Over the radlo came the atory that Russian troops had invaded Poland, that the Polish government had: retreated to Rumanian terrltory along with the Bmfsh and French Misâ€" sion to Poland. that some Polish troops had sought refuge in Rumania, and that under the additional brutal pressure, Poland could not hope to hold out much longer. In the past two weeks, the Polish people have won the admlration of the whole civilized world by the gauant and un: daunted battle they have put up in defense of liberty and theirâ€"land. of courage and deâ€" termination that will win a place in history have been .recorded of the Polish armies. PEople in Canada and other Jlands have followed the battie with the keenest interest and the most. earnest prayers for final victory by the gallant Polish peoâ€" ple. To see the Polish people fall victims to the brutal and unprincipled aggressors is a‘ personal sorrow to all rightâ€"thinking people. ‘The poét Campbell said that "Freedom shrleked when Kosâ€" chiuski fell." A modern poet may well say that the whole civilized world wept to see the Polish people enslaved, though it beâ€"but for a Canadaâ€"$83.00 Per Year. United Statesâ€"$3.50 Per Year In passing it might be noted that the situation is not as black as it might be. In Britaln there is ‘bellef that Russia may not have actually joined the enemy. Russia still.. maintains that. it : is standjng neutral.. The invasion of Poland is ex: plained as necessary to restore order there and to protect the interests 6f the Soviet in general‘ and safeguard the §afet.y of Russian people in the terrltory concerned. There is _a suggestdon that Russia‘s action is to prevent Germany‘s domin- ance of Poland, rather tha,h to asslst Germany in' its destruction. f Taking the situation at its darkest, however. the call is for courage, rather than for tears. If _Russla, despite its protesmtions to, the: contrary, has joined Nazi Germany th effort ‘to conquer all Europe, then the.need is. for the.moreée determinâ€" atlon to fight the agggressors 'rhe fate of Poland should toâ€"day but add flames to t.he Iervqur with whjch the enemiés. of. cmumxon, or freedom and decency must be fought., ,Bnmb.in and. ii‘.rance are facing a new situation,. ca,lmly andâ€" cnurageouslv_ Timmins, Ont., Monday, Sept. 18th, 1939 ‘‘The Porcupine Women‘s Music and Literary Club has set a thoughful â€"and loyal example by disconâ€" tinuing regular meetings for. the duration of the war, so as to allow the time to be devoted to more direct patriotic endeavour.. This example is furâ€" ther. heightened by t.he decision to hold the cash «on hand for some special patriotic cause.. There is temptation to suggest that no more worthy or fltt.ing cause for contribution is likely to arise than that of the Polish Red Cross.. The contribution of Poland to music and literature is outstanding, and. there would be somethlng especially touching in the idea of a women s music and literary society in Canada s big gold camp sending a:contribution to the sick and the injured and: the refugees from the land ‘of Paderewski and Sienkiewicz. ~ Several letters received recently by The Advance refer to the present war as oneé against "Fascism." A statement by the Labourâ€"Farmer. movement emphastzed the idea that the fight toâ€"day is .against "Fascism.‘"‘. On the surface the battle toâ€" day is against "Nazism." The Fascists are on the neutral stand. To say that Fascism and Nazism are the same thing is to beg the suggestion that Nazism and> Communism are now allies. In the meantime why not say that war is being waged on Nazism,;â€"not Fascism, and hope that it will not turn out, as some fear, that Nazism Communism and Fascism are all the same foes under different names. â€" Young men often have questions but this young mahohndthemr “Whynottreatwar like other‘criminal activities are treated?" â€"he asked. "If you make war unprofltable, there will not be recurring wars every twentyâ€"fAive years" he said. Pressed for definite details of his ideas about peace plans, he said:â€""The whole idea of dealing with criminals is to discourage crime by making it definitely unprofitable. When you catch a burglar you not only take away from him his illegal gains, but you certainly don‘t allow him to retain his burglary tools and equipment and add to them so that he starts into businessâ€"again as soon as his term has expired. My idea of the next peace would be to strip the criminals of all their gangâ€" ster equipment and restrain them from gathering new tools or planning new crimes. If the aggresâ€" sor nations were placed under police guard for twenty years or â€"so, there would be no new war twentyâ€"five years afterwards. Robbery brings the penalty of loss of liberty for.terms of years, murâ€" der is punishable by death, and the proven traitor pays both with the.loss of ‘his life and the confisâ€" cation of his estate. The gangster nations are no more than robbers, murderers, traitors to huâ€" manity. Why not deal with them as such? Breax them up, police them, keep them from getting new tools and equipment,. and there would be no need to have war every twentyâ€"five years. That‘s what I think." And that is a thought that will find firm root in the minds of most thoughtful.people.: For the moment there is a world conflagration to be fought. When it is subdued and conqueredâ€"as it will be without failâ€"â€"thoughts might well turn to the truth kept well in mind that criminality is never hampered by disarming of the forces of law order. c § There is a decided touch of the absurd in the fact: that â€"Canada is so illâ€"prepared for war that the uniforms have been called in from existing militia regiments so that the recruits in Canada‘s Active Service Force will not be compelled to parade in their shirt tails. There is a vulgar exâ€" pression about a man being caught with ‘his pants down Apparently the Minister of Militia -Was in worse plight being caugh} without aanv pants at all for the; new membars of the family~, But, perhaps the Minister of Militia being a Highâ€" lander, wears only the kilt. worth defending," that the British Rmpire was worth the sacrifite even of life itself.â€" But why make it a game or a celebration every quarter cenitury? Why not decide it once for all ?

One sample inciâ€" dent is the fact that uniforms have been called in from existing militia regiments because there are. not enough uniforms on hand or available for Canâ€" ada‘s defence force. Another case is the truth â€" that private buildings have been requisitioned for military purposes because military centres have not been provided with these in past years. Dnttnz the days of peace Canada appears to have ut.t.erly‘ disregarded war so far as any preparations were concerned.
