in good health, Mrs. Reid was taken
suddenly ill in the office of her eon,
J. G. Reid, Toronto barrister.
The late Mrs. Reid was bom in
Ireland, but had lived in Toronto
since early childhood, until 1942,
when she moved to Port Credit. A
gifted singer, she had long been
active in musical circles in Toronto,
having been soprano soloist in Old
St. Andrew’s Presbyterian, Knox
Presbyterian, St. Peter’s Anglican,
Dunn Avenue Presbyterian and
Bloor Street United Churches. For
a number of years she was a mem
ber of the Mendelssohn Choir.

Norman B. Emory of London, and
Mrs. Harold A. Wilson of Ingersoll;
also three sons, Emerson B., director
of public relations of the Department
of Veterans' Affairs; John G., To
ronto barrister and reeve of the vil
lage of Port Credit, and Kenneth
L., inspector of income tax at Belle-
villa, to all of whom the sympathy
of their large circle of friends is
extended in .their irreparable loss.
The funeral was held on Sunday,
with interment at ’ Spring Creek
Cemetery, Clarkson.
STORM IS NEWS, BUT
ALSO DELAYS THE NEWS
No news is not good news in news
paper work, so one unfortunate re
sult of the recent heavy snowfall,
with blocked roads, and suspension
of rural mail deliveries is that our
rural correspondents have been un
able to send in their copy, with the
consequent reduction of the rural
news.
Some of the isolated residents are
not complaining though. They still
can chat with their friends over the
phone and they say they are enjoying
the enforced rest at home—Some
thing similar to the old-fashioned
winter evenings have been revived.
The family gathers around.the radio
now, listens to the news, holds a
home forum on world affairs and
retires early, which is all to the
good. For, once the merry face of
Old Sol shines on those snowdrifts,
the work of the farmer wiJFrcally
begin, and some extra rest will stand
him in good stead. In the meantime,
newspaper staffs redouble their ef
forts to fill the columns with what
comes their way.

Musical Artists
Present Fine Program
Despite the severity of the
weather, there was a very good atten
dance at the concert held in Trinity
United Church on Monday evening,
under the auspices of the choir, when
three outstanding autists, Betty Spry,soprano; Dr. Alar/ Webb, organist,
and John Linn, pianist, presented a
very attractive program.
Miss Spry showed the results of
her recent studies in New York and
although her voice is still in the
formative period, she gives promise
of becoming a gifted singer, espec
ially if she allows the sweet tones of
hqy voice full opportunity for devel
opment. As her accompanist, Mr.
Linn was sympathetic and helpful.
Dr. Alan Webb gave the audience
great pleasure with his impressive
organ numbers. He is an accom
plished organist whether interpreting
classical or modern music and his
part on the program was greatly
appreciated. The program was as
follows:

lightful hour was spent in discussing
music, the artists generously giving
several numbers informally, which
were greatly enjoyed. Rev. C. D.

and Mr. Linn on behalf of all present.

