spot in the ontario news picture last week was premier hep burn s attack against the government at ottawa made through the resolu tlon he forced through the legislature regretting that the federal govern ment at ottawa has made so little ef fort to prosecute canada s duty in the ww in the vigorous manner the peo pie of canada desire stripped of all its manifestations that resolution shines because it re fleets the happy fact that democracy is still with us in a vigorous state of health in spite of the temporary sys tem of regimentation to which oana dlans have voluntarily submitted the government in power can be attacked without the canadian replica of the gestapo tossing the attackers into the kingston penitentiary n ithout ceremony similarly we in ontario may re jolce in the knowledge that a group of liberal members who have stood un der the hepburn banner were able to 5pum their leaders resolution without the danger of losing their jobs or hav ing their families harrassed by the friends of a dictator the ramification of this resolution and the farces behind it are of course disturbing ottawa knows that quite apart from the criticism directed the government s way by conservatives who may or may not be actuated by political expediency there are many citizens of this country who are irked by the apparently slow aaclmethodical prosecution of canada s part in the war we are up and doing type of people who prefer explosive action to quiet steady pressure strangely enough most of this feel ing of dissatisfaction with what cap- ada is doing is caused by the oer mans they haven t bombed england vet canada s present war policy was strongly urged by great britain whose government visualized a terrific battle taaealr b ln- cluding a tremendous aerial bombard ment of british industrial centres panadas role s a gigantic supply centre for theallles was prompted by the s expectations which carried jihe cities tos introduced an elaborate plan of blacc- out for all of england and set up a system of homedefense unsurpassed in her history thus it seems reasonule to beusn that prime minister kings govern ment might well take a leaf from the note book of lord tnr on satur day last this british fienmsn took the oooasinn to answer crltin th elaborate precautions against air raids which have not come lord halifax had two observations to make first that the absence of air raids might be explained by the very effi cient defense set up and second that because there had been no big scale raid up to today was no reason why there would not be one tomorrow let there be just one big air raid by hitlers flyers raining destruction on british industrial centres and pre sent feeling against the britishspon sored canadian war policy would van ish overnight let there be a series of such raids badly crippling english in dustries and one would hate to be in the shoes of certain impatient cana dians who have been advocating the rush of more and more canadian
