spring made his successful dash to
the polo from Cape Columbia. Nor-
wegians were the first to explore the southern and western coasts of Ellesmere Island. Using Nansen‘s
old polar ship, the Fram, Otto! Sverdrup winterod in 1900-1 at
Pram Havn and traveled by sled
to Axel Heberg and the Ringnes Islands, charting hundreds of miles of the coast line.
In view of the conflicting claims
that might have arisen from the activities of these uid other ex-
peditions, the Dominion Govern-
ment embarked in 1922 upon a program of following up formal claim to Ellesmere and to other
islands of the Arctic archipelago by
actual administration. An expedi-
tion was outfitted and a post, man-
ned by Royal Canadian Mounted Police, was established on Ellesmere
Island. Two years later another post was established on North Devon
Island, and u handful of mounted
police loft to carry out, largely in theory, the administration of the
island as the sine qua non of legal
ownership. The necessity of taking
supplies each year to these far- flung oubposts involves consider-
_able expense. Save for the police
igarrlsons, the islands are uninhab-
ited snd at present apparently are
of no value. Whether the outlay involved in complying with the
legal requirements is justified, lhl'0llEh the discovery of valuable
minerals or through use being made of the islands for some other
purpose, only the future will reveal.
OTHER DEPRESSI ONS
A correspondent writes to the New York Times: “Your readers
would like to know whether any example can be found in economic
history where any nation has
'€lT1¢'l‘8ed from s depression by
means of inflation, especially where
enormous Government expenditur- es are planned."
i; The New York paper replies as
lfollows: We may say that in the
common acceptance of the term "-illf'ilitl0Il." as srbitrary and arti-
ficial increase of the currency by iGovemment edict, no country has
fever emerged from a depression as a result of it. Depreciation of the
CUUYUCY. through such s process, has raised prices and, at the out- set, stimulated business for that
reason; but the subsequent reac-
tion in lcgitzmate industry was pro-
portionately violent. All history‘ testifies that the gainers from a._ forced-inflation period were the speciilators. None of our own nléllvr panic depressions-those which followed lass, lava, 1551 and
1837-was terminated through paper inflation and currency deprecla- tion. Agitation for such a recourse
in and out of Oongress, was urgent
during all of those periods, but was
nc-vcr successful. The depression
following 1873 virtually eiided with

A go:d citizen is ons who ob-
serves the laws of the community, works willingly to suppbrt himself and his family, and does his nhl-re in helping those less fortunate than himself.
But this some citizen develops
an ailment of some kind such as an ulcer of the stomach, rheurnatlsm, infected teeth, tonsils, or gall bladder, chronic constipation and gradually a change is seen in his disposiifoii, his outlook on life, his work, his family, in fact a change in everything in md about him.
He begins to flnd fault with the
laws of the community or the man- ner in which they are handled. He begins to find fault with his fei- lcw employees at office or factory, and "g‘rouches" about his wvrk. His sympathy for those who are without employment or in ill health goes down to the zero point.
He is no longer e good citizen. New you and I do not have to
look past ourselves to find that when we are we`l and enjoying good health, we are good cltiuns as to our community, our family, and our work.
Now just us an ailment will make
you a poor citizen for the time be- ing. so will it make others poor cztlzcns. Therefore as is the health of the crmmuiiity so will be the ‘quality of their citizenship.

Vifhen Smugglers ` Were Hanged
(National Revenue Review)
Ancient records of smuggling op-
erations in other lands, and in other times, and the measures taken to combat ihe'm, are full oi' exciting incidents, Smuggling in Europe reached its peak iri the 19th century and flourished well on into the 19th. In many of the coast towns and villages of England, especially along the English Chan- nel, public opinion was on the side of the law-breakers, who constit- uted a large part df their popula- tion. Many fishermen, farmers and general labourers, when business was slow, tried their hand at illicit trade. Tea, tobacco, brandy and rum formed the bulk of the cargoes run across the channel from France, and all kinds of sull- ing vessels were used, including sloops, smacks, luggers and yawis. The larger luggers, when heavily armed, sometimes proved more than a match for the King's cutters, and some embarrassing situations oc- curred. A story ls told how one day it smugglers luggcr sailed into an English boat to out cables and clear out on pain of being immed- iately sunk. Greatly outciassed, the Kings cutter deemed it prudent to sail quietly away. This was about 1770. Daily the smugglers grew more bold‘ and lawless, until honest traders despalred of any protection to business. One group ofsmugglers in particular, known as the Hawk- hurst gang, terrorir/ed a section of the country. To meet this danger law-aibiding citizens banded to- gether, calling thcmselves the Goudhurst Band of Militia. and tried to curb the activities of the gang. but to 'no avail. Finally the, Hawkhurst group committed an act that stirred the government into action. In attempting to nm 5, cargo consisting of 2 tons of tea and 39 casks of brandy and rum from France their cutter, The Three Brothers, had been seized by u Customs vessel and the contraband

