Members Canadian Weekly Newspaper Asseciation; Ontarieâ€" Quebec Newspaper Association; Class "A" Woekly Group Premier tt who preached and planned the world conâ€" fereneem which the nations now are travelling.: President Romevdtummmmditforwwadm given by Hon. R. B. Bennett on many features of the deâ€" pression and its possible alleviation. But surély the Canaâ€" mmhmumammmmmmenm Probably, one of the most irritating examples of this perâ€" verted spirit was given last week by a member of the Doâ€" minion pariiamentâ€"a former honourableâ€"James Malcolm, Esq. Mr. Malcolm, in addressihg a Liberal party rally, referred to the notable increase in the price paid the farmers for certain }lnes of livestock. "But don‘t give any credit for this to that man Bennett," he is quoted as saying, "but thank that wonderful man, Franklin Roosevelt, pxesident of the United States." Mr. Malculm would accuse Hon, R. B. Benâ€" nett and his government of being responsible for all the evils of t.he day in this country, and yet would award all honours for relief to a foreign country. As a matter of truth and talmess. it can not be said yet whether or not President Roosevelt is a great man or a small, whether he will be the aav!our of his country, or a broken reed on which his countrymen will lean to their further discomfiture. It is too early yet to judge the work of President Roosevelt. He has not had time yet to prove himself. He is entitled to a fair change and to all consideration, That much should be said, f no more may justly be claimed. He has started well, but his own people are ready to admit that nothing o"fnt‘ny permanent value has been achieved as yet. On the o hand Hon. R. B. Bennett‘s record speaks for itsolf. He at least kept Canada from the depths plumbâ€" ed by other nations, including the United States. He has givenanengrt‘y a faith, a courage, a resourcefuiness to a staggering tuk that should win admiration from , any thoughtful fieople As a matter of fact, much of the insplr- ation that has aided President Roosevelt came from the sameeuner“senmtt. It was Premier Bennett who sugâ€" geszedtbemcentoonfereneeinthcvmtedm It was a fair changée be said, bt started welf, nothing of On the ou$ itself. He *g The title question is very complicated. No sooner is one title obliterated than ten new ones are brought to life. Canada has foresworn bully beef barons and patent mediâ€" cine knights only to be overâ€"run with United Fronters, Comâ€" munists, Reds, Pinks, Canadian Commonwealth Federationâ€" alists, Defence Leaguers, Unemployed Workers who won‘t work, and ll sorts of titled officials of all sorts of fraternal fratricidal, community and communist orders and disorders. About thé only way out seems to be to organize just one more society, club or order, take everybody in and give them each a txtle, even though it be no more than "Comrade" or "Citizen." The new order might well be called the "M. O. O. K. T. ‘F.," which being translated means the "Mystic Order of Kidding the Troops." nc i. Om i s ol n n U 50s Vtc ul Py utw es E4 J m t + are Tc l e w t t Sih i ty onl °5 CCC »N in ifi zts On previmls occasions The Advance has referred to those low-spiriteq. Canadians who seem to believe that anything Canadian of British is beneath contempt, but anything forâ€" cign must perforce be from the very heavens. On the train the other day there was a gentleman wearâ€" ing a wellâ€"bailored suit of clothes and yet carrying a comâ€" mon packsack as his baggage. "Who is the gentleman," a man in the Pullman smoker enquired. "Oh, that‘s one of those Insultlng Engineers!" was the ready response from the fellegw in the corner. 'fltles are everywhere condemned in Canada. Of course, a is not as badly off in this respect as the United St es. In the States they have no use at all for titles exâ€" cept to marry them. S Even the undertakers in the cities are opposed to titles, so much sofindeed, that they refu}e the titles, "Undertakers‘" or "Funeral Directors." They simply call themselves "Morâ€" ticlans." Titles are vain. Surely when the undertakers drop them they must be very dead. "The average man is opposed to all titles." This is the statement often voiced recently while the title question has been under discussion. Surely! The Surgeons, the Doctors, the Haberdashers, the Accoucheurs, the Ophthalmulogists, the Stockbrokers, the Insurance Agents, the Feotwear Speciaâ€" lists, the Civil Engineers, the Landscape Gardeners, the Tonsorial Artists, the Auctioneers, the proprietors of the Emporiums,â€"nearly any of these will cond@¢mn titles for a Nickle. Yet if you scratch any of them you are nearly sure to find underneath a Grand Patriarch of the Sons of Temâ€" perance, Worshipful Master, a Potentate, a Dictator, a High Muckâ€"aâ€"muck, or a Supreme Guardian of something or other. $ Speaking of clergymen, past and present, there was once one of the profession in Timmins who was much against the use of titles. He wouldn‘t use the title "Reverend." He just dubbed himself "Pastor So and So." It is a great thing to be