THURSDAY, DECEMBER 19th, 1946 Christmas Thoughts Are Pleasant Ones One thinks of many people at Christmas; of one’s family and- friends; of those with whom we have spent past Christmasses, and of those who though not known personally, have contributed to the happiness of the season; who still contribute to it. As one of the latter, tribute is due the late Madame Schumann-Heink, whose singing of “Silent Night, Holy Night”, over the radio on Christmas Eve, was one of the many happy exper­ iences of the season. She, who travelled the world, charming huge audiences with her exquisitely sweet contralto voice, always sang “Silent Night”, to her children, and later to her grandchildren, as they gathered round her on Christmas Eve. Witn the coming of the radio, her' listeners circled the globe. There had never been such a contralto voice, until Schumann-Hemk sang. There has not been one since her passing. Another who has stirred the Christmas spirit in numberless hearts, is Charles Dickens, who is de­ serving of more than passing thought at this season. English Christmasses had not fully re­ gained the gaiety of former years, which was crushed by Cromwell and his followers, until Dickens appeared on the scene, and by the aid of his pen had such an influence that his name hus become inseparably associated with the glad sea­ son. All over the world various groups gather—some large, others small—to read once more "A Christ­ mas Carol ’, which records the mellowing influence of the Spirit of Christmas on the heart of an old man, hardened by greed and selfishness. People who at other times are emotionally unaffected, give way before the mingling of pathos and happiness as depicted by Dickens. For sheer fun and revelry, one cannot do better than read of the Christmas celebrations of the Pickwick Club. There' is to be found as jolly a group as could be met with anywhere, in the jovial, and at times fidgety, Mr. Pickwick, with his cronies. Messrs. Snodgrass. Winkle and Tapman. Follow them on their conch-ride through the frosty air, ns they travel to spend Christmas with their friend, Mr. Wardle at hi# home. “Dingley Dell”. Make friends with that latter gentleman, who was the embodiment of kindliness and hospitality. Other interesting characters are his mother and his daughters; also, one of the rich personalities of English literature, Samuel Weller, whose wise­ cracks never become boring. It was a happy group at “Dingley Dell.” To renew acquaintance with them each year is one ofthe pleasures of the season. Contented Workers Will Make Industry Run Smoother A great deal is heard ab”ut the prevailing un­ rest. This group and that, for whatever purpose originally formed, seems eventually to become infected with the deadly germ that causes bicker­ ings and ill-feeling. We shall present a somewhat perplexing picture to students of history a few centuries hence, as they read of our scientific ad­ vances and accomplishments, while at the came time they note our inability to adjust ourselves to the surroundings we have created. They might even smile at our apparent childishness—our im­ maturity. Perhaps the next phase of our development might indicate more consistency. Thousands of ex-service personnel are in training schools and universities throughout the country. Men and women now have an opportunity to study for trades and professions of their own choosing. A former nurse, is permitted to satisfy a life-long desire to study music and tench it; a bank clerk is taking up commerce and finance; a lad who used to enjoy tinkering, Is learning welding. All these people, on completion of their course#, will be able ot do something they really enjoy. Their jobs will mean mbre than just putting inso many hours of work. Most of them have faced realities to such an extent that they have reached the fundamentals of what is worth-while. They’ realize that the nor­ mal functioning of the faculties i# the greatest source of happiricss. It is the foundation of the good life. y They will probably make a tremendous contribu­ tion Io the contentment of labour and the stabil- ization of industry.

That is Democracy.Interest rates are low now—Conditions are fav­ourable for borrowing the required money alongwith that for the sewerage project. Already thereare signs of a period of unemployment setting in,unless it is checked.With plans drawn up and finances secured, thetwo projects can be undertaken, so that work willbe available to those needing it, and let us hope,a depression will thereby be averted.

