That may be reasonable enough if the Iiogs are to be slaughtered in Montreal, but it seems a bit thick when they are killed, pickled and packed in Halifax and sent directly overseas, with the overseas price to Canadian Bacon Board based on delivery at the Atlantic seaboard. “is it any wonder the Maritime producers are angry after taking the matter up ivith Ot- tavva and getting nowhere?

The Government exipects to rose £200.- 000,000 from this source to help pay the stupendous costs of war. Large incomes have been heavily taxed, but. a SUM/e made by she experts shows that, if they were to pay one hundred cents on the dollar the Government wculd obtain 195s than $150,000 000. so it is necessary to ask all sngle persons reccviilg $750 cr more and all married pcrscns in receipt, of $1,500 or more to contrab- ute.

The heavy niovemoiit of (Jermain trcops into Rumaniu may or may not. be a plind devised by the Nazas for the purpose of concealing their real strategy and in lulfng Bixta n into a false sense of security. Tile marked reduction in the number and cxtent of recent. air raids over Britain may well have been part of this strategy. It is improbable, h.w- ever that the Gomrnment in Lcn- dcn is acting merely ullcn a W691i- latfve interpretation ‘of German troop movemcnts and air procedure. Il may be taken fr glantcd that Britain is being well sCrvEd by l1" own agents in Europe and by friendly citizens in German oc- cupied territories and that. the Pfe- cautlons that. are bEiIlg taken are the result o.‘ something more than guesswork. There is a sugg-Bilnve parallel betnlveen the pres.m posi- tion of Adolf Hitler and that of Napcleh. The Frcnch conqueror knew that he must subdue Britain or fall in everything. He had mas- bertd Europe. His attempt to strike Britain thruugln. Egypt, met wmh d s; ter. Hitler has tried the same tactics by using his Italian ally, and Italy has jailed him.

It were better if the Prime Minister's first conviction. which was shared by at least some 0f his collealzues. had prevailed. and that there had been "no attempt to implement the trp-ovlslons of the report at this me " The threat of the Finance Minis- ter that. because of hhe failure of the conference to take action upcn the Sirols recommendations. it may be necessary for the Dominion w invade provincial taxation fields to finance the war, raises the question as to what won't! have harmened had the Dian outfitted in the report been adopted. Does Mr. Ilslev mean to infer that the implementation of’ the recommendations would have secured to the federal zovernment revenues from whet are now bro- vincial sources which would neatly increase the Domlnionb total in- come? Or does he mean that the sources of revenue which miizht have been handed over b_v the pro- vinces to the Dominion as the re- sult of negotiation will be seized anvwav bv the federal authority? If he Intends to convey the fact that the Ottawa lrovernment had hoped to profit financially at the oxbcnse of’ the provinces through the Slrols plan. then he takes issue with his leader who. in his openink remarks before the conference. de- c'ared that “should the recommen- dations of the report be adopted. it (the federal government) will. at the outset. be called upon to accent an increase in its financial bilrdens.” If he means that the federal taxa- tion authoritv contemplates a raid. m- a series of raids. on the provin- cial field. reirardless of the attitudes of the provinces concerned. then he should be reminded of the stato- meul. nmde bv the Prime Minister. also at the opening of the confor- ence. when he asserted that the Dominion government c0u‘d proceed with its war financini! without seek- ing any rearrangements or adjust- ments with the provinces. but that this course would involve "qravein- enualltles and iniustices." and add- ed: “It is hard to sav l10\V_1l. could. fail to provoke serious discontent and a xveakeninz 0t morale." In the face of this warnlmz. it is difficult to see how the Finance Minister could make the threat that he did. The whole proceedings were marked bv displays of childish h9- haviotn" which must have been re- ceived with disllusl. bv a EYBRL mflIW Canadians. and the onlv hone left is that the meetlne which set out to create a greater decree oi’ national unltv does not achieve an entire- lv opposite result.

For Dr. Manion’s Campaign (The Catholic Record) It had been held as certain that the most, effective way to bring Nazi planes over Ireland was to open the Irish ports to the Royal Navy.

Experienced observers and expert. analysts of war strategy find 1t difficult to explain the motives be- hind thisnew Nazi move. Despite highway barricades thrown up nlmig the Irish coast and the use of air- raid precautions throughout the country, general opinion ls slow to interpret the bombing as the pre- lude to an invasion and occupation o1’ Ireland.
