How Price Ceiling Protects Farmers In a recent radio address dealing with the fixing of the ceiling of prices and the relation of such to inflation, Donald Gordon, Chairman, Wartime Prices an^l Trade Board, said the farmer can play his part by producing as much as he can of the food products most required. Inflation may teem to |>encfit farmers by raising the prices of their products, but in the end, when deflation follows, the farmer faces ruin, he explained. Under the price ceiling, the farmer is protected for the first time against a rise in the price of the goods he must buy and he has a vital concern in making the price ceiling work. Mr. Gordon said “One of tihe dangers of inflation is the fact that it is disguised in fancy terms which make it hard to understand. Don’t bother about the fancy terms. There are just two plain things wa must know. First—what inflation does, so we can realize wfej- we must defeat it. Second, how inflation happens, ro we can know how to fight it. First then, what does inflation do? Why is it bad? Why must we^defeat it at all costs? “This is what inflation does. It puts prices and costs into a spiral that climbs faster and faster. Wage and salaries never catch up. Fixed incomes are left far behind. The cost of living climbs higher and higher, beyond your income. The dollar in your pocket becomes worth less and less. Your savings shrink away. . “Inflation begins as a nation’s war effort. In times of peace, this tremendous- production would mean prsoperity because we would be producing goods for our own use and enjoyment. But the things we are producing to-day are mainly for war and we have less and less of the goods and commodities that we want for ordinary use. What happens is simple enough. On she one hand, in the form of our Gov­ ernment, we begin to bid up to buy the commodities we must have for war. On the other hand, as indiv­ idual citizens, we bid against our Government to buy things for our ordinary use. We thus get into a process of bidding against ourselves, and up go prices and costs to start the inflation spiral. There is only one way to fight it. It is the price ceiling.” 0 The Question of War Debt The problem of war debt and its possible butden on the Canadian economy is the topic of the Monthly Review of The Bank of Nova Scotia for November- December. The Review .describes the burden of the national debt as the degree to which the national'income is diverted by the Government to pay interest to the holders of the debt. It is determined by three main factors.‘The first, of course, is the sizfe pf .the .debt. The second is the rate of interest which, combined with the first, produces the annual* carrying charges. The third is the level of prices and production, i.e. the national income, against which the interest charges should be viewed. “In the last war,” state? the Review, "all three of these factors combined to produce a heavy burden of debt.” Th^. bulk of our war expenditure, like that of other countries, was financed by loans and the re­ sult was a large debt in relation to the scale of the war effort. Moreover, the debt was ■ cohtracted at what to-day would be regarded as high interest rates- fpr Government borrowings—much of it at 5‘4- and more. Added to that was the fact that the debt was accumulated in a period of soaring prices and that the interv : had to be paid in the following years when prices had declined sharply. From before the war to the early twenties, the percentage*of Domin­ ion revenues required to meet interest charges row from a mere 5'.- to over one-third. The proportion which interest charges bore to the national income increased from a small fraction of I'.'r to more than 3'r. In this war, it is no exaggeration to say that the methods of controlling these conditions, and the will to control them, are much more developed-—.and particularly if one thinks in terms of permanent Anglo-American co-operation. It is trtic that we are ’ accumulating debt mor* rapidly tfian in the last war. But in relation to the size of the war effort we are relying less on borrowing and far, more on taxation. In the sphere of interest rate*, there is a marked contrast, for the average rat* on our debt after two years of war is the lowest on record—barely 3’>. . Furthermore, Canada is- making a determined at- to PrtVfnt a repitition of the inflationary price risfe-of.the last war and, though the" United States h» noty i,.- far. hei efforts in this direction may be expected to jnerelHe. ' • . ’■ The Review attempts to provide ah impression of the^ possible increase in the.debt burden assuming that the war were te last for five years. With a vtew to bringing into perspective .the factors which will determine ‘the future debt problem, it makes a var- rrty .of assumptions with regard to the national in­ come, th* scale of war effort, -financial aid to Britain, H level of taxation, th* rate of interest and. the po<-wsr readj ustnsenL OnVtfie basis of theae suMumptrons. it auggeala that the ratio of debtckArgeS to national income following a five-year war might he around 4Si'v, or half again as great aa the 3'i ratio which prevailed just, prior to the war. at BARTLETT'S Henry Ogden Buildrra* Supplies PHONE 26 — HEADQUARTERS FOR — It would unpiy no more than a moderate inereaaa pleay^f reductions in pr.Mzat raw* elected reepected home on BETTER CLOTHING NEXT TO POST OFFICE •vivid hy seven children.