Toronto—Veterans still under
going treatment in Canada's military
hospitals are paying “perhaps the
hardest of all prices of war," said
Mrs. Clara F. McEachern, O.B.E., re
cently in announcing statistics on the‘
work of the present seven Canadian
Red Cross Society Lodges. Mrs. Mc
Eachern is chairman of the National
Women's Work Committee,
Built by the Red Cross adjacent
to Department of Veterans’ Affairs
hospitals,^ these Lodges are serving
an average of 96,900 snacks or meals
to patients and their guests pec
month . There are 1,750 Canadian
Red Cross women volunteers giving
their services to the extent of one
shift or more per week. There is
total guest accommodation for 105
persons per night from out of town
relatives of seriously ill patients. Ex
tensive use of this facility is being
made.
Four more lodges are under con
struction or projected. Work has
been impeded by shortages of mat
erials and by public housing needs.
The oldest existing Lodges, Christie
St., and the newest, Sunnybrook, are
at Toronto. Christie St. Lodge was
built after the First Great War and
the Sunnybrook Lodge, beside Sun
nybrook Military Hospital, was re
cently opened. The
Shaughnessy Lodge, Vancouver;
Deer Lodge, Winnipeg; Westminster
and Crumlin Lodges at London, Ont.,
and the Lodge at Ste. Anne de Belle
vue, near Montreal. A Lodge at Lan
caster Military Hospital, Saint John,
N.B., is under construction. Lodges
are projected at Victoria, B.C., Deep
Brook, N.S., and Camp Hill, Halifax,
“Women members of the Canadian
Red Cross contributed lavishly of
their time and skill in furnishing
these Lodges", said Mrs. McEachern,
“and they are continuing this unsel
fish service for the welfare of the
veterans." Red Cross aid to veterans
this year, including Lodges, is estim
ated to cost 31,550,000. A campaign
for $5,000,000 for peacetime Red
Cross work in Canada is now being
held.
“These Lodges are near, yet apart
from the military hospitals they
serve,” Mrs. (McEachern said. “In
them the veteran patients find re
laxation and entertainment away
from the atmosphere of the hospital
that could not be found within the
hospital proper. Here they meet their
relatives and friends and receive the
spiritual uplift that can be gained
only through such associations."
Based on the 20 years* experience
in caring for the veterans receiving
treatment at Christie St. Hospital,
Toronto, the newer Lodges have been
built to a fairly uniform design. They
have kitchens, canteens, large lounge
rooms, writing rooms, reading rooms,
games rooms, libraries and some have
quiet rooms for the use of distressed
relatives.
Death came with startling sudden-
’ ness to Mr. John Groves at his home,
89 King street west, on Tuesday9 evening. He was in his usual health
when he rose in the morning and
* passed away while attending to the
furnace. ,1 Born in Dereham Township on the
22nd of February, 1871, Mr. Groves
J had farmed there until moving to
Ingersoll 26 years ago, since which
' time he had been engaged as a se
curity salesman for various financial
houses. His death oaufted on his
51st wedding anniversary.
The late Mr. Groves was a member
of Trinity United Church. His hob
bies were fishing and bowling, being
an ardent follower of the latter
sport. He was a member of the Inger
soll Lawn Bowling Club.
Left to mourn the passing of a be
loved husband and father are his
widow, the former Irene Service;
also one daughter, Mrs. Gordon
Petrie, at home. Also surviving are
• one sister, Mrs. Andrew Fewster of
Zenda, and three brothers, James
Groves of Ingersoll; George, of West
Oxford, and Alfred of Dereham; also
two grandchildren, Shirley and John
Petrie, to all of whom the sympathy
of the community is extended.
The funeral will be held this
(Thursday) afternoon, from the Fred
S. Newman Funeral Home, where
service will be held at 2.30 o’clock.
Interment will take place at Harris
Street Cemetery, with temporary
entombment in the Ingersoll Maus

