McDOUGALL\nCtntrtl Press Ctntditn Writer\nA private soldier In a regiment\nof the line in the last war, accepting his share of the slime and\nmuck, general discomfort and dan-\n{[er with the rest of his comrades;\nn this war, number one in the\nhierarchy ot Canada's soldiery, director general of Canada's war effort by land, sea and air; that is\nthe military story . of Norman\nRogers, Minister of National Defence. He is not an Horatio Alger\nJr. hero. He Is a quiet man. ot unassuming bearlns-, with t friendly\nsmile and engaging manner and it\nil moit unlikely thtt he ever asoir-\ned to guide the military affairs\nOf his country in war time. He\ndoesn't possess the commanding\nfigure or the colorful and aptresive\npersonality of Sir Sam Hughes,\nwho held the oositlon of Minister of\nMllltla ln 1914. But with all his\nmodesty ol manner, there is plenty\nof iron In the snirrt of Norman\nRogers, lots of Initiative and driving power. His Intellectual equipment is admittedlv of the highest\norder; he's a scholar, but no\narmchair scholar, and his spiritual\nchin is broad and firm. It he has\ntact he has will nower u well and\nit ii this combination thtt will\nenible him to handle that far from\neasy assignment the direction of\nt war office. If the soldier of the\nline, whose constitution for years\nafter the war suffered from the\nrigors of trench life, never dreamed that he would be called uoon\nto carry the burdens of chief of his\ncountry's forces In the next wtr,\nthis does not mein thtt ht will not\nmtkt t good job of lt\nEDUCATED IN NOVA ICOTIA\nIn t few wordt here tre some\nof the salient points in his career.\nHe comes of an old Nova Scotian\nfamily.. If Norman Rogers has an\neasy flowlnt pen, he comes by that\nhonestly. His mother, Grace McLeod Rogers, Is the author of magazine articles that are Interesting\nand gracefully written. He was\neducated in the Cumberland County\nAcademy, and attended the Acadian\nUniversity. He served from 1M5\nto 1917 in France and Flanders, for\na time with the Cmadian Mounted\nRifles md later with Divisional\nSignals. As already mentioned his\nhealth suffered, but the unremlt-\ntent csre of his family hu brought\nhim round; now he can perform\nany amount of hard work and he\nIs an Indefatigable worker. He won\na Rhodes scholarship at Oxford,\nand took a number of degrees at\nthat university. He was appointed\nProfessor of History at the Acadian University; wu admitted to\nthe Bar of Nova Scotia; was Secretary to Mr. Mackenzie King in 192?\nand was Professor of Economics\nat Queent, Kingston, from 1929 to\n1935. In the general election of\n1935, he gained hit seat in Parliament,, and received the portfolio of\nlabor\/\nHON. NORMAN ROGER!\nHe had anything but tn euy Job\nln the Depirtment of Labor. With\ntha care and precision of the\nicholir he githered in every torm\not statistics relating to unemployment md drew a composite picture\nof the whole unemployment situation. Aided by genuine humanitarian instincts and a broad scholarship In economics, he did his very\nbest to solve the most difficult of\nall economic problems. He gave\nthe best that was in him, unstint-\nIngly. He never lost his head ln the\nface of the heated and withering\nattacks trom the opposition ln\nparliament; was cool, collected and\nbalanced in debate; patiently and\nlucidly explained the various methods adopted by the government to\nalleviate distress and Increase em-\neloyment throughout the country.\nia never Indulged in impassioned\noratory, nor did he ever hide my\nshortcomings he saw in his attempts\nto cure unemployment A correspondent writing on a protracted\nunemployment debate luggested\nRogers should havt a medal for\n\"endurance in listening,\" and added that lt Rogers made mistakes,\nthese could not be attributed to\nlick of sincerity or ltck ot work.\nThere ll no doubt thit he favorably\nimpressed labor leaden, provincial\nofficials and others with whom he\ncame in close contact in his work\nu head of the Libor Depirtment\nwith hit sincerity, his unfltgging\nzeal and hli devotion to duty.\nADMINIITRATIVE ABILITY\nHt hu brought thess tttrlbutts\nwith him in his new sphere. He\nihowed administrative ability ln\nthe Labor Department and he\nihowed be had plenty of \"guts\". If\nhis scholastic training might not be\nconsidered the essential or normal\nequipment to be found in the knapsack ot a soldier, it is not to be\noverlooked that he hu the deep-\nseated knowledge ot warfare learnt\nfrom the ground up when he served\nas a Tommy in the trenches in\nFrance. He ll the administrative\nhead of hit department. He has the\ntacticians and staff college men u\nhia usistants Just u Hore Bellsha\nln London hu his. He dislikes red\ntape and slack traces but he will\nitand up In the collar with ill hii\nitaff.\nJutt it wt miy bt ture without\ndefinite knowledge on tht point\nthtt he wu never late on parade,\nhad a dirty rifle or shirked fatigues\nwhen he wu a common soldier, we\nmay bt equally confident that the\nsame clear star of duty Is shining\nbefore him now when Canadas\nwhole military machine in in hit\ncharge. f\nMatch How Part of Auto Eqlpment for Londoners\nIngeniut Londoners havt gotten tround the\nrationing of gasoline ln England by Instating coal-\nburning, gu-produclng units on their automobiles.\nA pretty Londoner, top, directs a coal-dealer to\ndeposit his \"Mask diamonds\" ln the container on\nthe back of her car.

