Jan. l8 —-(CP) — A plea. for the admission of a rea- sonable number of persecuted Eu- ropean refugees to Canada and a protest against the dissemination of Nazi-inspired anti-semitlc pro- pagada in this country were voiced in the House of Commons today by M. J. Coldwell (C. C. F. Rosetown ~ Bigger), speaking in the debate on the Speech from the Throne. Many people talked about stop- ping Communist propaganda. he said. but no one gav-e attention to Nazi propazanda which was spread- ing seeds of discord among Can- adians. Canada weut on expmting nickel and chromium to Germany on most-favored nation terms while the victims of Nazi tenor were denied admission to this country.

Canada. could not open its doors to all who sought admission in the present state of unemploy- merlt and agricultural depression. But Canadian people were warm- hearted and had an opportunity to show their human-itarianlsm. "We are urging.” he said. “that. the Prime Minister take the House into his confidence and say whether this country will re- ceive —llot a large influx, un- regulated, of the victims, because there are 1.5410000 cf them -but that we in this country in com- mcn with other democratic peo- ples will take our fair quota. of those who are suffering from ter- ror ln central Europe." Complete removal of the three- per cent excise tax from all im- ports was urged bv R. J. Deach- man (Lib Huron North) as a cun- =tructive measure to llPlD employ- ment.

BE Policy Was Approved In a discussion on the refusal of C B. C. to lease the national net- work to Mr. George McCullagh. Mr. Mackenzie King recalled the House had had a standing com- mittee on radio broadcasting for the past two sessions, and that the repcrt of that committee had been accepted unanimously by the House after reviewing the policies of the corporation last Year, "All members of this House had the opportunity last year cf con- sidering the policies of the Radio Broadcasting Corporation," the Prime Minister said, "and I wish to read just one or two paragraphs from the report of the radio ‘arcad- casting committee which was sub- mitted to this House and carried unanimously. which report approv- ed these very policies designed to see that radio broad-casting, as car- ried on by this corporation. should be so conducted that there would be equal opportunity for all con- cerned, regaldlrss of their par- ticular circumstances one way or the other." def lance of by the Ward n’ rrrlvrrxlors which had been in foroe for the past is ears wn. otc przzllibiting the buy- ng up cf the national network by any individual or corporation for the purpose of giving his or its views to the nation at large over the national network, the Prime Minister said. Mr. Denton Massey (Con. Tor- onto-Greenwcod) interrupted to say it was not. the regulations but their interpretation which was causing the difficulty. Mr. Mackenzie King then de- clared the Government's agr ment to reappointment of radio committee this ' rlev'ew the whole radio situation. "What I want to point out. Mr. Speaker, is that as far as radio broadcasting in CFlMlO. is concern- ed, when this Pariiamenk has put the whole business into he hands of a. broadcasting corporation. it seems to rne that we as members of this House in our public or, pncitv ought to support the cor- poration in seeking to make rules which will cause radio broadcast- plg throughout this coup to show avors to none buteoue ‘mime!!! and opportunity to all," Prime is named, this Govern out? b ' , whalevor to of cot I071. with ~to a Among the regulations laid down, rue clranporrrzrowu cggilgpralg ~ Outlines Work Ilene By Bil-ops i UITAWA. his. l0 —(OP)-'!‘bs improvement in the social and e- ‘ conditions of those Mari- time communities where Co- operative Credit Unions have been established was em here today by Prof. A. B. nald, St. Francis Xavier's Unlve , Antiserum. N. B. A pioneer in th activity and one of the maln- spnngs in its development, Prof. MacDonald spoke to members of the Parliamentary Press Gallery. The work had been started ln 1980 as a program of adult edu- cation ancl origlnall took the form of creating st clubs, or- ganized to consider community problems. An initial total cf 200 clubs had now increased to 2,500, distributed throughout the Marl- tithes. As the movement developed it was linked with a program of action aimed at improving social and economic conditions. Credit unions were begun. To these the people brought their savings. their nickels and quarters. ‘The accumulated savings were applied to loaning back to members of the community such funds as were necessary to carry out work of a productive nature. A total of four unions with savings of $30 in 1932 had now increased to 3B0 with savings a- mcuntlng to more than $900,000. said Prof. MacDonald.