GIFTS FOR MEN INGERSOLL main value is to give proportion to the leading as­ pects of the debt problem. /They demonstrate what must be fairly obvious, that a large increase may be expected in the capital amount of the debt They make clear how important it is that the Government is borrowing at low rates of interest. Most important of all, they indicate how much the future burden of the national debt depends upon a successful readjustment to .peacetime conditions. If the post-war problem can be solved satisfactorily —and it is clear that it calls for a large measure of economic and political co-operation between the British Empire and the United States—then the debt prospect need not worry us unduly. But if this war, like the last, is to be followed by a (violent decline in prices and by a world-wide failure to deal with economic maladjustments, the debt problem will add con‘iderablyi to our difficulties.

Mrs. Malcolm further says in her report: “We would express our ap­ preciation to all .who donated ar­ ticles during the month, mentioning especially the very complete layette from a lady in Beachville, the boys’ suits and overcoats from Percy L. Smith, 28 pounds of honey from the Women’s Institute, Salford; skirts and blouses for our No. 12 unit from Beachville and quilts from Mt. Elgin and. Thamesford. “Cash donations for the purchase of blankets have been received from the following during November: Miss Christopher, Lady Dufferin Chapter and Norswothy Chapter, I. O.D.E.; Welcome Circle King’s Daughters, Mrs. R. R. Noncekivell, Salford; Excelsior Class, Baptist Church; Girls' Guild, St. Paul’s Church; Andrew Donald, Catholic Women’s League, St. James* Even­ ing Guild, Oxford Ladies' Hadas- sah North Oxford Group St. Paul’s Church; Mrs. Stone, Texas; West Oxford United Church Ladies Aid, “Wool and materials are increas­ ingly hard to obtain and we would impress on all who are knitting for the Red Cross to make sure only articles called for. on our quota are -being made, otherwise precious wool and time are used for which we get no credit on our quota. It may be found necessary to refuse to give out wool unless we have some guar­ antee that it will be used for articles on the quota and nothing else,” said Mrs. Malcolm in her re- ' Reading Howard Spring’s great novel I came across the following:. “Three things are immortal. Good and evil and the hope in men’s hearts that evil would be overcome by good.’’ The idea lias sprung up in the minds of many that evil is the nec­ essary concomitant of good in this world. That evil bears the same relationship to good that darkness does to light is true, for both arc negative values of positive qualities. Bring in positive light and we have banished darkness. Bring in posi­ tive good and evil is likewise ban­ ished. No good God is guilty of im­ planting evil of any sort in the world. He, being all good, is incap­ able of such an act, but He, being aware of the fallacies to which man would fall heir, would implant in the heart of man the knowledge of , good, the awareness of evil, so that being desirous of good, he would be armed against evil. That, I think, would be Howard Spring’s idea. He doesn’t, I believe, feel that evil is immortal in the same way that- good is immortal, for were that so, we should be in hopeless case and no amount of striving on our part could ever overcome the things that have made the life of man on- earth so much less happy than the Creator inten'ded it to be. If He had in mind the fact that man grows strong through exertion, He gave him the elements to strive against and the land to work that he might eat. He decreed that man should toil for his living, and had each one done that, being al­ lowed to live only as he did work, putting forth such effort as his natural capacities made possible, we might have been too busy to make wars. But we were busy instead ac­ cumulating. Not satisfied merely to get sufficient for comfort and well-- being, we were striving always for more; for more money meant more power and we yearned to be might­ ily powerful, forgetting that as we commandeered through might; that' as some accumulated too much, others suffered from too little. This, as applied to countries, has been the root cause of wars between nations and this, as applied to man, has been the cause of friction between rocial groups of -men. The hope that evil would be over­ come by good is immortal, as the writer says. We have seen it ro >vercome. We. have seen disease •’anquished in part: we have seen poverty banished, in some degree at least; and we have seen lives, em­ bittered and all wrong, made right by love that was stronger than the jvil engendered by evil. But it is al) ttrrving. Good must always' be eager and forceful, always on the march, as is evil. Otherwise evil persists ind flourishes and instead of being the negative it really is, looms as much more powerful and all-per. vading' than the real positive that good is. Love is immortal. Hope is im­ mortal. But evil is not. It can be quenched by both.

Indeed, it can now bo stated that this grave view of the war’s developments was respon­ sible in some measure for discuss­ ions about accentuation of national mobilization and about an urgent need for greater and greater co-op- qration between Washington and Ottawa in formulating- defence plans df this hemisphere, with the news -Jri the coming weeks certain to stress very important activities in this respect. PRICE REGULATIONS CAUSE FEW COMPLAINTS So far the Wartime Prices and Trade Board’s new regulations have brought forth few complaints and the results are satisfactory. More­ over, it seems now that the problem will not be so much between the consumer and the retailer, but rather as between the manufacturer or wholesaler and the retailer. C.C.F. ADOPTS CONSCRIPTION PLATFORM The Co-operative Commonwealth Federation, acting through its Na­ tional Executive Council, has decid­ ed that conscription of manpower in Canada for overseas service sihould not be enforced before there has been an effective conscription of finance and industry in this country since the most urgent need in Can­ ada to-day is to produce the equip­ ment and materials needed to arm those who are already in the fight­ ing services. WAR COSTS ARE MOUNTING Canada’s war costs are mounting. This is emphasised in' well-informed quarters along Parliament Hill. It is pointed out that Canadian war costs now are much greater than in the last World War. In *1915-1916, the daily cost of maintaining a sol­ dier was S3.44; in 1916-1917, the cost was $3.22, and in 1917-1918, it was $3.77.

