For simple rosms the textural cottons or cotton and rayon mixtures and the row h woven wsols and mohairs are being used a great deal.

Under the intense urse of war, much will be learned about such matters as greater speed, bigger loads and, paradox‘cally enough, greater safety. The business of mining, exploration and Â¥developâ€" !men-t. as we all know, has been troâ€" mendously accelerated by the airplane during the past two decades. For all we ‘know the changes of the next two | decades may be even more startling. (From Northern Mincr) Largoly because British factories and ficlds are subject to destruction by bombing, Canada is to be made the airâ€" plane centre cf the British Empire. Ar. initial $700,090,000 of outlay is conâ€" templated for the training of war pilots selected from among the finest blo>d of the Dominions. It is suggested that Canada will emerge as one of the great air powers. This would only be apâ€" prcpriate to the facts that in the last war were among the boldest, ; | $ bravest and most efficient of the fiyers| cn ‘the Allied side, and that in the years since the war, this country has built up the business of cano fly.ng to a point where we lead the world. The cCanadian atmosphere seems to make for in this aerial carrige ! And, just as it is found advisable to decentralize the British air service, so consideration is being eciven to making Canada a country of ship supply. That British yards are good air targets has been made uncomfortably plain. If it is decided to build naval and merchant ships in Canada, the business of iron mininz and of steel making will be swiftly expanded. Our newly revealed resources. will be proved very handy indeed. And we have the men to man these ships after we have built them. Oour two oceans and our inland seas have bred men who fall as naturally to the life of the sea as do the men of England‘s coasts.

"The German Government has comâ€" plained of maltreatment of German minorities in foreign ‘countriese and ‘Macedonian conditions‘ reigning there. it may be seen from the publication of these papers ‘that under the present rezime conditions in Germany itself and the treatment accerded Germans are reminiscent, not of Macedonia, but of the Darkest Ages jof the history of man." The White Pager stressed the inhuâ€" man treatment of Jews and other minâ€" orities. It told of floggings; cramped quarters: overwork and lack of food in concentration camps. And it listed acâ€" counts of systematic looting of Jewish properties and beating of Jews after the killing in Paris of the German conâ€" sular official, Ernst yvom Rath, in Noâ€" veniser, 1938. "The United States consulâ€"general in Vienna was unable to bear the specâ€" tacle of storm trocpers beating crowds with rope ends and insisted upon police intervention, which eventuaily was granted, the report said. The White Paper consisted of 36 pages of affidavits and depositions deszcribing Nazi terrorism. It told the detailed stcry of treacherâ€" ous brutalities committed in German concentration camps; a story which surpasses the worst tales of the Spanâ€" ish Inquisition. "The attitude of the German Govâ€" ernment and the unscrupulous propaâ€" ganda they are spreading compels His Majesty‘s Government to publish these dccuments so the public both here and abrcad may be able to for itself," it said.

"I never heard of a case like this bâ€"fore but the attendant publicity it will receive should serve a good purpose in acquainting aliens, enemy or otherâ€" wise, with the law," said counsel for Fred Caoman, pleading for his client keâ€" fsre Mogistrate Atkinson in police court cn Tuesday.

Their shotguns they deft in their car. The police saw them and this charge was laid." Mr. Platus explained that Ooman apâ€" plied for citizenship papers in May, 1939. In September they were apâ€" proved by Judze J. T. B. Caron. Techâ€" nically, Oomga was still an alien until his citizenship received the consent of the Secretary of State, but morally he was a Canadian. The paper declared that British subâ€" jects, includinz a number of the emâ€" bassy staff, "were wantonly assaulted n the strects by uniformed SA. (Storm Troopers) men on duty."

P. Bickell, Registrar of Motor Vehimles. Bright yellow in coler, with black numerals and letters, they are expscted to be visible at creater distances and under far less favorable light conditions than those of the current year. Plack on yellow has long been reâ€" garded as the "ideal" combination of colors from a visual standpoint, and their choice for next year‘s markers was made cn the basis of this scientiâ€" fic truth. Letters used in the registraâ€" tion ser‘ial numbers have been left apâ€" proximately the same size as last year, but numerals have been made an inch longer and an eighth of an inch wider. This serves the double purpose of making the numerals more easily visâ€" ible and eliminating any possibility of confusing letters with numerals at a quick glance. Contrary ‘to last year‘s prazctice, when 1939 markers were made available to the public in November 1938, the new license plates will not go on sale until Jan. 1, 1940, Mr. Bickell announced. The ruling is subject to change.
