight Uic Uiing ight Uirough wherevcr the battlc f ields were ta be, iound. But I believe their co-apenation with ns actually will te limited ta the forma already esignated- thet is, they will gieus al Uic help Uiey can in Ua4.ay ai war matenlls, thcy Iwill incrcasingly co-operate with us on the sea, but Uicy will flot actuaily enter Uic wàr as a bel- ligeret unless their interesta are rnuch mare directly Uineatened than Uiey have been ta date. The above palicy might be maintained in substance even if later on in the war the United States werc ta agrce ta give us a certain arnount ai iighting forces fon actual warfarc in the air on on the scas. A situation might easly arise - for instance et Dakar- on the west coast ai Africa - wbere active participation by the United States Air Force or Fleet wauid actualiy decide the course ai history. Incidentaily, the passing ai Dakar inta hands activcly hostile ta the United States would largciynecutrelize the effctivcness ai the Western hemisphere miltary alliance. But by and large we can expeet no participation by American sol- diens on the battlcfields ai Europe and Uic sooner we make up aur minda ta thet fact, the better off we will be in the long rue. PLANES OR CARS FOR 1942? Wc have a cicar cut and almoat appallng exemple ai aur lack ai a sufiiciently aggressivc war par- ticipation palicy in the.case ai the motor car industry. It is no longer any secret that rccruiting for the C.A.S.F. bas been called off beceuse there lu a lack ai key techeical speciaiists for arrny purpases. We cannot train and equip adequatcly the men we already have in uniform, signed up ta fight Hitler. At the same tirne there is an acute short- age ai skiled labor le the more techeical armement factonies se that the goverement has eiready been iorced ta thrcatcn punish- ment on business men who lune workers frorn the plants ai other businessmen. At the same time the iighting men are already starting ta pour out from Uic Air 1m fol1i- strengoth,- pure.. thanks te the ai rmtight wrapperd il - -- È.---
