HIT -RUNNERS IN 1888
Our sentimental fondness for
"the good old times"—currently
referred to as "the horse and
buggy days"—received something
of a shock when we read the sub-
joined new item in the "50
Years Ago" column on this page
on Wednesday: "A man and wom-
an driving on Ontario street ran
over a child causing serious in-
jury, The couple drove right on
without stopping to enquire what
the injuries were." Evidently hu-
man nature hasn't changed with
the years. There were odd biaek
peas in the pod in 1888, just as
there are in 1938—and doubtless

A ROYAL VISIT: It is some-
thing to be thrilled about that the
King and Queen are coming to
Canada next year. Something
that has never happened before
in our lifetime.
A marvellous gesture of good
feeling between Great Britain and
the United States will be their
visit to President Roosevelt. In-
cidentally it will give the Euro-
pean dictators ample food for re-
flertion.
Only one thing about their trip
to Canada that disappoints us —
they are not bringing the little
princesses with them.

DAYLIGHT
o—DAYLIGHT SAVING: We're
back at it again. Daylight saving
and the Canadian farmer. A cou-
ple of weeks ago in this column
we asked to be enlightened. Why
don't farmers want daylight sav-
ing?
Here are two suggestions that
have come in. Firstly, a farmer
must wait till the dew has dried
each day before he can go to
work on the land—if he gets up
by daylight time, it means he has.
an extra hour to put in, waiting
for the fields to dry. Secondly,
since the farmer works by the sun,
he finishes his chores by the sun,
doesn't get into town to do his
shopping till they are done (in-
advertent rhyme). If the town is
running on daylight saving, Mr.
Farmer then arrives to make his
purchases just as the stores are
being locked up for the night,
Very interesting arguments,
those. But we still wonder how
the entire continent of Europe
can go on Summer Time for six
months every year, and never a
sqawk from anybody!

MORE BLACKMAIL: Great
Britain doesn't like Hitler's sug-
gestion that she limit her air force
to one-third the size of Germany's.
Can't blame her for not liking it,
but what can she do about it?
.Turn Hitler down flat?
It must be remembered that
Great Britain in 1935 asked Ger-
many to limit her navy to one-
third the sitz of the British, and
was accepted. If Britain now re-
fuses to accept a percentage limi-
tation in the field of air arma-
ments, German denunciation of
the 1935 naval treaty would be an
unpleasant consequence. And the
British Government heads know
it. Germany could begin at once
building new types of ships which
would render whole sections of the
British Navy obsolete.

10,000 "VOLUNTEERS": Con-
siderable cause for rejoicing was
felt in some quarters over the
withdrawal by Mussolini last
month of 10,000 "volunteers"
from. Spain. It was hailed as a
peace move of the first magnitude.
Not taken into account was the
number of Italian "volunteers"
still left in Spain (some say it
touches 80,000). Again, who were
the 10,000? The wounded, the in -

THE WEEK'S QUESTION:
What is the "Rosenberg Plan,"
and why is Europe afraid of it?
Answer: It is a plan of cam-
paign followed by Germany
which calls for the Hitlerization
of the Continent, the formation
of a Nazi "Continental Empire"
of 100,000,000 people. The plan
prescribes the liquidation of
Switzerland, the seizure of Silesia,
the disintegration of Belgium,
the incorporation of Scandinavia
within the "Empire." It claims the
Baltic States, Flanders and Lor-
raine for Germany. United, this
empire (according to the plan)
will proceed to its second task—
the conquest of Russia and the
road to Asia.
Prisoners Try
"Noise Strike'
Three transients have found
out that a jail isn't the place
to create a disturbance.
Awaiting the arrival of
Magistrate J. 13. Hopkins, a
trio in Fort Erie, Ont., start-
ed a "noise strike" and they
banged their steel cots with
such terrific force against the
bars, ceiling and floor that
residents and merchants re-
siding in the vicinity of the
jail complained.
One man was sentenced to
a total of four months, while
the two Hamilton youths re-
ceived three months each.
