Mil- burn Co., Ltd., Toronto, Ont* Inauguration of a new air rente from North America to Europe by way of Greenland, Hudson’s Bay and Fort Churchill js under consideration by a $rou>p .representing' British, American, German and Fi'entch in terests, delegates attending the mid west section Bankers’ Association tor Foreign Trade at French Lick Springs, Ind., on Thursday of last Week were told by C.ase R. Howard, manager of the foreign department, Canadian Bank of Commerce, New York and an Exeter Old Boy. Mr, Howard said that tlie group which is now planning the new in ter-continent air trade route is at present investigating inehmediate landing points, collecting meteorpl® ogical and geogjraphicai data and compiling information on costs. Technical advisers ofz the group, ac cording to Mr. Howard, include Vjl- hjalmur .Steffansson the famous Arc tic explorer and Parker D. Cramer, former pilot of Sir Hubert Wilkins, who has flown over a portion Qf the territory included in the proposed route. This group, the speaker add ed, had the assurance of backing of Canadian capital and will receive en couragement from the Canadian Aid Force Department and the - British Air Ministry. Mr. Cramer was among the first to advocate use of ths route and has spent the greater part of three yeras in investigating its feasibility, ac cording. to Mr. Howard. The result of these', researches, he continued, offers "(conclusive proof that the so- called northern route" is the .surest and most practical for commercial purposes., Weather data, covering) a long period of years, show that, at mospheric conditions are such that flying may .be conducted safely and regularly on the entire^Woute during all seasons of the year, “The proposed route will be slight ly north - of the new shipping lane to be inauguarated by grain vessels from the port of Churchill through Hudson’s Bay, Hudson’s Straits and via the North Atlantic-to Europe. "Previous fligths by Mr? Cram er into the region have proved that safe landing' areas are available at all times and under ^.11 climatic’ con ditions. Established radio stations, trading posts,' etc., already provide an important , part - of the necessary ground organization.'There is ample precedent practically to assure gov ernmental aid in the completion of the chain, I was informed, ”The longest water flight on the route, we' are informed, is but “45^ miles, a much shorter distance tl|an flown on many existing air lines. sThe proposed route is north of the dangerous fog and storm areas of the Grand Banks and Labrador area. “The total distance is claimed to be 4,400 miles on this proposed northern route, with estimated lapse flying time of 48 hours. The sav ing of around four or five days on interest in bullion shipments ovCr established, mail services, would prove of great value to banks alone?' The assurance of Canadian sup port for the new route, iMr. Howard said, was supported 'by-the resolution passed at the recent annual meeting of the Canadian Chamber of Com merce, as follows: "Resolved, that the chamber would view with favor the granting of. reasonable subsidies to approved in terests to assist in the establishing of a regular commercial air service between Canada, and Great Britain?’ Dealing-.with current business con ditions in Canada the speaker em phasized; that readjustment of price structures to (conform to lower lev els for commodities and proceeded probably further in Canada than in most countries, thus providing a sound basis tor unhindered return to normal of all’activities. The price1 re-adjustment, he pointed out, were more easily accomplished in Canada because of the greater sim plicity of the 'business organization serving 10,000,000 people compare# With 12 times that number in the. United.States. The sound; and liquid position of Canadian banks, the new capital be ing Infused, into the mining industry, the impetus given to’ the automobile manufacturing and petroleum indus tries by recent tariff revisions, as well as indication of more normal operations in fisheries, lumber, pulp, and: paper and other important Cana dian activities, Were also stressed by the speaker. .Dealing with agriculture, he ad mitted 27'5,000,000 bushel wheat ' surplus’ was a problem, tout pointed but that countries with a large per- tentage of agjricitlturai and rural population. Were invariably in a bet ter position to withstand economic depressions than the highly indus-' trialized nations. This was from the larger, number of home owners and those capable of supporting them selves and' dependents by tilling the soil. He granted, however* that the drop in value of cash crops had ser iously affected the purchasing power of Canadian agriculture and! allied activities, and had been offset' only- in part by declines in prices of the ’goods which farmers buy.

