Prime Minister King opens the issue with a message an Canadian citizenship and its relation to the problems of the world today. "Only by extending through. out the world the ideals cf mutual tolerance, of racial co-aperation, and Oi equality among men, which form the basis of Canada's nationhood, can nationality come to servo humanity. Only as nationality serves humanity can mankind hope to substitute ca-operation for conflict, in the relations between the nations of the world. ln making nationality the servant, and not the muster in world affairs, Canada today is giv- ing to mankind its greatest hope for the fut- are." Mr. Paul Martin, National Health Min- ister, who acted as head of the Canadian dele- gation in the absence of Mr. St. Laurent, re- views the struggle by Canada to have relief continued on an international basis once UNRRA passed out of existence. The contribution of this country to the principles of the Internation- al Refugee Organization -s summarized by Mr. Caldwell. Following a review of the work of the Assembly, Mr. Brooke Claxton, National De- fence Minister, reports on the Paris Conference for the Settlement of peace treaties with Germ- any's satellite states. He represented Canada at the conference. The issue concludes with an article by Pro- fessor Glazebrook of the University of Toronto on the German problem; an analysis of Canada's strategic north by Professor Trevor T. Loyd, for- merly of Winnipeg; and a report on Yugoslavia today by Hugh Seton-Watson, of England. Llfo 0f l1 Ghlck A graphic series of radiographs depicting the daily life cycle of a chick during incubation period, were recently taken in Toronto. The purpose of the undertaking was to determine the speed at which the skeletal frame develop- ed and find out if x-rays revealed anything of practical value to poultry breeders. Describing the procedure adopted in this unusual use of radiography, Percy Ghent, vet- oran x-roy technician and editor of C. l. L. X- Roy News Letter, said that arrangements were made to remove an egg a day from an incu- bator containing 2i eggs. On the twenty-first day, which completed the incubator term, the 21 eggs were x-rayed. The plates showed that the first trace of bone formation appeared an the thirteenth day but the definition then and on the fourteenth day was extremely delicate. lt was on the four concluding days of in- cubation that the chick displayed an almost panicky haste to collect enough bones and tis- sues to break out into barnyard society on time. Also shown clearly on the radiographs was the gradual enlargement of the air cell within the incubating eggs as their moisture content evaporated. This resulted in a folding of the inner protective membrane surrounding the embryo which manifested itself on the x-ray film in a series of regularly spaced dark lines along the long axis of the eggs. X-ray studies of embryo developments in turkey and other classes of eggs are soon ex- pected to be carried on at the Ontario Agri- cultural College at Guelph in connection with the nutrition rlclicicncy- work being continued at that institution, Mr. C'":nt said. The pailviic orcsnnts for 1915-1946, tabled ant, reveal that during that National Film Board workers recently in Parl. fiscal year ‘the London School ~on June 6, 1944, D-Day came at last with the 0 advances for expenses were made to him from time to time. For the period September, 1944. to April 15, 1945, he proffered an accounting of‘ $5,134.36, which included $949.59 disbursed for. ‘entertaining.’ As of March 31, 1946, an ac-' counting has not been accepted for $1,167.19." Deductions of $100 monthly are being madr from this officer's salary to make good the dis-i bursements he failed to explain satisfactorily to the Department. This is one side-light on the financial ex- travagance which keeps taxation still in the vicinity of wartime levels. There are hundreds, probably thousands, of similar examples. — EUIIURIAL NUItS i-. - Our "hold-uppers" so far have proved to be very small potatoes. i fl i * The result of the City's religious census has yet to be announced. i It I i A Royal Maritime Commission is promised.

I Q i I ' "You have probably heard about the new butter-making process they have developed in Germany-a process in which the cream is emulsified, instead of churned (reports Sir Char- les McCann over BBC). British experts have been over there inspecting it, and their reports are so favourable that it has been decided to bring units of the plant to England for compara- tive tests. Some claim that this method means a seventy per cent saving in time and labour, as well as an increased yield of one hundred- weight of butter to every two tons manufactur- ed. lt is also claimed that the plant occupies very little space; that the capital cost is not high, and that one person operating can produce one ton of butter per hour." i i I Q Do you believe in dreams?

But the record does show that 98 em- ployees earning 32,400 or more annually, spent in the agqrcqtifc $134,000 on travel. At the some time 191 other employees whose incomes were below $2,400, spent another $218,000 in alleged travelling expenses. Mr. John Gmrson, former Commissioner with on annual salary of $10,000, had an easy lead over cvcryon: else on the. expanse account list, his outlay for travel amounting to $6,694.09 during the fiscal year. The seven next highest totals were $5,556," $4,527; $4,353; $3,709; $3,687; $3,440, and $3,431. There were in all 49 expense accounts rendered by employees for amounts exceeding $2,000 each. At least 15 Notional Film Board employees received more in travelling expenses than their annual salaries. Ono individual who drew $500 por month from the Board in U. S. funds, also drew a total of $3,709.84 for travolling expenses. Tho Auditor General has commented sharp- ly on this extravagance. Ho cites ono instance at least in which reparations are being colloct- od. Ho says: "ln September, i944, tho Na- tional Film Board sont an officer to London to octos co-ordlnotor ofgnows rosls.
