The idea that Japan can be turned into a democracy on the constitutional monarchy plan in one generation or ever. in two or three is little short of fantastic. Japan has in her con- stitution some of the forins of democracy. But they are quite artificial and meaningless. In name the Emperor is absolute, but his absolut- ism is conditioned by the will of the army, the Motvoav, Avousrhzo, 1945 navy, big businesses and the great families.

In his addrc<< at the opening session of the Conference, Prciiticr lones pointed out that the fishing industry in this Province lacks frozen bait and cold storage facilities, while better methods of fishing further out to sea “should have been encoizragcd." Why, after gix years of war, in which meat was scarce and fishery products at a premium. slioitlil this have to he said? \\'ho iviis responsible? \Vbat lead- Qrshlp has rho Federal Department of Fisheries shown in this matter? Surely, in view of the great iii-iportzuice of this basic industry, a re- vamping of the whole department at Ottawa ihould be undertaken. Danish Bacon Again Mr," Christmas Voeller, Danish Foreign Minister, has been very active recently in Lori-- don, and according to London newspapers hopes to take back with him to Denmark an agree- ment whereby Britain will purchase "most of Denmark's surplus bacon, eggs and butter." This will come as no surprise to the Can- adian hog-raiser, dairy farmer or poultryman, although in view of prc-victory food-shortage reports from Europe it would seem strange fo: Denmark to have food surpluses so soon after its liberation. ' For nearly five years now the Canadian swine-breeder has provided bacon for export to the United Iiingdom in 2m endeavor to gain a foothold in the British market. “fhetber he has succeeded will be evident in the course of the next year or s0. There is no sentiment in business, whether that business be food, clothing or manufactures. It would be unreasonable to expect Britain to continue bacon purchases from Canado if she can get the same commodity cheaper from Denmark. It is easy to understand the British view- point in food purchases. The London Daily Express, ivriting of the igreemeht with Deit- mark, says: “iljhis means that Britain would get comparatively fresh lritter, bacon arid eggs, as before the war, instead ot food kept in stores for many weeks." The fact that Canadian farmers, \vhole- salers and exporters are wcll aware of these world food conditions and the special condi- tions of the British market probably explains the drop in bog production which has been general in I945 — and the tinderljiing reasons for meat-rationing here. The Allies And Tlihe Emperor The Japs would seem to be stalling in ini- plementing their acceptance of the Allied sur- render terms, which is not surprising in view of what we know 0t Japanese treachery in the war, On the other hand, it is worth remember- ing that this \Vll4'l€ nffiir is someiliing unique in history.

Irle forms at least a nucleus for the nation — an authority with which the outside nations can deal, a representative of the nation. and one who can speak in the nation's name. There are decided advantages in having such a representative and spokesman. With such nnucleus, the nation is organized; without it, there is chaos. In die C1551‘ of Japan, the Allied militzirv chiefs, speaking in the name of the Emperor, will ln- li|<l.".l'-il\' obeyed. l/Vlthfillf this authority they might have to use coercifin. which would be lllllilfiiifllll and difficult. At tbc same tin-re. it is possible, as the London 'l'imr.v points an‘, that the Japanese people of Japan have no say at all and there is not much evidence that they nave any desire for a say. -EDITORIAL NOTES- There is still no room in the inns.
