“There’s no land like Canada. Here there is security. liberty, chance for happiness! Cana- dians don’t know how fortunate they are!” These words are well worth thinking about. It may be that in Canada the peoplq are so accustomed to security and liberty that they do not give these things full value. Most of the New Canadians know that the land of their birth lacks the secur- ity, the liberty found here. Because of this they appreciate to the full the measure of safety and freedom that other Canadians may take for grant- ed. There was a time when to a large number of people of foreign birth the great ambition seemed to be to make some money in Canada and then get back to their former land as soon as possible. That has ceased to be a common practice. Now it is more likely that the New Canadian who has made some money here will take a trip to his old home. In most cases he returns with the thought, “there‘s no place like Canada after all.” The New Canadian has much to bring this countryâ€"tradi- tions, music, art, folk lore, and many other forms of culture that will enrich Canadian life. At the present time conditions are not such that further population is desirable. Probably the turn to prosperity will be along soon, and then more New Canadians may be accommodated here. With reasonable care in the choice of nationalities en- couraged to come here, they will be found excellent citizens. With a leaven of British stock they will take due part in building up a great country. In the meantime, however, it is well to give some special consideration to the average New Canadian ---~industrious, enterprising, friendly, and ready to be a good citizen of this goodly land. In Britain there is noted now a disposition to the truth of the question the recent temporary peace. In the first enthusiasm, there was a tendency to hail the state- ments of Premier Chamberlain as foretelling not only a general peace for the time being, but the| Pity the lino promise that “never again would Italy, Germany, while 380 that France and Britain go to war with one another.” Estrella.” “Gua Sober second thought, however, is tempting even like that.

In other words. Hitler was not so anxious to defy Great Britain when he learned that Britain would actually take up his defiance if the worst came to the worst. and that Britain was preparing for such an eventuality. It is easy to realize then that it may not have been diplomacy or tact or sweet rea- son that won the present peace, but rather the show of force. the threat of force. It appears im- possible to escape the belief that the peace was due to force and the threat of force, and that in the peace no less than in constant threat of war that has been hovering over Europe so long, the deciding factor after all is force.

While most motorists are more or less accustomed to traffic lights from their visits to the South. they were something new in Timmins and it was amus- ing to note what happened. Many motorists didn‘t notice the lights and sailed right by. Others stopped for the lights, irrespective of the colour of the lights. Pedestrians acted the same way, only more so. People watching the proceedings were sure that a serious accident would occur before the The sad fate of Czechoslovakia should carry a lesson to other nations, small and great. It is doubtful if Czechoslovakia will be permitted to benefit itself by the lesson, though the nations of the world certainly should allow Czechoslovakia this deferred privilege. The lesson is that Gerâ€" mans should not be permitted to segregate them- selves and organize to take over their part of the country. Czechoslovakia, in self protection, should be permitted to deport every German from her pitifully restricted present territory. There should be no force placed on Czechoslovakia to force that country to trade with Germany or to hold any intercourse with the land of Hitler. The world also should be clearly informed that pro- ducts that will come now from the industries stol- en from Czechoslovakia are not the same as the many articles that have been so popular in many countries where “made in Czechoslovakia” was a trade mark that won respect. The Germans who have now fliched these factories from Czechoslo- vakia without compensation or redress should not be permitted to use the word “Czechoslovakia” at all. The goods henceforth should be labelled ”Made in Greater Germany,” or at least, “made in the German Sudeten.” Hitler and his cohorts should not be allowed to profit by the art, the in- dustry, the enterprise that have made Czechoslo- vakian wares so esteemed in many countries. The German products should be truthfully labelled hereafter, so that civilized people may know what to do about them. Other nations, removed from the immediate threat of German force, should guard themselves by making sure that no German minority is per- mitted to agitate and organize after the manner of the Sudeten Germans.’ Any attempt by Ger- mans to so agitate or organize should be followed by prompt deportation. Some of the bitterness of the Czechoslovakian situation will pass, if other nations learn the lesson, assuring for themselves the truth of the words, “It cannot happen here.” “Czechoslovakia.” Editors write in such a way that if a linotype operator cannot spell, it is too bad. There must be a special Heaven for good linotype operators who spell well, for they have little hope in this world. Likely in a month or two, they will have to tackle “The Fuehrer." “Rumania” and “Sighisoara.” Pity the linotype operator! It is only a little while ago that he had to be able to spell “Sa. da Estrella.” “Guadalajara,” “Valladolid” and things like that. He had the comfort that he didn’t have to pronounce them. Next came the war in China, and the unfortunate linotype operator had to tackle ones like “Sianguyangfu,” “Pingsiang” and “Tsinghwachen.” These latter are not pronounc- ed; you have to sing them. Lately, the operator has had to deal with “Praha,” “Budejovice” and a chance that a sober Chinaman would refuse. British newspapers incline now to the idea that the terms of the recent peace are not the best that should have been obtained and that the peace itself will be only temporary. There is, of course, the comfort that even to defer the horrors of war is to accomplish something. But it seems inescap- able that force is still the ruling factor in the matter of world affairs. Because of this there should not be the slightest concession to those premature minds who suggest another doze of disarmament. The lesson of the last disarma- ment should not be forgotten. There should be no suggestion of any reduction in British efforts at preparedness. Indeed, it is not too much to say that the more Britain arms and prepares for a war that all hope may be avoided, the greater the chance that the present temporary peace will continue. It is a sad fact that force rules the roost in Europe to-day. 'W'mmmW escape the charge that they. too, have apparently forgotten treaties in the fear of war. This is not to say that France necessarily should have declar- ed war in connection with the Czechoslovakia case. or that Britain should have followed suit as the pledged ally of France. It is simply to point out that treaties no longer appear to carry the supreme weight that they were once supposed to do. Any- one who places too much faith in the pledged word of any nation to-day must be morethan simply an optimist. The United States escapes the onus of any treaties by simply refusing to sign the same, even though the United States may actually dictate the terms. That does not help the situa- tion any.

But there were no accidents. This was partly due to the thoughtfulness and interest of the police. Although the force was depleted on account of so many having to attend court at Cochrane, there were officers stationed at times at the two corners to help traffic obey the lights. The police showed the right spiritâ€"the idea being to help the situation, assist the public in obeying the traffic lights, and with no thought of arrests or court cases for the present. Eventually, of course, it will be necessary to require strict observ- ance of the traffic lights for the public safety, but in the meantime the police are doing no more than to earnestly seek ,to assist the general public in Judgment was reserved by the n crate in a reckless driving char gainsL Leo Racicot. of Connaught was alleged to have pulled out the curb on Pine street and stru oncoming car.
