and will be beaten, although the cost will be heavy.

The Times concedes that the task ahead today is probably stiffer than at any moment in the first great war. With japan and Italy on the op- posite side, the alignment of forces is less favor- able. But in the last war Russia was driven out of the war before the United States entered it. This time both these great powers are in it tn- gether. While the news from Russia has been consistently bleak for the past two months, there is little chance of Russia being driven out of the war his year, although Germany may make more gains. If a second front cannot be established this year, it will be estiablishcd next spring and, although the way to victory may be long and dark, the Nazis will in the end be beaten.

Of these the air force accounts for 110,000, the navy 30,000. and the army 290,000. These figures are exclusive of the reserve army of men called up under their age groups for training. Between 600,000 and 700,000 men and women are engaged directly or indirectly in munitions production in Canada.

It has been intimated, in the House of Com- mons itself, (says Printed Word), that some young fellows are doing such valuable work in non-combatant activities that they should be praised for any disincliiiation they may have t0 join up. But it would seem as if a realistic view of the war situation demands that the armed forces try to find a combatant job for every man who is physically fit and young enough. And the more brains the better. The only exceptions might be highly-skilled munitions makers, and then only if older men, oi- men of lesser physical standards, could not do the work.

It is refreshing to have a member of our Great Silent Service stick up for our way of life com- pared with that of the Germans and the japs. Speaking in the British llouse of Commons re- cently Rear Admiral Beamish, M. P. declared: “A very great advertisement for our system, and the worst advertisement for the German system. is that we, an unprepared nation, have managed to stand up against the calculated might and the ferocity both of Germany and japan nd that they, notwithstanding all their prepar. ons, have made major mistakes which will listen their downfall. I am not impressed by the comparison one occasionally hears of our system with that of the Germans."