Professional Card* Jericho was the place of a curse, Zacchaeus’s business was anath ema, an accursed one to his kinsmen the Jews, And Zacchaeus was 'physically han dicapped, being ’'little of - stature,” so that he had no chance in an Orien tal crowd or- rabble to see heads of others, Yet this man of physical short of stature, rich with gains from an accused business, and living in the city’of a curse, stands out in the history of all the Bible and of all the world, as one who re ceived unspeakably .gfrejat blessing. We might, take as another Golden Text for this lesson: "But where sin abounded, grace did much, more abound.” (Rom. 5:20,) A good hymn to sing in Sunday School, after studying this lesson would be "Grace Greater Than <Our Sin.” The lesson begins with the state ment that "Jesus entered and passed through Jericjio.” Even had He not been, divine, but only an Israelite well instructed in the history of His pepple, what memories must Jericho have stirred up in the mind of our Lord. A key city of Canaan when Israel under Joshua crossed the Jor dan on dry ground’ as they left the wilderness and .the bondage of Egypt and entered the Promised ‘Land,’ Jericho confronted them aS an im pregnable walled, city, ruled over Ji'y a King and guarded, by "mighty men of valor.’’ (Joshua 6:2.) Like, all the Canaanite cities, it was a hotbed of sin and wickedness. .And God gave it over to utter destruction at the hand's of Joshua and Israel, working one of the mighty mirajcles of the Bible as the walls fell flat af ter seven days of Israel’s marching around the city. *5.The destruction of Jericho by this great miracle, accepted by Israel’s unquestioning faith in God, was a type* or sign of what* God was going to do for Israel with all the land of Canaan had they but held faithful. (The only person and family in Jer icho that were saved that day of its destruction was- Rahab’ tlie-Hiarlot 'and her people. Rahab believed in God, and befrfend'ed God's people; therefore Rahab and all her house were saved. "Grace greater than sin’’ was working even .at the time of Jericho’s destruction. And Rahab was an ancestress in. the family line of the Lord Jesus Christ Himself, who was now .pass ing through the city, a here .she alone with her family was saved. The curse pronounced; on Jericho because of what it stood for in.wick ed Canaanitish life, is- found in Josh ua 6:26, and is fulfilled in I Kings 16:34. But God can reach and save even people living in the place of a curse, if they really turn to Him in' faith. „ . - • Zacchaeus, an Israelite, had come wealthy as/a publican, or tax gatherer, which meant corruptly op pressing his own -people to secure the largest possible taxes from them for the Roman Government. Naturally lie was hated! by his fellow-Jews whom he imppverislied. But something had stirred his heart to desire to "see Jesus.” Being undersized, “he ran before, and climbed up into a sycamore tree to see Him; for He -was1 to pass that way Had! Zacchaeus heard the Lord preach and had he been touched by His burning words? We do not know. But something happened "exceeding abundantly above all" that Zacchaeus asked, or thought; tor the L(?rd stopped at that tree, looked up, .saw the little man and actually spoke to' him: "Zacchaeus, make haste and come down; for to day I must abide at thy house.” Zacchaeus lost no time in obeying, and! "received Him joyfully.” The Jews were outraged. As they saw the two go off together, the sin ner with the Saviour, they murmur ed in protest that "He was gone to be guest with a man that is a sinner? But that is the only kind of man Christ* can save; and if He were not willing) to go to be guest with sin ners, who would be Saved? ZacchaeA>, like the old-time dwell er at Jericho, Raham, proved his faith by his works (Jamds 2:2'5). Evidently he took Christ not only in to his home, but Into his heart, to abide forever, for he said: "Behold, Lord* the half of my goods I give to the poor; and if I have, taken any thing from any man by false accusa*- tion, I restore him fourfold?’ And the Lord made the wonderful de claration: "Xlifs day is salvation, come to this house,” " Was Zaeohaeus saved because he gave half of his goods to the poor* of at GLADMAN & STANBURY .
