Why are we thus ignored. after repeated assur- ances that ccriztiti wzir contracts would be made available to a local cottccrn? Apparently it ll not a question of money, because plants on the mainland have barn assisted to the extent of the antouius zibrwe specified. Is it because the powers-tlutt-bc are indifferent to the interests of Charlottetown, which refused to return Liberal candidates in the last provincial election? There is the proverbial “nigger in the ivoodpile" some- where, and it is up to our federal representa- tives, and those who stipportcd them, to smoke hint out. This Province, as Colonel Ralston re- cently conceded, is in the forefront so far as per capita contribution in manpower to Canada's \\ ar effort is concerned. \\'hen it comes to war contracts, we seem to be left high and dry. Our only outspokt-ti champion at Ottawa so far has been the Lender of the Opposition. Is it not possible for our own representatives to get be- hind Mr. Hanson in his plea for fair treatment for this Province? Tax Free Co-Operatives The fact that ag r i cu 1 t u ral co-opera- fives are tax-free as for as the federal corpora- tion income tax is concerned, says an Ottawa correspondent, was news to many members of Parliament and no doubt to many other people. But everyone around (lttatva knows about it now. This seems to be the upshot of the recent flurry of agitation over the question of taxing eo-operatives . Not long ago a district income tax official laid down the ruling that all co-operatives who dis- tributed dividends to stockholders as well as to patrons would be subject to income tax. The legal point involved turned upon the distinction between regular joint stock companies whose profits accure to shareholders and legitimate co- operatives whose profits accrue as patronage dividends. Some ctr-operatives, it appears, in- clude a small element of stockholding in their let-ups. The attitude of federal tax collectors, whose sense of smell for any collectible tax sums has been sharpened to razor edge by long years of experience, is that every person and every or- ganization that is taxable must pay taxes. But co-operative are specifically exempt and there has never been any doubt about that. The ruling made. by the western tax official has not been sustained by the department and it has not creat- ed any change in the situation. The co-ops could have discovered that by consulting the experts 0f the national revenue department. But the national revenue and finance depart- ments begun to be flooded with resolutions and letters of protest. Moreover, the mail of members of Parliament bceztttic- swollen with similar pro- tests. Everyone begznt to ask-z “What is all this about the pUUlS and cit-rrpcfilllvcs ?" The special exemption enjoyed by the co-operatives was never in danger, it is leatrnctl, and the not result has been a great dt-zil of attention attracted to the fact that it m" Provincial Variations figures recently released from Ottawa show gross disparity betivecn the. provinces with re- spect to increased prosperirv rising out of Can- arm's war effort.

Vere is tlie plnini-st possible proof thril Dominimi policies- can and do create taxable cal)- acitv which varies widely as between provinces; and that this results under uur present system of i-m taxation in wide variations in provincial rev- enues. If the Dominion Treasury was the sole beneficiary of taxation levied upon taxable cap- acity arising from Dominoin policy, there would be no cause for complaint, though there would still remain substantial advantages for the more favorably situated provinces. “The financial proposals 0f the Royal Com- mission on Dominion provincial Relations would effect such a readjustment, When the figures of national income, in its provincial distribution for the first year of the war are examined, it is easy to see why Mr. Pattullo and Mr. Hep- burn are so hostile to the proposal. They desire to retain the advantages that the present system gives them. This is understandable; but in the days that lie before us, this country will not be able to continue a scheme of taxation which fav- ors some provinces and deprives the Dominion treasury of revenue that would remove these discrepancies between the provinces and give the whole country the benefit of its national activi- ties."

Midnight curfew for li- quor selling in restaurants and night clubs throughout the province including the city of Montreal, and a ban on the retail sale of hard liquor on Sundays are to be included in amend- ments of the Liquor Act to be submitted by way of a Government bill this week. Premier God- bout told his caucus that he saw it as his duty to promote temperance in the province through laws that would be enforced to the letter and with all severity. He asserted that he would rather give up his premiership than fail in what he considered his duty in respect to a stricter control of liquor traffic.

Two young English girls, a couple of years ago, were casting about in I.ondon for some kind of business to engage in. Their combined capital did not amount to much. Iiinally they decided to open a marriage bureau in Bond Street. Their friends were deprccatory, could see no future for such a venture. Today the partners, Miss Heather Jenner and Miss Mary Oliver, have cleaned up a fortune, accord- ing to The London Sunday Express.

When they get married they pay a fnrtlicr fee of £20 each, making a total of £50 a marriage. So far the two girls have brought off 900 marriages. About a quarter of their clients are soldiers or working-class people. These pay only 30s for registration and £5 each when they wed.

