DRASTIC MEASURES NEEDED } in the United States, With such a chance for orry where worry might do some good if it were Eud enough ‘and strong enough, it is difficult to understand the need for worry about the affair across the line. . It is true that some United States hewspapers devoted much space to the discussion of the case of the independent Canadian oil conâ€" 'cern But that fact is not particularly helpful. Indeed on the contrary, it is only the more disâ€" quiet.ing If United States newspapers do iall their worrymg about an independent Canadian oil comâ€" p»any, and Canadian newspapers display all their anxiety in regard to the Standard Oil Company in the United States, the war effort gets little benefit. 'l‘he lesson in both cases, however, is the same, ;lamely, that the most drastic measures should be insisted upon to see to it that neither enemies at home or abroad, nor the friends of enemies at home or elsewhere, should be permitted to delay m' handicap the war effort when men are fighting u,@,lue and death struggle for all that real men old dear. ‘ The Ontario Prospectors‘ and Developers‘ Assocâ€" jation has a clever and original plan for helping 6 left to the press of the United States. f ,,,da has its own problems much nearer home. It will be recalled that at the time of the first reâ€" ports of a possible gasoline shortage an indepenâ€" dent oil company came forward with a plan whereâ€" by a part of that shortage would be avoided. The independent oil company asked no favours and no assistance. All the independent oil company reâ€" quired wias permission to bring in the oil. _ It agreed to see about the supply and the securing of the transportatiou. At first permission for imâ€" port to Canada was given, but later this was canâ€" celled. So far there has been no proper explana< tion of the final attitude of the government in this matter. The people have been left to imiagine rea-: sons and causes, and those that have been pre- sented have been no more complimentary than the case stated against the Standard Oil Company _ At the present time Canadian newspapers are QMt excited over a story coming from Washâ€" C. This is a tale to the effect that some time ago the Standard Oil Company agreed to deâ€" tailed plans to hold working connections with a great German chemical trust, even in. thne event of the United States entering the war‘ against the Nazis, andâ€"the the Standard Oil corporation also hanided over to the Germans an exclusive synthetic rubber process, while at the same time this subâ€" stitute for rubber was withheld from the United States. According to the evidence presented to the United States Senate, the Standard Oil Comâ€" pany turned over its synthetic rubber process to the Germans in return for patent concessions on oil and synthetic gasoline. The result of these poliâ€" cies of the Standard Oil has been to seriously hanâ€" dicap and delay the war effort of the United Btates. All thoughtful people willâ€"agree that, if the facts are as stated, the United States should take the most drastic measures to remedy the sitâ€" uation. There are people who are ready to accept the formula that "corporations have no souls," but this war is a matter of life and cCeath for the free peoples of the world and no one should be willing to concur to the thought that incorporated comâ€" panies have no loyalty. The war has seen a great many of the largest corporations in. Britain, the United States and Canada display a cheering patâ€" triotism. If there are any companies that lack this loyalty, then the plan should be to see that such companies are not allowed toâ€"continue. Neiâ€" ther occasional corporations nor a few individuals should be. permitted to endanger or curtail the national defence, While all this is true, Canadian newspapers skould not worry too much about it.

E RED CROSS" In Canada there is a desire for equality of serâ€" vice, but there is no such assurance of equality of sacrifice. There are all sorts of inconveniences and burdens and ration cards on all sorts of things and in all sorts of places, but it looks like Christâ€" mas cheer in Ottawa and some other favoured places. Canada has given a lead and ‘an example in rationing and regulating on this continent. It would all be accepted with the greatest cheerfulâ€" ness if it were not for the fact that the burdens have not been fairly apportioned. Sugar has been rationed here, the tires have been swiped from the baby‘s buggy, the frills taken from the ladies‘ frocks and poor man will sooun only have only the one pair of pants to his name and no cuffs on that one pair of pants. During the glorious spring days of this week one local man was tempted to exâ€" claim:â€" ‘"Thank the Lord. Ottawa can t ration the weather." That lad spoke out of turn. Ottawa already has changed the clock. With the comâ€" placent and subservient majority at Ottawa, the part of a part of a party can ration anything exâ€" cept the salaries and perquisites,.of the members of parnament That would be too much even at Ottawa where everything appears to be swallowed, except petty politics. In Great Britain practically everything is raâ€" tioned everywhere, and everybody is satisfied and everything is satisfactory for the duration of the war. In Britain they are playing no favourites either in places or persons. From royalty down the game is fairly played. Indeed, the King and Queen set the example in observing the rationing restrictionsâ€"regulations from which they could be exempt if they but wished. And Londonâ€"the heart of the Empireâ€"has felt the force of rationâ€" ing and all the other burdens of the wiarâ€"more than the humbler places.. But in Britain there is a National, governmentâ€"there is equality of sacriâ€" fice, equality of responsibility. There is no ground for the suspicion that one part of the country or one part of the people suffer for the advantage of a part of ‘a part of a party machine. Here, again, there may be some who have valuâ€" able gold ore specimens that were not ‘acquired so legitimately as the others referred to. Perhaps, a man working at one of the mines could not resist the temptation to take home a few samples of rich gold ore. ~After the gold ore had been taken, the man may have realized thiat he had been guilty of a crime in appropriating what did not belong to him, but there did not seem to be anything to do about the matter except keep the gold ore samâ€" ples hidden. There are more than a few samples of rich gold ore hidden in cellars and attics anc buried in backyards. Here is a chance to remove all danger from the illegallyâ€"held gold ore. Why not ship it to the Ontario Prospectors‘ and Develâ€" opers‘ Association, 1706 Royal Bank Building, Toâ€" ronto? That would be an ideal way to free a conâ€" science and help a most worthy cause. Even the highâ€"graders might take advantage of this planâ€" "Gold for the Red Cross".. It would be the sort of jJoke that the officers of the law would enjoy, if they knew the facts, if highâ€"grade gold were shippâ€" ed away in the manner suggested and so when they raided the dawelling place of some suspect, they could find no evidence to substantiate their suspicions. In the event of rich gold ore being shipped toi Toronto it is not likely anyone would make too close enquiries in the matter if the Red: Cross were to benefit and no one else were to sufâ€" fer from the transaction. Let the mining men, the prospectors, the promoters, the general public, ship all the rich gold ore samples that are. kept without any.particular valuable advantage to any- one, and that most worthy of causesâ€"the Red Crossâ€"would have a considerable amount of "new money‘" to carry on the work that it is doing with such skill and success. expressed the wonder he felt on some occasions as ‘serving of steel by rationing the hair on a man‘s to why he carted round with him ail these weighty face.

One of the best topical jokes of the moment was in a moving picture shown here last week. A Hollywood director started out with a dime as his only money and a disreputable old suit as his main item of apparel. The idea was to "tramp‘" the country and see‘life as it is. Soon he runs into difâ€" ficulty with the law, and to save himself, he disâ€" closes his real identity to the police. A sarcastic police sergeant looks over his dilapidated suit and his old worn shoes. "If you are a rich motion picâ€" ture director," he asks, "why the old clothes?" "I have just paid my income tax for this year!" was the reply. A certain or uncertain Toronto newspaper tells in a recent issue of a young lady poet "joining the civil surface." "Civil service" may be a misâ€" nomer, for there‘s not so much service in it but "civil surface" is no great improvement, as the civility isn‘t evident on the surface.
