wanton.\u2019\u2019 \u201cSneak raids are not purposeless,\u2019\u2019 said the Mirror.\u201cThey are undertaken with three main objectives in view.It is part war nerves, it ties down defences and it is a valuable means of training pilots and crews.\u2019\u2019 German propagandists talk about new heavy bombs being dropped on Britain but they fail to tell their listeners that the aircraft they are using for the sneak raids are Fockc-Wulf .190 fighter-bombers capable of carrying a bomb load of not more than 1,000 pounds.Germans are not told that since the start of this year only a score of raids have been made against Britain by more than twenty aircraft in each attack and that sixteen per cent of the total number of machines sent here since the first of the year have been destroyed.By comparison, the R.A.F.sent ( Germany during the same priod several thousand heavy bomber,.(two types of which carry bombs of greater weight than any dozen raiders the Germans have sent over Britain)

destruction of the Axis.When that blueprint for victory was drawn up in January at Casablanca, the chief architects, Prime Minis'er Churchill and President Roosevelt, indicaied that it was expected to hold good for nine months.That a revision was considered necessary before half that term had expired is proof of the enormous shifts only a few weeks can bring in this global conflict, of the headlong pace at which history is being made.The President's tvvenly-two-word announcement Thursday, Hint the chiefs of staff had ended their Washington conference \"in complete agreement on future operations

factors which entered into the deliberations at Washington.STRENGTHENING THE FRENCH FRONT Two important week-end developments have materially improved the position of the French forces arrayed against the Nazi oppressors of their native country, the first being the apparent agreement between Generals do Gaulle and Giraud, and the | second being the decision of the commander of the French naval units, immobilized at Alexandria since I the fall of France, to throw m his lot with the United Nations, The first is by far the most important from even angle, as it assures that the battle forces

richest in Vitamins A and C.Here is a list of vegetables containing calcium, given in the order of their value, the richest first: Green outer leaves of cabbage, turnip greens, mustard greens, collards, kale, watercress, broccoli, endive, Swiss chard, beet greens, dandelion greens, celery, kohlrabi, spinach, okra, leaf lettuce, parsnips, leeks, turnips, snap beans, cabbage heads, canots and onions.The calcium content of vegetables will vary according to the presence of calcium in the soil.Sandy soils and those in wooded sections also are likely to need lime.Lime is east ly added, preferably in the form of fine limestone, applied before the garden is spaded, and thoroughly mixed with the soil.Lime has great value in stimulating the growth of plants, also.Though not a fertilizer, i: makes plant food present in the soil more available to the plants.Phosphorus is contributed by the following garden vegetables, given in order of their value: Fresh lima beans, green peas, parsnips, collards, loose cabbage leaves and broccoli.It is also found in many other foods which will be reasonably abundant under rationing, so it is not necessary to grow any vegetables especially to provide it.The green, leafy foods which are so valuable for their vitamins and calcium arc also good contributors of iron.Many vegetables not listed a« rich in calcium, contain some of this as well as other minerals.One does not expect to get all his quota of any vitamin or mineral from any one dish as a rule.Rut in planning the menu, there should be a good representation of the foods which contain these vital elements; and this year you cannot count on having enough of them, unless you plan to grow many in your Victory Garden.% LABOR LEGISLATION ninety-six members, for a

By Wm.E.McKenncy, America\u2019s Card Authority.A NECESSARY SLOW-UP L\u2019Information, Montreal.It has recently been reported that United States judged it wise a little while ago to slow down somewhat the war effort on the domestic front.That is to say, in other words, that | the conetruction of new factories, ' machine-tools, etc., will be notably I diminished in the course of the next j months.Naturally, that is not to say ' that as many planes, ships and muni-! lions as ever will not be produced, i hut for that purpose existing facili-! ties will be used.For some time, on ! the morrow of Pearl Harbour and down to recent weeks, industrial activity in the United States was feverish.Every day, it might be said, new factories arose around which grew up towns where, a few weeks earlier, there had been only fields.Naturally all those different factories had to be used.To make machine-tools, when factories were insufficient, new ones had to be built.That went on for years, down to the time when ' it becamUff^parent that the avail-! able resources in material and manpower were scarcely sufficient for the factories and equipment in use at the moment.It goes without saying that no-one could go farther than that, since there would have been useless waste.All construction in hand was suspended.DROP QUEEN ON ACE TO BAFFLE DECLARER This is the second of a series of articles showing a technique of play known as false-carding.This series will prove beneficial to expert and beginner alike.* * * I do not want my readers to get the impression that it always pays to false-card.Use this play only when you have something to gain by it.Today we have another example of a neat false-card play.North leads the three of spades, East puts on the five-spot and de-1 clarer (South) finesses the jack,| which holds the trick.South lays down the ace, and now East has an opportunity to execute a skilful false-card play.East should drop the queen on the ace, not the ten-spot.This puts the declarer up against a guess.He does not know whether to play the four-spot from his hand and finesse the nine, or go up with the king.In all probability he will play the nine-spot, and thus East will win a trick with the ten.If East plays the ten on the ace, A K 9 6 3\t\t A 872\tN W E S Dealer\tA QIC5 A AJ4\t\t1 declarer will not have much choic* except to try to

organized effort to force the high command to modify its strategical concept of the war by shifting the weight of our attack from Germany to Japan are reviving an American political concept that most of us had thought abandoned forever.This is the theory that Congress in time of war is able to function as a supreme general staff.Congress has tried it again and again, but the results have been uniformly harmful.More than once Congressional efforts to direct strategy has led us to the verge of disaster and not once has such an effort contributed anything of perceptible value to the conduct of a military campaign .The responsible commanders today are Roosevelt, Marshall and King.They are TIMELY COMMENTS party organ: \u201cThe tenacious exertions of the British and j 8grw>ment with ,he

sinkings for some time and achieve a certain easing in the Battle of the Atlantic.\u201d Krohne added that \u201cit must not be concealed that the battle is indescribably difficult and demands unimaginable determination in the face of the weather and the enemy's defence.\u201d In meantime, reports reaching Stockholm from Berlin state that Germany is preparing for summer defensive warfare while Nazi military leaders hope that no large-scale invasion will start until they can replace the losses in men and material suffered in defeats in the Donet basin, at Stalingrad and in Tunisia.AVhile there is talk in Berlin about a Russian summer offensive between Kursk and the Crimea, a correspondent of the Stockholm Tidningen said that German political circles expressed the belief there would be no major action for at least a month.Ollier quarters, lie said, held the view that there would be considerable \u201csoundimr-out,\" offensive nre- ties in whole or in part and thus discourage capital | investment.For the sake of the Province it is to be hoped that the responsibilities of office will bring to him the realization of the importance of his decision.Alberta is rich in natural resources, which could do much to assure her prosperity after the war.but to develop them takes capital and capital will only come with the reasonable assurance of stability.Thus he faces
