(On Active Service) “The Strongest Memory is Weaker Tlrqn the Weakest Ink.‘ TuusnXiTTtFFiit-Tzi-ius ' A Plea For Unity ll ' . It l‘ 1 sflbelmfi thought for Canadians at home that those who ‘return from service over- seas declare that disumty 1s a phenomenon of the home front and not of the battlefront" says the Montreal Gazelle. “Within recent iweeks ‘we have heard two voices express this same senti- ment. One was that of an English-Canadian Pillar» Mall?!‘ I. Alex Edmison, a Montrrzil iawyfr. and former alderman for St. George ward, who was addressing a Montreal club l-k said that there was no disunity on D-Day, when Prench-speakmg and English-speaking soldiers M! ii by side on the invasion beaches. There has bccn no disunity sincc, amid all tl1e changes and chances of 3, strenuous calnpagfinh I\or 1s there any disumty among the Canadian soldiers crowded into the prison camps of the 0119111)’. Nor is there any disunity among the Canadian soldiers lying in the military hospit- als. Maia: Edmison concluded his address with an appeal to Canadians at home to see to it that the men who have served a11d suffered in unity should not return to a disunited Canada. The other voice was that of Lt.-Col. Hugues Lapomtc, Federal member of Parliament for Lotbinicre, and son of the late Rt. Hon. Ernest Lapointe. Speaking in the House of Commons, he asked the members to listen while he related one incident which had occurred in France. lrle had commanded a company of the Regiment dc la Chaudiere which had landed in Normandy 0n D-Day, and by morning half of his men had been 10st. He sent a message for reinforcements. Bu’ it turned out that the boat carrying the reinforce- ments for the Chaudieres had been sunk by the enemy. 5o his company was reinforced by men from the Queen's Own Rifles of Toronto, from the Regina Rifles, and from the North Shore Regiment of New Brunswick. All thesc men were glad and proud to join the Chaudieres and the whole company faced the enemy as one man. "That night," said LL-Col. Lapointe, "I was thinking to myself, ‘I wonder how many people in Canada would believe such a thing could be true'." “The final appeal of Lt.-Col. Lapointe to the people at home is the same as the appeal of Major lidmison. “Surely," he said, “if the men at the front can achieve this national unitv and attain this spirit of brotherhood the peo- ple back in Canada . . can fight the war on the home front follmvingthe example set for them by our Canadian forces overseas. . . If here in Canada we cannot achieve a community of spirit; if we cannot learn to understand one another better, thcn the hardships, the miseries and the losses we shall have suffered during this war may well have been in vain." Faced with such evidence and with such appeals, what are we on Canadafs home front to do? There is one thing we may do first of all, and that is to ask ourselves why it is that we are in suc‘. tinenviable contrast with those whose servic: is so much more urgent and exacting than ou’ own. “Certainly o11r horde front opportunities and duties are pressing upon us. They lie before ns as a challenge. 111.1,. by our tinity can the chal- lenge be met, and only by meeting the challenge will we find our tinity.” But the Gazelle neglected to add: “Equality of responsibility connotes equality of service. each for all and all for each." Teachers Salaries The Gallup Poll‘s most recent survey of Car.- ldiaxi public opinion relates to the very live question of teachers’ salaries. The reaction of the average person is the same in each of the nine provinces so far as common school teach- ers are concerned. the gleaned opinions being about two to one that this class 0f public servant is underpaid. Public opinion does not seem to have developed so strongly in favor of an i1:- crease of remuneration to high school teachers, although a considerable cross-section of senti- ment i11 eight of the nine provinces favors more generous treatment of those engaged in sec- ondary teaching. The majority vote in flvor of better pay for public school teachers was almost two to one everywhere, but was largest in British Col- ttm-bia, where seven out of ten voters thought common school teachers underpaid. It is inter- esting in this connection to note that the scale of pay for teachers of all classes in British Columbia is the highest for all Canada. The fact that 70 pcr cent of the vote from there favors still higher salaries, shows a peculiar alertness on the part of the people of the coast province to the value of public instruction. In Quebec the vote was 67 per cent of those in- terviewed; in (Jntario 57 per cent; 0!! llll! Prairies 6C‘- pcr cent, and i11 the Maritimes 62 per cent. These expressions of opinion relat- ed, however, only to the common school teacher. With regard to the salaries of high school teachers, the survey shows an almost even div- ision of public opinion on the question as to whether the basis of pay of this group is high enough. Nor was there so large a vote -obtain- ed on this question as in that relating to the pay of common school teachers, a consnllerable proportion of those interviewed being unde cided". On the whole, the survey shows a verv definite and widespread conviction across Can- ada that teachers of every class are tmdcrpatd. and that the catisc of popular education would be promoted materially if there were an upward revision of all such scales of pay. fin: cuamnmrrowu GUARDIAN EDITORIAL NU It) Remember, from now on. 1945. it!!!

