An Ontario agricultural authority told a re- presentative of the (iuardian that Ontario was having a banner year iii crops, uotivitlistantliiig the long spell of drought. The only crop that would not be bumper, he said, was the potato, and that was not a marketable oiic.

"For courage shown while lying for 12 hours partially suspended head down, and with a crushed leg, beneath a pile of debris, and sub- sequently the bravery and chccrluluess shown through two operations, including amputation of his leg." This was the citation which went with the award of the Coruwell Badge, Scoutintfs highest decoration for fortitude, to 15-year-old Boy Scout Lennard Golder of London. During one of the city's heaviest raids the boy, a mem- ber of his street fire-ivatching squad, had been active in smothering incendiary bombs. The attack’ slackened, and he returned to the shelter occupied by his family and their neighbours. when the shelter received a direct hit. During the I2 hours’ work required to release the lad from the beam holding him, and although fully conscious throughout, he never once complained.

_ Evidently Prime Minister King's right bower” in Quebec is becoming restless and critical of his administration. That stalwart organ, La Droit, right in his ovim city, punctures him thusly: Labor differences continue to be one of the great problems which the Federal Government has to face. These differences resulted iii strikes at Hamilton and Arvida, and they have not yet been settled though the men have re- turned to work. In Cape Breton, in spite of the threats of the Minister of Labor, there is still a "slmv-down" in production from the mines. \\'hy do the difficulties persist? Labor organizattioiis complain that the devisionsiof the Ministry of Labor at Ottawa are arbitrary and that the Gov- ernment l‘.£1S shown partiality in the choice of COllCillZli0fS_ In the execution of its labor policy, the Government ought to place Clllliltwyxirg and labor unions on the satue footing.

Iran

Iran's history is one of the oldest of antlqulty. Until 1906 its govern- ment was an absolute monarchy. but in that year Mohammad All shah signed a. constitution that. set up a national consultative body, and the present ruler, Rlza Shah Piihlevl, governs with the assist- unce of a Council of Ministers. Since his election in 1925 the coun- try has made immense strides.

In fifteen years the ancient and dangerous caravan trails have been largely supplanted by fairly good motor roads: a railroad has been constructed against the greatest of engineering obstacles; the preda- tory mountain tribes have been brought under control; manufac- tures have been introduced, tele- phone and electric lights brought to nearly all the larger towns, and a modern educatolnal system has been organized. Customs have been ‘Europeunlzei? even to the nation- al dress. A resurgence of national spirit. has revitalized the Iranian culture,

lTwo Sides To Losses

l The recent report by the British admiralty that. approximately 4,- 001,000 tons of Axis shlpbiniz have been sunk, captured or self-scuttled 1n the war to date indicates that there are two sides to the sea-raid- ing game. If correct. the figures show that. Germany and Italy have sutfered relatlvely far greater los- ses 1n merchant shipping than have the English. The latter started the war with about 21,000,000 tons

sequenby added about 8,000,000 tens of Norse, Dutch and Belgian

overrun. Up t0 July 1, the British had lost 4.601.120 tons by enemy iwtlon and probably 400.000 tons since. To this might properly be added the 1.490.017 tens of Allied ships sunk and the 1,004,843 tons ot neutral vessels. since many of those in both classes were of consider- able service to Britain. The aggregate, which errs. 1f at a1‘. on the side of disadvantage to Eng- land, 1s roughly 7.500.000 tons, or 25 8 per cent of the total of cargo carriers owned by imd available to Britain, not counting American ships or the large replacement ton- nage constructed since the war started.

Germany started the war with 4.482.622 tons of merchant shipping and Italy with 3,424,804 tons. Ac- gordltig to the aduilralty, the for- mer has lost 2,321,000 tons, or 51.7 per cent of lier total, replacements excluded, and Italy 1,533,000 Eons. or 44.7 per cent 0f hers. At the time of her collapse, France had [left something over 2,400,000 tons of commercial ships, some of which Brtiain got Others have un-

doubtedly been converted to Axis

use, but the bulk of them have tbeen inactive for either side. Axis replacements by new ship construc- tion have almost certainly been much smaller than Britain's. It can be argued that shipping losses are more serious to Britain than to the Axis, which has— theoretlcafy ~21 continent of laud resources to drnw upon. But Italy ln peacetlmels even less self-con- tinued than Britain some B0 per cent of her necessities being lin- ported. That Germany. to which foreign trade has always been 0t primary importance, has not lino inuch use for her merchant fleet. since the blockade was instituted seems contradicted by the fact that she has been using so much of lt. that more than half of her total has been destroyed.
