It is quite evident, according to the above Associated Press despatch, that the Allies are in dire need of the necessary cloth for the making of aeroplane wings. The Canadian. flax growers are not sub- sidized and they are willing to pay good wages for the necessary help to save the flax fibre crop. It is again predicted by the English papers to hand that the final decision of the war will come in the air. As a patriotic duty every possible assist- ance should be given to have' the flax pulled at the right time.
