Saturday, November 4, 1941 EDITORIAL On Three Fronts . . . Allied armies on the Western Front are preparing to fight it out on that line if it takes all winter. Allied leaders and peoples must reckon with the pos- j sibility of weeks of stalemate. Estimates on the duration of the war have been lengthened because of the resistance the Nazis have marshalled against our forces. But the resistance has the desperation of a stand that is seen by those making it as all but hopeless. The Nazis are reported as impressing the under-age, the over-age and the physically unfit into military service. German authorities, moreover, are taking measures to build up guerilla forces for warfare within Germany as quickly as possible, as if they expected the worst soon, here again extending the age limits in both directions.. ',.. The interregnum on the Western Front has permitted attention to centre once more on Russian successes against the Nazis. So long as progress against the West Wall remains unspectacular, the momentum of the Russian armies will be watched with great interest in all Allied countries, particularly advances of the Allied forces in the Balkans. These threaten Budapest, and if Budapest proves to be another Aachen or, as the Germans like to predict, a Stalingrad-in-reverse the Red Army can swing west to cross the Danube and attack the Nazis near Lake Balaton. A break-through here would open a road to Vienna. The importance of tke RuslanTdriVesim Czechoslovakia and Transylvajbia lies inHhe!actTthat.the Reich may be more opeft to decisive invasion on the Balkan front than on either the Western or Eastern fronts. Allied pressure on the West Wall and continuing Allied advances from the Balkans might evoke the unconditional "Kamerad" necessary to end the war in Europe. New Fishermen's Floats . . . The prospect of early construction of the new fishermen's floats along the west end of the Prince Rupert waterfront is gratifying. With the likelihood of the war ending within the next year or so and industries starting to return to normalcy, Prince Rupert may well think about a stabilizing of the fishing business which Vtpavbeeiy-ihoved aground a good deal at Prince Rupert smcettre war started. The first thing that must be done to get the fishing industry re-established here is the provision of floats to accommodate the fleet some of which had to leave here ostensibly because there was no float accommodation for them. Even the present project may not completely meet the requirements but it is at least a start which has been deferred overly long. It may be that fishing will once again be our principal industry and it is well that we should encourage it. If Canadians had a choosing in the United States presidential election we would say that President Roosevelt would be re-elected b.y a ninety per cent vote. But there is the old saying about the prophet in his own country and, from what we can gather at this distance, there may be some doubt about the outcome. However, if we were guessing, we would hazard that F.D.R. will come through for a fourth term. Certainly we on this side of the line are pulling ui Him, luiuwing mm 10 a tried and true friend, whereas Thomas E. Dewey is an unknown factor except for having been a good district attorney at some time m his career and more recently a governor of New York who has not particularly distinguissed himself. We do not think the people of the United States, even though the Republicans have been holding out blandishments, will be disposed to take the chance of a change at this critical time. Franklin Delano Roosevelt will still be president of the United States after the voting next Tuesday, we ,would speculate. Jack Miner ... The .forty-year-long career of a world famous naturalist ended yesterday when 78-year-old Jack Miner died at his home in Kingsville Ontario the town made famous as one of the first bird sanctuaries on the continent. Miner took as his particular pet the Canada goose, but he made a great contribution to the advancement of knowledge of the habits of 11 wild fowl. He originated the idea of protecting, feeding, aad conserving wild bird life in a sanctuary which became a 'shrine for bird lovers everywhere in North America. He was indeed a unique figure in Canadian life.
