Sobering
fact
which
may
be
(i.V.::ted
from
recently
published
.liny
casualty
figures
for
the
European
theatre
is
that
history
does
repeat
itself.
These
statistics
reveal
that
the
percentage
of
total
casualties
sustained
by
the
infantry
in
bj)th
World
Wars
varied
only
a
fraction
of
one
percent.
-
In
World
War
I
the
losses
of
the
infantry
amounted
to
75.2
percent,
in
World
War
II,
75.02
percent.
Thus
despite
the
vastly
expanded
role
of
mechanization
and
air
power,
the
inescapable
fact
remains
that
the
brunt
of
battle
is
still
borne
by
the
infantryman
whether
he
slogs
along
011
foot
or
drops
from
a
glider
plane.
;;;
Though
armed
with
a
multiplicity
of
new
weapons
ranging
from
the
M-l
Garand
to
the
latest
type
tank-busting
bazooka,
the
infantry
soldier's
task
is
still
fundamentally
the
same
as
it
has
been
since
organized
tvarfare
began,
namely
to
seek
out
$nd
come
to
grips
with
his
foe.
No
one
realizes
better
than
the
infantry
pnWr
his
dependence
on
adequate
artillery,
armored
forces,
and
air
power.,
Yet,
time
and
time
again
positions
which
had
been
bombed
and
shelled
to
rubble
could
be
taken
only
after
the
most
desperate
kind
of

fighting.

Britain's
Food
to
Europe
.
.
.
With
deficiencies
appearing
on
the
world
balance
sheet
for
ajmost
all
principal
foods,
the
urgency
of
the
food
situation
demands
attention
particularly
in
Canada
which
is
in
such
a
favorable
position
to
help.
The
countries
who
fought
in
the
Allied
cause
have
a
special
claim
to
assistance
while
those
who
fought
against
the
Allies
must
also
receive
aid.
At
the
end
of
the
war,
Britain
finds
herself
rather
worse
off
in
many
respects
than
during
hostilities.
In
spite
of
short
rations
at
home
and
the
fact
that
she
must
import
a
great
part
of
the
food
she
consumes,
Britain
has,
for
the
past
two
years,
furnished
quantities
of
food
to
liberated
countries.
These
supplies,
taken
from
wartime
stocks
of
food,
might
well
have
been
used
to
make
welcome
increases
in
domestic
rations.
Instead,
the
government
chose
to
preserve
them
for
Europe.
Now
the
level
of
food
stocks
in
Britain
has
fallen
as
far
as
it
can
be
permitted
to
go
and
still
maintain
a
safe
margin
for
domestic
distribution.
The
bulk
of
provisioning
of
Europe,
therefore,
must
come
from
agricultural
countries,
prepared
to
export
the
foods
critically
needed
in
parts
of
Europe
having
the
worst
winter
in
history.

AN
APPRECIATION
of
NORMAN
WATT
By
T.
D.
PATTULLO
My
first
acquaintance'
with
Norman
was
In
the
early
days
of
the
Yukon
when,
as
a
youth,
we
were
associated
in
the
Gold
Commissioner's
office
of
which
I
was
in
administrate
charge.
On
leaving
the
Gold
Commissioner's
office
Norman
engaged
in
mining
and
was
subsequently
elected
a
Member
of
the
Yukon
Council.
He
was
in
the
First
World
War
and
reV
ceived
punishment
there
from
which,
in
all
these
years,
he
never
fully
recovered.
He
was
badly
gassed
and
I
have
personally
seen
his
overcoat
through
which
bullets
passed
without
fatality
to
him.
On
returning
from,
the
Front,
Norman
became
my
private
secretary
when
I
was
Minister
of
Lands
and
subsequently
was
appointed
Government
Agent,
in
Prince
Rupert.
An
outstanding
quality
of
Norman
was
an
Intense
desire
for
Justice
and
fairness
in
every
avenue
of
endeavour
and
In
all
transactions
between.
Individuals,
and
he
possessed
a
tenacious
physical
and
moral
courage
and
an
ability
to
back
up
what
he
thought
to
be
right.
At
Christmas
time
I:
had
a
card
from
him
in
which
he
said
there
were
some
things
he
would
like
to
say,
but
would
confine
himself
to
Best
Wishes.
Just
before,
learning
of
Norman's
passing
I
had
posted
a
letter
to
him,
expressing
appreciation
of
our
long
association,
governmentally
and
personally,
but
the
letter
would
not
have
reached
him.
But
It
would
not
matter;
he
long
since
knew
how
I
felt
and
how
I
uhderstood
his
worth.
From
my
numerous
visits
to
Prince
Rupert,
I
am;
sure
the
the
people
of
Prince
Rupert
also
appreciated
his
fine
character.

"Now,
