OMEN IN LANCASHIRE Reopcning of cotton mills in Lan- 'clshire is seen by the Montreal Gazette as one of the signs of a brightening economic outlook inl Great Britain. The circumstances! of a trade revival in that section of (he North of England are held to establish a clear case of cause and effect. A few days after the coun- try went off the gold standard, for- eign orders for Lancashire exports *began ks increase. Two more big cotton mills in the county resumed operations last week, one after be- lng closed for four years and the other after three months of com- plete idleness. In addition, a bl! hcmry in the Manchester textile district, in order to meet a rush gr-¢|¢r of goods for export, has shift- ed from A bull of forty-eight hours’ pracznally reached the average of the five-year period, 1925 to 1929, when economic conditions were comparatively good. In 9. time of depression people are inclined to think only of the adverse factors in the situation, even though u number of other factors are quietly operating on the constructive side as at present. The year 1931 open- ed with a situation barren of im- mediate hope, but during the past ni.ne months price levels have been relatively even for the_first time since the downward trend began in the Autumn of 1929. U. S. OPINION Commenting on Premier Ben- Yofrk recently where he gave eloquent expression to Canada's "imconquerable belief in herself,” the New York Times says: "This courageous confidence of one who has himself triumphed in the face of great obstacles is a challenge to Americans. The vis- it of so cheerful a ncglhbor in these troublous times is as in- vigorating as his country's cli- mate. He admits that nature was unkind to Canada's Western wheat areas this year, but this calamity is one from which he sees an early recovery. The un- employment. situation is serious but is "controllable," So does he face with the fortitude and reso- lution of a pioneer the condi- tions that front him in his coun- f.ry‘s service. Fortunately, there are no tariffs against such a spirit. We should welcome its im- DOW". EDITORIAL NOTES The experts have done their n nett's optimistic speech in New = a rn .