CONFERENCEThe main conclusions of the 5thannual Dominion-Provincial Confer­ence held in Ottawa, December 2 to4, 1946, were outlined in an ad­dress which closed the Conference,by Hon. James G.1 Gardiner Domin­ion Minister of Agriculture. Theseconclusions the Conference unani­mously endorsed and are as follows: “That an effort should be made to increase production of live stock and dairy products and to maintain pre­ sent production of poultry and eggs; “That if live-stock production is to be increased and wheat made available for human consumption, barley acreage must be increased. “That if a storage of oats is to be maintained against possible short crop to assure feeding present live­ stock population through our long winters, oat acreage should be in­ creased; “That if barley and oat acreage is to be increased it can be most effectively brought about in West­ ern Canada by reducing wheat acre­ age; “That if that is the goal it can only be brought about, particlularly in barley, by making the return from barley comparable with the return per acre from wheat; “The Conference is of the opinion that the return on barley could be assured and hence the increased acre­ age desired by making an acreage payment to farmers producing bar­ ley in the western provinces; “The Conference is of the opinion that if an acreage payment is made in the western provinces the 15 cent premium should be removed in the west and the payment of freight to the eastern provinces and British Columbia continued;“The Conference is of the opinion that with this increase in the pro­ duction of barley provided for pro­ vision should be made to encourage greater production of hogs and milk and particularly milk utilized for the production of butter and cheese; ‘It was contended that to encour­ age live-stock products, particularly dairy products, an increase in oil cake supply is necessary. If this is to be accomplished there must be an in­ crease in flax seed production in the j west. It is the opinion of the Con-i ference this can only be brought' about by increasing the return for flax.” I.C.l STUDENTS "hel d- THEIR FIFTH DEBATE’ The fifth debate this year was ■ held on Wednesday afternoon of last | week at the Ingersoll Collegiate In­ stitute.

It was stressed that the Government's margin over the combined opposi­ tion was extremely slim now in Par­ liament for the coming session, with supporters of the Government re­ portedly insinuating or hinting in a speech or two about the possibility of snap elections. However, well-informed sources on Parliament Hill do not believe that any such a call for a general election in the immediate future will be forthcoming in face of the Govern­ ment’s setbacks in by-elections and the slim majority in the House of Commons, emphasizing that the nat­ ural life of the present Government has some years to go, that there are no real issues or causes for an elect­ ion and that there is no great likeli­hood that the opposition would com­bine to defeat the Government whichhas 124 supporters against 67 forthe Progressive-Conservatives or 28few others. In other words, the pres­ent discussions about, general elec-C.C.F., or 13 Social Credit, and a tions being held in 1947 are mini­mized ’ considerably by veteran ob­servers in the capital. HEARING SET The hearing of the application of the Canadian National Railways forfreight rate increases of about 30%has been set for January 8 in Ot­ tawa and the hearing for the similar application of the Lake FreightersAssociation for January 20. It isunderstood here that a fairly exten­ sive list of representations have been made already on this freight rate is­ sue by interested parties. SHORT, SHORT STORY on thesubject of the Christmas Spirit . . .it happened a couple of weeks agoon a bus which had pulled out ofMonterrey, Mexico. The driver hadnavigated his creaky vehicle, packedto capacity, through narrow, moun­tainous city ■ streets, around hairs- breadth corners in city traffic, finally reached the open highway. Passen­gers sighed with relief and leaned back, but not for long.

Econo Feel tion VISITS PENITENTIARIES It is learned in Ottawa that theCanadian Commissioner of Peniten­ tiaries, Major-General Ralph B. Gib­son, former vice chief of staff of theCanadian Army, has visited all penalinstitutions across Canada since hewas uppointted to the high post inApril and he is preparing a reporton his visits to the (Minister of Jus­tice. this report to be made public in time. ONLY RECOMMENDATIONS Il may not be realized by the average Canadian but it is known in Ottawa that the abolition of wageand salary controls in this countrymeans that rulings of the war labor boards on cases pending before them and dealing with wages after Nov.30, 1946, have the effect only ofrecommendations. Likewise, it is pointed out here that contracts signed in accordance with labor board rul­ ings are not necessarily ended orpossi’ully affected, as some wouldseem to think, by the new control-free wage conditions in Canada since there is no doubt that any attedipt to move wage rates in a downwarddirection now would lead to iabortrouble- and to move them up must also be done with care. t hempN * Plecne return empty beer bottles to your neorest Brewers* Retoil Store or phone for pick-up service.

PEACETIME PRICES There is no doubt along Parlia­ment Hill now that the recent Do­minion-Provincial Agricultural Con­ference held in Ottawa supplied much valuable information about the in­creases or decreases of acreage for.various crops in 1947 but it seems tohave left even more impressive re­ ports about prices going up or down in the near future. Indeed, it waswnispered that observers believedthere was much truth in the opinion•hat the turn to lower prices for Ca­ nadian agricultural products mighteasily come in 1948, though for thepresent as well as the immediate per­iod ahead supporting of prices of major agricultural products would cause minor products to adjust them­selves automatically to higher levelswithout intervention. Meanwhile. Dr. H. B. Boyd, director of the Office of Price. Production and MarketingAdministration, United States De­partment of Agriculture, has de­clared in Ottawa that farm income generally was at a “satisfactorylevel" in United States at this timebut that it was felt the farm pricestructure would be “severely tested” in the future.—(Ranroduction pro­hibited.)

