No one could bring the matâ€" ter so brilliantly before the public as could Mr. Pouliot. He could explain with graphic words: that having established the principle that the radio is only for the good little followers of the, sanctified Mr. King, steps should be taken at once| to carry the ruling to its logical outcome and apâ€" ply it to post office and railways. It already apâ€" plies to government purchasing departments, he might add in one of those witty flashes of his. Mr. Pouliot will see in this extension of the Nazi radio idea the only hope for the freedom, the[ security, the happiness and the prosperity of those| | who adore only a little part of a great party. While: this sort of logic may appeal to the mentality of men like Mr. Pouliot, it is more than doubtful 11' it will be accepted by the people of Canada in gen-‘f eral. Already they have made it plain that railâ€" ways and post office facilities are the property of; all the people of Canada and for the use of all, irrespective of party or parts of party. What The is simply to beg the question:â€"Does this apply only to one party? In regard to the cases quoted no honest man pretends that there was any intenâ€" «uon to use the radio for any improper purpose. In a recent issue The Advance pointed out how iniquitous the present conduct of the radio apâ€" peared to be, by transferring the Nazi radio policy to the conduct of the post office. Surely there would be an uproar, if Geo. McCullough, Dr. Shields, Col. Drew and Premier Hepburn were reâ€" fused use of the mails simply because they did not belong to the little party headed by Premier Macâ€" kenzie King. There have been frequent objecâ€" tions in parliament because it was thought that one or other political party made so large use of free privileges of the post office department, but there has never been any suggestion that any party at any time was ever questioned as to the right to use the mails on a paid basis. To make the suggestion that the mails are not open for use, paid or unpaid, for certain improper purposes,| a select few, it surely has developed the true Nazi characteristics. Radioâ€"owned by all the »people, paid for by all the peopléeâ€"in Canada has ssumed such a discrimination in favour of the .ew that it can scarcely escape the brand of The Advance recently has repeated exâ€" «iiples of the sort of thing on which the charge i Nazism is based. All will remember the case 1 Mr. Geo. McCullough, who was refused a priviâ€" that was freely granted to friends of the wininion administration. Another case was that ie altitude to the Sirois report. Mackenzie , iw.uerals were allowed to express their views i uie sirois report on the air but Col. Geo. S. szew was flatly refused that privilege, even uough he were ready to pay for it. In that parâ€" icular case, Canadian Radio left no doubt as to what it meant, as the refusal of paid time to Col.} Drew was sandwiched in between two radio adâ€"| dresses by friends of . the King party on the same report. Another case of the Nazi spirit animating the conduct of radio was the refusal to allow Dr. Shields, ,of Toronto, to purchase time to reply to an attack upon him over the air. One of the more recent illustrations of Nazi radio was the instance of the broadcasting of the Ontario Proâ€" perty Owners‘ annual banquet. In other years this banquet has been regularly given place on the air. This year, however, no such privilege was accorded it. The only apparent reason for the refusal to broadcast the banquet this year was the fact that Premier Hepburn was a guest speaker at the event. There is no exaggeration in describing Canaâ€" dian radio as at present operating as verging on the Nazi type of administration.

PAGE Pour Timmins, Ont., Monday, Feb._24th, 1941 She Horrupine Aduance TWO PHONESâ€"26 and 2020 Published Every Monday and Thursday by GEO,. LAKE, Owner and Publisher Group , To the gloomy logicians, let it be said that all the facts, all the logic, all the sound common sense are on the side of British victory. The British have the resources in men, money, material, supplies to match the world at arms. Above all, the British have the spiritâ€"the spirit of courage, of deterâ€" mination, of energy, of work that makes failure impossible. All this is on the record for all to read. It is not "wishful thinking" to gather toâ€" !gether all the data on record of the strength of Britain and the immeasurably greater strength that may be built up on land and sea and in the air. As a matter of sound reasoning, Britain canâ€" not lose. The record so far proves to the thoughtâ€" ful man or woman that for the gangsters to win the British will have to throw away the victory. Let it be said that this is something the British will not doâ€"will not think of doingâ€"whatever the gloomy gusses think or say. It is true that vicâ€" tory will not come from fine words. But it is worth noting that the ones who are working and striving and fighting are the confident ones, the cheerful ones, the ones who know. It would be wrong to waste time boasting or building false hopes. But it is even more mischievous and viciâ€" ous to waste precious time and strength painting gloomy pictures that are a travesty on the truth. In recent weeks there appears to be some tendâ€" ency on the part of some people to return to the gloomy view of the war that many held in the dark days around the time of Dunkirk and the fall of France. In a local restaurant the other night a group of young men drifted from melanâ€" choly talk about the possible length of the war to suggestions that it was not a surety that Britain would win in the end. There is no sense or reason in such ramblings, The facts of the caseâ€"the facts of lifeâ€"are all against them. In the dark days after Dunkirk, there might have been some excuse for gloomy forebodings, though it is well worth while for all in Canada to recall the attitude of the British people at that time. The very time when conditions were at their gloomiest was the time when the British roused to the greatest cheerfulness and assurance. And it wasn‘t a case of "whistling to keep up the courage." It was a case of whistling to make the work go along the speedier. The optimism that counts is the optimâ€" ism that works, that strives, that refuses to beâ€" lieve in anything but victory. "Now Britain is all alone!" was the German taunt. The British reply was, in effect:â€""Yes, we‘re all aloneâ€"the whole four hundred odd millions of us." now pouring into Spain, but not with warlike thought, but rather