Since war started domestic wr< vlcu have taken a sound beating ln Britain ai thousand! of women were called up for more Important work or were directed to Jobs which re- leued men for the Iront.line. Vttpy more, attracted by higher wagei in war induitriei, quit their jobi on ihort notice. It'i practically Impossible nowadays to obtain a housekeeper or t lervint. Moit of them ire In their middle agei or have been with the iame family for yeari and don't wish to take on extra work or make a change. Hoipital! and nursing home! have been hard hit and at iome places nurses have been known to scrub floon and polish furniture as well u look after their patlenta. Many young married women, who would like to help the nation in an active role, have been unable to leave home because yiere has been nobody to look after their children and do the housework. ORGANIZING IT The time ha! come when the Government thinks that' domestic work in an Important auxiliary of the home front. Some organization la needed to bridge the gap md Mr. Bevin ii tinkering with a plan for t domestic help service. He has not decided on lhe necesury itepi he told Parliament, but hai been working on a principle somewhat similar to district nursing. It would be a lort of share- the-help plan. Hii aim ii to oTganiie help that would be available for all thoie person! who really need it—those with illness in the house, maternity caui and women who want to volunteer for war work.

MIMBBR OF THI CANADIAN PRI8S AND THI AUDIT BUBIAU OT CIRCULATIONS. TUESDAY, APRIL 18,1948. 11 —■■ '--, Imperialism Old and New Is the British Empire, which has developed so mightily In the last hftlf- celituty, going on to new strengths and to new achievements after this war, or is it going to disintegrate because of inherent disruptive tendencies? While we of Empire stock are not given to doubts of the permanence of the Empire, there are Europeans who see it as an easy-going aggregation of widely-separated but related states that in time of peace put safety last, and give full rein to their individualistic and separatist tendencies. Dr. iTanz Klein, proprietor and editor of the Voice, of Austria—which he started a year ago in Ottawa and has lately moved to New York—has evidently no abiding faith, on the basis of past performance, in British Empire Vision. In the current issue of the Voice of Austria he remaka: "It is in most instances pleasant .to listen to Mr. Brendan Bracken, British Minister of Information. This man who was teasingly called 'Mr. Churchill's red-haired Goebbels' by a Labor " M.P-, seems to be one of the ablest in a great Premier'- Cabinet. '"If anybody thinks,' he said to newspapermen, 'that this generation which has made so many mistakes will make the catastrophic error of destroying or handing over our goodly heritage, I think there is enough toughness in the fibre of the Empire to resist such a suggestion.' "We wish he were right, but his is, unfortunately, a solitary voice in this matter. Even the London Times boasted a while ago about the Empire being a 'self-liquidating concern.' This self- liquidation has made great progress between the wars, and the renewed comradeship-in-arms cannot eliminate the alarming fact that the Commonwealth has long ceased to be a body organized for a common foreign policy. European continentals have watcli- . ed this self-liquidation partly with anxiety, partly, at Berlin, with satisfaction. It.acted as the strongest incentive to German and Japanese'imperiaU ism. Will men like Mr. Bracken be strong enough to reverse this tendency? Or has the imperial spirit of the British race really spent itself. "Colonel Knox, Minister "of "the United States Navy, is propagating a new program of safety. He wants naval and air bases around the world, especially in the Pacific. His far-sightedness will appeal to the nation. The question is whether this safety will be based on a British-American cooperation or on Ameriea's strength alone. This decision depends mainly on the British themselves." Yes, and we can specify Canada, on past performance, as distinctively without a foreign policy, and until lately, without even the primary instinct for self-defence. . With two lessons 25 years apart on the same subject, lessons of the most terrible nature, Canadians should realize that defence is a continuing and not a completed job. Opin to iny ruder.

Lut fortunate wai an officer who wai killed getting Information about a special type of tank the Germani were using during the liege of Tobruk, a number of these tanks had been damaged on the outskirts, but it wu suicide to try to reich them. Thii particular officer flew In at night, made an examlhatlon and paued tht Information out, but wai ihot down md killed while trying to escape. Just Inside' the Egyptian frontier a Mark IV Unk was captured intact and waa headed back toward Cairo. The Germani made deiperate efforti to keep the Brltith experts from examining it and bombed the tank almost every tread ot the way. The ' tank reached Its destination but only after it had been hit, Jarred and iet afire. The tank wai taken to Suez apd placed on the forward deck of' a Trans-Atlantic liner for ihipment to Britain. That night the Germini made t heavy air attack on Suez shipping, hit the liner and by day: light it wai lilting badly, and enveloped "in flames. Port authoritiei and naval officlali were convinced the tank could not be uved,. but a young Britiih officer who happened to be in Suez thought otherwise. He boarded the ihip by .rope ladder and made hli way forward to where the tank wu resting on was Intense. The officer, Maj.
