land has no Apprenticeship Act, and therefore no arrangements could be made for the training of Island veterans as apprentices. Such an implica- tion is wholly erroneous. An Apprenticeship Act was passcd at the i944 session of our Legis- lature, and lvhilc it contains no specific reference to war veterans there is no reason why anyone over the age of sixteen years should not be eligible for training.

Unfortunately however, our Act is not yet in force. 1t must be proclaimed by order-in- council, and this has not been done. We under- stand that it will very shortly be proclaimed, which is a horse of a different colour.

Attention to this matter was drawn by the Canadian Legion in a brief presented to the Royal Commission on .Veterans Quamicalimls which sat here a fcw vceeks ago. Noting that the legislation had not been made effective by order- in-council, the brief went on to say: “This Act applies to certain designated building trades and provision is made for inclusion Of others. We suggest that provision should be made for ac- celeration of apprenticeship contracts whereby service personnel who have had trade training could gct credit for the training they have re- Ceivcd."

The Act pf0vld€S for the appointment of a provincial apprenticeship committee of fivc members to serve without remuneration, also a director of apprenticeship. It provides also for local apprenticeship committees to act in an ad- visory capacity in their respective areas.

Provision is made for the payment “out of such funds as may from time to time be avail- able for that purpose, of any bonus to which an employer may bccome entitled tinder the regula- tions." \-Vbeu the bill was before the Legisla- ture it was noted by the Opposition that nothing had been pmvitlctl in the estimates for this pur- pose. Premier Jones’ reply was that the Prov- ince was waiting to complete negotiations with the Dominion Department of Labour.

That was a year and a half ago. Now at long 1m: negotiations have been completed and the .\ct will very shortly be put into effect; bu! it is hard to understand the unconscionable dc- lay. lii the report above quoted, the Depart- mciit m‘ Labour ignores the existence of any Apprenticeship Act on our statutes. The re- port goes on t0 say that arrangements made by other provinces include “the granting of credits to veterans of trade experience acquired, either prior to enlistment or during their periods of service." This is in accord with the Legion rc- qucst, and no (loubt will be incorporated in the belated arrangements with this Province.

It is to be hoped this measure will prove as sgrvicoiiblo as Premier Jones anticipated when he introduced it in the Ilotisc. and that there Wlll be no further (lclay in putting it into 0p- eration.

Whey And Penicillin

Among tlic iliuiiy activities of the Agricul- tural Supplies Board during the l2 months end- ed March 3i, i945, was the continued support give to the marketing of whey for the manu- facture of the new tlrtig, penicillin.

The latest report of the Board covering the period, April I, 1944, to March 31, 1945, states the demand for whey for the production of milk sugar to be used in preparation 0f peni- cillin incrcasctl. lllaiiufacttircrs of the drug have found that by increasing the quantity of milk sugar, a greater yield of penicillin is obtained. In addition the added su ar has a stimulating ef- fect on the patient and it also increases the keep- ing quality of the penicillin.

During the l2 month period under review about i,5oo farmers in Ontario and Quebec pro- vided 65,ooo,ooo pounds of whey for the manu- facture of the milk sugar and whey powder. Of this quantity of whey, about 45,000,000 Pillilld! were processed in New York State, close to the Canadian border, and 20,000,000 were processed in Canada. About 400 tons of milk sugar were used in the manufacture of penicillin in Canada and r,5oo tons of whey powder ‘were made available for poultry and livestock feeds. Of the whey processed in the United States practically all of llic whey powder was returned to Can- ads and large quantities of milk sugar were also made available t0 Canadian manufacturers of

Australian champagne manufacturers arc suffering a headache which has HOHCIOf the usual joyous antecedents of a hang-over, says a Sydney Morning Herald correspondent. Thcy cannot take advantage of the enormously increased de- mand for their wine, or hope to profit by a greatly expanded post-war market overseas. Be- sides quota restrictions on sales and shortage of skilled labor, the champagne maker now faces the serious situation created by bad seasons in every grape-growing district in Australia. Since the war the consumption of Australian cham- pagne has doubled owing chiefly to the thous- ands of Americans who were open-handed hosts, industrial workers no longer on beer incomes, and the cessation of imports for three years. N0 one can estimate the demand, but the public thirst for champagne seems inexhaustible. At first sight it may appear that a lack of sparkle at formal functions through shortage of the most effectivemeans of breaking down Anglo-Saxon reserve is only a minor tragedy, but the shortage of wines for export, if sales of wool overseas fall off as many expect, will be felt indirectly by even the soberest citizen. Enemy occupation eliminated France as a competitive exporter, and left the markets in India, the Ditch Indies, New Zealand, and the Pacific Islands to Australia. Japanese l- nquests, of course, greatly narrowed this field. But the Pacific, Great Britain and

The vy apparently has decided to set up a huge base at Okinawa. The island which was consecnated by so much blood of United States fighters ls strateg- ically placed. Planes and ships based there could command the coast of all East Asia. If we oori- tlnue proper watch over a defeated enemy we do not: need Okinawa against Japan. The Philippines give us protection from any pos- sible Asiatic foe. May not the Rus- sians then look upon an American base at Okinawa as a robable threat to them? Could we just- lfled. after taking Okinawa, in ob- jectlrig to a Russian baseat. say, Big Dlomede Island in Bering Stralt?—Mlnneapolls Star Journal.

Offlolaldom Ia a pretty inveter- ate killer of romantic thou t, but the Office of Price Admin stratlon in Washington has outdone itself, says The Hamilton Spectator. Put- ting a ceiling on "hula. girls" with scant regard for popular ideas about the South Sea Islands and an icy contempt for dreamers-up of Hollywood plots. the O.P.A. de- fines its subject thus: “A hul girl means any female posing for com ensatlon or profit for a direct, posllve photograph, whether paid by the photographer or the silb- ject, 0t‘ the photograph." We hope at least that the 0.P.A, will stay out of the travel pewter business.

The suggestion offered from some sources that is "demo- cratic" for every community to be allowed to make its own choice in the matter (of daylight saving) is absurdly specious. If the Dominion were to adopt that principle, there might soon result complete chaos as to time. After all, the much vaunted "Standard" variety ls an- tlrely artificial and arbitrary and has nothing natural about it If every place on the map were to discard “Standard” and “demo- cratlcally" devise its own clocking, the Parliament of Canada would soon ‘rave to alter the national title to “the Dominion of Bedlam".
