No More heavy immigration mass emigration from great Britain is a thing of the past to be resumed. This is due to the falling birth rate and the actual decline in population that will be seen within a jew years. Great Britain cannot afford to encourage any Large movement of people from the country. In addition the desire to emigrate does not exist to anything like the former extent. These facts were All recognized by the overseas Settle ment Board in its recent report in which it took a very realistic View of the situation. It was doubtless disappointing to those a Tio have been anxious to see a Large emigration from great Britain to the dominions. It is the end of a chapter of Imperial in the opinion of guardian. The settlement Board desires to see the maximum migration to the dominions that is still possible but it does not favor financial assistance by the govern ment to organized schemes of land settlement and development save in very exceptional circumstances and then Only if the Dominion government concerned co operates financially or otherwise. The Board would encourage migration of the individual. But it admits that if there were any Prospect of a rapid and Large expansion of migration the state would have to consider whether its interests were not Paramount. But this Point remarks the guardian is academic for there is not the remotest sign of a revival of mass both because the British people have ceased to be migration minded and be cause the dominions do not wish it. It will be disappointing to Canada As Well As to great Britain if we can look for Only a comparatively Small future immigration of British people. But we shall have to accept the facts. With the present birth rate in great Britain it is Esti mated that the maximum population will be reached by 1950 and that there will be a decrease of by 1970. But if As some consider More probable there is a further decline in the birth rate the maximum of population May be reached in four years and there May be a decrease of by 1970. The overseas settlement Board is of course a body that would Jike to see a Large movement to the dominions and its conclusion regarding the great limitation upon migration cannot be disregarded. To Canada it Means that the period of heavy immigration will remain a notable Page in our history not to be repeated. Between 1910 and 1913 the incoming tide of population ranged from to in those four years immigrants arrived in Canada. In 1913, the number coming bom great Britain was that chapter closed with the War. But it closed for Good. If we cannot now expect any Large immigration from Britain we must look to other preferred countries for population to help in the economic development of the country and i its defence. This is in fact suggested by the overseas settlement Board which says that the migration from Britain should be supplemented by a carefully regulated flow of foreign immigrants of Assimilable preferably those who Are sprung originally from the same Stock As ourselves and who share our Outlook in Many the great reduction in immigration will not mean so much to Canada if there is a corresponding reduction in emigration to the United states. During the years of the heavy influx before the War the exodus to the South was also heavy. The natural increase of population plus the immigration added up to a much greater population than we actually had. There was a Large southward movement. By the same Token while the proportion of our population that is of British origin will not now be much increased by immigration the drastic restriction imposed by the United states on immigration from this country will prevent the loss of a Large number of our native born. This will be a compensating Factor to some extent. In the further development of this country agricultural mining and Industrial with the invaluable Aid of abundant Hydro electric Power there will be much employment which must be available first of All to our own people. There is urgent need of the Benefit of that development at the present time with our army of Idle men. In the e future it should employ All our own people including the natural increase in population. It remains then to be seen How Many additional people Canada can accommodate from the scandinavian countries a few other european countries and the United states. Naturally we think of land settlement but recent investigations show that suitable land is not available for the vast increase in agricultural population that we formerly expected though there is room for a very considerable increase. But if agricultural conditions offered opportunities that were at All favourable Why should not our own people particularly the Farmers sons make use of them it is not to be expected that they will All remain on the land but the proportion that do so will depend largely upon conditions the extent to which the handicaps of agriculture Are relieved and the Chance which the Farmer has to make a fair living. A great Extension of the mining Industry May be confidently expected but it will not do nearly As much in supporting increased population As the expansion of manufacturing Industry with plenty of cheap Power to facilitate it. Why should not the Industrial areas of Canada become in time some of the greatest in the world our own Young people must be trained to meet the demand for skilled workers of All classes so that will be the first and chief beneficiaries of increased Industrial our own people into the available employment of All kinds helping them to fit in must be a part of the policy of preventing unemployment. It Cour gement of immigration. But after it is done i be possible to Welcome a considerable number of right Type from the preferred countries Mcl uding As Many As will come from great Britain. _ -4 a Lively contest just when All attention is concentrated on the Progress of tha crop and political activities in the wintry appeared to be suspended there looms the probability of 3 busing provincial by election in Saskatchewan involving a trial of Thoi the Patterson govern and the .

There is the making of a Nice contest. The King in Paris it would be foolish to imagine that King George s visit to Paris is purely social in its significance. Nothing could be further from the truth. Every move and every gesture his majesty makes in pub Lic is carefully planned for him by his ministers with a View to the production of a certain de sired effect. This is True even of the run of mine functions in eng land the launching of vessels the opening of exhibitions the Provin Cial Tours. It is much More True of his visits abroad. These have first class. Significance. Readers will remember the visit of the present King s Grandfather Edward Vii to Paris More than 30 years ago. It was believed that his majesty was personally responsible for the entente cordiale Between France and Britain. This was an exaggeration though Edward Vii. Was heartily in favor of it. But the Royal visit to Paris at that time was the final proof that the Friendship of France and Britain had advanced to a closer stage. The same holds True of the grandson s visit to Paris now. It follows upon the London conversations Between the French and British prime ministers last Spring which it is believed brought Brit Ain and France More nearly into formal Alliance than Ever before. The Royal visit to Paris there fore is intended to prove both to the people of France and Britain and to the world at Large that there is a close identity of policy Between the two great Western democracies of Europe. It is undoubtedly intended by or. Chamberlain to demonstrate to Germany that this Solidarity exists and on the other hand it is intended to demonstrate elsewhere that or. Chamberlain s european policies Are in line with the desires of France this is important in View of the Strong sentiment held in Many parts of the world that the past trend of British government policy is both unwise and unpopular. Behind the scenes in Paris to Day behind the feasting and the Public excitement discussions Are going on Between the responsible ministers of the two countries. It is no secret that while ultimate Aims Are identical divergences As to method exist. What the world does not know today what it May not know tomorrow is whether the Royal visit to Paris Means a deeper commitment of great Brit Ain on the continent or whether it presages a swing of the French government towards the official British Point of View which shrinks from formal statements of intention under certain envisaged for instance in relation to Czechoslovakia.

If democracy is to con Niue in any it must Assort the Power which belongs to it a great ruler. It must exert that through whatever agencies t establishes whether Monarchio or Republican in the Field of political organization in the Field of economic policy and if need there be in the Field of Mili tary Force. The alternative is the abdication of democracy. Can it be possible that Spengler was right when he told the world some Twenty years ago that the decline of the West was obvious and certain must the coming generation accept a situation in which democracy through feeble Ness Lack of moral courage and want of efficiency becomes the Spectator of its own Ihan the hero of its own for National Unity from the Ottawa journal conservative leaders of the Dif Ferent provinces speaking at the party convention s great banquet on tuesday night came out in equip Cable for Dominion supremacy in confederation and for National Unity. This is a hopeful thing.

True in certain parts of Canada a certain Type of politician with Little background in Canadian his tory and tradition emphasize Divi Sion.
