there were no audible ayes" and a
lusty chonus of "pocs," A moment
later a voice vote passed the measure.
.' King stirred up a brief discussion
ot foreign affairs when he isked
whit danger threatened this country to Justify the amount of the appropriation,     i
Senator Thomas (D-Okli.), In
charge of the bill, replied that under present world conditions "the

A1BERTA ACT TO OUTLAW DEBTS IS
DISALLOWED; 4 OTHERS IEFT INTACT
OTTAWA, March 27 (CP)-For
the third timi since the Albetta Social Credit government begin its
attempt to remake the financial
and  economlo  structure  of  that
province the weapon of disallowance wu used by the Dominion
government today to bring Alberta
legislation to1 a state ot nullity.
Hon. Ernest Lapointe, minister
of Justice, innounoed In the house
of commons tho Alberta Act to
Amend the Limitation 'of Actions
Act 1935 (chapter 28, statutes of
. 1938)   hid   bun  disallowed.  Iti
effect was to  outlaw III  debts
contracted prior to July 1, 1931,
unless actions for recovery were
started before July 1, 1940, or
the  debts are  revived   by  new
agreements.
Request for disallowance of four
other Alberta measures were rejected although Mr.'Lapointe in hli.
report to the ciblnet Intimated, two-
of the four were unconstitutional
and would probably be found so in .
the- courts.
The four acts left intact were:
Act to amend the Debt Adjustment act, 1937, (Ch. 27, statutes ol
1938). which Mr. Lapointe thought
the courts would upset as it infringed federal jurisdiction over
bankruptcy; .•_

SPLIT IN CABINET?
Meanwhile, all sorts of rumon
and unconformable report! circulated about a -split in the cabinet
over military conscription, rapidly moving to the front as a major
political issue. Informed sources adi-
mitted there was a difference of
opinion within the government but
laid there wu no sign ot a cabinet
rupture.   .
According to these sources, the
i prime minister .definitely ,ls op.
posed to conscription which-Is
being urged by Viscount Halifax,
foreign secretary, and ' Lull!
Hore-Bellsha, war .secretary. Another dissenter to thi Ion of
conscription li supposed to bo
Sir John Simon, chancellor of
tho exchequer, who resigned from
thi government during the great
war over tha same Issue.
It then ire conflicting opinions
within the cabinet on this Question,
it is limply a reflection of the disharmony existing generally in political circles. Even those urging
conscription cannot agree' oh the
form—some insisting on full military conscription along continental
lines, others recommending a compulsory national register, and still
others declaring in favor of. passive defence work or a few months
annual training for youthi from
18 to 21.
Before miking up its mind definitely, the government miy wilt
until the end Of the month md
watch results of the voluntary
national register. There is no doubt
conscription along the. widest lines
would be Introduced immediately
on the outbreak ot the war, but
the British nation hu resisted all
modern efforts to apply it during
peacetime.

Alfred Duff Cooper, who resigned u first lord of the admiralty after thi Munich four-power
agreement which resulted In dismemberment of Czecho-Slovakia,
told his constituents tonight he
favored  conscription.
He uld he thought wir could
be averted, but only by "swift, resolute, united action" by the Britiih

He did not suggest putting every

of every mm of military age."

MOVING STORY ir
SET IN GERMANY
• "The Divine Drudge", i three-ict
play of exceptional quality by the
Nelson Little' Theitfe association,
was. presented to i full house at
the Civic theatre Monday night.
Scene ot the play was laid in a
little town in Germany, just be-.
tore the Hitler regime, and the
story as told by the authors, Vlckl
Baum and John Gulden, md as presented on the stage by the Nelson players, was i moving one. -
Tbe presentation was under thi
direction ot Mrs. Leslie Craufurd.
. Liza li the devoted, wife of Niko,
a small town doctor. For the most
pirt they tike their love tor each
other for granted, without often
declaring it in io many .words, because both are preoccupied In a
medical experiment which has continued over a period ot. years, and
which is to make Niko famous..
An automobile accident, to the
village brings Karl Kruppa a Berlin magnate, Lanla, a famous actress, and'Others.of his party into
thi lives of Niko and Lira, with
the result that Herr Khippi falls
In love with Liu and sho with him.
Pursuaded by Kruppe that her life
hu been too mrrow, Liu eloped
with him. . ■
On her return to 'Nlko'i houii
next day to say good-bye to him,
she finds that his experiment has
already been completed In other
experimental centres. Thli leads to
a reconciliation.
THE CAST   , ;"■'*'
Brim' Horstead played the part
ot a Jewish storekeeper, "Markus"
in love with the doctor's wife Lira.
This love wu evident in his actions md It wu also apparent that
the love wu unrequited.
Eileen Dill wu cut in a character part u a gossiping woman of
the town "Fr,™ Kiapstuhl", who
with word md action added a subtle mixture of pathos md humor to
the play.      . 2
"Liza", tbe doctor'! wife wu
taken by Mrs. Harold Likes. Being the doctor's assistant, she had
her time well taken up between
her duties md her deilra to get
awiy tnd enjoy herself.
Leslie Craufurd, u the old school
teacher- ot the. village, "Herr Al-
kott", played a very old genUe-
min with implicit confidence in the
young doctor.
The Doctor, "Nikb", wu played
by Albert Smith, Ha wu io deeply
ingrossed In his great experiment
thit every other incident and action In the household that did not'
affect hli work wu lost to him.
The convict, "Lungds", given by
the prison authorities to. the doctor,
tor nis experiment,'was taken by
Harold Hinitt. Ih thli character,
a broken down wreck of a man

