The Vancouver, B. C. Province recently con-| tained the following comment on the significance of today's appropriate celebration in England: June 5, 1930, will be a big day for Can- ada in London. For on that day, states- men, soldiers and sailors of three countries will unite in doing honor to the memory of one of Canada's greatest heroes—Wolfe, conqueror of Quebec In the afternoon the Marquis de Mont- calm—descendant~ of -the gallant French de- fender of Quebec, whom Wolfe vanquished —will unveil at Greenwich the great bronze statue which is a gift from Canadian sub- scribers to England. The ceremony itself will lack nothing in picturesqueness—for the site is a magnificent one—while the pres- ence of members of the families of both Wolfe and Montcalm will add to the historic significance of the occasion Club will distinguished That night the Canada tertain in London the most company which has ever graced its board. The Duke of Connaught will be present, the Prime Ministers of England and France, former Governors-General of Canada or their descendants, as well as the Marquis de Montcalm and other distinguished Frenchmen, Arrangements for the function at Green- wich are already far advanced, under the direction of the Wolfe Memorial Commit- which consists of Sir Campbell Stuart, . G. C. Camble and Mr. G. C. Cassels. The Imperial Press Conference will have begun on June 1, and advantage will be taken of this fact to include all the rep- resentatives of the press of the Empire among the company at the unveiling cere- mony. They will travel from Westminster Bridge to Greenwich by special steamer. At the landing they will be met by the Mayor and corporation of the ancient Borough of Greenwich, and will be escorted to the site of the memorial at the end of Blackheath Avenue, overlooking Greenwich Park and the River Thames. The route from the landing stage will be lined by naval ratings. At the memorial will be Committee, the Marquis de representative of the the Memorial Montcalm, a Canadian Government and oth dignitaries. Following the un- veiling ceremony the Mayor of Greenwich will be host at a reception in the Royal Naval Building, at which a very large com- pany will be present The dinner of the Canada Club that night will be a gala occa 1, at which the Prime Ministers of Engla and France will both speak, while Col. J. H. Woods, President of the Canac section of the Empire Press Union, will reply to one of the toasts.

For a long time |we accepted the common explanation that a $2 bill iis so easy mistaken for a $1 bill that it may be paid out as such, but after careful examination of the various bills we conclude that this explanation is a little weak.

(New York Times.) Emphatically in the American tradition is the case of George W. Joseph, attorney, of Portland, Ore, who now seems certain to be the next Gov- ernor. Recommended for disbarment by the State two of its members, Joseph determined to seek vindication by entering the Republican primaries.| He seems to have beaten the incumbent Governor by an impressive plurality. American good-nature, to which even our severest critics bear ungrudging testimony, is seldom so conspicuous as in the case of a public man appealing to the ballot-box for a vindication. Quite irres- to do so until the polls close. If a politician has| got into trouble with the law to the extent of serv-| ing a jail sentence, it seems to be the least one can do to elect him Mayor of his home city by a| thumping majority. If he has been impeached and | removed from the office of Governor of the State, one owes him the vindication of electing his wife as Governor. Good-nature plus a peculiar moral-political phil- osophy has brought it about that the man who went to jail because “he did it for a friend” actually has a larger claim on us than the man who never went to jail for anything. The -man| who got into trouble for the sake of the wife and the kiddies has a stronger pull on our sympathies thah the man who supports the little woman and the kiddies by perfectly respectable methods, When those 280-pound, $900 airplanes are put on the market, the Sunday drivers, instead of bumping into you, will be falling all over you. —(Dayton, Ohio, News.)