CANADA AND THE JAPANESE MENACE While it is admitted that the pol­ icies and actions of th4** ruling clique which control', the army that leads Japan now in close' tie-up with the Berlin-Rome Axis have very gr<-at nuisince values in this war and they cannot .be regarded with any degree of indifference, yet there is an inclination in well-in­ formed circles to ’ look upon thia menace from the war machine of the country of the rising sun with very littfe actual fear, -though for some time now the man-ir.-the,street throughout Canada has been* worried and aroused by the alarm­ ing and sensational headlines op Children DrChases affective In therelief ofCwghs, Colds, Bronchitis, etc. TOY BROOMS PYREX BED LAMPS .SNOW SHOVELS OVENWARE PERCOLATORS If POPPING CORN COFFEjt TEA KETTLES w BOYS' WAGONS VACULA’fORS POCKET KNIVES HHAANNDD SSLLEEIIGGHHSS TABLE c.Ill Ft t f R A7n»S BOYS’ WATCHES FLASHLIGHTS, SKATES and SHOES HOCKEY STICKS TR£E LIGHT SETS t abLe CUTLERY.

It has produced two mental conditions, one being a very poor memory of the past and the other being a very poor know­ ledge of the psychology of their democratic opponents. Japan, ns a world industrial pow­ er, is in a very bad position. She has no vital natural resources, and anyone whtf knows anything about such matters will not hesitate to state that no nation has ever achieved industrial pre-eminence in the world without large resources within its own home territory. She has no iron of sufficient quantities, that the United. States does not fearJapan in the least.The United States' Governmentrecalls that seventeen years ago a Japanese Ambassador, Masanao Hanihara, informed then Secretary of State Charles Hughes that the adoption of legislation checking Japanese immigration would involve the peril “grave consequences.” That note war delivered on April 10, 1924. The legislation was contro­ versial -and a close vote was expect­ ed. z f But when these tactics were employed iby Japan, the United States showed its dislike of black­ mail or threats because the legisla­ tion" was passed by the Congress with a vote of 326-71 on April 12 and it was adopted by the Senate without even the formality of a roll-call on April 16. Furthermore, the United States’ Government recalls that the Japan­ ese war machine was dependent to a large extent prior to this war on American support or aid. In the year prior to this war, three-fourths of the war materials, for which Axis-m naed Japan spent $306,000,- 000‘ a year, came from England and United‘States; with the latter contributing 56% of the total amount as against 8% for both Ger­ many and Italy; Japan depended up- If a .

In other words, the Jap­ anese war machine cannot only be be killed and ruined by the actions of the United States, together with her allies, in actual combat, but “material persuasion”, as well as “moral persuasion”, which enters into the picture of a conflict be­ tween these two countries. Of course, there is no doubt about Canada’s position, which is not merely based on sentimental val­ ues, but rather on the accepted fact that this country is an essential link in the world’s democratic chain which is being welded together and forged into a united front against the totalitarian countries as a war measure as well as the nece-sary framework for .a stable, peaceful, and free postwar world order, where chaos and unrest will be re­ placed by security and contentment. ' While officialdom along Parliament Hill has been cautious in its reac­ tions, even when definite or pre­ cise, towards the Japanese crisis, yet behind the scenes there has ».

