Canada may settle north as population grows toward eighty million
Prof. Gilbert Taylor of the University of Toronto warns only 700,000 square miles of Canada are sparsely populated and predicts settlement will chiefly advance along the Mackenzie River basin and the St Lawrence fringe, while Arctic lands remain largely unused despite air-route significance. The piece contrasts Arctic settlement with Siberia plans and cites Malcolm W. Bingay critiquing cultural thought trends in the Detroit Free Press.

Dr EW McHenry of Toronto urged training children in healthful living to improve food habits and fight malnutrition amid indifference and ignorance.
