This need not be in a countrv . with the natural resources that Canada has. There are a great many lines of goods we might jQSt as well make here and1 stop paying Europe for them. At the‘ beginning 0‘! the war Geruanv con- fiscated all English and Canadian patents in Germany.

Canadians shvuld and will find the details of what Ger- many and Austria have produced and sold to other countries and set themselves to supply Other dupli- cates or santitates. I i The first and perhaps the greatest 3 effect of the war on Canada is the ex- ; traordinar} opportunity for the ex- [pansion of Canadian Trade. Since so many of her competitors have shut down and the demand continues, Can- !ada must do what she can to supply ‘this demand. l {5338” George E.
