His Intellectual equipment is admittedlv of the highest order; he's a scholar, but no armchair scholar, and his spiritual chin is broad and firm. It he has tact he has will nower u well and it ii this combination thtt will enible him to handle that far from easy assignment the direction of t war office. If the soldier of the line, whose constitution for years after the war suffered from the rigors of trench life, never dreamed that he would be called uoon to carry the burdens of chief of his country's forces In the next wtr, this does not mein thtt ht will not mtkt t good job of lt EDUCATED IN NOVA ICOTIA In t few wordt here tre some of the salient points in his career. He comes of an old Nova Scotian family.. If Norman Rogers has an easy flowlnt pen, he comes by that honestly. His mother, Grace McLeod Rogers, Is the author of magazine articles that are Interesting and gracefully written. He was educated in the Cumberland County Academy, and attended the Acadian University. He served from 1M5 to 1917 in France and Flanders, for a time with the Cmadian Mounted Rifles md later with Divisional Signals. As already mentioned his health suffered, but the unremlt- tent csre of his family hu brought him round; now he can perform any amount of hard work and he Is an Indefatigable worker. He won a Rhodes scholarship at Oxford, and took a number of degrees at that university. He was appointed Professor of History at the Acadian University; wu admitted to the Bar of Nova Scotia; was Secretary to Mr. Mackenzie King in 192? and was Professor of Economics at Queent, Kingston, from 1929 to 1935. In the general election of 1935, he gained hit seat in Parliament,, and received the portfolio of labor/ HON. NORMAN ROGER! He had anything but tn euy Job ln the Depirtment of Labor. With tha care and precision of the icholir he githered in every torm ot statistics relating to unemployment md drew a composite picture of the whole unemployment situation. Aided by genuine humanitarian instincts and a broad scholarship In economics, he did his very best to solve the most difficult of all economic problems. He gave the best that was in him, unstint- Ingly. He never lost his head ln the face of the heated and withering attacks trom the opposition ln parliament; was cool, collected and balanced in debate; patiently and lucidly explained the various methods adopted by the government to alleviate distress and Increase em- eloyment throughout the country. ia never Indulged in impassioned oratory, nor did he ever hide my shortcomings he saw in his attempts to cure unemployment A correspondent writing on a protracted unemployment debate luggested Rogers should havt a medal for "endurance in listening," and added that lt Rogers made mistakes, these could not be attributed to lick of sincerity or ltck ot work. There ll no doubt thit he favorably impressed labor leaden, provincial officials and others with whom he came in close contact in his work u head of the Libor Depirtment with hit sincerity, his unfltgging zeal and hli devotion to duty. ADMINIITRATIVE ABILITY Ht hu brought thess tttrlbutts with him in his new sphere. He ihowed administrative ability ln the Labor Department and he ihowed be had plenty of "guts". If his scholastic training might not be considered the essential or normal equipment to be found in the knapsack ot a soldier, it is not to be overlooked that he hu the deep- seated knowledge ot warfare learnt from the ground up when he served as a Tommy in the trenches in France. He ll the administrative head of hit department. He has the tacticians and staff college men u hia usistants Just u Hore Bellsha ln London hu his. He dislikes red tape and slack traces but he will itand up In the collar with ill hii itaff. Jutt it wt miy bt ture without definite knowledge on tht point thtt he wu never late on parade, had a dirty rifle or shirked fatigues when he wu a common soldier, we may bt equally confident that the same clear star of duty Is shining before him now when Canadas whole military machine in in hit charge. f Match How Part of Auto Eqlpment for Londoners Ingeniut Londoners havt gotten tround the rationing of gasoline ln England by Instating coal- burning, gu-produclng units on their automobiles.

