"Take British war industry.‘ A Nazi gaulei- ter placed in charge of British production would be rendered insane in 24 hours. The aircraft iii- dustry, for instance, is the product of a hundred thousand little ivorl-zsliops scattered all over fhl island. Vital parts are made in country garages and city cellars, each employing two ovthree men. How they are controlled and co-ordinated in something not even the Britisher can explain. But somehow they all, work in concert. It is the prime example of British muddling through to excellent purpose. Given all the pieces of this jigsaw puzzle, a Nazi gauleiter couldn't put them together. Only a sccriiingly indolent Eng- lishman, sitting at his desk while his secretary pours tea, manages to make the system work.

"Of the British system of social order and justice, the only possible explanation is I066 and all that. Nobody knows. Nothing is writ- ten dO\‘\’_l'l. But it ivorks."

Forest Fires In Canada

The Department of Mines and Resoumes at Ottawa reports that the forest fire season of 194.2 was fortunately a rather favorable one. The total cost and damage was $3,550,181, com- pared with an annual average for the previous io years of $5,378,122. The total area burned over was 1,838,471 acres, compared with an annual average of 2,428,659 acres for the pre- vious decade. I

The number of fires was less than the aver- age for the previous decade in all provinces.

visiting the forests as a result of reduced tour- ist travel no doubt accounted for this reduction in the number of fires. However, in spite of the reduced number of fires, British Columbia, Saskatcheivan and Nova Scotiavreported the area burned and the cost plus damage to be very considerably above normal. This may be the re- sult of a reduction in skilled staff and a short- age of man-power for fire-fighting due to the war-effort.

Of all forest fires during 1941 in Canada 2t per cent were caused by lightning and 79 per cent by human carelessness. This is a rather sad commentary in the face of the scarcity of men to fight fire and the importance of Canada's forests to the war effort. Such carelessness destroys valuable timber needed in the war ef- fort; ruins recreation spots which the boys over- seas have every right to expect to be preserved for their return; may so fill the air with smoke iiaze as to seriously impede air travel and the operation of air-training schools, and may rc- quire men engaged on war work to lay down their tools to fight fire.

Let everyone whoyhas occasion to enter the forest this year seriously consider the responsi- bility which rests upon him to make absolutely sure he does not start a forest fire ivitli cigar- ettes. matches, camp-fires or other means. Re- member-furest fires help the enemy.

Speaking on a motion in the House to set up a radio committee, Rev. E. G. Hansell (N. D., Macleod) said that not everything spoken of as humorous in programs was humorous to him. "l do not admit to being backward as a judge of humor," he cpiitinued. “Some things ivliicli arc called humorous are tremendously ‘corny’ to me." Mr. G. T. Fulford (Lib., Leeds): “What docs that mean—‘corny’.” Mr. Hansell: “If my honorable friend asks me ivliat is the meaning of 'c0rny' I assume he has not been running with the people who can tell him what it means. for if he had he would have heard the word a good many times. It is one of those words which tit a situation without being explained.”

Furs from all parts of British Columbia, the far north and the sub Arctic, are bringing the ‘highest prices on the continent, said buyers from New York, Montreal and Western Canada in Vancouver. Prices of most furs are double last year's figures. The sharp upswing was attri- lititcd to ceiling prices imposed in the United Szates. Officials of one auction market state that beavers, muskrats, mink, squirrels and tim- ber wolves are bringing the highest prices in current sales since the boom days of I920. ln last week's auctions the prices of beaver skins were up 25 per cent; minks, up 15 per cent; red foxes, 2o per cent; squirrel 25 per cent; ermine, 50 per cent; muskrats, 20 per cent.

Dle of Canada as well as for our flghtlng men over there, if this par. ﬂcllllll‘ Prophecy about the Canadian Active Service force had been autli. orltatlvely discouraged by our re- sponsible authorities.

For it must: seem w anybody who

tries to use common sense about it and who has watched the progress of the war that ft would hardly make good sense w put inn; the vanguard of what may well be the decisive action of this war" an army which has had racticall no battle experience at al. And t at, unless you except the du-blus sortie of Dicppe. 1s exactly the position of the Canadian Army overseas. And lt Ls no use tn fly off at. an emotional angle at the mention of this business and to pretend that what ls said here ls a reflection upon our fighting men. It ts. of course, nothing of the sort.

It ls only to say that in this war. as ln every war. soldiers have to team hhelr business on the Job and our Canadians are no more exempt from that necessity than any other of the men who are fighting our battles for us.

Nor has this comment nnythlniz to do with the reasons. whatever tlhey have been. which have determined that the Canadian Anny overseas should be held in ‘Britten for the last three years. while hundreds of thousands of other soldiers of the British Commonwealth have been

.war tn Africa and elsewhere. Those reasons may have been ini- eioceptlonable ln every way and they my still be operative. But once more it does not make sense to say that an army that. has been conspic- uously denied battle experience on my active fighting front ls to be wnsplcuously chosen to lead the way in what may well be the most difficult and deadly battle of all the war.
