The Star omits reference to the strongest point raised by Mr. Bracken, namely the need of re-establishing the supremacy of Parliament. The appointment of responsible under-secre- taries would not only relieve the ministers, but would do way with the excuse for delegating ministerial powers to bureaucrats who are not answerable to the people.

_l>riority*0n Brains

A grave fault in the Canadian system of higher education is its failure to meet the case of the brilliant and promising student de- nied university training because of lack 0f means. Australia is meeting this problem by direct governmental assistance in deserving cases. The plan is explained by the news bulle- tin of Australian Section, Empire Press Un- ton: .

“In future the whole field would be open to rich anCl poor alike. Where a student could meet the full cost of a course without hardship no assistance would be given. In other cases payments would be partial or total according to circumstances. In assessing mean: there would be no prying into personal affairs a: inquiries would be limited to the amount of the family income and the number of dependent children.

"For three year: after graduation a student would, if required, accept Commonwealth em- ployment in hi: professional capacity.

"Assistance would be given to utudent: in medicine, dentistry, engineering, veterinary, science, agriculture, and science 1nd perhaps

Post-War Salvage

A parliamentary sub-committee on salvage has tabled a report in the House of Commons, and its recommendations are of iriterelt not alone to industralists, but to every Canadian who gives thought to this matter and would like to see Canada's economic future bolstered by something more reassuring than vague hopes or fears. A program of conversion is plainly needed, and essential to its success, in the op- inion of the stib-committec, i: the over-all plan- ning and SlIl'\'(‘_Vll1g nf war-time salvage and conservation both in a national and an interna- tional scnsc. The sooner this is done, the easier it should be to avoid huge wastage when in- dustry is confronted with a change-over for the post-um‘ era. The sub-committee urges that the sanit- principles of salvage and conservation be continued after peace has been established. Its members attach importance to the lmowl- edge gained and the practices followed by in- dustry during war-time and is convinced that tremendous savings can be made if the fullest atlvantge is taken of these improved techniques.

The tuiprcccrlcutcd demands of war have been an succcssfitlly inct by Canadian industry that it should ht- pnssihle to grapple with the re- quirements nf peace without general stoppage: nr \\‘l(l'_‘$pl‘£‘.'ld dislocation. Preparation, prac- tical adaptations and salvage of everything that is useful should facilitate the big job, hasten the tit-establishment of Canada’: post-wu- economy and keep the spectre of unemployment where it belongs-on the outside looking in, with every door barred against it.

_ No More Strikes i’

The Government's experience with the atecl strike ottght, says the Ottawa Journal, to be enough of the kind while this war lasts. It is running the war industries, and is the final au-

Wthority on rates of pay and other working con- ditions. It awards the contracts and use: the products. The manufacturers nre its agents: the work being done i: Government work.

‘l

No other authority i: so intimately concerned with the result: of the operations if it truly- represent: the people of the country. Therefore it i: the duty of the Government to make certam that obstacles do not impede, and that the maxi- mum of production is achieved. Grievances, justified or not do not usually come to the sur- face with a suddcnness that need surprise. Ordinarily much spadework is done‘ to bring about a strike on a large scale, and there are signs of brewing trouble.

With all the machinery at its command to deal with trouble in its active stages, surely the Government can anticipate a crisis in time to head it off. If not, it is blind to the realities of industrial operations and the ways of profes- sional agitators. It should make certain beyond pcradveuture that there will no recurrence of these stoppages, which, obviously, are likely to occur in a minority of plants. Strikes can be stopped in initial stages, and it is the Govern- ment's responsibility to keep closely enough in touch with operations to sec that the initial stages are not passed

Mr. I. S. McLean, chairman of the Cana- dian Aid to Russia Fund committee, reported fund receipts totalled $1,056,000 at Jan. 27. Original objective of $1,000,000 was reached at the week-end, and officials expect when the campaign closed on Saturday the final total will be many thousands in excess of the first goal.

Ancta News Agency tells this one on the strength of a Nethcrlander just escaped to Bri- tain from German occupied Holland. A man. fed up with conditions tried to commit suicide. First he tried to hang himself, but the “crsatz" rope broke under his weight. Next lie threw himself into a canal, but his “ersatz" suit. made of wood, kept him afloat. In disgust, he bought some poison from a drug store, but that was “ersatz” too, and had no effect. Finally he gave up the idea of suicide and started to live on his ration coupons. As a result, he died within a month.

Mr. Raymond is reported to have said he expects to be followed into the opposition ranks by Mr. Edouard Lacroix (Lib. Bcatice) and Dr. Pierre Gauthier (Lib.

Candlemas, the festival held to commemor- ate the Presentation of Christ in the Temple. The custom of blessing the candles for the whole year on-this date came into use in the 11th century:

“If Candlemas day be fair and bright,

Winter will have another flight:

If on Candlemas day it be shower and rain.

Winter is gone and will not come again."

"If the sun i: bright on the day of tho Purification( Candlemas Day) there will be more frost after the ‘feait titan before it.”

In the British House of Commons : member inquired whether Mr, Dalton, to meet the press- ing need: of war worker: and to reduce absen- teeism, would arrange for immediate distribu- tion of alarm clocks and bicycle lamp batteries at reasonable ricel. Mr. Dalton replied that hi: representative in Washington was trying to obtain increased shipments, the export from U. S. A. having fallen off. Mr. Will Thorne, Ll- borite, caused laughter when he asked Mr. Dal- ton if he could not arrange to revive the old sys- tem under which men with long poles, went around rapping at sleepers‘ windowl. Mr. Dal- ton did not reply.

After the sensational success of "While Rome Burns", and his simultaneous radio hit a: the "Town Crier," Alexander Woollcott’: star of popularity had begun to wane, says the Mon- treal Gazette, when an odd thing happened. George Kaufmann and Moss Hart wrote l play called "The Man Who Came To Dinner," a

ortrait of Woollcott so brilliantly savage that if they had submitted it to counsel, they would probably have been warned not to produce ‘tr for fear of libel action. It was an instan- taneous hit. The incredible rudeness, implac- able egotism and ruthless wit of Sheridan White- side became famous from coast to coast. And Woollcott, who by all the ordinary rules should have been either in a towering rage or a cow- ering shame, urbanely fitted the cap to his head by playing the role in person. His death was sudden but not unexpected-intimates have bet-n predicting for years that he could not keep on drinking 40 cups of coffee a clay, with other eccentricitics to tnatcli. Woollcnll preferred to live as he liked, and citjuy it while it lasted. He did.
