victory the invasion on tho european west coast went better than anyone had a right to expect it has been officially reported that casualties were much lighter than anticipated a foothold had been gained on a long stretch of the french coast between cherbourg and lc havre and the first stage or the liberation of the continent has been successfully accomplished but tho fact tho invasion at the start went better than expected has one disadvantage there may be a tendency in some quarters to accept it as an indic ation that the defeat of germany is going to be easy that tho war may end soon it should be emphasized as leaders of tho united nations have emphasized many times in recent days that the present is no timo to relax the job of crush ing germany and her european satellites has barely begun and after that job is completed there still is japan to deal with and japan is a dangerous en emy take a look at tho map of europe in the south west comer spain and portugal are neutral tho allies hold a narrow strip along tho french coast sweden and switzerland aro neutral the allies havo liberated southern italy russia has hammered a bulge into eastern romania and poland the rest of europo is germanheld the war in italy has become more or less second ary news sinco the invasion from tho west began but the length of time it took to liberate the south ern section of the italian peninsula should be re membered the area freed is only a drop in the buck et a whole continent virtually must be overrun by the united nations before the war in europo ends the men who should know what lies ahead are men like prime minister churchill president roose velt prime minister mackenzie king their words should carry weight in any estimation of tho war prospects remember them when anyone argues tho war in europe may be easy mr churchill the battle which has now begun will grow constantly in scale and in intensity for many weeks io come mr roosevelt let our hearts bo stout to wait out the long travail mr king the fighting is certain to bo bitter and costly we must not expect early results we should be prepared for local reverses as well as our successes t v many hands needed with prospects of a bumper crop on the farms in this district it is well that attention at the moment is being focused on plans to harvest the crop and do other work essential to securing full advantage of the bounty of providence victory garden are es sential and are filling an important part if you have a victory garden you will appreciate what a seasonal job the farmer has from seed time to harvest there is little time for relaxation and on- canadian weather makes it imperative that not a moment be lost in this period farmers cannot maintain a staff the year round to look after this peak season and sell foodstuffs at present levels under ordinary conditions a surplus of laboi takes care of this peak season in the present emer gency we all know that there is no labor surplus that is why it is important that everyone who can spare an evening or a holiday or any time can lend a hand in the farming district and should register now the past few seasons have witnessed good work done by these volunteers the need today is more urgent than ever plan to lend a hand on the farm this season many hands make light work runs the old proverb ays an arresting headline in the financial post last week was are we ready for the coming peace how many ways could that be answered we say by just as many ways as there are diversified in terests for the mothers wives fathers sweethearts and brothers and sisters of loved ones in the armed forces the answer would be an emphatic yes to these the days of postwar plans and the great future are so interlocked with their safe return that little else matters without them there seems no future but of course a business psper was looking t the present plans laid for business getting back into a stride of peace time employment it was thinking of the plans necessary in order that the changeover from war to peace will not be as cum bersome or slow as oar change from peace to war program which is the most important after nearly five years of struggle we think the tumultous answer will be that we are ready for the peace a peace that will be lasting a post war plan that will not breed in business and man the elements that make for war a tolerance of our fellow man and other nations that will enjoy a sharing of the good things of jife with each other and not a frantic greed for more than our share or that we can uso wisely a peace that is lasting and worth living to enjoy speod is not as essential as durability v no evidence of marked ability those who hope of better administration of the liquor business in ontario under the government headed by premier drew have little cause for elation from the published figures according to tho liquor control board statement there wero in january 1043 a total of 155205 permits in the province for the purchaso of liquor in march 1044 this has been increased to 1282038 permits over eight times as many in fifteen months ontarios population according to the 1041 census was 378755 of this number approximately 400- 000 aro under the age required to purchase a permit it means that a permit has been issued for every third person in the province one man was recently prosecuted for having 03 liquor permits mayb there are some limits tho correspondence tabled on the matter by tho dominion and provincial governments leads one to infer that the attitude of tho ontario government is that as long as there is plenty of liquor made i should be put into circulation regardless of the effect on canadian workmen and tho war olfort premier drew is greatly concornod about quebec and dominion affairs a lot of folks in ontario are concerned about ontario affairs they would like to know what premier draws government is doing to stamp out the illegal permits they would like to know what control the liquor control board exer cises in these war days they would like to see a littlo more evidence of the ontario governments ability to accept the responsibility it now has before it is given any more they feel that if our provincial government had dune its duty tho dominion restric tions would not have been necessary many people will commend the action of the dominion government in refusing to remove the restrictions on a traffic let so badly out of control by tho provincial government many folks will re member the attitude of the provincial government when industry was suffering from the rood of in toxicating beverages and a deaf ear was turned to all pleadings for moderate control most canadians realizo that canadascontrlbution to winning thl war must come first even if those in authority in provincial affairs do not give evidence of a similar realization and prefer to play politics premier drew lost points in tho exchange la week his slipping is accelerating
