The shock of the President's death is tre- mendous and will reverberate round the world, causing dismay, as well as sorrow, in the hearts and minds of many statesmen and tnauy peoples who have come to look tipon him as one of the chosen of God to lead the world out 0f its pre- sent troubles into a longed-for state 0f PC1108. harmony and well being. Of the three, he was the _yotmg'est—Chttrchill being seventy, Stalin sixty-six and Roosevelt sixty-three. But in ad- dition to being a physical invalid, Roosevelt has had a weight imposed upon him by internal as well as external affairs these last few years that has undoubtedly sapped his energy and hastened his demise 'l‘he question on everyone’: lips now will be, how will the United States measure up to its responsibilities with its “Happy Warrior" re- moved from the scene? It is true that Vice- Prcsident Truman automatically succeeds t0 the Presidency but will he be able to fill his pre- decessor's shoes in other respects, and if not, who is there in the Presidential entourage who can be relied upon to itiaintaiit the great Re- public in its rightful position as director of in- ternational affairs at this very critical juncture? We are in for a period of terrible strain and anxiety, and it will be sometime before the situa- tion can be straightened out, and a new trium- virate organized to maintain the solidarity and success of the Allies’ diplomatic plan of cam- paign. Amended Prohibition The main amendment to the Prohibition Act adopted by the Legislature recognizes the seeming futility of attempting to make this a bone dry province. The Jones Govertuncnt had the altern- ative of attentpting to eradicate the liquor busi- ness entirely and making this a non-liquid island stirrotmded only by water, or recognizing the frailty of ltuman nature and making it slightly easier for thine so “rlispoged" to obtain legiti- mately the stimulant they want without tiecessar- ily resorting to bootleggers and other illegiti- mate means. There will be difference of opin- ion, as there was in the Legislature, as to the wisdom of the policy approved. As a matter of fact. as the result of the atncndiuetit, the Liquor Law is neither fish, flesh, fowl nor good red herring, it is neither ‘Pro’- hibition nor (iovernnient Control, but a compromise, and after all, the world stems to succeed wonderfully in getting along more or lcss satisfactorily‘ by following the lite of least resistance through the medium of making mut- ual concessions. What has happened in the Legislature is simply this. The Governtncnt found. as every one of its predecessors had found, that they could not make effective the terms of the Prohibition Act. ilut instead of boldly coming to the people, as the Stewart Gov- ernment did in 1927, taking their political lives in their hands, declaring that it was necessary to make the .‘\ct less stringent, they (lccidetl to leave it ‘to a private mentber of the llousc last year to bring in a bill dealing with the sub- jsct.

'lihere is no question that the l‘rohibi1ion Law in practice had not only lic- come :1 farce, but devcolpcrl into a tnedicrtl rarkrtt and bootleggers bonanza. According to Hon.

Uttdcr the law as amended, they will he free from such lowering of their status as professional men and reputable citizens. As to the bootleggers, we are afraid,like the poor whom they largely create, they will always be with us, or at ileast until such times as the retail price of the cup that cheers as well as inebrirttcs is so reduced as to make it not worthwhile manufac- turing the contraband substitute.

The goal is higher by a net of $50 millions than the objective of the Seventh Loan last Fall. But the stepping up of the objective and the substantial total being sought—nearly seven times that asked in the First War Loan in 1940 ~—also bestow an accolade of confidence and complimentary expectation upon the people of Canada. This especially applies to individual Canadians, for whom the sub-objective in the coming Loan has been increased by $75 mil- lions to $575 millions-exactly the same as the goal for corporate, institutional and name” subscriptions. “special The amount asked from corporations, etc., is slightly lower than in the last Loan. The solid reliance thus placed on the per- formance of individuals in the next Loan is ivell-fotmded. Subscriptions from persons has tremendously expanded with every previous loan, reaching $766 millions from over 3,300,- War finance authorities have every reason to believe they can now ap- peal for sustained‘ and even greater support from the savings and surplus income of those WlIO, in the deepest sense of the ivord, make up the nation. ' For the people have shown themselves be- yond question anxious to provide the necessary financing to keep Canada's war effort going; ready to do so by sacrifice and deferred spend- ing in many cases: and increasingly appreciative of Victory Bonds as a. sound investment and easy way of saving. Providing Canadians realize the need and respond as in the past, there is little doubt that the objective of the next Loan drive will be well exceeded, and probably go even higher than the actual total subscription of the last campaign —$t,517 millions. It is none too soon for every citizen to start planning now what his SUbSCFlPIlOH will be in the COllllllg drive. -EDITORIAL NOTES- Friday and the Thirteenth. w » - u- n- 4 w The Second Battle of Narvik gave a glori- ous victory to the British flotilla this date, I940; the previous day the R.

A great amount of whole blood is be- ing used today. Our pre-invasion estimate was much too low. Battle experience proved that instead of one blood transfusion for every five wounded, it. is required for one of every two men wounded.” a n- o a The tribunal set up to decide whether or not the Federal Government has the right to withhold from Saskatchewan subsidies granted under the I942 Dominion-Provincial Taxation Agreement, will hold its first sitting at Ottawa early in May. Following receipt of an order from the tribunal. the Saskatchewan government has filed and ilclivered its statement of claim in the case, it has been announced by Attorney General j. W. Corman, K. C. The Dominion government has been ordered to deliver its de- fence within 14 days, with the province obligat- there- after. s w- v w The Canadian Institute of Public Opinion has just conducted an enquiry among the vot- ers of the nine provinces, not indeed to learn the political sentiment of those interviewed, but to get some idea of which way the wind is blowing. The question asked was: "Without taking into account the patrty for which you wish to vote, which one, to the best of your knowledge, do you think will receive the largest vote at the next Federal Elections?" 36 per cent named the Liberal Party; 34 per cent the Progressive- Conservative; rz per cent went for the C. C. F. ivith the other 18 per cent expressing no defin- its opinion. Ottawa Le Droil, commenting on the results nf this enquiry notes that it "is a good indication of the profound difference in public opinion." Then it declares that at the present moment not a single one of the three great parties seems tn be in a position to com- mand an absolute majority.
