Ontario Sells “Export or Die" Since Hitler spoke Nazi propa- gandists have been engaged in a vigorous nation wide drive to stimulate exports by reminding manufacturers of their "national duty" to sell abroad. Not long ago Walther Funk, Minister of Economics, threatened to penalize those who neglected opportunities to export. Official figures made public re- cently showed German exports dropped 12 per cent, chiefly in in- dustrial products, and imports gagged " per cent. compared to the previous month. The import decrease was chiefly in vegetable foodstuffs. Trom December to January the adverse balance of imports increased by M,038,000 marks (about $12,100,000.)

Looked Like Bandit There were not many prisoners in the police cells at the time no authorities asked a group ot re- porter' and a photographer to etnnd in line with the two prison- en. When the newspaper men and the two prisoners were placed in a line along the Will at the police station, the Wooduock couple were brought into the room. The woman was immedintely attracted by the looks of one dark chap in the line- up. One London (Ont.) reporter went around with the red face while authorities cast glances ot sus- plclon at him. After two London men had been arrested on charges ot holding up a St. Thomas butch. er shop, a man and a woman came to London from Woodstock and asked to look at the prisoners. The Woodstock couple had been held up two weeks ago and thought the London pair might have been the bandits.

SQUEEZE-PLAY: While Britain and France Were rushing last week to accord recognition to Franco's regime, Genet-u] Molesworth, head ot the International Commission evacuating foreign troops from Loyalist Spain, was declaring that there was still enough food in Loyalist territory to carry on the war toe another two years; enough man power to hold out indetinitely against the Nationalists. Munitions only were lacking but the Loyalist Government, with the third largest gold reserve in the world, was un- able to buy them. FROMISSORY NOTES: Vincent Sheean. noted American author and foreign correspondent, who has Just returned from the European scene, say: that it Premier Mussolini de- clares that the Italians will leave Spain when victory comes. he means only the Italian infantry will get out. Mr. Sheean explains that Franco owes Mussolini $2,000,- 000,000 or $3,000,000,000 in promise sory notes, and that Italy will be in a position to demand a military alliance to cut France's life line to her colonies in Africa. “The next crisis will be in the Mediterranean between France and Italy, possibly in Tunisia." Can the Canadian Government do nothing about this sort ot thing? Or has such a net of terror been thrown around our German-born citizens that they dare not speak?

But if your son gets his name In the paper--- that's real news! Ma! In Ontario there are two senior teams that are likely to go places. Right now Toronto Goodyears, who won their regular Senior "A" 0.H.A. schedule without a defeat, ers lost about eight players trom last year's team, but to the credit ot Coach Don Penniston they have done a fine Job of rebuilding. Two Ontario teams playing in Quebec leagues may cause the big. gest upset of all. The famous Corn- wall Flyers, who won the Eastern Canadian Senior championship last season and went into the Allan Cup t1nals against the Trail Smoke Eat. ers. are leaders in the Quebec Pro. vincial League, having completed their regular season with a com- mendable margin over the rest of the circuit. Like everybody else, the Cornwall Eyes are engaged in their league play-offs. They lost but nine games during the past sea- son and several of those setbacks came when the team was riddled with illness and injuries.