It it t war in\nwhich bmk balances tre mort important thm bayonets, t .wir in\nwhich men'i nervu ire tht prlmiry target!, not their blood itreimi,\ni wir which will be won by the\nildt having the strongut financial\nind economic itructure tnd which\ncan withstand shocks ind preuure\nthe longut.\nArmlu irt ln tht tield, nivles\ntrt in t life md duth itruggle in\nthe North Set, tir forcu drop i\nfew bombt.on strategic bues\u2014but\nthey are simply backdrops for the\nreal itruggle on Uie economic md\ndiplomatic fronti.\nSEe BLOCKADI\nTtkt tht tconomic front Tht\nAlliu hivt imposed \u2022 two-wty let\nblockide of Germm trade, not to\ntttrvt thi Germm people md lower the resistance ot the Germm\ntrmy, but to ilow down tht wheeli\nof Germtn Industry md, more important thm thit to throtUe htr\ntccumulitiom of free currency.\nEvery diy ln tht week, Germtny\ntnd tht Allies bid tgainst tach\nother for surpluses of food md\nraw miteriili in the Bilkant, in\nScandinavian countriu, Holland,\nBelgium and Italy. Germany needs\nthe goods to but tht Blocks^,\nthe Alliei cinnot ifford to let her\nhtvt than to they buy them up,\nguoline, whut iron ore md til\nsorts of food producti.\nGerminy retinites by tU torti\nof threati against neutral tountrlu\nwho trade with Britain md Frince,\nThat'i the war ot nervu, a patented device of the Nazis whose diplomatic specialty hu been intimidation tgtinit imaller, weaker na-\nUoni.        \\\nWAR'S DIPLOMACY\nTake the diplomatic front It ties\nln cloiely to the economic tront\nbecauie both ildu compete with\neach other for the friendship md\nusistanci of neutrals. And in the\nlong run, money and a record tor\nkeeping promisu will win.\nGermany hu the dubious assistance of Russia, won tt Uie expense of the Baltic countriu. But\nthe Alliu hivt Turkty't open\nfriendship end moral support The\nGermm - Ruuian non - aggreuion\npact hu alienated Italy and Spain,\ntwo Catholic nations and Japan in\nthe East Russia's Invasion ot Finland hu alienated the Scandinavian countriei. Holland and Belgium tear a German invulon.\nThia diplomatic front needi conitant ittenUon beciuse of the\nenigmiUc character ot Russia's\nforeign policy. In lomt respects, It\nIs the most important front bf ill\nbecause a false step by tht Alliu\nor   failure , to   counter   German\nSressure or propagmda might have\niuitrout effects.\nIt li to the idvmtagt of tht Alliu\nto IociIIk the wir u fir u possible. At the moment the most important object of Allied diplomatic\npolicy li to convince tht wdtld\nGermtny is itill Public Enemy\nNumber Ont md not permit her tb\nemerge in e subservient role to\nRuuia.\nMEDIAEVAL SIEGE\nThe military ilde of thle wir li\ni modern version ot tht mediieval\nliege. The allied irmles tit tight\nIn Frtnce'i mighty Maginot Lint.\nTht Germm trmy is entrenched in\ntht Siegfried Line. There htve been\ni pon die raids, reconnaissance\nparties, a few limited offensives\nchiefly under the protection of\nheavy artillery fire\u2014but the two\nmighty anniu htvt yet to tut\nttch other.\nThli strategy of military Inactivity Is deliberate on the pirt of tht\nAlliu. The Usenet of Allied itrat-\negy ia tht time factor\u2014time to\nbuild up to Germany'! tir strength,\ntime to train md equip Britain's\nlind irmy, tlmt to weaken German resistance by tht nivil blockide, Ume to hirneu the lndustrlil\nind finmclal ruourcu of tha Domlnloni md time to outwit Germmy on tht vitally Important diplomatic front\nIt'i a new theory of wtr, or\nrather, in adaptation of an old\ntheory, that you can lay liege to\nt nation of 90,000,000 people by\nland, nt and ilr, whilt you soften\nher up by flnmclil, economic md\ndiplomatic blows. It'i t cold calculating policy, strangling or starving your enemy rather thm finishing him with cold steel.