The constitution of ' the new*
Indian Republic stipulates that pro-
hibition , shall come into effect.
A committee was setup last year
to •determine when and where.
Its report, if accepted by the
government, will outlaw liquor in
2% years—except for foreigners
drinking in pritrate:
Some of its recommendations:
--That all liquor advertising -be
banned after April 1, 1956e
—That an immediate ,ban be
placed on serving liquor in bars,
hotels, restaurants, - clubs and
social gatherings;
-That the plan be completely
ushered -in by April, 1958, after
which time no Indian i would have
access to liquor. •
• It is noteworthy that of the 29
States in India, 13 are already
dry.' •

Whenwird got '''around that .it was
my birthday, the whole party ol
fered ,their .ciongratulations. .The
air was deer and our view ,of the
flat Engliskiarmiand on the.banks
of the Thames was a sight we "will
long remember.
While skirting •the coast of
liol-
land we could see quite plainly the
Many miles of dykes with Aintster-
dam 10 miles to our right. Our
flight took us over Heligoland;-
tharGerman Island in the North
Sea which had been so heavily
fortified by the Kaiser Wilhelm
previous to the 'First World War:
Water ,Shortage
By the time we were approach-
ing Oslo it was, gettin• g dark and
the lights were coming on as we
flew up the coast of Norway. To
view this countrz from the air
and see the great number of lakes,
rivers and fjorde,• would lead one
to think that conservation of water
would present no probleni in that
eountry. On he contrary, as we
learned later, Norway. Sweden and
Finland 41 had the driest summer
m many years. .In fact, the plow-
ing 'fields it -Uppsala, where* the
match is to be held, have been so
dry, that had it net been for daily
artificial watering during the past
month, there would have been no
• match. •
Our plane stopped a very short
tithe ine•Oslo, and then took off for
Stockholm. There • we were • wel-
Corned, by Bengt Stengander, the re-
presentative fOr. the . World Piemielg_
Organization ' in Sweden. Mr. Sten,
gander is manager of the Swedish
plow team. .Itt 1953 lie accom-
panied the Swedish team to •Can -
Ada' and lesf. year to the match at
Killarney. Ile, at the present time,
is secretary of the:Swedish Farm
Youth. Federation. , -
'Our group was taken to the
Hotel Mailmen, a very modern hotel
built just 'four years age, which
compares favorably •with anywe
have in Canada. It did seem
strange to hear the Swedish lang-
uage When we arrived, but on the
'next day when.. the groups • from
Norway, 'Denmark, Finland, Italy,
Belgium, France, Germany, Hol-
land and the United State came.,
it, sounded ; like the United Nations.
Forestry. Exhibit
That manning , after breakfast,
Alfred Halt.secretary of the WPO
suggested we might like to see a
forestry exhibition in a park in
Stockholm. The exhibition was
held in a park of over 100 acres,
knOwn.as the Natural HistorY, Mus
eum Id Stockholm, on a mountain
high above _the 'City. the taxis
took us half way up the mountain
'side and then the rest of the way
was made on -an escalator several
hundred feet long.
T he exhibition, portraying
Swe$en"smost valuable 'natural re-
source' was .spread over - a large
area, showing the many uses for
the products of the forest, how it
can best 'be preserved *and inv,
proved.
The great hazard of forest fires
was emphasized and many types
of equipment for fighting fires were
shown.
•
It was ana interesting and in-
structive exhibition and I atm, very
sorry that..our young Canadians
haven't the Opportunity of seeing
one in our country. As a member.

On To ppsala
Th k' next ' .daY, two of the most
modern; 'buses I have ever ridden
in carried us;" out of the
Cnthe way out to Uppsala we
noticed a great .difference betWeen
the Swedish 'and. English farms.
Instead of hedged fields of green'
sod= and limey'. herds ijf'cattle and
sheep, we saw plowed fields, no
hedges or fences and -no livestock.
We were told that Owing to the
very.. dry summer there was no
grass for the 'cattle and they were
being stable .fed. Instead 'of per-
manent fences they use electric or
single ,barb ,Wire fences.
We did see a large number of
fields of rape, which is Arm an
