U U U i Warning of’ a further reduction in food ra- tions, the British Press calls for a. more vigor- ous anti-submarine campaign and greater pro- duction of home grown foods. The Daily Mirror told Britons "you must eat less," while the Daily Mail said "we cannot expect the ample and varied quotas we have received in the past. \Ve may have to accept further ration cuts and I. reduction in points values." u a u a Sir Joseph Banks, “Father of Australia," born this date I743; was distinguished botanist who rcompanicd Captain Cook 0n his first voyage of discovery, and on his return from Botany Bay (which he named) was mainly re- sponsible for the first colonization of Australia which previously had been known only as a penal settlement; was president of the Royal Society for forty-one years; Banksica shrubs were named aftcr‘iiiiii by Linnaeus n- u a The Prime Minister" of Australia, Mr. Curtin, leaves no doubt about the seriousness of the year that lies before the Pacific nations. IIe says z-“The war in the Pacific is at a crucial stage. I cannot outline what appears to be ahead, for that would profit only the enemy, but I give a. stern warning that the Govern- ment can see only a hard road, with events, the prospects of which are far from bright, cast- ing a heavy shadow on the New Year. Reso- iutcncss must be the keynote of Australian char- actcr. I am confident it will be manifest through- out tlic land. Otir history will be written in slavery unless we concentrate on the task at hand to the exclusion of all that is paltry, miser- able, and self-seeking." i I O I Mrs_ Churchill, broadcasting in London on behalf of her “Aid tn Russia" Fund. said that the total of the fund there was now close on £2,250,000. That, she said, was a grand result. Nearly 3.000 tons of supplies had been dispatch- ed to Russia. A few of the items received and distributed by the Russian Red Cross were 15o tons of drugs, 97 X-ray units, 1,500,000 surgical instruments, half a million blankets Ind over a million garments. "But whatever help we have given is only a few drops in the ocean of their needs. I have a confession to make. I come before you tonight in debt. The fund is over spent. We have, you see, to place our orders a long time ahead, and it will actually take six months before the orders we give now can be completed." l I i I How goes the war? is a question on every- one‘s lips. There are solid reasons for Chur- chill’s confidence following the triple achieve- ment of Russia, Tripolitania and Casablanca. The shape of the war has been hammered into a pattern of the Allies’ own design. Both in- side Germany and outside Europe the situa- tion is moving toward a single supreme des- tiny. And while we do not count the savage battles to come as inevitable victories, we are allowed the hope that our steady growth from desperation to strength, combined with Ger- many's decline from titillating victory to grave peril, shows eventual victory in a rising light. But we still may have a long way to go before the objective is reached. it m u r “I can nee no reason why we cannot look forward to an era of expansion during which our population is increased at least five fold,” said Mr_ Ford S. Ktimpt, Dominion Life Pre- sidciit at the annual meeting yesterday. “A wise selective immigration policy after the war vigorously and carefully administered, seems to be essential. We have developed industrial platits, trained thousands to be skilled mechan- ics, our farms have the productive capacity to fccd a much larger nation and urgently need an assured market. The countries improverish- ,cd by war will need our primary products to aii extent where ruthless exploitation must be iivnidrrl.
