Thus at the recent dinner tendered in honour of Justice Minister St. Laur- ent we learn, from Mr. King, that the true sec- ret of Mr. St. Laurent's greatness was that he stood by Mr. King. "l do not believe," said the Prime Minister, "that it has ever been realized how near we came, in November, i944, to having no govern- ment at all in Canada. I shall always be- lieve that it was the firm and statesmanlike stand taken, in that hour of crisis, by the Min- ister of Justice, his clear vision, his wise judg- ment, his quick decision, and his persuasive powers which more than any other single influ- ence helped to ensure the continuance of the government, and to avert an appalling disaster. . l am perfectly certain that had Mr. St. Laurent withdrawn his support of myself, or, in- deed wavered in that support, l should have had no alternative but to tender my resignation and with it the resignation of the Ministry." Which leads the Ottawa Journal to remark: "Whether the resignation of Mr. King's Government in i944 would have been of cosmic significance, as Mr. King here professes to think, must be left to the historians. Our own idea in the meantime is that if such a thing had come-and we doubt that there ever was much danger of it—Churchill and Roosevelt and Stalin, and even some government in Canada, would have managed to muddle along." 0n Speech-Making The other day an alert Canadian news- paperman ran across some of Winston Chur- chill's preparatory note-making for a speech. He wrote: "They probably proved a little disillus- loning to Canadians who supposed that this peerless orator’s phrases dripped trippingly off tho tongue without preparation, by a process of sheer inspiration. As usual, then, the work of genius turns out to be mostly work. The great Churchillian phrase, ‘blood, sweat and tears’ came itself out of that very process, but the mark of its greatness, as of any piece of art, is its apparent spontaneity. Just as Michelangelo's paintings look as if they had been tossed off ef- fortlessly in a casual moment, Mr. Churchill's speeches always seem to be born only when the speaker rises to his feet. The great difference between Mr. Churchill's oratory and that of other current statesmen is that it shows n0 traces of its laborious origin." These are words of wisdom, to be pondered by all who are ambitious of shining as public speakers. Too frequently people who would dis- claim any thought of having the ability of a Churchill, try to make speeches without prepar- ation of any kind. Theirs is an intolerable im- position upon an audience, yet almost every public function produces bores of this kind. They get away with it because no one has the discourtesy to tell them what the intelligent section of their hearers "o actually thinking. Most long speeche are improved im- mensely by being summarized, which is the rea- son why speeches frequently read better than they sound. Why then, it may be asked, doesn't the orator do the summarizing when he speaks? The answer is mental laziness, or incapacity to distinguish between thoughts and mere empty phrases. Brevity, which Shakespeare called the soul of wit, is too laborious an achievement for these aspirants. They are a far remove from Mr. Churchill-still farther from Abraham Lin- coln, who labored for hours over his famous Gettysburgh Speech, which a short-hand writer could easily_hove reported in full on the back of a post-card. lire Free Citizens The Ministry of External Affairs of the Canadian Government has intimated to the Pol- ish Legation at Ottawa that it had no right to compel 4,000 Polish soldiers entering Canada ta logior at the Logotion and on insistence, Con- sular recognition would be withdrawn. This action would seem to be fully in accord with Canadian opinion. Nations of other countries may, if they wish, register at the Legation of their own country, but they cannot be forced to do so under Canadian law. Clearly the Can- adian decision gives tho Polish soldiers and thousands of others the right to disregard the ordor. Tho decision, it is pointed out, goes much further than merely rebuffing a satellite gov- ernment of Moscow in Warsaw. lt is a step boon rampant in two wars, when Hitler laid it down, and Japan, too, that onco a German or a Japanese, always so, that first allegiance was not to tho country of adoption but to "tho native land. Wo don't want Canadians with such hyph- onoto ideas. It is boliovod that most of the Polish soldiers-including those who como to Prince Edward l|lond--aro hero to stay; they rovolt at tho choractor of tho ."froo" govorninont there has boon ostablishod in Poland and, if loft to their own dovicos and rosourcos, will malio good Canadians. ln any ovont, they como out horo to in froo, and they aro froo, from Polish allegi- anco undor tho dictum of our government. It woaldgbo passing strango, in fact a surrender of oovgroignty if tho Canadian government had mod, ovon tacitly, of tho Polish Legation ii would almost be like a sovereignty within a sovereignty. lt all goes to show, however, how tho Communists are‘working. ilot Cheering . On the whole, Mr. llsley's recent address was ‘not cheering. He apparently sought to convince Canadians that their tax burden; are light. They are not light. They are the heav- iest in the world, says The Printed Word. Mr. llsley pointed out that, while after the latest war, taxes have been reduced, taxes were increased after the other war. He uppgnr; to have forgotten that, back in l94l and i942 when he was laying it on without mercy (and with lit. tle complaint from the public) he was saying that the heavier the taxes during the war the easier it would be to reduce taxes after the war. No tax which starts at 25 per_cent and rapidly rises to _50 per cent can be said to be light on those with small and moderate incomes. On larger incomes the rate rapidly becomes con. fiscatory. The remark about taxes after the other war may impress a few who don't remember that the highest taxation between l9l9 and i930 was trifling and, moreover, that the other war con. élfliléd froiri ‘August, i9l4, to April 30, i918, be. ore any citizen had to pay a cent of inmme tax. lt was better to tax during the wnr rim" after, but the present and apparent inrenrlon of cutting faxes by the least possible amount i5 not keeping faith with the earners. aackward, turn backward, O Time in your flight, estore us the days when taxes were light. r- EDITORIAL NOTES — Rebellion i837. in Canada broke out this date a n o or lt is hardly credible, but we have the Bur- eau Statistics’ word for it, that the cost of living We'll’ "P dficimal three per cent last month, and 7.2 above who: it was a year ago. k fl h‘ At the Board of Trade meeting in The c_l'°',l°llel°‘"1 lhls evening. o delegation from Kings County Board of Trade will be heard relative to the_service being rendered by the Maritime Electric Co.

