fort,' a word that fails to give the
true emphais. We would also add that
not once throughout„ the entire eight-
day pilgrimage 'was he word apoliticsr
heard. The men who were our busts,
were far too intensely albsorbed in
the vital task of •shanpe1jng Canada's
tools of war to worry for a moment
about politics. at was one of the last-
ing impressions of 'she trip that these
men, many of them dollar -a -year pub-
lie servants, were out to do a job
for Canada, the they were sparing
neither strength nor teletat to per-
form that service, and • than they were
admirably fitted for the. key posts
which they occupied. The same ap-
plies to the industrial leaders, the
military camp commandants, the
chiefs of tae navy and air force, with
whom we came in contact. They gave
the impression-.og being on top of
their job and tbeyinspired confidence
by their- brisk alert an confident bear-
ing. Many Canadian editors are rest-
ing more easily as a result of those
contracts.
Not a Joy -Ride
Where did we go? What did we
see? What red we learn in those eight
days? If any reader has the impression
that it was simply a joy -rude at gov-
ernment expense, we can ' only say
that it was the most strenuous joy -ride
that most of the editors had ever
experienced, From 8 a.m. until late at
night we were walking miles through
military camps, in and out of bar -
through huge munitions factories,
ranks, machine shops asd airdomes,
naval dockyards and arsenals. We
were bounced over hill and dale in
trucks, tractors, carriers, blitz 'bug-
gies and many other of those fright-
ening vehicles which form the mechan
ized and armoured army of 1941, (We
sew ,not.. -a single horse except on a
back street in Halifax and we learned
that only nine horses remain in the
Canadian arms and they are headed
for the glue factory). We were. driv-
en about in- open army trucks in
weather that penetrated to the mar-
row; we were embussed and d•ebussed
until we loathed the sight of a bus;
we were thumped by depth charges
tossed from a destroyer on the broad
Atlantic; we travelled some 3,000
miles by train and were finally dis-
embarked in Montreal en a Sunday
might in the midst of a downpour of
rain. We forgave all except the sharp
nudge of a heartless porter every
morning at 6.30 .a.m. Yes, a joy -ride
indeed!
Highlights of The Tour
In concluding this initial article.
just an outline of a few unforgettable
highlights. There was the astonishing.
demonstration; of traclred or armour-
ed fighting vehiicles and wheeled pas-
senger or load -carrying vehicles at
the General Motors proving ground
near Oshawa, featuring movement
aver the roughest ground which put
the machines to•the sternest test and
which proved convincingly that Can-
adian industrial genius is prepared
to meet challenge of mechanized war-
fare. There was the nocturnal visit
to the National Steel Car Plant at
Hamilton where several thousand
men are turning out artillery and anti-
aircraft shells, with the largestout-
put of any similar factory in the Brit-
ish Empire. There was a Sunday morn-
ing preview of the remarkable exhib-
it by the Department of Munitions
and Supply at fhe Canadian Nation-
al Exhibition, giving, a vivid portray-
al of the achievement of Canada's
war industries. At the Inglis plant in
Toronto, apart from viewing the pro-
duction of Bren machine guns in full
awing, we were addressed. by Major

Our legislative bodies would be only
too anxious fir us to give judgments
mere in keeping with the times."
Judge Jackson argued that the-i7om-
mon law is a living organism „ and
should be so treated. "We have more
or less stultibied ourselves," he went
on, by taking refuge in subtleties, sub-
terfuges and differentiations in an
attempt to render substantial justice
. . . The legislature passes an act
which is clear in its wording and in-
tention, yet by these same subtleties
we gave it an interpretation founded'
on its history... that negatates the
clear desire of parliament. Parliament
has taken over our duties as lawgiv-
ers, and we then endeavor to save our
faces, by reading into the law, by use
`of precedent, something never inend-
ed. The result is that our legislatures
look elsewhere for support for their
measures, and we find commissions
taking -our places without right of ap-
peal,
"Reasons that .induced our legislat-
ures 40 years ago to• pass statutes im-
posing limitations on the speed of
motor cars that travelled at the fur-
ious pace of 20 miles an hour and
thereby scared the populace out of
their wits have to be adapted to suit
conditions as they are to -day, and rea-
sons that induced a stern judge half
a century ago to rebuke a young maid-
en who' put a bit of powder on her
nose to take the shine off, or to casti-
gate her if .she dared smoke a cigar-,
ette, would bring a tolerant smile or
a glance of admiration from the self-
same judge today."
Judge Jackson said more scientific
methods of handling laws, particular-
ly criminal laws, are required. He call-
ed for "a reconstruction of the whole
system of the administration of jus-
tice" with emphasis on the prevention
of crime.
Would Slassify Wrongdoers
He recommended a systematic at-
tempt to classify all wrongdoers; the
establishment of Boards of doctors,
psychiatrists, judges, law-enforce-
ment officers, defenders and ciizens
to examine offenders in certain cases;
the proper treatment of offenders af-
ter they have been examined by sucs'i'
a board; the establishment of play-
grounds operated under the honor
system for juveniles to prevent delin-
;7uency and 'vocational training in
fails and penitentiaries.
In Judge Jackson's opinion too
much emphasis bas been laid on the
"first offender" and not enough on
the "repeater."
"The go -called first offender," he
said, "may have the instincts of a kil-
ler, and the repeater' may by proper
m'edidal attention and sympathetic
treatment be made a useful member
of sociey."

