W. JAMES, Editor. i Mobilize Manpower One year and four months ago The States- maeditorially, called for complete mo- bilization of the whole of Canada 's resources including manpower, as a national necessity toward winning this war. Time and again since then we have pressed this necessity, and have been reviled from certain quar- ters for so doing. We have been reviled and criticized by party politicians and support- ers of the present government. But in ail of our proteste we have been strictly non- political. During this tixne we have seen ail of the Veterans' organizations go oùt record voicing the same plea, and who should know better about the Hun than the men who fouglit in the laet warf Wè have witnessed, too, reso- lutions by Church organizations, by Labor organizations, calling upon the government for complete mobilization, to-the end that F'reedom be preserved ini a free world. We have seen, too, the leaders of a political ad- mainistration dling to an election promise that conscription would flot be introduced until and unless their pledge was recinded by popular vote. These pledg'es! Both parties, more shame to thern, in wartirne made these purely po- litical, vote-eatching pledges and the most persuasive promiser won to power. That is the simple truth which no one cau dispute. Now what is the situationIlToday there-is a public opinion growing in force and in- sistence which will and must break the bonds and bounds of that 9purious, defeat- isjt, degrading promise. Ail intelligent people of Canada must know that. And now, with- in the space of days we find two of Canada 's Younger leaders and staîtesmen, publicly voieing what people are thinking and de- manding immediate action. * No governinent, no prime minister, no political demagou dare dispute or defy the clear truths and clear insistence, the elear duty made so manifest in the speeches of Col. Geo. A. Drew, leader of the Op- * Position in Ontarir, and lately returned from Britain, and of James S. Duncan, President of the Massey-Harris Company, late Deputy Minieter of Air Services who was the inspir- ing force in production of the Common- wealth Air Training Plan. Both of these men, alive, alert, capable, discerning, after careful study, have corne out boldly, clearly, force- fially, and logically for universal compulsory selective 'service within Canada. That is just what The Statesman bas so long cham- pioned. We commend' to those who read these lines, the abridged remarks of these leaders which will be found elsewhere in * this issue. v Poods and Feeds Foods are an agric ultural derivitive which *Feeds on the oCher hand, yet of similar origin, sustain the ruminants, the equine and canine friends of min. Many of the dis- ennghave questioned the distinction of = 90109loY. A goodly number, cynicaily, 'wOuld reverse it . . . . and they may be right. 'Common'y expressed, food sustains man and leed sustains animaIs. We introduce, discus- :Sion, even invite controversy, because, in Our op01n it will not be long until we are ahort of both; at leaet in Ontario. And this is why we say so. During the ipast few weeke we have had farmers of the .district tell us about their present plight, à eand whtteyhv said simply strengthens 1 'OfficiaIs and ity editors should be arranged 1 immediately of the back concessions and 1 :farmnsteads where the real battie for Britain 1 ja being fought. in our opinion, if ever there t Was a wartime industry of first magnitude s~ purned, forgotten, or contemptuously ig-L apored by a political administration, that in- 1 j4uatry is agriculture, 1940-41-42.e '.Let us hasten to tell what we were tolde Ibyseveral leading farmers of this district. C ~TJAey represent dairy, beef, hog, grain, t Itifuel and vegetable production. Some f oI these farmers are losing out; indeed one 10j alredy done so. Among them, since the d Uý ýdlatrict opened for set tiement, a hundred 1! ~yasago, they have farmed over 1200 acres ti l*f and; have developed pedigreed herds, pi ;"p>rize seed grain. They hiave long ago ac- ci Iquire a competence and could retire. But th %beiy have hung on through depression, wait- m ing to give grandeons a start. Now, today, ar y fot Ouiy have sous gone to factories but as grandsons have gone to the armed forces . .. Ai I The Canadian Legion la making its ant Poppy Day appeal ta the people cf cOmmuniby this week. The Poppy Ena 110W a recognized institution wherever Canadian Legion existe in Canada, and serves a two-fold purpose of much me The money wbich is raised by the dis bution of the Poppy-tbe symbol of sai fice-la used entinely ta relieve unue distrees among War Veterans and th families. At ail tumes, it has beeu fou y that the Veterans, lu view cf the fact t] a many cf 'them have disabilities and. han caps, suffen even mare than'athene whe out of employment, since maay cf them quire special cane and attention which th are unable te provide.

We com.mend it ta your syn pathetie censideration, ia the. hope that yoi wilI nespond generously and thus help t, hold the torcb flung te you by those wh, did not came baek. National Railway Anniversary October 27th. marked the 85th annivensar3 af the inauguration cf threugh passengei train service bctween Montreal and Toronto It was an October 27, 1856, that q *t',%iu sel out fnom Montreal at 7.30 ia the. morning ti arrive at Taratt at 9.30 o 'dock that night, This marked a great advance in the con- structian programme of the former Grand Trunk Railway, now part cf the. Canadiaz Nationalo=ilay. Lt may aiea be eaid thal this bit c ala pioneening put Bowman. ville on the m.ap and railway timetable. Whule the. terminal stations are not the saine today, the main uine is that wbich ivas openéd for service during 1855 and 1856. Tii. original Moutreal station site is now a freigbt yard, whilc York, wbich was the 1856 terminal for Torato, le today tbe site of the Danforth station of the Canadian Natinal Railways. The original sciiedule bas been cut ln lese than baîf, the "International Limited", a train several times the. weight and capacity of the first train, powered by Canadian National locomotives now doee tth. daily rua in 61/2boni-s. SWhea railway service was establisbed bc- tween Toronto and Montreal in 1856 stand- ard time was something lu tbe future and the echedul, was eperated on "Montreal Time". This was fasten by 8/2 minutes than Brockville time, 12 minutes better than Kingston, 14Y2 ahead cf Belleville and a full 23 minutes faster that that recorded by Te- ronto clocke. V_ State Cruelty and Callouanesa Oan tbey, today, buy a pound of butter, a sack cf flour, a ton cf eaI . .. or a mavie ticket, more cbeapîy than their neighbore, the Joneses? That is tue question. That is the simpl, test of whctber a soldier's de- penden.ts are cntitî.d ta a "c ast-af-living" bonus. For the salema and considred con- templation of readers aI The Statesman, for aIl of thase patriote who Ivere swayed by the. appeal of Mackenzie King in March 1940, and who helped vote hum back te pow- er, wie give you these facts as we have glean- ed them from reports of officiai acts, from Onders-in-Couacil, from the font cf a war- lime political geverament; Let us get the. facts clear. When uvar broke eut in 1939, the. Cana- lia,, goverameut, just as had the one of L914, called for volunteers . .. and they got them. Ln other words, they hired men and paid tlîem ta fight and die for the freedomn nf those îloft+beh nd. Tbey hiredandpaid this acreage will go back to gra.-;s and weed and we don 't mean maybe! The facte a: here. Let the goverument, let Mr. Gardinei let anyone corne and see for themeelves. Yeç let the editors of nietropolitan dailies coni and sec and then ,tell the governiment jus what they have seen. We îvill gladly act a a guide of sucli a tour through Durha] Clounty. Even last summer, a survey under. taken by The Statesman discovered ovei 3000 acres out of normal production. In 194l it may well be tripled hereabouts. And sc ,ie say we may be short of food and feec, and quickly too. -V- A Recognized Institution " e.