on a mission ofâ€" rescueâ€"to rescue the people of Spain who are the victims of the disaster of the recent violent storm that visitâ€" that land, leaving in its wake a trail of fire. F P e We CE Cw ho. homeless and destitute people, and illness and misery,. Any people who can picture the Nazis in the role of angels of rescue have such exuberant imaginations that they should be under restraint in an institution. The rescue work record of the Nazis is one that condemns them as the most brutal and unprincipled nation of thugs and i Newspaper despatches say that Nazi troops are |marched into Austria, Czechoslovakia, Poland, |Denmark, Norway, Belgium, Holland, France, to b gangsters that ever. cursed the earth. The Huns: "rescue" these nations, according to the Nazi propaganda, but the bitter facts of the case brand lthis form of "rescue" as the most despicable and degraded form of enslavement and abuse. Some | of the nations that have been overâ€"run may once have believed in the theory of "rescue," but toâ€" day they realize in the bitterest fashion how little of rescue and how much of slavery and oppresâ€" sion has come their way. There may be gullible neutral peoples who imagined there was some possibility of thought of rescue in the minds of the Huns as they journed along their gangster !paths With the record of the past year and a half, however, only the deliberately foolish will place any faith in the thought of German rescue aims. What appears to have happened is that the Huns have taken advantage of the calamity that visited Spain to force upon that country a form of help it did not desire. Dictator Franco apparently was able to stall off the Hitler gangâ€" sters until his country was overtaken by the reâ€" cent disaster. With all the misery faced by his people, he no doubt was forced to allow the entry of medical units of the Nazi forces. With them, however, travelled such a horde of fighting men and equipment, that the invasion appears to have had all thoughts of rescue overshadowed by the movement of troops. There appears to be every likelihood that Britain realizes the percentage of rescue and the proportion of warlike plans conâ€" tained in the German mission to Spain. It apâ€" pears to be plain that the Nazis under cover of rescue talk are simply preparing for a land inâ€" vasion of Gibraltar. London, England, newsâ€" papers appear to understand the situation and to | suggest that the British authorities are ready to| cope with the problem and to see to it that the Huns will not be able to use any backdoor plans of "rescuing" Gibraltar from the British. Advance urges at the present time is that the peoâ€" ple find ways and means to make it plain that the contemptible prostitution of the radio will not be tolerated. It is vital that even the stress of war should not be permitted to obscure the danger in permitting Nazi ideas to gain hold in ghe adminâ€" istration of the property of all the people. NAZIS TO THE RESCUE! THE PORCUPINE ADVANCE, TTIMMINS, ONTARIO The part of a party at Ottawa pretends to be seeking new sources of revenue. Why not tuauke "Loyalty to the party" was once a political slogan, but it has been superceded by the call to be loyal to "a part of a party." "Put into your task whatever it may be, all the courage and purpose of which you are capable. Keep your hearts proud and your resolve unshakâ€" en. Let us go forward to that task as one man, a smile on our lips, and our heads held high, and with God‘s help we shall not fail." From Africa there still comes news of progress and success to British Arms. From Albania and Lybia the news still is pleasing and promising. Britain is better prepared for any possible invasion than ever before. The air raids on Britain appear to be under better control than ever. But there is the threat to Greece from the expected German march through Buigaria. There is the menace of Japanese moves in the East. There are people who cannot see the volume of good news for the page or two of ill report. To theseâ€"to allâ€"again The Advance commends the words of the King:â€" Among the personal notss in The Haileyburian last week was the fol. lowing of local interest:â€""Robert Peter, son of Mr. and Mrs. Frank Peters, Browning street is this latest Haileybury boy to sign up with the Royal Canadian Air Force. _ Robert, who has been employed at a mine in the Porcupine district for the past year, enlisted last week and has his medical and other tests for the force. He is now awaiting a call to report for duty, according to his last lettsr home, and hopes to pay his parents a visit before going on active service." Police Magistrate S. Atkinson, Oof Haileybury, who is senior police ma. gistrate for this part of the North, and who presides at police court at Tim. mins, South Porcupine, Kirkland Lake, Elk Lake, Englchart, New Liskeard, Haileybury, Cobalt, Latchford, was re. cently elected as a member of the executive of the Ontario Magistrates Association at the annual meeting of that body in Toronto. On only one day‘s notice, Hubert Smiley, manager of the Kapuskasing branch of the Dominion Stores, was called to report at North Bay depot of the R.C.AF., for immediate acceptance. He had enrolled some weeks previously when the mobile recruiting unit was in Kapuskasing. Mrs. C. E. Taylor and son, Bobby and nephew, Peter Caldbick, were re. cent visitors at the home of Mrs Taylor‘s parents, Mr. and Mrs. Geo Caldbick. Mr. Bill Sanson left last week to spend a few weeks in the Bahamas be. fore going to California where he will take a course in aeronautics. Miss Orva McGrath spent the week.end with friends in Kirkland Lake,. Miss "Mickey" Lang of Sundridg© is the guest this week of her sister Miss Patricia Lang. Mr. Roy Fritz left on Friday for his home in Toronto, and to spend some time with relatives in Hamilton. Miss Doris Passmore left last week to visit friends in Toronto.

Some of the official utterances about the purâ€" chase of war savings stamps give a suggestion to the municipalities at the moment. At present some municipalities are finding it necessary to prosecute citizens for failure to buy dog licenses for their pets. Why not issue appeals such as:â€" "Buy your dog ligense toâ€"day, and save the town from bankruptcy toâ€"morrow." The radio feature, "The Theatre of Freedom", would be more popular under a different name. To refer to "Freedom" in connection with anyâ€" thing over the radio is to irritate or rouse to laughter. It is akin to the radio trick of referring to Hitler and Mussolini as "the sweethearts."
