Editor. D)urham County Club of Toronto Promotes Canadian Spirit The editor hias received froni a nieniber of the Durham County Club of Toronto a letter which outlines the inspirational valute of the Club and suggests publicity ii The Statesmian for the opening fail programme. We are hapPY to give in another column a summirary cof the first meeting to be held Oct. '24th. 1946. and to enlarge upon some of the cortinent.s of the writer. Ever since the Durham County Club was formed many years ago. The Statesman, adhering to its policy of community service. has carried ail news available on the Club's activit- les. Each week a full mail bag of Statesmnans goes to, subscribers in Toronto who were born in Durham County and seek permanentlY to preserve home town ties. Our correspondent, touching on the value of the Club, observes that it inspires a love of our home, our birthplace, our early residence, everything that strengthens local attachments. It has far-reaching effect on the formation of individual and national character. The instinc- tive fondness*for the place where we were born serves to make us better citizens in place of our adopted residence. We become better Canad- ians. It brings together old acquaintances, forms new ones. Its programmes are cultural, providmng entertaînment and enlightenment. It is an inspirational, cohesive unit that has all the elements of the unity se greatly needed in this young and growing nation. This is the broad view with which we heartily agree. This Durham County Club is characteristic of the Canadian spirit found in the Canadian Club of New York and other centres in the U.S.A. The wholesome spirit of patriot- ism and freedomn displayed in gatherings of this kind is something to be fostered and extended. The Statesmnan is glad to continue its support and encouragement of the Durham County Club and to add this footnote: Membership is open to ail former residents and present residents of Durham County and their families., The story of the opening programmne of the season also gives the name of the Secretary. Why not plan to join the Club and participate in happy winter gatherings? importance of National Unity Theme of Weekly Newspapers Members of the Bowmanville Rotary Club were given a real insight into the prime factor necessary in the fulfilment of Canada's destiny amnong the leading nations of the world, when Dr. Hugh Templin, editor of the Fergus News- Record sppke of his wartime experience abroad and his extensive travels across Canada as an executive with the President of the Canadian Weekly Newspapers Association. The central theme of Dr. Templin's message was "National Unîty." He urged individual thought and act- ion in resolving sectional and racial differences of a "Inew world order." To set our own house in order would appear a prerequisite to world order. Rural editors feel they are on the right track on this question and still pursue their objective. Editorials in weeklies continue prac- ticaily te promete national unity and leading editors in the weekly field project their view in frequent public addresses., Th is is why we direct partîcular attention to the very notable and inspiring message delivered by Dr. Hugh Templin at Bowmanville last Friday. It key- notes the growing influence of the weekly press in our national life. Gcttiflg the Facts on the Milk SupplyQuestion The Ontario government has set up a Royal Commission te enquire inte "the producing, processing, distributing, transporting and mar- keting of miik' with a view to determining a fair price to the consumer based upon a just return to the producer and reasonable costs for distribution. 0f the three interests mnvolved, farMer, distributors and conswners, the farm- qpir* who produce the miik are most vitally in- 'tdfor they are on the defensive in a ilw'ocorieedargument. The offensive was l14n Iy onsumners foilowing withdrawal of dofftiiiniiulmidies and the return of authority on ilti queetion to provincial milk boards. We haesp;%cç' enly te give a few highiights of Wli':i Ottawa lifted the consumer subsidy ffit, houisewife hiad to dig up two cents more qu' i~art. Whcen Ottawa withdrew the 55c per cwvctiti whole niilk, the milk boards had to de- vise sorte sort cf equity for production and con-' .sumervs lad te dig up three cents more. Con- sumner protest., pitchforked unpasteurized pel- iticiatis <to the inilk can. City mayors, elected tin consumter vote passed the bail te provincial legsituesaise concernied with consumer votes. Ilence the Royal Commission which begins a task that has defied experts for years, te learn the net cost of producing a quart cf miik. The consumer's position is defined. A quart cf miilk delivered is 15c but toc few realize that to enjoy the iuxury 'of deiivery alone cests three cents. Consumers are also responsibie foi, a tremendous less, in empty bottles and in mian cases, unpaid billis. Hence they are them- selves responsible for unnecessary expense. The distributor's costs aise can be pretty well de- f ined. The Commnission won't have much trouble in reaching findings in these respects. But when it comes te farmers the intangibles complicate the picture. Getting down te unit costs involves a maze cf calculations involving weather, disease in herds, wages for f arm fam- ilies, upkeep, insurance and se forth, that would tax the science cf. accounting ever a long perîod cf time. Producer associations must be on the ,alert and present a case of greatest finality possible. The Nuremburg Trials and The "'Armour of God"l Readers will recaîl a wartime admonition of our Prime Minister, that we should "put on the whole armour cf God.'" It may occur te some this week when leading figures of the Nazis were hanged by the neck until dead for crimes against humanity. In May, 1945, four great nations set up a tribunal before which these men might show reasons why they shculd net pay for the consequences cf their actions. Years may pass before ahl the implications of their trials will be understcod. New judgment has been fulfilled we shail hear reactienary cries: "A display cf vengeance; primitive acts cf the victor; against principles cf justice te try men under ex-post-facto-laws - laws passed after the acts have been committed." We have heard, for instance, from Senator Taft qf the U.S.A. We have aise heard from Justice Robert Jackson of the U.S.A., before the trial: "The rule cf law in the world, flouted by the law- lessness of these men, had te be restored at the cost te my country cf over a million casualties, net te mention those cf other nations. I can- net subscribe te the perverted reasoning that scciety may advance and strengthen the rule cf law by the expenditure cf morally innocent lives but that progress in the law may neyer be made at the price cf morally guiity lives.' We suggest reading Jackson's great exposition, "The Case Against the Nazi War Criminals." These men paid at Nuremburg the penaltyfor crimes cf great magnitude, terrible conse- quences. The principles upheld at their trial light the way toward the time when any abuse of power and trust, the essence cf their crime, shaîl be perceived, prevented, punished, even at inception, and in themselves se soon as the design becomes apparent. Statesmen now have been and will be held responsible to moral law and in effect have been told te "Put on the whole Armour cf God." We have broken a bond cf the past; have taken a new path which we have known it was ours te take when we had courage te take.it. Religious Intolerance Meanest Crime in liuman Affairs against inhuman treatment. He upheld the Canon Law against foeed conversion cf orth- odox Christians te the Cathelic faith, which was one cf the false charges laid against him. In danger of his life during the long months cf enemy occupation, he sccrned personal safety' only te fail at last under iron hands foleowing the defeat cf the Nazis. His fight against the Nazis was the same fight as these who now condemn him. What was the reason? With equal fearlessness he stood against atheistic communism which aims at destruction cf all Christian faith. He defended compatriots' accused cf being Communists. That was the soie cause cf all the trumped.up charges, under which he knew he was te be convicted in advance. At his trial he declared: "My con- science is clear; when there is peace, when freedom returns, there wili be none te say a word against my Archbishopric." The chapter is net cldsed. His prcphetic words ring true in history. Intoierance, whether it be that cf Dr. Shields or atheitic communists, must be purged from human experience. Persecution of Archbishop Stepinac will hasten the day of destruction of the forces of darkness. Newtonvle Mrs. J. Paeden, Newtonvîlle, re- turned home Saturday after vis- iting relatives in Kendal.
