i The Ogdensburg Conference i

(Hon c. n. csimi In The Gazette, Montreal)

O

The recent Ogdensbiirg meeting 1 of the British Government, Lord

between President Roosevelt and Prime Minister Madsenzle K1118 has created an Impression, not only 1n Berlin, but also In certain de- Ieatist. circles hi this country, that the Government of Canada has become very pessimistic regarding the probable outcome of the Battle of Britain and is now hastily pro- partng Its political and diplomatic defences against the day of wrath when Germany's conquest of Bri- tain is completed.

As reported by the Canadian Prime Minister, the meeting took place at the request of the Pres‘. dent of the United States, and, so far as officially made known. the meeting merely resulted in an oral iigieeitient. for the apéaohitmetit. of a joint board to eonsi er and report upon the common problems relat- Ing to the safety of Canada and the United States. It. is difficult to see how Mr. Mackenzie King could have refused such a request eman- ating from the President, of the iieigtiboring republic. There eould be no reasonable objection to the appointment of such a joint board, composed of military and naval of- ficials. and its careful considera- tion of prospective problems which may arise In the future, If and ivh-cn the British forces are defeat- ed by Gerlnaaiy, as it was only In such an event that such problems seemed likely to become acute. I

do not believe that Mr. Mackenzie King has been actuated b_v a conviction of the probable de- feat of Great Britain l'n the pend-

Lothtan repIIed that It "certainly did." Nevertheless any national

llcy of any couitry Is likely to gcome seriously unsettled and un- reliable In case of Its overwhelm- Ing defeat, and evidently the chief anxiety of the Washington Govern- ment, is not the possibility of s. Ger- man conquest. of Britain, but lest. In the event of such conquest, the British fleet may not be salved for the protection of the Unified Stat/es.

O I

In the meantime, most flagrant propaganda Is being carried on In several sections of this country to convince the Canadian people that the conquest of Great Britain Ls not of vital concem to Canada. We have recently been told by an em- Inent professor of Toronto Unl- verstty that “we have now two loyalties-one to Britain and the other to North America . . North America ts going to be supreme now. 'I‘he relative Importance of Britain is going to sink no matter what happens." Other defeatlsts ardently advocate that, whatever

the outcome of the Battle of 1311-. ward Island has been

tain, the future political and econo- mic Interests of Canada are bound up with those of the republics which are comprised in the Pan- Arnerican Unlvl. Their lamentable Ignorance of the social and econo- mic eonditions 111111011 prevail In some of those countries of South and Central America compels them to restrict their propaganda to reiterated assertions that there are mystic bonds of union. created by

in; contest; but there are many, who trike a deep Interest In the rxilizirril and economic future of Canada, who are waiting, with patience 311d deep concern, a more. complete ctficlal statement by him’

on the support and kmplleatlotis ofl

11111 O'I<".1?IISbUI'g agreement. The ]1l'0'tf‘1'lIO'1 of the United States, not. only on its Atlantic but also on Its Pacific coast, undoubtedly furnish- ed President Roosevelt's motive for seeking the Ogdetisburg Confer- vnec- and the appointment of a joint board to consider the common prob'ems of Canada and the Unit- ed stazes 1n matters relating to de- fence. Nevertheless Canada's most. pres-tug problem is apparently ex- cluded frcm the consideration of the joint board, that Is, the problem of defeating German efforts to complete the conquest of Great lsritain. and it 1s that conquest ivhieh now threatens the most vital interests of the_CanadIan people. l O

I can see no evidence of a. strong

American neighbors to prevent the

artificial meridians of longitude, which compel Canada's future par- tIcIpatIon In the political life and the mlitary and naval defence of all those nondescript, republics of the Western Hemisphere.

As such hallucinations of the de- featist elements of our tiopulatlon are becoming rampant. if would tend to stabilize public confidence If the Prime Minister. at an early day, should make a more complete exposition of the Import and im- plications of the nublic pollcv, If any, which was initiated by him at the Ogdensburg conference. In the opnlon of most Canadians, the pressing primary need is that we should complete, in the scortesl possible time, careful preparation of such offensive measures as 111111 preclude the pcssibility of Britain's defeat In the petiding conflict, and to prevent the German forces from making a future bftltlPgfbllllcl of the Eastern Provinces of Catuicia.

The Architectural rift In London (Exchange)

SIrr-As a patriotic and truly democratic people we are all deep- Iy Interested In not only winning the war, but also In the welfare of our Island soldier boys In Illl Its various relationships. The Red Cross Is doing wonderful work, as well as other kindred organiza- tions. In supplying the necessary material comforts. but let us not forget the Scriptural Injunction and quotation given by our Lora Jesus that “man shall not IIve by bread alone but. by every word that proceedeth out of the mouth of God."

The British and Foreign Bible society In Canada and Newfound- land has established an Emergency Fund, through which It Is supply- Ing each soldier, who goes over- seas, with a copy of the New Testament. Towards this objec- five the Province of Prince Ed- allocated the sum of about $750 as Its share to be raised. Of this amount only $55 has yet. come In. and while we all realize the multiplicity of ap- peals made these days, yet we should feel that this spiritual ob- jective is of the highest Impor- tance, and should not In any wise be overlooked.

Manning 50 Destroyers

(Ottawa Journal)

It was 1i tizippy thought, that the United State destroyers 110w being incorporiiteu In the British Navy siioud be given the names of towns {common to both countries-an B/du- ‘ed touch that the first should be called "Churchill" for the Prime NIIIIISLCI‘, but Iaiiing wiinln the rules because Churchill, 11. happens, is the name of a i1iliage in Somerset. and a, town in Nevaua.

'Ine suggesticn that such names be chosen came from Miss Tania Long, a tneniuei" of the Lennon stall of uie New York Herald TYIDUIIB. It. has been arrreeo that the names of ships carrieu 1n the Umfeq States navy could not be ccnunueu, oe- cause many eommeitioraied great Americans and in Britain hau no SIJCCIQII stgniiincatice. some wanted tnein tianieci for the 48 statics. with Washington and Lincoln ior the two over. A11 Admiralty official was tern-flu; his hair over the prolxem ciie may wneit Miss Long called, toying with the idea of naming them alter British inoutitains. iviiss 1on8 prcposed they be named "altar snmetlting WlIlCll botli cOuIILPP-S IIIIYC 111 common-towns, tcr titstance.’ adding the thought 1,111.1. this would encourage peopie 111 Lne uniteu States to maintain an Inter- cst 111 the ships.
