Kurtz- A very interesting address was given on Thursday evening last at the regular meeting of the Ingersoll Kiwanis Club, by Rev. David Alex­ ander, the pastor of Salford, Mount Elgin and Folden’s Circuit Baptist Churches. The subject was “Robert Burns, Scotland’s National Bard.” The speaker was introduced by A. Lawrence and Rev. R. H. Parr ex­ pressed the thanks of the’ club. Jack Hyde of Hensail, and J. L. Adam of Toronto, were guests of the club. The meeting was presided over by President L. A. Westcott. In a clear and entertaining man­ ner Mr. Alexander told how Robert Burns was born on the 25th of Jan­ uary, 1759-186 years ago-and died on the 21st of July, 1796, at the early age of 37 years and seven months. Though Burns' life was so brief, his work has stood the test of time and he has won for himself, on pure ' merit, a permaneht place among the immortals of this world. To-day, Burns’ poems and principles are still working like yeast in the minds, not only of his fellow coun-1 Witty, W. W. Shelton, trymen, but among all the civilized;man, M.' 1.

Burns lived toward the close of the 18th century, which was prosaic, conventional, sceptical, hard, drun­ ken, jet struggling toward new life. The American Revolution of 1775 was on. The French Revolution like­ wise was in progress. Wm. Carey, the father of modern missions, was only two years old. John Wdslej- ■was 56 years old, but had not yet begun his. great work of evangeliza­ tion -in England. J. M. Barrie, the novelist, believed Bums was the greatest Scotchman ever born. Sir Wilfred-Laurier, the ailver-tongued orator ami statesman of Canada said:—/'After a tiresome day at my office it refreshes me to have an hour .with Bums.” Similar tributes can be produced from the greatest thinkers of all nations. Look at the man Burns! At 23 years of age he stood 5 feet 9 inches. He had a well-knit and vigorous body, an abundance of dark hair, a finely chiselled face, a resonant and very pleasing voice. Sir Walter Scott when a boj* of 15 met Burns at Professor Fergusson's home in Edinburgh one night. Young Scott said he never saw such an eye in the head of any human being. H? said it literally glowed with lustre and fire. ’ ' The speaker declared Buras’ great ambition was to ' give Scotland its Songs.’ To give a nation its songs is a greater thing than to make its laws.

He states that the sea life agrees with him, he enjoys his meals, and has plenty to eat. He also tells of meet­ ing George Savage at one of his ports of call and had a pleasant visit with him exchanging home town news. A letter from Major Don McKen­ zie details his interest in Ingersoll and Kiwanian activities. He reports that on one occasion he lost his jeep when it- went into a deep rut and jumped into a tree. He has seen George Lockhart recently and was looking forward to a leave in Eng­ land. A letter from Capt. (Rev.) C. D. Daniel, tells of how his “Padre’s Pool” of cigarettes nre replenished when necessary. On Dec. 11, he gave away 600 cigarettes to men just in from the lines and on the following day he received 900 morn 'from friends in Canada. This helps him to help the men and he sends sincere thanks.

The matter is to be referred to the town solicitor and will be dis­ cussed in committee. W. G. Hopes addressed the coun­ cil on the matter of weed control and stated that about 50G of the weeds come into the town from near­ by townships. He suggested that the responsibility of householders as to weed cutting should be more clearly defined. Councillor G. Manzer reported that he had asked for approximate prices on a steam heating plant for the town buildings. The furnace in the town hall has developed a burnt out portion that allows smoke and gases to permeate into the building, making it-very disagreeable occupants. , Councillor McCombe spoke ... regards to the snow on the sidewalks in town and asked as to local by-laws.

