In his lsttcr to Prime hliiiistcr Mackcnziv King Prt-tnier (Zimplicll says‘. “l find that there seems to be a considcr:iblt* itndcrcitrrcnt of fer-l- ing among the farmers of this Pffl\'ll'lC€',~'lt'/ll('il fr Irv/z! mtdrr l/w sitrfrirr nnl_v by their iii/misc pnlilirril rrnli/urnl." Obvionslv, it was not to Torv farmers that the Premier was referring. lt was to those “good party tiicii" who lizid votcd for him and for the King Government last year Those ivt-rc the disgruntlczl farmers ivliose “iii- lCII-Sfi lrtililical sentiment” tircvt-iitcrl tltclil from . merchant navy . had told the Campbell Government something. 1t must have been to that same class oi farmers Premier Campbell referred when he said that this “undercurrent of feeling" took two forms, one being “the? feeling oi resentment at the Do- minion Government's treatment of western wheat farmers as opposed to Maritime producers.” Premier Campbell's letter is strongly reminis- ccnt oi EiilUlllQf famous cpistlc, written to Prime Minister Mackenzie King by Premier Saunders some years ago. At that time, this Province was so badly off under Liberal rule that unless fin- ancial rclicf came quickly, “we might as well hoist anchor and drift otit to sea." Premier Saunders waiitcd to g0 to Ottawa to interview’ Mr. King personally; but the Prime Minister rc- ' plied that in view oi the length of the letter, there ivould be no need to do that. He also sug- gested, cynically, that Premier Saunders could not possibly have written it all iii one day! Hr. King's reply to Premier Cantpbcll reflects the saitie irresponsible attitude of mind as did his reply to Premier Saunders ten years ago. lt is entirely’ irrelevant and unconvincing. It might have been written by a man in tlic Moon, with- out the slightest knowledge of, or concern for, the issues presented to his attention. One wond- ers whether Premier Campbell stopped there. Did he not sit down and write Mr. King another letter, telling him in still plaiiier language what the farmers of this Province thought of him and his gnvcriimcitt? There is no rccorrl of such a reply having been written: but let us cherish the hnpe that it was. It is only by chance that our Premier's first letter got into llansard; it was tabled in Parliament along ivith other correspond- ence dealing with the wheat processing tax. That was how Mr. Hanson got hold of it, and gave it to the country Norway Sta nds Firm Under the title, “Norway Does Not Yield," the Norwegian Legation in Washington has published the story oi Norway's first year of war. It is an inspiring little book. even if a tragic one, because while it tells of the German treachery which conquered Norway it tells more about the spirt of resistance which shines brightly in most Norwegian breasts —there are not many quislitigs —and the very important contribution Norway is making to victory, through her soldiers, her sailors, her airmen, her The book has an introduction by Mrs. _l. Bor- den Harriman, former United States Minister to Norway: “No power oti earth," she says, ‘fcan prevent the Norwegian democracy from rising again and re-establishing the good free life for all its people. No illusion of Adolf Hitler's is more stupid and more absurd than that he should think Norway is ever coiiqitcrable. That is the great thing about democracy —whcre it is true to it- self it caiiont die . . . .T\'or\vay is, as she alivavs was, a free coitntry. Hitler too will find tliat out." ' EDIIORIAL NUIES -. Here is a remarkable voltc-face on the part of the Montreal Gazette: “If the provinces and municipalities are to gct into this war to any- thing like the iiill extent of their responsibility they will not only have to stop over-taxing thc people but will be obliged to institute very much more drastic economies than any that have been attempted tip to now. Financially, if in no other respect, they must get bchind the Dominion Gov- erninctit and remain there until this great wzii i job is over.
