Roosevelt "hopes" but does not "predict" that the war will be over in 1944 with a victory for our side. It is to be-noted that he does not even along the fronts coupled with statistical data as to the vast amount of booty captured in victories of which not I even the imaginative officials of D.N.B. can hope to keep the German people in ignorance for long. The fact that Berlin has admitted severe reverses bears witness to the gradual realization on the part of the German high command that the initiative which the Russians have seized is a much more dangerous threat to the whole system of Nazi defence than was the less ambitious Soviet counter-offensive in the early winter of 1941. As matters stand now, Hitler's plan to rest his legions, in preparation for renewed attacks on the Soviet line next spring, is already frustrated. More important still is the imposing evidence that the momentum of the Russian advance not only is not slackening but is actually, increasing. D.N.B. may soon have to prepare the German people for more bad news. Verily has the New Year begun auspiciously for the valiant Soviet armies another good argument, by the way, for great support for the Canadian Aid to Russia Fund. Keeping Guard Up . . . Col. R. J.

Roosevelt, like Churchill, is inclined to be quite realistic and fact-facing when talking about the war and the outlook. It is probably just as well for us that they are. They appear to be of the opinion that it is better to face the issues squarely instead of glossing them over and being further let down by things not turning' out as pleasantly as we had had hoped for. Roosevelt and Churchill are both convinced now beyond peradventure that victory will be ours but they are not disposed to minimize the trials and tribulations we may have to bear before the great day comes when peace on our terms shall be accomplished. stand. Sweet face that I have loved; pallid hand, These limbs are scraps of life-and spiritless, Remaining substance, waster come liness, The soul lives on In deathless angel's1 care, Who waft it up a winding; golden stair And bear It onward, through the mystic Gate, Beyond the slumbrous Halls to God's estate. Thus, Life Is fled to- blind Infinity, Now Dust to Dust and Immortality. His verse recalls to my mind a little phrase that gave me endless comfort during an unhapplness of the last war. I ran. across it by accident and found it had much truth and wisdom in it..

Pvi'Q T!nMnJA,R'P' well as elsewhere, since the Allied position on the various war fronts, including the Pacific, has been somewhat improved, there has been a tendency to slacken up and lose interest in the matter of A.R.P. Dr. Manion, however, warns that we may be in even greater risk of danger as the enemy becomes more desperate and that his very desperation may cause him to strike an unexpected blow. Military men, evidently, are by no means satisfied that the risk of attack on this coast is passed. We must agree with Col. Manion and the others that, even though things may be looking much better for our side than they did, we should not let down our guard but should be continuing to perfect and exercise our defensive measures, civilian as well as military. It will be plenty of time to think of giving the defences a holiday after the final peace has been signed. A Beauty Parade . . .

AND RESERVE Editor; Dally News: t Recruiting begins-tonight for1 the creation oi a local macnine- gun unit and I would like to make a few observations, and' correct some wrong impressions which have been brought to my notice: In the first place, the government has no intention of scrapping civilian protection- to replace- it with a civilian offensive defence unit. It is not true- that a man can serve both units: If enemy landing, attempts are-made, the manoeuvre will most certainly be preceded-by heavy bombing which bombing-will be maintained until the' enemy's objective-is attained or defeated.
