\\'ith this outline in vicw, the British naval succcsscs of rccctit wccks arc sccn in trite pcr-

spcctivc. The cncniy SlllllllilflllC nicnacc has bccu lnrgcly ovcrcoiiic. 'l he blockade has bccu llQlllCllﬂl. The safe couvoyittg ol rciiltorcc-

These gnugcsscs are not sporadic and stidtlcn. although good hick lcnt a lntntl; thcy arc the ittcvitablc coiiscquciiccs of plans wcll laid and stuck to un- der the strategical tilan adopted by the .*\1lics. The Winnipeg Free Press, to whom we are indebted for falling attention to the importance of the three-fold .»\llicd plan, says that the first major stcp, tliztt of rctiiinitig command of the scci, has already been practically achieved. Gcr- man shipping has been swept off tbc seas, and the ignoniiny of the defeat of the enemy awed the world, niadc the ncutrals pause and the Al- lies to clu-cr. Sporadic cfforts at enemy minc- lziyiiig and torpcdoing may be continued, but the issue of supremacy on the sea, four months aftcr the outbreak of the war, has been deter Illitl(‘(l.

What next? Battles on land may intcrvene. but command of thc air ivill be the coining stra logical problem for the .-\llics. That control must be won, that supremacy attained, no niaucr how long it may take to gain it or how much wastage it may involve. Only then will the way be opcri for the Allies to stage that ultiinati- battle on land which will be their “concentration of a dccisivc force at a decisive point at a de- cisive moment." There is the possibility of a revolution in Germany before the final stage is reached, but we should not bank too much on that factor. What is important is to realize that the ivar is not being waged haphazartlll. but with deadly deliberation, and that already British sea-power has achieved one of the major lims of Allied strategy.

The Bacon Agreement

4| his year-end review of farm activities, published in Saturday's issue, Mr. “YR. Shaw, Deputy Minister of Agriculture, stressed the increase in hog production and the importance of this factor in Prince Edward Islands contri- bution to the Empire's war efforts. The point is well taken, and is a reminder that Canada rc- cently contracted to supply Great Britain with 4.8oo,000 pounds of bacon every wcck. It is also a. reminder of tlic failure of Canada to take full advantage of the opportunity offered by the Ottawa agreements of i932, under which the Dominion was allotted a quota of 280,000,- 000 poundsd a year. Now the British marltct is prepared to absorb up to 5,600,000 pounds a week, which adds up to the impressive total of 29i,2oo,o0o pounds a year.

The Montreal Star recalll that, at the time of the Ottawa agreements in I932, bacon h0g5 were selling at tlircc and a quarter cents per pound. Within one ycrir following, the price had jumped to nine cciits. Since then the avcr- age pricc, your by _vcar, worked out as follows (pcr hnndrerl lbsji: H134, $7.85; 1935, $8.21; 1931i, Sbbot); 193;", $8.110; i938, $9.l5. It is esti- ntatcd that this inarkct obtitincrl by the Bennett (lovcrtimviit has bccn worth forty million dol- lars pcr ziiuitun to Czinridian pig producers.

The pflCt‘ fixcd for bncnn and hams under the now agreement with (ircrtt Britain works out to about lllnc cents a pound. live weight, at si-ubnztrtl.

The 125th annivcrsai'y of the signing of the Trcatyt of Ghciit, which cndcd the war of i812, has just bccn tiasscd, without cclcbrzitioti, for the YCZISOH that Canadians and .\incricails ac- ccpt the pcaccful relations that have prevailed so l0ll as a niattcr of course. The war of a hundrcgil and twcntyv-fivc years ago was not a vcrv wickcd oiic, as wars go. ln the Maritime Provinces tlicrc was little hard fccliitg bctwccn the Maritiiiicrs and the ticoplc of Maine, and it was inuch the sztnic with rcspcct to thc pcoplc of Quebec and tho lxirdcriiig statcs of Ycritiotit and New York.

Tihc nortlicrit part of Maine wcnt t0 the United States, but this ter- ritorv is frcclv accessible to Canadians and thcre arc rcsorts thcre ivhich in the suniincr are as much Canadian as Aiiicricziti because of the hosts of visitors who go thcre from Montreal and other ccntrcs in Qucbcc to holiday. The New York Tinics, in dcaling with the I25 years of peace, states that the “undcfcnded frontier, 4,000 nlilcs of land and watcr, is a common glory of the Dominion and the Lluitcd States." The two nations have lived peacefully together; “peacefully they have disposed of subjects of debate between them." Tihcy are better friends than ever because commonsense has been suc- cessfully applied in tlicir international dealings. In consequence, good relations are tnadc and - ‘t kept wi bout force; ‘ ‘ I‘

Rt. Hon. R.B. Bennett must be “cliiicltling fit to die” at time's revenge. llis most bitlvr newspaper opponent while in office and at tlic last. general election was the Montreal Gazette. It practically hounded him to defeat at the polls, charging him with all sorts of political sins of commission and ontission, chief of which ivas his allcgcd inclination t0 socialism. Judge Mr. Bennett's surprise thcn on Thursday when he opened his Gazette to find a. double column large type front page editorial headed “R. B. Bennett Needed in Canada.” Our Montreal contemporary, with whom consistency is not always a jcwcl, gocs on to say: “.\lr. Bennett, who is to address the Royal Empire Society hcrc today, has bccn quoted as saying that be has no dcsirc to rcturn to politics but that if he did so it would be in Canada rathcr than in (ircnt Bri- tain. The prefcreiicc is a natural one and tlicre are some vcry sound and compelling reas- ons why the former Prime Minister should be urgcd to excrcisc it. The Gazctte was not. always able to scc eye to cyc with Mr. Bennett l in regard to his doincstic policies or in regard to ccrtztin charztctcrisitics of his leadership; nev- crtltclcss, it docs st-e, as many others must do, an opportunity which, if Mr. Bennett can be in- duced to take it, can tncan tremendous service to the Dominion and to those nations Wllll which Cattada is associated in tlic [irosccutioti of this ivztr. If lic has defects as a politician the vcry prcscncc of thosr dcfccts qualifies him in great- cr dcgrce for a ivork in which no political con- sideration should bc permitted to play the smallest part. llis proper place in these critical (lays is in the Parliament of Canada, assuming that the nttitndc of the present Prime llliuistci cxcluilcs him frotii direct participation ln thc govcrnmcnt of thc cOuntrv."
