It will be noted that Cologne, which has been bombed more than loo times, is still being bombed. The same is true of Bremen, of Mann- heim, of Lutlivigshafcn. From time to time the bombers return to pour fresh destruction upon these ruined cities.

"Bomber Command may have to return to Essen again to check any attempts at partial re- construction, but the results of those attacks were catastrophic.” Let us hope that the Berlin raids, described as “the war's greatest offensive against enemy morale,” will have the same salutary effect. — EDITORIAL NOTES .- judging by yesterday's unbounded enthusi- asm, "the flowing-tide" is with the Progressive Conservatives. a it a it A great deal of fuss is being made of, and unnecessary free publicity given to the iuusli- iooni socialist C.C.F.’s, Better concentrate on the magnificent Bracken policies than waste time and space on socialistic eccentricities.