Act of Good Citizenship Benefits Children
A fine example of good citizenship, and one that
helps to sustain one's faith in human nature's real
worth, is to be found on the grounds of a home on
King street west. On Mr? A. F. Carr’s lawn, his
sbns, Douglas and Bert, have made a rink which
is providing healthy and suitable recreation for
numbers of children at the West End of the town.
It all began following the January thaw, when
water covering the lawn became frozen, and a few
children, quick to recognize opportunities, asked
and received permission to skate on it. The next
day, it was covered with snow, so the youngsters,
undeterred, set to work to clear it, with shovels
and a wheelbarrow. Soon the ice was alive with
skaters, from tiny tots up.
Mr. Carr and his sons then realized by the
children’s enthusiasm that the rink was filling a
need in that section of the town, so steps. were
taken to make a proper rink, with a basement
room provided, where the skaters could put on
their skates.Each afternoon and evening the place is swarm
ing with dozens of young fry, enjoying the bene
fits of open-air skating, which is the healthiest
kind, with music from a Vktrola, provided by Mr.
Carr. Late at night the Carr brothers may be
seen flooding the rink with a garden hose, keeping
the ice in first-class condition. Appreciation of
this act of philanthropy is evidenced by the good
behaviour of the children.
No organization was necessary for this service,
beyond organization of the natural human qualities
of individuality and initiative combined with a,
sense of kindness which have accomplished most
that has been worthwhile since the beginning of
time.
Wild Life Should Be Conserved
Al decrease in wild life resources in Canada is
viewed with alarm by the authorities. This is a
serious situation, and is attributed to many fac
tors, chiefly: increased hunting, modem firearms,
easier transportation and large humbers of men
emerging from the services.
It has been declared, “as man advances, Nature
recedes”, which would appear as though man and
Nature could not agree. This is a mistake, for man
could not exist without Nature. The creatures of
the wild make a tremendous contribution to the
life of civilized man. Consider for instance the
value of the beaver whose dams prevent many
serious spring floods, and conserve moisture for
summer needs.By the statement of Dr. 0. H. Hewitt, Domin
ion Wild Life Officer for Ontario, it appears that
man if he conducts himself properly towards his
fellow creatures, need, not contribute towards their
extinction, for Dr. Hewitt says that conditions are
satisfactory only rn the extreme southern part of
this Province—the part that is either in, or ad
jacent to, a thickly populated area.
There is also in that area a vigilant citizenry, as
well as alert game supervisors, whose efforts in
conservation are effective.
Every once in a while uncontrollable forces
worlc havoc without wild life, and as a result some
specimens have permanently passed from the Can
adian scene already.
But everything that is humanly possible should
be done to preserve this priceless asset of wild life
for our country.

3. You cannot help small men by tearing down

4. You cannot help the poor by destroying the

5. You cannot lift pt wage-earner by pulling

6. You cannot keep out of trouble by spend

7. You cannot further the brotherhood of man

8. You cannot establish sound security on bor

9. You cannot build Character and courage by I

10. You cannot help men permanently by

Hydro For Eastern Ontario Would Create
Markets For the West
• A group of Eastern Ontario municipalities has
petitioned the Provincial Government to speed de
velopment of the Carillon power site, in order to
supply -heap hydro power for that section of the
Province, in an endeavor to attract industries
there.
It appears to be a very reasonable request. That
part of the Province has not been nearly as'highly
industrialized as it might have been. It has been
somewhat neglected in development schemes, apart
from a certain amount of refofrestry. In fact in
some sections, the policy of depopulating has been
followed. It seems an excellent situation for fac
tories. No fertile soil would be covered over, nor
any basic industry interferred with. The lake-studded district providing pleasant recreational
facilities close at hand, would be something that

With the approach of Spring thereis plenty to be done on the farm inthe line of preparedness beforeploughing and planting begins. One
of the most important activities along
this line, says Alan G. Dustan, Divis
ion of Entomology, Dominion Depart
ment of Agriculture is the overhaul,
of all spraying and dusting equip
ment This entails the greasing and
oiling of all moving parts, the careful
examination, and possible renewal of
rubber hose and hose connections,
the thorough cleaning of tanks, metal
pipes, spray rods, nozzles and strain
ers and the overhaul and tightening
of wooden tanks and barrels. Imme
diate attention to such details will
save not only valuable time, but
money too, when spraying and dust
ing operations actually begin in thespring.
The seed catalogues have already
put in an appearance, listing insecti
cides and fungicides which will be
available for use during 1947. In
these days of reduced supplies, it
would be a wise precaution on the
part of growers to send in their
order. for spraying materials without
delay, before stocks are all used up.
This applies particularly to DDT re
quirements. Some of the larger in
secticide companies advise that DDT
supplies are not expected to meet the
incresing demands. By figuring an
ticipated acreages, it is easy to fig
ure out reasonably closely the volume
of insecticides which will be required
to treat crops during the growing
season.
As a guide, it should be remem
bered that one pound of actual DDT
or two pounds of calcium arsenate,
when in spray form, or, 30 to 35
pounds of prepared dust will treat on
the average of one acre of field or
garden crops once.