Britain Sees It Through Anti-Aircraft ‘Trap’ _ _ Is Waiting for Hitler PAUL A. TllltNllYr- Wai- Editor, New York Post (Copyright, 184i. By New York Pelt. Inc) The members of the British cebint with whom 1 was discussing the ibilltiea of a Omman invas- lon earied ecrou his desk to add his words. “The Germans," he said, "can unleash an air attack three times as powerful as any they have made thus far. arid I am quite sure. they can sustain such an attack for two weeks. ‘Their object," he continued, "would be to disorganlze us by knocking out. certain ports, cripp- ling our au- fields, and creating general panic, if possible. “But; unless such an air attack is launched and proves successful, I don't. believe t ey will ever start their army across the Channel." A cabinet minister. obviously, has access to more information than anyone else in England. We may safely assume, I believe, that his estimate of the Nazi‘ potenlal strik- force is probably the best. ob- ta able. How They'd Face It So I noted his remarks carefully and kept them in mind during my tour of British defense areas and in my conversations with officers of the Army. Navy and RAF. What I wanted to discover. If Possible, were the ways and means whereby Britain planned to deal with such an attack when and if it came. I found out much. but befo;e g0- ing into details I must make two observations: First. no responsible person in Britain pretends to know whether an invasion will actually be attem- pted, much less the date of it. On that point, all are guessing. and You may guess, too. Second, I did not see any secret weapons or mystery devices; I doubt whether any civilian has seen any such thing. If anyone has seen them, he is a. friend of the Gprmatis if he talks about them at. And, now lets get down to facts: One big item which can be pub- lished is this-the full strength o! the British anti-aircraft: defense has never been put forward. There have been some terrific bar-rages, for instance, but nothing like the one that is held in reserve. There are enormous groupings of defen- sive units from which no gun has yet been fired. Awaiting the Hour These main defenses have been held in idleness not because they aren't. ready-for they aze ready- but because the hour for their use has not yet arrived. They are one of the many surprises which are being held in reserve for the Ger- 111E115, They are being saved for the day when Hitler attempts to make good his boast that he will fill the airl with alzpianes. If ever he does that, his losses will be terrific. Meanwhile, these units remain carefully camouflaged and the guns are not discharged because the British do not wish to betray their locations to the enemy. Here is the way the situation was explained to me; "We have set our trap. and it's a big trap, and we are waiting to. catch something big in it. Until the i crisis comes. we are guarding our secret as carefully as we can. In the meantime, we use other de- fense units as fully a5 possible. Also. in the meantime. German planes are getting through to our cities and doing damage. But we ltaye to endure titat. because we are saving the big stuff for the big big day when Hitler really makes his grand effort." I have seen some of this "big stuff" which is being saved for the ' "his day." I feel at liberty to say only one thing about, it: It's there. I was at one point on the British coast where, through a high-pow- ered ghass. you can read the time 0n the clock in the town hall in Boulogne, the English Channel. It is from this general vicinity that. the night-raiding parties take off to land on the French coast, snatch prisoners and haul them back in small boats to Britain. Such raids have been more frequent than reports indicate. but sometimes the "suicide squad" doesn't return at all. To some extent from such raids, but to ii far greater degree from flLDlBne photography. uie British have ascertained that. the so-calied "invasion rte" nearest to Britain are virtualy useless to the Ger. mans because of the incessant pounding of the docks by the RAF‘. (British claims on this point. were fully confirmed to me by French passenkers with whom I made the return trip from Lisbon to the Us.) I mention this matter in this article because part of Britain's do. iensive planning against the great all-out Nazi air attack on Britain is based on the‘ knowledge that R451“ bilmlllnl ls more effective than the German. Part of the greater efficiency of the RAF may be due to better iqlllnmeni. but I am inclined to be- lieve it. chiefly due to better morale. As evidence on this int, I oiier the fact that. towns trig between Inndon and the east coast are bombed far more often by Nazi planes headed back for Germany than by planes coming in from Germany. This can only mean that. the Germans were either unable to teach their objective or Abandon the attempt. In either case. night. after nlBht, Nazi planes unload their bomb country villages while flying top- speed for home. One interesting result of this has been to can” movie livinfflin these towns to move into ndon-"ior safety," its one nice old l . sitting com. fortnbly in a m stone hotel assured inc, adding. trenqflllly. that. she slept better in London. Flirt-hei- evidences of bad German and lower morale is a lively toplc' of conversation among the young lads of the RAF on whom Britain counts, in the final showdown, to do the real work ol pectin: off the mass attack. An an RAE‘ fighter station, some- whe.e north of Inndori. I sot. chatting with the boys around a big pot-bellied stove in their barracks. Of fifteen filers in that barracks» two were French, one Polish. one Czech and two Dutch. ‘the squad- ron ieader was a Canadian and the‘ wing commander in charge of the entire station was an Irishman- the oldest man in the RAF still actually taking the air to lead his men in combat. (He pointed out his plane with obvious affection; the plane and “the boys" were all the family he had.) ‘The Germans are lousy marks- men," Iwas informed. “Not only that. but they don't know what they're trying to do. This place has been bombed a halt domen times. They knocked the hangar to bits, but there havnt been any planes 1n the hangar for months." ‘ Which ls quite true. The planes were lodged, slitgiy. in snncibag shelters and scattered far and wide over many acres. I have given you the foregoing quotation for a. special reason. I don't know myself whether the, Germans are really good or bad fliers; neither does the young lad in the RAF, really. for his own experience is not, very great. But what. the poy said Ls still import,- ant, because it reveals his own morale and the spirit in which he goes o to fight. “Certainly, we'll beat them." said another, in response to my flat. question. "We've beaten them al- leady. Last September when they started out for England they came over by the hundred. Sometimes we were outnumbered 25 to l. But even at phat. we've cured them of trylvs any more big raids by airy- llght. If we get. anywhere nearly even odds we'll smear them." Others agreed. Yes, the Germans were tough enough. But not lliers, really. and their planes were inferior. Hlzher officers in the RlA-F were more restrained. Extremely proud of the boys who do the actual fly- lIlE and fighting, confident they could beat the Germans 1f they met even on terms of two Nazis to one British, these older officers took no Pains to hide their mterest 1n this cqlmtryls move to aid Britain. ‘Get the stuff over here as fast as you can," was the burden of their remarks. "We are going m need lt-lf not for the ’ ‘ of 5281311“. at least. téo get the war n. But if they had any doubt they were ultimately going to win the W813 I Cqllldlft find any trace 0t it. And I did get hints that the RAF‘ had certain measure; in reserve, dovetailed into the as yet unused ground defenses which I referred to earlier in this article.
