Services, on the question of reinforcements for the Canadian Army overseas is remarkable for two features \u2014 the first is the admission that he did not know of the exact situation facing the Canadians in the Old World and secondly that he would personally assume the responsibility for raising the reinforcements necessary for the BRITAIN AND U.S.WAR PLANT FINANCING The tremendous expansion of United States industry to meet the demands for armament production has been one of the outstanding achievements of the war and has been one of the principal factors in the success of the armed forces of the United Nations.But with all.due respect to this great industrial machine, it must be remembered that a great portion of its development can be attributed to the expenditures of the British Government in that country in the two years and three months which preceded the United States entry into the war.Previous to the United States becoming involved in the conflict, 1 Great Britain spent some $4,000,000,000 on war orders in the United States, every cent of it in cash because under the terms of the Neutrality Act, no belligerent country could obtain credit for war supplies.That $4,000,000,000 played a vital part in putting the United States on a basis of war pro- PRESS COMMENTS UNFAIR TO DEWEY St.Thomas Times-Journal The figures of the United States elections present two widely different pictures.One set showing the popular vote gives President Roosevelt a majority of less than 3,000,000 out of about 45,000,000 votes.Governor Dewey made even a better run than did the late Wendell L.Willkie who was defeated by 4,900,000 votes.But the Electoral College vote, which is the one that really decides the election of President, gives Roosevelt at time of writing 413 votes and Dewey a mere 118.That is a grotesque misrepresentation of the opinions of the people.It makes it appear \u2019 n,.\ti>___ut:___ _____., duction.For instance, that cash financed

undoubtedly most of them will be sold and Canadian home defence army.Only an order-in- such prices that American manufacture will re- council is required to make them ready for service.And the Government seems unwilling to make this step.V-2 ROCKETS One interesting feature of the reports from the Old Country relative to the V-2 bomb, the latest terrorist weapon, is that the enemy has so far been unable to judge their effectiveness.Although they have been in use over a month, the British security system is such that it is doubtful if the German high command knows where they land.And according to neutral reports, the German scientists are experiencing considerable difficulty with the radio steering.In addition the Germans are inspiring stories that V-2 has been a failure, not only because of its inaccuracy, but also because of its lack of terror effect.This is due to the fact that it obliterated Britain made direct payments for capital facilities! of vates> he was defeated by a rela lively small margin.The extent nf the anti-Roosevelt vote is grossly understood by the Electoral College figures.The United States electoral system is cumbersome and roundabout, lacking the straight forward method in vogue in Canada and the British Isles where the general vote decides everything, The Electoral College is an anachronism.With a little luck Governor Dewey might have carried some of the States that possess a large Electoral College vote, and if he did not win\u2014and on the popular vote plan, as in Canada, he would not have won\u2014the apportionment of the 531 College votes would have been very close.It is, in fact, quite possible for a candidate to receive more popular votes than his opponent and yet lose the election.This actually happened in 1876 when the Democratic candidate, Samuel J.Tilden, received more popular votes than the Republican candidate, Rutherford B.Hayes, but Hayes had more votes in the Electoral College and was declared elected President.In this and other elections States have been won and lost by a comparatively few votes, but the total Electoral College vote goes to the man who has the majority no matter how small it

convinced that no agreement will be reached when the talks wind up.The Netherlands delegation precipitated the controversy by declaring that cartels aré necessary for the expansion of business.This brought a wide-open split, with the Indian representatives offering a violent denunciation of these agreements among private interests of several countries for the purpose of regulating industry and commerce.One delegate went as far as to express the opinion that the various standpoints were too far apart to be reconciled in any statement of policy by the Conference.PRAISE FOR CANADIANS Boston

will send out against the St.Hyacinthe Navy team on Sunday when the Indians and the sailors clash in the first hockey game to be seen here this season.Ehigre\u2019s squad shapes up into what looks like a pretty powerful unit, backed by Roger Dion, veteran goalkeeper, in the nets.Up front, the Indians have Gaston \u201cPop\u2019\u2019 Leroux, Hob Bergeron and Ivan Boisvert.Dugre said today that he also expected to have Jean Paul \u201cMoose\u201d Ranger in uniform for the game Sunday.Ranger was supposed to arrive in town last night to take up his old job with the Sherbrooke Fire Department and is expected to be on hand for the exhibition tilt.The Sherbrooke Indians first line \u2022will see Ovide Gaudet, returning to the hockey wars, at centre, flanked by Emile Letarte and Noel Boileau

