Thousands of their relatives and friends are now on the front lino in the invasion of Sicily. “We must increase our efforts to aid the cause of our soldiers abroad, and a most important con­ tribution which can be made now, is to support the Red Cross Blood Don­ ors’-Clinic. I mention that at this time because I have been told that the number of donors is insufficient to meet demands and this is causing considerable concern to those un­ selfish volunteers ■who have been working night and day to build up the blood bank in this country and overseas. “Among the countries involved in the present conflict, Canada is one of the most fortunate. Wp have suffered no bombings, nor have we felt any of the physical ravages of war. We should bo sincerely thank­ ful for our good fortune, and while we have been called upon to make some sacrifice, we should not hesi­ tate when we can do more. “One of the ways in which nearly every citizen, man or woman, can help, and with little personal incon­ venience is to donate their blood through the Red Cross. Some may have thought when the Canadian army „„„ __ 1.. --------------- donations were not so important, but they were inevitable needs of the day of action. Now that our troops are on a fighting front, blood donations become more important than ever to maintain our war effort. “Blood is processed into a serum which can be shipped anywhere and be kept for an indefinite length of time. “Your blood may be the means of giving a life-saving transfusion to a soldier at the front, where dir­ ect transfusions of fresh blood can­ not be carried out. “In addition to thaL the Blood Bank here in Canada or in Great Britain, provides for many other emergencies. They include: Use in military hospitals all over Canada, in hospitals overseas for treating bombed-out civilians, and in civilian and war service emergencies such as fire disaster and train wrecks. Out­ standing examples of recent months, were the Knights of Columbus hos­ tel fire in Newfoundland and the Almonte train wreck. “For the Canadian army, I extend heartfelt thanks to those who have been donating to the Red Cross Clin­ ics, and I appeal to those who have not done so, to register at the near­ est clinic, and offer their blood that others might live. (Signed) J. L. RALSTON, Minister of National Defence." Blood donor representatives in Ingersoll are Frank Cragg at the Morrow Co., James Spaven at Ing­ ersoll Machine Co., and downtown at Carr’s Book Store. Registration forms for men and women are avail­ able from these agencies. The Duplicate Bridge Club re­ sumed play for the season in the I.O.O.F.

THURSDAY, OCTOBER 7, 1943 Town Council A good way to look at this talk of Socialism and a Government which runs everything, is to think of how this would work in a Canadian city or town—especially in one of the smaller places. After all, Canada consists only of communities, and it is quite easy to get an idea of what might happen in Canada as a whole by thinking of what might happen in one commun­ ity. The same sort of people are avail­ able here to run things as are avail­ able to run everything in the coun­ try. What the individual citizen might think about is i OBITUARY The death of Mr. James Gemmell occurred on Saturday evening, after a short illness. Deceased who was widely known in Ingersoll, was in his 61st year. Rev. Alfred Bright officiated and interment took place in the Ingersoll Rural Cemetery. The pall bearers were Messrs. An­ drew Dunn, John Patterson, Geo. Brown, Wm. Sandick, Jas. Comiskey and John Dunn. The St. James' Church A.Y.P.A. held an organization meeting on Monday night in the school room. Mr. H. C. Wilson occupied the chair and after transaction of routine bus­ iness called for election of officers for the current year which resulted as follows: Patron, Rev. R. J. M. Perkins; President, Mr. W. L. Cragg; Vice-President, Mr. C. W. Riley, Jr.;iduai citizen _ ... „ , . LSecretary, Miss S.

Miss E. Wood- Pro­ town by-laws; in which the local Miss E. Thompson; Lookout, stores would all be combined into’ •' lss * • 1 50n" one big store, run by the town; in | which the price of everything which ■ comes in from the country on the 1 market and the price of everything which is sold to the farmer in the surrounding countryside would be fixed by the local authorities. Of course, out on the farms which are tributary to the town, the farm­ ers would have to plant the crops, pay the wages, and do the work which the local authorities instructed them to do. If the community was to remain a democratic one, then the local authorities would have to be elected by the townspeople and the farmers of the surrounding area. That is Socialism. It is just as simple as that. The more the individ­ ual citizen thinks this over, the less likely it seems that he will really like this system. Under it, of course, fio individual would ever start a new factory or business. That would be something to be settled by the auth­ orities. They would have to think of what might be profitable to make in this town, and then tax every one to pay for building' the" factory in which it was to be made. Of course, if the goods, from that factory were to be sold outside a town and i^s own farm area, the quality and price of these goods would have to be settled by some more important cen­ tral authority—but that would onlybe an authority very much 'like. the town council. After all, the same sort of people get elected to Parlia­ ment as get elected to town councils; the same sort of people are civil servants at Ottawa as are employed by town authorities. If the Canadian people could only get accustomed to thinking of Social­ ism m these terms, they would have a pretty good idea of how it would WOrk—and it does not seem likely that there would' be so many people advocating Socialism as there now are—The Printed Word.