Hello Homemakers! We have often
heard people say, “I don’t enjoy
meal* during Lent. They get so tire
some.” Yet we know others who look
forward to interesting meatless
dishes.
We contend that fish dinners can
be delicious and exciting. It’s all in
the way the fish is eooked—provid
ing, of course, that the fish is good
quality and fresh! Most of the
people who do not like fish have
formed that dislike because fish has
been badly cooked or always served
in the same old ways.
You might try, for instance, the
dish a friend of mine calls her Len
ten special. It is a tasty combination
of minced onion and fish fillets in a
cream sauce, bakind in layers in a
casserole. Another special way to
prepare fillets is to cook them in
parchment paper. The parchment
paper or butter wrapping holds in
all the juices.A homey but as fine a dish as you
would ever want to eat is codfish
cakes with tomato sauce. If they are
served with cut beans and a grated
carrot salad even the most finicky
gourmet will enjoy them.

toll.
"With the coming of Spring and
greatly increased traffic”. Mr. Dou
cett warned that Ontario faces a
tragic increase in motor vehicle
deaths and injuries. Quoting the

MRS. J. E. EDDIE
ENTERTAINED FOR
DISTINGUISHED GUEST
A shipment of buffalo and elk,
one male and two females of each,
is going forward by the steamer
“Waikawa” from Vancouver this
month, destined to Taronga Zoolog
ical Park in Sydney, Australia. The
animals have been selected from the
Government herds in Elk Island Na
tional Park, Alberta, where more
than 1000 head of buffalo as well as
some 900 head of elk, moose and
other deer roam at large over an
area of 51 square miles.
Actually, Elk Island National Park
is a fenced enclosure, but as far as
/the . wild animals there are con
cerned they are probably quite un
aware that their movements are in
any way restricted except, of course,
that the are not allowed to visit
’their cousins in other parts of the
country.
At the time that the buffalo,
threatened with extinction, were re
established on the western plains of
Canada, Elk Island National Park
was chosen as the receptioh centre
for the herd purchased by the Can
adian Government from a Montana
rancher. Later, this herd and its
'offspring were transferred to Wain
wright National Park, also In Al
berta, all but a few, too wild to
capture. From this small but elusive .band has grown the present herd of I
plains buffalo—one of the finest on
the continent.
The elk or wapiti, like the buffalo,
are native to the region and were
among the big game animals protect
ed when the area comprising Elk
Island National Park was fenced.
They too are fine specimens, sharing
the lush pastures and enjoying the
same sanctuary conditions afforded
to the buffalo.
The buffalo and elk now being
shipped have a long journey ahead
of them to the "land down under.”
but they are beginning it in excellent

WORLD LEVELS OF
FOOD CONSUMPTION
The cumulative effect of subnor
mal diet is commented upon in the
third quarterly world food appraisal
for 1946-47 by the Food and Agricul
ture Organization of the United Na
tions (FAO). Nutrition and health,
says the report, are little better than
in 1945-1946; in some countries
worse. Many people have been living
for five or six years on a subnormal
diet and the cumulative effects are
now becoming apparent—increasing
incidence of hunger oedema, an
aemia, and vitamin deficiency diseases.
The food appraisal contains a table
showing estimated calory consump
tion levels by countries this year
compared with pre-war levels.
Parts of India, parts of China,
Malaya, parts of Manchuria, Rou-
mania, Austria and Germany in
1946-47 have estimated consumption
levels less than 80 per cent of pre
war diet.
Korea, the Philippines, parts of
India, Java, parts of China, Algeria,
Tunisia, Portugal, French Morocco,
Greece, parts of Manchuria, Italy,
Spain, Hungary, USSR, Bulgaria,
Yugoslavia Belgium, Urguay, Cuba.
Finland. Netherlands, United King
dom, France Switzerland and Nor
way have estimated 1946-47 con
sumption levels 80-95 per cent of
their pre-war diet.
Mexico, Colombia, Iraq, Iran,
Central America, Peru, Indo-China,
Siam, Caribbean area, Egypt, Trop
ical Africa, Burma, South Africa,
Syria and Lebanon^ Chile, Brazil,
Palestine, Turkey, Czechoslovakia,
Paraguay, Sweden, Canada, Austral
ia, Ireland, Denmark, United States
of America, Argentine and New Zeal
and have estimated 1946-47 con
sumption levels over 95 per cent of
their pre-war diet year.