Firm heads in southern Alberta today were astounded when they
learned of a proposal before the Canadian government to reduce the
minimum pegged wheat price from
80 cents a bushel to 60 cents a bushel, basil No. l northern it Fort
William. Such a price, if approved,
is far below production costs and
will mean stark disaster and ruination of the fanners and in addition
it will be bed for business, they said.
In commenting on a bill introduced in tha house of commons by
Trade Minister W. D. Euler to
amend the Canadian wheat board

chairman ot the wheat board, said
that "any legislation which does
not provide, a living price together
with a national policy for rationalization ot the wheat industry is a

fairness to Wife
Should Be Man's
First Thought
By CAROLINE CHATFIELD
Dear Miss Chatfleld:
I knew from the beginning of
I   our engagement that my  hus-
1   band contributed i lot ol his sal-
I    ary to his family more than hii
I; . older brothers who had better
|   salaries, which was all right with
_   me then. Alter we were married
I   I noticed that his younger broth-
fc. .er wss weiring the belt buckle,
|;  cull links and other gifts I had
f:   given my husband besides hav-
I   ing his way paid to dances, movies
I    and games out of our money.
V .Every day something turns up
f to fret me and show me that his
family comes first I do my own
housework to save money and
he spends more than I save on
I  hla folks. Do you wonder that
p   rm upset and want advice about
I   the matter before I blow up?
G. J.
ANSWER:— A blow-up will do no
. (pod but a showdown may; and you
should have this matter out-with
i your husband here and now. Any
wonan would be hurt and filled
: with resentment at seeing a young
blade ol a brother-in-law sporting
jewelry she'd given her fiance. So
''you might start out by saying to
-your husband that, while you respect him for loving his family and
being generous with them, you do
think he should be first liir to his
own wife. Then marshal your facts
and show him how unfair he's be-
I tog from your viewpoint
Tell him he shows no sentiment
about the personal gilts you've
made him but pisses them over to
.tie used by somebody else. Tell
him you work to help him get
ahead and he spends whit you save
on pleasures for his brother, who
■hould be paying his own way
or learning to do without what he
cannot iHord to piy lor. Warn
him thit due to these and a thou
sand other things you feel pushed
out of tint piece In hli life and
eventually this will kill your love
for him: to say nothing of making
ybu loathe hli family.
Of count, the call of the clan
ll mighty strong to the ears of
some men, and when their wives
come into the picture the habit of
answering the dm call is firmly
fixed. However, the average man
prides himself on his seme of justice and fairness and if hii wife
can convince him that he Isn't
fair nor just to her, he's more then
likely to mend his ways.
She cannot convince him unless
she holds her temper, hides her resentment md approaches him on
the theory that he loves her as she
loves him, wants to do the right
part by her md will, once he
understands how ihe looks at matters. If, after using her head, her
woman's wilei and her wifely tact
ihe cent stop the leaks, ihe can,
at least earn her own money md
keep thie in-law lingers out of the
pie.
BENNY TO PLEAD
NO DEFENCE
KEW YOBK, March 27 (AP) -
The Daily News said today radio
comedian Jack Benny would plead
nolo contendere—no delence-when
he goes on trial here next Monday
in federal court on charges of
smuggling $2131 worth of jewelry
Into the United States.
The News said it had learned
from sources close to Benny that
if the court refused to accept this
plea, the comedian is prepared to
plead guilty.
In the latter event the newspaper said, Benny planned to point
out he had paid $250,000 in income
taxes in 1838 without protest md
that it wai unreasonable to assume he would attempt to defraud
the government ol $500 ln.customs

