Canada's Geography
Linked With Defence
The importance of the physical and
geographical features of Canada in the
development of natural wealth, and the
part they play in the defence of the
North American continent in case of
war, was emphasized here recently
by M. W. Maxwell, chief of develop-
ment, Canadian National Railways,
Montreal, in an address before the
Baltimore Post of the Society of Am-
erican Military Engineers.
"From a defence point of view, you
will note how North America throws
wide arms out to her northward
flanks; northwest the Aleutians stretch
a wide curving arm nearly 2,000 miles
across the North Pacific almost to
the peninsula of Kamchatka; north-
east Greenland and Iceland, now re-
garded as North American, interpose
their great bulk between us and north
Europe. But whatever path future ag-
gression of European or Asian origin
might come, or in whatever form, it
must pass these barricades," said Mr.
Maxwell.
Construction Man: Can I have the
afternoon off to go shopping with my
wife?
I Foreman: No.
C: M. Thanks.