Salvage Helps Motorists The announcement of Mr. Howe that owners of. passenger cars may have their tires retreaded with cam; el-back rubber of the passenger type ■without a tire ration permit will be welcome to Canadian . motorists. Following the increase of the rations of tea and coffee, it is also an en­ couraging sign that the Government is ready, when adequate resources arc available, to mitigate the drastic sacrifices it has bpd to impose upon the Canadian people for the pur­ poses of the war. But the people also owe this Re­ covery of a lost privilege to their own efforts. It has been the credit­ able work of some 2,000 salvage com­ mittees, organized all over the Do­ minion for the purpose of collecting old tires and tubes and other waste rubber, that has produced the mater­ ial to make possible, the Concession Bow granted. Hundreds of public- spirited citizens and thousands of school children have given freely of their time and energy to the work of these committees, and they de­ serve the gratitude of the motoring community.Despite the mounting output of has returned with friends SOCIAL and PERSONAL Miss Florence Bowes of Alma College, St. Thomas, spent Sunday at her home.

After two days and two nights on the train, Ottawa and its hive of war activity seems a remote place. Out here on the long stretches of flat prairie, with the manpower avail­ able, the farmers are garnering a ’ crop which, while it isn’t so much compared to last year’s record bum- ’ per, will contribute greatly to feed-r ing the United Nations. , For miles and miles on end one“ sees threshing rigs going full blast and numberless straw stacks—gol- ; den yellow mounds that tell a story ’ of nature’s gift in fruition. On the ’ train, which rumbles ceaselessly on, is found part of the public opinion of Canada, and for anyone inter- . csted in the dissemination of infor- 5 mation here is a fountain of inter-’ esting hours to be spent. It is on a train too I think, that some of ’ the mechanics of public opinion is moulded and considerable inter-sec­ tional goodwill is cemented. But ru­ mours are also spread, and misin­ formation is spilled around pro­ miscuously. And it is also where po- ’ litical hash is potted. • More people are travelling than I ever before; and more people are t learning more about Canada than , they ever did before. Good will • come of it. I was talking to a wes- I tern agriculturist who had been I down in Quebec taking a looksee. : He had probably hated to persuade 1 himself, but he admitted frankly s that the Quebec farmer “was doing a good job” . . . that he was in most cases, and in his own way, really farming better than the westerner (had given him credit for. I only men­ tion this because it shows what ’ travel and inter-mingling can do for \ a people. (You run into interesting things on a train alright. I talked with a diplomat’s wife who was just three weeks away from Stockholm with her two small children and a Nor- ' wegian nurse. A high priority got her out of Sweden by plane. Some of her observations I think will rc- ■ cord here something that I haven’t seen suggested anywhere in the press of Canada jQr the United States'. She had spoken to newspaper people in Stockholm, to people from Ger­ many who had been in Sweden on business, to refugees just escaped from occupied Norway, and she said the feeling is growing that Germany will soon quietly move out of Nor­ way and be rid of what’s turning out to be a decided pain in the neck to her—economically, militarily, and otherwise. This is the “something” that I .haven’t seen even 'suggested before-. < She said conditions in Norway are terrible, worse than what you read about. There is an ^average of about forty Norwegians getting out every day to Sweden and she has had the opportunity of getting first hand information. She confirmed the reports that no German troops have moved through Sweden ' for some lime, ever since the Swedish gov­ ernment promulgated that edict. People recently . from Germany had told her that -the city pf Ham­ burg, for instance, was really totally obliterated. .Fires so terrible raged there after .the big raids that they didn’t even try to stop them, and cement flowed down the streets like lava. Berlin has taken a terrible ‘ pasting and is in a bad way, but her 1 information was that the morale of 1 the German people is not yet shaken 1 to the extent where there is liable ■ to be an early collapse. ’ 1 To get back to this prairid con­ vention. which is thought important ■ enough to be. attended by the Nation- ’---------------------------------------------------— j nesday after a visit with her mother, | Mrs. Snell at Exeter.------------------------(Mr. John Hugill of St Thomas, has , been visiting with his son, Mr. E.