Dobson, Vice-President and General Manager,reports total assets at all-tim e peak with year’s increasegreatest in history of bank; southern branches in uniqueposition to facilitate Latin-American trade-The vital importance to Canada’sfuture welfare of a healthy foreigntrade based on international mone­tary and exchange stability was em­phasized by Morris W. Wilson, President of The Royal Bank ofCanada at the bank’s Annual Meet­ing.Canada owed her economid^de-velopment from earliest days, saidMr. Wilson, to foreign trade and thelevel of pre-war exports would notonly have to be maintained afterthe war, but actually .expanded,’poss­ ibly to double their pre-war value,if Canada was to secure an edquate national income. FOREIGN TRADE PROBLEMS “Normally we export considerablymore to Great Britain and othercountries of the Empire than weimport from them. On the otherhand, our imports from the United States are usually in excess of ourexports to that country. Under normal exchange conditions it wasrelatively simple to adjust this situa­tion. Our sterling balances, accumu­lated through exports to the Empire,were readily exchangeable -for U. S.dollars with which to pay for what economic system, disrupted by thewar, remained out of balance and thedisequilibrium became intensified.Countries ceased to abide by therules and no longer sought to adjusttheir domestic policies to the require­ments of the gold standard system and with the breakdown and aban­donment of the standard in 1931,each country set out on its owncourse. “Instead of adjusting domes-stic prices and production to theneeds of international exchangestability and balanced payments on international account, countries be­gan to manipulate exchange rates,as a means of increasing domesticand foreign trade in order to main­tain employment at home. Interna­ tional trade became disrupted, withevery country seeking to force itsexports on others, but to reduce im-'ports to a minimum. Competitive !exchange depreciation, higher andhigher tariffs on imports, quantita­tive quotas and bulk purchases, andsimiliar measures, were utilized byall countries in greater or less degree. Well over a third of totalworld trade was conducted on abasis of crude barter. With the......... --............ . collapse of the gold standard, therewe purchased in the United Stales. I disappeared the only operative sy-“War-lime experience, however. | stem for the co-ordination ofhas shown the difficulties which arise national economic policies; in its when this multilateral adjustment of absence, sovereign countries, actingtrade balances breaks down. As a ! independently and without regardresult of the control of sterling i for the external r----------!—made necessary by the war, Canada •has been forced to depend upon herown devices for liquidation of Brit­ish balances, through interest-freeloans, mutual aid, and the repatri­ation of Canadian securities. Wewere also forced to restrict _ pur-cliascs and travel in the UnitedStates in order to reduce the demand for U. S. dollars, thereby making iteasier for us to pay for essential im­ports: If the world should be dividedinto exclusive trading areas after thewar, as is frequently suggested ofwhich one might be based on ster­ling and another on the U;S. dollar,Canada would be in a peculiarly dis­advantageous position since she properly belongs in neither group.Our membership in the BritishCommonwealth of Nations, and thecoincidence that our unit of currencyis named "dollar” as in the United States, create an anomalous situa-tion, and obscure our true positionin the eyes of many. Because ofthese factors, and our own selfishinterests, we are compelled to prefera world-wide system of trading.There is no altruism about it. CANNOT STAND AL “If international tradebroadest scale is not fully re tend liberal Iw i-U m credit* to coantrie* who are actual or poten­tial buyer* -o# Canadian product*. and financial International thered, what can Canada do indepcn*ntly to preserve her foreign marfcts?There are certain obvious nieaswesnotably maintenance and impt^yewent of the quality of our expats,,vigorous salesmanship, andacceptance of imports from co^i-tries to which we export, up*to t limit either of their capacity toto us, or. of our ability to absorb the.products. These -are basic princip"which Canada ean and should ado whatever the rekt of the world ma ^°“What other alternatives will be normajy available to us? In the firstplace, we might have W restrict ourexports to the aB.lity of foreignmarkets to pay for dur products.Since" ’ntany of .’our-lnajor exportconfmodities are produced -on a scale out of dll proportion to bur ownconsumption, .the subsequent unem­ployment of men and resources, theagricultural depression, and the•octal problems which would arise,would build up a load that oureconomy and constitution could notsupport. Secondly, Canada mightprovide credit* to countries desiringto import goods on a basis similar tothe credits which have been estab­lished during the war, but with thehope of ultimate repayment. Finally, we could subsidize exports."Furthermore, a* I *teted a yaar _______ repercussions bf' their policies, inevitably drifted!toward international economic I chaos.”Lpon this chaos, said Mr. Wilson,: had now been superimposed the newdisequilibrium of a second WorldWar. The great importing countries iincluding Great Britain and those of iEurope had suffered devastation,destruction of their industrial mach-1 inery and, particularly Great Britain, I loss of overseas markets. Other Icountries, notably those of North1 America, had found their industriesand agriculture greatly expanded.“In order to maintain employment,”said Mr. Wilson, "it will be necessary jfor these countriea^and particularly ; for Canada, to e to an extentgreater thanbefore 1939.” BRETT * Mr. ‘ Wilsonthe BrettonJuly when tcountries soof internatiexchange ato providin readily, aWoods ppost-warthat prlargelyton Wo and p cate this interest.

