Never before has so great a. tonnage been reported. Gains were hade mostly by Western Canada mines. Nova Scotia and New Brunswick produced a little over 1.1130000 tons, valued at nearly twenty million dollars; this was close to the figures of i927.

LONDON, Jan. 25.——Revlewillg tllc recently published book, “Canada and World Politics," by Professors P. E. Corbett and H. A. Smith, the Times’ Literary Supplement says in part -- The two authorsof this short but very able and closely reasoned book were. when the book was written, ex- cellently placed as well as eminently qualified for the work which they took in hand. Both of them Fel- lows of colleges at Oxford, Mr. Cor- bett was. and is. Dean of the Faculty of Law and Professor of Roman Law in McGlll University, Montreal, hav- ing previously served as assistant legal adviser to the International Labor Office of the League of Na- tions. H. A. Smith was. at the time of writing, Professor of Constitution- al Law at McGlll. but has since be- come Professor of International Law in the University of Londoll. They both wrote as Canadian citizens. says Professor Smith in a note on his transfer to London. but “neither of us would admit that there is any necessary conflict between the Im- aria‘: 1nd the Canadian point of view." Canada is the eldest of the self- governing Dominlons, and from first to last at each stage of development has given a lead to the others. It is well said in the introduction that “the theory underlying the system of responsible government in the Dominlons must be reckoned as an original contribution of the British people to political science," and that “the practice has moved much faster than the theory." It is all to be traced in the story of the relations between Great Britain and Canada. Of what kind then was and is this, so to speak, Index Dominion? What- ever inference can be or ought to be. drawn from the historical fact. the Dominion of Canada was, and is. sul generis among the oveasea nations of the Empire. it was. and is, not like, but unlike all the other Domin- ions, unlike even South Africa, w th whom ii; has more in common th n with the Dominlons of the Pacific. its development has not been simply the growth and expansion of a Bri- tish Colony; it has been the evolu- tion of a composite community made up of two most diverse races and or- dersd. by a very powerful foreign. though in part kindred. nation. Seli- government a.rid—what has perhlfps been an even more important factor in the British Empire. for it must in course of time have compelled self-government-ihe formation of larger units came into the Empire primarily ln a case the circumstances of which were wholly unique. More- over. when formed. i.liis Dominion. owing to its French element and un- der the guidance of the great French- Oariadian leader, Sir Wilfrid Laur- ier. developed in Empire relations a strongly marked policy of aloofness. The influence of Canada in the Em- pirs rnadeforfseverally" much more than for. jointly“; and the attitude adopted by the Cenadism Govern- ment iowards the. Treaty ofLaus- anns showed that alocfness was still ‘dominant in Canada after the war. By very acute and exhaustive an- alysis which carries full conviction. the authors of the book conclude that 2's wise nationalism is not in enf- with a larger unity.” "So far as Canada is concerned. we are convinc- ed that separation. and any policy which tends either in forrr or. in sub- stance towards saparagim. will be a dlsastroul error, er lu t" and "looking at tile matter a still wider point of view, we believe that the maintenance of its own unity is, perhaps, one of tile greatest services which the Empire can ut present render to the cause of civilization.” The book is vcry outspoken, and its writers have not wanted courage ill expressing their views on the stra- tegic position of Canada. Two parts of the book have, perhaps, rather spe- cial interest. The first is the refer- ence made, in the chapter on “The Empire and the Laague of Nations,” to the difficulties which may arise from the dual position of the Domin- iolls ill the League and of Canada in particular. It. is pointed out that special importance- attaches to Can- ada in the League as being, ill the absence of the United States, the only representative in it from North America. and that there is a. tend- ency for the smaller nations to look to her as a. lender", which resulted in her being elected lll 1027 to a seat on tile Council. She is, therefore, called llpon to he in some sort spokes- mall of the smaller nations and. as such, not to let the Canadian vote be merely a duplicate of the British vote. On the other hand. as a. mem- bcr of the British Empire, it is in- ‘cumbent upon her not to invalidate the unity of that Empire by being in any way in the forefront of op- position to Great Britain. It. is a very difficult position. but one in which slle may render most valu- able service as an intermediary be- tween the grent States and the small, the one thing rleedful being full and free consultation between the Empire delegates before the meetings at Geneva. The pages in which this subject is liscussed are followed by an expres- sion of hope that active participation ln the work of the League of Nations may widen the outlook of Canadian politics: and this. (he second point oi special interest. is followed up in iho chapter on "booking Forward." In this chapter comment is made on the narrowness of contemporary Canadian politics, and a strong plea is put forward for raising the politi- cal life of the Dominion to a level which would attract to rather than repel from it the best men in Canada. This. the writer hopes. may be the result of "participation in the affairs of a wider world." Comments and criticisms of this kind are permissible in ii study of "Canada and World Politics"; but it behooves n. reviewer to be mindful that Canadian political life and Can- adian participation in or absiinece from the affairs of the outside world are matters for Canada alone. It. will hot be lmpertinent. however. to express: a strong-hone that (here may be ho long delay in completing ade- quate human machinery for close. constant and fully responsible con- sultation between the Governments of Greet Britain and Canada.

Dog Battles Uto ’ Dea-thJl/ipth Fox (By British United Press.) LONDON. January 25.—An epic battle between a sheep dog and a fox has just been fought to the death on a farm in Glamorganshlre. For nearly an hour the farmer who owned the ‘dog watched the struggle, which raged so fiercely that he was unable to separate the contestants. The fox resorted to every wile and stratagem of which his species is famous, but the dog fought on until Reynard began to weaken. Then it was that the fox showed his artful- ness. He commerlsed to retreat down the slope of the field towards a. stream. but py means of circling round the dog he managed to make every attack from the higher ground, thus gaining an advantage. Emboldened by success the fox k811i. up the attack. the dog all the while yielding ground, but conser-v- ing his strength. Then the end came swiftly and unexpectedly. They had reached the stream. and the d s. adopting the fighting methods o the fox, leaped upon him from the higher ground.