Harry Jackman, Member of Par
liament for Toronto-Rosedale, finish
ed a broadcast over CFRB Tuesday
night with the words: “It is my
belief that exemptions should be
raised on individuals from $750 to
$1,000 and on married persons from
$1,500 to $2,000 and that the rate
of taxation on income should be
lowered substantially”. When Mr.
Jackman says that in parliament he
will be saying it as a member of
His Majesty’s loyal opposition and
the Finance (Minister and the gov
ernment majority will not pay much
attention unless they feel that these
views have the endorsation of all the
people who pay taxes in Canada.
It is therefore very much to, the
point that budget, taxation and fin
ancial matters generally should be
presented on a tribune such as 4>ress
or radio where the whole people can
hear and pass judgment. ,
Naturally taxpayers are in favor
of tax reductions just as they are
in favor of lower prices on goods
and services they buy. In neither
case, however, do they want these
boons at the expense of real and
indispensable services. Mr. Jaokman
who is an expert financial analyst,
did them Tuesday night the service
of placing the whole matter before
them in terms of the average family
contribution to Dominion revenue
and of showing them what reduct^ms
in expenses would reduce income
taxes. His suggestions have the un
deniable appeal that they would re
duce taxation in all the lower brack
ets of income and thus make a real
contribution toward meeting the ris
ing cost of living.
Mr. Jackman estimates that last
year’s taxes totally $800 per family,
one-third of it came from income
taxes, and the rest from customs,
excise, luxury and sales taxes, taxes
on corporations, interest, dividends
and death duties. One-quarter of the
$800 goes to pay interest and cannot
be avoided; $47 goes to disabled vet
erans and pensioners and everybody
wants that to continue; one-half of
the $800 went to demobiliaztion and
re-establishment costs, national de
fence and war contract terminations,
which are mainly over. It would be
a simple matter for the government
to reduce by a large part of $400
per family if it-did not have further
plans to increase expenditures in
other directions.
The chance of the public therefore
to get substantial cuts in income
taxes is to give social legislation
close attention. Every scheme has
to be paid by the taxpayers eventu
ally. Thb State itself produces noth-
ing. Those who are exempt from in
come taxes do not escape taxes be
cause of that. Taxes they do not
know about appear in all they buy.
Of the average $800 payment per
family, old age and blind pensions
take $13, family allowances take
$94, subsidies on bread, butter,
cheese, cptton goods, coal and so on
take $34. If we want them we must
pay for them. Do we want to pay
$3,500 a day for a short-wave -broad
casting station to foreign countries?
Do we want to pay $2 million a year
so that the present government can
maintain a National Film Board?

What incentive to risk money when
government takes most of the profit
and will not share losses? If the
United States cuts income taxes 20
per cent across the board as project

The change in exemption affecting
married women, says >Mr. Jackman,
was “an unusually bad one” and
should be remedied. The excess pro

MATHEW HENRY JARRETT
PASSES IN HAMILTON
The death of Mathew Henry Jar
rett of Cayuga, beloved husband of
Sara Ann Elliott, occurred Sunday,
at St. Joseph’s Hospital, Hamilton,
where he had been admitted on Wed
nesday, following a seizure at his
home. He died without regaining
consciousness.
Gertie—I’m afraid Bertie suffers
from matrimonial dispepsia.
Reginald—What’s that?
Gertie—Oh, you know—his wife
doesn’t agree with him.
The first rate of taxation is 22-per
cent above the exempted amount
and the taxpayer will therefore put
the matter to himself thus: “Would
I rather spend that 22 per cent my
self or have the government spend
it and how much would I prefer the
government to spend for me? That
question becomes much sharper for
all incomes that have to pay from
SO to 85 per cent.
. From the standpoint of government also, high taxes are undesir
able because they lessen the work
output of both brain and manual
residents of Ingersoll.
The funeral was held on Tuesday
with interment in Riverside Ceme