While the more experiencedofficers have been under great per­sonal pressure, because of the needto train and help inexperiencednewcomers, these new members ofthe staff have learned quickly, fittedin readily, and performed splendidlythe duties allotted to them. All ofour officers serve with a sense ofpublic responsibility as well as ofduty to the bank.“Leave of absence for militaryservice has been granted to 2,255 ofour officers since the war started, ofwhom 2,154 enlisted from Canadianbranches. This is equal to 74% ofthe Canadian male officers who wereunder 45 at the war’s outbreak.Looking at the problems of thepost-war years, Mr. Dobson stated that one of the bank’s first consider­ations would be the placing in satis­ factory positions of the members ofthe staff who were serving in thevarious armed services. “This mat­ter,” he safd, “is foremost in ourminds and is being given carefulstudy. The affairs of customers inmany cases will undergo greatchanges in the transition period fromwar production to peacetime needs.' In this transition we shall be calledI upon to play an important part in'assisting financially in helping to bring about this change. It may beI ngeessary for us to revise to someI extent the existing practice of mak­ing Joans for short terms only, andI in certain circumstances to consider| loans extending over a period of two.■ three, or five years to meet changed | conditons.“I am not implying that we shoulddepart from our policy of prudentbanking, but because of our largei holdings of readily negotiable Gov­ernment securities, we may, without' risk to our liquidity, assist deserving' borrowers with longer term loans.I “Your bank is strong financiallyi and exceedingly well equipped tohandle post-war financing, and weshall consider it our patriotic dutyto play our full part in assisting■ business generally in becoming re- | established.” Looking Back 4 — In the — Files of The .Ingersoll Tribune.

No doubt many people then as now, drank whisky as an escape from sor­ row and boredom; besides this, the Christian ’“Church in Burns* time, preached a bleak, forbidding, cold and wrathful Gospel. Preachers were more taken up with.. polemical dis­ cussions on theology, than "hinfian being and human welfare; in fact,- many of them, I’m sorry to say, drank themselves.” Mr, Alexander said that years ago he had believed Bums filled a drun­ kard’s grave; but after years of' study and much reading and investi­ gation of facts, he had coma to the Jconviction that Burns drank, not' because he wanted to, but because of the habits of society and partly to escape sorrow; and though he drank and at times drank too much, Burns was not an habitual drunkard. He believed drinking did not cause or bring on his untimely death, but that his death was caused by rheumatic fever and heart disease. Burns had an amorous nature. He loved com­ pany. He sought conviviality some­ what to offset a streak of sadness and melancholy which was native to his great mind. If Burns had lived in our day he could have been cured, but medicine in the modern sense of the term, had not yet come to its own. Even the stethoscope was not yet discovered. Rev. Alexander in closing his ad­ dress, which was listened to with keen interest, said: “Burns was a^ great conversationalist. His words and thoughts were well chosen and clearly expressed. He could talk with ease and grace to the rich and learned just a* easily as to the peaantry of the land. His letters are examples of. purity of diction and strength; but above all. Burns was a Prophetic Poet, He aaw into the future.. He hated cant and hypocrisy. He believed tn the freedom and dig­ nity of human being*; be Borrowed ‘We must never standing”. Mr. Alexander believed the reject­ ion of President Wilson’s League of Nations was the biggest blunder of modern times. Its rejection by his own country broke Wilson’s heart; but some day the United States will build a great monument for Wilson like they have done for Lincoln and Washington and when this war closes the nations will fvolve a Federation of Nations with international Police Force behind it. It Was not a perfect solution; but if only America, Italy, Germany, Russia and other rtation* had taken it as a beginning in the right direction, the world would not be in the mess it is to-day. Even Robert Burns had the sense and vision to see this in his day. “Then let us pray that come it may As come it will for a’ that That s^hse and worth, o’er a’ the earth, Shall bear the gree (be (the vic­ tors) an’ a’ that! For a' that and a’ that! It’s cornin’ yet for a' that Than man to man, the world o’er Shall brothers be for a’ that."

