Possibly forecasting the Opposl- tion lineup in the coming session of parliament The Dally Herald adds: "Only on one condition fs it conceivable that general con- sent could he secured for aboll- tion. . The weaker powers would probably be willing to forego the use of submarines if their ecom- merce were freed from the menace of the cruisers of the stronger powers,' The evolution of opinion on this subject here is further indicated in the comment of the Conserva- tive tabloid Dally Sketch which editorially will throw out the sug- gestion that this country and the United States agree mot to use submarines against each other's merchant ships and furthermore that they agree to consider it un act of war against both if any other power so uses submarines against either's shipping. $70 PER HEAD SPENT ~ BY CANADA IN U, 8, Ottawa, Feb. 9.~Official figures dealing: with the trade of Canada for the year 1927 show that more than $70 per head of the Jopulation of Canada was spent in the United States, Canada bought goods from the United States in 1927 to the value of $707,270444, of $466,884,511 more than the total purchases by Canada in the whole of the British Fmpire.

When I entered the schoolroom & class of rvosy-cheeked boys and girls stood up and chorused a shrill "Good Morning, sir," Then they immediately returned to their copy books, There was mo simu- lated 'best behavior," mo sidelong glances, no sniggers. It was just the innate breeding of English boys and girls, fostered by the fdealism of thelr headmaster, O, B, Allerton, These boys and girle of Barnack---sons and daughters, for the most part, of agricultural workers--are being taught the code of honor, as well as the rudi- ments of the three Rs, Mr, Allerton has been encour- aged in his work by an ex-Barnack schoolboy, R.

In addition each boy and girl re- ceives a new penny, "We make no claim to turn out prodigies of politeness," sald Mr, Allerton.

L. C, M. 8. Amery, Secretary of State for the DNo- minions, during his recent tour of Canada: The Empire Marketing Board was appointed in the early sum- mer of 1926, upon the recommen- dation of the Imperial Economie Committee--a body which is re- sponsible to all the Governments of the Empive. Its Chairman was to he theSecretary of State for Dominion Affairs, Its membership, though limited for the sake of ef- ficiency, left no part of the Bm- pire unrepresented. The British Government had placed at its Chairman's disposal a sum of £500,000 for the remainder of the financial year of its appointment, and had promised £1,000,000 a year for the future, The Parlia- mentary+«vote, from which its funds were derived, indicated only that they were to be devoted to *fur- thering the marketing of Empire produce In this country." The Imperial Economic Committee, recognizing that the Home Coun- try was not less a part of the Em- pire than the Dominions and Col- onles, had announced the unanimn ons view of both Its home and oversea members that the policy of the Board should he to encour- age the public to ask for the pro- duce of their own country, and next for the produce of the Empire overseas. The Imperial Economie Com- mittee had foreseen that the mar- keting of Empire produce was not merely a question of publicity. They had recommended that a sub- stantial part of the revenues of j the new hody should be devoted to scientific research. The Em- pire Marketing Board, fortunately, hegan by seeking to view its op- portunity through the eyes of its parent body. Meeting regularly week after week throughout the summer of 1926, it realized more clearly at every mreeting how un- expectedly large and diversified that opportunity was, and yet how | fundamentally the stimulation of Empire marketing must depend 'jon the private enterprise of pro- ducers and traders. It would have heen easy for the Board to have shown a prompter activity by em- barking upon an intensive cam- paign of advertisement--urgng {the publie to buy Empire produce, hut perlecting its quantities and 'ts quality, That first summer, however, showed, and every sue- ceeding month has endorsed the lesson, that the "furthering of the marketing of Empire produce in this country" is not merely an affair of the newspaper, the hoard- ing and the platform. It stretches back through retail shops and merchant houses, through cold | "tores and the holds of steamers | to the di-tapt barbors and rafl- | ways and packing sheds, and the vet more distant farms, where is | transacted, no less than across the retailer's counter, the ecomplicat- ed business of Empire development and supply, - Thus viewed, the work of the Empire Marketing Board includes, indeed, the active advertisement in this country of Empire produce from home and overseas. Maay Empire products are ripe for ad: vertisement, and their producers need the encouragement which ad- vertisement can give; but such publicity should be regarded as the last stage only in a sustained attempt to promote the organiza- tion of Empire production and Empire marketing. The reports of the Imperial Eco- nomie Committee on fruit, meat and dairy produce have comstitut- ed the starting point for most of the Board's work in the economic field. Work recently started by the Ministry of Agriculture and Fisheries in England and Wales was felt to justify a substantial and continuing grant for its ex- tension, An essential feature of the Ministry's scheme is the actual demonstration of improved meth- ods of marketing, packing, grad- ing, ete, A preliminary experi- ment in this direction was made at the Midland Poultry Show at Birmingham, in November, when a large egg and poultry exhibit was shown. This display proved successful and attracted much at- tention, Arrangements are being made to repeat it at a number of agricultural shows, and also to provide similar demonstrations In regard to pigs and fruit. Fromy the same grant a contri. bution has been made by the Min- istry to the Cheshire Cheese Fed- eration, with the object of en- abling the Federation to bring in- to operation proposals for stan. dardizing Cheshire Cheese, includ. ing the use of a trade mark. As- sistance has likewise been given to the National Farmers' Union to improve the marketing of live- stock in areas affected with foot and mouth disease. The Board appointed In Janu- ary, 1927, a special officer to sunt and report to them upon the openings for useful publicity of- fered by Empire Shopping Weess of which a number had previous- ly been held in different parts of the country. This officer's report seemed clearly to show that Em- pire Shopping Weeks are a strik- ing apd relatively - inexpensve form of advertisement open to Empire goods and not availahle to their competitors. The Board, therefore, decided to give active assistance to Empire Shopping Weeks, provided that their or- ranization was non-party, and was thoroughly representative of the district in which they were to be held.
