a great hubbub raised in financial circles by the power barons of montreal when premier hepburn and his cabinet put through a b1u to cancel the contract made by the ferguson government with four power companies to supply power and light for 40 years for hydro users in ontario art a cos over the four decades of approxi mately 400 millions the opposition to the bill took the view that the credit of the province would be ad- l versely affected by repudiation of a signed and sealed contract premier hepburn and his supporters in anil out of the legislature contended that the high price for unwanted power for such a long term was a millstone around the neck of light and power users the next move of the power barons of quebec was to seek re dress in tho courts contending it was beyond the power of a provin cial legislature to cancel an agree ment entered into by a former legislature the attorneygeneral refused a fiat to allow an appeal to ba heard in the courts against this fiat the ottawa valley power co one of the four companies to suffer from tho long term bargain being cancelled appealed and the case was argued recently in osgoode hall toronto and chief justice j rose decided the attorneygeneral had the legal rights to refuse a suit being brought against the province the defeated company took the case to the ontario court of appeal and on nov 19th tho decision of justice rose was reversed three judg es being against justice roses decision and two in favor the case now goes to the privy council of great britain the highest court in the british realm com menting on the court of appeals decision premier hepburn in his well known laymans style declared the decision was a hogshead of law and a thimbleful of justice 3 fordson tractors reconditioned also a number of other good

aomocs ionoc soca f contributed the womens christian temper ance union at first spent most of its energies in combating the liquor trallic then narcotic drugs were in cluded and more recently the organ ization has a department known as peace and arbitration the subject of war and peace should be of vital interest to every woman and especially every christian woman there are more forces at work for peace today than ever before and we hope to see the day when all women and men too will love peace and hate war that day will onie more quickly if all of us who love peace are really peace makers let us consider some of the reasons why we should love peace in the first place tm thinking per son can he happy unless they have peace peace is an inward thing which springs from a feeling that everything is alright that we are secure and have nothing to fear the fruits of peace are goodwill and kindness and it is based on righteous ness we say that we have peace because hostilities have ceased and a peace treaty has been signed forc ing the losing nations to keep peace in reality we know that true peace is not something which can be im posed on any nation and the treaty of versailles is not a peace treaty because it was not based on right eousness and has produced tho fruits bitterness resentment fear in security and even hatred the joint commission to which all disputes between he united states of america and canada are referred is an outstanding example of the suecessfulness of the arbitration method it is possible to keep peace and to have a greater degree of peace than the world has ever known we must have that peace if men are to he really happy and live the abundant life let us all share the peace ideal and be peace makers let us remind ourselves of some of tho reasons why we should hate war first we think of its results the loss of life according to the swedish society for the study of the social consequences of war must be put down at 10000000 lives the money cost was 9000000 an hour for every hour of the duration of the war this would give every person in the world a university education the physical breakdown cannot be estimated hut the special ists in eugenics have shown that the physical standard of all nations has been greatly lowered because of the loss of life of tho physically fit men who would have been the fathers of this generation also the children of people who lived through the war years are nervous and high strung the moral breakdown is the most terrible result of war the first casualty or war is truth because war propaganda is based on lies once a nation gives itself to war il must force its men to win at any price no matter how low the enemy stoops you must meet him at his own game and use the worst gun the worst gas or the worst trick and use it first cruelty deception and immorality hold sway and there is no honour in modern international warfare war is demoralizing to the last degree we rate war because of its meth ods the methods of war are based on tie theory that the end justifies the means the chivalry of ancient wars is gone and the brutalities of modern warfare are unspeakably awful it is mass murder or whole sale butchery and no method is too diabolical we hate war because wo ace bo- ginning to understand its causes first there is the story of mans greed xutions aro envious for raw material and natural resources of other countries and this leads to rivalry and exploitation in the scramble for larger markets compe tition is so great that hatred is aroused then there is tho greed of tho vast armament concerns which have governments in their power and are spreading their propaganda everywhere investigations by sena tor nye and others have definitely proven that the armament firms havo deliberately postered strifo and thwarted efforts toward peace this is one of the most sordid disclosures of our time and we cannot learn of it without hating war with a strong and righteous hatred finally wo hate war because it denounces the highest christian principles it denies the power of love tho sacredness of human per sonality and tho unity of man it is interesting to note that the early christian took tho teachings and ox- airplo of the prince of peace seriously for the first s00 years of christianity although soldiering was an honored occupation no christian was a soldier the historians tell us plainly that all men knew that a christian was a conscientious ob jector but later they began to com promise and join the army and later still we know how christians par ticipated in the crusades or holy wars the childrens crusade is one of the darkest blots on the pages of history for it shows just how the socalled christians departed from the true way the attitude of some christians in the last war greatly disturbed some deeply religious peoplo and today there is a great host of christians who declare that never again must pulpits be used as recruiting stations if war is un christian and wrong and ttseless and unnecessary we must use our god- given brains to bring peace what can we do to be peace i makers first we must have the j peace ideal firmly in our mind and be enthusiastic about it any spirit spreads so lets have the peace spirit then we can through conver sation and other educational methods spread the facts about the benefits of peace and folly of war we can stand behind every movement which is endeavouring to bring peace and have faith in the league of nations with its arbitration methods in spite of its recent fail ures it is the only organization for promoting international cooperation and achieving international peace and security the ideas embodied iu the league covenant are the wisest and most practical that have yet been devised and they need the support of public opinion in the last place we need to be really christian if we wish to be peace makers we will always show kind ness love and goodwill and be true peace makers at home in the church and community when men have the spirit of the prince of the christmas message will yearround fact peace on goodwill to men let us be peace bo a earth peace makers toronto
