How Liberal treaty ntaking affected the home market for these products last year was shown in Parliament the other day, when answers to the following questions were tallied by the Illinister of Trade and Commerce: "\\"hat was the approximate value of market garden products exported to the United States during the tuelvc months cndiitg Dec. 31, 1933?" .\n-",\vcr: "Fresh fruits. $564,124; fresh vege- tables, $905,015." "\\'hat was the value of market garden pro- ducts imported into Canada from the United States during the same period F” Answer: “Fresh fruits except bananas, pitte- apples and citrus fruits, $2,865,933; fresh vege- tables. $4,539,911". Is it any wonder that our fruit and vegetable industry is facing a “crisis’, with the home mar- ket handed over in this wholesale fashion to American competitor?’ A Tangled Web "Augur" the well informed London eerie!- pondent of the New York 'l'in1es has this to say on the European situation. Italy’s quarrel with Britain over Ethiopia and with France over Spain drove Mussolini into the unnatufkl Bcrlin—-R0me axis arrangement. Yet Musso- lini does not desire to be cut off from all pos- sibility of a return to friendly collaboration with France and Britain, especially the last named, because it is absolutely needed for Italy's se- curity in the Mediterranean. It was known in London that Herr von Ribbentrop on Herr Hit- ler's orders had invited Count Galeazzo Ciano, Italian Foreign lllinister, to be present in the Reichstag for the Chancellor's speech. The hope was on that occasion to obtain his signa- ture to an alliance with japan. Signor Musso- lini finds the commitments of the existing alli- ance with Germany quite enough. Therefore he forebade the visit. Experts in London, care- fully reading relevant passages of Herr Hitler's speech, find. them truncated as if at last mo- ment a reference to the tripartite alliance had been removed as premature. A tripartite mili- tary and naval agreement by Germany, Italy and japan would be extremely disagreeable to Britain, because in some circumstances it could make impossible the transfer of adequate naval forces from European waters to Singapore. Prime lllinister Neville Chamberlain, therefore, is highly apprehensive over Signor Mussolini's line. He wants to strengthen the link with Italy so that she will entirely drop the obnoxious combination. That is the principal reason for Mr. Chamberlain's anxiety to see the French- Italian quarrel settled. On his instructions Sir Eric Phipps, the Ambassador to Paris, is press- ing Premier ‘Edouard Daladier and Foreign Minister Georges Bonnet to liquidate im- mcdiately the trouble with Generalissitno Fran- cisco Franco's Insurgent regime in Spain be- cause that is the first step toward a settlement of other pending issues. Britain's Trade Problems fhe. international crisis in September result- ed in less trade disturbance in Great Britain than might reasonably have been expected, and it naturallv accelerated the pace of industrial production for rearmamcnt and other defencc purposes, rcpwrts the chief Caitndiait Trade Coni- missiottcr at London. It is not yet apparent, however, to what extent the demands upon in- dustry for dcfcticc requirements are contribut- irg to the maintenance of production and em- ployment. lt was a bclief, commonly held, that, flue to induslry’s prc-occltpation with govern- ment orders, :1 large civilian demand was ac- ctirtitilnting which would lake up the slack when the volume of arlnritietit orders decreased, but. although it cannot be sttoposetl that the demand for" rearniatneztt tnitternl has reached its peak. production, as a imttcr of fact, was on the dc- CllllC in 1937, and unemployment in steel and lngineering~tlie two industries most directly af- fected-dncrcased. This suggests that rearntzl- tnent cannot he considered as a primary factor i11 the maintenance of industrial activity. Declining British export trade, due to world ‘unseltlement, has, in view of its vital import- once to indnstrv, been the subject of anxious concern to the Chamberlain Government. As-n result, the President of the Board of.

The City of Ottawa does not spend enough money in daily newspaper advertising to attlact tourists, Alderman Pickering said at a meeting of the industrial and publicity committee Wed- nesday.

Alderman Perley felt newspaper publicity should be continuous and the chairman, Alderman Hamilton, agreed with this.

For one thing lt, would be unsafe for airplanes to fly over great. heights, and espeelillly so ln the treacherous weather conditions o1 Everest.
