"Differences of opinion caused by various national responsibilities and viewpoints should not stop the search for a practical expression of the deep spirit of longing of all the people of all the nations for a permanent world peace. "When both Eden and Stalin seem to appreciate this necessity, I am encouraged to believe that the recent flurry is indeed proving constructive." Mr.

The near 16 million pounds was worth $1,587,225 and comprised 1,606,770 pounds of toilet soap and 14,263,943 pounds of all other kinds of soaps. The Canada Year Book for 1945 reports, on the last full statistical year available In 1942. that soap production ran 233,380,918 pounds, worth Exports, this year of 16 million pounds are for only seven months, and recently soap production has fallen due to the strike-shortage of soda ash and the tight supply position of fats and oils. The point of soap exports was raised by reports from Newfoundland that store shelves in St. John's were loaded with all the popular brands of Canadian cleansers.

Newfoundland's share of Canada's soap exports, reported the BOreau, had run 1,394,449 poundk, worth $142,831. It sounded like a lot of soap, agreed an executive of the Prices Board who has a hand in setting export quotas, but Newfoundland's seven-month allocation of Canadian soap "wouldn't keep the city of Ottawa clean" over the same period. Because of its fat and oil content, distribution of soap, like that of sugar, comes under the control of the Combined Food Board, and export quotas in relation to domestic needs are fixed as between Canada and the United States.
