Canada Should Open Her Doors to Etirope 's Unfortunates, Says Rev. R. R. Turnbull "Canada's „Asset in the Refugee" waS the theme of Rey. R. H, Turnbull's evening sermon at North street United church last Sunday. Basing his marks upon a. well-known Bible storY, he showed how JoSeph VMS ill-treated and persecuted by his jealous brethren and eventually through force of (fir- eumstances NiatS driven to seek refuge in Egypt. There through his ability and insight he was raised to the high position of prime minister in Pharaoh's empire. In this- capacity he evolved an economic program that proved of in- estimable value in solvtog Egypt's famine ,problem. Here was a- refugee who came to- Egypt penniless but be- cause of his ability proved an invalu- able asset to the land of his .adoption. This, the minister said, is the story of the refugees down through the centuries. They are 'people who mani- fest superior skill or intellectual ahility and 'through jealousy are driven to other lands where their knowledge anti 'experience and 'fine craftmauhip con- tribute -to the growth and. progress Of the new land. Britain's greatness, continued the preacher, is due. in larde part to the° policy of goodwill and generosity that she has t practised toward perseeuted Peeples down through the ages. She owes Ilea? rich textile industry „to the Flemish weavers who fled' from 'the 'Low Countries because of persecution. In the days of. queen Elizabeth there was another, period of religious perse- cution -on the Continent -itidd-a, Sub -- Some of these were' silk weavers, ware, and artisaits','''Ars' ninny 'other trades. It was in la -life -part these! refugees with their special knowledge an'd skill... that transformed Britain from An agricultural coultry to the great industrial nation'• she is today.
