His argument is that “England's influence is" pronounced iti the Scatt- dinaviatt countries, and this influence is nut democratic but reactionary. It possibly may have inspired the Finnish hostilities," he adds, in con- tradiction to the well-known facts, “which sitn- ply tncans that Russia is fighting a defensive war." This amazing cottclusioti t1i11st be re- corded as another outstanding triumph for Bol- shevist propaganda.

But here lssome- thing of unlimited value which could be derived from the proced- utvr, namely that out" cattdxdaws not only pledge themselves but secure the pledges or tnen- leaders to do sontethtttg definite about our feed prices whether caused by m high a freight rate, too great. a middle pro- fit. or both.

Our Island r; well as at, least part of the Marttintes has always been at a great. disadvantage 111 tnrs way, but now with out" pegged products and soaring Imports we are placed tn fmpossfble circumstances. So that instead of being an afd to Canad- ian wartime industrial accomplish- ment we are planed tn an awkward and loosing condition. tvlueh d1- rectly or indir-rctly affects evcty cltzett 0f this Province.
