It seems to be the most far-reaching program of social security planning yet to be evolved that British government's plan as enunciated yesterday The program, so far, is formulated along broad lines with details in the, reports we have so far received somewhat meagre. It is evident, nevertheless, that the British government is stepping far forward. What is done in Britain will, no doubt, be emulated in Canada. It would be inconceivable that the Old Country would long remain ahead of us in social legislation although it appears now to be leading the way. It is gratifying to see that even now active steps are being taken to meet a post-war situation which might well have serious economic repercussions for us all. OVEROPTIMISTIC REPORTS . . . Overoptimistic reports from the fighting fronts have confused the news of the past few days. One hour there was a report of the airborne army in Holland being ef f tctively relieved and an hour later announcement that it was cut off and so on. Then there were the reports of the Russians entering both CzechoSlovakiaand Hungary to be followe'd soon after by reports that they were still some miles away from the frontier. The battles have been going so well for us of late that we had become accustomed to nothing but good news. We must expect reverses as well as advances before the conflict is over with the final victory. We must not be too cast down by the bad reports although we should also be realistic. Possibly some of the opinions in regard to an early victory have been premature. There is no reason to believe that the Germans and Japanese enemies may not have plenty of fight in them yet. CONTINUING BLACKLISTS . . . The British and American governments will do well to continue after the war the blacklists of in dividual and firms which collaborated with the Axis, to gain world domination. The iniquitous system of trade cartels, which has been so roundly condemned, is struck at by this decision. It has been generally regarded that these cartels are largely responsible for producing economic conditions leading to war. They should not be allowed to spring up again after this war.

Later in the day he motored to his natlvi Stockton-on-Tees and rode th winner of the first race. Then he raced down to Middlesbrough for a football match he "wouldn't a missed for t'world.

It is understood that at least one American girls' team may enter later. The appointment of referees was left to the executive.

John Bull and Uncle Sam have got together again with their partner Johnnie Canuck. Successful as comrades-in-arms, it is essential that the British Commonwealth and the United States continue to work closely together as partners in peace. On this co-operation depends to a large cx-tnt the future security of the world. In linking the two great partners-England and the United States Canada has a vital role.

The year previous at Ayr his mount, Oh Lummy, fell on him during a race. Joe wanted to rldd iln the next race but was per-I sudaded not to because of serious injuries. At Stockton in 1931, Joe was kicked when his horse was in a collision with three others. Ho remounted, finished the course and rode In two more races that day all the while bleeding pro fusely. A specialist who was ask jed to examine him after the col-lision said: "What, Is he still alive?" At the height of his career Joe , was first Jockey to Lord Olanely.
