Jurists are now trying to iron some of it out. In France there is a Mouvement National Judi- ciaire, composed of lawyers who were in the Re- sistance, which sets out to make the general public conscious of international law. However, a British jurist who attended one of their meetings, complained that though they haci the right idea some members seemed to be trying to swing everybody to a communist con- ception of international justice. The commun- ‘ists think internationally, and it is to be ex- pected they will seek to place their key men beside the gates of international truth so that they may be opened and closed at their direc- tion.

Britain’s Exports Sir Stafford Cripps disclosed at a press conference in London recently that the value of Britain's exports last month was by provisional estimate $330,400,000. Although this corre- sponds to a volume a little less than that of an average month in I938, the figure is rather more encouraging. than might be expected. For while it is $34,400,000 below the January total —which was incidentally one of the highest - reached since before the war—it is $26,400,000» above the figure for February. The low Febru- ary returns have been explained partly by the shortness of the month, partly by the unusually severe weather. They were not, however, ef- fected by the fuel emergency since most of the supplies shipped abroad that month had been completed some time before. March exports an the other hand do begin to show the effect of the crisis, even if they do. not perhaps reflect the full force of the factory shut-down through- out the main industrial areas of Great Britain. Sir Stafford warned that reduced figures must he expected for some time to come. Mathematical A case which come before the Supreme Courteof Illinois presented nb mystery to that court, but it provides a possible mathematical puzzle for anybody who reads about it. An hori- . orably discharged veteran of World War I_i_ri " March, I936, took an examination under civ_il service rules for patrolman in the city of Chi- cago. The civil service rules provided that 27 was the maximum age at which the examina- tion could be taken; the applicant totem! hi5 age in‘ th-e application as 27. But in I943 charges were brought against him that he had misrepresented his age at the time of the ex- aminotion and that his actual age then was 37. He was di:')..:rged from the police department. In I945, the State law was amended to provide that nobody entitled to preference because of military service should be removed because of misrepresentation of age and the discharged patrolman sought reinstatement. The Supreme Court of Illinois holds that this amendment is repugnant to the Illinois constitutional provis- ion against special privileges end immunities to favored classes. The legal reasoning is clear enough, but the mathematical puzzle remains. if the ap- plicant prcsented himself in I936 as entitled to preference for military service and also as 27 years old, why did it not occur to wonder what this precocious person was doing in the armed forces at the age of 8 or 9? It is easy to understand why the sometime patrolman found mathematics burdensome, for his desire to be- come a patrolman had come too late to match civil service standards. But it is odd that all the prelimina i... to examination did not reveal the discrepancy between his supposed age and his military service. International Law v French jurists have been pondering over the recent testimony of Albert Speer, Hitler's ‘munition boss, that until, the Nuernberg trial _\ he knevs virtually nothing of international law. » While few believe him--in so far as Speer puts this forward as an excuse for atrocities-the fact is international law is not a subject taught in the public schools of anycountry. lt seems that here is a subject that many organizations . working for world peace might develop in edu- "eation if global security is to come. » The Nuernberg triols succeeded in calling attention to international low and postulating He is answering a question- Puzzle Official ending of the war in Europe, this date I945.

C It is highly satisfactory to have both Fed- eral and British officials visit us, and commend the quality of our potatoes and the expert handling of them for export. 1| i‘ i i‘ It is sad, and a sorry commentary on Pro- vir.-cial and Federal administration, to have so many Cape Breton youths and girls emigrating to build up Ontario industries; though, of course, it is better they should find employment in Canada rather than in U. S. A. it It is interesting to note that in I945, it cost only 79c per day less to maintain a hos- pital patient in P. E. l. than the average for the whole of Canada. .The current year fig- JFES will no doubt show that the difference is even less, the cost. being on the ascbndant. r a awn a a a From the Forest Nursery Stations at Indian Head and Sutherland, Sosk., 200,000,000 trees had been distributed up to and including the Spring of I946 at the rate of approximately L000 trees to 4,000 farmers each year, in the case of broodleaf trees, and 5,000,000 ever- green trees to 800 planters at the. rate of.ap- proximately 200 trees each year.

The bridge which is I70 feet high and I00 yards long is of vital im- portance as it will not only permit traffic once again to cross the canal, but it will also allow drcdges to pass beneath to clear the debris which has blocked the canal since the libera- tion. i I ‘ Sir James Matthew Barrie (Gavin Ogilvie), journalist and Scottish novelist, born this date I860.

In that case the police will issue him with a ceriifi- ' cate and he must keep the animal alive for a month. But if he doesn't say there and tiien that he wants it. the police are under no other duty except to destroy the dog painlessly. Of course, if there ls a name on the collar they must seek out the owner. But that is a different story. The things we find in everyday day life, however. are not usually animals but bits and pieces, pos- sibly of value, and here the old principles of law come to our aid.

But nothing is ever quite as simple as that in law. You have a strong right to what you find.

If a servant finds ii thing in the couise of his iuty, he finds it for his employer. Indeed, if a rullwav porter finds on umbrella in a compartment and does not hand it over to his em- ployer, lie can be guilty oi Isr- cency. Nc-r can you claim anything which you find if. for example. you are trespassing when you come across it. So it goes on. To some people it does not sound very human or appealing. Others see behind it the efforts of our fathers and grandfather-s to get things straight and. right. The pattern they made docs not always, by any means. fit our changing and restless s0- ciety. That is why the law is alwsyn being enrlbl-ied by new statutes or redirected by the decisions of judges.
