FRIDAY AUGUST 18, 1922. DAILY BRITISH WHIG. -- r-- 8ir John Macdonald's Canadianism Se Quebeg Chronicle A commentary upon the velume of correspondence of Sir John Maedon- tld recently published by his literary executor, Sir Joseph Pope, is con- tributed to the Queen's Quarterly by J. L. Morrison and draws attention to the interesting central impression that this correspondence conveys, namely, that 8ir John was "one of the first founders of that strange combination of loca! independence and central union which we call the British Commonwealth." "Hot-headed and foolish support- erg of 'John A.' have tried to picture that canny Scot as a Jingo," observes Mr. Morrison; "and jealous 'Grits' will always refuse to believe that , their arch-enemy was a sound Cana- dian. Yet the letters prove beyond Possibility of doubt that Macdonald anticipated, by half a century, those | views of Dominion Nationhood whick, today, find in General Smuts thelr chief exponent. Not even Laurier parliament, is altogether imprac- ticable.' "Yet the same men who 850 reso- | omy spoke with ecorn of the provine- | ial outlook of the British Torles, when in 1867 they failed to eee the meaning of Confederation 1870, 'who cannot, I fear, be consid. ered as appreciating the importance pf maintaining Burape as it is, in- tact." He made the finest and most genorous sacrifice of that day for the sake of Imperial unity, when he per- suaded the Canadian parltament to vote, on the highest grounds, for the Washington Treaty, which was un- popular in Canada and very directly assisted thereby in securing his own (later defeat. And, as Sir Joseph | Pope points out, the last sentences in his volume were penned in protest {against a scheme of unrestricted re- jciprocity with the United States, | which would have joined the two {countries on a basis of protection {against Grea: Britain, "There have always been two groups of little Englanders and little { Canadians," declares Mr. Morrison in | conclusion, 'one of them Jingoes who lutely stood up for Canadian auton- | He dis- | trusted Gladstone and his Cabinet in | 'Was more consaantly on guard to pro- | could only think of a world-wide sys- teet Canadian rights; while, at the [tem in terms of Plecadilly Cirous and same time, he was trying to persuade |the Park: the other, bitter and timid- timid British Conservatives, and un- |souled radicals, who could never see imaginative Manchester men that the | __today less than ever--the practical British Empire was something great- | efficiency, the {ncreased political wis- er than their dull minde could eon- dom, and the genuine reinforcement eelve. It was his vocation to teach [to the peace of the world, which come Britain and Canada how perfect local independence and perfect Imperial co-opération were complementary truths in the world of modern poli- tics, "The letters abound in instances of Maedonald"s sound 'Canadianism.' In 1349 he refused to send represen- tatives to a proposed London con- ference--Mhis Dominion had still to Arow strong within herself. In 1870 he expressed humorous dismay over the possibility of an Imperial Com- Mission to deal with the Red River troubles: {from the unbroken union and eo- operation of the free British peoples. | It was Macdonald, not Disraeli or any {other, who had the first clear glimpse | of that essential truth; and his great- est achievement was, not only that |he persuaded Canada to regard the | British union as her natura] and per- | manent home, {forced stubborn British minds to see | that local independence was the sole | i basis for continued Imperial connec- tion: and that the British Empire was and mus: be a vast system of compromises and surrenders, each surrender, just because it meant a |new gift of freedom, leaving the fab- rie stronger than before. "They may call Disraeli, if they will, the greatest of modern Imper- falists; Macdonald was something greater---the pioneer of our modern Commonwealth of free sister na- tions," 'To send out an overwashed Eng- lishman, utterly ignorant of the country and full of crotchets, as all Englishmen are, would be a mds- take. He would be certain to make propositions, and consent to ar- rangements, which Canada could not possibly accept.' 'He never changed from this at- titude of watohfulness over Canadian rights, Even the Soudan war brought no weakness of sentimental patriot- fem.

