Good News From Saskatchewan Heartened by the biggest cash income they have known in ten years, Saskatchewan farmers Ire shoving their dollars into the channels of trade with a zest not seen since 1930. The Regina Leader-Post uses red ink in headlines telling about the bright outlook on the farm, and says wheat, the money crop of the largest grain- growing Province, has put $40,000,000 more into the growers’ hands this year than last. In lildition many millions have been earnedhy sales pf live stock, coarse grains, dairy produce, poul- try, wool, and the like. What is equally en- couraging, the trend of relief is sharply down- ward, and it is authoritatively forecast that in the rural districts, which have experienced years of famine, 75 per cent of those on relief will now be ahle to provide for themselves- Saskatchewan had a good crop last year, but prices barely exceeded production costs. This year the Province has a much bigger crop, and better prices to boot. An encouraging aspect is that there is abundant feed for live stock, and no lack of seed grain for next spring. \\'ith a full granary and plenteoiis fodder, the Sas- katchewan farmer once more experiences a sense o security. It is estimated the 200,000,000 bushels of surplus wheat Saskatchewan has for sale will net the Province about $ioo.ooo,ooo, and that other farm products will yield an ad- ditional $85,000,000 or $90,000,000. \Var Aims And Pacifism mere was recently made public what pur- ported to be secret instructions from the Nazi propaganda headquarters in Germany to their stool pigeons throughout the English-speaking nations; and one of the injunctions most strong- ly stressed was that they should actively as- sociate themselves with pacifist organizations. It is safe to say, adds the l-Vinnipeg Free Press, that there have been supplementary instructions to them that they are to join in the clamour that unless complete and satisfactory war aims are immediately forthcoming. there should be a ces- sation of hostilities on the terms offered by Hit- icr. Demands for the immediate production of a peace program or an acceptance of the stig- gestion that peace should be sought by an ap- proach to Berlin are rightly subject to ques- tioning. It is along this line that the insidious pro-Nazi assault upon the Allied intention to continue the war is now being waged over a wide front; and, of course, there are ivcll-mean- ing people who will unconsciously help on the movement by joining in the cry. Subject to the condition that there can be no kind of peace short of the overthrow of Hitler- ism, the discussion as to the uses to which vic- tory will be put in desirable and necessary. The main purpose: of the peace to follow victory cannot be too clearly or too oftcn proclaimed by the nations that have the place of honor and of duty in this war of defence. To snecrs that victory in the last war resulted in a peace, in which the roots of this war are to be found, there il the reply that nations, like individuals, do sometimes learn by experience. And still more conclusive is the reply that if the peace does not follow Allied victory, it will follow Allied defeat. That is the hard and inescapable choice and if it is faced resolutely there will be an end to hesitations and doubts as to the duty that comes first. It is to make sure that the war will be won. Nazi Mentality .0 the historian of the future, one of tne most interesting and instructive documents relative to the present war will undoubtedly be the re- port, now published in book form, of Sir Nevile Henderson and his relations with the Nazi Gov- ernment as British Ambassador at Berlin. No more significant phase of Sir Nevilc’s report will be found than that dealing with the Nazi mental- ity and its revelation of the narrow and shallow environment in which the cult was nurtured. Not one of the men whom Hitler takes into his confidence, it is revealed, knows anything of the world beyond German frontiers, excepting von Ribbcntrop. Because he speaks three lan- guagcs, was once in Canada and peddled cham- pague in London, Hitler "regards him as a man of the world." The Fuehrcr himself has been outside Germany but twice in his life. Both oc- casions were official visits to Italy, and after his rise to power. Sir Nevile associates these factors with some 3f the less admirable but most prominent char- acteristics of the Fuchrer himself; his "inability to see any side of a question but his own or to understand the meaning of moderation." Con- scqncntly all opposition becomes intolerable to him. “All those bold enough to express opin- ions contrary to his views are shed, one by one. and he is, in the end, surrounded by mere ‘yes rnen‘ whose flattery and counsels alone are en- ilurahle to him." The Ambassador lists a few of the advisers who were shelved to eliminate opposition, their places filled with party extremists and stooges: Field Marshal von Blomberg, War Minister; former Foreign Minister Baron von Neiiriith, Economics Minister Dr. Schact, the late Gen- em] von Fritsch and General Beck. Significant- ly their removals coincide with one ‘_‘march" q.- Another. More significant, the majority were not mfiv “moderates" but pro-Bntish advocates. llnviilgi watched the weeding out and hflvlflll known ihr- men and their successors, Sir Nevile relates that for over a yearthe Fuellftir W35 completely cut off from all moderating influ- ences within the Government, the army and the party. What chance had reason in these cir- cumstances? - - IIDIIURIAL NOTES -r Premier Hepburn is said to have withdrawn his opposition to the St. Lawrence deepening scheme, but Premier Duplessis remains adamant. i C I I Daniel Webster, who negotiated the Ash- burton Treaty which settled the boundary be- tween Canada and Maine, died this date, i852. 