Douglas & Sons KING STREET EAST Save Time -\r' Get Better Results All Paints and Enamel Purchased here are thoroughly mixed on our Paint Shaker Two paragraphs in the LethbridgeHerald discuss the changes whichhave taken place in the cotton grow­ing industry of the United States.We haven’t many cotton fields inCanada, but there is in this itemsomething to point a moral and ad­orn a tale: “As a result of the mechaniz­ ation of cotton growing it is said that the South is wondering what to do with some 3,000.000 cotton growers. Full mechanization has cut the man hours to produce an acre of cotton from 133 to 19 while one case is reported where 13 hours was enough to do the job. “Work hours have been stead­ ily decreased within the lives of many of us. Mechanization is the cause. Shorter work hours are quite in order when greater pro­ duction and cheaper goods can be provided by machines and modern technique. The big problem, how­ ever, is to get machines and man­ power into step so that we can ■have shorter hours and higher pay without lowering the stand­ ard of living.” Note the first paragraph. Man­ hours of work needed to produce an acre of cotton have been cut from 133 to 19. This means that for every dollar of direct wage costs paid out in recent years by the cotton plan­ ter, fourteen cents does the trick. It's a sharp cut. The result should be a reduction in the price of cotton, an increase in consumption, a gain for the consumers of cotton goods throughout the worldy, plus greater stability in the business of growing cotton. This estimate of savings is, how­ ever, a gross figure, the net may be somewhat different. The scientist working in a test tube may get re­ sults difficult to reproduce on a larger scale. The net saving will not be so great as the figures seem to indicate. Machines cost money, this mtfens higher capital costs and expensive repairs. More men will be employed in manufacturing indus­ tries in the cities where this machin­ ery is made, fewer on the planta­ tions where the cotton is grown. The men in the factories making mach­ ines will earn higher wages than the men who formerly worked on the plantations. The Machines will re­ quire expert handling and the men who work them will earn more money. The net savings, though im­ portant, will be somewhat remote from the 113 hours here stated. HIGHER STANDARDS Now what follows? It depends on what is done with the savings. If by this the price of raw cotton is re­ duced then the lower price will en­ able the manufacturers of cotton goods to reduce their prices. The consumers will pay less for the things they buy and will therefore buy more. It means reduction in costs, lower prices, more value for our dol­ lars, increasing purchasing power for every section of the community. But what happens to the poor cotton planter. There will be a greater de­ mand for raw potton. He will be in a stronger competitive position in the textile industry. His cost of liv­ ing will fall if this program becomes general. The cotton growers will get their share. What happens now to the second quoted paragraph. It suggests that machines and man-power are out of step. Machines are never out of step. They function to reduce costs— that is what brings them into the world. The world is hungry for goods—never was it more hungry. The machine is willing to work. Man is busy, very busy trying to pro­ duce less and get more for it. Mach­ ines are never out of step—man too often is.

A LEGEND OF SANTA CLAUS -Young children in Britain go to bed early on Christmas eve. For they expect that kindly old Father Christmas will come riding over the roof-tops in his sleigh drawn by his magic reindeer; and that he will slide quietly down the chimney into their bedrooms, carrying on his back his sack of gifts. And he will pop one of these gifts into every stocking that is hung up ready for him at the foot of the bed. Toys in Britain are not so easy to come by these days as they were before the war; but still most children gel some­ thing even today. The legend of Father Christmas goes back to the POWER SHORTAGE CRITICAL!SA VE EL EC T R IC IT Y !SOUTHERN ONTARIO faces a severe power shortage right now. Every home, farm, store and industry in the southern part of the province mustsave electricity in every practical way if essential services are to be main­ tained during the present winter period, and rationing restrictions avoided.

THE WORLD IS BUYING BRITISH TOYS Toys made in .Britain will figure as Christmas presents this year for thousands of children in all parts of the world. Large orders have been sent to the Dominions, South Amer­ ica and the Middle East. Children in the devastated countries of Eur­ ope will also have supplies. Mann- facturers in the United Kingdom are now exporting toys on a far greater scale than ever before. In September, for example, the total value was well over £250,000, ($1,000,000), about seven times the monthly value in 1938. The sharp decline in toy manu­ facture in Britain during the war has actually reacted to the advantage of industry in that it has been the means of introducing new ideas and designs based on war production experience. For example, one firm which made fuel valves for Lan­ caster bombers during the war is now turning out, on the same machine lines, precision toys as ac­ curate as the Lancaster parts.

The holes or pits have been found in various parts of Britain, and discoveries in and around them have enabled experts to build up a picture of the life lived in these faroff days.
