Christmas Seal Campaign The Tuberculosis Seal sales, which have been an annual [ire-Christmas event since 1931, have grown larger each year, but so too have the number of tutpaticnts needing super- vision. Even \\'lu'1| the peak of this upward trend il reached thcrc will still be need of ever- growing Christmas Seal stiles. The seals this year are of especially attractive design and are ideal for the t111l)L‘lil5lll11L‘l1l of parcels, cards and letters.

Mr. Fairweatltens authority, that the railways are well equipped to cope with such conditions. The control of transportation. he entphndzcd, is handled by democratic methods which are in sharp contrast to the bureaucratic methods of the dictatorships. Potato Crop Estimates According to figures released by the Domin- ion Bureau of Statistics, the potato crop in Caitada is the shortest since 1910. Production in October was estimated at 38,875,000 hundred- weight and the Nove-mber production estimate shoxvs that there has been a decline of 3,555,- 000 hundrcdweight and the (la-crease was con- fined mostly to Utitttrio and Quebec where the harvest season is slightly later titan in the Mari- time Provinces. In the Maritime Provinces there was an ag- gregate increase in estimate over October with the increase set at 579,000 hundredweight. All of the Maritime Provinces showed increases with the estimated production in October set at 4,937,000 ltundredivcight and the November estimation set at 5,030,000 hundredweight. Of the three Maritime Provinces New Bruns- wick shows the largest number of acres in pro- duction and also the largest estimated produc- tion. Princc Fdtvard Island shows an increase of planting this past season over 1038 and also an increase- in protltution. In 1038, in Prince Iidtvzirrl l>lrttvll there wnt- plantctl 24.000 acres with th¢ fitwaflttlflitlll ,\(‘l at 4.070.000 hundred- weight and this vcnr there was pltttitetl 37,000 acrcs and thr vstitttntcd production has been set at 4.440900 huh-lmhvcigltt.

The illogicality of regarding the gulf coast and nearly all of Nova Scotia (and all of Prince Edward Island) as belligerent, and yet exempting the ports of Montreal and Que- bec, which can only be reached by passing through these waters, will not be mentioned by Ottawa. Official opinion there welcomes the revised regulations as a. calculated indiscretion to help this country. s: EDITORIAL NOTES = Sir William Orpcn born this date, 1878. l‘ I fi l Now foxmen's eyes will be all turned to Bor- den where the three days’ show of both register- ed and unregistered foxes opens today.

When the customs officer said Fur- bert should know the regulations, he testified, Fttrbert told him hc was only a new ntcitilrer “and 1181f th€ time I don't know what they're doing up there.” ' n- u a a The Prime Minister in a letter to the Chris- tion Social Council of Canada assured the coun- cil of the sympathy and support of the Canadian Government for the council's efforts to protect Canadian citizens of German origin in their civil rights. “Canada is today engaged in a struggle for freedom,” he \vrotc_ “By freedom we mean. above all else, the right of ordinary men and wo- men, so long as they respect the freedom 0f 0th- ers, to live their lives in their own way without the fear of oppression or the menace of tyranny. The persecution of our fellow-Canadians, or, in- deed, any discrimination against them, because of their German blood or German speech would be a betrayal of the very cause we are fighting to uphold. It would be a threat to the unity in freedom which is the most precious quality 0t the Canadian people." u u a n- According to I-lerr Otto Strasscr, s former Nazi chief, now hunted by Hitler, the Munich HCpIOSIOH in the Buergerbrau beer hall just after the Chancellor had finished speaking was the work of the Gestapo, and a German revolt against Nazism will probably break out in the FPYmK Qf I940. Strasser, now in Paris, does not credit reports of an impending revolutionary outbreak in Germany. “It wrill take time f0} that," be said. “IIigher officers of the Reichs- wehr are too subservient to Hitler to take part. Rut the Nazis have many enemies among the colonels, maiors and subordinate officers. For a revolt to be successful in the Reich, three things wtill be needed. First, Germans who still believe in Hitler must feel the horrors of war: second, the Reich must suffer its first military FPYEFSPS. and, finally privalions in the country must become more acute.