Although the principles of con- | struction and operation in the larger power tubes are no differ- ent from those applying to the use of smaller ones, many effects that are negligible in tire latter are somewhat' magnified in the case of larger tubes. The man- ufacturers of the Radiotron tubes have offered some excel- lent precautionary suggestions for the care of tubes looking to- ward longevity. The majority of accidents to power tubes and to their auxiliary apparatus occur during the period of develop- ment of circuits and testing and adjustment, rather than during operation, and a little care in making these adjustments Will prove of advantage. The following points, briefly enumerated, are all of importance and will lead te better results if studied by According to the manufactur ers, Radiotrons listed as UV202 and UV203, in order to prolen their life, should be mounted an operated in a vertical position, whereas UV204 may be operat- ed either in a vertical or horizon- tal mounting. However, if mounted horizontally, the plates should be in a vertical plane; that is, with the seal-off tip down, In powerful continuous wave sets the circuits should be so ar- ranged that the center tap on the filament coil, and also the negative lead of the direet cur- rent high voltage source, are both at ground potential relative to high frequency potentials in order tu insure safety.

BATTERY ON 13 V. SYSTEM W. B. asks: Can I use a 6 volt battery instead of the 12 volt bat- tery that came with my car, discontinuing the use of the starter and cranking the engine by hand on the magneto? Answer: It would be hardly feasible, as this car is fitted with a generator that char, at 12 v. and that would not be suitable to charge a 6 v. battery. You would have to replace all the 13 v. lam bulbs with bulbs of 6 volts an either exchange the horn for a volt one or use a hand operated signal. The generator would have to be prevented from generating and the battery charged from an outside source. No doubt you could start the engine by hand cranking it on the magneto and you would have lights, if you took care to keep the ttery charged. but we think that you would find the arrangement unsatisfactory, FOLLOWING oft, CHANGING INSTRUCTIONS N. H. writes: companying my car say that the engine oil should be changed every 350 miles in winter and every 600 miles In summer. As it takes nearly two gallons te fil the system, this makes my oil bill pretty large fearly a fifth of my gasoline bill for a part of the year ~and I am wondering whether it Is really advisable to use all this oll, partfeularly as I understand The directions ac- Questions of generst interest to the motorist will be answered by iough in this column, space permitting.

Mr. from owners of cars of other makes that changing ofl every 1,000 miles in summer and 600 miles in winter is often enough, Answer: fou better follow the manufacturers' directions, as they can have no other motives than Food ones for recommending this seemingly lavish use of oil. Your CAF Is one of the finest built and is worthy of the best care, It cost enough so that it is not advisable to take any chances of injuring the engine Yor the sake of saving a little on lubricants. The owner of 4 big car, with a high powered multi-eylinder shgine, must pect to use quite a little oil if he is to avoid costly repairs. ---- ie V. BATTERIES W. B. asks: Can I use two six volt batteries instead of the 13 velit battery that came with my car and how would the connections be made? : Electrically speaking, this is perfectly practical, but you would probably find that the two batteries would not fit readily Into the space provided for the single 12 volt one. As all your e¢ircuits take the full battery voltage, It would only be te eon- nect the present ground cable to the negative pole of one of the bat- teries and the present main bat- ® to the positive pole of the other battery and then to cone nect the free poles of the two bat- tories by a piece of cable of the same carrying capacity, using a form of terminal connection equiv- alent to that employed on the orig- inal battery. Any § v. batteries which you are likely to ebtain probably be of unnecestarily high Ampare-hoyr capacity and ® a bulky combination that will be rather inconvenient fo in- stall, so that the above arrange- ment can be recommended only as an expedient.

London, Aug. 17.--Future dis- position of the numerous North- cliffe publications, following the death of the famous British jour- nalist, is a secret contained in the will of the late Viscount, which is known only to his lawyers. Much may depend on the date of the will. Fleet street conjecture is |ibat Northcliffe may have written a new will during the last few months, or during his illness, in which case his ctondition might have radically altered the orginal. In event of unexpected revelation as to disposition of the properties, it is even suggested that litigation might ensue if the will is found to have been made during the last few months. The properties are valued at one hundred million dollars. Northeliffe had seven brothers, four of whom are mentioned as like- ly beneficiaries under the will. Lord Rothermere, owner of the Dally Mirror, heads the list. The other brothers, are Lester and Esmond Harmsworth, members of Parlia: ment, and Sir Cecil Harmsworth, '| Under-Secretary in the Fereign Of- fice. General speculation is that the will may purpose the formatiom of companies for the direction of the various newspapers, including some of the leading members of the staffs of the Times and Daily Mall, with these and others of the 100 pub lications to be directed ty the rege ular editors now in charge."

"I killed them because God me to. 1 have power to make if rain and they laughed at me. laugh at a disciple of God meant death," he told the officers. EF He added that Zimmerman par ticularly deserved death, because "lI read in the Bitle the other that he killed a Canadian in 2B troit."
