Thus, when Secretary of Agriculture Claudc R. Wickard said that the family-size farm is one of the foundation stones of his country, he might as easily have been talking of the Dominion. ' We have perhaps. suggests an‘ exchange, given too much attention to the great spreading acres of the West, where it is not unusual to find whole sections of 640 acres under culti- vation by one owner. More consideration is due the small farmer, the man who, on a lrun- dred acres or less, must maintain himself and his family. That is where every foot of land must be made to contribute. There is little room for experimentation or gambling. Care- ful planning for every field, season after sea- son, is essential. Even good farmers need help in the con- duct of their business. They must have assured markets. They must have reliable advance in- formation as to the form of those markets, as t0 the proper proportion of production for vari- ous crops. Such things can be given thetii only through a wise and explicit tiational agricultural policy. We have not always had this in the past, nor have we really achieved it yet. It is one point of planning for the future which cannot be nqlected. EDITURIAI.

Winston Churchill, Prime Min- ister of Britain, born this date I874: “You ask, What is our policy? I will say: It is to wage war, by sea, land atid air, with all our might and with all the strength that God can give us: to wage war against a monstrous tyranny, never surpassing in the dark, lamentable catalogue of human crime. That is otir policy. You ask, \Vlrat is ottr aim? I can answer in one word: Victory-victory, in spite of all terror, victory, however long and hard the road may be; for without victory, there is no survival.” i I i ‘ Farmers in Etiglatid have brought an ad- ditional 6,000.000 acres of land under cultiva- tion with tllg help of 85,000 girls who had never done farm work before, Mrs. Janet Strang, Chief Instrttctress in dairy farming and poul- try husbandry at Norflianrptotishire Institute 0f Agriculture.

Experts testified before the special Con- gressional Committee on newsprint, Washing- ton, tliat expansion of newspaper advertising is essential to the successful post-war conver- sion of industry to civilian goods. Only through day to day advertising, declared the expert evi- dence, can housewives and other consumers learn the kinds and the amounts of saleable articles available, thereby stimulating tirodttctioir and employment. Government officials and urem- bers of the Congressional Committee agreed that every effort should be made to bring about immediate relaxation of present restriction.

Side by side with the pilots of British fighters and bombers, these men have kept open vital limpire air routes.

The Prime Minister said Thursday in the House of Commons that there is apt to be confusion in the public mind on the status of men who will move overseas following authorization to conscript 16,000 draftecs. He said he would seek to put the position simply by saying that "if there were 1,000 men called under the National Resources Mobilization Act in a camp and none volunteer- ed they would still be N.

The story at Breda, the Dutch town which was freed by the Brit- leli from the Germans the other dny, is typical of the tangled his- tory of many European commun- ities, says ‘The sault Ste.

It. was captured twice by the Spaniards, once in 1581 and again in 1626, but. was recaptured in 1m by Frederick Henry of Orange, and in 1646 it was finally ceded to Holland by the Treaty of Westphalia. The French also cap- tured Breda twice, in I'M and 1795. but in 1013 the citizens of Breda again mude themselves masters of the town. Two pence treaties were negotiated there by England, France, Denmark and Holland, one in 1667 and the other in 1748-47.