Chartera of Bramp­ton, Ont.< a high note of the con­vention, aa it was at the nationalaffair is Toronto, ia the contributionweekly papers can make to the win­ning of victory. Why I mention thiais because they merely reflect theopinions and the physical and moraleffort of those who read weekly newspapers—the people who live in the areas not classed as urban. The Regina Leader-Post in an editorial today voiced this sentiment aptly and in the following paragraph of that editorial showed what the daily newspapers—which means the daily readers toe—think of the week­ lies, which—as we mentioned be­ fore, means you and you, too. “The weekly newspapers consti­ tute the veritable backbone of pub|ie information. They reach a reading group that the dailies barely touch. They enjoy an intimacy of relation­ ship with their subscribers that met­ ropolitan newspapers regard with envy but can scarcely hope to equal because of their much greater and thereby more impersonal circula­ tion.” , “When this has been said, let it be quickly added that in this war up to now the weekly newspapers have done a remarkably effective and magnificently unselfish job in supporting the war effort. They have given generously of their time, space and energy and will keep on so doing until the war is won. They are not holding out for more of anything except a greater opportunity of con­ tributing to victory.” Along a similarly serious vein of thought was Premier W. J. Patter­ son’s address to the convention. He asked the newspapermen in their various communities to preach the doctrine of hope and optimism, which must, however, be checked by the prospect of the serious problems which are still facing us. He thought it wps up to people to retain their true sense of proportion, not to re­ gard the general outlook from any standpoint of our own personal problems; we should take the broader and national view. He meant ■we should not miss the forest be­ cause of the trees. And that ends a rambling news letter that had to be, despite supposed week’s holiday. the National Parks In Wartime and After ■ Despite increasing travel difficul- ;ties, attendance at the national parks . is still running to substantial fig- . ures. In 1942-43 more than 126,500 . persons visited Banff National Park , alone, and the figures for this year . are holding up surprisingly well. About 25 or 30 per cent are men ; and women from the Armed Forces, including many airmen from Great . Britain and the other Dominions, i Such visits should have an important . effect in promoting interest in the ;national parks in other countries within the British Commonwealth, . and also in the United States. It is apparent that due to war- (time conditions a great desire for travel and change is being dammed up which will express itself with the return of peace. Before the present restrictions came into effect the national parks were receiving more than a million visitors each year. It may be . expected that the demand for recreation and travel after the war will be greater than ever before, and as the national parks rank among the greatest, of Canada’s playgrounds, they will be called upon to play a leading role in post-war recreation. Apart from promoting understan­ ding and good-will between neigh­ bors, an annual influx, of visitors from other countries brings a mar­ ket for Canadian agricultural pro­ ducts, handicrafts and manufactured goods right to the door of the .pro­ ducer. It also furnishes increased revenues to transportation compan­ ies, hotels and all the other enter­ prises catering to the travelling public. The preservation and promotion of good health among Canadians is likely to occupy a place of promin­ ence in post-war planning. An an­ nual vacation with pay is being ad­ vocated in many quarters for people of all income brackets. Travel edu­ cation is becoming part of opr “way of life” on this continent, and travel to the national parks will give Can­ adians a better ideft of the magni­ tude of their country. Many of the young men from the Armed Forces of thp United Nations who visit the national parka express a determination to come back after the war, and are forwarding liter­ ature to their friends and relatives abrdad in the hope of inducing them to visit Canada when final victory has been nchievgj}. Canada, may, therefore, during' the early post-war years, be called upon to cope with an influx of visitors from other lands such as this country has never experienced in the past.—By Robert J. C. Stead, National Parka Bureau,Ottawa. New Control ofEmployment In HighPriority IndustriesHonourable Humphrey Mitehell,Minister of Labour, announces fur­ther control of employment in. highpriority industries. The Government has, by Order in Council, provided that employers in “A” or “B” labour priorities may not release male employees without the written permission of a Select­ ive Service Officer. Similarly, male employees in the same industries may not give notice of separation to their employers without first having secured the pritten permis­ sion of a Selective Service Officer. “A” and “B” are the two highest priorities and include all war indus­ tries and essential civilian services, including the delivery of fuel in cites, food processing and meat pack­ ing plants and many other services. Local Employment and Selective Service Offices will notify employers that they are in either “A” or “B” category, and immediately such no­ tice is received by the employer, he will be required to post it for the information of the employees: the rule will then be effective in the par­ ticular plant. For the present female employ­ ees are not to be included in this further control. Instructions being issued to Na­ tional Selective Service Officers will permit of the issuance of the neces­ sary permit to change employment, in cases where obvious hardship or unfairness would result from a re­ fusal to grant permission. ‘'Many thousands of firms”, tjie Minister of Labour explained, “fall in categories “A” or “B”. While every effort will ibe made to avoid imposing hardship on any individu­ als, the need of preventing avoid­ able labour turnover in industries highly important to the war effort is greater than ever, and the new rules are expected to give substantial assistance in that direction.” Hon. Mr. Mitchell further pointed out that the principles involved in the new regulation, before being approved by the Governor in Coun­ cil, were carefully considered by the National Selective Service Advisory Board, and were unanimously ap­ proved by that Board. The Board has representation from organized labour, employers, farmers, returned soldiers, and Government depart­ ments. The Minister concluded by saying: “The Order goes into effect Sep­ tember 20, 1943, and there will be no doubt in most plants as to whether the employment comes un­ der the Order or not; however, in most cases of doubt employers will be furnished the information by the local Employment and Selective Service office.” The standard penalties, contained in National Selective Service Civil­ ian Regulation s, will apply in the case of failure to comply with the new regulation regarding separation from employment in categories “A" and “B”.

