that plans are well advanced at present for a combination of Britain, France and Russia to halt the demedaiions or the mad Huns. There is every indication that this combination would be Joined by a number of the smaller nations. The United States would be on the side of democracy and freedom with at least iull moral support at the outset, and the probability of more active garticipation later, if needed. The latest exhibitions of brazen broken faith and of murderous aggression on the part of Hit- ler has snapped‘me patience of the civilized naâ€" The only chance for any approach to peace is that the probable forces arrayed against him may make Hitler stop his wicked stride. The long line that he now has to defendwmuch of it in hostile territorymwould make anyone but a madman hesitate. His recent conquests may prove a des- perate danger to him. It is one thing to conquer peoples. but. quite another matter to make them fight for their despoilers. or even keep them from the side 01' the. enemy should an opposing force All indications appear to point to another world War in which most of the more important nations of theglobe will be forced to take some part, de- fensifijfirer offensive. The recent aggressions of Hitler, despite all the solemn pledges to the con- trary, now appear to be forcing war on the world. Hitler has shown that he is following the lines of policy laid down in his notorious book. “Mein Kampi‘,“ in which he features the idea that the proper procedure is to deceive, to make false promises, to lie. to steal, to plunder, to mur- der. The very brazenness and effrontery of this policy seems to make war inevitable. What can be done to avert war? Hitler has shown that pledges are useless. It is evident that it is worse than a waste of time to treat with him. No agreement can be made with him, because it is his proud boast that his most solemn pledges are worth nothing. Following the lines indicated in the book. “lViein Kampf." Hitler has indicated his intention to add Memel and Rumania to his plunder. Rumania is preparing to resist him with force. King Carol is personally directing his armies, and despatehes suggest that Hitler will have no bloodless victory in Rumania. It will be far different to the conquest of Austria. Ruâ€" mania apparently prefers to shed blood to resist the advance of the Huns, rather than to be plundered and murdered and dispossessed by the modern marauders. appear The Liver and onions! Fish and chips! Hot dogs! Pork and beans! Hamburgers! Not a councillor mentiOned one of these. It’s about time the council was made up to full strength, so- that the collective vision can see further than merely Irish stew, steak and kidney pie. As for Mayor Bartleman, he surprised every- body by failing to produce a detailed bill of fare as the ideal for prisoners. All he would say was that the meals shouldn‘t cost as much as thirty- five cents, and there should be no jelly. He was firm against the jelly. What’s the matter with the mayor? Doesn't he think the baloney fed the town in general is good enough for the pris- oners in the jail? Councillor McCabe spoke up for steaks and kidney'f‘pie, with dessert on the side. That was the closest that any of the councillors came to suggesting a full course meal for prisoners, but then this is not a full course council. Not ,a councillor suggested corned beef and cab- bage. f Apparently Mr. Jiggs has no vote in this; town. ”And not a councillor mentioned Hash! NOW, vgmt' s the mattei with Hash? Maik Twain recommended the eating of Hash. He pointed out that a man might think he was eating beef, yet it might be horsef‘lesh. A man might be de- ceived in veal, thinking it was chicken. But if he was eating hash. he knew what he was eating --he ‘was eating hash. The discussion was interesting" and illumina- tive, however. Councillor Armstrong was in favour of honest. Irish stew, without any trimmings. He felt that any man who had enough of the genuine Irish stew had all he wanted to eat and to drink. _ There .was quite a lengthy discussion at the town council meeting on Monday evening in re- gard to the meals that should be enjoyed. or otherwise, by the unfortunates who are detained in the local lock-up awaiting trial, or transfer to some other place of confinement. The discussion didn’t“ get any place in particularâ€"~didn’t decide anything. In other words it was just a council discussion. No one need be surprised. however. if it eventually results in a tax being placed on meals for prisoners, just as on coal chutes, fire escapes, and oiling the streets.