consistent. s James Shaver Woodsworth, despite the fact that he apâ€" pears to belong to the Beloved Old Land Knighthood of the Beaver is another of the spurners of titles, He dropped his former title of "Reverend," and is reported as offended because The Advance has given him the title of "the late Reverend Mr. fiVolsworth " ‘It was proven Sunday evening, however, that even though he has dropped the title of the ministry he still retains the habit of taking up a collection. "Nearly everybody in Canada is opposed to the use of titles," solemnily asserts a weekly newspaper editor of Ontario â€"It certainly appears to be that way! If you don‘t care what you say! That editor prides himself upon being a Legionnaire, an Elk, a Journalist, a Lawn Bowler, a Socialist, a Single Taxer, a Disciple of Karl Marx, a Froth Blower. He left the Moose because they wouldn‘t make him a Grand Dictator. Titles are abhorrent to him. Then there is a former premier of Canada who recently went on record as being opposed to titles in Canada. He has shown his good faith by dropping such titles as "B.A.," "M.A.," "Ph. D."‘ He is now a simple, plain untitled gentleâ€" man known as "The Right Honourable William Lyon Macâ€" kenzie King, MP., P.C., CM.G., LL.D." He hates titles so much that he puts them before and behind his name, so that the result is something like a hot dog. He ought to be opposed to titles. When it takes more than three lines to carry a man‘s names and his titles, then that is carrying the thing too far. Then there is Miss Agnes MacPhail, M.P. Now there is a young lidy opposed to titlee. resents being called "Director of Oil Wells." Still more is it offensive to this sincere and superior sister to be referred to as the "Scottish Postmistress for the Farmers‘ Sun.‘" Timmins, Ont., Thursday, June 8th, 1933 THE INFERIORITY COMPLEX * HOW SOME HATE TITLES After a royal commission investigated charges of improâ€" priety against Judge Stubbs, of Winnipeg, he has been disâ€" missed from his place on the bench. During the investigaâ€" tion he proved himself temperamentally unfitted for any office such as that of judge. His references to higher courts and other authorities could not be otherwise than inimizal in its effects on good order. : His friends now pretend that he was removed from the bench for saying there is one law for the rich and another for the poor. Of course, that is not the fact. He was dismissed because his whole attitude was reâ€" prehensible, andbemmehlsahsnrdlyhighoonoeptionot himself and his equally ridiculously law opinion of his fellows in authority made impossible the proper regard for law and Empire Loyalists. When The Advance has suggested the providing of emâ€" ployment rather than direct relief the reply has always beer, "Where is the money to come from?" The answer was given to this last week when an Ontario loan was overâ€"subâ€" scribed as soon as it was announced. There is enough money in this country to finance. The late reverend Mr. Woodsworth will be remembered here by his beard. Yet strange as it may seem his second name is "Shaver," after his mother‘s people who were United the better class of settlers favour. In the meantime, the people in general need not worry about the newspaper stories about the North. They mean little except the lack of other sensations for certain types of newspapers in the cities. see that his complaints go to distant newspapers, because it will take so much longer to prove the falsity of his comâ€" plaints, and he can enjoy his affected martyrdom in the meantime. So far as the people of the North are concerned it will be taken for granted that the new settlers in the Kapuskasing district are in just as good position as the older settlers there, maybe better. In this country those who have studied the question are inclined to believe that the remedy for the settlers, old and new, lies in some form of landâ€" clearing bonus. instead of other forms of direct help. Under the bonus plan the worker would be helped. ‘This is the plan During the past week the daily newspapers have given much space to statements alleged to be made by the mayor of Windsor and another gentleman from that city to the effect that families coming to the North under the Governâ€" ment backâ€"toâ€"theâ€"land plan are suff@ring indescribable hardships and are in appalling condition.. Some of the newspapers of the North censure the daily newspapers for giving space and prominence to the illâ€"considered words of these Windsor men. It is argued, with some show of reason, that any investigation of the cases in question would have proven that conditions were not nearly so serious as sugâ€" gested, and in any case that the backâ€"toâ€"theâ€"land plan was not to blame, still less the virtue of the North Land in an agricultural way. The cases of hardship referred to by the men from Windsor are supposed to be in the Kapuskasing area. People in the North know that even in prosperous days settlers in the North by reason of the difficulties of the life often fall upon illâ€"fortune. It is equally