0anada’s Army Sings New Songs

OTTAWA, Jan iS-Canadafs new army sings new songs in this war as well as roaring out the rollick- ing choruses their fathers sang a acore of years ago.

Just as in the First Great War singing helps to shorten the hours when troop trains roll, when trans- ports nose out to sea, and when the boys are just slugging along on the line of march.

Typical of the spirit of the new soldiers, one of the latest songs re- calls the part the last generation played less than a quarter-century

ago:

"My old dad he was a soldier

"A little bit over 20 vears ago, "His duty was to fight

"Prom morn into the night,

‘And I am going over there

"To keep his model's bright. CHORUSI

“Oh! Chore Marie, just Walt for.

me, "Just wait for me on leave in gay

l European States!

By John Lloyd Associated Press Financial Writer

PARIS, Jan. 5 - tAPl-An or- ganlzed effort to develop discos- slon of a federation of European states took form today, with French circles expressing the hope thot eventually it would efilbffl-CC llle world. _

'l'he idea of the BrltTsh-French allies was described by authorized spokesmen as the creation of ‘a federation of free states‘ as oppos- cd to what they termed the oer- mlm Reich's ambition to albwrb other COlilltflfls‘ into 11s cmlllfe-

Hopc was voiced that some neu- tral countries may see tit. to join ln a ccugerative system similar t0 tllfli already 1n opcrat on among G1?“ Britain and France, even though the war continues.

As an example of the extent to which Britain and France are unit- ed, Prime Minister Chamberlain was quoted in an authorized 1111a!‘- fer as having asked Premier Dnlad- ler in a tele hone conversation to announce o.nt French- British financial hel to Turkey for 11-} earthquake V1Ctlm5 "for both of us.

French sources referred to recent French- Belgian and British-Swed- lsh trnde agreements as "signs of evolution" in the direction of a fed- erativc system in Europe.

The British. French plan of co-

operation wll be coiltinucd six months after the war ends. The plan provides for inter-

change of products to ensure tnllnr manufacture andfree flow between the countries of the goods of which one or the other is short; removal or alteration of tariffs; direct ex- change of currency at a fixed rel- ative value without, involving gold

The changes brought Mr. Stanley into the war cabinet 0f nine mem- bcrs but left sir Andrew can and Sir John Reith outside. The appointments were believed to be the only major cabinet changes contemplated, although minor shifts may occur later.

shrewd Choice

Observers saw a shrewd choice in the appointment of Sir Andrew Duncan as he has been associated with trade all his life and is credit- ed wlth ession of an almost un- l1valled owledge of such basic in- dustries as iron, steel. coal electric- ity and shipping. He has been in close touch with the export business -a subject which the government is particularly interested in

Traffic lip But Ship Uwners Wringing Hands

BOSTON. Jan, 5-—(CP)—The us- ual spectacle of ship owners wring- ing their hands while traffic through the port shows a. tremendous in- crease may be seen in Boston today,

United Slates customs figures show an approximate increase of $32,000,000 in the value of foreign products brought here in 1939. Ex- ports through the port advanced a- bout $2,000,000.

Shipping interests. however, are forced to watch one of the greatest commerce booms in the history of the port of Boston while their own ships lie idly by unable to carry goods either to or from Europe's danger zones under the neutrality not.

With all indications pointing to a rcQortI-breaking amount of traffic through the port for 1940, shipping men say, however, their outlook for the year is dismal. They say ships coming from South America, Far East ports and Africa are loaded to capacity with cargo that normally would be carried by United States vessels. In their opinion. these for- eign ships are making inroads into what. before the war was s rapidly- lmproylng American merchant mar- me.
