ie Minister Bennett made a direct appeal for & the support of the great army of industrial workâ€" _ _____ ers and farmers on Friday night, as he amplified in a second addresy to the nation his radical plans for _ reform of the economic system, While declaring that . h ouldâ€"cleave to all that is good in the present sysâ€" _ tem, he announced his determination to revamp with Pxe and skill those features of it to which present m&'fioq' éo:nditions may fairly be charged.

Even the Star‘s course of action can hardly be credited to one man. Advisory executives are still in style. Regardiess of what the weatherman may say or think, every day of above freezing temperature is a day off the winter. So cheer up, spring clothing is being shown in the store windows. If the Canadian Radio Commission would do a little something to justify its existence, it might muzzle Sun~ day programmes which under the guise of economic dis~ cussions develop into political outbursts. What strange turn of fate led that unfortunate brakeâ€" man to make the mistake he did will be another of the unexplained mysteries. Little good can come of adding to his misery. _ _From Mr. Ingram‘s observations we gather that he anticipates the Saar will vote to go back to Germany. The coal trade of France will then revert to the mines of Wales and England. The Saar, he explains, is enâ€" tirely German; there is not a trait in it which can be called French, and despite the French market for the coal mined there the ties of race will bring the Saar into union once more with Germany. There may be strenuâ€" ous days around voting time, but Mr. Ingram is certain there is not sufficient in the situation to cause war. There is this to be considered. Germany has plainly told the world in general that she can pay no war reparaâ€" tions and that she will pay none. That has been her atâ€" titude for years, although German payments were the basis of all other payments. It is not out of the question that Germany will follow the same policy when it comes to paying for the mines in the Saar if the people there vote to put that district back in Germany. The mines were deeded to France for a term of years, after which if the Saar reverted to Germany, that country was to pay France. Paying for the mines which were seized as war claims, will actually be much the same as Germany paying war reparations, and that will not be in line with _Gezman policy of recent years. There is this to be considered: If the Saar votes Gerâ€" man, what is there to hinder Hitler from saying "These people have voted to come in with us. They are one with us now and we will not pay for what we already possess." The only way open then would be for France to go. and get its money, and it is not likely to do that. France might well find herself in the saime position as United States with its war debts which are not being paid and which admittedly cannot be collected. If the Saar votes itself back into Germany, then Gerâ€" many under the Treaty of Versailles, is bound to pay France for the mines at a reasonabie price "to be agreed upon." Right there may come trouble. Germany would have to pay in gold, and gold has been used in the Saar but not elsewhere. How would the gold be secured to make the payments? y And yet the thing is not simple in settlement. The coal from the Saar has found a ready sale in France because France has owned the mining district since 1919. If the Saar votes itself in with Germany it is certain the French people will purchase no more coal there and the Saar will have to look to Germany for markets. The German market is supplied from the Westphalian fields and it would be difficult indeed to try and recapture even a portion of that trade. The people of the Saar will have coal to sell but they will have no market for it. The French market will probably turn to its old source of supply, England and Wales. TLLIAM H. INGRAM, for over thirty years a resiâ€" dent of Paris, correspondent for Canadian and London newspapers, believes the residents of the Saar district will vote on January 13 to throw in their lot with Germany. \In discussing the situation he said under the Treaty of Versailles, made in 1919, it was provided that on January 13, 1985, the vote was to be taken to determine the future of this muchâ€"discussed area. The Saar in area is 751 square miles; its populaâ€" tion is 658,000. It was given to France by the treaty in payment for damage done by German troops elsewhere, and there are three options which can now be exercised by the residents of the Saar, (1) to revert to Germany; (2) to join in with France, and (3) to remain under the management of the League of Nations. Mr. Ingram has been through the district several times; he described it as being unanimously German, although the people have done well by being able to find so good a market in France for the output of their mines. erefore those who wb RARE sns qo dn c ind a prmire ry Nmey Ahrragint ahorycls M nthay nc ’M be that have proven successful must be mh "Investigations of research laborâ€" must be enlisted and above all the coâ€"operation of the people must be won.

Success depends upon the coâ€"operaâ€" tion that he will receive. If James St., the soâ€"called power of Canada, does not come into line, then the people should show by public opinion that the lines suggested thus far by the Premier are the correct upon which to build. Opposition will be strong but public opinion is stronger. Let the public express in no un» certain terms their approval or disapproval of the stand taken. Mr. Bennett has laid a foundation that has placed the Canadian people on a solid basis. He is now offéring a plan that has evolved out of the conâ€" ditions passed through. With support he can put it into practice. His sincerity is best expressed by his past actions.
