AWAY WITH APPEASEMENT:
The St. Theents Tianc=s-Journal, in
common With a great Malay other
newspaper's in the hlo11i1lrrioe Sad
'few thousand people of intent-
genee, is showing ccroshier:Ole die -
gust at the "Fabian" (to be Polito)
policy of Prime Minister Chamber-
lain, who, even after the awakening
of the British people to the serious-
ness of the European situation and
their readiness W back a firm
stand, is giving signs of wanting
to "appease" Hitler again, Is ho
aiming to "do another Munich,"
this time on Danzig, Rumania, Yu-
goslavia?
Says the Tuneneroulu4rt • ,'Ju
When Mr. Chaniberlain w t'• on thst
e
edge of ,completing a!strous,,peace
bloc (France, Britain, Russia) that
would be the only method Hitler
would understand, he told' Perlia-' •
ment "there are many concessions
•`which` could be made to Germany
without great difficulty if nue could
` `be quite certain that those conces-
slons would be used only for the •
purposes for which they were given;..
and not to bolster upsome strateg-
le aim."
PEN DOESN'T PAY: The Winni-
peg Free Press asks why it is that
a country this size, population al-
most, 12,000,000, can't boast at least
120 first-rate authors, one to every
100,000 Canadian people. Reason is,
of course, that an author in order
to be "first-rate" must devote his
entire time to his art, which means
the products of his pen must earn' -
him enough to live,ont 'Easier said'
than done. So much easier, in fact,
that we have only one oet, two or
three novelists' in tie' entire Dom-
inion, who are able to live solely
by their independent literary work.
PLAY IT DOWN: Although the
danger of •war in Europe and the
Far East is increasing day, by day,
we're not supposed to know it over
here in Canada. A number of the
big business houses in the Domin-
ican have come to believe that con-
tinual featuring of war -scare news
in the press and on the radio is par-
tially responsible for the slump in,
trade — that it's, well, bad for bus-
iness. It is rumored that they are
exerting pressure on the larger
newspapers, to go slow on the scare
headlines, and play' up our forth-
coming election, and such, instead.
THE WEEK'S neUEST1ON: What.
has General Franco (El Caudillo)
been 'busy dding in Spain since
the conclusion 'of the Civil War?'
,Answer: He has introduced the
corporative state to Spain, model-
ling it on Italy's Fascist one-party
system of government; he is start-
ing a new totalitarian propaganda
drive on South `_nmerica, aiming
soon to establish on this continent
units of the. Spanish Phalanx; he
has set aside a $70,000,000 subsidy
to build up a merchant fleet to "dis-
play New Spain's prestige in Amer-
ica and the Far East"; he has de -
Mobbed half the men under arms
and held a victory parade with the
Italian and Germany "volunteers"
marching in it; he has sent Loyal-
ists to concentration camps by the
tens of thousands; he has reaf-
firmed his friendship with the
Rome -Berlin axis; he has set up in
Madrid eighteen military tribunals
to try Loyalists, 688 of whom have
already been executed.

FIFTY MILLION FISH IN
ONTARIO WATERS
Fifty million young whitefish
have been deposited in the waters
of Georgian Bay and Lake Simcoe
this year by Superintendent Geo.
Andrews and his staff of the Col-
lingwood hatchery, according to
recent reports reaching this col-
umn.
The fingerlings were propagat-
ed in the Ontario hatchery. during
the winter and this spring and
early summer are being spent in
distributing the fish about in dif-
ferent areas where it is known
they will thrive. Some of the lo-
cations chosen are reported as the
Marry Ward Shoal, Nottawasaga
Bay, in the vicinity of the Chris-
tian Islands and possibly as far as
Red Rock. Lake Couchiching will
receive a'• good quantity of the
young fish. • •
Distribution was delayed more
than two weeks owing to the late
ice conditions which kept the tem-
perature of the bay waters too
low to risk the transfer from the
Collingwooal Hatchery. .This re-
cent stocking is expected to dispel
any fear of a shortage ,or disap-
pearance of whitefish in -these wa-
ters. The hatchery will now turn •
its attention to the propagation of
pickerel and some 25 million are
expected to be distributed a few
months from now.
BAGPIPES CHARM FISH
Even in fishing the old adage of
"Try, try again" is useful, but if
even this philosophy should prove
successful, pull out your bagpipes
and a tune will bring its rewards.
At least the following account
seems to prove something along
these lines.
Tom Mackay, drum major of the
Highland Pipe Band in Sydney,
Australia, claims he can charm fish
with his bagpipe, and other mem-
bers of the band back up his
boast.
When the pipers were fishing
' recently at Kildare- gone got a:
bite until Mackay strife up on
his pipes. After that, fish began
to bite readily, and within an hour
and a half the men had landed 20
fish, including one weighing 50
pounds.
Fox breeders of Chipman, N.B.,
believe that two pups in a litter
born there are platinum foxes, one
being the ordinary silver type.

Next Fall. In Schooner Will
"Discover" America Again -
-Hope to Rewrite History
Accurately
In an effort to rewrite more ac-
curately the opening chapter in
America's history, a Harvard ex-
pedition headed by Prof. Samuel
Eliot Morison. will retrace next fall
the routes followed by Christopher
Columbus during bis, voyages in
the new world, -
Feel What Columbus Felt
Sailing aboard the 140 -foot steel
schooner Capitana abo,pt August 1
from Oyster Bay, L.1., the party
will study the discoverer's nevi-
gation, seek out on the • Panama
Coast the site of the, first Euro-
pean settlement on the mainland
and view coasts and Islands as Col-
umbus saw them. They expect ,to
be gone until February 1.
. Prof. Morison explained the pur-
pose of the, voyage is to produce
"tri=dimensional . history — bringing
. to bear sight and feeling •on the -
subject, not just sitting in a lib-
rary and;,writing of it.'y He said he
felt the only way to understand
Columbus and evaluate him as a
seaman was to sail the seas he
sailed and visit the places he visit-
ed.