\nMUST BE CHANGE\nOf count, tveryone idmiti thli\nphast of tht war will not lut forever. At the financial md economic cordi draw tighter around\nGermany'! lifeline, Germany will\nfight and tight recklessly, boldly\nand with the grim determination\not a man who knowt he must win\nquickly if he expects to win at aa\nGermany sUll has her trmy, md\niht itill his her sir forct. Thoie\nagenti of deith will be used before\nGermmy acknowledges defeat\nWhen Germany launches \"htr ttttck it t matter of conjecture but\nthere It no doubt it ill ibout\nwhether the will.\nOn the dty war wu declared,\nmlllloni of Britons md millions of\nFrenchmen scmned tht skies for\nUie ipproach of Goering's air armada of bombing machines. But\nthey didn't arrive, that day .nor\nhave they arrived yet.\nLike mmy other feature! of this\nwir conflict, the wir in the ilr\nhain't lived up to idvmct noticei.\nThere hiven't been icoru er hundred! of Nui plmu raining death\nand destruction on Britiih and\nFrench cities in a desperate attempt to destroy the morale of the\npeople, cripple their industries and\nforce thalr governments to sue for\npuce or face revoluUon \u2014 the\ntheory ot tht Blitzkrieg.\nIN THE AIR     . ,\nThere hu been nothing likt that\nGerman planes, a few ot them,\nhave dropped bombs on British\nsoil, attacked ships at aea md at\nnaval basu and reconnoitred Inland. British plmes havt dona tht\numt but the Kale of ilr fighting\non both sides hu been extremely\nlimited md tha damage!, almoit\nnegligible.\nfrom Uit Alliu' viewpoint there\nIt I reuon for thit apparently\nqueer md half-hearted way of\nfighting a powerful foe. When the\nwar itarted, the Alliu had fewer\nbombers, fewer fighters than Germany, and fewer trained pilots. So\nthey decided, as long u Germmy\ndid not invite retaliation by bombing Britain and France, to sit Ught\nmd watch Uie wheels of industry\nbring them up to air parity with\ntht Nazis. Onct again, they could\nafford to wait and u long u Germany wu content to give them\ntime, they would take lt gladly\nand utilise it to build more planes,\ntrain more pilots, ftbricatt more\n-anti-aircraft gunt md complete\ntheir ARP squads.\nTha war at ua It tht ont phase\nof this mighty conflict thit his run\ntrue to form. The British Ntvy hu\niwept Germm commerce from the\ntrade routes ot tht world, held\nGermmy'i submarine warfare to\nexceptionally low lossu, found\ncounter weapons to the magnetic\nmlnu and convoyed thouiandi of\nmerchant ships to md from the\nporta ot this country.\nPRICE IS PAID\nBut a prlct hu been ptid for\nthli domination of the leu. The\ntircraft ctrrier Coungeoui, the\nbattleship Royal Oak, Ihe armed\ncruiier Rawalpindi md imall vu-\nsels have been lost.\nDuplte the.U-boat the mint end\ncommerce raiders like the Dcutscb-\nImd, tht British people are getting\nall the food they want all the\nmilitary lupplies they can buy, all\nthe raw materials their factoriu\ncan use\u2014thanks to the millions of\nset milu being steamed by the\nnavy.\nPerhapi the mott Important duty\nof tht navy these dtys is tht imposition of Uie two-wty blockade\nagainst Germmy. If the British\nNavy can help it not a pound of\nwar supplies reaches Germany, not\ne pound of exporti cm the snip to\nforeign mirkets to iccumulite fret\ncurrency. The Null tlwtyi hive\nclaimed lt wai sea blockade that\ndefeated Germany in 1918, not\nallied military strength.\nWhether that is true or not the\ntact remains Germany today it in\nthe grip of a blockade just u\nstrong and just u effective u the\nlast one. And thia one wu imposed\nat tht ttart of the wtr, not three-\nquarters ot Uit wty through It U\nin tht First Grett Wir.\n\u2022Nrlamt Sailji Nrmu\n' Telephone 144\nClassifier* Advertising Rates\nlie per line per lniertion.\n44c per line per week 18 coniec-\nutive insertions for cost of 4).\n9141 per line i month (28 timu).\n(Minimum 2 llnu per lniertion).\nBox numbers Uc extra.
