Tine cancer campaign

The City objective of 3i5,000 in the 1950 cancer campaign is a, comparatively small amount in view of the greatimportance of the work on which the money will be ex- pended. The drive, which opens today, is for the promotion of educational and re- search activities, which are essential wea- pons in fighting this insidious disease. This Province has made encouraging progress in cancer education as well as in other health activities in recent years, but there is much yet to be done.

As pointed out in recent news items, the Canadian Cancer Society is essentially a lay organization, sparked by public spir- ited citizens who have devoted freely of their time and means to promoting its activities. Their aim is to arouse public opinion to the need of early treatment in cancer cases, thereby saving thousands of lives which are lost needlessly every year through neglect of this most vital precau- tion.

Thanks to the success of previous ef- forts in this direction, cancer patients are being treated earlier than ever before. This fact only accentuates the great advantages that would accrue from making this prac- tice general throughout Canada. The pre- sent campaign is a community effort in every sense of the word, and should meet with prompt and generous response from our citizens.

Britain's Defence Minister, I:;ma'nuel Shinwell, has announced that the United Kingdom would be able to provide 10 di- visions .within a year to meet any Eur- opean emergency. Not long ago Mr. Churchill called for such a .'force and also for two or three divisions from this coun- try. .In the weeks preceding U. N. as- sault landings in Korea General MacArthur repeatedly appealed for ground forces to be supplied without delay.

Canada's response, apart from supply- ing threel warships and a transport squad- ron, has been to begin the creation of a brigade for Korean service and the statemen-t of Prime Minister St. Laurent that no allied government has asked Can- ads to send troops to Europe and that his cabinet is not considering such a move.

The question that must be answered is what action is most likely to dissuade Rus- sia from plunging the world into war? Of- fers of financial and material assistance to Europe have been made by this country and are of great value, butas long as we stand unready to supply our share of train- ed troops to meet the common peril we are not doing all that we should to avert the catastrophe of a third world war.

been much overrated in terms of the bene- fits they are supposed to have wrought in restoring Canada's dollar trade balance, which, in point of fact, has improved much more rapidly since controls were re- laxed than it did while they were in force.

Add to these several circumstances the effect of United States defence purchasing now operative in Canada, audit is pretty clear that the dollar problem is no" longer of significance.

Big liners were supposed to be on the way out before the First World War.

Next year however, the centen- ary of the crystal Palace exhibition. Britain is again to show the world - and her cwn people - what she can do in industry, in science, in invention. painting, music, drama. and indeed in all human activities. A great. hall is again being built in London, but not this time of glass. A fine concert hall, equipped with all the latest developments in seat- ing, lighting, acoustics, foyers. art- lstes' rooms, and so cn, will fill the gap left by the destruction of the Queens' Hall during the last war.

Not London only. but many of Britain's great cities are scheduled for the exhibition of suitable icon! industries and culture. others will be centres for drama, music. opera - places like Edinburgh, stratford.

A MAN FROM LLOYD'S

"Numerous have been the cases that have fallen under the cog- nizance of the writer, where in dispute between the shlpbullder and contractor it has turned out that the vessel in question has been insufficiently bolted and cauliced, knees apparently sound on the first view, have upon examination turned out defective in the heart: every kind of artifice was resorted to in ri-.ler to conceal latent de- feels, (31.1 at times such an expos- ure oi 1:..er recklessness and want of pr.nc.n12 as made him shudder.

"It. 1:. t .- us great pleasure when we heard it announced that a building surveyor from Lloyd's had arrived and intended to take up his residence among u.s, for the ex- press purpose of examining into the construction of vessels while on the stocks, and keeping an eye upon them from the laying of the keel to their sailing out of the har- bour . . . We took the liberty of waiting upon him, and were highly gratified at the open, frank, gentle- manly ma er in which our ad- vances were rcceived by Mr. Coker.

"Shipbuilding is the only manu- facture - if it may be so called - of any extent, that we have in the Island, and as it constitutes ll con- siderable itom in our articles of ex- port. it is of first importance that it be maintained at the highest standards. . . . It will be easily can- jectured, that no contractor will omit. in future specifications in con- dition that the vessel shall be duly surveyed according to the instruc- tions from 1-l0lr'd's, and that the certificate of their surveyor shall be decisive as to .whether the con- tract has been duly executed or not. In truth. no owner. will ven. ture. we should think. to send his vessel to sea, without having first submitted her to thlsiproof of her soundness. as any reluctance or un. Willingness so to do. is a species of negative evidence that there is something in her construction or equipment that will not bear in- quiring into."
