can be talked ocr tn the var lous province it is perhaps worthy of nou that the chief hassis of discussion has been how to divide the taxpayers money the hone of contention is whether the dominion shall collect more and dole it out to the provinces or whether the provinces shall collect it individually and dole a small amount hack to the municipalities me haven t heard of a bn of discussion on thi responsibility of provincial and dominion govern merits hor instance such a conference mould he e spec ted to deal with whose dutv it is to enforce the canada temperance an there has been some

war is small compared with the billions of dot lars in other war goods produced hut the indust rial know how required in making the gas as far greater than the value of the iiiaufial produced would indicate canada s chemical industry prior to the war was relatively simple it was founded chiefly on the great water power areas where it could produce grral quantifies of basic chemicals and resins cheaply rthe coming of war brought great problems and one of them was the manufacture of poison gas be cause of the crossing of the rhine the use of gas by the enemy w ihrt thvuntid naltmia had to rntet this threat in kind so canada undertook the manufacture of mustard gas it was a difficult ob chemists had to mnkr in jon lot a liquid the slightest drop of which on the skin would raise great hhstcrs in the tve would muse permanent blindness and if breathed in small quantities would cause serious illness if not death inexperienced workers had to be hired und trained to make and handle the

i icpt of altclllzcn av eragc voter is more concerned with these things than in the division of the spoils true it is well to define where taxation can be stopped rut with each war and the years that intervene there has been built up a system of taxation that should at least be curtailed in the peace vears and deleted rather than divided among the taxing bodies me hope the conferences will finally reach these phases of the problem before they break up the point to keep in mind is that the wars overt lets have some post war study of taxation much dtseusston on suitable war memorials it sccui to he gencrallv taken for granted that monuments with no particular usefulness will not be the lorm of lememhering the sacrifices made that the cnuse el freedom might predominate there is a trend to have something more useful to commemorate ihc aenfice of the war since all the community was whole hcartcdlv be hind the war effort and since all shared in some measure in hrtnging about victory it seems reason able to deduce that such a war memorial should he communitv whatever the project chosen to be a memorial it should be a fitting one and one that will honor the sacrifice as well as please the living there are many worth while proposals being made and all of them deserve consideration by all the citizens when a majority decision is reached on such a memorial its success can onl be assured b

brothers and sisters the dullness of home these arc what the average teenager thinks about all day mbat we think about all day is our philosophy of life roiled down this teen age philosophy is to have

this mould have been called the philosophy of a lost generation and a toboggan slide to hell it is stilt all of that but today it is also the phiusvphv of lost democracy for there arc malignant ami democratic forces on the prowl for personal or part power all they have to do to get control of to da s voungsters and tomorrows world is to keep kids minds on sex port and trivialities continue to divide them from their parents and responsibilities promise all the liberties they want to da however thefc is still another gang of youngsters in the field the still think of date but of what the can

nat the box i mean quick fore j they still think home can be dull but it la fitting now we hear a good deal these days about our deal ing with the japanese wc have in canada and there is a wide variance of viewpoint on the question it as our privilege to have quite a conversation with mr htuart lowne who was prisoner of the japan ese from the fall of singapore until the close of hostilities mr lowne was a civilian prisoner ma as conducting business for a canadian insurance company at the time he left with us his notes and e secured permission to make a copy of them and to use them atwesarw fit me think it is fitting that we should use them now and starting next week wc will publish parts of these observations each week mr lowne has since returned jo his work in singapore when these notes appear it should be borne in mind that t the treatment was that accorded civilians by the i japanese wc do not believe in being vengeful but j c do believe in being careful and viewing all
