One of these is decentralization. Othe: nations have found that to centre the war indusâ€" tries in any particular area is poor policy. Cenâ€" tralization lays the industries open to greater posâ€" sibility of destruction by enemy action and greater danger from planned sabotage. This is something that applies to all nations at war. It is the unforâ€" tunate fact that Canada has centralized its war industries in the one area that seems the more probable of attack from without or within. Canâ€" ada‘s curse of the dayâ€"politicsâ€"has been the cause for this. ‘ A matter in connection with war industries that is of particular application to Canada is the quesâ€" tion of power. There is danger of a power shortâ€" age in some parts of Canada. In this North there is ample supply of power. Another point that has particular application to Canada is the question of housing. In the case of many war industries, not only has it been necesâ€" sary to establish the war industry in question, but almost as much cost and as great time has been involved in providing adequate housing for the staffs required for the war industries, It is well to note that in many cases the establishment of cerâ€" tain war industries has presented a serious proâ€" blem not only for the present but for after the war. There are cases where the end of the war promises to leave a number of "ghost towns," with housing facilities no longer needed, and the cost of them lost to the country. Elsewhere in this issue The Advance publishes a thoughtful and wellâ€"reasoned editorial from The New Liskeard Speaker on this matter. The Speaker urges the use of this North Land for certain war industries. The North has the necessary power facilities; sufficient housing accommodation could be provided without extra cost to the government. or loss of time; and the necessary factor of decenâ€" tralization would be achieved automatically. The Speaker suggests that the problem of transportaâ€" tion could easily be adjusted. There may be some who will ask, "If the North presents such outstanding advantages for war inâ€" dustries why has not Mr. Bradette brought this fact to the attention of the government?" The Advance would be willing to wager that he has done so, ,but the curse of petty partizanship is unâ€" fortunately supreme. There is every probability that just the minute Mr. Bradette might become too insistentâ€"as able and insistent as he used to be when in opposition in the Houseâ€"he is promtly squelched with the statement:â€"*"Stop it. You are embarrassing the party." It is a question whether war industries would be of any particular advantage to the North. The Advance is not particularly interested in that at the moment, and believes that The New Liskeard Speaker has the same attitude. The whole point is whether it would be of advantage to Canada in its war effort. Another matter brought up by The Speaker in its editorial is the Government‘s failure to found either an air or military establishment in the North, The Advance, since the beginning of the war, has been emphasizing the facilities here for air training. There are several air fields available for air training. These have been little used for the purpose for which they were built at great exâ€" pense. Air fields have been established in the south at great cost and with the loss of time while they were being constructed. Many have been worrying about the losses and setâ€"backs overseas. What the people of Canada really have to torment their souls is that though the people are allâ€"out for the war effort, those in authority appear to care about nothing but the future of the part of a part of a part of a political party. The serious reverses that have come to the cause of the nations fighting for freedom and decency in the world in recent days are depressing. There is no sense in belittling the extent of the losses sutfâ€" fered. They are serious handicaps, indeed. OLf course, it would be criminal folly to do nothing but worry and deplore, Reverses should always spur to renewed effort. In the broad outlook there is always the comfort that the British people will investigate the causes for the reverses and take such measures as will make repetition improbable. It would appear that some facts vital to the case have not been available to the public. As a conâ€" sequence the attituda to take is to hold fast to the fact that the United Nations have such resources of men and materials that eventually victory is assured if all keep fighting on. China, even in greater degree than Russia, has proven that given the men and the extent of territory, real defeat is not possible. Neither Britain nor the United States have yet brought the full force of their powers have not been available to the pubiic.