On its work depends to a great extent the future of the crofters of the Scot- tish Highlanders.

I 1e tun The Free Iircnch commentator, a former Mitiister of justice and known in Brussels be- fore the war for his resolute hostility towards the Nazis, gave regular nightly comment on the war situation and on conditions inside He!» gium, giving his people reasons for hoping and bidding them not despair; to hold on and trust in the Allies. It was this man, Victor dc Lavc- laye, who originated the broadcasting 0f the \'- sign. He had heard that Belgian children were scribbling thelcttcrs “RAT” n11 the walls. aurl he had the idea of suggesting to them a single letter which could be chalked up quickly and easily. He chose the letter Vl-Iirench “Vic- toire'_’, Flemish "Vrijheitl." He proposed it to his listeners in a broadcast on IZUIUHF)’ 14, 1941. On February 1, the suggestion was included in Flemish. All the world knows how the idea kindled the imagination of those under the Nazi yoke, and equally of those jilanning an~l working from outside to overthrow the Nazis, till it spread like a. magic message throughout Europe. n- m A boy drummer, only ten years old, caused something of a sensation in a recent BBC "Var- iety Band Box" performance. The boy, Victor Fcldman, took part with his two brothers, lllontv playing the clarinet and Robert the accordion. During the war the three have given a great number of concerts for the troops. and in aid of war charities. The measure of the drum- mer’s success may be gauged by the fact that what was formerly the Fcldman Swing Trio lns now become known as the Victor Feldman Trio. Victor, we learn from his father, is a self- taught drummer. He began. at six years of age. to try tr accompany his brothers-mu a drnnr. bought at a popular sixpcnny chain store. With- in a year, he was not only appearing on the platform with them-he began in an all-star variety programme in aid of the R.A.F. Ren- cvolcnt Fund-but was being ilCClilllllfll by “]azz" fans as a “drumming genius," having g n rhythm."

Sir Stafford Cripps, the Minister of Aircraft Production, has already airnoitnccd that the Government have accepted,’ 1n prin- ciple, the Committees recommendation. The primary purpose of the college should be to provide a high grade engineering. technical and scientific training in aeronautics to fit CltlLlCIIiS fur leadership 1n the aircraft industry, civil av:- aton, the services, educatioii and research. l4 should also provide shorter courses for special- ists in particular subjccts, refresher courses. and a genera‘.

We have lately had occasion tn examine the baptismal records of one of the oldest of Eastern On- tano parishes and have been struck by the simplicity of the names which the early hettlers of this part of Canada gave their chil- dren. By 1820-30, 1t would appear, the people of Leers and Grenville had departed from some of the perpostcrous names that the Lo- yallsts bore and often inflicted on their children. We have 1n these- records little repetition of the Jcholadas, Benonls, Comforts. L1- berty. Abiathars, Adonlranls. Icha- bods and ‘so m1. of the Loyalist per- iod. Instead. this later generation inclined to extreme simplicity 1n the matter of names. Few chlld- reu received more than one and such names as John. James, Anna, Wllllflm. Samuel. Sarah, Esther, Margaret, Thomas, Eliza. George and Henry predominated. If there were combinations they usually consisted of such simple names as Thomas William, Christopher James, Emily Augusta, and Eliza Jane. - Brockvllle Recorder 11nd Times. y's manufactured goods are not wanted here, but Britain and the Allled nations should make Germany pay by taking from her tne raw materials which are needed in excess of their produc- tion.
