Progress In The Maritimes

(Montreal Gazette)

The Maritime Provinces have their own peculiar problems, md the indications today are that they are solving thdn satlsiactorlly. It is a frequent political complaint that they suiier under economic disabilities that are not 0i their own making. But none may charge that they have not triumphed over most oi their disabilities, largely in virtue or their own initiative and enterprise. Business generally has been improving during the past iew months and apparently the lrn- provement is oi a permanent kind. The Maritime Merchant, a Halifax periodical which makes an impar- tial survey oi the trade and oom- meros in the Maritime: twice n month, in its current issue reports that. there is a marked diﬂerencs in the feeling oi producers and mer- chants when compsrcd_ with their spirit twelve months ago. Them is, ‘oi course, still unemployment. There are unpaid bills, and perhaps the merchant ln s limited ileld. when he looks around and consults his ledger, may be unable to see un- mediately that he ls greatly better oil than a year ago. but. in the phmsc to which President Roose- velt has just lent a new signiﬁcance the Maritime Merchant editorial- ly declares: “We are on our way!”

Maritime products Elva been, sod continue to be. in greater demand at better prlcu. This is particularly tnle 0t the lumber industry; and wQ are now told oi "huge mipments" oi apples and an increasing de- mand and hllher prices for pots- toes.

The Unreal In Politics

(Ottsws Journal!

A Western Liberal membe oi the House oi Commons said in s debate there that "one million people were having to be led in Canada today because oi’ Conservative pol- icies." This is the sort oi thing which makes one impatient with politicians.

It Cansds were the only country which hsd encountered diﬂicnlties in the past tour years it might be possible to argue with some eiiect that tbs reason must be ioundln government policies. 1r the United states were prosperous. the United Kingdom . mmpe sud Asia and Andes and Australasia enjoying boom times. Canada the sole exception m a brilliant picture. we should agree that the explana- tion must be lound at home.

But such, or course, is not the case. The do was world- wide, and no country‘ escaped. Most oi them suﬂered iar more severely than Canada. Most o! them are

sdsorsiew islands lnthe West Indies or elsewhere be turned over‘ hington in settlement

these debts. Still, when the inquiry; was made in the British House 011 Commons it had to be answered: Laud cheering greeted the Prem- ier's reply that “under no circum- stances could there be any question o! such In a“ gement."

British possessions are not so lightly held. They are not on the bargain counter. It is ‘ nceivsble that Britain would urge any oi her colonies, even the most Insignifi- cant, to do anything to which they were opposed. They are permitted, tomextsntwhichtherestcitks world ilnd it dlmeult to under- stand, to do virtually as they please. The Domlnions speak tor themselv- es

The sssump‘ st Wstmlnstcr is that the people or oversees see- tions oi the nnpire know what is best tor their ‘ terests. and they are encouraged to develop along lines most suitable to local condi- tions. 1t they b; paradoxical that this attitude constitutes one oi the stnmmst ties o! mnpin. but that is the tact. Theme is nothing ior sale; nothing to be swwpped for else; and certainly not for the can- celling o! war debts. "What we have we hold."