Hew Hairdress
To All Women
By DONNA GRACE
There is now a marked tendency
on the part of all hairdressers to
cut the hair of every patron whether
she likes It or not. This Is not to
annoy their clients, for most ot them
honestly believe they are doing the
right thing by the customer by
simply lifting her out ot her old-
fashioned way Into beauty and
smartness.
They do really Improve the majority, but there are a number ol
girls md women who should never
wear curls and short-chopped ends
about, the. face.
We met a woman a few days ago
who had been to one .of the smart
stylists, and she waa in tears of rage
md disappointment. Her hair was
nicely curled but she looked ordinary, md lost .all the distinction
tha smooth unbroken line her lovely
hair afforded. Her hair Is the kind
that grows out slowly and lt will
be fully two or three yean before
lt will again be a becoming length.
She plans to wear hair pieces of
the transformation type in the
meantime. • ■
It ii w eaiy to cut but when the
hair is off, nothing can be done
but make the beit of it. Some women
must have short hair for the newer
spring and summer styles but there
are many who cannot wear such
styles my more than every one can
wear the aame style ot hats md
clothes. '     • -.".'
The rule tor-know your own
type, but try tb think of the hair
as a Wtt flattering frame for the
face, rather than something to
eliminate. The hair may be the
only good point one has. Thla is
frequently toe cue. So, while you
miy have every confidence in your
hair stylist, just remember some
of them leem to hive gone a bit
mad on the subject of short hair.
The best way is to go to one of
the hairdressers who advocates the
short styles, ind betore my cutting
il done, let him dress your long
hr'r so as to give the effect of the
short coiffure. They all know how
to do thli. Then, if the effect ie
pleasing, you may wmt to have It

to wear lt

Sludy of Starches Show Factors
That Govern Food Digestibility
By LOGAN CLENDENINQ, M. D.
'Important practical work checked
by scientific standards Is being done
on the value ol various foodstuffs
end methods ol cooking them si it
effects their digestibility. There is
I a common belief that imported
starches, such is arrowroot tapioca, and sago, because of their greater digestibility, are superior to the
domestically-produced starches de-
I rived from our own corn, wheat and
■ rice grains.
I   The work ol Day on the digestl-
■ bility ol cooked starches from various sources indicates that the lac-
tors  influencing digestibility  are
t substances known as rose and blue
amylose. In the course of cooking
V apparently rose amylose is changed
to blue ariiylose. This is the chemical   change   that   makes   cooked
l starches more readily digested and
absorbed. There ii more rose
amylose in wheat corn, rice and
bsrley starches and relatively little
tin potato, arrowroot tapioca md
t sago.
[TAKES TWO HOURS
_■   It requires about two houn to
[.Change the rose amylose into blue
amylose so a shorter cooking time
Is required to render potato, arrowroot tapioca md sago digestible.
I However, the difference is more
theoretical than real because the
\ greater appetizing effect of cooked
corn and cereal offsets the question
Of cooking time.
Other experiments in which not
only the length of time lt took for
digestion in the stomach to occur
but also intestinal digestion md absorption, would indicate that coin,
wheat md rice flour are more completely digested than potato md the
I other starches noted.
The most rapidly-absorbed starch
of all is tho simple sugar, glucose,
and, icoording to A C. Roberts, who
made "a study of the speed absorption of glucose," it enters the blood
stream much more rapidly than my
other type of carbohydrate and as
an energy food would thus be the
most efficient of all.
In cases where there Is a sensitive
digestive tract In convalescent and
other states, the exhibition of glucose as an energizer has good theoretical reasons for its use. In any
such considerations the study should
take into account not bnly the lood
Itself but also the consumer, and tbe
state of mind md physical health ol
the human individual is just as important as toe food itself.
For a healthy Individual we may
assume that any vegetable starch
cooked to hla taste will be ai efficient as my other, but these studies do Indicate that the popularity
of Ihe potato and of corn haa some
sort of experimental scientific bull.

