Coldwell Is Alarmed Mr. ColdweIl, CYCF. leader, has been offer- ing some Criticism of wartime national develop- ment which lends itself to interesting analysis. lie (lrckarcs that there are too many bureaucrats in Canada; he goes so far as to say that he is becoming "alarmed" at the growth of official- dom. Many other people who are not followers of .\lr. Caldwell share that feeling. But in Mr. (hltlvvcllk. case the reaction is surprising. The \\-'innipcg" lirce Press (Liberal) finds the suli- jcct worth a leading editorial, in which it says: ".\lr. tlildvvell‘; ambition, an entirely pro- per one, is to become Prime Minister of Can- ada and create here a socialist state. This in- volves, llllllttf‘ no matter what interpretation, a vast extension of state control over the indus- try and agriculture of Canada. Control re- quires administration. Administration needs staff. Mr. ("oldxvellk plans for the future in- volve an expansion of officialdom on a scale far greater than we know now, or have ever known before. Canada cannot be socialized without mass production of bureaucrats and officials." The Free Press says it quite agrees with Mr. Caldwell about the extension of bureaucracy in Canada. lt also has felt some alarm. “But," it adds, “wt believe, and the vast majority of Canadians do mo, that this new development in our national life is an inevitable and necessary Wartime devc-lopfncnt. We cannot wage war on the vast scale we are doing it without accept- ing the fact that we must be controlled and regimcntctl.

Total loss since January 1 was $15,356,588 as com- parcd with the figure of'$I1,78I,720 for the same period last year. u u o a The bcerage is at work to save its output from reduction. Premier Godbout is in Ottawa this week explaining why it would not be in the interest of the Liberal Party to interfere un- duly with the brewery business. According to a contemporary Quebec politicians are watching anxiously to know whether Mr. Godbout will get concessions, for Liberal politicians are watching with increasing anxious eyes the ebb and flo\v of chances as by-elections draw inevit- ably nearer, and there is no denial that restric- tions on the output of beer would play their part on election day. o o o o Second frontierers are not at the moment so vociferous. Mr. Walter Duranty, Pulitzer Prize- wmntng news correspondent and specialist in Russian affairs, told a. meeting of the People's Forum, Montreal, that the need for s. European second front is not so imperative now as it was two months ago. The critical period in the Rus- sian strugglc occurred two months ago when the command of the Volga was at stake. Since navigation of the river closes by the end of this month, anyway the necessity of a second front is not as strong. o m o n Angelica Kauffman, R. A., artist, born this date, I741; a. native of Switzerland, but worked first in Italy, afterwards removing to London where she set up a studio, attaining fame for her classic and myth- ological pictures as well as her portraits of dis- tinguished citizens; she was a friend of Rey- nolds and Goldsmith, and her salon was at- tended by the leading lights of the literary, art- istic and political world; she was the first lady to be elected a full-fledged Academician. n: m s s- ludge Jonah Goldstcin of New York has a sense of humor. In response to a subpoena for jury service, which had been forwarded to n man in the army, he received the following com- munication : “Roses are red Violets are blue I'm in the army Nuts to you." Asked if he would hold the soldier in con- tempt, the judge laughed. “He has my bless- ing. Excused from jtirylkduty.” w u- Under the consolidated war services regula- tions dealing with compulsory military training, there is a general tightening up of the require- ments for university students, it is stated in the McGill Daily. Exemption of graduate students has been abolished and a student who does not do satisfactory work at the university, or who fails to pass his examinations, can be called up. Students who remain at their studies are pri- vileged to do so, but abuse of the privilege will result in its withdrawal, the publication points out. _ n- o n- u To find the real cradle of the Prussian spirit one has to forget Berlin and go cast to the lands beyond the Vistula. In the thirteenth century the Knights of the Teutonic Order overcame the heathens of East Prussia and established a very powerful state there. It was there that the characteristic Prussian spirit as we know it today was developed, with its good and bad points-its great efficiency, devotion to state, its high sense of public duty, and, on the other hand, its utter disregard of the rights of min- orities or other people, its intolerance, and ram- pant militarism. Marienburg is in itself a very noble monument of the Teutonic Order, but unfortunately the cradle of “the Prussian spirit" rampant today. s m w: s The United States Navy has escorted more than 600,000 troops overseas “without the loss of a single soldier." “Our great trouble today is in making people realize how many fronts we actually have ," Captain Lovette said in an ad- dress in Chicago. The supply line-fronts he said, are to Russia, the British Isles, the Aleutians, Australia, Hawaii, Africa, Far East and India for China. Of the long northern supply route to Russia the captain Naid: “That probably is the most important front of the Atlantic. It is the fearful route -— the dreadful, the terrible route where a survivor cannot live longer than five minutes. We have lost heavily on this front. But if 5o per cent of our cargo gets through, then it is worth it. The front must be stipplicrl." n- o s- The Brewers Industrial Foundation of Can- ada. has started a direct mailing campaign in view of the fact that several provinces now prohibit newspaper liquor advertising. “Pro- vincial and federal authorities have, within the last two years or so, been subjected to intense pressure by certain groups who seek to pro- mntc change in the present laws affecting the salc of alcoholic beverages," writes tl1c Founda- tion iu a communication. "In doing so they have made specific charges of a kind which de- mand an answer, some of which bear direct relation to the industry. The direct mail cam- paign is to clarify misundcrstanrlings which ollu-rwisc might (lcvcloji. The industry na- turally feels that it is at least entitled to de- fend itself."

