Whether_ this ;frill be • re- peated this War or not is in doubt, but the Town of Goderich is certainlyaiming high. -They want a, warsh l? to rest in -their harbor as a souvenir of the war, and the Board of Trade there is angling with the Federal, authorities for the minesweeper "Goderich,"— ,Hanover Goderich,"--•IIaanover Post. • Our Hanover friend has been misled by an inaccurate report of the action of the Goderich Board of Trade. The Board 'is not asking for a war "souvenir." It wants to have the minesweeper put to use instead of being' many- a '' as of the , e d y aw stowed . smaller vessels probably will 'be, in some backwater' where it would event- ually go to `pieces. Sea Cadets from various inland point's have been conning to Goderich, the last few summers for training on yachts placed at the" dis- posal of the Government by their. owners. Now that the war is over the owners will want to use these yachts themselves, ,nand what would be more fitting than. that the ship named for this town should be commissioned for training purposes here? .There has been some talk of the , establishing on • the•=Cauadian side of the Great Lakes of a peacetime coast° guard such as operates from United States' ports for .the protection of life and property. Just a .few days ago. the following despatcl from the capital appeared in. the -press : OTTAWA, Sept. 5. (CP) — Capital circles today discussed the possibility of the e$ ansion, of the R•G,M,P, marine and air sections to take in crews and equipment ' from the navy and air force. and develop a strong coast guard type of service on both coasts- and. in the Great Slakes.

The idea that -the sugar refiners are making an artificial scarcity,. deliberately reducing the volume of their own. business, is too ridiculous , for serious counnent. The shortage is bad enough without any encouragement of the sugglistion that it is being imposed upon the people. by artificial means.