On Sunday they decide to go to
a nearby lake for a picnic. Avoiding old friends who hid snubbed
her, Lona plunges into the lake,
Infuriated, md swims out farther
than she intended.
(Now go on with story).
CHAPTER TWELVE
With three-fourths of the lake
behind her, there was nothing tor
Lona to do but keep going. Tiredly,
she swam a few more yards, trying
to take it easy, hoping her strength
would return. But her urns only
seemed to grow heevier md her
breath shorter. Alarmed now, she
rushed desperately agalnit the water Each yard seemed like a mile,
each minute dragged endleiily.,.,.
And then, suddenly, a streak ol pain
hit herl
Cramps, like a giant hmd reaching out Irom somewhere in the bottom ot the lake rigged at her. With
a faint cry she doubled up md went
under. Choking, trying to hold her
breath, struggling to free her limbs
from the grip that was twisting
them into helplessness, ihe wmt
down, and came up again.
'Jim!" she managed to scream out
across the suddenly hostile water.
Then she wai fighting again. Fighting md losing! The world teemed
to have turned to water ... terrible, crushing.
"Jim—" she tried to cry again,
md a swift gladness shook her as
she felt rather than saw, a dark
form loom close td her. Frantically
she reached lor him, grasped a wet
shoulder, tried to Una his neck. 14
she could only get her arms about
his neck.
Easy, girll" ihe heard him mutter. "Take it easy. Let go! ... Let
go-"-
She knew she should loosen the
rip that had tightened itself, some
tow, about his neck, but she couldn't
do It The water was too terrible!
How could she let go? He was
straining, trying to pull away from
her, panting.
"Jinir-" the tried to cry again,
md then something hit her on the
jaw, something hard. After that ihe
knew no more;
She wu lying on the sand when
the regained consciousnes. Jim wu
bending over her. working her
arms. His face wss white md hli
teeth were set md he wu breathing herd.
"Girll" he cried, when he eaw
that her eyes were open. "You're
all right?" He dropped, her arms
md gave her a little shako by her
shoulders, to hii eyei wu a look
ahe had never eeen there before.
"Tell me you're all right!" he repeated u ihe stared up at him. "You
—God, you icared me, girL" With
a sudden swoop he gathered her into
his arms, wet and dripping, u they
both were,' md Lona felt him
tremble.
"I'm sorry, Jim," ihe managed to
gup. The tears came then and,
choking, ihe tried to hide her held
oh hii wet shoulder.
"Suppose I hadn't followed! Or
If I hadn't got there—in tlmel" He
looked at the water md she felt him
shudder. "And I had to—hit you!
You wouldn't be quiet—" There wu
horror In hli voice as he looked at
the dark- bruise swelling on her
chin. "Sure you're all right?"
"Of courie I'm all right" Lona
felt her heart beat with a sudden
vigor that sent a glow creeping
over her body despite her chattering teeth. "Only I'm c-cold—" she
brought out md tried to burrow
doier.       s
Her distress seemed to bring him
back to himself.
"Of course," he acquiesced. "What
am I thinking of, keeping you here
like his? You'll get pneumonia" He
looked about ruefully, md Lona saw
that they were at the farther end
of the beach, opposite the bathhouse. From across the water she
could hear, faintly, the cries of the
bathers on the other side, the bath-
era she had tried to escape.
Til have to carry you," he decided and, lifting her bodily in hii
arms, he set off through the trees
without further ado.
"I'm too heavy, JimT Ihe protested, her face against his chest

ear she could leel his heart pumping hard md lt tilled her, suddenly,
with a feeling ol safeness, of being

the tears that started in her eyes.
"Don't girll" he said, md hla voice
wu tender. "Don't cry. You're not