The January meeting of the BookClub was held at the Public Libraryon Thursday, at which Miss Gertrude Allen of the Collegiate staff, was the speaker. Miss Allen gave an unusu­ ally interesting, informal talk on the life of Fanny Kemble, the fam­ ous Victorian actress, basing her information on a series of letters to various friends. After a brief sketch of Fanny Kemble’s life, touching- her family background, her demit and her tremendous popularity, her trips to New York and her marriage, Miss Allen read extracts from the letters which gave a vivid picture of this talented and vital woman. There'was a witty account of her debut, of her ride on her first train at the official opening of the railroad in England, descriptions of New York city in the early 1830’s and trips to Niagara Falls, Quebec, and to her husband’s plantation in the South. Fanny Kemble belonged to the highest circle of society in England and was intimate with poets and writers and the people of culture of her day. She wrote as engagingly of her pre­ sentation at Court, as she did of her talks with Wordsworth and her im­ pressions of the playing of Liszt' elusion, the eyes of the Junior Farml­ and Chopin and Mendelssohn.

Then again, the increased activities of the Govern­ ment in Ottawa in the political as well as economic spheres ot this Western Hemisphere throughout this war and the favourable tendency of Lation-American countries to engage in reciprocal policies in the capital here have raised the importance of this meeting of foreign ministers. In fact, Canada’s interest is keen since her stake may be heavy in the relations with her neighbours in the Western Hemisphere during the post­ war period when this nation must obtain new markets for her vital export trade which is closely tied up in her diplomatic relations. The man- in-the-street across Canada may realize the point when it is empha­ sized that it has been estimated 1 that this country has built up an in- 1 dustrial economy during this war that 1 may provide in time exports to be 1 sent in other fields to the tune of ’ over four billion dollars worth a ’ year. ’ plans and policies are tied up withstories which speculate on what mayhappen along Parliament Hill whenthe coming meeting of the House ofCommons reopens amidst the evidentflurry of intense action on the warfronts, including the possibility of alonger war than imagined by manyobservers when Parliament met inspecial session recently.FACTS AND FIGURES STRONG UNDERCURRENT There is a peculiar story heard now- along Parliament Hill and it seems to indicate that the grim events on the war fronts may cause an occurrence once again of the in­ tense agitation for more and more effort in the war by the King Gov­ ernment in regard to manpower pol­ icies. While nothing official or open has occurred to back up this story, yet this inference has been drawn by some observers from the visit abroad by top men of the Progress­ ive-Conservative party as well as the statements by .Defence Minister Mc­ Naughton in his • latest pronounce­ ments on the subject, with the Min­ ister stressing-at one time that the "reinforcements are more than prom­ ised and demanded” and that "vol­ unteers are coming forth" in far larger numbers than last year at this time. However, a culm reminder must be given now- that, though it is true- that changing conditions mny bring forth changes in policies in wartime, yet the Government in Ot­ tawa has the power at the present time to send more than the 16,000 draftees overseas authorised at the last meeting of Parliament, if such a need or decision should be made by the Government... The Government doe? not need the sanction of Par­liament for such'a move in the fu­ ture,’if this should any emergency. Ni ! It must be stated that this vet-. eran observer has found that figures. are too often reported without. proper explanation of their meaningI or signficance since statistics may, mean less than nothing unless there . is an experienced and intelligent un­ derstanding how to look at them in j Ottawa. When the statistics are quoted that Canada’s birthrate- is going up by showing that last year there was bom in this country 283, 035 ns against 272,313 in the pre­ vious year of 1942 or 229,468 in 1939, it must be born in mind that as far back as 1921 Canada’s birth­ rate was 29.4 births per thousand population. The figures given for last year indicate a birth rate of only 24.0 births per thousand population or the previous year a mark of only 23.4. These comparable statistics tell the story and not merely figures for a few jyears. Likewise, when it was stated recently that there was an increase in unemployment insur­ ance claims, being 11.798 'Tor one monthly period ns against 6,222 for the previous month or 2,896 for the . same month of the previous year, , it must be born in mind that the important part of the report was the j stress that increases in such claims , are quite within the expected hap- , penings in Ottawa at this time of the year even if there was a little big- (ger trend in such claims beyond the j seasonal trend. In plain language, the , story behind the story must be j known intelligently, if the statistics or figures are to he understood j properly in their true light.