There is another kind of garden- ing which rrllght well be associated with the rook and that is the culture of squat lants, of which we have a aha-rolling variety na- tive to our Island. have heard of two attempts to water- gardiens: one at Southport and the other somewhere in the Vernon. River district. if my memory serves me well. I admit there are diffi- culties to be overcome in attempt- ing this form of gardenllm. but here is how a Toronto marl over- came them. . Mr. H. B. has a city backyard l6 feet wide and 140 feet long; rather an awkward shape to do anything with. By chance, about eight years ago, Mr. B. bolkilht three hardy water-lilies, and made a small pool for them. They wintr ered perfectly, to his great sur- prise, and he was able to take off shoots from them in the hiring. With these and some new variety that he purchased. he stocked a. new pool. Every year there was further expansion, and last year he ha varieties of water-lilies growing. and doing it well, in a dozen tanks totalling 600 square feet of vlater surface.‘ Mr. B. made many discoveries in connection with his hobby, and he freely puts them before the public. The first is that growing had been used to free the p901)!!! from debt. put them on a cash has!" and into a position of fin- ancial independence. Scientific marketing of primary products had been the next ad-l vance. and Prof. MacDonald cited lpstam-"s where, hy application of co-operative methods, consid- arable economics had been effect- ed. Side bv side with these had grown consumers‘ co-operlltlves, of which there were now 42 doings business valued at more than $3,- 000000 annually. The result of this mobilization of the people's own effo was the setting up of better standards of living. and also a raisins of cultural standards. 'I‘hey had been given a new vision. and had de- v"‘"\ed a finer sense of responsi- bility. ‘When people concern them- selves with the lnbs they are do- ing," said Prof. MacDonald. "'I'lrcy have no time to think of the more radical ideas floating around them." Tile speaker noted the compar- ison between those communities that urere thriving by virtue of est-operative efforts and others which had not yet adopted them. Th" comparison was all in favor of the former. Snow Conservation For Vegetables t (Experimental Fklnn-News) Prairie bllzzards deposit irregular drifts of snow inside the IBM-en shelter of trees. Ovservlng that only a portion of the garden area was covered at the Dcmlnitrl Ex- perimental Station at Scott. Sask, it was planned to determine the ef- fect of the snow conservation of vegeta-bles. states G. D. Matthews. the Superintendent of the Station. Accordingly. the same varieties of certain vegetables were gown where drifts accumulated and where the land was swept bare of snow by strum: winds. when snow drifts accumulate in early winter on level cultivated land, there is usually no frmen ground beneath and the snow water soaks into the ground except in a rare spring of rapid thawing.

(The lilies. I should have said. are left undis- turbed.) Early in April the covering is removed: later. the fish are re- placed, and by earlv May the first buds are showing.

NOTES ON ISLAND PLANTS The Jlmcaginaceae. ‘There ls a small family of two genera. and only one species has been noted here. It is the Arrow Gram, 'I‘riglochin nlaritima Linn. It is a plant of the salt marshes, with erect, tel-eta, leaves, very nar- row, and with oblong fruit of six separable carpeis. It would be un- scientific to say it is of no use; it grobalbly goes to feed some in- abltant of the marsh. it has ‘however. a remarkably wide range being found on the coasts of Eur- ope into the Arctic; in North Af- rica; in the salt districts of Asia; and in Australia. and North Am- erica.

THE WANDERING IEW (%ncllldcd) From that ca tlvity in Babylon their descendan were permitted to return, and thereafter the Jews inhabited Palestine for nearly 500 years. It was during this five cen- turies that the amazing literary output of the nation took shape. 1.. traditions, hlstorv. religion, and prophecies. were embodied into the form in which we find them in the Old Testament. No other nation of that time had any outburst of literary vigor that can for a mo- ment be compared in eloqnerld’ lofty earnestness and spiritual insight. with that Book. But not all the Jews returned t0 Palestine, for many elected to set- tle among the natlons of the Near East: Daniel was_'0l1e of these. Later again when Greek influence was making itself felt irl Egypt, we find Phllo, a Jew of Alexandria, shaping the thought of the day. So far had the Jews wandered, so wide the dis rsal, that it was feared that t elr faith would be lost. and so the Hebrew records were translated into Greek. At Jerusalem, however, the traditions of the race were maintained. and worship was centred in the rebuilt Temple. which every Jew regard- ed as the "Shrine of the Most High." . It was during the time of liter- ary excaliatlon that the finer minds of the nation conceived the id-ea of a Messiah whose conquer- ing goodness would found an ever- lasting kingdom. In the fulness of time when He did come, thefiews knew Him not. but His disciples established a Church which has spread through the world. Its earliest adherents witnessed the destruction of the centre of their ancient faith, and the dispersal and excile of the Jewish people which has lasted for nearly 2,000 years. The Jews made horns for them- selves in other lands where they were‘ usually allowed to form com- murnties and given freedom to practise their religion and carry on their social ll.fe, because they willingly respected the laws of the cwrltry they had sealed i.rl. were only persecuted just as the Christians were, by those rulers who demanded that they should be regarded us divine-much as in the present day. Under the Roman Empire their capability in trade and commerce and their industri- ous habits, gave them influence as great as that posssed by any other subject race. Under the Mohanmedam the Jews were re- garded with a favor not shown to the Christians; for the Moslem idea of the One God was borrow- ed from the Hebrews, and the fcre- fathers of the Jewish race are honored person in the Moslem Koran. \ Later still, one of the trium pg in phs -of the Jewish race was the pal-t lt played in B after the Moorish nqu . ‘They rekindled- the torch of knowledge which the Goths and Vandals had put out. and were the linguists and philosophers of the time. So ne- oesory were they that they rose to high influence, and the Span- iah Jews became the aristocrate of their reoe. When the Christians expelled the Moors from Spain. they drove the Jews out too, and thus left the peninsula denuded of all its enterprise- Their descend- ants, virile and energetic. may still be noted in the Mediterran- ean seaports. The Jews as we have seen in a previous article. arrived in the Western Would after the Norman conqum, and as the Christian Church forbade its mes-labors to receive interest on loans. only the Jews could act as moneylender-s. But as a, rule when a Jew dried the Kine confiscated his estate. “rile Church, too. be- came increasingly hostile, forced theJe/wtoweurabadge, and eventually forced Christians and Jews to inhabit separate quarters of the town: thus arose the Ghettos of the Middle Age.

