broad Canada was the condition in
Quebec, where an uncertain proportion
of the 100000 French Canadians were
opposed to participation In this war, as
they were in the last. Even though
Premier King has promised that there
will be no CONSUMPTION without submis-
sion of the subject to the people, Quebec
called provincial election which, over
whelmingly demonstrated in its outcome
that the French Canadian citizens are
loyal to the Dominion and to the En-
pire. The bogy Of separatist move
ment in Quebec has been definitely
squelched, to the vast relief Of the whole
Dominion.
There really are several Canadas that
make up this immense nation with only
10000 900 or II 900 900 inhabitants. There
is the far West, with many new settlers
from everywhere, including goodly pro-
portion Of Americans. This IS the most
"liberal'-critics would say RADICAL
section Of the country. In Alberta they
have been trying out the social credit"
idea. a variant of Californias "ham-and-
eggs scheme. To the extreme East, in
the maritime provinces, are old British
settlers, whose economic plight is the
worst in the Dominion. In Quebec are
the French Canadians, fertile, force
full folk who are often a headache to
the British partisans. In vast Ontario,
the heart Of Canada, there are descend
ants Of the American Tories who fed
to Canada during the Revolutionary
War, and who call themselves United
Empire toyalists." In the rural regions,
where know them, these people, mostly
from Connecticut. retain the traditional
Yankee traits more definitely than the
present-day New Englanders. Finer
neighbors one could not have. The real
Canada is in the hinterland; the cities
along the st. Lawrence show at every
turn the American influence.
United in Loyalty.
All Of these varied elements have
united in active loyalty to the Dominion
government and to the British Empire
and to active participation in the war.
They are offering their men freely; but
more important, they are preparing, on
large scale, to be the industrial source
Of supplies for the British. Even be-
fore war was declared, factories were
made ready for the production Of NUM-
tions, airplanes and all the varied sup
plies needed by q nation at war.
1t has been suggested in print that.
in case Of disaster to British arms, the
capital Of the Empire would be trans
ferred to Ottawa. This fanciful think
ing indicates the important place of
Canada in the imperial scheme. in peace
and In war.

out special government permission in
scribed on the envelope. The American
dollar has been pegged at a premium OF
10 per cent. Many New York brokerage
firms have closed their Canadian
branches, because of the impossibility of
carrying on across the border. Cana
dian business houses in general are up
in the air, because Of the many new
regulations, which make uncertain all
imports and exports. The war has en-
tered into the life of the nation, though
the outward scene is but little changed.
Censorship of mails, press and radio
was quickly established after the dec
laration of war. 1t is getting into its
stride with efficiency; although it is
really futile in the realm of broadcast
ing, for most of the big American radio
stations are heard in Canada. The first
time I turned on our set in our remote
camp in the woods, I recognized the
voice OF Roland S. Morris, who was max
ing an address over WCAU. His words
could have been no clearer had been
sitting beside him in his Office in Phlia-
delphia. During the summer we often
heard stations from the deep South and
the far West. So Canadians receive un-
censored radio news whenever they
please.

To Canadians, the war seems clear
and simple obligation. They cannot un-
derstand why it is not equally so In the
United States. My most impressive ex-
perience in Canada during these recent

States come into the WARP"
Editors, professional men, merchants,

I found no recognition anywhere of
the incongruity of the unprecedented
situation created by Americas promise
to go to the aid of Canada If attacked.
Canada is at war, and is doing her
utmost to attack Germany; but America
is neutral in the European war. Never
theless, she is engaged to fight should
Germany retaliate against Canada's
wartime activities! Let us hope that
the quixotic situation will never come
to an issue.

He said the Senate's Republican

OF the Oregonian's close friends and

Herbert Hoover, who had tele-
graphed his congratulations to Mr.
Willkie shortly after midnight, left
this convention city In midmorning
and apparently did not participate
in the vice presidential talk. The
former President would make no
further comment on the outcome
OF the convention.
Several of those most prominently
mentioned for the vice presidency
had removed themselves from the

Cleorcut Division Between

Democratic National Chairman
Farley said today this was the cues.
ton posed the Nation ia the light of
Wendell WILKES nomination by the
Republicans to be President:
What sets of forces, economic
and social, are to conduct our Gov
ernment - the historic American
processes or some new and some
what foreign methods of concen-
trated control?"
Speaker Bankhead, who will be
keynote speaker at the Democratic
Convention next month, had this
comment:
THE nomination of Mr.. Willkie
provides clear-cut division between
the two major parties. If the voters
wish to place the executive in the
control of forces which are some
what foreign to our usual American
way of life, and which win doubt
less largely dominate the actions of
the Republican nominee, they have
a constitutional right to do so in
November"
Secretary of the Interior Ickes
predicted that President Roosevelt
will be renominated and reelected
in a prepared statement comment
ing on the nomination of Mr.. WILL
kie.
Mr.. Ickes described the Repub-
hcan candidate as a man with no
experience except as a clever LAWYER
and successful public utility hold
ing company representative, and
declared that "the people at this
gravest crisis since we became a Ma
ton will choose the courage and
wisdom of President Roosevelt"
Wiiikie to Grow Weaker, He Saws.
Two months ago Mr.. Dewey
seemed to be the glamorous and
dazzling hope of the Republican
party" Mr.. Ickes said. To-day, Mr..
Willkie is.
The difference between Thomas
E. Dewey and Wendell WiIIkie is
the difference between a pinwheel
and skyrocket.
Pointing out that following the.
Illinois and Wisconsin primaries he
predicted that Mr.. Dewey was at
the top of his strength at that time
and would grow weaker as the days
passed, Mr.. Ickes said, Il make the
same prediction today with respect
to Mr. Willkie."
