Critical Times

I..t.-Col. Stewart in thc course of his address stated that "we are again facing trying times in world politics. Great nations are again placing chips on shoulders, and it well behooves us to keep ourselves well informed and up to date, not only on world politics, bufon mill- tary matters pertaining to the var- lous branches of the services.”

The retiring President urged a

and objects for the eifistence of the_

tures, by drawing on the great wealth of military and kindred knowledge within the club and leaving no stone unturned in an effort to bring to the club any speaker who may have a message of interest to the members.

"I would like, here and now," Col. Stewart said, “to assure the various local Commanding Officers, of active and Reserve Units, that the full membership of this Club and it's complete resources, stand four-square behind them in their work in keeping alive the frame work of our Canadian Defence For- ces. And that we are ready and willing to assist them in any way possible in their good work.” '

In the entertainment field, Col. Stewart made mention of the visit to the Club of LL-Col. Cecil C. Mer- ritt, V.C., M.P., in June, through the efforts of Major D. L. Math- ieson. He also paid tribute to the work done by Major T. B. Rogers and his committee in the staging oi the Club picnic which proved such a success that its continuance as an annual event is assured.

The retiring president cited the outstanding services rendered the Club by the Secretary, Major C. M. Williams. l-Ie felt that his re- cords would stand as a monument to his work and. amid applause from the large gathering of mem- bers, extended sincere thanks to the Secretary for his conscientious attention to Club affairs.

Thanks of the club were also ex- tended Mr. J’. F. Mnclseod in the improvement of club grounds.

In assuming the presidency of the Club, Col. Fielding expressed his thanks for the honor conferred on him and assured members he would strive to implement the aims

How- ever, definite reaction of the strik- ers, who walked ofl the job Oct. I1 to back up demands for a 15- cent hourly hoist, could not be ascertained immediately.

First Sign Of Break

It was the first sign of a pos- sibie break in the tie-up oi the Colonys main transportation sys- tem.

W. H. Pihilllps, spokesman for the 2,500 strikers. previously said any move to mediate the dispute would have to be initiated by the Government.

Until today the Government stuck to its offer of a seven-cent- an-hour increase. Although lt was understood that J. S. Neill, chair- man oi the Public Utilities Board. was meeting with railway repre- sentatives tonight no definite an- nouncement was expected before tomorrow.

In the Government's reported compromise, employees receiving up to 5B cents an hour would be given a iii-cent hourly hoist while those making more would be given e seven-cent jump.

Russia is preparing for war, just like everyone else who cannot find sure signs oi peaca in the air. But her troop dispositions indicate clearly that she still thinks there ls time; that the western world will knock itself’ out economically, permitting her to do a mere clean- up job on the pieces, She wants the West to waste its substance in rearming, in expensive reaction to heir proddinss. She doesn't think we can stand it. ,
