A Good Citizen Passes Ini the sudden passing of Charles H. Masoni, Bowniaîîville lias lost a citizen whose place wil bie liard to fili. Throughiout his aduit if e lie crowded more activities aind more unselfish service for the good of humanity than feil to the lot of the average main. It seemed part of lus nature to bie ever thouglit- fui of the comforts and consideration of both old anîd younig people, ta give a lift wlien it was most needed, or to do a kindly act or de'ed to bring happiness to others. Hie seemed to have a sheer ýdeliglit and satisfaction in contri'buting to the welfare of his fellow men. In doing these many acts of kindness they were doue iii lis eharacteristie modest man- ner without thouglit of publicity or reward. The numerous publie offices lie held were earried out as a trust and obligation to lis native community lie ioved so well. In any work Charlie assumed lie aluays went the second mile. Bowmanviile cau ili afford to lose sudh a mail; lis life record will stand as an exampie of worthy citizenship aiid service in the highlest sense, for service ivas flhc keynote of lis entire career. -V A Step Is Taken As soon as the neccssary facilities are available, a blood test for syphilis will bie given tü ail recruits and draftees entering the Armny; the Defence Minister made this important announcement last week. Many people will wonder why this step was flot taken at the outset of war? Three reasons have been given. The first is that the resuits of the Wasserman test are nat always reliable; for instance, a man who lias been treated with one of the suif a comn- pounds is likely to show a positive reaction ta the test, whatever lis state of heaith miay -lbe. This is a valid objection, but we under- stand that technique lias îiow been fouiid whicli eliminates some of the errors likeiy under earlier conditions. Also, the facilities for giving the test to large numbers of men have not previously -been available, but this also has been altered. Aniother reason for avoidiing tle use of the test was Iliat it diseriîinated against army and navy men as coinpared witli the rest of the population. It is clear, though, that mcen living iii close quarters are hiable to infect each other far more thani civilians. The third reason wvas that sudh a test miglit discourage recruiting. This, of course, is because for vears venereal diseases have had a nmoral signua attadhied to them., and shame concerning thcm lias outstripped eommon sense. The R.C.A.F. apparently docs not share in tlis notion, foir it lias testcd ail its recruits since thec waîr begaxi, and it has iever suffercd from shortage of îîunîi- bers. The applicationî of thc Wasserinai test to ail recruits to the services lias been a logical step for some time. At last it has been takein. _V Urge Use of English Language The Netlîeriaîîds Information Bureau, at New York, is responsibie for the statemieut that as a mieasure ta promote easier inter- course betwecnl nations and to lîeip reinove isolatioiiism, representatives of six occupied contiries o(f Euroipe arep, reparinug au ai- Beaîeit w<îi iisiîen gtiîeiî I Pitisl and Ainerjeail fies witiî thle Eiirnpean continient and tlierebv i)nsSiblv bhi(iîi () eombat lritauî 's insîlar andi Aîîueî itn~ iso nist tcndeîîcies.

Dz Capt. Eimore Philpett 1 - - - - - - - - - - - - WINGS OVER CANADA Ini proportion ta population, Canada las île argest anid besl airforce in the world. Canadians have always taken ta wimigs as ducks take ta water. There are now over 200,0010 Canadians weam- imig the airforce bineunifamms. OI these 9,500 arc womemi. TIns, Canada main- n-tains île tradi- "' ioan begun il World War I. Now that the end of the war is mare than a e- Smate possibilily; Sparhiamemitariamus m varions court- tries have ai- ready begun ta .. control of tle in- ternational a i r- - ines when tlis K wam is over - 0oW is a good time for all ini- telligent Camiaduamis ta begin ta cansîder Canada's place imi flying under peacclîme condiions. It is a foregane conclusion tIaI f or a long time ta came, Canada wili maintain a greally exparited army, navy and airforce, iher as a national institution or as a quota contribution ta an inter- national police farce. Bul this cannaI possibly provide service for more than a smalh fraction aI the Canadian mcmi and women weariug airforce blue. Moreover, il is a great mistake ta assume that amyîing but a small fraction af these people now ami actual ac- tive service, can be absorbed imta the existing commercial air ser- vices operating witlin Canada il- self. TIc amnuai report af Trans- Canada Airways, just issucd, shows that that great national ser- vice omihy emplays 1662 persans, af whom 464 are womcn. In aller words, the total stmcngth oI T.C.A. is jusl about amie per cent aI the total strengl af aur present