Constructive recommendations for the Oiihdlllitlllﬂ 01 the dairy indus-

We commend the Department of

of the dairy industry by the as- sistance given to calf club work, bull loaning policy, demonstration work, etc., and ask all reasonable us be continued with ‘renewed

vigor.

We. mmen‘ to the dairy offl- cials the desirability of more pub- licity through our provincial news-A Pipers at regular intervals on all plans of dairy work.

It is in no spirit of exultation that Canadians look upon the present amazing situation in the United States. Instead, there is genuine sympathy with a nation in distress. Short years ago the Republic stood at the zenith of its marvellous progress. Prosperity reigned supreme, and everywhere there was evidence of wealth and power. Morley was enthroned. Washington was in very truth n "gay Capital.

Today sees a wreckage of all this. Money has collapsed. The banking system has broken down, and the hanks are closed. The people are in panic, dominated by fear of they know not what. Those with money in the banks would with- draw it, but. authority will permit them to remove only a small percentage of what is their own. _ _

On Saturday at Washington, amid scenes impressive in their splendor, a new President entered the White House. But behind the galety, the music and all the ceremonial pro- ceedings lurked the grim spectre of apprehension. What next? The plain truth is that no one knows. Fear has weakened the spirit of the people, and, with a hope that is pathetic, they call to their new President to do something; anything to bring relief and restore confidence; banish fear.

Of course, the condition cannot last. There is always the turning point; and surely it is at hand. As President Roosevelt said on Saturday: “This great nation will endure as it has endured, will revive and will prosper. So, ﬁrst of all, let me assert my ﬁrm belief that the only thing we have to fear is fear itself-mameless, unrensolling. terror which paralyzes needed efforts to convert retreat into advance.” This seems to reveal leadership that a fear- stricken people will follow.

“Look here upon this picture, and on this." said Hamlet. And, in view of conditions in the neighboring Republic, Canadians may be pardoned if, without smugness or sell’- complllcency, they turn lo the picture at home. This ls what they see: Business as usual. The doors of every bank wide open. and all these institutions enjoying the unfaltering confidence of the public. The gtock exchanges are not greatly affected. Financial leaders are watchful, but not aiarmed- The people are going and coming about their ‘usual affairs. ln a time calling for steadiness Canadians remain steady. Depression? Yes, Canada has her share; but there is no panic. Looking on these two pictures, the