Hahn, who earlier in the war was
severely maligned by some sections
of the press, but whose enterprise and
ingenuity have created one of the
most integral units in •Canada's war
machine.
Tanks, Planes, Guns
On we travelled to Camp Borden
and Petawaiwa, names inseparably
linked with . the Great War, but which
.have undergone tremendous expans-
ion in the past year, where impres,
sift✓ displays of Canada's • armed
might were provided. In Montreal a
procession of Canada's new tanks
roared up and down the street in
front of the all -Canadian factory in
which they were produced, while at
the .Fairchild aircraft plant we wat-
ched huge bombers being constructed
and assembled from stare to finish.
Then there was the memonable morn-
ing at Sorel where magniicent new
25 -pounder artillery guns are being
forged and where corvettes are com-
ing eff :the stocks at a rapid clip, all
under direction of the now -famous
Somard brothers, whom we had the
privilege of meeting. On to Valcart-
ler, another name imperishably as-
sociated with the days of 1914-191S,
where we met French-Canadian offic-
er's and men and gained new insight
into the military situation in Quebec.
Then to Debert, that great new milit-
ary camp hewed from the backwoods
of Nova Scotia, final training point
for Canadian troops bound for Eng-
l•and. Lastly, Halifax, a story in itself,
where the great pulse of Canada's
war activity beats at, an accelerating
and where we rode one of the
fifth' American destroyers to sea and
dined at Admiralty House with the
Commodore and hes staff. To many
other places we journeyed, many new
acquaintances , made and stirring
stories heard. Here a man from Dun-
kirk, another from the sunken Fraser,
one who had just flown from England
or another about to board a bomber
for the Old Lands, .heroes of the
Battle of Britain and men from Lon-
don who had lived and worked through
the blitz.
In succeeding articles we still try
to tell the story of Canada's army,
navy and air force, of the turning
wheels and spinning lathes that are
writing a -new and glorious chapter
in Canada's history and whish may
revolutionize the Doneinion''s entire
future. Certain it is that since the
fall of France a little more than one
year ago, a miracle has been wrought.
While Canadians fumed impatiently,
the keen . brains of Canada's military
and industrial leaders were working
night and day to draft. the blueprint
of Canada's magnified war machine
'and to set in motion the wheels that
would make her contribution to the
Empire cause one of Which every Can-
adian may rightly be proud.
(Article No. 2 next week ' will
deal with Canada's Anmy).

LOOK OUT BELOW
The job of dropping bombs with deadly accuracy „,from dizzy
heights is a highly specialized one requiring months of training. To-
day in R.C.A.F. schools of the, British Commonwealth Air Training
Plan spotted throughout Canada thousands of keen -eyed young
men are learning to do this job and do it well. These photographs
were taken at the Bombing and Gunnery School in Jarvis, Ont-
ario. The top picture shows a Fairey Battle bomber cruising over
Lake Erie where tiny buoy targets await the eagle eye of the
Bombardier below, who is ready at the bomb sight in the belly of
the plane with his thumb tense on the bomb release.
Receives Wings
One of the largest classes at No. .1
Service Flying Training School Camp
Borden, Royal Canadian Air Force,
received their wings Saturday night.
Among the graduates was Charles
Mutoh, son of Mr. and Mrs. Fred
Mutch of town. Sgt. Pilot Mutch i s
now home on a short leave.
Charles' is the second boy from
Clinton to receive 'his wings. Sgt.
pilot T. C. Cooke, of Dauphin, Man:,
son of Mr. and Mrs. C. V. Cooke, be-
ing the first. -Clinton News Record.
Local Pilots Were Given Their Wings
On behalf of the citizens of this
community we extend congratularions
to Donald Carl Nesmith and Freder-
ick John (Ace) Bateson on their grad-
uation from No. 1 Service Flying
Training School, R.C.A.F.., Camp Bor-
den. They received their wings at an
interesting ceremofiy at Camp Borden
on Saturday evening •and were pro-
moted from leading hircraftsmen to
sergeant pilots. Don had the distinc-
tion of being tjie first in the class

Baffled but Rising
Every failure is a step to success;
every detection of what is false E-
rects us towards what is true; every
trial exhausts some tempting form of.,
error. Not only so but scarcely any
attempt is entirely a failure; scarce-
ly any heory, the result of steady
thought, is altogether false; no tempt-
ing form of error is withous some lat-
ent charm derived from truth.
