The difficulty 151ml oiilv tn dctcrtiiinc wliztt cffcct the Sirois recom- llwflilililtllli nu transportation are liltclyi to have, but llk‘lllilll_\' to discover what‘ they are.

Turning to "the following chapter” one finds that expcrlicnts such as lowcrcd rcgiouabralcs: pick-up and (lclivcry: facilitics, and adoption 0t agreed rzitcs are “cxprcssious of a hope once gciicrally hcld in railway circles and still cuter- taincd in some measure, that in the long run the superiority of railway services would be estab- lished." Putt an objective sitrvcy “is apt to sug- ucst that lllCFﬁ arc hopcs rather than predic- tions." The primc considcrzitiou, says the Rs- pnrt, must be “the general public interest." Now we are getting warm! We discover at the end of two more lcugtliy’ paragraphs, however. that “this Commission is not the body which must (lcfiue this gcucral public interest. lt is con- ccrucd rather with the question of where it is ilcsirable that the responsibility for defining this interest and the power to give effect to it should lie."

Two amusing sturles of a York- shire policeman were told by John Hilton. He is a stcut ixliceman.

This great. prosperous country of ours has been very slow to rea- lize that the threat of totalitarian arms and enslavcment 1c not an 1n- tcrmytloitcil bugabco, nor a propa- ganda device to provcke war for the enrichment of powerful bust- ness interests.

Amsiig the many crimes against humanity pcrpeLratsd by both the Nazi and the Fascist dictators, none is more vicious, more hor- rible than the crime commltied against the children of their own countries.

For they lnive, tn lltrral truth, token the spirit of childhood rut. of the hearts of the youngsters of Germany and of Italy.

Reglmentatlon has been applied never more harsliy against. any groups in either country than it has against. the boys and the girls.

Formed into troops and 0:‘- gamlzallons of “Hitler youth," with subsidiary bodies that mold and compress and suppress all ln- dlvlduallty, the children of’ Germany have been made info Little robots, miniature soldiers of the Reich, al- most, frcm babyhood.

Drilled ivltli tiny rifles, formed into companies and platoons and reglznent, taught soldlerlng al- most, from the cradle, the Black Shirts of Mussolinl have turned the normally joyous and children of Italy into serious little monsters, lcnnting, even before their lips have lost the lisp of infancy the cmel science of killing the vlclous philosophy of slaughter.

That the splrlt. of childhood stlll lives 1n Brlrridn, flint lt can never be quenched, is evidence enough that Hitler and Mussolini and all their hordes and all their me- chanlzed might are doomed t-o ultimate defeat and dissolution.

For a. nation cannot live with- out‘. the spirit of childhood, that prcciotis gift from God that, Nazi anti Fascist alike have done tlielr witless best to destroy.

And a. nation cannot die that; stlll hears the laughter of llttle children through all ltu woes.

Look Out l

(Halifax Chronicle)

If you have cscaped the flu, to date, look out! Its everywhere. ‘Those who do not come down with the measles are being lald 1o\v by the flu. Busiiicss houses are running with depleted staffs, schools carry 0n wit-h reduced classes, and people are missing from their daily haunts 1n many parts of the province.

The flu for the most part ls like that epidemic of "blltzkrleg" flu which struck last. year. It descends on the victim almost; ivltltout warn- ing. Within a few hours after the first. symptoms, the vlctlm ls in bed —and prepared to stay there. Many a. hale fellow has boasted to his less fortunate friends that he would not yield to a touch of flu, only to awake next morning with a dose that made ll, impossible to gel out of bed.

Flu ls like that. It ls not the sort of sickness one can pretend to ignore. It grips the vtcflm with a dreadful feelinsz of malaise. He is shaken by chills. his whole body aches, and his energy ls vanished. Like the common cold, flu is still pretty well incurable. The victim can do little more than relax and let, the attack run its course.

But there is plenty of evidence that ones chances of escaping the lllnrss arc best if one avoids tuifue fatigue. While flue is mi the ram- page, the prudent person will avoid late hours. He will be careful to ob- tnlu a good night's rest, fresh all". and such sunshine as the weather permits.

"Inc man who has allowcd his resistance to m down through fatigue or disslpzition provides the flu germs with a field day.

And if you think the precautions are more trouble than they are