STALIN'S CHRISTMAS PRESENT Whether Comrade Stalin recognizes Christianity or not, and whether the Land of the Soviets has a Christmu or not, Comrade Stalin is in receipt of a Christmas present, and an entirely unexpected one, but wholly deserved. Following weeks of setbacks to the Soviet army in its invasion of Finland, and the intensified drive of this last week, including a rain of bombs for days upon shattered Helsingfors, Christmas is ushered in with the latest Soviet drive broken, the Soviet army in general retreat, and a Finnish counter-offensive in progress. Reading from day to end of the Soviet tanks destroyed or captured, one felt that the Soviet Army, although breaking down in various respects, must shortly recover, and then roll forward over devoted Finland in steam-roller fashion, unless the Scandinavian countries joined forces With it \, But befon the end of Uut week the number of Soviet tanks that had become casualties reached 200, according to the Associated Press dispatches—and that is a volume of loss pretty hard to explain away except by a very real gen- tral defeat of the Soviet force of invasion. A We read that the Soviet general has been removed from his command, for having inadequately prepared the offensive. Inadequate preparation, however, hardly explains the breakdown of the tank branch. No matter how wild and snowy the terrain, in below-zero temperature swamp and muskeg became solid for every form of ground transport Obviously part of the fault goes back to construction. It is quite possible that the whole mechanization and pping of the Soviet armies is as inefficient and vulnerable as in the cases of the tanks and the rifle shortage. Man-power the Soviet Bear undoubtedly has, but Stalin's ruthless executions in the high officer class for years past, leaving him with few trained general officers, suggests that the Soviet weakness in the campaign in nland may be in the brains as well as in the mechanical ae>ee*t*3*»i»m«a»«e*»«»tMM»)eM'» T DO YOU THINK!

SANDERSON Ctnidltn Prut Stiff Writer LONDON (CP)-On ill ildu you hear thii wir referred to u the queerest ont ln ill history, m unreal almost phoney war, that ii being fought by men ippirently afraid to coma to grips. It is t queer tort of wtr bectuu It il t new form of wir, something u unlike the hind-to-hsnd slaughter of 1914-18 u that conflict' wu dissimilar to Napoleon's lightning conquests. This war, it ltut it the preunt tttge of It ll npt to much a military war u m tconomic wtr with armies* air forcu md navies playing secondary roles. It it t war in which bmk balances tre mort important thm bayonets, t .wir in which men'i nervu ire tht prlmiry target!, not their blood itreimi, i wir which will be won by the ildt having the strongut financial ind economic itructure tnd which can withstand shocks ind preuure the longut. Armlu irt ln tht tield, nivles trt in t life md duth itruggle in the North Set, tir forcu drop i few bombt.on strategic bues—but they are simply backdrops for the real itruggle on Uie economic md diplomatic fronti. SEe BLOCKADI Ttkt tht tconomic front Tht Alliu hivt imposed • two-wty let blockide of Germm trade, not to tttrvt thi Germm people md lower the resistance ot the Germm trmy, but to ilow down tht wheeli of Germtn Industry md, more important thm thit to throtUe htr tccumulitiom of free currency. Every diy ln tht week, Germtny tnd tht Allies bid tgainst tach other for surpluses of food md raw miteriili in the Bilkant, in Scandinavian countriu, Holland, Belgium and Italy. Germany needs the goods to but tht Blocks^, the Alliei cinnot ifford to let her htvt than to they buy them up, guoline, whut iron ore md til sorts of food producti. Germiny retinites by tU torti of threati against neutral tountrlu who trade with Britain md Frince, That'i the war ot nervu, a patented device of the Nazis whose diplomatic specialty hu been intimidation tgtinit imaller, weaker na- Uoni. \ WAR'S DIPLOMACY Take the diplomatic front It ties ln cloiely to the economic tront becauie both ildu compete with each other for the friendship md usistanci of neutrals. And in the long run, money and a record tor keeping promisu will win. Germany hu the dubious assistance of Russia, won tt Uie expense of the Baltic countriu. But the Alliu hivt Turkty't open friendship end moral support The Germm - Ruuian non - aggreuion pact hu alienated Italy and Spain, two Catholic nations and Japan in the East Russia's Invasion ot Finland hu alienated the Scandinavian countriei. Holland and Belgium tear a German invulon. Thia diplomatic front needi conitant ittenUon beciuse of the enigmiUc character ot Russia's foreign policy. In lomt respects, It Is the most important front bf ill because a false step by tht Alliu or failure , to counter German Sressure or propagmda might have iuitrout effects. It li to the idvmtagt of tht Alliu to IociIIk the wir u fir u possible. At the moment the most important object of Allied diplomatic policy