Pd E* time THE AXE publishes à story dearing on the marttal ae Tin .felicitios of one of {he high mucky-mucks hereabouts there Is à great deal of criticism expressed.1 recelve many abusive and threatening letters, Anonymous, of course, End they go into the waste paper basket, practically unread, My telephone de kept busy by friends of the partles in the case, some appealing that nothing more may be sald; others melting the wires with the fervent heat of their adject- dval oloquence, I listen to all and, little as it may de believed, I do my Best in harmony with my duty to soften and tone dowa the dauming duets that constitute the news tu question, ss 0 Some of my friends who have expremred to me thelr dislike of these Mpcandal stories\u201d, as they call them, human interest stories, ne I rightly \u2018all them, say, \u201cI supposy you print these stories in order to get cireu- latlon™ 1 shall not underrate my readers\u2019 Intelligence by asserting thay such stories have no effect on our circulation That would be wrong Noe is circ: lation out of our thought when we pring such stories, But we have progressed far enough with THE AXE to know that we have a Ready circulation, whelh ls growing consistently each week, and that we do nog need to print a scx story in order to increase or maintain the circulation of the paper.For instance» the article oa \u201cHeary Ford and the Jews\u201d gavp one of the biggest boosts to circulation we have ex perienced.À story we ran on \u201cGirl Slaves at Goodwin's\u201d was another booster for THE AXE.As a matter of fact we do not go around looking for sex stories; they come to us \u2018That ia to say, they come to Us à à Rews-gathering organisation and, as We have no \u201csacred cows\u2019, meaning dy which persons Who must never have anything appear in THE AXE cancerning them which would be derogatory of them, we simply print the news that we gather.es = There is behind our publication of steries of the kind re ferred te mere than the giving the people the news.There is aa attemp: on the part of THE AXE to get a square deal fer every body.By the way, | wender how many people know that 1 ence published a paper in Montreal known as \u201cThe Square Deal\u201d.(It was an election sheet), Go back to the latest of such stories published in THE AXE During the hearing of the case in question in the Court House of Montreal everybody was rigidly excluded from the room in which the proceedings took place.Not even lawyers were admitted if they had wo cenaection with the case, while stalwart policemen guarded the deors.The persons involved were rich.But at the samg time similar cased were going ou elsewhere and aaybody could \u201cTeton Ta\u201d and any swwspaper secure the evidence.The parties to these matters were poor.% % _ Is there one law for the rich and another for the poor?There is fot, and there ¢hould be ne difference in the administration of the law.1 dp not know who is to blame In this matter, or whether anybody is to Blame or not.For the judiciary I have nothing but the highest respect \u2018ani Delieve that, apart from the common human failings that affect all affke and from which no judge even can bs quite free, our judges are upright, comscientious and impartial The point I make is that if the furoily of 9 rich man is to be shielded and ugly facts kept out of print bacamse .of the high social standing of the persons concernsd then the fxmily of the poor man, of the middle-class man, should be considered a» equally entitled to protection from the publication of unsavory de- tals of marital infelicity.A square deal for everybody! If thers is to be concern for the family of one man why not for the family of every msn?And, further, if there is to be protection of families are not the right ones to exercise it the husband and wife, the father and mother, of such families?In other words, if a rich man or a poor man does not care enough for his family to keep out of the divorce court, why should any jodge hear his case in camera, or any newspaper withhold the story from the public?If Sir Hallelujah Chorus does not care for his reputa- \u201ction as he fondles around the Countess Macaroni, why should THE AXE worry about it?J Ne We But there is a\u2019bigger quesiton involved in this matter.| believe that publicity in the matters of divorce, and separation, and sox scandals is a deterrent.In this view ! am upheld by .seme of the strongest leaders of thought along these lines in the old country.Judges and King\u2019s Proctors hold this view with me.\u2018Is it not reasonable to believe that, if 4 man knows his conduct may be exposed to public gaze and the story of his infidelity given to the world, he will think mere seriously about the consequences of bis comduct before embarking om illicit enterprises in the domain of love?1 know many a case in Montreal where a man is living straight and clean to-day, because be is .\u2018afraid of THE AXE and the distasteful publieity ke would receive if his case were ever before the courts.And 1 know of men who have gone back to their wives and families, giving up their liasons with \u201ckept women\u201d, because something we have \"said hag appealed to their better nature and, because they also know THE AXE could not be persuaded or induced to keep silent.And, believe me, I would rather prevent than cure.xx % \u2019 Some people have said THE AXE is not fit for young people to read.Well, I believe in arming our young pepole with knowledge of the facta of life.They know far more than their parents realise about life and its varied aspects.If they grow up ignorant .of life\u2019s facts and temptations, if the girls of to-day are like their mothers and grand.mbthers were ready to accept any men no matter how great a Toué he may have been, there is little hope for the race.But if the principle of a single standard of morals for both sexes alike can be universally adopted there is a golden age dawning for the human family.The truth sbout THE AXE is that it is 80 clean that evil-minded people find it x.1 DHGHMRNA Ph, 1088 erty bm eR] AXEL GREASE \u201cTo Lubricate the Wheels of Life\" The \u201cL* le (or lauzbien L le the first thing ln lle There are ny aubjesis à laughter hervaboutst\u2014 - \u201c Mederic Muttin's deapertte oétoris te \u2018vome bouk* uscorting him: sell the great ondanslonist asd the profound ecunomist, .The 8tar's defence of Pretection ahd incidental castigation of Lion Georges vver whem it slobbered no Sicheningly whoa be Was here recent Freddy Yorstea's editorial | The Standard, ' The hose of the movie censors.The plous indignation of \u201cSociety the truth about It Lanctot defending the Province of Quebec, in London | En \"8.M.P.\"'s review of \u201cThe Glagham Girt\u201c, Pp Three great events which took place ycsterday, December 6th:\u2014 General Wlection in Great Britain.Mackenzie King's \u201cWelcome Home\u201d In Montreal \u2019 Birthday of the Editor of THE AXE And the greatest of these ia\u2019 \u2014 ?We said, editor, not head -hitter: The National Rallways are safe; we understand they have taken four pages in The Standard Christmas Number.The nine millions of people who buy The Standard (ABC.Audit) will al?travel by National now, which may be what Athoistan wants Who is the most obliging man in Montreal?Lord Atholstam He gives you whatever news you preter.If you doa't find what you waat in The Star ask for it In The Standard.The Star, December lat.\u201cApti-Tory Landslide Looms as real Pomsidility.\u201d The Standard, December 1st.\u201cPredict Baldwin wins.Glve Tories lead of 58; Liberals second.\u201d Or to take another examples: \u2014 The Star, December 1st\u2014 \u201cBaldwin turns quits an orator.\u201d The Standard, December 1st:\u2014 \u201cPremier Stanley Baldwin, Coaservative, not only is not an impressive spoaker™, ete.You pays your money and you takes your choice.The efforts of the Montreal Police to stem the wave of crime will be greatly aided by the arrival of \u201cThe Covered Wagon\u201d which, when not inuseat The Palace, will be availe- ble as a Patrol Wagon, according to George Rotsky.conducting an Anti-Jewish campaign.Jerusalem Boulevard prefers the comedies of Tizoune.Fellow has been writing THE AXE offering to act as Santa Claus on Christmas morning.NO!

