EUROPEAN OUTLOOK
OPINIONS IN AMERICA CANADA ON THE ALERT VANCOUVER, Feb. 10. The American press has been greatly heartened l because of Mr. Neville Chamberlain’s recent hardening against dictators. On the other 'hand, many of the leading papers are frankly pessimistic regarding the outlook. General I-lugh Johnson, who writes syndicated editorials, believed that Herr Hitler, 10 days ago, spoke like a man wiio would rather talk it out than light it out. But several other lyriters for national newspapers took the view
that Herr Hitler is following the pattern of his speech a year ago, which presaged the occupation of Austria and Czechoslovakia. Anyway, Canada does not propose to be caught napping. j , Quietly, the Government has been making a complete survey of 1300 industrial plants. The registration of doctors, engineers, chemists, scientists, and other highly skilled artisans is almost complete.
Experts have now started a survey of the nation’s food resources to see what could be exported to Britain in war time.
