Many divisions, a total of 13 from the ning of the session, were forced and on , of thesc the government majority was cut down to a ncw low of eleven votes, all those il$ng to the left of the Speaker voting against Ilibcrlls.

The number of pleasure vehicles crossing the international border into Canada. on vehicle entry permits in October, i945, was 84.933, ac- cording to the Dominion Bureau of Statistics. This is a. drop from the 145,968 entries in Sept- ember, but a gain from the 38,036 entries in October a year ago. For the first ton months of this year, there were 773,140 entries, coni- pared with .14,559 for the same period last year, and 1,038,490 for the first ten months of t9_4l,l so we still ltave a lot to make-tip bcfnrc we are back to ore-war international joy riding.

The trends of the Moscow Conference (says Montreal Gazette) makg it imperatjvg {m- (Janada actively to reconsider its‘ foreign policy. Under the direction of Prime Minister King, who is also Carladlfs Ivfinistcr of External Af- fairs, this country, throughout the years of war, has been placed in Opposition to the suggestion that the British Conunotiwealt-h should draw bo- gethcr as a unit in foreign affairs, and has been placed in a position of claiming a role as an in- dependent nation in the international scene. This claim was made in a particularly extreme form by Mr. King in his statement in the House of Commons an December i7, when he declar- ed that he could not "emphasize too strongly the right of this country to be one of the prin- cipals in any matters that relate to the draft- ing of the peace, and that have grown out of the war." Now Russia has definitely turned this down, saying if the British Dominion: are to be represcnted individually so also must the i6 Soviet Republics. To this the U. S. A. add, so must each State in its Union. The tllaim emphasized i: that the British Empire is one body politic just u the Russian Soviet and must have but one representation. Thus. con- cludes the Guam, the questions now before Canada are these: At-(wb still to continue our campaign to be ranked :mong the. principals? Or are we tn use our resources ton-thc a H, ', ening of the unity of British inftueiiu

When this Ehase was exhausted on the ridge s ort of Fontalne le Pin, 9 Brtzade wan switched over to the left to participate in a divisional attack to break throuuh the line held on a ridge north of the Lia.- son Rive: and to cross the river. Armoured troop carriers were used for the first time ln the d1. vision and at noon on l6 August, 8 and 9 Brigades moved off with I regiment of tanks and two Bat- talions each. The third Battalion ln_ each Brigade followed on foot. with the task of clearing up some three o." _f0ur miles through which the leading troops had motored without stopping. ‘

The attack was teed up in u mat- ter of hours and. in spite of nQr. ly everyone getting lost, was com- pletely successful. 7 Brigade puss- ed through and by the next day were on the high ground above Fulalse with the Polish armoured division on their right across the main road. Queaney Wood, which had been the stumbling block of the whole advance for some days, was first entered by a section of North Novles carriers without op- position.

The nekl; day the Battalion start- ed to relieve the Winnigaeg Rifles, but, orders were change and they moved to Olenden where they had a day to catch their breath. They were then switched fur- ther to the left and moved to the east bank of the river Dives. The gap, through which the German Army was now pouring, was rapid- ly closing, but before it closed the North Navies were sent to the end of the long line to strengthen the slight force holding the north- ern tip at: St. Lambert Sur Dives. The Poll‘ Division had contacted the Am leans to the south, but had stretched too fur, and the flood of Germans was pouring out behind them.

For a day or two the gap was only a mile or two wide and the pressure on the edges was some- tlmes quite strong. The best days toll of P. W. was 3700 through the unit cage. . . ‘ A; soon as the gap was closedall eyes turned east and the chase was an. The Seine was reached at

two or three days later. There was a day of light; skirmlshlng on the north bank of the Seine, but when the main road from Rouen was reached, troops were mounted on every available vehicle and thp long run east began. ‘ _

In one two-day period ‘l5 miles were covered and after crossing the Somme at Abbevllle 53 miles were covered in one day. The following day the Boulogne defences were reached. After spending some hours of searching and probing. the BB!‘ tallon was withdrawn, and the next few days were spent preparing i the assault. '

It was decided to attack from the east. and th; dominating feature‘ cov- erin the maln road was Mount Lam ert which rose about B00 feet and had a very large number of heavy concrete emplacements and living bunker: surrounded by wire and mines. This feature was the key to the defence of the port and was the North Navies first ob- jective. Bombers took it on at i100 hrs, 17 September, 1044, and at noon the Battalion moved forwar in armoured troop carriers, us in this case not to motor through the enemy lines, but to cross open around dominated by the Oblﬁv- flve. ,

The custom of giving New Year's gifts has never gone out of date, but the types of presents have cer- tainly changed wlth the years. In oldex-‘days when pins wen first invented and used (in the six- teenth century) they wer, consid- ered n very acceptable New Your’: gift fur ladies. Gloves, too, were considered singularly appropriate as they were formerly much more expensive than they are now.

Now, however,,wlth the em- phasls on rationed good: and n scarcity of many familiar com- modities, items much stranger than pins or gloves have found their way into the lists of wel- comed glfta. Undoubtedly, gifts of butter and sugar, and even hobby- pfns, may be regarded by future generation: ls the merely strange

quirks of 1946. . in the era of

Many years » go, the Long Peace before 1914, was written:

‘There exists a vary beautiful custom in Germany. Whlﬁh

where. On the first day of the New Year, whatever may have been the quarrels or enstrangemcnt be- tween friends and relatives, mut- ual visits are exchanged, kindly greetings given and received-all

is forgotten and forgiven."

It is just another example of how well camouflaged wu the real Germany, the Germany of savugery and violence and con- quest: the Germany that, in our time, has plunged the World into

and destruction, misery and woe- A good resolution, as this New Year dawns, is: “It must never be permitted to ‘flapper again!"

It hasn't all been a case of mer- ry-making and gift-giving on Jam- uary 1. Important economic and political events have taken place on this date, too.

It was on January l. 1801, that Great Britain and Ireland were united and the three kingdoms known as the "United Kingdom of

It was on January 1, 1863, that Lincoln issued his Emancipation Proclamation.

On January 1, 191.1. Australia officially accepted Canberra us its

new capital.

On Junuar 1. 1917, the old Col- only of Newfoundland adopted prohibition.

On New Year‘: Day. 1M1. United States‘ representative: withdrew

from the Council of Ambassadors‘ at Paris, thus savoring American participation 1n European dffatrs. And on this same day in 1942, the joint djecluraflon of the Unit- ed Nations was signed by twenty- six states. '

January 1 through the years, despite its "glad" reputation. has also carried its freight of relpon- sihility. .

uni looking word l; believed to have come from the French nu sut Pan neuf-"to the mlstletoq the New Year"-a term of rejoicing derived from the Drulrh.
