In Holland

Operation

The following points are gathered from the United Kingdom Information Service:

The operation in Holland has been at IP85! two-thirds successful. In a few days l>1tt1>l1 troops pushed on over fifty nulcs-a distance which must have been covered much more slow- ly (though it would have been covered in the end) had (he air llUfnQ operation not talcctt PIIICL‘.

Alexander Clifford SFlliS up the situation m

ing what further measures than those existing should or can be taken in combating carteliza- tion. While the United States has regarded the cartel form of orgarlizatioti as a breeder of war and as contrary to accepted theories of free and competitive enterprise, there are European economists who profess to believe it the only basis for reorganization of the world's post- war economy.

Cartels involve control oi production throttglt ownership of exclusive patent ltoldittgs and of raw materials entering into manufacture. Where operations are on an international scale, wide ramification of organizaticn is necessary in which the sovereign functions of government may be usurped. In short, a cartel is a monop- olistic medtanism.

If there is a skelcton—there is also an idol in the cupboard." a Here is our financial standing as a nation: Catiadiait total credits of $4,004,000,o00 on cur- rent account with all countries last (year were $l,_’0t1.000,000ltigl1e-r than current debits 0f $2,S58,o0o,000. This credit balance, compared with $t,to1,ooo,o00 in 1942, $401,000,000 in 11).]! and $t26,ooo,ooo in r939. The modcratc increase in the credit lmlrutcc in I943 was due to a sharpiincrease in total debits as well as in credit whereas in the earlier years of the war credits were expanding more rapidly than debits.

It wasn't an isolated incident—it was the furthest lip 0f U16 £1131 carpet of air borne troops which was laid down for the land troops to advance over, and natur- ally their position was always most hazardous. They had a double task. They had to hold the bridges till we came by land and keep the Ger- mans from destroying them. They had to en- gage the crack rcinforcemcnts which the Ger- mans were trying to set down to etigage us at Nijmegen, which was far the most important of all the bridges. The paratroopers could not in the end carry out the first task. The bridges

were lost. But they succeeded magnificentllyrin the second task. That's where their sacrifice was worthwhile. It isn't too much to say that had those German reinforcements gotnthrotiglt we should probably have lust the Nuntegen bridges as well.

A Twentv-first Army spokesman sums up the situation by say-Eng the: the operation as a whole should be looked upon not as a brilliant failure but as an expensive success.

The Saint john Tlelegrayih-jotirttal is not greatly cnatnnured of the nutch vaunted ntcch- anical dcveloptueut of farming. "Our idea 0f a farm (it says) is that there should be some- thing more than work. Plump horses grazing in a nice green pasture, cattle placidly chewing the cud in an enclosure carpeted with lush grass, sheep picking around a straw strtclc and chickens underfoot in the farnrvartl are desir- able features of a farm. Cottple these with a fair measure of labor and the background is about complete. Of cottrsc, we would like run- ning ixater in the kitchen. a bathroom, electric lights and other labor saving itiachittcs so that the women could have some enj0ytttettt. Yes, we would modernise the farm, but we would be reasonable about it and not try to turn it into a factory which must he kept going at top speed all the time in order to keep level with the urban dwellers. We want our future farm still t0 be

Romantic warfare “all for the love of a lady" is still possible in this age and in this country of ours. A pitched battle took place the other day in Quebec City, necessitating the calling out of both the IJOIiGG-alld Royal (Qanadian Navy, because a young girl transferred her affections from one boy to another. Gangs backing both boys immediately went to the aid of their re- spective leaders with the result that; street fighting began, the youngsters ranging in age were armyed with an assortment of weapons. l‘0lice were on the scene early and kcpt a latte open between opposing sides.

FR 0M FROM FEAR

Removal of fear is the privilege and the duty o! insurance. It was the fearful consequences of the Great Fire 0f London in 1666 that gave birth to ingur. ance. It is fear of financial loss by fire, accident, and other unpredictable and costly events, that is the main spring of the Insurance business, initiated and nur- tured by private enterprise, and which for more than 250 years has conferred untold benefits on the human race.
