Canada’; War Financing g iii-i

As will be noted in today's advertising col- umns, the Dominion Government 1S P1111730"! t0 launch its first \\’ar Loan, the purpose being to provide money to carry on the war not only on the battlefields, but “all along the Economic Front." The importance of this latter ‘objective cannot too strongly be emphasized. All the re- sources of the nation are required, and Canada 5 financial commitments are such. as to make ab- solutely essential the success of its war loans-

Eygn before the war began, Canada was a long way from a balanced budget. 'l‘he sub- sequent situation is thus summed up in the year-end review of the Montreal Gazette: _

At the emergency session of Parliament in September the federal revenues for the current fiscal year were estimated at $495,000,000 ,0" the pre-war taxation basis. Total_ expenditures were placed at $651,000,000 including $100,000,- 000 of appropriations on war account but not including further losses on wheat marketing arid two items of capitalized defense expenditures. Hence, there was a prospective _deficit of at least $150,000,000. Certain special war taxes were imposed including a. 20 per cent surtax on income, thc expected proceeds of these lcvics being $21,000,000 up to the end of next Marclt

The new excise profits tax, applicable to earnings for the year 1940 and fiscal periods titling after March 3t, 1940, is of unknown productivity but the other fiscal changes are expected to produce $040000“) in i full Y“? There is reason to believe that the actual revenue for the year will exceed the estimated totals and may reach $540,000,000 while the expenditures will drop behind the September estimate, pos- sibly to as low as $t'i_’t),000,000. At the 581116 time the Liovcrtimcut is committed t0 a Coni- monivealth air-training project which will cost the Dominion some $48,000,000 up to next September in addition to a war outlay already estimated at $.$l5.000.000. and the total com- mitment nntlcr the air-training project will run tip to $350,000,000 ‘The present position is that Oll war account alone the country will be spend- ing something like one ntillion dollars per day, and theGovcriiinent had already assumed very hcavy peace time obligations.

'l'licrc is a limit to the amount that can be raised through taxation, parfictilarly when busi- ness is functioning tuidcr the restrictive in- fluence of war boards and control agencies of one kind and aiiothcr established by the Gov- ernment. llcuce the importance of the \\"ar Loan. The Finance Minister has already bor- rowed $200,000,000 from the Canadian cliar— tcred banks and has repatriated $91,000,000 of registered stocks sold in Great Britain, this to facilitate llritish purchases in Canada.

Supplies From Australia

Like Canada, Australia will send large vol- times of supplies to Lircat Britain during the war, Contracts have just been made for pur- chases totalling $350,000,000. Over one half of this amount is for wool alone—wool being to Australia what wheat is to Canada.

_Of Wheat and Flour, Britain is purchasing $28,000,000 from rhistralia, a mere fraction of the amount which will be obtained from this country. And while we shall provide large supplies of bacon, Australia will provide I. great quantity of butter, no less than $47,000,000 worth, but only about $4,000,000 of cheese.

Of lam-b, beef and veal, Australia will send Britain $38,000,000 worth, and she will also send $19,000,000 worth of sugar.

While minerals hold an important place in the supplies from Canada, they are a small item in Britain's imports from Australia. They include $10,500,000 \VOl‘ll'l of lead and $4,000,000 worth of zinc and copper.

If the supplies all reach Britain, they will en- lure a favorable balance of trade of $53,000,000, which will help to meet Australian payments total $1o3.000,ooo_ Australia will have to find ii way of financing the balance, and also the pur- chase of military stipplics in Britain.

Impressive Figures

The sea-power of Britain and France, so im- portant in achieving victory in the present struggle, is the stilijcct of an impressive article by Sir Archibald llurd iii the Montreal Star. Here are some of the figures quoted:

Vl/hen the war began, the British advantage in capital ships (battleships and battle cruisers), aircraft carriers, cruisers and destroyers was overwhelming:

Capital ships: Ili-itish i5. French 7, German

Aircraft carriers: British 6, French f, German none.

ln tilcn-of-ivai- all 37"]

i-lassrs the British

French nzivics have a superiority’ of about six

to one over Germany, which explains why there have been no engagements such as took place in the war of 1914-18. The enemy's battleships and cruisers, which are hiding in Kiel and Wil- helmshaven, are not likely to risk action in the North Sea and a state of inactivity, apart from restricted movements in the Baltic, is not cal- culated to raise the morale of officers or men. Theonly surface craft which have emerged so far are the “pocket battleships" Deutschlaiid and" Admiral Graf Spee- and one cruiser. The career of the Graf Spee is ignoniiiiiously ended and the careers of the others will be brought to an end in due course, as were the careers of the German raiders in the last war.