li to convince tht wdtld Germtny is itill Public Enemy Number Ont md not permit her tb emerge in e subservient role to Ruuia. MEDIAEVAL SIEGE The military ilde of thle wir li i modern version ot tht mediieval liege. The allied irmles tit tight In Frtnce'i mighty Maginot Lint. Tht Germm trmy is entrenched in tht Siegfried Line. There htve been i pon die raids, reconnaissance parties, a few limited offensives chiefly under the protection of heavy artillery fire—but the two mighty anniu htvt yet to tut ttch other. Thli strategy of military Inactivity Is deliberate on the pirt of tht Alliu. The Usenet of Allied itrat- egy ia tht time factor—time to build up to Germany'! tir strength, time to train md equip Britain's lind irmy, tlmt to weaken German resistance by tht nivil blockide, Ume to hirneu the lndustrlil ind finmclal ruourcu of tha Domlnloni md time to outwit Germmy on tht vitally Important diplomatic front It'i a new theory of wtr, or rather, in adaptation of an old theory, that you can lay liege to t nation of 90,000,000 people by land, nt and ilr, whilt you soften her up by flnmclil, economic md diplomatic blows. It'i t cold calculating policy, strangling or starving your enemy rather thm finishing him with cold steel. MUST BE CHANGE Of count, tveryone idmiti thli phast of tht war will not lut forever. At the financial md economic cordi draw tighter around Germany'! lifeline, Germany will fight and tight recklessly, boldly and with the grim determination ot a man who knowt he must win quickly if he expects to win at aa Germany sUll has her trmy, md iht itill his her sir forct. Thoie agenti of deith will be used before Germmy acknowledges defeat When Germany launches "htr ttttck it t matter of conjecture but there It no doubt it ill ibout whether the will. On the dty war wu declared, mlllloni of Britons md millions of Frenchmen scmned tht skies for Uie ipproach of Goering's air armada of bombing machines. But they didn't arrive, that day .nor have they arrived yet. Like mmy other feature! of this wir conflict, the wir in the ilr hain't lived up to idvmct noticei. There hiven't been icoru er hundred! of Nui plmu raining death and destruction on Britiih and French cities in a desperate attempt to destroy the morale of the people, cripple their industries and force thalr governments to sue for puce or face revoluUon — the theory ot tht Blitzkrieg. IN THE AIR . , There hu been nothing likt that German planes, a few ot them, have dropped bombs on British soil, attacked ships at aea md at naval basu and reconnoitred Inland. British plmes havt dona tht umt but the Kale of ilr fighting on both sides hu been extremely limited md tha damage!, almoit negligible. from Uit Alliu' viewpoint there It I reuon for thit apparently queer md half-hearted way of fighting a powerful foe. When the war itarted, the Alliu had fewer bombers, fewer fighters than Germany, and fewer trained pilots. So they decided, as long u Germmy did not invite retaliation by bombing Britain and France, to sit Ught md watch Uie wheels of industry bring them up to air parity with tht Nazis. Onct again, they could afford to wait and u long u Germany wu content to give them time, they would take lt gladly and utilise it to build more planes, train more pilots, ftbricatt more -anti-aircraft gunt md complete their ARP squads. Tha war at ua It tht ont phase of this mighty conflict thit his run true to form. The British Ntvy hu iwept Germm commerce from the trade routes ot tht world, held Germmy'i submarine warfare to exceptionally low lossu, found counter weapons to the magnetic mlnu and convoyed thouiandi of merchant ships to md from the porta ot this country. PRICE IS PAID But a prlct hu been ptid for thli domination of the leu. The tircraft ctrrier Coungeoui, the battleship Royal Oak, Ihe armed cruiier Rawalpindi md imall vu- sels have been lost. Duplte the.U-boat the mint end commerce raiders like the Dcutscb- Imd, tht British people are getting all the food they want all the military lupplies they can buy, all the raw materials their factoriu can use—thanks to the millions of set milu being steamed by the navy. Perhapi the mott Important duty of tht navy these dtys is tht imposition of Uie two-wty blockade against Germmy. If the British Navy can help it not a pound of war supplies reaches Germany, not e pound of exporti cm the snip to foreign mirkets to iccumulite fret currency. The Null tlwtyi hive claimed lt wai sea blockade that defeated Germany in 1918, not allied military strength. Whether that is true or not the tact remains Germany today it in the grip of a blockade just u strong and just u effective u the last one. And thia one wu imposed at tht ttart of the wtr, not three- quarters ot Uit wty through It U in tht First Grett Wir. •Nrlamt Sailji Nrmu ' Telephone 144 Classifier* Advertising Rates lie per line per lniertion. 44c per line per week 18 coniec- utive insertions for cost of 4). 9141 per line i month (28 timu).
