MARCH 2. 1908* llur" Surplus llaiinod Flsh Concern hasgbeen expressed in the _l-I9"' lature over the prospects for the marketing of Island canned fish (other than lobsterlfllls Yet". and the seriousness of the situation is furthcf emphasized by the letter in todays Forum col- umns from Mr. S. H. Burhoe, president of the P E. l. Fisheries Federation. It seems hard to P? " understand why, in view of the need of food for relief purposes in Europe, all our surplus fish pro- ducts in the Maritimes could not be thus dis- posed of. There has been set up by Parliament an organization known as the Fishery Prices 5UP- port Board, whose principal functionsore that of buying and selling fish, and the giving of dc- . ficicncy payments" to fishermen. The latter op- .“ oration seems never to have been fully explain- ’ cd, but the key to the present situation lies in the Board's authority as a selling organization. Parliament has granted the BoardIIIH °PP"°P"" otion of $25,000,000 to be' used in just such em- crgencies as the industry seems now to be fac- ing. Another matter of importance in this can- nection has also been mentioned in the Legis- lature. The per capita consumptionpf fish in Canada is about the lowest of any fish produc- ing country in the world. A third function might well be giventhe Fishery Prices 5lllfPP" Board, whereby a vigorous policy of advertising could be instituted. This was done in the case of our canned lobster during the war years, and with marked success. Educating the public to eat more fish will doubtless be o slow process, but it is something that will have to be done if the industry is to be put on a permanently sound basis.‘ Canada In l5 Years Rt. Han. Jamcs G. Gardiner is convinced that Canada's population can be doubled with- iii l5 years. Addressing a service club audience in Toronto lost week, Mr. Gardiner said: "ln my opinion we should set ourselves thc task of incrgasing our population by at least 500,000 a year immediately, with an objective of reaching a million a year inside ten years. ln r other wards, we should be driving for-double our present population in not lass than 15 years." . This, comments an exchange, is not as tall yl ' nn estimate as it may appear. Canada's popula- i tion is now estimated at about 12,500,000,’ and its not natural increase is not less than 1.5 per cent pcr annum. Allowing that births will ox- cced deaths by approximately 2,000,000 in the next decade and a half, on immigrant tide aver- aging 700,000 a year would bring the total up to 25,000,000 by 1963. This is not only gwithin the bounds of possibility,--it looks like something almost certain of attainment. There are scores of millions of Britons and desirable Continental people who mill migrate from Europe within the next l0 or 15 years. It is not too much to ex- pect that 10,000,000. of them will discover in due time that Canada is the land of-the great- cst promise on earth for settlers of character, who are ambitious ta work for what they get, and to get what they work for. {l3 . ll. Food contracts According to a Landon correspondent, it is believed in England that there will be a pro- tracted delay before fate of Anglo-Canadian food contracts is definitely decided. Continua- tion of the contracts would likely involve a three-cornered arrangement between Canada, the United States and Britain. lt will not be a simple matter to work out such an arrange- ment. ' Some such procedure as the following is visualized by London observers: First, the United States Congress must pass the Marshall Plan. A Marshall Plan administrator will have to be ap- pointed. He presumably will have to decide whether the Anglo-Canadian food contracts qual- ify for Marshall assistance. The United States Iioy wish to question prices or to make condi- tions regarding these contracts. At all events whatever the procedure it can not be completed by March Ill the date on which the contracts come up for review. The three-cornered negati- -otions will take time and the final result may disappoint those who are hoping for straight and simple contracts. lt is believed that, in view of Britain's fin- ancial emergency, the British government is most reluctant to buy beef, bacon and cheese from Canada. While the government would not- urally like to maintain thcgbucon and cheese ra- tions in the United Kingdom, it is fclt that. in Britain's present economic position she cannot qiiffdrd to spend dollars on these foods. Cab- jnat ministers in Britain foal that Britain should molrc do with what bacon and cheese phe can buy from sterling and soft currency areas. . \ a, During the last Anglo-Canadian talks it lwos estimated that Britain's financial deficit irwould be $145 million in the first quarter of the {your and that this could lie mat with $100 mil- _ ran from Britain's reserves and S45 million from n= cradlr. lr ll new thought that this - rtoa optimistic and that the actual h . lt would scorn that lilt- JQI... ,.

Being conscientious by nature, she wrote to the Ministry of Food to ask haw she should dispose of it. The answer she received wos,"'You should not draw so much milk from the cow." Alberta's C. C. F. leader has taken the So- cial Credit governmcnt to task for continuing to retain the name after dropping all the prin- ciples of Major Douglas’ Social Credit. The C-. C. F., however, are open to the criticism of being out and out socialists but not having "socialist" in their party name. A somewhat amusing sidelight on the Prices Committee investigation appears in the Montreai Gazette. lt seems that after sensational evidence of a secret and sinister meeting of bakers in Tor- onto to discuss bread prices, the whole thing blew up with the disclosure that the bread and bakery products radministrator had attended and been active at the meetilig.‘ ' Today when the tendency towards standard- ization is so strong it is encouraging to hear of a govetnment official like Ontario's chief dir- ‘cctor of education praising teachers for their "commendable disregard for standardized prac- tice and program." After all the curriculum is intended to assist teachers, not frustrate them. W W fi I Horace Walpole, 4th Earl of Orford, author ahd letter-writer, died this date Feb. 1797. He was the son of Sir Robert Walpole, Prime Min- lster whose record Prime Minister Mackenzie King hopes to surpass. While Horace was a littcrataur with social and antiquarian tastes, his father had none of these qualities. Sir Robert is described as being a man of coarse moral fibre, gross pleas- ures, and no intellectual tastes, who undoubtedly gave a low tone to politics and did not hesitate to stoop to corruption to secure party successes. ‘I W k i Mr. Lionel Bertrand (L-Terrebonnc) has been informed in a Commons return that Fam- ily Allowance payments to Quebec have totalled $199,037,068 compared with a national total o1 $594,403,227. In old age and blind pensions, Quebec received $14,457,996 last year and a total of $103,588,347 since they became law. The Federal Government, under the vocational. training assistance agreement, had approved contributions of $2,691,400 to the province for Z8 technical and arts and crafts school projects.

The Law of Moses represents an attempt to build good men and a good smlety by orders accompanied by sanctions. Men were instructed and exhorted. They were told What. not. to r10. and punished if they dlsobeyed. Those who obeyed were promised material rewards. The regulatlons were external, and thelr ultimate basis was the fear of God's anger. The law could only punish the wrongdoer; 1t could not. set. hlm right.
