World Co-operation In Prospect

i 7

Events of the past few weeks have concentrated attention on the inter-
dependence of the nations of the world, and, by their promise of a general
__attack on a world scale upon the major problems of the hour, have injected
new hope in suffering humanity that at last a serious effort is being made to
cure the ills which have prostrated the world economic ‘system. Conversations
of leading statesmen at Washington, definite assurance that the world econo-
mie conference will be held in London next month, the prospect that solution
will be found in reciprocal tariff arrangements and adoption of an interna-

tional monetary unit, have had diate ficial effect in the ‘kets of
the world, and appear to have restored some of the confidence lost in the
crash of 1929 and the bitter years since.

Canada, in particular, faces the task of committing its new crop to the
fertile soil with a renewed optimism and a higher courage. Assurance from
Washington and Ottawa of reciprocal agreements in the offing that will tend
to reopen channels of trade long made barren and unproductive by prohibi-
tive tariff barriers, have produced a most welcome reaction in the Prairie
West. Conjoined with this looms possibility of an easing of the general trade
situation in Continental Europe where Canadian wheat has found continually

The movement toward world co-operation bears with

it also the harbinger of such conditions as will make effectively beneficial

sows higher hopes with his seed this year!

The idea that an international problem can only be tackled successfully
in an international way, was long in penetrating the minds of many world
statesmen. This may have been due to the fact that statesmen are pro-
verbally hesitant of moving in of public opini id it is a fact
that public opinion, since the war, nurtured on fears and desperations, has
been ly istic in in virtually every civilized coun-
try. In consequence, the nations have sparred defensively to evade disarma-
ment, despite the general abhorrence of war; and have erected tariff barriers
in the futile hope of ping self- national despite

Trip To West Indies

Summer Cruises On Fast Cunard
Liner Mauretania

Fiye summer cruises from New
York to the West Indies have just
been announced for the fast Cunard
liner “Mauretania.” The duration of
each cruise will be 121% days, the
steamer leaving New York on a Sat-
urday and returning Friday two
weeks later. It is considered this will
make the cruise very suitable for
those whose vacations cover only two
weeks.

The itinerary for these cruises will
be much the same as that covered by
the “Mauretania” so successfully this
last winter. The ports will include
Port of Spain, Trinidad, La Guayra,

the fact that a customs port may be more provocative than a concrete fort.
The t of has tended to retard concerted ac-
tion upon the economic problems; but the strangulation of world trade with
its of d and almost universal suf-
fering, has finally served to awaken general realization of the essential inter-
dependence of nations, and recognition of the fact that the sure path to
recovery lies through co-operation. Even France, with all her hoards of gold,
has been forced recently to borrow $150,000,000 from England to buttress the
franc, demonstrating that in this day and generation no country is so organ-
ized as to be able to live of itself alone.

Generally speaking, therefore, it may be said that the world at last has
become internationally-minded; and that is a sign that common-sense is re-
asserting itself. In Germany alone would there appear to be a reactionary
movement towards a narrower nati but the in Germany
is capable of a dual interpretation. It may be true that Herr Hitler and his
Nazi army have resurrected some of the more subversive characteristics of
Prussian “j ” in their Hed id revolution”; but it is
also true that Herr Hitler has evinced a willingness to negotiate with other
nations of the world not only in matters of trade and commerce but also in
matters of ts. The new G (js e, while driven along in-
ternally in a narrow nationalistic regimentation by men imbued with the
“administrative ideals of a sergeant-major’ (as Guedalla would say), is
awake to the necessity of co-operation in the wider field of world politics and
trade in the interests of world peace and world prosperity. That is to say,
the rigors of the Nazi discipline would appear to be fundamentally protective
of the German commonwealth against the peril within the gates rather that
aimed at any imaginary peril from without. In any case, the German inter-
nal situation does not necessarily impair prospects of a successful solution
of the world economic problem, nor weaken hopes of a restoration of normal
trade relations among the countries of the world.

Hold Meetings By Telephone

Post Office In London, England,
Gives Unique Service

So that business men in widely sep-
arated towns can hold a joint confer-
ence without travelling, the general
post office in London, England, has
arranged for simultaneous telephone
connection.

The matter is arranged simply by
informing the post office that certain
specified people in, say, London, Man-
chester, Leeds and Glasgow are re-
quired at a definite time. The general
post office links them up and they
can then each hear the voices of all
the others and do their business as
though they all sat in one room.

Another thing that has been
demonstrated is that a car going 60
miles an hour will hit a concrete
abutment just as hard this year as it
did last,

twentieth of a carat so far) have

Nervous—Could Not Sleep

The Dominion Government was si-
lent on this issue. Today, as a conse-
quence, the Canadian cattle export
trade is limited only by the capacity
of these steamers to carry cattle.
They are scheduled to carry 450 each
every three weeks to Britain all sum-
mer which will mean that a maxi-
mum for the year of 45,100 will be
exported.

Canada could easily export 100,000
head it is claimed. The cost of fitting
a boat is about $12 per head of cat-
tle capacity. A boat big enough to
take 500 head would cost $6,000. A
boat to carry 400 head would cost
$4,800.

Priest-Artist’s Paintings Adorn Walls

His “Way of the Cross,” just finish-

They are rich in colours, beautiful
and of aesthetic value. In addition to
beautiful contrasts of colors, sym-

received at our offices we decided to
look into the question of climate
thoroughly. We obviously did not
want to send pleasure cruises to the
West Indies in summer if there was
any doubt as to whether such voy-
ages would encounter pleasant and
comfortable weather.

“To this end we obtained official
weather and temperature reports for
the entire year at various West In-
dian ports which the “Mauretania”
touched at this winter. We found that
these statistics bore out completely
what our agents in these ports had
represented, that the variation in-

ure between and
winter was practically negligible.

“During the day the islands are
swept by constant trade winds, so
that a sultry day, such as we experi-
ence in New York is practically un-
known. The nights are invariably cool
and comfortable.

“Summer seas prevail throughout
the entire itineraries practically guar-
anteeing complete absence of motion,
the highly desirable feature of cruis-
ing at sea without the discomfort of
rough weather,

“The cost of sea cruising was never
so ical from the p
stand-point than it is today. The rate
for these cruises in less than what an
ordinary summer vacationist spends