Gauthier, at centre, with Normand Dussault, the speed demon, patrolling the left flank.Coach Dugre will present a \u201cKid Line\u201d as his third-stringers.The line, Philip Bergeron, Gilles Dube and Oscar Lavoie, all with the junior champion Canadiens last year, worked as a unit in 1943-44 and were regarded as a powerful attacking force.Harry Allen, rangy centreman.will not see action this week as he will be in Montreal for the week-end.However, he will be back for the hockey wars next week.VALVES SWEEP AT FAIRBANKS The Valves were the only squad in the Fairbanks Bowling League to register a three-string victory in the latest games of the schedule played by the eight teams at the plant.The Valves recorded their win at the expense of the Stoves.In other games, the Standpipes beat out the

the Stokers, took the honors in the Stokers-Oil Burners match with 135 and 342.H.Bench, of the Blowers, captured both high single and aggregate in the Standpipcs-Blowers contest with scores of 147 and

sufficient weight to turn back the Toronto tars remains to be seen, but they already have captured the Eastern Canada Navy championship1 as a result of their victory over! Halifax Navy.The Combines have suffered one' defeat at the hands of an Ontario team this year\u2014they lost 3-1 to University of Western Ontario \u2014 but they draw some satisfaction thatj their Toronto opponents in Satur-\u2019 day's contest lost 21-14 to the same team.Brown, who once starred with the Montreal Big Four club and Ohio State, along with Steve Levantis, former Queen\u2019s University and Toronto Argos star, and Pat Santucci who was with the champion Wildcats last year, are the mainstays of the line which has a number of newcomers, including John Crin-cich as snap, Mickey McCall at middle, and lion Webb and George Bainbridge as insides.Jack Wedley, another Argos star, holds down one of the end berths.A1 Hurley, who helped Western win the Intercollegiate title in 1939, is at quarter, and Dutch Davey, star of last year\u2019s Halifax Navy team, handles the kicking and plunging.I Bucko McLeod and Roy Kirbyson' impiété the first string.Included, among the alternatives are Guriy Hiltz of Toronto Collegiate, and a number of Montrealers; Ian Bar-i clay, Howie Baker, Dave Katovitch, Sam Abbott and Charlie Ellis.Don Loney came to Montreal recently from Halifax where he was snap-back and flying wing with the Navy team there until last week.Menichelli Unveiled In The Ring Where Fabulous Firpo Started; They Laughed At Wild Bull, Too New York, Nov.17.\u2014James J.Johnston unveiled Fernando Menichelli in a match with one Lorient Bouchard of Montreal at Laurel Gardens, Newark.You could not get much of a Line on The Mighty Menichelli, as Boy Bandit Johnston has nicknamed him, in a joust with Bouchard, the French-Canadian being sorely handicapped by a china chin and! whatnot.Menichelli is an Argentine ha w-weight, however, and his making hk American bow in the same ring which introduced Luis Angel Firpo to this country in 1922 makes him a story.\u201cFirpo was hanging around Newark in a celluloid collar and raincoat,\u201d recalls Promoter Babe Cul-nan.\u201cA Newark Athletic Club friend of mine kept after me to put him on.I saw him in an exhibition at the Old Shubcrt Theatre on Broad Street, and he couldn\u2019t get out of the way of the resin box.Movies of $125 Fight \u201cBut my friend kept pestering me.Finally to get rid of him I gave Firpo $125 to box Sailor Tox Maxted, who was going fairly well at the time.\u201cThe first thing I knew a little fell ow named Joe Geegee was put-tin.g lights ;n the Gardens for moving pictures.That war, all right because it was good publicity, but I still didn\u2019t think Firpo could fight when they installed a special cable at the ringside to give ihe fans of Buenos Aires a blow by blow account at $1 a word.\u201cTo protect myself I promised Firpo $250 for his next start in the event that he got over Maxted.He knocked out Maxted rather spectacularly in seven, so I decided to up his end for a match with Joe McCann to $300.\u201cI chased him out of the office when he demanded $1,000, but went looking for him at that price the following day.Firpo Got It Quickly \"Firpo got off the floor to belt out McCann, a terrific puncher, in CATARACTS AND Landis Said Ready To Retire BRAVES BATTLE From Office In Near Future TO 4-4 DEADLOCK Fernando .Boy Bandit John-fton calls him The Mighty Menichelli.tals 443 473 492-1408 Standpipes won two strings.TRUCKS A.\tBeaudoin .\t86\t93\t87\u2014266\t\t\t\t H.\tMosher .\t92\t102\t108\u2014302\t\t\t\t R.\tGilbert\t\t67\t77\t76\u2014220\tR.\tRivard ., .\t87\t84 L.\tBoudreau .\t98\t117\t94\u2014309\tE.\tGlande .\t84\t52 C.\tTaylor .\t62\t77\t106\u2014245\tH.\tRichard .\t70\t113 \t\t\t\t\tA.\tLaframboise\t7\u20195\t142 THORPE TO ACES Quebec, Nov.17.\u2014 ((P) \u2014Bobby Thorpe of Brampton, Ont., who recently was discharged by the Canadian Army, reported yesterday to Quebec Aces of the Quebec Senior Hockey League.He probably will play a.s right winger when the Aces visit the Commandos in Ottawa on Saturday night.8-6\u2014257 99\u2014235 Jimmy Johnston Luis Firpo Valleyfieîd, Que., Nov.17.\u2014(®\u2014 Shawinigan Falk Cataracts came from behind last night to force a 4-4 overtime draw witti Valleyfieîd !
