NUI l1) Prime Minister King still considers himself indispensable. U i I I The Minister of Defence for Air having re- signed, it does not necessarily follow that his zlssistatit, the Hon. Cyrus MacMillau, will do likewise. v Whatever else may follow from the present meeting of Parliament, the beginning of the cud has been reached for the Right Honourable Wil- liam Lyon Mackenzie King, Prime Minister. i I i It may be recalled that as recently as last week the press announced that the new De- fence Minister, General McNaughton, had found he could not provide reinforcements without a measure of conscription for over- seas service. Prime Minister King immedi- ately issued a statement to the effect that the report was absolutely without foundation. Yet the fact was as stated in the press. What re- liance can the brave soldiers at the front, or the ‘honest-to-gooducss people at home, place on the word of such a. hiachiavellian politician? l i i john Gibson Lockhart, Scottish author, died this date 1854; his main claim to literary dis- tinction is his Life Of Scott; he was the son-in- law of Sir Walter and coitnnilctl his biograph was for a time editor of the Quarterly Nrz-r , and published in addition Peter's Letter: to 11f: lvfihrfolk, lives of Burns and Napoleon and sev- eral irovels, the best known being Adam Blair. ln a letter to Carlyle on the death of Sir Wal- ter, he wrote the following verse: It is an old belief That on some solemn shore, Beyond the sphere of grief, Dear friends shall meet once more. U i i i I l l a It is no more than a simple coincidence that the report of the sale of 1,250,000 bushels of seed oats to the United Kingdom and the report that the British agricultural representa- tives were beginning an Empire tour should have fallen on the same day. Nevertheless, the two together serve to emphasize one point about as strongly as it is possible to do. There is no immediate likelihood, and probably none for some considerable time to come, that the lirit- lSlI will depart from the present policy of attempting to get as close as possible to self- sufficiency in the islands on the agricultural front. If this policy is deliberately extended into the peace era it will, most emphatically’, complicate the food export market picture for the Canadian agriculturist r a v n- An old Land Mark has been removed by the death in Winnipeg of Col.
