The-Gnderlying Cause

Economic nationalism was ‘blamed for the

vvorltl-ivide decrease in international trade by Mr. F. W. Fiicui, His 1\'lajcsty’s Senior Trade COYlIIIIlSFII-lllfll‘ Vin Canada, in an address before members of the Montreal branch of the Life Uiitlcrivritcrs Association recently. He remarked of the Commonwealth constituted "at lcast one bright ray during these troubles in international trad- We find that, mainly as a result of the Great \\"ar, economic nationalism has grown rapidly, he said. “Numerous countries ivhich be- fore the war were mainly producers of primary commodities, during and since the war have undertaken tlie establishment of many new In other words, there is a much larger number of industrial producers than in I914.

the fact remains, however, that the expansion of economic nationalism has not only made inter- national trade more difficult but it has also defin- itely prevented a rise in the levels of international trade to anything approaching tlie levels existing

He died at Shaftesbury, November I2, 935, and that city held a great commemorative celebration on the 5th of this month, participated in by both English and Scandinavian celebrities, Many people, especially of the old Church of Scotland, will be interested to learn that the brother of the Rev.

The primary object of the Inter-Provincial Conference called by Mr. Kim; for next month, even before he had taken office, is not, as many suppose for the purpose of considering amend- ment of the B. N. A. Act. Quebec is unalterably opposed to any interference with that which she considers her birthright. It is for the purpose of financing the Government, the provinces and the municipalities. The various cities require $30,- 000,000 to provide for unemployment this winter and want the Federal Government to foot the bill. Then both Ontario and Quebec object to the Federal Government entering their domain for tax raising, and want it- to get out. But where is the Federal Government to get to? - These are some of the questions Mr. Kim: wants

Either the sea-serpent population of tlie world ls growing space, or the news from loch Ness is encour aging people to believe optical evi- dence they would otherwise dism ss. Halifax reports a monster swim- ming in Redford Basin, on the Nova Scotian coast. It is a monster wtth special characteristics. Be- sides being '10 feet long, it has a head as large as the front of a motor ear iind ‘it swims so fast that a stream of fcam lles 1n its Wake.

The monster which has receiv- ed the most publicity 1n recent months 1s the denlzen of Loch Ness. Since people of unquestion- ed veracity have actually taken photographs of this Scottish beast, rlt is no longer possible to doubt its existence. The evidence is also good 1n favor of tlie monster which France has just entrred lii the competition. It lives near Si. Gand- ens and is described with great particularity by witnesses as hav- lng luminous eyes and being able] to ge; around on land.
