One has to mingle with these people in thelr leisure hours to fully realize this, for it is trde that the Ukrainians are a cultured people, with an appreciation of musle, poetry and the arts that ean hardly be equalled by any of the other racial groups Which go to make up the population of Can This was very apparent on Sunday night, when the St. George's Ukrainian Hall was crowded to capacity, People of all walks of life were there from the Ukrainian colony. And the occasion was a celebration in honor of Shevchenko, the national poet of the Uk ane. One can hardly imagine a great au- dience of working men of other nationality _ gathering to do honor to the memory of a "poet. Even the Scottish bard, Burns, hone ored as is his memory, could hardly draw forth a similar tribute as that paid-to Shev- chenko by these Ukrainian workmen and thelr families, It was evidence of the depth of the cultural life of the people, of a love "of poetic expression and music that is rarely found in She worling Slassap. etatands Subsly pov o with so deép an unders win af cul ulture have a great place in the life Canada.

Owners private stations, na- turally, are nearly all opposed to if. They claim that under private auspices thare has been a splendid development of radio proe grams In this country, and that there is nothing the government could do that is not now being done in the way of providing Canadian programs. of exceptional merit. This is very true of the larger Canadian radio stations, for through the sponsorship of programs by large commercial concerns, the greatest Canadian artistes are making their talents available for radio listeners, The strongest argumcut against govern. ment control of broadcasting lied in the at. titude of the radio listeners. 'Unless the lis. tenors can be confrolled, there is little use controlling the programs, because listeners will still be able to tune in on United States programs to their hearts' content, no matter what the government might seek to do in monopolizing broadcasting in Canada. If lis- toners have become attached to certain United States programs, they will continue to listen to them, and government broad- casting will not change human nature. From that standpoint, it might well be said that the government would be wasting money in spending millions in taking over the radio broadcasting systems of Canada, when there is no guarantee that they will serve thelr purposes any better than under , private ownership. THEY'LL'LEARN A LOT It is announced that a party of sixty-five editors and executives of United States farm magazines, with their wives, will visit Northern Ontario in June of this year. This is going te be a wonderful trip for these people, If their ideas of the Canadian north are usual conventional ideas of the \ average citizen of the United States, they are going to have their eyes opened. They will find no "lady of the snows," but will find a rich and verdant country, with agri- culture and mining flourishing 'almost side by side, and a country from which they will carry home many striking recollections. It will be a good thing to have this party of editors visiting the north, Editors, as a rule; like to write about the new places théy Juve seen, and the new knowledge they fred. Thus they help to add to of human knowledge of the world. Soy bn these fellows go home after their trip, they will surely have the urge to sit down at thelr typewriters and tell their readers ahout the wonders of Northern On. tario.
