Eden Declares Italy's African Empire Lost Foreign Secretary Eden told the House of Commons last week the British government is opposed to the return of colonies to Italy, and declared the government would stick to its declaration that Italy's empire in Africa is irrevocably lost. Spain has assured Great Britain that she will not provide asylum for war criminals, Mr. Eden declared. He said the British ambassador in Madrid has received assurances to this effect, as did the American ambassador. WHAT SCIENCE IS DOING A1IJ'lastic Tires Development of the first 'heat - tempered" all -plastic tire --a step that eventually may greatly increase tire life—was announced recently by VV, H. Ftusston, President of The Firestone Tire and Rubber Company of Canada Limited. The development is considered of ma- jor importance because the .tire is designed to whip the number one enemy of long wear—heat. Whether the all -plastic oval ultim- ately will compete with its rubber colleague will not be known until the company completes the 'current ,;.laboratory examination and the gruelling road tests to which the new tire will be subjected. Experts 'agree that heat causes most tire failures and that great mileage could be rolled up if the problem were licked. Taking a long step toward achieving this goal, Firestone engineers built the all - plastic to run cooler than today's tires and to withstand twice the heat a natural rubber tire develops at high speeds. The Firestone a41 -plastic tire, which looks so much like a rubber tire that only an expert could tell the difference, does not crack or check in the sunlight and, unlike rubber tires, it is not soluble in gasoline or oil. How soon all -plastic tires, if they live up to expectations, will be available for civilian use is uncer- tain because all tire manufacturing facilities now are devoted to build- ing military and essential civilian tires. Radio waves travel at the ap- proximate rate of 186,300 miles a second. CANADA'S LARGEST Biggest warships built in Canada are the new transport ferries which the Dominion is turning out for the Royal Navy. Above, the first of the large vessels to slide down the launchways. Her hull, built in record time by Canadian Vickers Limited, Montreal, is the first of this particular type in the world. These transport ferries which are being built in several yards along the St. Lawrence and on the West Coast, form part of the huge flotilla of ships designed for amphibious operations. Mephitis Is Good Friend Of Farmer The skunk isn't at all a bad chap to know, comments The New York Times. His reputation, based on smell, does not do hint justice. Anyone who has seen a mother skunk lead her brood of little ones in single file across a lawn at dusk, each tiny fellow with his tail held aloft like a banner, has seen one of the most appealing sights in Nature's museum... He is a good friend of the far- mer in spite of an occasional foray on the chicken coop. He eats tre- mendous quantities of 'lay beetles and their grubs; he consumes many field mice which eat the bark of trees, the heads of timothy and the grains of oats, wheat and buck- wheat. Repeated surveys by biolo- gists have proved that 'Stripe Suit' more than earns his way... When the time , of cold arrives, he goes into semi -hibernation in a rabbit or wood -chuck hole, beneath an old building, or occasionally digs his own burrow. The country- man has a folklore saying that if skunks cone around the farm buildings in numbers during the fall, it means a long, hard winter. Mephitis has a drawback in polite society, but he sets a good example i». sobriety of action, and tends strictly to his own affairs if the world leaves hint alone, Small Business Important In Securing Peace "It is the small units of free enterprise, rather than government or big business that will secure our peace for us," stated Carle C. Conway, president of Continental Can Co., Inc., New York City, in a speech prepared for delivery to the Canadian Credit Institute. "In business as well as in diplom- acy," continued Mr. Conway, "the peace will prosper and prevail only when the people as a whole have confidence in what it stands for, and are willing to put their shoulders to the wheel to make it work. Peace is not a passive thing. It demands as much unity of purpose, as much forthright pat- riotism, as does the winning of a war" Mr. Conway urged reduction in depressive limitations on incentive earnings, whether of workers, man- agers or owners. Nothing, he main- tained, must stand in the way of efficiency, lower costs and greater earnings for all. For after all, he contended, efficiency lowers costs —lowers prices enabling more people to buy more things, "which is the only way to increase the standard of living."—The Finan- cia Post.

More Good Advice About Loaded Guns In our estimation, (Trenton Cou- rier -Advocate), and we have hand- led all sorts of guns under different circumstances and not always in familiar haunts, we would say that every last accident with a gun in .which some person is killed or in- jured, is'he result of carelessness. It is t?;nsafe to be travelling around With a loaded gun in your car. ] esides it is illegal. The same Jaw,.,does •not hold for a boat or a canoe but there should be a law. No person should get into a boat with a loaded gun in his hand, .and no person should leave a boat with- out Unloading his gun. • There are many things to think about when handling guns, either loaded or unloaded, and chief among them is never to point a gun , at anybody, Never pick up a gun by the muzzle and never drag it through a fence by the danger end.