air- force. Obvioushy, there wilhl e a great expansion af commercial air oper- ations bath for passemigers, mail and general fmeight. But as a e- cent aviation survcy slowed ini the United States, the transîer Irom the raiiways ta the airways af ahl persans who now travel by train, iller on Pullmani or first class, would keep busy only five per cent af the productive capac- ity af the cxisting plane plants in the United States. Canada attempted ami interest- ing experiment same ycars ago by breeding caIlle ta buîfaloes. The resnlting offspring, the cattalo. was lIen said ta lave lad some advamtages over bath parents fram the point aI vicw af the meat-cater. Pemhaps Canada could attempt a somewhat similar ex- periment, but aI much mare lar- rcaching importance, in the days af demobilization. Why not sel the Royal Canadian Aiforce as sncl, ta carrying pas- sengers and freight lere, tîcre, and everywhere in Canada, whcre- ever the local officiais sec a chance ta do so? Wly not aperate tîese services on precisely the same principhes as C a ni a d a's lamons bush Ilyers operated in the ycars between the wams? That is, simpiy ta charge wlatever île traffic would bear. It might le that C a n a d a wouhd discover hitherto unsuspectcd ways and means af making air services sus - tain thcmsehves. In any event there would be mia- thimig ta lose and everylhing ta gain from thc experiment. For,1 as cveryone knows, nîl the armed services, inciuding the airforce, wiii have ta be kepl in uniform for somne litltlime; and demol-1 ilization cannaI take place over- night. CROSSROADS Wlatcver happens in the inter. national scrambhe for airlanes when this war ends, Canada bas nathing ta fear if hem leaders show c o m mon sense and ordinary gumplion. There is mia country in ail thei world more stralegically situated1 ta benefil from international air traffic than Canada. Not anhy do tIc routes ta Asia and Europe lie across the flanks aI Canada. But tle short-cnt ta mnch af tle1 "heartland" af muel af tle old1 world, hiès directly over the North Pole. And, as everyone knows, Canada's narthern naundaries mun up to the pale itself. Canada has na preconceived ideas, Sa far as is known, about the future form of international air traffic. We have no one in 1Canada, carrespanding ta Clame Boothe Luce or the Duke of Sumemland, wlo itches for an in- ternational air fight for peacetime profits. Ail that Canada asks is a square deal and a common sense arrangement. Granted that, Canada can do in peace what she lias so long and so weil donc in war - taking tsecond place ta none in the sky- ways of the womld. ~In The Editor's Mail Oshawa, March 26. To the Editor: Following is a mcply to the article wmitten by Mrs. L. C. Snaw- den on Income Tax: The admirable article regarding incarne tax which appcared in your issue of March l8th wili un- daubtedly be read by aur farming friends witl many a nod af appraval. Mrs. Snowden does present a very attractive viewpoint indeed for the tiller af the soli., but with lier reasaning I cannot agree. The first conclusion drawn ini the aforemcntioned article is that the majomity af farmers are in mia position ta pay tIc incarne tax. Do thcy pay this tax? Of course miot! No complele and accurate set af books is eqired ta le kept, tIe profit Irom tle dozens af eggs sold privately is niot subjeet ta dednc- tien at île source. A farm may be campared ta an indnstry, but mia exccss profil is payable. Again, the rural dweilem las net ta pay poil and other civic taxes under which tle urbanile sqnirms. Ahh in ahi, Mm. Farmer is far fram being overbnrdcned wilh taxes. Mrs. Snowden quotes as an argument the nncertainty and risk aI bad weather and crops anid the fiekie fluctuation af the prod- uce market. Is this a valid point? What markets are sure? What business is stable? What enter- prise nit a risk? None! The farmer las no mare license ta complain af lad crops than an investor bas ta complain af a bad invesîment. Were those who lest ahlin ithîe 1929 market crash givemu tle benefit af a Moratorium Act? In contmast wiîl the far from impecumions position of the fam- mer lct us put the wage-eamner. His earnings appear in black and white on the emphoyer's ledger. Thc deductions from bis cheque are about 20 per cent. by way of tax and uncmploymenl imsurance. He will then bave, shail we say, $80 remaimiing. Next $20 for twol wceks' ent. Then $50 as a mini- mum fan food, dlles, public utilities, and sundry casts. Our opulent city mami naw has $10 ta board for lis aId age or ta "blow" ami the entertaimimemit af lis wife and twa cilidren. His homc is net lis own, lis car behomigs ta tic finance compamiy, and lis seul belongs ta his employer. This per- haps is a sordid pictume, somewlat exaggerated, but it doos put a new shant on the ural versus urban question. KENNETH HUGH. Dr. A. E.