Snobs...
Teachers Should
Train (lass to
Charitable
By GARRY C. MYER8, Ph. D.
"Dear Dr, Myers: — I am general superintendent of a Sunday
school. I hive a problem class, a
class ot girll aged 13, which gives
me, its teachers and the superintendent ot the intermediate department no little concern ...
"It seems thit thii group of girls,
five of them, ever since they were
to the primary department have
made ugly remarks about other
pupils in the class with the result
that these pupils refuse to attend
clus. They cut up io In class that
teachers try to do something for the
girls but finally give up in dligult
The clui hai had no teacher since
lait May because each teacher said
she could do nothing with them. I
have asked others to take the clus
but when they leirn what daii it li
they refine."      v• -..
PROMOTE THEM
My reply, in pert: Suppose you
promote these girls Into a class
of adults but don't let them lit
together. Their presence there
might tame them, especially If the
teacher is interesting. If they choose
to leave tbe Sunday school, ill
concerned might be better oft While
a very skilful teacher might succeed with these girls, the chances
are that there is hardly a person
available who could. Anyway, a
Sunday ichool ihould not have to
be a reformatory.
The snobhtohnesi ol these girls-
md, ohl how mmy snobs there
are to Sunday school — had its
origin, no doubt, at home. Per-
haps their parents are pillars ot the
church. Nevertheless, something
still might be done to "save their
souls." II one or two ol these girls
could be induced to present a talk
belore the class on now unchristian snobbishness it, good results'
might-follow.
SPEAK WELL .'
I with primary teachen in day
and Sunday school would help children to learn to speak only well of
others — their clothes, person or
family — and lead these children
to see that about the wont sin il
to be a snob. Then I wish all we
parents would work in the same
direction, through precept and example. And when we hear a child
speak slightingly of my other person md things precious to him, let
us remind this child that in our
home we don't- say such mean
things. This sort of education is
peculiarly desirable in these days
when there is lb much hatred md
Intolerance in the world.      ■ ,
managed to murmur before she allowed her tlredneu to overcome
her completely, deliriously.
Safe! That, word, spoken In Jim's
low drawl wu running through her
mind like a long u ihe went back
Up her boarding house stairs to
her room. Safe! She had never ex-
peoted to connect that word with
a mm, after i all the hid been
through, She hid never expected
she would allow a man to love her,
either, or to love anyone herself.
For Jim loved' bar! She knew
that now, md the realization wu
warm and comforting. It seemed to
envelope her in a sense of security
thit wu unlike mything she hid
known since the gay, thoughtless
days back In Bridgewater. He was
so cuuil ibout it so sweet md so
reticent Not demanding, u she had
alwayi thought love must be. ■
Through the long ride home he
had scarcely spoken ■ word to her.
She had sat with her shoulder
pressed to his, warmly, not needing
to speak. Now and then he would
look down at her, ind hii eyes were
solema md tender, and the half-
smile that crinkled up his face wu
full of meshing. Meaning that made
her heart race.
He hadn't even kiued her. For a
moment u they sit in the chugging
car before her boarding house to
say good night she had thought he
was going to. He had taken his arms
from the wheel md put them about
her ilim body ind held her infinitely close tor a long moment.
."Good night, girl,' 'ho said to the
diawl the had come to know so well.
His lips hid rested for a moment
on her hair, Then, u if he knew
the shyness that wai possessing her,
released her gently.
"Good night Jim," ihe whispered
back. "Thank you for a beautiful
time. It'i been—wonderful": .
Til wait until you get to your
room," he told her, - protectingly.
"Turn on the light md wave. Until
tomorrow, then. He gave her hand
a parting pressure and she felt suddenly humble.
"Until tomorrow-Jim."
Just that hut her heart wu singing si ihe hurried up to. her room.
It wu so wonderful to be happy,
ihe thought with queer humility.
So wonderful md so undeserved.
She could still hear the comforting chug ot the noisy roadster as
she fitted her key Into the lock of
her door. She turned oh her light
u she stepped into the room. Could
be see her, she wondered, and flushed u a honk Irom below answered
her question. Going te the window,