Therefore, Japan's jfosition in this respect is desperate and serious be­ cause, if she is to develop in the manner that her propaganda de­ mands, she mu-rt do something which no other nation in history has been able to do. Those seventy mil­ lion people, living in an area only one-twentieth the size of the United States and only one-sixth of that area being arable, may have to achieve their dream of an empire by seizing and controlling the re­ sources of their neighbours on the mainland ahd southeastern islands. She could get iron and coking coal in China; idle could obtain raw mat­ erials in India and Australia; she could use the antimony, tungsen, and tin of Malaysia; she could capi­ talize on the petroleum, rubber, and vegetable oils of the Dutch East In­ dies; she could use the rice of In- do-China. However, in order to achieve these objectives, Japan must b"e able to conquer and to control the' mainland and the great.sea routes in the Pacific and Indian Oceans. Then, and then only, can her dream of an empire become true. .But there are four big obstacles in I becn emPhasi» “P0” Jean’s poor her path of aggression, namely. | m‘?mory. poor knowledge of their China, Russia, United States and the * “PPonents* psychology, and poor British Commonwealth of Nations. I P0’*”110-” as » w^ld industrial andIt is common knowledge that the “*i!i-*" though totalitarian war in China is stalemated. If the i leaders ,n the c<>™try of the rising Japanese rulers’ would read their ' *.un PreUn<l otherwise.—(Reproduc- history books with any degree of I t,on -Prohibited.) avidity, they would know that Japan I may win major battles again and 1 again for years and years, but she | will get nowhere. She cannot drain China's bottomless well. of man­ power. She had tried it before in his­ tory and she failed each time. In- deed Japanese aggression in China was started as far back as 1-592 by the only peasant who ever rose to rule this nation, Hidevoshi Toyo- tomi, and when this leader died, he advised Japan to abandon ail at­ tempts to conquer China. In fact, if ''saving face” was not so vital in the Orient, there is a strong suspicion that Japan would like to call off. the whole campaign in China, with many circumstances corroborating this viewpoint. Then there is the extreme danger that, if Japan moves southward, Russia’s power may be used against her on the rear, ’especially since Japan’* tie-up with the Axu is not favoured by Russia. Moreover, Japan cannot hbpe to achieve anything without a major naval base, such aa Singapore in the IWestern Pacific, and if she move* in that direction, she will hav^-to fight not only the British but also the forces of the United States, Australia, Dutch, and others. There can be no doubt about the outcome of such’ u fight because Japan would be defeated sooner or later. However, it is no secret that the Headline* about Japan have empha­ sised mainly her relations with the United States- Japan’s totalitarian leaders have tried to coax, to ca­ jole , and to blackmail the United State* But then*- actions did not scare, nor deceive the United Slate* if the totalitarian atmoapbere in Japan did not suffer from a bad odoriferous condition which cause* Mother of H.

There is one vital part of our war effort which depends on you. Your government has placed a "ceiling” on retail prices. You are the buyers of four out of every five dollars worth of all the goods sold in this country. Your whole­ hearted help is needed in this price control plan. If every woman does her part, it cannot fail. Its success will be a big step on the road to victory. Its failure would be a serious blow to our war effort. You can tip the balance towards success. Will you, then, undertake to make the successful control of commodity prices an established fact? We know you will. And we know that when you undertake this task it is as good as done. 1. Make a list of commodities Wc want you to sit down today and make a list of the things you buy from week to week and from month to month. Write down food and clothing items in particular, because these account for the biggest share of your expenditures. But wc want you to list those articles you buy at the drug store, hardware store, and other stores, too. 2. Make notes about quality Now go over your list again and mark down the neces­ sary details about quality, type, grade and size. Then when making future purchase^ you will be able to compare values as well as prices. 3. Write down prices _ After each item wc want you to write down, if you can, the highest price charged at your store during the period Sep­ tember 15 to October 11,1941. If you cannot remember the prices charged during that period, fill in your list with today’s prices. Our stlrvcy shows that retailers, with few exceptions, are keening prices well within the "ceiling” levels. As exceptions are being discovered they arc being quickly brought into line. 4. Keep this list—use it when you buy! Make up this price list neatly and accuratclv. You will not be able to get all the items at once. Keep adding to your list from day to day. Make it your permanent check list— your personal safeguard against any further rise in prices. Prices May he Different in Different Stores There has always been a difference in prices in different stores-Htvcn stores in the same locality. This may depend on the kind of service the store gives, or the wav it operates. Some stores, for instance, have delivery’ service, give credit, or provide other extra services. Under the new Price Ceiling Order there will still be differ­ ences in prices at diffeftnt stores. The new price regulations will not do away with competition. The highest prices in any particular store must not be higher than the highest prices in force in (bat store during the period September 15 to October 11. They may be .a little lower or a little higher than the prices in other stores. The prices- you will mark, down will be the highest prices . charged at the stores where you shop. A Few Points to Remember 1. The ceiling price is not necessarily the price you paid. It is the highest price at which the store sold the particular item* between September IS and October 11. 2. A merchant may reduce his prices for sales or other reasons—he may also raise them provided they do not go above the ceiling price. 3. Variations in seasonal prices on fresh fruits and vege­ tables are permitted. Killings on seasonal markets will be an­ nounced from time to time by the Wartime Prices and Trade Board in newspapers and over the radio. 4; Fill out your price list without bothering, your merchant. In m* y casgs he is faakiog a financial sacrifice to sell under the price ceiling.: Thy w^r haj kfrhim short staffed-and the Christ­ mas rush is on. ----------_ items most frequently bou ght------------------------ This is not intended as a complete list.
