News Parade By Elizabeth Eedy A ROYAL VISIT: It is something to be thrilled about that the King and Queen are coming to Canada next year. Something that has never happened before in our lifetime. A marvellous gesture of good feeling between Great Britain and the United States will be their visit to President Roosevelt. Incidentally it will give the European dictators ample food for reflection. Only one thing about their trip to Canada that disappoints us -- they are not bringing the little princesses with them. DAYLIGHT SAVING: We're back at it again. Daylight saving and the Canadian farmer. A couple of weeks ago in this column we asked to be enlightened. Why don't farmers want daylight saving? Here are two suggestions that have come in. Firstly, a farmer must wait till the dew has dried each day before he can go to work on the land--if he gets up by daylight time, it means he has an extra hour to put in, waiting for the fields to dry. Secondly, since the farmer works by the sun, he finishes his chores by the sun, doesn't get into town to do his shopping till they are done (in- advertent rhyme). If the town is running on daylight saving, Mr. Farmer then ari-ives to make his purchases just as the stores are being locked up for the night. Very interesting arguments, those. But we still wonder how the entire continent of Europe i go c ! for s SAVE THE COUPONS Get this Beautiful Silverplate (Wm.Rogers & Son) MORE BLACKMAIL: Great Britain doesn't like Hitler's suggestion that she limit her air force to one-third the size of Germany's. Can't blame her for not liking it, but what can she do aboui it? Turn Hitler down flat? ' K^must be remembered that Great Britain in 1935 asked Gei--many to limit her navy to one-third the size of the British, and was accepted. If Britain now refuses to accept a percentage limitation in the field of air armaments, German denunciation of the 1935 naval treaty would be an unpleasant consequence. And the British Government heads know it.v^Germany could begin at once building new types of ships which would render whole sections of the British Navy obsolete. 10,000 "VOLUNTEERS": Considerable cause for rejoicing was felt in some quarters over the withdrawal by Mussolini last month of 10,000 "volunteers" from Spain. It was hailed as a peace move of the first magnitude. Not taken into account was the number of Italian "volunteers" still left in Spain (some say it touches 80,000). Again, who were the 10,000? The wounded, the in- 0 UPTONS TEA capacitated, the no-good fighters Fresh troops may replace them i; Spain at any moment. THE WEEK'S QUESTION: What is the "Rosenberg Plan," and why is Europe afraid of it? Answer: It is a plan of campaign followed by Germany which calls for the Hitlerization of the Continent, the formation of a Nazi "Continental Empire" of 100,000,000 people. The plan prescribes the liquidation of Switzerland, the seizure of Silesia, the disintegration of Belgium, the incorporation of Scandinavia within the "Empire." It claims the Baltic States, Flanders and Lorraine for Germany. United, this empire (according to the plan) will proceed to its second task-- the conquest of Russja and the road to Asia. Prisoners Try "Noise Strike' Three transients have found out that a jail isn't the place to create a disturbance. Awaiting the arrival of Magistrate J. B. Hopkins, a trio in Fort Erie, Ont., started a "noise strike" and they banged their steel cots with such terrific force against the bars, ceiling and floor that residents and merchants residing in the vicinity of the jail complained. One man was sentenced to a total of four months, while the two Hamilton youths received three months each.
