Similar publicity work is being done in the United States by the Ameri- can Society for the Control of Cancer, which since its organization in i913 has carried into every Stnte its program of lay education. Summing up the known results of cancer treatment in a bulletin issued in connection with its list of cancer clinics, the American College of Surgeons says: "We know that many cases of cancer are cured with prompt treatment by thc provcn methods of surgery, x-ray and radium, but we must also abandon the ‘know-nothing’ attitude about the fundamental aspects of cancer. No zpochnl discovery has been made mnccrning the cause of cancer, and considerable doubt exists that any single piece of research will disclose any single cause in a disease which assumes many forms. Nor is this of the utmost importance, for though thc cause of diabetes is still unknown It is now a controllable disease through the dis- covery of insulin. It is important to recognize that in hundreds of laboratories investigators are daily building blocks of knowledge about can- cer, and gradually fitting them into the com- plex mosaic patternthat is gradually coming to light.” To some extent a misnomer, “cancer clinics" lervc both free lfld pay patients and deal not ‘only with cancer but also with the detection and eradication of many benign and prc-cancerous conditions. The further establishment of such clinics at strategic points throtighout the coun- try, it is emphasized, "holds forth the measure of greatest promise in reducing the toll exacted by cancer." Warning To The Charitable h?!’ m Service clubs and patriotic organizations are warned that it is against the law to institute any collection or sale for the purpose of providing necessities or raising money for war purposes without express permission from the Federal Government at Ottawa. The Imperial Order of the Daughters of thc Empire, at the request of their headquarters in Toronto, organized a collection of warm cloth- ing to send to England for the benefit of evac- ucitcd children and advertised that they would receive parcels at their rooms this week. They have since been advised by the authorities that it will be necessary for them to obtain a license from Ottawa, and this has been applied for. In the meantime, they cannot accept delivery of parcels and it will be necessary for intending (lonors to ivithholrl them until notice has been rtceivcd That thc permit has been granted- "Dropping The Pilot" "Iliitil recently”, says the Ilamilton Spectator "W3 wok wme [lfltlC in thc fact that Charles Liudlicrglfs QIPZII~gfClll~grilflflflllllCr was the first settler upozi ihzit piirt of the shore of thc southwestern 1nd of lake Ontario upon which the citv of Ilnmiltoii iiow stands. fugitive from the American revolutionaries, this staunch B-giligli soldier and loyalist, whose name was Robr-rt Land, refused to accept the decision of the Revolutionary \\'ar and. litiiiled as a coun- ter-revolutiouriry, escaped across the Niagara border, finding szitictunry under that same crown to which his descendant Charles Lindbergh, turned for s.'inctu:irv some one hundred and fiflV years later, and fut‘ their allegiance to ivhlcli he now so unwortliily criticize-s the (anadian peo- plc- We still huour the memory of Robert Imp] and his United Empire Loyalist descen- (lqms, but Charles Lindbergh, bedecked with Niizi vurwlnls and going out of his way t0 Ell’? comfort to our enemies, we drop from the rpli of our heroes as one who has betrayed and ‘I15’ lVlllOllfNl his mother's blood.

The man who proclaims in this hour of world turmoil that “the Western Hemisphere is the domain of the |United States", “that the outposts of the United States stretch from Alaska to Labrador, from the Hawaiian Islands to Bermuda, from Can- ada to South America," “that the United States is in duty bound to protect Canada from foreign invasion and that Canada in turn has a duty to the United States not to place that country in the position of having to defend her by engaging in wars abroad" is a. disturber of the peace of this continent. His words, devoid both of logic and diplomacy, betray the dictator in him. As Nazi propaganda they are worthy of Goebbels in his best form." Fur Market In Mexico Canada was the chief source of supply to Mexico for raw pelts in 1938 with shipments ~przictically entirely of silver fox_ In reporting this to the Department of Trade and Commerce, R. T. Young, Canadian Trade Commissioner at Mexico City states that there are possibilities of extending Canadian sales in thc Mexican market. Mr. Young reports further that “the demand In Mexico for imported furs arises from those in a position to afford theiu as a luxury or semi-luxury, for they are not a necessity as an artiile of wearing apparel as in more rigorous climates. The market, therefore, is limited to a small fraction of the population. . But so far as the sale of medium-priced pelts is con- cerned, thcre is a brisk call for silver fox and for smaller lots of stone marten, grey squirrel, and other types of furs. Silver foxes are re- quired to be well silvcretl; in fact, the more silver, the readier the sale." is EDITORIAL NOTES E-Z St. Luke's Day.

The Premier had already offered all the facilities of the province to the Federal au- thorities in the prosecution of the war. In the national emergency, he forgot his personal feud with the Prime Minister, ivhich had been car- ried on for some time. Should he be named to head a Ministry of Air, it is believed his tenure of that office would be for the duration of the war.