1 I I! i Most assuredly the other provinces of the Dominion have a profound concern in the ver- dict which Quebec citizens are to render on Wednesday of next week, says Montreal Gazette. Their attitude is deeply significant in one res- pect, namely, that in no instance has their criti- cism of Mr. Duplessis been accompanied with even the slightest expression of any lack of confidence in the loyal spirit of French-Canadian citizens. I i i I Dr. \Villiani Brown, director of the Institute of Experimental Psychology at Oxford Uni- versity, and a world authority on diseases of the mind, has concluded a year's study of the char- acter and mentality of Adolf Hitler and reached the conclusion that the German Chancellor is suffering from a chronic form of insanity known as paranoia, which will gradually impair his in- tellect until he destroys himself or becomes a raving maniac. How long, how long? , u y a a General Tremblay, just appointed Inspector of Militia and Overseas Active Forces, is well known in the Maritime Provinces, as his late war battalion was brigaded with the 25th Bat- talion of Nova Scotia and the 20th Battalion of New Brunswick. The 22nd Battalion car- ried out part of its training in Nova Scotia, prior to leaving for overseas, and General Trem- blay was a serving officer throughout this period. I Q1 l? ‘I The Federal Government announces that the Dominion \Vater and Power Bureau is collect- ing information on Canada's power producing capacity in existing plants and “through new development." This is the opportunity Prince Edward Island has been waiting for- The late Premier Stewart had a plan for the hydro de- velopment of both East River and Winter River, but at that time financial difficulties stood in the way. That, or nothing else, should be permitted to hinder development at this junc- ture. Lct the Government, Boards of Trade, Farmers Institutes, and other organizations get busy and demand that this Province should share in the hydro-electric development of the Dominion. ##1## In course of time it will not be necessary to serve drinks at banquets, only fruit; that is, if the experiments now being carried out by Mr. Samuel Undermeyer, Yonkers, N. Y. realize anticipatioiis. Ilis gardeners have begun a series of transfusion operations upon the vines of honeydew melons to flavor them with cognac, port wine or bcnedictine—ivhichcver a guest may desire. In each vine in the hothouse on the noted New York lawyer's estate an incision will be made. An absorbent cotton wick will be? inserted, its other end resting in a bottle of spirits. Thus, if all goes well, the vine will absorb the stuff- Then, when the melons are ripe next month, the alcoholic content will be inocuoiisly small-dint the taste beyond doubt. Mr. George Chisholm, superintendent of the estate, has experimented already on a few melons with port and thinks his three-flavor plan will work out fine. n- u n: - Announcing that he had been forced into the provincial battle by the attitude of federal Lib- eral members, Mr. W. Allen \i\'alsh, .\l.P., for Mount Royal, addressed the radio audience on behalf of Mr. William Ross Bulloch, straight Conservative candidate in Notre Dame dc Grace. “I have searched the jiages of Canadian his- tory and have yet to find any previous example of a Dominion minister or group of ministers staking their political life on the outcome of a provincial election,” Mr. \Valsh said, referring to the attitude of the Rt. Hon. Ernest Lapointe that they would resign if their Liberal friends were not elected in the Province of Quebec. “Not only is Mr- Lapointes attitude somewhat child- ish," said Mr. Walsh, “but it savors too much of straight party politics, with the desire to elect to office in this province a Liberal administra- tion. We should not lose sight of the fact that Messrs. Lapoint, Cardin, Power, with many other federal Liberal members and also the present Liberal candidate in Notre Dame dc Grace, supported in every way that discredited Liberal regime that was thrust from office just three years ago." ll i i The movement for organic union between the Presbyterian Church in the United States of America and the Protestant Episcopal Church, originating in an invitation from the last Epis- copalian general convention to the Presbyterians to join in formulating a plan for such a union "is not tending to the declared goal," according to an editorial comment in The Presbyterian, a denominational weekly published in Philadelphia. The comment was made in connection with the open letter of Bishop William T- Mannin of the Protestant Episcopal Diocese of New ork, to the Episcopal commission that met with the Presbyterians, urging that the proposed con- cordat between the two bodies be "laid aside.” The llishop expressed a hope for ultimate or- ganic union, however, “with no compromise of catholic principle." Previously the Presbyterian periodical had published the concordat as ori- ginally drawn up last October at a joint con- ference. and also n revision of it and an article from the Rev. Dr. C. E. Macartiiey, former mod- erator of the Presbyterian General Assembly. expressing disapproval of the concordat. Bis-l hop Manning's lcttcr quoted Dr. Macartncyis statement that the proposed concordat “is iin- _ épstitutlon here. IIITES BY ‘I'll!