Dr. McKenna Urges Rotarians Seek
Perfection of Privafe Ownership
Answer, to Menace of
.Communism, He
Asserts
Drawing examples from Russia,
which he described u a "great experiment,'' Rev. Radey J. McKenna,
Ph.D., urged Nelson Rotarians at a
luncheon meeting at the Hume hotel Monday afternoon to-maintain
the principle of private ownership,
seeking to eliminate corruption and
wrongi, freeing lt from abuses by
thorough probes and Investigations,
thus to gain an ideal political
ayitem.
Dr. McKenna, sketching the history of Communism, stated that it-
was a modern menace which needed more consideration. In Canada
there was 1 great tendency to accept European culture ind philosophies primarily because they were
European. A philosophy was a mode
of living, the speaker explained, the
ldeu behind one's convictions. A
person acted according to caprice,
be continued.
Philosophies went put the business surface, right to the very nature ot mm. And human nature
was not perfect, for mm was always striving to patch up that great
(all In tbe days of Adam and Eve.
Communistic doctrines would necessitate a denial of free will, the
epeaker stated, for these people
believed that something similar to
a chemical reictlon wu the reuon
and cause of ill man's action.
. Cortmunists attempted (0 take
human nature and raise it above its
6^n leveL Private property wu
not required then, Dr. McKenna
•aid. According to the theory of
Bt. Thomu Aquinai, in the thlr-,
teenth century, if private property
waa taken away, then alio the incentive to work, production md
■octal peace were lost. And this was
what constituted the bull of the
Catholic church'! opposition to Communism, for thli system wu contrary, to human nature.
Speaking of Russia and Communism, speaker told of the organization of the Bolshevists under, Lenin
and Menshivists under Trotsky In
England In 1903 when these free
thinkers had left the scene of the
Czar's oppression to prepare for the
overthrow of the government. Private rights had not been respected
by tho Czar and 10 Russian conditions were ripe for entrance of Communism. The peasants" wouldn't lose
much by accepting thii new belief
for only 26,000 persons owned .land
out of the.population ot 170,000,000.
By the time of the Great War, Russia wu seething under the surface
after. Dr.' McKenna told of the
army's revolt agalnit the Cur, K-T-
ensky's coalition government and
the eventual seizure of the government by Lenin md hli cohorts.
Lenin promised peace and land,
appealing to the very instincts of
mm. In spite ot then high-sounding promises the state took over
the land md the proletariate were
u badly otf u ever.
ARTIFICIAL STIMULUS
An artificial stimulus was applied to make the commonera work
when the incentive to work disappeared, but this wu done through
terrorism md so social peace was
sacrificed. Production figures were
way down, in spite of the claims
and comparisons of the Communists
who compared the figure! to those
in 1903, under the Czar, when conditions were terrible. '
In following Christian .doctrines
md Rotary principles, the speaker
said, the threat of Communism
could be warded off in Canada and
the present private property regime could be improved until m
Ideal system could be secured.
Dr. F. P,.Sperki,briefly thinkid
the guest speaker on behalf of the
club. George A. Hoover led the
singing with Alderman P. G. Morey
at lie piano. J. P. Fink was In i the
chair and A. T. Horswill had charge

A UNITED EMPIRE FOR A UNITED
DEMOCRACY
The harmonious operation, of the totalitarian, axis is
a matter of daily record. The swiftnesa with which the
':Nazi leaders consolidate their gains in resources and men
[into the totalitarian front is a warning a divided dem-
jjocracy has woefully neglected. Do we need more shocks
ito awaken us?
Democracy's first line defence has been the British
|jmpire heretofore, not Great Britain alone. A united
fc&npire is still essential to a united democracy. This is
[where Canada's responsibility begins, and, we believe,
^provides the reason why a majority of Canadians are
[Chagrined by the absence of a positive attitude in our
federal leaders.
How can we expect, the Toronto Globe and Mails
i>sks. the wholehearted, support of Great Britain and
*France from the United States if the senior British Do-
jHiinion remains cold? Manifestly we have a dual respqnsi-
[bility, assumed when we became unofficial interpreter
pjetween the mother country and the neighboring republic.
[For the sake of Empire and democratic unity our key
►.position has to be acknowledged in a practical manner,
jj'his Dominion's obligation to the Empire cannot be neg-
:tected without endangering the entire works,and playing
Into the hands of the dictbtorships. »
Mr. Chamberlain's speech, his conference with the
ipresentatives of the Dpminions, the statement from
i-Washington, the action of the French chamber of deputies
in giving Daladier practically single-handed authority, proclaim demand for a democratic front to save the World from
■totalitarian domination. Great Britain and the other democracies have every1 right tb look fbr a solid backing from
^British people throughout that quarter of the world embraced in the Empire. Canadian neutrality and independence are impossible anyway. Why, then, the absurdity of
futile silence?
The Union of South Africa has felt impelled to take
(extreme action to prevent German colonizers from landing
that part bf the wwld. The United States has impesed
,vy duties on German imports. These are signals that
jcannot be ignored. Nato operations are not confined to
central and south eastern Europe. The barter system of
Irade is capturing South America. Preservation of our
democratic system and safety of our commerce are involved. Yet some of our leaders speak as theugh neutrality
ere conceivable.
We ask again: What will happen to Canada and the
Test of the Empire if Britain fails i,n Europe? Can we
a'fferd to be less concerned about impending disaster than
even the United States?
CENTRAL SELLING VOTE GOES
TO GROWERS
The Loyd committee en central selling this week makes
Jts repert and places, threugh the mails, a copy of the report, a statement by the committee chairman and a secret
allot right into the hands of every registered grower. The
nmittee, in effect, says te each grower: "If the commit-
is to go further toward central selling it must knew
ou wish it to do so. If you want to improve conditions in
he fruit industry declare yourself on the secret ballot. If
jrpu are satisfied with present conditions refrain from vot-
The committee is looking over its fortifications after
having received a virtual declaration of war from one of
he large groups of shipers. It is checking its reserves and
oking to its lines of communication before picking up the
auhtlet and tossing it back into its adversary's face,
ays. the Kelowna Courier.
if,   This growers' committee has canvassed the situation
horoughly. It knows it has the legal powers to go aheafi
nd %et up an elaborate central selling scheme, it knows,
o, that that scheme would undoubtedly be attacked at the
first opportunity. This was made quite plain by theregis-
red letter sent to the cemmittee by the United DiB-
ributors Cooperative,, stating that organization would
ave no part in any discussion about central selling. Being
aware that, if it went forward to complete its task, its
ifforts would be immediately challenged in a court of law,
the-committee naturally desired to ascertain the wishes of
he fruit growers before taking this drastic step.
•    Every possible precaution has been taken to keep the
allot a secret-one. An envelope addressed to a chartered
countant has been enclosed with the ballot and this independent firm will count the ballots and then destroy
i them. The committee members or any person interested in
tithe fruit business will have access to them at on time. Every
[ grower may mark his ballot in perfect confidence that no
I interested party can ascertain how he voted.
These precautions have been taken that each grower
i may unreservedly signify his personal wish and thus a
i clear cut picture of the grower-opinion be obtained.
Future action depends entirely upon that grower opinion as expressed through the medium of the ballots. The
I committee has put it very plainly that if the growers want
•it to continue its efforts to better the marketing condi-
itlons, they must so signify. If on the other hand, they are so
disinterested that they refrain from voting, the cqmmit-
Itee may naturally conclude that the greater percentage of
; growers is content with present conditions and will cease,
I at the present time, its efforts to bring in a central selling