Loyal people have full British right to demand a change in the itin- erary so that literally hundreds of thousands oi people in the North will not be cheated out of every chance of seeing their King and Queen. The spokesman for a group of old-timers in the town complains to The Advance that steady dis- crimination seems to be shown to old-timers here in the matter of town work. “Most of us are too old to work in the mines,” says this spokesman. “and we do think we should be given as much chance on town work as those who have only re- cently come to town." If there is any discrimin- ation of this kind it is most objectionable. The old-timers did their share in building the town. and most of them paid taxes long enough to be entitled to a little special consideration. Hearing several complaints ab0ut the recent. address of Pi‘emiei"C§ambe1'lain being prefaced and followed by allegedly explanatory remarks by a German-American citizen, and reading further complaints about the same matter in The Globe and Mail. The Advance ventured the opinion that the Canadian Broadcasting Corporation should explain why it was necessary to have a British Premier’s address translated into Canadian Eng- lish by a German American. The C.B.C. did not send The Advance any explanation, but apparent-- 1y did condesccnd to inform The Globe and Mail that no preface or appendix was added by the Canadian Broadcasting Corporation to the Brit- lsh Premier's address. That piece of unnecessary impcrtinence was done by a United Station sta- tion that has a couple of Canadian echoes. In view of the facts of the case, The Globe and Mail did right to apologize. The Canadian Broadcast- ing Corporation has enough explanations to make for its own sins of omission and commission, withâ€" Jut being asked to explain the errors of others. Somebody is always digging up some sort of statistics that may be interesting, but not of much value otherwise. The other day The Waterloo Chronicle discovered that over 300 tons of sugar are wasted annually in the bottom of tea cups, because people are not stirring about enough. It seems a shameful waste. Couldn’t some way be found to use this side product“? If this could be done, then somebody should tackle the problem of utilizing the millions of cubic feet of froth blown annually from beer. are taking Japanese fish. It should be easy to distinguish Russian fish from Japanese. Any strange fish noticed trying to organize schools of Japanese fish may be set down at once as Russian fish. while any fish that appear to apologize when caught are Japanese fish. The Russians and Japanese are having a diplo- matic clash at present over their fishing indusâ€" tries. Both are catching fish in the same waters and the trouble seems to be that the Russians claim that the Japanese are catching Russian fish, while the Japanese assert that the Russians Perhaps, if that Ottawa gentleman were given his way about the taxing of dogs by the pound, he might eventually work out a more equitable basis of taxation for human animals. It is doubtful if any system devised could be much worse than the present plan of soaking each man who isn’t a particular friend a little more than he can com- fortably bear. Why not tax dogs by the pound? By the same token why not have the tax on fire escapes so much a rung? And coal Shutes on the basis of the size of the grating? As it is, signs are taxed by the foot, and oiling the streets by the yard. There would be less howl about a cent or two in- crease in dog flesh by the pound, than from the cruder methods of the day in adding the odd dol- crease cruder lar to GRAVEL AND SANDâ€"AND PLACER; year An Ottawa gentleman is forward with the sug- gestion that justice demands that dogs be taxed in proportion to their size and weight. He points out that it is ridiculous to tax a lap dog or a pekinese as much as some overgrown mastiff or a rangey wolf-hound. Although the law authori- ties scoffed at the suggestion. it does have posâ€" sibilities. At least, the Liberty League might look into the matter to see if it would not help reduce taxation, guard freedom and kick patronage in the pants. WWW MW tions. Appeasement is as dead as the proverbial doornail. The feeling is that Hitler must be stop- ped, and the sooner the better. There is little doubt but that he.will be stopped and stapped most effectively and completely. British, French. United States and other feeling seems to have reached the settled conclusion that force must be arrayed against the ruthless force that has turned Europe into a shambles. There is reason to believe that Mussolini, who has regard for his pledged word, will not. be on the side of Hitler. but that civilization and decency will line up Italy against the blackguardism of Hitler and his cohorts. .ag the big dog or the little dog by the m I’ORC‘UPIN'E ADVANCE, TIMMINS, ONTARIO start.