China, even in greater degree than Russia, has proven that given the men and the extent of territory, real defeat is not possible. Neither Britain nor the United States have yet brought the full force of their powers into effect, The recent reverses seemed the more Timmins, Ont., Thursd: L’""'""*""""' Che Yorrupine Advaner THE PROGRESS OF THE WAR June 25th, 1942 "O'O'O"O‘““ difficult to face because they wers preceded by victories that tempted some to see an early issue of the war. Canadians have suffered, perhaps, more than others in the war from anxieties and worries, beâ€" cause of the peculiar conditions here. In Canada the great majority of the people are "aliâ€"out" for the war, while their leaders are admittedly "allâ€" out" for a part of a part of a party. In the House of Commons last week one member of the Govâ€" ernment practically admitted that to him the fuâ€" ture of his party was more important than anyâ€" thing else. "purges." Even Britain and the United States have found it necessary to do saome "purging." Canada has contented itself with plebiscites and petty poliâ€" tics. So long as this condition continues, there will be anxiety and worry over the war in this Doâ€" minion. Canada will deserve no better than this so long as this Dominion tries to run an outâ€"all effort with a part of a part of a party at the helm. National government alone can provide full naâ€" tional leadership and full national effort. Treachery, and the indifference and incompeâ€" tence that are sadly akin to treachery, have feaâ€" tured in appalling fashion in this war. Every naâ€" tion concerned has found it necessary to have Going beyond the little wouldâ€"be leaders of the Dominion, however, there is comfort and strength and inspiration in the head of the whole British nation : "Still stands thc motto of the King: "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." C dn We Mc n in is sA db is it l o ce nc For centuries, the clephant has been singled out by popular opinion as the animal with the longest and the best memory. The elephant is supposed to remember either kindness or injury with unâ€" failing accuracy and complete discrimination. Popular fancy pictures the elephant as not only remembering that once it was given a pepper pelâ€" let for a peanut, but keeping in memory the face and form of the fellow who did the trick. The eleâ€" phant is also described as the animal that could recall years afterwards the particular mouse that nibbled away the ropes that bound it in captivity. The New Liskeard Speaker, however would take away from the elephant the traditional crown of memory and hand to the cow the honour of being the quadruped with the best memory. A week or so ago a farmer near New Liskeard missed one Of his cows, and on search being made for her, the animal was found near Loon Lake with a brand new calf. Cow and calf were taken home and cared for. A couple of days later the cow was missâ€" ing again, but before search could be made for her she arrived home herself in company with another new calf. The theory advanced by The Speaker is that the cow had twins, but the farmer overlooked the one calf when he found the cow in the first place, and the good mother cow went back to get her other calf. Of course, The Speaker may not be right in this theory. Hasn‘t The Speaker heard the one about twins being forbidden for the duraâ€" tion of the war? The Wartime Prices and Trade Board allows only one delivery a day. In any event The Speaker was much impressed with the incident, but seems to be inadequate, oI something, in referring to the attributes of this particular cow. In both the heading and the artiâ€" cle, The Speaker refers to the cow with the two calves as "the cow with the good memory."‘ That cow had more than a memory. She had two calves. At the same time it must be admitted that a mother with two calves who forgot she had twins might aptly be described as a forgetful old cow. Sunday was Father‘s Day the year.

The war budget will bring home to most people in Canada the fact that there is a war in progress. Unfortunately, however, the burden of the budget falls with the usual unequal force on some more than on others. So far that has been the way of it. One of the businesses bearing a specially onerous burden from war conditions has been The Northâ€" ern Tribune, of Kapuskasing. The editor and proâ€" prietor, Mr. Ed. Stephenson, ,is a veteran of the last war, with impaired health and strength due to his services for his country.

The Advance thanks The Speaker for lt.s‘ kindly ®xplanation but cannot honestly profit from the excuse. So far as The Advance has ever heard, calves are put in cattle cars on the railroad. Calves are never carried in the van of a railroad train, though the bull is often shot there, mmins Branch SCARTH, Man A German prisonerâ€"ofâ€"war, who escaped from a Northern Ontario prison camp, has boasted that he was saluted by men of the armed forces as he walked along the streets afiter his escape. This does not make pleasant reading, but it is more pleasing than the fact that a police officer was inâ€" formed that there was an escaped prisonerâ€"ofâ€"war available, and the officer failed to act in the matâ€" ter. This will need a lot of explanation. Also, there should be explanation why the escape was kept a secret from the public. Had the fact of the escape been given out the prisoner would not likely have been able to get away very far before being captured again. anager BORN â€" on June 14th, 1942 to Mr. and Mrs. Wm.