luxury tax it only affecte the well-to-do- In its relation to the most of us it is a tax upon necessities, amusement being a necemity and not à luxury.So far as it a tox for charitable purposes, it is unnecessary.Montreal hae just given $450,000 to the federated charities, it is contributing millions of dollars in addition to the various hospitals sad other charitable wocieties.Every Saturday is a tag day for something or other, while through churches and fraternal organisations Montreal is always giving.True, the poor don's always got what is given, but this holde true of the amusement tax as of any other form of charitable giving.: The rush and strain of life under modern conditions are such that the people must have amusement, If they don\u2019t they will go mad, of take to drink, or find refuge in dope.A theatre is a dvic institution because it acts ae à counter-attraction to evil forms of desire.It is also à part of our culture.European countries in which the Theatre has reach.od ite highest form of development have the finest culture, From every point of view the Theatre should be free from irksome hindrances, such as the amusement tax.In fact, the easier of access We make it the less crime, despondency and delinquency there will be.Now that the Pro vincial Legislature is about to open would be a good tiime to take the matter up with the powers-that-be and

Federal Government of a couple of months ago when \u201cThe Whisper of Death\u201d articles were syndicated throughout Canada, only to become a damp squib, are becoming recognisable.On Tuesday of this week, The Star quoted an editorial from a New York paper in which Sir Arthur Currie was likened to Roosevelt and it was plainly stated that he was \u201cabout to control the destinies of the party which once followed Sir John Macdonald to victory\u201d.The Star adds emphasis to this statement by saying in its headlines: \u201cAs Opposition Leader or Premier would climax Sterling Career\u201d, which, of course, is not just what the New York Evening Telegram said, in its editorial in question, That\u2019s Atholstan\u2019s view.: The little game is exposed.Meighen is to be deposed.Remember the scathing attack on the present Conservative leader commented on in with this latest announcement regarding Currie, and you have it, Meighen won't truckle to the Atholstans gnd their kind.Currie has risen from lowly levels to high positions largely by associating with those richer and higher-placed than himself.He has ability, but his outstanding talent is that he has always known how to attach himself to those who could gdvance his personal aims and ambitions.This is quite a Iaudable characteristic.Other great men have had it.But Canada does not need a man who will play up to Atholstan, and Shaughnessy and saved it for themselves, Nor does it require any embryo Mussolinis or the Mussolini spirit.Let Sir Arthur attend to McGill.The soldier in intelligences of the McGill campus, - : .these columns last week, and couple these constant belittlings of Meighen | Eddy Beatty and that crowd, the saviours of Canada who have largely politics is apt to talk in the language of

purpose.C, W.Lindsay gave Five Hundred Dollars and Mr, Layton is credited with the same amount, Lord Strathcona said that when the public had subscribed ninety thousand dollars le would give the last ten thousand dollars, which he did in 1910.\u2018Now, who was the founder\u2014David .Brown, .Mr.Layton, or Lord Strathcona?When the Institution was -erected it was supposed to be for the bem- efit of

\u2018for the.National Instituto to come in and take care of the blind of this proy- ince, then we feel sure the Government will find the money necessary for education, industry, etc, and will see
