Batik President Optimistic

l\'C\‘l€\\'l|IE the trust half ccntttry 0f Catt- adian achicvetnent industrially and otherwise, Mr. Morris W. Wilson, president of the Royal Bank of Cattvrlzt finds good ground for optitn- ism as to the fntnrc. .\ll that is needed, he stig- gcsts, is the “trupttlsire force" t0 carry on. Speaking at the 77th annual general meeting of the Barrios shareholders, he painted an in- spiring picture. of our Opportunities for further progress and development. Some people per- Jist in saying, “Times are goingmto be hard." This, Mr. Wilson argued, is no occasion for thoughts 0f failure. Success in either pioneer- ing or in organizing after a great struggle de- mands psychological qualities “\Vc have the things needcrl- raw tiiaterialls, skill, organizing ability, and scientific knowledge. \\'e need pro- pulsive force. This is not a matter of speeches and paper ideas. People have the quality in themselves. It is by their own will and effort that advancement is made. I refuse to believe that after so long-cotttintted slow but sure pro- gress mankind will allow itself to be annihilat- ed by atomic bombs, or to he enfcebled by long drawn out decay. or paralyzed by disputes which ruin international trade and co-operation. This country should have no doubt 0f itself or of the contribution it. can make to the world." The facts a11d figures cited by l\Ir. Wilson in the summary of his address appearing elsewhere in today's issue amply substantiate this state- ment.

The Barth's record balance sheet, showing assets at a new high level, was reviewed by the general manager, Mr. janzcs hIuir who em- phasized among other things the wider field of service i11 loans to firms and individuals which is being developed.

Peace For China

The official ending of China’s civil war, if indeed it has ended with Sunday's midnight cease-fire deadline, tnarks an important stride tuwurd ticace, order, and stable government in that war-scarred country of over 400,000,000 people. Thc “cease fire" order was issued last. week after a quickly stnnnioncd meeting, which was attcttdcd by representatives of the Chiang Kai-Slick National Ilovcrtttnent a11d of the Communist muvetnettt, as well as by General Marshall, United States liravoy to China, The order giving effect to the truce was signed pintlyt by I’1'c.~xitlc11t (fltiang Kai-Slick and Mao

All troop movcnieztls on both sides have been ord- ercd to Civflac‘, excepting only the transporta- tion of (21111-1-111110111 forces into and within hlattclttzrizt 971-‘ the rcstrrratiott of Chinese auth- ority in that "vast region which had been in the ltatuls of the lLpJIlICSC {Ind their puppets for ncarlv 13 wars.

The Cotntuttttists thus become a political group within the law. and, it may be assumed will soon lie admitted to adequate representa- tion in the gorerntnctu of China. This should be all to thr- good, because it signalizes a trend toward tiatiatvtl uttity and broadly-based. free Institutions. The boycotting of Communism in lo vast a cnttntrv as China was impossible. and indeed lttttlcsirltltle cveti If possible. if dem- iocracy as knmvn in the Western \\t'nrld was to ‘become, as Chi-mg Kai-Slick has always claim- M, the goal of a free and independent China.

Evidently all is going well with the pre- paratory economic Committee of the Domin- ion-Provincial Lonference.

Nominations will soon be called for in connection with the Citv Council election. Though numerous names have been Inentioned, and one complete slate advertised, nothing is definitely known of the number of contests that will take place. ln years past the retiring Mayor and City Council used to .-all a public meeting in the Market Hall, give an account of their stewardship, and call for notitinutiotts, or n:- nottiinations, and have the prospective cat1di- dates express their views. Why not return to that practice, which, after all, is the best way

personally before the electors. Anyway, the retiring Mayor a11d Council are i11 duty bound to give an account of their stewardship.

A new system of mobile radio-telephony having the advantage of not beinl! ¢°l1llecl¢d with fixed stations, has been perfected by the British Home Office. The system, which op- erates on very short waves. was originally de- signed for use in police cars patrolling large towns, and 1t has proved very satisfactory. It has now been improved, enabling the crew and passengers in an aircraft to be in radio-tele- phone contact at all times with terminal air- ports at any distance. It is now announced that this same system is to be used in trains also, to enable passengers to hold important long-distance conversations during their iour- ney.

Education‘ And Culture

_ virtually synonymous; the educated person brought up on the “Wlmnnltl ", under lklled and dIIcI Ilned In- struction, could hardly all to g‘ evldence of refined tastes. In then days "culture." as It was f men- ly understood, Is not a cons rleru- tlon of flrst Importance. for a large percentage of those entrust- ed wlt the admlnlstratfon of edu- cational affairs In this rovlnce. The tendency Is all for smpilflca- tlon, bringing down the standards to the level of the “average" 6r lass than average Intelligence. Whenever It Is thought that the curriculum Is overburdened, the flrst things to be jettisoned _are what mlght be termed the graces of educatlon, regarded as so much superfluous baggage by "practical- mnded" people who, up mntly, up raise the worth of earnlng xo eIy byltsdollur and cents value. It seems to such almost InIquItoIu that precious time should be "wast- ed? by school pllplls In attempting to master the intricacies of foreign languages when It is, foun night impossible to teach them the elements of their own native tongue. The attack of these peda- golc ‘ ‘ ‘- was originally dI- rected to the so-ealled "dead" Ian- guages, but now, emboldened by successH-they are making vigorous onslaughts on thg Ilvlng languages as well.

The Royal Commission on Edu- catlon for Ontario, now sitttnrz In Toronto, was told or Tuesday by Dr. C. O. Goldrlng, director of schools for the Toronto Boar-I of Illducation, that, in his nplnlun, the teachlng of French was started too early In the high schools. If he had his way, It would not be taught "untII specialized courses start In the higher grades." Educa- tIon shouldbs "stream-lined," and he suggested as the “core" for a suitable syllabus for grade nine- "English, science, social study, a certain amount, of mathematics and physical educatlon." Late: oh the student, If he or she so de- sired might consider the advisabil- Ity of taking on “arts" but It should be permissible for any deslrlng to enter a unlverslty to do _ u, however Ill prepared for e courses required In those Institu- tions. "A pupil who enters the Industrial coursg (In high school) and successfully completes four years of study, may nevertheless decide, somewhat belatedly," he explains, “that he wishes to enter arts, forestry, medicine or dentfst- ry." Such a pupil wIIl have IIttIe reason to thank the stream-Ilnlng reformers for putting hlm under the formidable handlcsp of start- Ing from scratch In subjects In which considerable progress might have been attained even under the present system, with all Its Inade- quacles.

Dr. Goldrfng complains that "many children taught French In our schools never use It." Which II, undoubtedly, true to a 11281102 though even the smarter-In: acqufr- ed by the dullelt and most Inst- tentlve I: better than nothing and should come uI at times. But the remedy for thls condition 1| not to drop French from the time-table, but Io Inctnrove methods of Instruction. IJr. Idrlng r-ght- Iy Insists on n-Iequnte Instruction In Englfsh, say-ng: “We mus: be able to express ourselves verbally 11nd In wrI Ing." But a proper un- derstandlnf of‘ “our mother ton- gue" Impl e11 at Ieut a rudimen- tary knowledge-of other languages, Inc udlng the ueglocted "chutes."

As a counterbalance to Dr. O rlng‘: arguments was the, orelented by Provost Seeley, Trinity College, Toronto, who de-

tural subjects In the schools. The commission I| thul culled upon to reconcile two divergent po t: of vtew and It I: to be helped that It wlII not be carrled away wIth a delfre to be ultra "modernfutlc" In the verdict at. which It srrlves.
