"Is this not the explanation of the undeastanding that ‘ exists toâ€"day beâ€" tween . the people of Canada and the United States? Americans fird it somewhat difficult to understand the dual role of Canada as a nation and as a part of the British Empire and it is possible that Canadians find the dual role difficult at times but ‘the obvious advantages of that role can be mads apparent without doubt. Without dwel!lâ€" ing upon these advantages, one thing that becomes evident. is the important position which Canada may and can hold as interpreter and connecting link between the British Empire ang the United States. To an Americanâ€"born British subject living as a Canadian, this situation seems most fortunate. It should serve to strengthen the bonds that already exist through blood and inheritance. Best Customers of One Ansether "We all know that each country is the best customer of the other and of respensibility ang government, but in the name of common sense, wherein should we continue to glorify curselves for ‘keeping an unarmed peace when there is not and never should be any good reason for having aught else?" Two Similar Systems "Observance of treaties depends upon the point of view; What in the way of viewpoint has made the peace between Canada and th United States," ‘he asked. "Toâ€"day there is a remarkaole existence of two governmental systems which have s@ ®#ich in common that one wonders at their s*eparate entities; The same aims and purposes are snared by these two systems of ‘government which ars in the main similar in govâ€" ernmental form also. These two systems are the Unitedâ€"States of America and that part of the British Empire which consists of the United Kingdom and the Dominions. In the Dominion of Canada, the governmental form is alâ€" most a republican form of government in theveyes of Americans in spite of the fact that it copies the form of govâ€" ernment of the United Kingdom. "The prosperity of Canada and of the United States must always be linkeg together and the bonds of raâ€" cial heritage, language, religion, literaâ€" ture, morality, law and order, similar aims and puposes and similarity in democratic ideals of government can have added to th:m mutual respect and mutual That was the theme of an address Uelivered on Monday by Harry Darling before the Kiwanis Club. As a citizen of the United States who has been for many years a respected resident of Canada, Mr. Darling is well qualified to speak on such a subject. It was United Statesâ€"Canada day at the cluo but the speaker broke loose from the usual trend of thought exâ€" presseq by speakers on occasions like that., "Why then," he said in concludâ€" ing a logical plea for greater unity beâ€" tween the North American neighbours,l "should we bore the world by bragging to high heaven about our common un~â€" fortified boundary on such occasions as toâ€"day?

Happily these criticisms ‘seldom become acrimonious. Interâ€"State Trade Freed "In the early years of the States, there were trade regulations between them that partisans fought hard to maintain, yet when they were abolish*d the general prosperity was apparent. There are still differences of sorts in the ‘intsrests of various sections there, just as there are between certain secâ€" tions in Canada. So many problems are identical in both countries. It seems to me just as restrictions in trads and inâ€" tercourse between states became cbsoâ€" Jlete and never existed between proâ€" vinces, so in time we may expect less restrictions between nations and that the way may be leq ioy Canada and the jUnited States if and when it can be ghown to be to the mutual advantage of <both peoples. Friendship has paved the way for this. should not both countries enjoy and use whatever the other can and will give it? "Some Canadians are irritated by the floodâ€" of publications and radio that swesps in from the South. And yet there:â€" is nothing of propaganda in it to annoy. It seems to me that all that can be done about it is to produce magazines and radio programmes good enough to send down south, along with the hockey players whom we make our the Dominion grew with the mother ccuntry away from certain pracâ€" tices by a gradual process. If both peoâ€" ples understood each other‘s political ernmental practices. Yet both were fcunded on British form, to which the Canadian form conforms more clostly. A simple explanation of the difference is in the statement that when the Roâ€" public was founded, fear of following the British form of government at that time induced the new republicans to go to certain extremes to preserve what they called personal liberty, whereas "Perhaps because I have spent more of my mature years in Canada than in the United States, I have heard more criticism of the United States from Canadians than of Canada from Ameriâ€" cans. Much of the criticism is deserved but a considerable amount is unjust. Few Americans understand Canadian political structure and many Cansadians a6 fot understand the American fovâ€" get into fisticulfs over the calling of names, reférence to ancestry, ang such, so it seems with nations. With closer mental and cultural accord, it will beâ€" come easier to arbitrate material disâ€" "It is not material thingst that lead to dispute. Just as individuals seldom come to blows over material things but refer disputes regarding them to proâ€" per tribunals for settlement, but will that in spite of differences in populaâ€" tion, to date prosperity in one has zeen coincident with prosperity in the other. Poolish legislation on either side of the border has a tendency to injure both countries rather than help one to the disadvantage of the other.

Bince that time Mr. Elliott has galâ€" lantly carried on his fight with the reâ€" sult that very few postmasters have resigned or been dismissed and there is a greater sense of security in the postal service toâ€"day than has ever been known before. Under these cirecumstances it was! only natural that a change in Govemâ€"‘ ment again caused much perturbation! amongst the post offices in Eastern. Canada particularly and the Dominion Secretary of the Canadilan Post;rnasters’i Association, Mr. Charies D. Gflmth.., accompanied by Col. E. J. White, postâ€"| master at Bathurst, N.B., interviewed the Hon. J. C. Elliott very shortly after his appointment to the Cabinet. They were pleasantly surprised to find a new type of man holding the office of | Postmasterâ€"General who had already refused to dismiss smaill country postâ€" masters wholesale without any charges being laid against them, or without the accused being given an opportunity of defending themselves against any poliâ€"| tical charges which might have been made 3y thoss desirous of chtaining their positions.

The postal service is, without doubt, the greatest business in Canada enféring intimately into the lives of every citizen and the disrupting effect on this great business machine can readily be understood when over eight hundred postmasters lost their pesitions after each change of Government and were replaced by inexperienced men.
