A. Forrester, Publisher Thursday, October 6th, 1938 A GREAT COUNTRY Row that the war clouds have disappeared from the skies over- hanging Europe the nations are congratulating the four great powers that dame to an agreement at Munich at the expense of Czechoslovakia that saved the world from the greatest massacre the world would have ever known, it is fitting that -thibute should! be paid to this little na- tion that has seemed to lose. Throughout this long crisis the Czech people, by their unconquerable courage and by their restraint, have deserved the respect and admiration of the world. They were great in their hour of sacrifice and they will be great in the years to oome. The spirit of such a race is unconquerable. Their leaders have given way ithat peace tm'ay be maintained, given away the richest part of their country, the mines, forests and industrial centres in the hope that millions may be spared from paying the great sacrifiée of the war gods. They. have accepted the inevitable with a dignity that does them honour in the moment of apparent de- feat. Whet* the peace plan was first approved by Prague, President Benes declared he and his people were ready to work with Britain, •Germany and other nato-ns for the peace of Europe. The little re- public, is only twenty years old, made up from the great war over 20 years ago and it has had a stormy and precarious existence, but now that the iSudenteniland has been transferred back to Germany it will do away with the principle danger spot, and it may now look forward to a secure and dignified future. In its hour of sacrifice it has earned universal sympathy and esteem, and has risen up to be a great country, one that could have staged a great- conflict with an enemy, though de-' deciding to save mankind from the horrors of w-ar, a country that, all other Europe nations could well take a lesson from. A country is great when- they will give up part of their country so that others may live. BUILDING A GREAT COMMERCE For a century or so Canada has been filling a very real place in the marketing world. Energy, enterprise and dependability upon the quality of our produis have been the characteristics of that international trade. Long before that, it had begun with beaver skins and cod fish, but it was not until the wheat era had begun and the Golden West had lured the homesteaders in their thousands, that Canadian trade abroad took a prom- inent place in the commerce of the great nations of the world. Canada to- day is the fifth nation, our trade being exceeded only by that of Great Britain, the United ‘States, Germany and France. Canada stands fourth in the volume of exports. That is ,a very gratifying fact, fulfilling the hopes and,prophecies of the brave pioneers, who laid the foundations of this nation. Canadian trade has been expanding ra-pidly since the depth of the de- pression was passed in 1933 and it has been expanding even this year, al- though we are minus are usual heavy wheat crop to bolster up the figures. During the first ten months of 1937, Canada’s exports have increased over the same period of last year by $122,000,000. But our export of wheat has dropped by $69,000,000; if wheat, is, eliminated from the figures, Can- ada’s trade in other commodities is up by $191,000,000. -But the missing of that wheat crop has served to emphasize the complex charmer of Canadian trade, that upon no orie commodity are we entirely dependent in order to preserve the relative importance of Cana- dian -commerce. At the present rate of progress Canada, -at a early date, will be back to the two billion dollar standard that was reS-ched in the late twenties, and it is significant in that connection that the prices of many commodities are not so high as they were then. While all this is encouraging, it is true that international trade is hampered by many restrictions. Before • the war and afterwards, tariff rates constituted the chief barrier to international trade. Without entering into the question of the-merits or demerits of tariffs, which is a very debatable subject, it is true to say lhat- tariff- were undoubt- edly a restrictive ! influence upon imports. HITLES LIKES A LOT (Continued from page one) acres of forest in the Sudeten re- gions alone, half go to Germany. Neither Poland nor Hungary, has yet revealed the precise extent of its territorial claims on Czechoslo- vakia. But the Tesichen region in- habited by Poles covers about 772 square miles with à Polish popula- tion of some 100,000, Its main na- tural wealth consists of high grade hard eoa.1. Hungary s believed to want about 6,000 square miles of Slovak territory in Southern Czechoslovakia, with a Magyar population of 700,000 and also more land: later after plebis- cites. Hungary principally covets Slovak lumber and also salt which she now imports. Most of Hungary’s sugar now comes from Czechoslovakia as well as barley for beer growing. An aut-horiait.ive 'Czechoslovak â- statement issued in London summed up the situation thus : "The territory Hitler leaves us would entirely deprive us of the necessary conditions of economic life through the loss of important indus- tries and raw materials. “To a large extent, only agricul- tural land would be left to Czecho- slovakia which would become entirely dependent upon Germany.” . : Well-informed Czechoslovaks in T* Couiity and | District News Wesley Frail- has been named Noble Gran of Durham Lodge, I. O.O. F.. Port Hope. Net proceeds from -the Lions Club Fair of Port Hope amounted to $729.76, it was announced by Mr, A. W, Lent,, treasurer. To encourage the building of houses under the Federal Govern- ment scheme, Peterboro council has offered bargain sales in building lo.ts. Fire on Friday last destroyed the barn arid 1,000 bushels of grain owned by Charles Wilson, 0f Perry- town. The fire was caused by a tractor running near the building. John Wells, Port .Hope baker, is poorer by six dollars as the re- sult of a visit by a stranger who asked to look through the phone directory for an address. Mr. Wells then went to the bake shop to re- move some pastry and in. his absence the money was taken. ORANGE MEETING (Continued from page one), ing Orono Lodge and was pleased to see two Valuable men like Rev. Lit- tle-wood ,an-d J. J, Mellor- attend and whom would soon become members. He said that lodges ' should hold more social evenings and not devo-te all the time to business, as the so- cial functions always brought every- one closer together. He was glad to see that peace was restored as there was so much suffering caused by the last war. He said that the Orange lodges stands for loyalty, be loyial to your lodge, your officers, church and king. Mr. Bowen then congratulat- ed the degree team on- their work and said that he never tired of waitohing them go- through their work. Wor. Bro. Garland Oathcart, 'of Kendall Lodge, was then called upon to say a few words. He wished more had been present from Kendal Lodge to see the degree team in action, and extended an invitation to Orono Lodge to -attend their meeting on November 2nd and wish- ed all to attend. Mr. Fred Couch, District Master, of Cowan vile, also extended an in- vitation to Orono Lodge to attend their meeting on the 18th, when Bight Worshipful Pro. Mitchell will be present. Mr, J. J. Mellor was then called uipo-n. He congratulated the degree team as he always has for their splendid work. He then delved into the British policy of the last few week-s. He said there were many solutions given to prevent war, but was sure Chamberlain was right in bis choice.- The timfe-s are changing :m<l we cannot -always live in the past, that things- are constantly changing in our political and na-tion-al life, that there must be advancement in some things. He to-ld of his being brought up with th-e sound of the drums in his ears, and that he made an exten- sive study of the flags of -the different regiments. He believed that there has never been a greater thing accom- plished than what happened last week to preserve peace, but that the democratic powers, if they had want- ed to go to war, could have smashed Germany to. pieces, but at Munich they bad a lamb and that was Czecho- slovakia, 'and because of her sacrifice that, country will become the biggest nation in the world. Chamberlain tried hard for peace, he even faced ruin of character in an- endeavour to save the countries from going to War. Mr. Mellor said he believed that today we have the best King and Queen we ever had, that they did a thing that has never been done before, t-hat is, they stepped back into the. shadows and let Chamberlain have his own way about preserving peace. Mr. F. Bowen extended a hearty vote of thanks to the degree team and and the lodge for the pleasant even- ing.