The position in regard to merchant shipping is as satisfactory. There is no purpose in com- paring in detail the tonnage, on the one hand under_the British and French flags, and on the other, under that of Germany, because on the outbreak of war the merchant ships of the enemy which were at sea sought safety in neutral ports rather than risk the voyage to a German port. Many of them have already been captured, and the remainder will share the same fate or will be sold to neutrals in thi- harbors in which they are hiding.

The German hopes rest in the submarine and the mine, the latter laid by stibinariues 0r drop- ped by parachutes from airplanes. These tactics met with considerable initial success, bttt have fallen far short of the enemy's aulicipations.

Responsibility for rearing children is more than ever the problem of tlic age. Boys and girls may take puppy love seriously, but par- ents and child experts llllllh it uicrcly a trausicn: thing. A study presciitcd bcfore the Oklahoma Academy of Science analyzed twenty-four child behavior problems. Child training experts and parents had been asked to rate each problem according t0 its iiiiport.'iiice as a factor in child training. All the parcuts and experts rated puppy love as the least important. The par- cnts placed these five problems in front rank: I, Stealing. 2. Iliitruthftiliicss. 3. Cheating. 4. Cructl_v. 5. Disobedience. The experts listed: I. Depression. 2. Yiisticialilcucss. 3. Fear. 4. Suspicion. 5. Cruelty.

The British Secretary of Mines, acting tinder orders of the British Ministry of 'l'ratisport, has prohibited the use of kerosene or paraffin either alone or mixed with alcohol or petrol, in

hicles excepted and then only when engaged on farm labor. The London 'l‘imcs thus explains the order: The order has been made because, since the introduction of the motor fuel ration- ing scheme, considerable quantities of kerosene (including mineral vaporizing oil) have been used either alone or mixed with motor spirit or road diesel oil as a fuel iii motor vehicles. Kero- sene is mainly used for domestic cooking, lieat- ing, and lighting, and as a fuel for certain types of agricultural tractors and engines, The“ “e substantial stocks in the country, hitt it is essen- tial in the national interest that they should be used only for such purposes. i- is it n-

While our Provincial Government still lags behind, Bermuda's Agriculture Board proposes to send a rcprcsctitative to investigate the market for packaged vegetables in Iiaslcrn Ca- nada and the New York art-a, lircction of a can» ziiiig plant is under consideration by the board, which hopes to scll packaged potatoes and onions in the hfaritimcs, the hltmtrcal are; and the United States. The island cxpccts large crops of both products this winter. A further ob- jective of the canning plant proposal is to make that British colony more sclf-stifficient, enab- ling it to stibstitttte its own tinucil goods for some of what it now imports. .-\ meeting consid- ering advisability of the caiincry proposal was told that Bermuda bought $180,000 worth of goods from Canada and $700,000 worth from the United States in September and October. Sir Stanley Spurling, member of the Legisla- ture and of the Trade Development Board, said the Home authorities had atlvisctl the island Government to prepare for a long ivar and every effort should be made to have Bermudaris eat local produce to conserve funds. If these ef- forts failctl, "then restrictive mcasttrcs must be

imposed on the <;|lt~ of importt-il products by local grocers." it trzts slalrtl iu a iucmoraudtitn from the Agriculture Board. ~ \

Herr Hlller has a solution for the problem of the peace of the world. He outlines it ln Meln Kampf. m; follows: "Whoever really desires in his heart the victory of the pacifist conception of the world must devote himself by every means to the conquest of the world by the Germans .....Tlie pacifist humanitarian idea will perhaps be excellent when the man suterior to all others shall have so con- quered and subjugated the world that he becomes its sole master."