By the tone cf discussions and from sev- ings heard on the streets. etc. ds- sntisfaction has originated from certain iesldents and shopkeeper. on Kent St. I do agree that bettc lighting is required on Kent St. a well as on most other streets 1n ou city, However some cf the argu nients used are rather Childish, an should hardly be considered by on City Fathers. It is suggested 11m. the lights installed between Gt.

I am n strong advocate of improvements n11 around our city and certainly the lighting on Grafton St. is a vast fmprovement. However I would not be so jealous or so 1t. seems that I would advocate tearing do\vn the lights on one street and re- moving than to my own. Howcvci- 1f the Council listen to such child- lsh arguments tonight being l-Inll- - owern would be a good night for them together with those on Kent St. who advocate it to tear them down and remove them to Kent St. The only trouble with this argu- ment would be that Prince or some other street residents might in- vade Kent 8t. and remove them to their street. 1 Im.

In the last World Vlar t-he “d1_i;s"of the v United 5.9.7.95 succeeded in passing that infamous nnendment which Presid- em, Hcovei- termed a “noble ex- pei-hueut" and thereby plun ed that countr into on orgy or cr e and "gangs erism" such as the Americ- an people had, heretoturc never known. Just a few months before the Armistice of 191B, those Am- erican "drys", flushed with the ex- altation which was a natural result of their easy victory. had succeed- ed in consolidating their forces for a frontal attack on King Nicotine. Had they succeeded in launching their onnpalgn before the cessothm of hostilities the American douzn- boys in their trenches at Chateau terry would have been denied the solace of a cigarette, We can see the some blind. nar- row. and unressoning forces at work in this country at the ure- sent time, and for that; matter, in all other countries upon which this war has laid its blood-dripping hands. There is, of course. s reason. War removes with e sudden wrench the youth from all the social and poltical activities of the countryvat. war. The residue, long since dried up and even crystallized consists. for the most part of a. few 01d fogles, both male and female, who have no vital stakes in the war since they are not represented m it, by children of their own flesh and blood. Yet those are they who, generally, hove the most to say. Living in a mental world, long since (lead, they continue to weave rhelr fcmtllzed plans for the sucfiil and cultural upllftment of humanity. Their day, their era, has passed. But in their self-satisfied com- plncency they continue to imagine that constructive leadership is 51111 in the r hand.
