The new world order which we hope to fertilize with the lashes of the old order in Europe can be expressed in those very terms. To turn the jungle of sovereign states into a community of nations:; to seek for each and all of them greater economic welfare; and to establish the conditions in which each can rise to its full political stature and make its full contribuâ€" tion to world progressâ€"these areâ€"the wider war aims of the Allies in every continent. | There has indeed been grave agâ€" gression, in this generation, in Asia and Africa .But what the countries of the British Commonwealth, and of Franceâ€"Beyond the Seas, are chiefâ€" ly fighting for is not the mere foundâ€" ations of the gooud life as nations and citizenâ€"states of the world, bu the chance to go on building the superâ€"structure. i _ _Does North America, does Austraâ€" lasia, or the parts of Africa â€"and Asia where the writ of British and French imperial power runs, / live in constant fear of aggression by ? neighbor armed to the teeth, follow:â€" ed by subjection to a ruthless racial tyranny ? What Indians would exâ€" change the position of their country for that of, say Rumania toâ€"day. completely â€"independent _ sovereign state though she be ? And Then â€" World Progress. Rather they should be proud. For the fundamental reason is that in practically _ every quarter of the world, outside Europe, the bases of freedom and ordered progress have already been secured. The world order waits on Europeâ€" an order. Nor should the extraâ€" European peoples, fighting side by side with Great Britain and France be agigrieved that this is so, â€" or complain that waraims in Europe can be more precisely expressed than war aims in their own continents and oceans. _ The defeat of Nazi Germany in Europe, imoreover, is the condition precedent of achieving our war aims in the wider world. Until the nightâ€" mare of.dread of attack by Hitler and his hordes has been rinsed from the consciousness of Europe (includ ing therewith Great Britain rnd Ireâ€" land). there will be neither the cast nor opportunity for the larger effort that we burn to make towards world: wide economic and political progress Again, ‘ when we come to expre:s our war aims in concrete terms, we must need begin with the liberation of European states enslaved to Nazi Germany â€" Czechoslovakid4, Poland, Denmark, Norway. At this stage, i is hard to express other war aims with halif such sharp definition. Yet, although overâ€"emphasis of the need for building a new order, speciâ€" fically in Europe, is to be regretted. it is wholly natural. The foe we fight is a European Power. The ocâ€" casion of the war was an act of flagrant aggression in Europe. In Europe, as this is being written, lie all the theatres of active land warâ€" fare. 1 The reproof is fair. It is not mereâ€" ly to alter the map of Europe that Great Britain and her Allies of the Empire are resolved to win the war against Nazi Germany at whatever cost. ‘Their cause and their objecâ€" tives are worldâ€"wide. 7 The First Essentialâ€"Order in Europe â€"(By Britannicus)â€" British statesmen have been reâ€" proved, by correspondents in the British commonwealth overseas, for emphasizing the European aspect of Allied war aims.

Funeral services were held in Grand Forks, B. C. for Duncan (Mickey) MacKay, one of hockey‘s allâ€"time _ stars, who died in an automobile accident last Thursday. Hundreds of friends filled St John‘s United Church to pay last tribute to the "wee Scot" from Chesâ€" ley, Ont., who came to British Colâ€" umbia to stake his way into the hearts of hockey fans. | If we recall, there was a somewhat similar incident at the valley at Forks of the Credit, where at least one man lost his life in the gold rush.â€"Fergus Newsâ€"Record. one man was doubtful and he sent samples to Toronto, only to learn that it wasn‘t gold at all, but the soâ€"called "fools‘ gold" or iron pyâ€" rites. y ‘They tried to keep their find a seeret, but other people, looking for the Falls, saw the men quarrying the quartz, and the rush was on. But Geneva reports _ _ Last week‘s Arthur Enterpriseâ€" News tells another story of Eugenia, this time‘ of the gold rush in 1853 into what was then unexplored terriâ€" tory. A settler named Brownlee heard the roar of the falls from what is now Flesherton and made his way there. Later, he returned with another man by the name of Miller. They not only found the water, ‘but they picked up quartz fragments containing what they thought was gold. f The very nature of the countryside up around Eugenia Falls suggests romance and it is no wonder that some interesting stories have come from there. A history of the Eugeniâ€"; |j a district, or better still, a novel} y based on that history, would probably | 4 be entertaining. â€" Last year, we pasâ€"| y sed on stories abcut the mystery of ; the ancient tunnel above the Fa.lls.!m and told why there is a townsite‘t re large enough for small city. 1x Coâ€"operation of all municipal counâ€" cils, officials and county judges is to be sought by the department of municipal affairs in an effort to overhaul the machinery of the presâ€" ent municipal â€" election procedure, Hon Eric Cross has announced.

The only distinction which makes them recognisable as Poles is a little arm badge with inscription "Poland", similar to that worn by Canadian airmen. The Polish air force has now been formed into two main groups: the fighters in France and the bombers in Great Britain. Over 1500 officers, nonâ€"commissioned officers and men are being trained, "somewhere in England."
