COLD STORAGE

Wlio is there that has not heard of the iniquity ofcold‘storage? And who is there that would not: plunge to the neck in this same iniquity if the oppor- tunity offered or if his vision penetrated far enougl; into the future to..show him the profitableness of it.

When an individual or a corporation'corners all the food in sight and stores it until starvation compels the'public to buy it at the individual’s or the corpor- ation’s price. that is iniquity pure and unadulterated and the Old and the New Testaments have several uglv names for it. Yet the individual or the corpor- atidn becomes Wealthy. organizes and maintains in- dustries, gives employment to thousands and seat- ters dollars among those who were robbed and starv ed by the original monopoly.

it is a sad reflection upon _ . world’s progress today that it cannot be maintained otherwise than by cold storage. The farmer who keeps his eye on the market holds his produce from fall till spring andoften into the summer in order to receive the highest price and his neighbors commend his business shrewdneSS. This is cold. storage on a small scale. Had he sold his produce in the fall the consumers would have had their Winter supply at a e— nough to have bought up his neighbors produce at the, low figure and held all till spring he would not have injured his neighbors who were prepared to sell; on the contrary he would have benefited them and en- riched himself. The consumers, it is true, would have paid more for their food but along these lines the foresighted farmer becomes rich» And who copld blame him? True, the‘system would be encroaching upon the spirit. of the Golden Rule but that is another story. _

The merchant, the railway corporation, the steamship company, the manufacturer, all _make their money by cold storage, that is, by buying in; the cheapest market, obtaining a monopoly and hold ing it until the market is compelled to pay the price demanded. Labor has cornered its products and holds a monopoly which compels the employer to pay-the price. In our fox business we openly advocate co- operative holding and feeding the market as it is. ready to absorb the product, otherwise silver fox fur would be as cheap as calfskins. And so hrough all

our activities, conimerCial and industrial we pin our

the character of the

individual faith to cold storage while anathematiz-‘

ing the others who practise it.

Like other virtues or other _ may be, cold storage is growing. In many cases it has been carried too far. The recent. incident in the sugar business is an example; the monopoly was car. lied to a point where it broke and the monopolists were caught in their own trap. Labor also has Carried its monopoly to a point at which its price could not be met and there have been lock outs. Ev- en the cold storage of eggs. meats, fish and other foods has been carried to a point at which thousands of tons of food had spoiled and there were incalcul- able losses. _ I

Cold storage therefore, a safe and sane business proposition up to a certain point, may become a dan- gerous implement to handle and it is possible that its danger might be at least minimized by a little admixture of the Golden Rule which is perhaps taken too little stock in in our Twentieth Century progress.

In view no doubt of the early sitting of the legislature, Easter being early this year, ‘the Patriot yesterday opened a campaign evidently in justi- fication of the continued existence of the Bell gov— ernment. It begs the whole qiiestion at issue of course and attempts to make out that the govern- ment has been unjustifiably attacked and criticized simply because of its efforts to make ends meet. It alleges that the Arsenault government did not de- clare the true state ,of the' finances before the elect-

ion and that the Bell government were taken .‘by'

surprise at the alleged deficit discovered when they formally took charge. This is very plausible no doubt but it is white wash that will deceive no one. Mr. Bell and his colleagues were familiar with the fin- ancial state of the province at the time of the elect- ion. The Public Accounts were in their hands; the Public Accounts committee held sittings during pre ceding sessions; the outside auditor's reports were in

their hands; Premier. Arsenault's estimates for the '

then current

car had been fully discussed in the Committee

ays and Means. Notwithstanding all

this the Bell aggregation went to the country attackg

ing the Arsenaiﬂtgovernment on the ground of its alleged extravagance-and asserting that it was pos- sible to make "ends; meet without the assistance of the-'War and Health tax .by'cutting down the salar- ies, dismissing useless officials and generally practic ing economy. The country took them at their word and returned them to power. No sooner were they in office than they initiated a new taxation act with a view, in the words of the Attorney General, of tax- ing everything tangible and intangible. The first charge t ey made on these new taxes was an in»