Stewirt to i point • lew hundred
feet beyond Glacier Creek (»bout
four miles trom Stewirt), md
thenct in a north-westerly direction across the Bear River Ridge.
Liter a combined lurvey party
from the United States Ind Canada
defined the boundary as running up
the Bear River Ridge from a point
at or near the mouth of the Salmon
River to what is now Mile 13 on the
Salmon River-Road.
Old-time prospectors caine from
all parti ot the country, two even
came in a home-maid boat which
wai nick-named "The Coffin," and
in which they hid a very exciting
trip before lending at Stewirt.
About a mile and a quarter trom
the mainland a float was-anchored
with chains to facilitate the landing
of freight and passengers. One day
a whale had the temerity to make
Its way up the canal and became
entangled with the chains anchoring the float It carried the float,
Chains and aU, down to the mouth
of the canal. The greatest excitement prevailed in Stewart, and a
committee was appointed to go down
the canal and see what hid become
of' the float. John Stewart, Dad
Rainey, and some othen were in
this party, and found the whale dead
on a bar at the entrance to the
canal, the float still in tow. — H.

Moom Meat Peps You Up
There's one thing ibout Telegraph

there, nor greasy lamb, nor stringy
mutton, not even over-fed veal. But
Sou do get moose-meatl What?
ever tasted m6oae-meat? Why! It's
worth the trip to Telegraph Creek
for just that alone! There's something about moose-meat that perks
you up. You cm eat twice as much
as you would at home—you likely
will—but you'll never feel satiated
nor gorged, although you may be,
actually. You'll feel so strong and
active right after dinner that you
won't want your usual nap at all.
You'U be ready for i big hike, maybe to Dease Lake md back before

in weight, was.captured last year

TODAY'S HOROSCOPE
Today's birthday children are
starting a year of varied fortunes.
There are indications of violent
quarrels, at least some of them with
relatives. The year will not be all
bad, however. The child who is
born today will be moody and very
sensitive. He or she will be fond of
luxury.

