concluded soon, following the return of Alvary Guscoigne from Madrid to Tangier where he has been Consul General since Aug.23.1939.Mr.Gascoigne went to Madrid recently in order to assist Sir Samuel Hoare in the discussions hich followed the latest Span- h encroachments on the International character of the T'an- gier zone which included ousting various officials of the Ju ternational Commission and their replacement by Epubiurds frou Spanish Morocco.No details are available yet regarding the nuture of the program.But it is known that Britain, while still reserving all the rights which have been progres.nively whittled away by Spain during the war, has no desire to disturb Spanish control at present provided there Is no inter ference with the rights of Brit- 1sh residents.These include, in particular, legal safeguards secured to them under the inter- rational regime respecting personal liberty, the right to engage In business and financial transactions and freedom from being arbitrarily subjected to Spanish laws which have been substituted for those in force before disruption of the international regime It 15 assumed Britain has tusk- } ed for definite assurances on these points and also for an uu- derstanding that the Tangier zone will not be fortitied.In view of the fact that Spain Is very anxious for British help In obtaining urgent supplies of wheat from Canada and the Argentine, it fis further assumed that Spaln has readily acquiesced.It is less certaln, however, that any such agreement will ever be published.Britain has, hitherto, taken the line that the Spanish \u2018actions in Tangler have all been {llegal, and it is somewhat diffi- \u2018cult to draft a binding legal agreement in such circumstances.i Bven If the modus vivendi is 1 not committed to paper, its existence, or rather its ubservance, is expected to have an important - effect on Anglo-Saxon relations.Evidence from Spain all points to widespread disillusionment with the Axis, particularly with tha Italian end of it.Apart, perhaps, from Foreign Minister Ramon Serrano Suner himself, who paid a brief visit to Barcelona where he spoke of Spain's need for bread, the great majority of highly-placed Spanlards are understood to be strongly against any action calculated to bring Spain into the war and it [a felt they would resist to the utmost Axis pressure to bring them in.If this 1s true, it is bound to ease Anglo-Spanish tension provided there are no sacroatimonis | F at Tungier.Nir, Gascoigne, whoze Intimate knowledge cf conditions in tlhe international settlement has been at Sir Samuel's diaposul during the talks, is an Etonian.He served in the army during the World War, and juined tbe Foreign Office as a temporary cierk In 1919 hefng employed In that capacity in Budapest and Paris, He eu- tered the diplomatic service on a permanent basis Jun.1, 1822.Since then he has held posts in Madrid, P'ek'ng.Tokyo, Oslo Teheran, cud Budapest, where he was several times Charge d'Affaires.In Tangier he holdr the post of (Consul (General, which In à settlemeni, Is equiva lent to Minister, COMMISSIONER WILL SPEAK AT SUNDAY SERIES One of the outstanding events | in

tradition by lifting the ban on Sunday shows in theatres and music halls.Sunday in pre-war Britain, however, was pleasant compared with that of three and a halt centuries ago.In one Scottish.clty, for instance, the following restrictlons were enforced in addition to the usual regulations forbdding games, shows, ete, etc.no water was to be drawn from the public wells after the first bell to forenoon sermons; Sunday milk-sellers ran the risk of being dropped on by a secret and watchful committee; swearers were fined 12 peuce when detected; cattle had to be kept indoors on Sunday; and house-to-house searches for church absentees were unpleasantly common.Failure to observe these rules resulted in fines, imprisonment on a bread-and- water diet, and public penance fn the stocks on market-days or a publie ducking in the river by means of a specially constructed pulley, One of the best ways to realize the enormous strides made in the air offensive during the Inst quarter of a century is to glance over the figures for the air raids on Great Dritain in the war of 1014-1018.Commencing in 1016, the Germans launched n total of 111 attacks against Britain, 32 by Zeppelins and 59 by acroplanes.The casualties resulting from these raids were 1413 persons killed and 