W ThE FOACUPRE AOVARLL For some time past it has been a matter of common knowledge in the North Land that a large number of the aliens in this country intended to return to their European homes at the earliest possible monment. They have simply been waiting for ‘"‘the : war ‘to be over." Many of them very naturâ€" ally are desirous of returning to see how it has fared with near relatives in the~â€"warring countries. Some of them have lost all communication with their families and friends since the war ‘began. Others believe that conâ€" ditions will be better for them now in their old homelands. A few see opâ€" portunity for warldly advantage in the conditions that will obtain overâ€" seas after the war. All of them have beer aided in the possibility of return ing by the money that could be made in Canada during the past few years. There is every indication that a large number of aliens will feave Canada in the pbear future to return to the lands from whence they came.