WHAT THE PRESS
IS SAYING
FRANCO AS STATESMAN
On the complicated chessboard
of International politics a pawn-
France—hai been pushed through to
become an Important piece. His
abilities aa a statesman are now of
far greater Importance than his military skill. The latter he has demonstrated, but as tho dominant leader
of a shattered, exhausted and embittered people his reputation is still
to be established.
The question Is no longer whether
the Spanish nationalists will win.
It is the use they will make ot their
victory, and Its consequence for the
world, which Is now at issue.—
Washington Post.
There are two strong reasons,
therefore, tor establishing a final
court of appeal In Canada. One is
that such action would be entirely
fitting in view of Canada's nationhood and the lelf-reliant spirit of
her people. The other is that past
experience Indicates that Canada's
interests-would be served just as
well, If not better, if this -change
were made. It Is to be hoped, there-
lore, that parliament will, at* the
present session, provide for a self-

LOS ANGB-J-S, Mar. 27 (AP).-
Heading into Uie lut week at their
annual spring sojourn In southern
California, the hustling Chicago
Cubi retrain, in Uie eyei of this admiring locality, a solid choice to.
win Uie National league championship again.
Peeking into the worry department of Manager Charlei Leo Hartnett, the biggest problems seem to
hinge, around the, slightly rheumatic joints of Shortstop Dick Bar-
tell, and the pitching possibilities ol
the great one himself; Jerome Herman Dem.
The Dean matter isn't such a critical problem, at that, for the simple
reason his ailing arm ii no new
development md the success or failure of the Cubs ii not founded on
his ability to come back.
With or without ol' Dlz, Chicago
hu a fairly good mound corps,
headed by General Bill Lee, ace of
the circuit In 1938, md flanked by
Clay Bryant, Larry French, Charlie
Root, Relief Pitcher Jack Russell
and i couple of recruits who may
prove of value.

Criticism of the "inept and anaemic
declaration" of Prime Minister
Mackenzie King and Hon.R. J. Manion, leader of the Conservative
party, on Canada's stand within the
British Empire "in the midst of a
world situation of unprecedented
g, gravity," was voiced here' last night
' John Bassett, president of the
axette Printing Company of Montreal.
I   ■ Speaking to the congregation of
Howard Tark United church, Mr.
Bassett  contrasted the   "meaningless empty words of the prime minister" with the clause Sir Wilfred
Laurier wrote into his naval defence
resolution 29 years ago when he
.   expressed conviction of the Cana-
dian parliament "to make any sacri.
flee that is required to give the Imperial authorities the most Joyal
and hearty cooperation."
.The Montreal publisher appealed"
'for a "consecration anew" to public service and to a united Canada
etandingfirm with the British commonwealth of nations, as the best
, way'to preserve peace."

There was i greit lack of preliminary, development Mr.. Myers
stated. Due to reluctance of engineers and mining companies to
investigate some regions and due
to other handicaps, everything was,
left to a few prospectors who didn't
have enough money to more than
scratch the surface. It wis practically Impossible at this time for
prospectors   to   get  a   grubstake,
Sirtly their' fault and partly the
ult of the business nien. The
speaker urged financing of the
prospectors and direction of their

Act providing for the temporary
Increase in taxes payable by banking corporations (Ch. 8, statutes of
1038) which Mr. Lapointe indicated Would likely receive similar
treatment in the courts by reason of
the privy council judgment olTan
earlier and more drastic bank tax
act;
: .Act respecting the suspension of
proceedings in respect of certain
kinds of debts (Ch. 25, statutes of
1838); ,
Act to amend and consolidate the
Tax Recovery act 1929; (Ch, 82,
statutes of 1938).
Clashes of-jurisdiction between
the federal parliament and the Alberta legislature have been frequent since Premier William Aberhart and his Social Credit adminis-
tiatioh came into office in August
1939. Most of the clashes have been
in the field of bank andcredit regulation ahd debt adjustment or reduction. The federal power of disallowance had been out of use for
more than 10 years prior to its first
application to Social Credit legislation in 1937.
An objectionable feature of the
bill disallowed today, according to
Mr. Lapointe, was it-daahed with
the Fanners' Creditor! Arrangement act of the Dominion parliament Under .the latter measure
some 6600 farmers in Alberta have
had their debts scaled down from
an aggregate of $58,000,000 to $23,-
000,000. . .. . 5 rr
The, adjusted debts ot these farmers would'be treated in the .same
way as other debts and wiped out
in 1940 Unless legal action was tak-
en earlier.        . ■ '.   .
"The statute has created a great
state of uncertainty as to the debt
situation in the province," Mr. La-
Sotnte reported, 'so much so that
ie superintendent of insurance reports that the companies under his
supervision lending iponey in Alberta are very seriously affected
and cannot with the accuracy desired report their financial condition as reported by law,"