O'Hara smiled grimly. “I’m onduty. Creuse and I will bunk here.
I hope the Inner room has some

A shudder ran through her, she
put her hand to her throat witha gesture of suffocation, and he
saw again that look of wide-eyedterror that he had seen first at
French Pete's. Suddenly he realised all It must mean to this wo
man; in that room her husbandhad suffered from his wounds, and
the girl, Ninon Creuse, with herCree, had nursed him. From this
house the two, Oharlan and the
girl, had gone out mysteriously tomeet their tragic end.
O'Hara understood and, for anInstant, thought she swayed. Her
eyes a lm os t closed. Then sh*rallied, and lifted her head brave

Partly because of the novelty of
the new arrivals and partly because
the monetary investment is still
fresh in mind, baby chicks often re
ceive closer attention during the
first few weeks than they do later
on. When the chicks are four to five
weeks old their apparent robustness
tends to lull the poultry keeper into
a sense of having passed the danger
point, says W. Mountain, Acting
Head Poultry Keeper, Dominion Ex
perimental Station, Harrow, Ont.
Compensations for vigilance are
gained when, by the early detection

the addition of green food and milk
to the diet increased the resistance
to parasitic infection to a large ex
tent. Also early chicks, while not
entirely immune, seem to be able to
withstand coccidiosis better than
chicks from later hatches.
Blood stained droppings may or
may not be observed depending on
the type of coccidia present, but
where a slackening of appetite is
noticed and birds with ruffled feath
ers, and a forbid appearance are
seen, then a program of strict sani
tation is advisable. Daily changing
of the litter and scalding the feed
and water utensils will do much to
halt the progress of the disease.
Where young birds are confined
during the night and let out in the
mornigs it is a good plan to watch
the actions of the stragglers. As a
rule infected birds prefer the shelter
and warmth of their abode to the
fresher atmosphere outside and in
tihs manner tend to segregate them
selves. These visibly affected birls
should be removed.

The Thamesford Y’s Men’s Clubmet in the parish hall of St. John’sAnglican Church last Monday evening with 25 members present. Clayton Ironside of Kintore, showed sev
eral reels of motion pictures he had
taken including views of Algonquin
Park, the Niagara Peninsula, Point
Pelee, Kingsville and local scenes.

THE INGERSOLL TRIBUNE THURSDAY, MAR. 6, 1947OTTAWAWEEK BY WEEK— By M. L. Schwarts —
PRESSURE FOR DECONTROL
Finance Minister Abbott has start
ed something with his announcement
on certain relaxations of rental con
trols for commercial properties of
accommodation in resort hotels and
boarding houses and houses pur
chased between Oct. 81st, 1944, and
July 25, 1945, since these decontrols
have encouraged pressure groups
who have been seeking a chance to
boost rentals on private housing ac
commodation across Canada. How
ever, the view in Ottawa is that, for
the time being anyhow no drastic
changes are likely to be forthcoming
even if it is reported that the auth
orities here are being flooded by re
quests from organized property own-
ers'and smaller landlords for imme
diate relief, but it is hinted at the
same time that there is no assurance
that some sort of relaxation
regard may not be affected
the end of 1947.
1, 1946, to March 31, 1947, totaled114,250,000 according to a reportin thia capital and the actual expenditures from April 1. 1946, to Dee.31, 1946, the latest informationavailable, have been no less than atotal of *9,381,731.86. Breaking
down these totals it is found that
the W.P.T.B. has spent the following
amounts in the last mentioned period:
Salaries, *6,663,888.17; travelling
expenses *758,005.87; printing and
staitonery, *358,819.55; telephones
and telegrams, *164,949.62; advertis
ing, *205,660.27, and sundries, in
cluding local ration boards and ration
coupon banking costa, *1,230,407.88.
These actual expenditures offer an
idea of the cost of maintaining the
operations of the W.P.T.B, during a
nine-months. period ending Dec. 31,
1946.

