War Materials For Japan

Recent Japariese air raids on British vessels in the Yzingtse l\‘iver are believed by the British What is

the Japanese invaders of China to discredit Bri- fish influence in the Far East. This raises an important point so far as Canada is cori-:erne.l. According to the current issue of the Corri- mercial Intelligence journal, there was air in- :rc.1se of i2.i per cent in our export trade to Japan for the first three months of 193‘) 0\'C|‘ zhe t‘Ul‘rt's])tilllllllg period last year. Ores and lll('l(llS nlfllifl up the bulk of this trade but, ac- rordimz to the ptililicatioii cited, it is not possible to review at length or in a corriprelierisiie man- ner the import trade from Canada as the statis- tics covering these riiat-:ri:ils are not now lSSll\'Cl in jzipari. Conseqtienily (':iii;i«l:i’s position as a ' ipplier of such items as iiickcl, lead, aluminium. zinc, copper and zisliemis in relation to other supplying eonritries cannot be slmwn.

There is. limv.-rt-r, a very significaiit state- ment in the Tiriile .\':cret:ir_v's report. \‘\'e quote: “The policy of the japaricse Govern- ment is, S])L‘2ll\'ill_;’ gt-iicrally, to permit the im- Pgr,-;,,;,,n of 1',m.~:- ggotrds which are classed as essentizil for illllmrtltllt industries and raw mat- erials for expr rt gumls. This policy is based on the ricct-ssitv to coriserre so far as possible for- eign excliarigt-, and it riiust be anticipated that imports will he riqitlly controlled by ineans 0! the import control legislation or the Foreign Ex- clraiige Control Law, at least until the conclus- ion of hostilities in Cliiua. Consequently Can- adian 5-xi)()r[Cr5 of ;_vo3tls which do not come into the class. of esseritial and urgently needed coni- moditics may expect little if any business in the iriezrntiiiie." _

In'connection with the celelrration of the Prime Mini.-ter's 20th arniiversary as leader of his Party, it is interesting to recall his last visit here as nicniher for Prince as given in The Canadian Annual Review of 1020: “A luncheon was tendered him with too rt-pi-est-ntative men present including the Premier (Bell) and mem- bers of the Legislature and he atniounced the intention to Contest North York at the next elec- tion; at Suninicrside he held a conference with his constituents and received delegates from vari- ous parfs of the lsland lllilhlng requests for a branch line of railivzrys, (lrrdging of ild7f)UlH‘S and other improvcriients, all of which he prom- ised’ to bring to the attention of the Govern- ment." .\luch water has passed tliroiigh the llillsboro Bridge since then. and the ex—membcr for Prince has been l‘rinir: .\linister in 1921, I926, ll_)3O and 1935 and yet we are as far for- ward with harbour improvenients as we were

Better Opportunities In Canada

Ynuiig doctors and other graduates in the professioiis receiving their degrees this summer have the assurance of the education branch, Do- minion Bureau of Statistics, that there is no foundation for the belief that universities are turning out too many professional men and wo- men. In its biennial survey of higher educa- tion, in which records of 17 years since i920 were analysed, it was found that “the tendency of post—war years and even longer has been to- wards a reduction in the proportion of d0Ct0lS. lawyers and clergymen in the Canadian popula- tion." Referring to the opinion that many Can- adian medical graduates go to the United States the survey states. ‘‘In 1931 there were only 798 persons per doctor as compared with 1,034 now in Canada. Potential clientele is larger here and one would expect it would be easier for the young doctor to establish himself here. ‘In Can- adian cities of more than 30.000 population there is one doctor for every 644 pe0plCi outside the cities only one for 1.350.”

When They Chose Mr. King

The 20th anniversary of Mr_ King’: leader- ship of the Liberal party recalls to I writer in the Hamillon Spectator the convention of Aug- ust 1919 at which Mr. King was chosen. The organizer of it was Charlie Murphy, former Secretary of State, later to be Postmaster-Gem eral, and finally to go to the Senate. His gifts included a rare capacity for organization. Noth- ing about the convention was overlooked. There was even discussion as to the music, appropriate for the opening salvo, when Premiers Murray and Gouin were to stalk down the long aisle and take the chairs as presiding officers. Some were for the ordinary, patriotic airs. Others, of the more crusading type, favoured that great battle march, Onward Christian Soldiers. Mur-

phy, the old maestro, promptly rejected that He would coiintenanee no such profane His personal selection of a piece was "Hail! Hail!

Church is to preach the Gospel in its purity. Ministers are bound to this by their ordination vows. To coiiipronrise where Truth is concern- ed, to be silent wlfeii danger seems to threaten, to accept outward control of the Church by dis- believers, means attaching more importance to human calculations than to God's promises and His power. This, and this only, would mean the end of the Christian Cliurch.” Dr. Nie- riioellcr, as the great champion of this view, must remain in solitary confinement. There seems no hope of his release because he refuses- to bow the knee to Hitler. But from the silence of his cell comes this message even more elo- quent perhaps, and even more far-reaching, than were the words from his pulpit. # ll 3 $

Apropos the high commendation of Mr. J. F. Whear, the Campbell Government official represenmtive, of the sobriety andgoodbehavior at the \’Vorld's Fair not withstanding wide open saloons, the following from the New York Times should prove additionally interesting to the Sons of Temperance, etc.: “For the second time since the World's Fair opened the curfew on liquor establisliments in the amusement zone has been extended. Beginning yesterday, the Fair ruled that bars in that area might remain ‘open until 4 a.m., an hour longer than the previ- ous ruling permitted. Closing time for Fair bar: now is the same as in other parts of the city. When the Fair opened operators of bars were told that they would have to close at 2 am. However, after several weeks it was notic- ed that many customers considered this hour too early and were willing to remain if the bars would remain open. Owners protested that many of the amusements remained open until 2 ,a.in. and that after amusements closed they were forc- ed to turn away many prospective customers. As I result, the Fair amended its first ruling and permitted the bars to stay open until 3 o'clock." it in an t

According to the Ottawa correspondent of the Globe and Mall, Dr. Dunning declined to be made a catspaw of the Prime Minister to tide him over the election. When he sent in his re- signation it was definite with no strings to it, and even now so far as he is ‘concerned he’ is no longer Minister of Finance, whether his re- signation is accepted or not. This is the after- math of the incident which brought on Dr. Dun- ning’s illness. It will be recalled that the Prairie Liberal member‘; made a dead set on him for departing from his Free Trade principles and accepting the National policyheven in the modi- fied form espoused by Mr. Mackenzie King.