3208 persons injured, London suffering more than half of these totals with 670 per sons killed and 1962 persons injured.Tho Zeppelins reached Lontion 13 times and the aero planes 19 times.These figures for a three-year onslaught during the last war would probably be surpassed in a week or less nowadays, and we have not considered the vast differs cence in the extent and charac ter of the property damage in this war compared with the last.It Is to be hoped that Canadians will meet thelr Income Tax obligations with the same cheer ful nonchalance as did Theodore Hook, the English humorist.Tt is related that he was entertaining a party with a comic song when à servant interrupted him and said, \u2018Please, sir, here's Mr.Winter, the tax-gatherer; he says he has called for taxes.\u201d Hook vefused to bo put out of humor, however, and immedigtely gave off the following extempore stanza: \u201cHere comes Mr.Winter, collector of taxes; 1'd advise you to pay him whatever he axes.Excuses won't do.he stands no sort of flummery; Though inter his name is.his presence is summary!\u201d Prophecy nowadays {is very precarious and uncertain, but the forecasts of some writers in the past have been realised with quite astonishing accuracy.H.G.Wells, for instance, gave an almoat flawless description of modern tanks and tank warfare in a short story entitled \u2018The Land Ironclads.\u201d which was puh- lished in December, 1903.The tank, it will be recollected, first came into being on the Somme during the Great War in 1916.Following the announcement of some discovery, of course, there is always the possibility of searching back over old writings and declaring any likely reference to be lutelligent anticipations.This, however, hardly accounts for Shakespeare's anticipation of Newton's discovery of the law of gravitation in 1685.The following lines are epoken by sCressida in Act JV, Scene 2, of \u201cTroilus and Cressida\u2019 (1609): \u201cBut the strong base and building of my love Is ag the very centre of the earth, Drawing all things to it.\u201d Fully twenty-five years prior to Sir Willlam Harvey's epoch-mak- ing discovery of the circulation of the blood, Shakespeare, in the first scene of the second act of \u201cJulius Caesar,\u201d put these words into the mouth of Brutus, who is addressing his wife: \u201cYou are my true and honour able wife; Ag dear to me as are the ruddy drops .That visit my sad heart.\u201d Sceptics who may incline to rate the foregoing as mere chance illusions will find it difficult to explain away the magnificent forccast of the Suez Canal that appears in the second part of Marlowe's \u201cTam- burlaine the Great,\u201d where, in Act V, Scene 3, are thesc words: \u201cAnd here, not far from Alexandria, Whereat the Tyrrhene and the Red Sea meet, Being distant less than full two liundred leagues, I meant to cut a channel to them both, That man might quickly sail to India.\u201d The following four lines appeared in 1789 in \u201cThe Loves of the Plants,\u201d written by Erasmus Darwin, grandfather of the more celebrated Charles Darwin: \u201cSoon shall thy arm, unconquered steam, afar Drag the slow barge or drive the rapid car: wide-waving wings, panded.bear The flying chariot through the field of air.\u201d The steamboat became a fact in 1807, the automobile in 1890.and the aeroplane in 1911, so that the verse contains an extraordinary triple prophecy.The undernoted Is an extract from the second book of Sir Thomas More's Utopia\u2019: \u201cThe hens do not sit upon the eggs.but by keeping them in a certain equal heat they (the Utopians) bring life into them and hatch them.\u201d Although this \u201chint\u201d appeared in the sixteenth century, soma considerable time was to elapse before it was realized by the modern incubator, Jules Verno's \u201cdreams\u201d have been largely realised and a proportion of H.G.Well's prophe- cles have come true, so that we should do well to pause before we ridicule the anticipations of writers, no matter how strange and fantastic they may seem.Or on ex- The recent flood of opprobrious cablegrams sent by Americans to s Per''n radio station recalls the following very apt epitaph for Hitler, which was suggested by a British naval officer: \u201cPositively my last territorial claim in Europe.\u201d CROSSWORD SOLUTION A THE WESTMOUNT EXAMINER \u201cTHANKS MR.ROOSEVELT\u201d Westmount Children\u2019s Art Centre Will Open It is