“The initial price of *1.35 a
bushel was not a gamble in any
sense,” said in the House of Com
mons, Hon. James Gardiner, Agri
culture Minister in discussing Can
ada's wheat price. “It was arrived
at by taking the average marketings
of wheat over a long period in Can
ada and calculating that if that
wheat was marketed at *1.55 for
the first two years of the contract,
taking into consideration the fact
that one year’s wheat had already
been marketed at a price of at least
*1.55 and the further fact that it
would be marketed for another two
years at *1.55 at least then should
the price drop to the minimium price
of *1.25 provided in the contract for
the third year and if it dropped
again to *1 in the fourth year, there
should be enough money obtained
for the wheat to pay the farmer
*1.35 a bushel without any person
in Canada outside the farmers pay
ing one cent of it”
On the other hand, Hon. John
Bracken, leader of the Official Op
position, declared in Parliament
among other things that “the Gov
ernment is selling the farmers’ 1946
wheat crop for *100,000,000 less
than it would bring at the world
market price.”
A great'many questions have been
asked and answered so far in this
session of parliament, These being
unusually interesting indications of
the kind of information being sought
by members from all sections of this
country. Consequently, it is timely
to report that the Speaker of the
House of Commons, -Dr. Gaspard
Fauteux, has made a statement in
Parliament, which seems to en
deavour to curtail the present prac
tice of asking many oral questions
on the orders of the day instead of
having the questions placed on the
order paper for later reply. In other
words, the Speaker has suggested
that oral questions might be con
fined to those involving urgency and
he has proposed that members, in
tending to ask such questions should
provide him with a copy of the ques
tion in advance as well as the min
ister involved.
ACUTE SHORTAGE
"There simply are not enough
boxcars to go round but the Trans
port Controller is doing his best to
see that those available are equitably
distributed so that no industry has to
shut down for want of supplies,”
said Transport Minister Chevrier in
Parliament in explaining the ex
tremely critical situation in shipping
in this country owing to the shortage
of thousands of boxcars and the ne
cessity of moving wheat, feed, pulp
and paper and other commodities,
with a flood of demands for such box
cars from various sources forcingthe Tr^hsport Controller B. S. Liber
ty, to create a strict priority system.
Moreover, stories about getting such
supplies from the United States can
be discounted since the boxcar short
age is continent-wide and it is equally
acute in theAUnited States. However
some industries are doing everything

WORLD FOOD POSITION
SLIGHTLY IMPROVED
In the third quarterly world food
appraisal by the Food and Agricul
ture Organization of the United Na
tions (FAO), it is stated that the
world position is slightly improved.
Throughout the appraisal, the period
under consideration, is the consump
tion year, July, 1946-June, 1947.
The world food situation, says the
report, is slightly better in 1946-47
than it was in 1945-46, though the
report points out that close study of
the figures gives little reason for
optimism. Food production in the
war-damaged areas of Europe, the
Union of the Soviet Socialist Repub
lics, and the Orient is beginning
slowly to recover. The fact that ex-
ports are not keeping pace with pro
duction is accounted for by transpor
tation difficulties, depleted stocks,
price increases, decontrol and the
termination of the United Nations
Relief and Rehabilitation Administra
tion. (UNRRA.)as follows:—

SPRING PLOUGHINGan interpretation of contour ploughing by I. E. Collier.
In parts of China, topsoil has become so precious that men
have been known to steal it by the handful from more fortunate neighbours. Millions of tons of our productive topsoil
are washed into the sea every, year. Scientific farming—
contour ploughing, strip cropping and terracing—checksthe devastation and* poverty brought about by soil erosion.
* ’’With Canada's economy hinging on agriculture, impro
per use of our soil affects the entire nation. Both the citydweller and the farmer benefit from soil-conserving practices,
