e, the new, regulatiOns- caane into effect
en this side, of the line,th.ere has
been a Marked decrease in car acci-
dents over Canada, as the average
driver has been content to keep well
within the la*.
But we still have speeders, thou-
sands of them, as anyone who uses
the highways daily will testify. There
may be emergencies -when a speed of
over forty miles an hour becomes a
necessity, but they are very, very
few compared with the number who .,
• wilfully disregard the speed limit.
It would 'be a good idea to pick
these speeders up and remove their
tires. Possibly: it would be the only
measure that would effectually bring
them to: reason. It would, at least,
be worth trying.
,
,Beginning To Feel It
The travelling public is, apparent-
iy„beginning to feel the pinch of the
gas and tire restrictions. Reports
• ern all over Western Ontario,point
tO the fact .that motor traffic on the
highways ebbed to a new low point
over the holiday week -end.
• Many of the main highways were
practically deserted, • although ideal
Weather conditions prevailed on all
three days. A small number of cars
bearing American licenses' were seen
in a few places, but their movement
amounted to a mere trickle compar-
ed to the numbers in evidence on
past Thanksgiving days.:
Railway and bus traffic, however,
more than made ,up for the motor
traffic Railway officials announced
the movement of holiday passengers
started on Friday and all day Satur-
day railway accommodation was
taxed to the4imit.
Bus companies also reported a
rush business, and the possibility is
that people already aware of the pos-
sibility of travel restrictions coming
into force, decided to have one last
trip.
•
There Is Something In It
• A year ago the new high school in.
Palmerston held its first commence-
ment. It was an entertainment
Which the people of Palmerston had
never seen before, and a success be-
yond all expectations.
It was, in fact, so great a success
that its second commencement to be
held in the near future, is an event
which is, apparently, being looked
forward to with -a great deal of ex-
pectation
and is already a general
topic of • conversation among the
townspeople.
In speaking of school commence-
ment exercfses, the Palmerston Ob-
server of last week says: "Three .
ideas lie behind these commencement
productions. Firgt and foremost .of
Mese is broademing ecluation.,From
these productions, students learn -
teamwork and co-operation, and
showmanship. Ask any Person who
has made an attempt to analyze
what makes success, and he or she
will tell you that co-operation with
those • abOut' you, and showmanship
are two very big factors in any life.
"The • second motive behind the
show is increased school interest.
We'Il call it advertising. Folks get '
to see a commencement who might
not otherwise set foot iia the school.
They become morefamiliar with the
school and what it offers, and to send
their children to the Palmerston high
school. Thus the school and the com-
munity benefits. ,
"At the bottdm of the list .of reas-
ons for a commencement, we find the
financial reason. The money raised
from these events, though it is not a
great deal, goes to purchasing equip-
ment for the school, equipment that
otherwise might not be obtainable.
Two instances of this are the locls-
ersjn the school at present, built by
using money from the last com-
mencement, and the • high • school
• orchestra that gained its momentum
•,:a3-4 first finances at the same time
and place."
Yes!' There is something in it. In
fact there is ,a great deal in if.

Isn't it The Truth?
The Farm Journal says: "The
modern improvements are wonder-
ful. Instead of standing on the
doorstep listening to a peddler, you
just sit down in a chair and turn on
• the radio."
Isn't it the truth? In fact, it is
the peddler that makes the radio so
unpopular with thousands of people
throughout the country.

,The Danger Of Reading
(saturdu Night)
Mr. Hepburn has been reading a
book. We have always maintained
that, this is a dangerous practice,
when indulged in too suddenly after
• a period of abstinence. It is well
known that men who have been.
starving for a considerable tine are
never Allowed to satisfytheirhun-
ger at the first meal, because the
sudden intake puts more of a strain
on the digestion than its weakened
state an stand.
"Last night," said the Premier on
Monday, to the American Federation
of Labor, "away into the small hours
of the morning as a matter of fact,.
I read a book recently written by a
very- prominent labor author of Bri-
tain, and as .a result of ;:that and of
other 'studies I have made of recent
date, my friends, I must confess that
I have arrived at the conclusion that
never again can the peace of dais
world be entrusted with internation-
al, financial, commercial cartels,
which dominated the League of Na-
tions and rendered that international
body impotent, which allowed the
Japanese to invade peaceful Man-
choukuo (Manchuria) and the boast -
Mussolini to invade defenceless
Ethiopia. Rather do I believe that
the future peace of this world is on-
ly secure in the hands, of labor and
the great masses of an organized so-
ciety.',
This is a very important 'c-onclu-
sion that Mr. Hepburn has come tel,
and we are far from wishing to per-
suade him to amend it. But we do
wish that he had arrived at it, by a
more adequate preparation: These
questions of world organization are
too large to be settled upon the
strength of a single book. There is
also the trouble that the conclusions
reached upon the perusal of a single
• book may be upset by the perusal of
another one, or even of something
less substantial than a book, such as
an article in the Globe and Mail.'
It is not so long ago that Mr. Hep-
burn, influenced by the perusal df we
know not _what, was doing things
which were certainly not calculated
to advance the cause of placing the
future peace of the world, or -any-
thing else, in the hands of labor—
• things which were calculated to
make it as difficult as the power of
the province of Ontario could make
it for.labor to organize not only for
securing the peace, of the world but
even for doing its own collective bar-
gaining._ That of course was before
Mr. Hepburn read his last -Sunday
book; but havingonce got the -habit
he ma3r read another one tomorrow
and become convinced that the peace
of the world requires the aboliti6n of
banks, or by-elections, • or of week-
ly -newspapers, or of .pOwer contracts
or of law courts—ail of -them institu-

Talk
The -loud demand of the Commun-
ists for a second front in Europe is
answered with -forceful logic by the
New York Times. It Says:
The silliest spectacle we have seen
in a long time is that. of American
Communists, who until June 22 of last
year were doing all they could do to
injure this .country's defences and
stab Britain in the back, holding a
mass meeting in. Union Square to de-
mand that the inilitary strategy of
the United NatiOns be changed to
suit the party line. Nobody listens
to them. Nobody trusts them. On
the ibasis of their record they would
hurt their own cause, even if it were
a good cause. A group at "the other
end of the - politiCal spectrunwho
would oppose a second front to suit
another party line would be' just as
•
silly and more dangerous. We do not
believe, that -there--are- in -this-coun--
try, outside of jail and not on the
run from. the Fill., enough members
of such a group to hold amass meet -
meeting in a telephone booth.
More serious IS the frank 'insistence
now being made In Moscow that a
second front 'be opened at whatever
cost: The Rusidah demands call for
plain sPeaking. We are not in thiS
war to save Russia. Russia is not in
this war to save us. She did not try
