Victory In Africa

The great news from Africa grows more and more significant as its implications are pondered. 111g (jcymuijg had c\'t‘l‘_\'llllllg to gain by holding fast in 'l'iinisia.

Yet at no time ivﬂs the much-vaunted Lutwaffe a factor in the battle. 1n the end it was swept from the skies, and the ground forces of the enemy were left i0 meet the invincible weight of the Allied attack from land, air and sea.

Another Record For Us.

The following editorial from Tuesday's Mon- troll Gazette shows that as s Province we lead Canada in more ways than one:

f‘Little Prince Edward Island, smallest and 1Q” wealthy province of the Dominion but with one of the highest per cspita enlistment records, has set sn example to Canada in the important mutter of protecting servicemen from civil dis- abilities as s result of their entering the armed forces. ,

"As these columns have frequently potrited cut, Canada gives no protectipn to its soldiers md sailors against default judgments, absentee sizures, mortgage. foreclosures and soon, such IS American soldiers receive from their Spark- man Act. Ottawa has passed the buck to the provinces in this matter. Ontario, at the last Legislature session, made a rather hesitant start towards soldiers’ and sailors’ civil relief with a moratorium act, which prevents loss of a soldiers home :hrough mortgage foreclosure. Other provinces have not done even that much. But Prince Edward Island, alone of the nine, p1_'0- vides comprehensive protection for the soldier against any form of legal action for debt, if his ability to mcct such debt has been adversely af- fected by his military service. _

“Premier Thane A. Campbell introduced s

bill at the last l‘.E.I. legislature session which“

provides that: _ _ _

‘No legal action or proceeding, judicial or ex- tra-judicial, shall be taken. commenced or con- tinued against any member of His Majesty's forces on active service within Canada or else- where, or zigainst any of his property real, per- sonal or mixed, in respect of any debt or obliga- tion contracted or assumed by him prior to the commencement of his current period of active service, WlthOtll; leave of a Judge of the Supreme Court or of the Court wherein such action is to be taken or continued.’

“This is the first of ten sections in the Act, but the others are modifications and limitations of Section One. It is provided that a judge in granting or refusing leave to prosecute shall consider such factors as length and conditions, of the defendant's active service, 'tlie defend- snt’s general financial condition and attitude to the discharge of obligations,’ and so on. Pro- tection shall continue until one year after the end of the war or the defendant's discharge from the armed services, ivliichcver shall first take place. Default judgments are specifically for- biddem-‘A judge shall not grant leave to pro- ceed under this Act (i.e., to sue a soldier) un- kss the defendant is represented at the applica- tion, until due notice of the application is given lo an official Soldiers’ Welfare Representative to be ilcsigiiatcd by the Attorney-General.’

"Provincial handling of this problem is bound to create anomalies, not the least of which is that

tection than active service volunteers of another. But since it is now apparent that Ottawa will not act, the provinces must, and the smallest of them has set an excellent example.

In manpower production and taxes, Canada is doing proportionally more than the United States in the war effort, Mayor Fiorello H. La Guardia of New York said in a brief interview while in Montreal. His Worship was standing in the vestibule of the Sun Life Building, await- ing his cue to go out onto the stage to address the throng attending the Victory Iioan rally, and he chatted pleasantly with the Gazette re- presentative. “Your Worship," he was asked, “how do we stack up? Is Canada doing as much as the United States, bearing in mind our res- pective populations?” “More,” was the prompt» reply. “I mean, in three respects: manpower, production and taxes. Of course,” he added hastily, “we're doing an enormous job, and in some ways we’re ahead of you. But in those three ways you lead."

A correspondent of Marketing quotes from William McFeds “Casuals of the Sea” to show

the arts. “For the Browns are the real sup- porters of progress in the arts. They are al- ways the first to take up the new idea. Who had incandescent mantles first? Neither you nor I, but the Browns had them-while we walk- ed in darkness. Who first discarded the old musical box and bought the gramophone? Who seized the safety bicycle and made it their own? Who listens to the voice of the inventor crying in the wilderness? Not the cultured and leisur- ed ones of the land, not the literary and scienti- fic, but the Browns, the Cerebos of the earth.

When Quebec is not ruled from Ottawa! Monday, May 24, will be recognized by the law courts in Quebec as a non-juridical day, notwith- standing the order-in-council, passed st Ottawa on September 25 last on the recommendation of the federal Minister of Labor restricting legal holidays in the Dominion, for the dura- tion of the war, to New Year's Day, Good Fri- day, Dominion Day, Labor Day, Thanksgiving Day and Christmas Day. The decision that the law courts shall be closed on Victoria Day was reached after correspondence between the Hon. Severin Letourneau, Chief justice of the pro- vince of Quebec, an the Attorney-Generals Department at Quebec. The Chief justice and the Attorney-General are agreed that the fed- eral order-in-council does not apply to the Que- bec courts of justice, which are governed by the law of the Code of Civil Procedure. This es- acts that the following are non-juridical days: Sundays, New Year's Day, the Epiphany, Ash Wednesday, Good Friday, Easter Monday, As- Cﬂﬂsivﬂ Day. St. John Baptiste Day (June 24), All Saints’ Day, the Kiiig’s Birthday, the Feast of the Conception, Christmas Day “and any day appointed by proclamation of the Governor- Geiieral or of the Lieutenant-Governor." "Re- garding Victoria Day,” wrote Chief justice Letourneau to Mr. L. ILesilets, assistant At- torney-General, "I agree with you that the Fed- eral Act (revised Statutes of Canada, 1927, chap. ici- 204) has the effect of a proclamation of the Governor-General to make May 24 g non- Jiirirlical day in the province 0f Quebes.
