There have. it is true. been delays. ' Want of foresight hi voting an in- adequate amount of 9.000.000 witn- out any consideration as to the re- quirements of the service nearly rc- l suited in foisting upon us a steamer which would have been of little use as an ice breaker and would have seriously handicapped the Province for many years to come. However, this mistake has been rectified. Sub- . sequent delays have retarded the pro- gress o! the plans. but, there isevery " reason to believe that the work will now be pushed forward to the earli- _ est possible completion. l There still seems to be some doubt 'with respect to the date of comple- ' lion. Sir Henry Thornton. in a re- ‘jcent letter to The Guardian. stated explicitly that the new steamer would be In commission by the fall oi’ 1930.

Nothing but harm rcould come of stirring up hatred against the United States by tariff retaliation; there was something fun- damentally wrong with protection if ; it has to rely upon prejudice forsup- port; and so on.

Dollar Days.

The holding of special sales by the merchant-s this week comes in 0D-

‘ portunely for the Christmas buying.

While purchases are being made the year around there is always an ex- tra demand before the Christmas holidays, and this demand is well supplied this year. The advertise- ments appearing from day to dayin- dlcate what goods are available and where they may be found. Today and tomorrow special discounts will be made on practically all lines ofgoods. thus giving the people of town and country an opportunity of making their purchases to the best advan- tage. Our merchants may be de- pended upon to give the best value possible, and especially now that they are making a general bid for the Christmas patronage. The oppor- tunity of purchasing now at more than ordinarily attractive prices will enable customers to avoid the usual rush immediately preceding the holi- days. It is good to have the worry over of selecting Christmas gifts be- fore the festive season begins.

Co-operative Associations.

_The Department of Labour has just distributed the Second Report on (Jo-operative Associations in Canada, a volume which indicates the extent of the co-operative movement in the Dominion. The report contains thc names of 936 societies, with a com- bined membershlp of 512.835. Given first place in the report is the Co- operative Union of Canada, whose aim is to federate co-operative soci- eties for mutual advantage and to propagate a knowledge of co-opera- tive principles. The remaining asso- ciations are grouped provincially ac- cording to the phase ‘of co-operative endeavor with which thcy are identi- fied. as follows: ti) Productive, with 70 associations with a combined mem- bcrship of 51,007; t2) Marketing. 257 associations and 313.049 members; r31 Productive and marketing. 11 as- sociations and 3,337 members; (4) Distributive. 291 associations and 19.278 members; (5) Marketing and Distributive. 1c associations and 58,- 261 members; 16> Credit and Savings. 5 associations and 41.072 members; Miscellaneous. 286 associations and 26.741 members.

Notes The Way

A strange bargain has been made by the Labor Government in England with the Government of Argentina. The announcement comes in e cable- gram from Buenos Aires. the purport of it being that British artificial sill: shall be edmlttsJ to Argentina at half’ the rate of duty that it shell be ad- mitted from any other country. The sole consideration that Britaih makes in return is that should she impose any protective duties or other restric- tions on foodstuffs from countriu out- side the Empire Argentina meats and

cereals shall be exempt therefrom. 1 ..This will be a surprise and dIsap-. pointment to the British Dominians| overseas. They had not expected any special favors from the MacDonald

Government, and. on the other hand

they had not feared what has now

come to pass. that any future Gov-

ernment in Britain might be barred

from giving them some preference‘ for their foodstuffs. It strikes q

direct blow at the much hoped for

establishment of an Empire trade

policy, whether of free trade or oi‘

preferential trade throughout the

British Empire;

It seems to be admitted that the

Argentina treaty gives Great, Britain

a favorable opening for trade exten-

sion in South America. where the

United States and Germany have

been competitors with Britain hither-

to. But If the MacDonald Govern-

ment goes on making treaties of this

sort. other nations will not be back-

ward in following suit. and what oom-

plications and reprisals may result

cannot be foreseen.

Russian newspapers supporting the Soviet, Government are explicit ‘in their statements that there’ will be no cesation of the propaganda car- ried on by the Third International for the overthrow of all governments in foreign lands. It is going on now. in fact. just the same as it was he- fore the MacDonald Government agreed to re-establish diplomatic and trade relations with Russia. Commu- nistic propaganda is active in Can- ada, and the Third International _is known to be inseparable from the Russian Government. What will be the outcome of it all?

An American statistician takes note of the fact that although Canada possesses only about one-half of one per cent. of the world's population,