The job was done with a gentle 081M198 altogether delightful to watch. ‘There is reason and then-e ls instinct: but also there is some menial pcnv- cr‘ for which we have no name be- tween the two.

TWO thousand years ago Julius Caesar stood up in his chariot. ou an English battlefield and looked with horror- as. giant rings ran into battle with their mas- [erg and leaped at, the throats of his warriors. More than 500 years ago French soldiers at the Battle of Aglncourt stood back ln fear at. a. masilffi that growled defiance at ‘them over the wounded body of Sir IPiCTS Legh until the English sold- ‘icrs carried him to safetv. Caesar was so impressed with the E0855“ masiifts that he took a number of them to Rome and put them to combat, in the ring against all other fighting dogs. The mastlffs killed them all. and Caesar made them fight. bulls, bears, lions, tigers and. gladiators with spears and tridents. When the mastlff was worsted. he died with his teeth in the opposing animal's throat. The English mastiff ls a big, pdwerful dog. weighing up if) 200 pounds, ITIGHSUIlDg l0 inches around the foreleg, which is two inches more than the average man's wrlsi. In modem days he ls used as a watchdog, being hostile to strangers, butdcciie and friendly toward his master. A few days ago a group of dog-lovers met in a London hotel to see what. they could do to save the English mastlff from extinction. There are only eight pure-breds left in the country-two males and slx females and all old. Ii was reported that there are only '10 in the United States. and it is hoped to be able to buy some of them and revive the breed in England. It ls a matter of historical im- portance that the strange markings 0n the Fraser Canyon rocks at Spuzzum should be siudled by an ethnographic expedition, as Com- missioner Parsons of the BC police suggests. British Museum and Eur- openn authorities are sure the markings are not Ogham. the Wei-sh form of the Runlc writings used in the fifth century. but the sim- ilarity to those ancient crytographo lo sufficiently notable to warrant further investigation.

The location of these markings, on rocks 1,900 feet above the river at Spuzzum, is o point in itself that is worth some research. —Virnoouver Province. Alexander C.

Most of the price adjustments over- the past, year have been in the for-m of straight, price increases rather than subsidies. Indeed. in conformity with the policy of or- derly decontrol enunciated by the Prime Minister last Jonuarv, these subsidies are now being reduced or removed "step bv step. subject only to the needs of maintaining reasonable stability in the level of prices and living costs."

For this reason. out. of farm- ers‘ net. income over the war years, it has been necessary to make large withdrawals for new capital equipment and for debt repay- ment. There is. for instance, con- siderable evidence of g marked re- duction in mortgage debt, par- ticularly in the Prairie Provinces. A survey by the Dominion Mort- gage and Investments and Asso- ciation showed a reduction there between 193'! and the end of 1945 of 60 per cent in the amount owing on mortgages and agreement: for sale, and it is assumed that. since farmers are likely to liquidate cur- rent indebtedness before long-term indebtedness, total farm debt in the Prairie Provinces has declined at least in this proportion. The result. and it is one which augurs well for postwar readjust- ment, ls a substaiitlsl reduction in the yearly burden of interest payments; according to the esti- mates of farm expenses in tho chart. debt charges in the Prairie Provinces, which accounted for $35 millions in 1998, were reduced to less than 915,5 millions in 1945. and in the rest of Canada, they dc- cllned over the sari-e period from some $21 millions to about $14.5 mil- lions. To some extent also deferred needs for machinery, have been made good. In each of'the years 1940 to 1944 (excluding 19B, when wartime restrictions on output caused a, marked reduction) sales of farm machinery were in the neighbourhood of $50 millions, and in 1945 they amounted to nearly $64 millions, as against an average in the immediate pro-war yenrs of some $30 millions. Undoubtedly there still exist very large needs for machinery and for repairs and replacements to build- ings and equlpmen: which could not be met during the war be- cause of shortages at sIIDDllGS. How- cver this may be, the farming com- munity is entering the postwar per- lad lri n relatively strong posi- lion. Debt has beer, sharply re- duced. there has been no wild iri- crease in land values of the sort that characterized the last post- war period, and. ln contrast to previous periods o! great. expan- sion, fixed costs have been kept down and indeed reduced.