However, there is noth­ ing new* in this close co-operation between Canada and the United States on manpower problems from time to time as vetern observers re­ call how Ottawa allowed persons to” go- across the international border to work in the United States in the west, when harvest requirements de­ manded such manpower there or Washington allowed Americans there to do similar service in Canad­ ian harvest seasons. Then again, the same reciprocal attitude was taken in both capitals when men from New- Brunswick and Quebec engaged in lumber work in the section of Maine ureas where such needs developed. In other words, whenever extra help was needed by one or the other country and such aid could be given without doing any harm, exchange of manpower was effected with as little red tape as possible, this being the background of the latest consid­ eration given to need of certain workers in an airplane plant in the United States from a similar factory in Canada, though a story in Ottawa has indicated that Canadian officials are looking over the labor field for possible deed of more workers in war industries in this country, es­ timates claiming that the need may co over the thirteen thousand mark as more United States orders are coming nito this nation’s factories due to the latest devlopments in thewar.

Present indications are, how’ever, that production this year may be substantially heavier than last year; that is if the 506,000 colonies of bee3 in all the provinces give aver­ age yields which they didn’t last year. If average yields do result the total outturn of honey will be about 48,560,000 lb. and a pot luck dinner was served atthe noon hour.

In case we have THE DOMINION OF CANADA “All the history and development of Canada add up to a big post-war problem, because nil have led to great and ever increasing depend­ ence upon foreign trade,” declares the January Monthly Letter of The Royal Bank of Canada. “It is being recxnrniz.cd generally that post-war markets will not be handed to Canada, but will have to be worked for,” continues the letter. “This Dominion Is emerging as one of the important surplus-producing' nations, and will be. after the war, one of the three or four creditor countries. Out o a total of $9 billion of war goods which Canada produced from the beginning of the war up to the end of 19-1-1, between $6 and $7 billion has been made available for the use of other United Nations. In fact, with only about one-half of one per cent of the world’s population, Canada has stepped into third place among trading nations, with a com­ bined import-export business, in the 12 months ended in September* of $5,200 million. Exports are cur­ rently well over the $3 billion a year mark, compared with SIM billion before the war at Vontparable' price levels.”'A significant factor of these . statistics, the letter , indicates, is the increasing proportion_^oT export ■'goods, fully dr chiefly'manufactured. In 191,4.;Ctjnada’s exports^consjsted of 51,%. raw materials nnd 33 (J dully and chiefly * manufactured articles; in 1943 the .proportions wbre 18'r raw materials and 65'/c manufac­ tured. “It is evident,” says the bank let­ ter, “that Canada cannot with this development of industry depend upon export of wheat and other natural exports, nor dare she drift into peace without doing something about I the tremendous problem of replacing 80 per cent of her present exports, which are of purely war-needed1 goois, with products that will be required by foreign countries in peace.” All other nations will be developing consumer goods for both the domestic and export markets, although it will take many countries a long time to build up their own industries. During this period Can­ adian export policy should be so shaped as to meet both the demand for consumer goods and the require­ ments of the foreign countries for machinery and equipment with which to rehabilitate their factories, "If Canada could in this way assist other countries to become established or re-established, two notable contri­ butions would be made to her own re-orientation;-these countries would become customers, because the great trading is not between a developed and an undeveloped nation, but be­ tween progressive nations; and the immediate demand upon Canadian factories would tide the country over the worst of the reconstruction period.” Particulars are given of Canada’s development in agriculture, forestry, mining, fishing and fur farming, but special emphasis is placed upon the tremendunf^growth in manufactur­ ing from a capital of $-1? million 'in 4870 to 15,500 .million,'in 1942._ It is pointed out that the increase in wages paid has been from*$41 'mil­ lion to’$1,683 million over the same period. Canada’s trend to industrial maturity had been constant since Confederation, and has been merely accelerated by