Inc., New York and Chicago MONDAY, MARCH' 17, 1930 RIDICULOUS -- IF" IT WERE TRUE George King of Kingsville, president of the Ontario Motor League, is being much ; griticized on the ground that he is said to have stated at the Oshawa Motor Club an- nual meeting that he favored a speed limit of 70 miles an hour, Justice Raney, at the Whitby Supreme Court, branded that sug- as ridiculous, and many newspapers ve been quite blunt in thelr condemnation Had Mr, King made that statement, the griticiem would have been justified. But he did not make it. He was reported in a To- Jone newspaper as having said that, but has happened so often in the past, the Toronto newspaper has been misinformed, The editor happened to hear Mr. King's ; and he made no such suggestion, said that in his opinion the maximum limit should be abolished, and-in giv- his reasons for this opinioh, ha express. od the view that in many , there was - less danger of an accident to a driver going : am miles an hour than-to one travelling A half that speed. But that was not in. to convey that he wanted the speed limit raised to 70 miles an hour, and he did unately, the Toronto newspaper in hich the statement was published was ther widely on the matter, and, in denials of the alleged statement, Mr, been criticized where he is not de- h of criticism, It in unfair to in Mr, King's position that he should made the victim of the misunderstanding the informant of the Toronto tangis statement of that kind goes out, it is never possible to catch up PRE-ELECTION ORATORY The debate on the bill to end the ship- "ment of liquor to the United Statés, staged "in he house of Commons on Friday; pro oss speeches that were masterly in their L Aursssioey and 'presontation, duced some remarkable oratory, It was a full-dress debate, the leaders having had time to propare for it, and having in readi- 'bill, of course, was passed without a its second reading. One could it to be etherwise,. The ship- from Canada to the United 'violation of the laws of 'country, has long been a reproach t easily have been con- dly act by the United t country, apparently, was much trouble in handling law vio- thin its actual border to pay suf- to the eliminating of rum- 1 lakes, The measure is a fine : hip to the United States, will be well received, officially, in that | see the light. LN gu fight the thing through oy the same lines, "oven if It takes all summer," That is an unfortunate situation, and jt is producing effects that may be far-reach- ing, For instance, it is amazing to read "are hungrily seeking markets, ceftain Can. adian_ individuals have placed an order for 250,000 tons of coal to be supplied by So. viet Russia, My, Th , in the house of commons, an. nounced with some elation that Canada had ordered 40,000 tons of British coal," Yet here is an order of more than six times that' amount geing begging. It is. freely sug. gested that this order was given to Soviet ussin as a measure of vetaliatioh~against the aftitude of Britain in refusing to buy Canadian wheat, / That such a suggestion should even be "made is regrettable. If it is founded on fact, it is even more so, One can quite read: . lly conceive of relations between Canada and the 'mother countgy, unofficially, being strained by the situation, Canada can use British coal, and Britain needs Canada's wheat. Would it not be sensible for the parties interested in these two products, on both sides of he Atlantic, to study the posi. tion promptly but carefully, so as to prevent anything being done that will he harmful to either country. : =) A PRACTICAL EDUCATION The plan adopted three years ago by the Ontario Department of agriculture of select- ing ten boys from each county, by competi. tive effort to be the guests of the depart: ment at the Royal Winter Fair, is to be re~ péated again this year, The innovation has proven so great & success that it is quite likely to remain a permanent feature of the department's activities, In many ways, this' scheme is in itself a practical education to young farmers, In former years, the boys were chosen by com- petitions in judging seed, grain and live stock, the ten best judges in each county being the winners of the coveted awards, This year there will again be competition, but of a different kind, In addition to the judging competition, each contestant must pass a qualifying test, in which he is re- quired to submit a statement as to the cost as to show the cost of all that enters into farm production, and the is for fixing the price at which a profit is possible, This is another feature of educational value, since it will mean the training of the boys in keeping cost recor: of their work, a desirable thing in these days when busi. ness enters so much into agriculture. The visit to the Royal Winter Fair, too, is an education, since it lays before those who attend it the best produced in every fleld of agriculture in the Dominion, setting before the boys an example which they can seek to emulate as their goal in their chosen vocation, THE CHANNEL TUNNEL The 'proposal to construct a tunnel under the English Channel, linking England and France, has been declared feasible from an engineering point of view. This is interest. ing, but it will take a'great deal more than L that to have the tunnel actually built. There is, first of all, the tremendous cost of the project, placed at around $126,000, 000. Then there is the fact that. the estab- lishment of serial routes between England and France has so shortened the fime for travel between the two countries that the argument that the tunnel will effet a great saving in time is no longer valid, a a, Wo, 4 rl Taster that t very 0 ac af at the tunnel, It is known that British experts are to it on these | grounds, and that objections 'will "carry tremendous weight. So while the scheme has been declared quite feasible, it will\take more than that to set in motion the wheels that will make dream come true, EDITORIAL NOTES | 'It will sch be time for the annual clean up and paint up in the intévests of civie tremendous gathering at the. funeral The of Col ! day was a remarkable tribute to s brave and gallant gentleman, 0, States have reached a agreement, perhaps France and Italy will ; across India is not most of the natives are wondering what it is all about, In What 4 2 A ---- uf a, and those w. ulated. that at a time when the British ¢oal mines | of performing some farming operation, so [= TegaNing a dependable eye examin. at W.