Manitoba) There ls a glint of romance in the thought of sportsnen-hunlcrs of diversity and big game when the snows of early winter cover the forest with a pall of white. A cabin in the woods where the air is clean; a roaring fire when darkness falls; a bed of fragrant spruce boughs to induce a depth of slumber unknown elsewhere, and cookery that produces an appetite without recourse to arti- ficial stimulation, are worth a journey of many miles to enjoy. And when dawn appears, glowing and chill, a search for moose or deer about the bl-ules and willow- ed swamps, adds jest to the first ringing shot that brings some an- tlered creature stumbling to its knees, never to rise. Perhaps there is a pang of regret because some wildlng has given its life to serve no special purpose as Nature or- dained should be its fate, even if its flesh sizzling in a cast iron spider is inviting and easy to con- proudly to its love-making awaits preparation in order to adorn some urban fire-place as a ro- memorance of line's prowess in the wild. There is that moment, we like to believe, in the mind of every thinking man who takes pleasure with a gun, flee though it may be. It is a gesture of remorse worthy of cultivation, an appreciation worthy of the chase and the spirit of the Wilderness which breeds the but. or worst, ln men who frequent the woods to secure their allotted quota of living things. The measure of onels fellows ls well gauged in the silent places. for a man will lulconsciousl reveal his innermost soul by his attitude toward the wilderness and its in- habitants, in word and deed. l-le brings to the woods his early up- bringing, his home and business life and principles as openly as the firearms that will furnish erl- joyment and the blankets which will enshroud him with comforting warmth when the ashes of the camp fire turn to gray. His ac- tions may proclaim him a mem- ber of a respected and honored fraternity, or an individual for whom one cannot coin a conven- tional name. I have met many true sports- men while vagaborlding in the great outdoors whose considera- tion fol- the creatures they sought was almost akin to my own, sl- though I do not kill for pleasure and always with reluctance and remorse. Men of whom a father commended to a little cha of seven one stormy day in a proh- ing fishing dory off the Suffolk coast. men who give their game a break with a two shot limit and a benediction to the escaping quarry after. two bullets go wide of their mark. He told me. too. of men who follow s "blood trail" to the bitter end, cursing ~erring marksmanship with the same vehernenoe as if they had careless- ly wounded a dog. And of others who. when unable tcshoot with eportinn pmcislon. laid aside their arrris like a surgeon his scalpel when his nerve is gone. Suffering end mutilation were the bane of their code, things to be guarded against at any cost. This ls the type of sportsman we admire. It is men of their calibre we believe alone invade the game inhabited areas when the bars of protection are lowered and deer ma" be leaallv killed. Alas for the sumption, for there is another ess glorious as- pect. the storv of hunters bereft of every sporting principle, imbu- ed solelv with the desire to destroy in contravention to every rule o the game. Pouring from the cities andtowrls. they frequent the re- gions wherever game animals ex- ist. Many are so untufnred in the art of marksmanship that a rifle is n dangerous weapon in their hands. I have met them. I know their kind. They taint the woods by their presence. I have counted ________, ii , p castle, to the oolliers. v. 0., cool- ships which tcok it abroad.