the war. The splen­ did achievements of individual in­ dustries in the war effort are pointed out, and mention is made of plans for the post-war reconversion, about which the letter remarks: "The-out­ look of Canadian industry is hope­ ful, and industry as a , whole has nover been better prepared or more enthusiastic in face of the challenge of the future." In summing up its argument that Canada is. part of the world, the letter says: “It has taken countless, generations'to lean\ that men canndt- shirk world politics and at the, *aiq.e time enjoy private freedom. After, ■flying around tlfe world'on a trip of 31,000 miles, this late Wendell Wi[kie wrpte: "There are^hb distant points ■in the world1 any longer. I learned by this trip that the myriad millions of human beings, in the F^East are as close to us as Los Angeles is to New York by the fastest trains. Our thinking in the future must be world^wide.” The Royal Commission on Dominion-Provincial relations de­ clared that it is only by a role in international business that Canada can maintain anything near her pro- sent standard of living, and support the great capital investment which has been made to equip her for thia roles. The sharp fall in export prices during the depression brought the trtith of its worid-wide dependence ' home to Oknmia. Some there may be who fall back upon the trust that Anglo-American sea and air power in the post-war world will ensure the security of North America, but most people are awakening to the fact that co-aperation is a matter of give as well as take, that benefits must be earned by the contribution of a fair share toward the mainten­ ance of world stability. It is true that Canadian life is closely tied in with that of the United States. Be­ fore the war, when 40 per cent of our exports went there, and 60 per cent of our imports came from there, and hundreds of thousands of per­ sons of both nationalities crossed and recrossed the undefended bor­ der, these countries were united in a friendship which has stood firm through war nnd will continue to knit their destinies in peace. But since the battle of the Plains of Abraham, Canada has been a mem­ ber of the British Empire, and has developed in security and with affectionate help and encouragement into complete independence. Such as these are ties that cannot be severed." In conclusion the letter deciares: “That is Canada. In population, she is a small nation; in territory, she is vast; in natural resources and in­ dustrial development she is next to the United Kingdom, the United States and the U.S.S.R. This is made possible by energy, mechanical gifts, intelligence and initiative of her people. Her days of technological de­ velopment and economic expansion have only just begun. She is eager to live at peace and in friendship with all the world, and to contribute her part to the developing happiness of mankind." Gleanings From Ottawa NOTABLE CANADIANS Few doors in Washington are closed to Lestei Bowles Pearson, O.B.E., newly-appointed Canadian ambassador to the United States. .His affability and keen wit are well known in the White House and many a humbler dwelling in the capital, Pearson replaces Leighton G. Mc­ Carthy, K.C., first Canadian Am- ■ bassador to the United States, now ■ 75, who is retiring from diplomaticI life. I No admirer of spats and gardenia I diplomacy, “Mike" Person'' has a background that fits him for the'strenuous post at Washington. Here Canada's expanding diplomatic force has a job of vital importance and one.that will grow rather than dim­ inish. Forthright Ambassador Pearsun is perhaps Canada’s most popular dip­ lomat. He is credited with a remark in the last war that characterized his disregard for the excrescences of diplomacy. “We’ll win the war,” he prophesied, “if wc don't run out of carbon paper.” Th Manchester Guardian, one of Britain’s best regarded daily news­ papers, in full-blown praise of Pear­ son on his departure from Britain, said, “He is shortly exchanging Lon­ don for Ottawa, to the regret of all who have had experience of his flair for making formal conferences hu­ man and for clipping red tape. He is indeed the exception which proves the rule that diplomats—for diplom­ acy is his sphere—are tall, austere meticulous in attire, and evasive in been misinformed wc would welcome your reassurance. “We need hardly remind you,” says the YWCA president, "of the marvellous response married women have made to the urgent—even passionate—appeals of the Depart­ ment of National Defense -and the Department of Labour to enter the armed services and industry. It is n proven fact that in peace time most married women work for money be­ cause of economic necessity and not because of indifference to home re­ sponsibility. Many such women nave loyally answered the call to war services.” • LAID TO REST GEORGE A.
