NATIONAL PRIDE INVOLVED

Marks adds that by the dictum of these ”arrogant Socialists" the lumpen are the ordinary decent folk of Britain-"the peopll win meekly pay their taxes. who light the wars, who still are about patriotism." '

Some 1 political observers are surprised at the extent to which public opinion in Britain has ral- lied to the government's dcfeno. Ever since the Suez crisis began last July 26. there seemed tu be

decisive action. but there is agree- ment now that their numbers have been swollen.

If it is true that Britons gener- ally now support a policy of in- tervention, it may be that the hardening of opinion arises from national pride. Various factors such as British troops going into action, a sense of isolation in re- lation to Commonwealth and world opinion. resentment at United States policies. fear that loss of the Middle East would mean a big drop in British prestige and standard of living. have prob- ably combined to arouse a backs- to - the - wall aplrlt--a blend of dogged determination and out- raged patrlotism. Such a mood could havis a consideraule political significance.

Base of the improvement to some extent is the continuing march of Canadian housewives to the grocery store. With breadwln- ners earning more. housewives to buy more food, with a sharper eye on quality.

Retail prices increased. In June at Toronto the price of grade A

Some housewives that all their house money was going into food. They grumbled but continued to buy potatoes and apples when poor weather re- d ced crops and prices lumped. They bought better cuts of meat at higher prices. Canadian beef production could barely keep pace with consumption.

CHANGING TREND

While many farm markets strengthened. the farm industry appeared to be undergoing change. Fewer Canadians are going into farming. The number farm operators dropped in June to 531.000 from 574.000 a year previous. It was about the lowest figure in the last half-cen-