true, however, that their plight has only to be known for relief to be asâ€" sured. It is unthinkable that settlers near Kapuskasing, under the backâ€"toâ€"theâ€"land plan or any other scheme should be allowed to suffer day after day without action by the people of the North to relieve their distress. It is still less likely that the people of Kapuskasing should know nothing of the matter, or knowing of the cases should keep silent. The Advance has every faith in the kindness of The Northâ€" ern Tribune, for instance, and is sure that were conditions in any measure like those alleged by the Windsor men, The Northern Tribune would know about it, and knowing would see that everyone else knew as well. It is an odd fact that in all the complaints that have been made recently in reâ€" gard to the backâ€"toâ€"theâ€"land plan the case has been stated in some distant newspaper. When the plan first opened there were complaints made to The Advance and to other newspapers in the North, and it is worth noting that the fair grounds of complaint were very promptly removed. The backâ€"toâ€"theâ€"land scheme has great possibilities but it also has many dangers. One of the chief of these dangers is the locating on homesteads of men utterly unfitted and unqualiâ€" fied for the life. Any who have genuine grievances will naturally bring them to local attention. Then they will be investigated, and some form of remedy is sure. If the fault lies with the laziness or lack of the settler that fact will soon be apparent. If a settler under the "backâ€"toâ€"theâ€"land" plan is simply growling because he is one of those United Grunters that are allied to the communists, he does well to In this comnnection, it is worthy of note that in one partiâ€" cular President Roosevelt commenced his work with one outâ€" standing advantage. He lm1ad the strongest support and coâ€" operation from the vast majority of his countrymen. The pregs in general gave him full support and sympathy as he approached the stupendous task that was before him. Eten his political opponents withheld criticism and bitterness for a time. it seemed to be agreed by all United States citizens Mbytbeveryractmatmcmmotthemnlm he must necessarily be of greater intellect and acumen than any foreigner. The people of the United States are not. affiicted with any inferiority complex. Perhaps, if they gave half of their assurance to the abased Canadian element, both nations would be better off in the world. One of the bitâ€" terest burdens that Hon. R. B. Bennett has had to bear has been the vicious opposition of a certain section of his own people and the constant petty criticism and faultâ€"finding of everything attempted. The Malcolim spirit that all curses should rest on the head of the Canadian premier and all glory go to the foreign ruler has done much to make the unstinted and unselfish work of Hon. R. B. Bennett less efâ€" fective and more discouraging. When the record of the last few years is calmly reviewed by the thoughtful people of Canada, when all the facts are weighed in the light of reaâ€" son and fairness, due meed of praise will be given to Premier Bennett and his cabinet for the great work done in these trying days, and there will be nothing but â€"condemnatio for the selfâ€"abased Canadians who belittle everything Cana dian and acclaim with frenzy anyt.hing that has a foreign flavour. In the meantime it would be well for thoughtfu! Canaâ€" dians, who really have just cause to be proud of their counâ€" try and its talented and publicâ€"spirited leaders, to take note of the silly tendency of some who affect an openness of mind when they are really troubled with an emptiness. Canaâ€" dians are not all helpless imbeciles or brainless scoundrels. Everything foreign is not necessarily heavenâ€"sent. Canada has its good points, its good men, its successes and its glories. To.pretend that there is no virtue in Canada, its people or its leaders is not only poor patriotism, but it is also poor judgâ€" ment and poor truth. It is not necessary to belittle Canada to give other nations their due. In the United States Preâ€" mier Bennett made many friends and admirers. He did a notable work and took a high place in public esteem. It must confuse the people of the United States to see the craven attitude of the hideously hidebound partisans in this country, who affect to believe that no good can come from Canada but that all glory, fame and honour must be given to alien people and alien ideas.

The first dangerous play come from the Hollinger right wing when. Morris missed a nice chance to score, failing to make good his opportunity. At the other end Morgan drove a hard one over. Hollinger combined again and Roy gave Johnston ‘the leather but he skied it over. Walsh had to retire through injury to his leg early in the match. McIintyre made a fine play and Rowe made a good save of Callaghan‘s firstâ€" timer. The MciIntyre changed their lineâ€"w$ for this match, Place taking Hampton‘s position at ‘back and Knee coming on the halfâ€"back line for Dawson.
