Quot- ing the Rt. Hon. Arthur Meighen, the speaker said "Civilization must end war, or war will end civilization. War was .no longer effective in settling world | disputes, Rev. Mr. Cragg declared. Early wars may have had some bearing upon the history of the world, but the wars of the last fifty years had had very little per- manent effect. He mentioned the Franco-Prussian war, the war be- tween Italy and Turkey, 'and the Balkan wars as cases in point, and declared that Germany, the nation supposedly vanquished in the Jast great war, was today in the most prosperous condition and had the largest. potential fighting force of any gountry in Europe. Wars Ineffective "Wars that scttle no problems or differences are ineffective, and there is only one real Solution for the | world's difficulties. That is in peace,' | he said, There were many signs | that the nations were beginning to | seek peace. The women of the world over were linked together. in opposi- i tion to war: the great youth move- ment opposed war; the churches were nearly all pledged to peace; and the League of Nations was working for peace. "But, if we attain this peace, what kind is it to be," the speaker inquir- ed. It must be a ~eace with honor, and it must be based on righteous fiess, he said. Tt was no good to have a make-believe peace that was just a compromise, but it must real- ly 'settle some of the most pressing differences amorigthe nations. Final- and declared ly, it must be the peace of God and bring forth fruits of righteousness, for otherwise it could not last, ------------------------ ALBERT NORTHCOTT DIES OF INJURIES (Continued from page 1) nection a most complete machine shop.

Iron and Steel: Continues at pre-- vious levels with no sign of basic improvement. Foreign Trade: Wheat exports compare well with 1930; other lin- es remain inactive.

Employment: No = substantia! change evident though early spring has beneficial effect, Stock Markets: Lower prices fail to bring undue signs of weakness; undertone. reasonably. strong. it: Seasonal demand fails to titude is cautious. Week's Highlight: Retail trade reported fair with industrial active ity culturalists. INDUSTRIAL LEADERS WAIT FOR LEADERSHIP ON WAGES While few are preparend to ad- mit that wage reductions are "just around the corner" in Canada, busi- ness men and employers interview- ed by The Financial Post recently are nevertheles keenly interested in the all-important question of wage rates and are looking eagerly to various sources for information and guidance in this most important problem. that in his opinion employers were more than ever before anxious to avoid anything like an open break with employees on the wage ques- tion and that wage reduction in Canada would, he thought, only be experienced after other nations had led the way. He felt that short hours and unemployment had already caused considerable unrest among employees in many lines of industry and that any hint of wage reduc- hostility, He expressed the hope that the policy at present extant in the construction industry whereby the unions were openly : allowing members to accept work at below union rates, rather than go unem- ployed, might spread into other in- dustries and that in this way con- | siderable progress might be made toward the goal of lower wage costs, without stirring up friction between employers and employed. OREDIT CONDITIONS EASY, BANKING ANALYSIS SHOWS Credit conditions are phenomen- ally easy for this time of year, ac- cording to The Financial Post index of credit, which is the ratio of cur- rent and call loans in Canada to de- mand and notice deposits in Cane ada. The index dropped to 65.8 per cent in February as compared with 67.1 per cent the previous month and 77 per cent a year ago. This fs the first year since this record has been compiled that a marked daeline in credit has occurred in the early months of the year, the nor- mal trend in Canada being either decidedly firm or upward at this period. VICTORY BOND HOLDERS MAY GET EXCHANGE OFFER Bond refunding operations of the Federal Government this year. will take the form of an exchange of securities and there will be no pub. lie offering of new bonds in the general accepted sense of the term, it is forecast by The Financial Post. No details are available as to the terms of the offering which will be made to present bondholders. There is reason for believing that the basis of exchange will be sufficient. ly attractive as to result in the ex- change of all or the major part of the issues with the maturities ex- tending beyond this year and up to and including 1924. The latter bonds, of course, are non-callable before their muturity date and the exchange could only bLe effected through the extension of liberal terms, There has been talk in invest- ment circles over the possibility of Dominion Government issuing a 4 percent, non-callable bond, similar to that issued by the British Gov- ernment and familiarly known as '"consols," Further, it has been ru- mored that banking institutions and insurance companies would be obli- gated to subscribe for a minimum amount. As far as can be learned, there is no intention of adopting this policy. In the first place, such a move would meet with considerable op- |pesition from financial interests be- cause of the tying up of credit. There are a number of other finan- cial and technical difficulties in the way and it is believed that the Gov- ernment will adopt the plan of ar- ranging for an exchange of securi- ties, rather than issuing "consols." By this means--if the terms are sufficiently attractive to make the exchange successful--the Govern- ment's refunding operations could be carriéd out on a relatively low- cost basis and would not disturb the market.