An Estimate Of Hitler
flwall and Empirel' The rise of Adolph Hitler to sup-
reme p0WCi' in G€l'iIi&ily illd 501118 of the events that have followed that rise, have caused the whole world to ponder. what is the mem- ihg of these _developments for Germany and for the rest of Eur- ope? No one can yet say. Some light, however, may be thrown up- on the question by considering Hit- ler's origin, the means by which he obtained his hold on the_00untry, and the motives which appear W antmats him. In "Gemiany Puts the Clock Back," Mr. Edgar A. Mowrer traces the man from his obscuio Austrian origin to his -prwent peak/of authority ss Ger- man Chancellor with something like absolute power in his hands. The son of 1 minor customs ofiiciol little Adolph had a glib tongue, and easily became s ring-leader among his boyhood associates, Air- tistic in temperament, he desired to -'become a painter, md early came under the influence of “Wogncriua melodrama."
While still under twelve years of
age he fell in with s German pro- fessor who taught him to under- stand "the meaning of history" in the sense that he became I. fanat- ical German patriot. Whlle he was still in his teens his romantic eyes "saw through the swiridle of popu- lar government." He leamed to hate trades unions, loathe social- ism and despise Jews as the enemies of the Aryan race, the German people and “the aristocratic prin- ciple in nature." He was opposed to all softness, finaly believing that peace spells decay and that
everlasting struggle. It was only natural, therefore, when the World War broke out that he sank on his knees and thanked God. His coun- tenance wok on an expression of beatltude. Here was a chance to put his high-flown patriotism into practice. I-Ie dramatized himself. He sought danger and personal glory, He was decorated and twice wound-' ed, but he was only a. corporal when the Armistice arrived, and the German Empire icll about his
CBFH.
Much of his subsequent story is
told in his own biography entitled "My Struggle," published t/wo years ago. This work showed that after the war he turned to politics and formed a small group of young men and began to make speeches at every possible opportunity. He talked of biology and high politics, of the pollution of German blood by Jews and Socialists, In fanatical fashion he exalted the Nordic strain. Before long he came to be acknow- ledged as the most effective stump orator in the country. He set about “drumming Germany awake." Ari extreme cgotist, he was the Leader in capital letters. He talked of “My flag. and my government." He declared “All that I say and do is history." His stock continually. rose. A year ago, at the age of forty-three, he pictured himself as another Mussolini, A Bismarck, a Bonaparte, rl Cromwell, u' Ceasar. He would go down the centuries in such thunderous company, _ An unconvlnclng figure in black suit, white shirt, and inevitable rain coat: an unconvinclng face with lmpcrtinent nose, dark hair and Charlie Chaplin daib on the upper lip; eyes that plead for sym- vpsthy-utterly commonplace in sp- pesrance-this is the msn who has successfully matched himself with no less au adversary than the great god, Hindenburg.

armed themselves with swords and pistols and rode to Poole. Late that night they broke into the Cus- toms House, selzed the contraband tea and liquor, and 1-ode buck gpm- ly through the towns and villages, hailed on all sides as conquering heroes.
Shortly after this exploit a. pro-
clamation was issued, signed by the King, offering substantial rewards for the apprehension of the offend- ers. Popular sympathy, however, for the smugglers was such that no names were divulged. But a. further act of the Hawkhurst gang, this time of wanton cruelty, sealed its doom. Two men, one a Customs officer, sent to investigate the Cus- toms House hold-up, were waylaid by the smugglers, tortured and put to death. The authorities were now amused. The laxity of law enfoioe- ment had been demonstrated. Cus- toms and Excise officers were help- less to carry out their duties, un- protected as they were: magistrat- es dared. not convict. The Commis- sion of Customs at london pro- claimed a reward of 500 pounds for the capture of members of the Hswkhurst gang, and adequate protection was promised those un- dertaking the trials. Results quick- ly followed. Several of the smug- glers were tsken, tried and execut- ed, and their bodies hung in chains st conspicuous points on the coast and highways. By 1749 the Hawk- hurst gong was entirely broken up,
