On June 24, 1919 there appeared. in the London Times a letter signed F, S. T. wherein the writer dwelt upon the country's exhaustion. following upon the sacrifices of war and the danger that by a natural reaction all classes might the submerged by wave of extravagance, and mater- ialism. The nation must be made to understand the gravity of the financial situation he said‘ and that love of country was better than love of money.

Mr. Bald- win's estate at that time was valued at £580,000.

MONTREAL, May l4.—"l ‘have ‘been talking Canada throughout Scotland ball winter invading the rural areas, speaking at cross roads, in village clubs, halls and

was often difficult through mist and rains alternating with sleet and snow. No matter how had the weather the audiences were ai- ways good; more often than not the meeting place, such as it was. was overcrowded, Such is the in- tcrest the people have in Canada, from Wtgtownshlre to the West- ern isles it was all the same." These were the introductory re- marks of Rev. George Adam, form- erly of the Emmanuel Church. Drumtnond Street on the occas- ion of his talk over ‘the radio from CNRM, the Canadian National wireless centre in Montreal, deliv- ere-d last night,

Mr. Adam had been in Scotland for some time addressing many meetings which had beenbrganlz- ed for the purpose of directing at- tention toward s Canada and of making known the opportunities available in ithe Dominion. it was for the purpose of explaining what had been done and to outline the situation in Scotland that Mr. Ad- am spoke through the microphone. ln continuitig the speaker said that there are so many Scottish [ICC/Die in the Dominion that the people they left behind are eager to learn all they cnn_oi‘ the coun- try thut has given hospitality and home ‘to ‘their own kith and kin.

At a further stage Mr. Adam said to his radio audience “The farms of Scotland are relatively so ‘few that, the possibility of a, ‘plonghm-an ‘becoming a farmer its remote indeed. not for lack of ab- lllity, but of opportunity.

Farming Population of Scotland Shows Great Interest in Agriculture Oppor- tunities of Canada -— Scotland Offers Few Advantages to Youthful Agricul-

son. Canada has room in her vast alluvial acreage for many thous- andsmore than are here now, that is certain, an dthere is a whole- some desire to enter into posses- sion on the part of hardy. indus- trious and thrifty ‘folk.

How ‘to satisfactorily relate the "

opportunity on ‘the one side with the desire on the other is the prob lem that faces governments and people alike. Moreover Canada WUiCOIIIES at present only the far- mer and the tarmhand. and right- ly, while many, such as i have said, are eager to come here. It must ‘be tinder-stood that there is a shortage of farm labor in Scot- land itself, although there is a sur plus of population in the country to judgeby vhe .large number of [tcflple who are unemployed. Am- 011g the latter classes tens of thou- sands strong, there ean be no reu- sonable doubt ‘but that there are thousands of youngsters who are good potential agrlculturists. This is the class which at ‘present it seems to ‘me offers the most fav- orabie recruiting ground for pro- curing Canadian settlers. Yet here again a problem arises of how to bring the British unemployed youth into such relation with Ca- nada's need as to be mutually ad- vantageous. This is clearly a mat- ter for the state, either over yond- cr or over here. or ‘both. The solu- tion seems to ‘be along the lines of organized training facilities that shall ‘he adequate enough to equip for the absorption 0t‘ these young people. But it will be at once ar- gued that with an agricultural la- bor shortage, how are these young fellows not absorbed at lhome, and this is a real question, ‘but the an- swer ls that while in Scotland the prospect never rises above wages. in Canada the way to propiétor-

shlp~ls wide open. This gives Ca- nada n tremendous advantage, for the dream of independence is viv- id in the soul of most folk."
