The separationallowancc was increased to $30 in 1918. The military pav and field allowance of a lieutenant-colonel is $10 per day now, compared with $6.25 in 1914, but the separation allowance for a lieutenant—colonel is $60, as before. A lieutetiant’s pay has been raised from $2.60 in 1914 to $5 per day now; at captain’s from $3.75 to $6.50; a major’s from $5 to $7.75. In each offict-r's case, however, the increase in separation allowance has been relatively less than for the men in the ranks.

There are other reassuring factors in the situation, which, as stated, was not tiiianiicipated. Perhaps it is just as well that Russia has shown her hand early in the struggle, so that there will remain no question, among Christian nations, as to the nature of the mo- mentous issues involved. Tlie Submarine Cleanup Following the policy it observed in the Great ‘Var the llritish Admiralty has refrained from making any announcements of the destruction of German submarines, and is resting content to al- low results to speak for themselves. It is point- ed out that the official listing of the names of. destroyed German submarines, accompanied with mention of the regions in which they had been operating, would only serve to furnish the Nazi Government with vitally itnportant information as to the points at which it would be necessary to replace destroyed U—hoats, in order to carry on effectively their underwater campaign against British shipping. As late as 1917 in the Great War British merchant ships were being tor- pedned by German submarines at the rate of ap- proximately 400 a month. So far since the out- break of the present conflict such casualties have aggregated between 25 and 30. The great dis- proportion between the number of British, :19 compared with German, merchant ships that have been stitik by submarines is easily llIl,tl(‘l'SfO(l(l The seven seas are navigated every day by fleets of British mercliantmcn, whereas the whole Ger- man merchant marine, or at least that part of it which has not been destroyed, has already taken to cover in (it-rman or neutral ports and is as uselcssv for the carrying trade as if every Nazi carrier had been torpr-doed and sent to the bottom. The llritish Adniir:tlty's campaign against Ger- man U-boat maraurlers involves the two pro- cesses of hunting them down, on the nne hand, and providing safe convoys for the British carry- ing trade. The effcctivciiess of this plan of pro- cedure was amplv demonstrated during the Great \Vn.r. (‘omparatively early in 1918 the sub- marine menace had been eliminated by the des- truction of virtually every German U-boat op- erating in any part of the world. Only a strag- gling few succectled in getting back to their bases before the Armistice.

The Nova. Scotla fish, of course, will really be flown rather than fly of their own accord.

This development, he maintains, offers an opportunity to our fresh fish dealers which they should not overlook. Fresh-crtught Atlantic fish is a rare dellcaev to Central Canadian palates.

As a matter of fact too much cannot. be said about the need of vitamins and minetmls In our daily diet. but this does not mean that specially manufactured food p:o- ducts are an absolute necessity In the diet of the average healthy In- dividual.

It might be well therefore to see what, “ord.Inar_v" foods contain these vitamins and minerals, be- cause a lack of the necessary food- stuffs endangers your health. In speaking to the Canadian Life Insurance Offlcers Association, Dr. Ftedericlt F‘.

SON. I6 Parliament, in an emergency sea- ttlon luttng ‘term than a. week. NM made all necssery provision for the Initial stages of Canada's part. In the war against. Adolf Hitler. Mainly, It has done so by authoriz- ing the Government to raise and spend $100,000,000 for war pur- poses and conferring virtually un- limited powers on the Govem- ment for prosecuting Canada's part in the war along the llnm propos- ed by Prime Minister Mackenzie King and approved by parliament. More specifically, it has passed a number of special measures neces- sury in the organization of the country, such as the Act. for the creation of B new department of Munitions and Supplies, the Act providing for tt central war charities organization and measures denim with other bases of the nation effort. It a 0 passed, in the space of a few minutes, the first fin- ancial budget of the war, placing new tax impost.-s on all the people. The delay In Canada's actual en- try into the war was for the pur- of &ttlI)1lSIl.ll’l.E. In the view of the Government at least. ll new constitutional position for Canada. While some constitutional author- ities still hold that Canada was at war the moment Great Britain waa at war. the course taken by the Ot- tawa Government was designed to relegate this constitutional doc- trlne to the Ilmlbo of the past. It was deliberately chosen for the pur- pose of establlslliniz the position that Canada entered the war of her own volition and by her own inde- pendent action and was not made a belligerent by Britain's declara- tion of war. The King proclaimed Canada to be in 11 state of war with Germany exactly one week after the British Government's declara- tion of war and he did so on the advice of his Privy Council for Canada. This advice was conveyed to him by the Prime Minister of Canada. after parliament had ap- proved the Speech from the Throne and the stipplemeiitztry stttteinent. by the Prime Mlnlster to the effect that the cause of Britain and France was also the cause of Can- ada, that Canada's place was by the side of Britain‘ . . similar constitutional procedure was followed by the other Domin- lons, although their war declara- tions came earlier. Iiiternistlonal recognition of the position that Canada became a belligerent through independent action and not automatically by Great Bri- t.t1ll'1's action was established by the course of the United States Government In naming Canada is belligerent under the U.B. Neu- trality Act only after Canada's own declaration of war. Both Prime Minister Mackenzie King and his chief cabinet associate, Hon. Ernest Lapolnte stressed the rxisltlon the Government com- mitted Canada to In this connec- tion as of profound constitutional importance, while Hon. R. J_ Man- lon regarded it as merely B techni- cality the pursuit of which delayed this country's notification to friends and foes alike that It stood shoulder to shoulder with Britain and France.

Open opposition to any participation by Canada and advocacy of neutrality came from a section of the Gov- emment's Quebec following and from J. 8.