The Corps was authorized by an order in council in the summer of 1941 and first recruits began to come in Sept. 1st, 1941. The Women have replaced able bodied men for overseas service and they have surprised everyone with the capable and cheerful manner they have tackled the joba to be done. They have put on the smart Khaki uniform of the King’s forces for the duration of the War of their own free will and have dembn- strated that they can be good sol­ diers.

M M of Canada keep abreast of the Dominion’s expanding needs. Six times since 1870 the Bafck Act under which the Chartered Banks operate has been revised by parliament—six times in that period the activities of the banks have been carefully scrutinized by the people’s representatives. Every ten years the Bank Act has been thus revised. Each one of the six decennial revisions has contributed much to the evolution of the banking system to meet the expanding needs of a developing Dominion. In 1934 the sixth revision of the Bank Act was made. Fifty mem­ bers of the House of Commons made up the cdtnmittee, which examined witnesses—among them bank officers, government officials and reformers — and studied exhibits filed by various individuals and organizations. Findings were submitted to the House, and later that year the Bank Act was revised in many important particulars.

J. Farley, regional superintendent of rationing for Wes­ tern Ontario. Among these commodities are jams, jellies, marmalades, honey, apple, maple and honey butter; can­ ned fruits, molasses, corn syrup or maple syrup. Producers are divided into two classes, those who produce less than than 2,000 pounds annually and those who produce 2,000 pounds or more. Those who produce less than 2,000 pounds register with their lo­ cal ration board and file a monthly report on the number of coupons collected. They must return to the local ration board D coupons and other ration documents received. D coupons for the rations used by the producer and his family need not be returned. Producers of 2,000 pounds or more register with the nearest branch of the Ration Administra­ tion. Branches in Western Ontario are organized in Kitchener, London and Windsor. These producers open a coupon bank account and forward monthly reports to the branch where they are registered. , and at the name time include codponson the basis of two pound* per cou­poil for meat consumed and on thekame basis for meat sold to neigh­bouring farmers. In neither case isit neceuury to surrender more than50'. of coupons in the household. Producers of dairy butter must register with the local ration board. Coupons received from the sale of dairy butter to any consumer must accompany monthly report—at the rate of one coupon for every half pound sold. If the consumption of butter by the producer’s household exceeds the rate allowed, regulations provide that the producer^ return all the valid coupons for the period in­ volved. Movements of honey from the pro­ ducer to the consumer will be facili­ tated by the adjustment in the value of D ration coupons. Effective September 30, one coupon is good for one pound of honey, double the initial value. Five coupons are now valid and it is expected that this will permit consumers to purchase quan- ties in large sized containers. The public has been cautioned that sup­ plies are no greater than they were at the time of rationing and care should be used in cashing cou­ pons. Consumers are being asked not to spend coupons unless they really need the goods. Clarifying misunderstandings which have arisen among farmers regard­ ing meat and dairy butter ration regulations, E. J. Farley, Regional SuptArintendent of Rationing for Western Ontario, states that there ate two distinct classes of meat slaughters. The first is whe-e a far­ mer or other person obtains a Licen­ sed Slaughterer’s Permit. The holder of this permit must report monthly to the nearest branch of the Ration Administration. The other class in­ cludes a farmer who slaughters meat for his own consumption. He should register at his local ration board and receive a registration card. He is only permitted to sell to neighbour­ ing farmers for consumpton on their own premises. He must report at the end of each month the amdunt of meat slaughtered during that month Manufacturers of tobacco pro­ ducts must obtain permission of the administrator of tobacco before pur­ chasing any of this year’s crop. The administrator will decide how much each may purchase. The approved quantity will be determined after a consideration of the total product­ ion of that type of tobacco in 1948, the average productions in 1940, 1941 and 1942 and the average bought by the purchaser in 1940, 1941 and 1942.

