CANADA-OUR NEIGHBOR
Camadat first to dodara mr or Japan, wiO Iwtf;
in tarries for common canto
_By MARTIN l_ RETRY _______
nPHE dtitisld •( the United
* State# sod the Dominion of
Canada are linked more cloid;
thu mr Mon In the histories of
those comparatively young. English
spooking, neighboring democracies.
It didn't take oar entry Into the
war to further cement the bonds of
frtondshlp bat the results of the
two nations standing side by side
against a common enemy Is bound
to create a greater understanding
of the military, economic and In-
dustrial problems of each by the
other.
This copespondent was in Tor
onto when that despicable attack
was launched on Hawaii by the
conniving Japanese government
and Its bloodthirsty military pup
pets. The entire civilised world was
stunned by the unpardonable fren-
sied assault and only a few hours
elapsed before Canada declared
war against Japan. The nest day.
in Ottawa, it was reported that of-
ficial sanction would release any
of the Americans in the Canadian
services who wished to return to
the United States to Join the fight
log forces. However, after some
deliberation. It was deemed advis-
able to keep the Americans as the
Government felt that they could
serve the common cause as effec-
tively in the Canadian forces, to
which they had become accus-
tomed, as at home. If It is shown
that anyone from the United States
can be of better value by returning
to this country permission would
probably be granted, it was said.
At present approximately 10,000
Americans are In the Canadian ac-
tive forces and about ten per cent
of the air crews trained or in train-
ing for the Royal Canadian Air
Force are from this side of the
border. The actual number is a
military secret but It is considered
substantial. The American volun-
teers have received a training in
line with modern requirements for
warfare under any and all condi-
tions. Inasmuch as the British.
Canadian and United States gov-
ernments are cooperating and will
wort in closer harmony in the fu-
ture, now that the three are allied,
the official opinion was that no shift
of personnel would be necessary in
the defense of this continent.
The majority of the American
boys In Canadian uniforms are in
Ontario. When the war is over they
will return with a mature under-
standing of our neighbors about
whom more is becoming known to
the average American every year
through the large number of visi-
tors who go to the Dominion dur-
ing the summer. Last year Ontario
was the chief center of attraction
for Americana, a much larger num-
ber entering the Province than dur-
ing the previous year.
During 1941 It Is expected that
all records for Americans crossing
the border will be smashed. Dur-
ing the last war there was a tre-
mendous Interchange of visitors
but there are factors In this war
that will probably tend to Increase
the flow northward. Passenger lin-
ers will not be permitted to operate
cruises on either coast, railroad
travel will be curtailed because of
cross country troop movements,
airline service will be restricted
and visitors will ^ot be welcomed
by the west coastoecause of com-
plications with possible air raids.
So wherever there is no conflict
with the prosecution of the war the
American who loves to move about
in his car will start to explore the
vast areas of the United States and
Canada, and many will head for
the delightful, quiet and secluded
lakes and resorts of Ontario. .
Canada's great problem of foreign -
exchange Is slowly being solved
through general recognition In the
United States of Its complexities.
In this connection the tourist plays
an important part, Recently the
Bureau of Statistics tn Ottawa list-
ed the four principal factors Influ-
encing Canada's supply of foreign
exchange as follows:
1. Importation of surplus prod-
ucts from the United States, par-
ticularly iron and ateel. Canada's
commodity trade with ua, in spite
of increased exports of newsprint
and base metals, will probably
show an unfavorable balance of "
$400,000,000 for the calendar year.
2. Canadian exports of gold to the
United States will probably amount
to $200,000,000 this year.
2. Efforts have been made to at-
tract the American tourist and it
was hoped to obtain from this
source some $150,000,000 In United
States currency. “In this case,” says
the report, “the sum of the re-
ceipts of the export of gold and the
tourist trade would offset by far
the greater part of the unfavorable
balance in commodity trade.”
4. Dividend and interest payments
on American Investments amounted
to about $260,000,000 In 1940. About
the same sum is expected this year.
"They are not offset by any con-
siderable asset in ouf trade balance
with the United States," the report
concludes, "and, will, therefore, be
the principal factor in our uet loss
of Ameneen exchange."