A VICTORY BOND is the promise of the Dominion of Canada to repay in . cash the face value of the Bond on the date of maturity with half-yearly interest until Kthat time. A Victory Bond is the safest investment in Canada backed by the entire resources of the Dominion. Canada has been iwaning bonds for 75 years, and has never failed to pay every dollar of principal and interest when due. A Victory Bond is an asset readily marketable at any time. all of us. To speed that day is in our power. We at home... in factories, in offices, on farms... work long hours to hurry it along. We go without, andifend our savings to provide what he needs to win quickly. This is the least that anyone can do. And when that day comes-^you’ll want to welcome him—-and to help him make his hopes come true. To speed Victory, plan to buy as many Victory B^nds as you can.

To-day, we are on the march. Our soldiers, our sailors, our airmen—the military strength of the* United Nations— mighty in number and equipment—are attacking on all fronts/ The Hun has been chased from North Africa. Mfissolini is gone, and Ital­ ian resistance is crumbling. Our Russian allies are slowly, smashing back the Ger­ man armies. Our air forces are blasting Germany with huge bombing raids, pre- Earing the way for an all-out land assault on Hitler’s fortress. On the Atlantic, the attle against the subs is running in our favour. And, in the Far East, Japanese aggression has been halted, with our offensive in this region gradually gaining in size and momentum. We are all aware of these facts—they are the news of the moment. But, we also know the toughest part of the battle still lies ahead. Our progress on worldbattlefronts gives us fresh spirit to’ press onward to our goal—but our advances up to now are only a start/ It is-going to take a. lot of hard and bloody fighting- to cont- . pletely defeat Germany and Japan—to smaah their still powerful military forces, and make willing to accept our terms of. “unconditional surrender.” To bring this war to a Victorious’ end, we must have—and we must maintain • —overwhelming superiority in men and Equipment. We must continue our war effort —on the home front as on the battlefront—with the same purpose and determin­ ation which carried us through the ararfeties and reverses of the last four years.The slogan of Canada's Fifth Victory Loan, (Oct. 18-Noy. 6) is “Speed the Victory”. Each of the four previous Victory Loans has been a great success-it must be another milestone in our march to Victory. * Citizens—your neighbours, your friends, members of your own family— have the money to buy more Bonds than ever before. • Our boys overseas are counting oh us to back them up. Remember—they have a long, hard road to travel beforp Victory can be won. Let’s give them our full support by tackling the job ahead of its with intelligence and ‘with determination. Let’s “Speed the Victory” by 'making the Fifth Victory Loan a smashing success. ♦ * • - ’ • DR* J. M. ROGERS, Chairman. ? Athough it has been known for many weeks in well-informed quar­ ters backstage along Parliament Hill that the Government has given much consideration to the whole problem of labor and its relations to .wages, cost-of-living bonus and price con­ trols, including discussions about the War Labor Board personnel or actions, yet it has been hinted that, whatever solution could be found to ease the pressure or to lessen the tension in labor circles in Canada, the Government would still not devi­ ate entirely from its course to do everything within its power to op­ pose inflationary tendencies regard­ less of the pressure for any change, even slight in this firm attitude so that any solution would indicate ex­ treme headlines of wariness. In other words, the Government has shown itself to be determined in its attitude towards certain protests of labor in this war, with the basic reason for this being due not merely to the millions of dollars involved in any coming all-round increase of wages or salaries at a time when billions of dollars are being. spent but rather being accounted for by the Government’s clearly defined aim not to weaken in its grim battle against the serious dangers of infla­ tion in this war since, it is argued, inflation might easily crack the pro­ tective armor or destroy the whole effectiveness of the economy of this nation’s war machine. ADVERSE EFFECTS OF WEATHER There is no doubt in the nation's capital that there arc now unusually great demands for farm products, such as bacon, meat, poultry dairy, •etc., in order to meet the extraor­ dinary wartime requirements abroad and at home. Therefore, under the circumstances, the reports that poor weather conditions - had affected adversely grain crops in the' east have caused considerable thought In the capital in view of the greater need now than ever before of more production of farm products, with the result that action has already been taken by coarse grains being bonused and transportation being provided so that the proper quanti­ ties may be moved within the next few months where these are most needed.
