Motor Gasoline

.?__..

‘Iliere is no prospect at present of motorists obtaining a larger supply of gasoline, and the present ration may be reduced, all depending on the progress of the war in Europe, according to a recent statement in Parliament by Hon. C.

D. Howe.

"If the Allies are able to win a reasonably quick overpowering victory," he said, "our position ivill probably not deteriorate to the point of further curtailment, due entirely to the cori- servation measures wc have introduced and en- forced. lf, lroivever, the invasion should de- velop iiito a lung bitter struggle. there is a prob- ability that we may all have to do with less gas-

flii in Cziuadzt."

The Nlinister‘ ivzrs answering the reports that the supply’ of gasoline ivas not so short as it was represented to he, and he showed the very heavy demands for both motor and avia-

tion gasoline for ivat" purposes.

It requires 2,000 gallons of fuel to move an armored division one mile, and a fleet of 5.000 bombers and escort fighters raiding Ger- many uses up some 5,250,000 gallons of avia-

tion gasoline. "These fighting men iiitist not

lack fuel for one single instant because of our

carelessness, selfishness, or waste," he said.

The request made to motorists in 1942 for the voluntary saving of gasoline reduced consuinp-

tion by only 30,000,000 gallons. Rationing was then adopted and consumption was lowered by 156000.000 gallons. In spite of the saving through rationing, the inventories on March 31 last were 55,000,000 gallons less than at the commencement of rationing, when the stocks on hand were "uncomfortably low." Consequently, the Minister declared that "this is not a time for other than the most es- sential driving.” He stated that misuse of petroleum products “has been kept to very small proportions through the vigilance of the Gcv- ernment's enforcement officers." But there is still considerable abuse of the rationing system. Greater activity of the Government in check- ing it, would encourage the best response to the appeal now necessarily made to all motorists.

_____________*___ The Shoe Changes Feel

Senator W. M. Aseltine says electoral re- form is needed to prevent minority candidates from being elected to the House of Commons. He says the single transferable vote should be adopted for single-member tidings, and pro- portional representation for the multi-member tidings.

What moves the Senator from Saskatche- wan (who \\‘ll§ defeated when he ran for the House in I926) at the present is the spectacle of his own province where, he says, the C. C. F. won 90 per cent of the seats with 53 per cent of the total vote.

However, notes an exchange. a little study of the records shows this as nothing new, ex- cept in the name of the party that won. In both the i934 and i938 Saskatchewan elections the Liberals won lieavily—inore than 90 per cent of seats in 1935, and around 77 per cent in r938—with less than 5o p21‘ cent of the total vote on each occasion.

The Senator says a similar "landslide" could take place Federally. Evidently he has his eye on the C. LI F.. as he would hardly be calling for electoral reform to keep his own party out of office.

Demands for electoral reform. curiouslv enough, are switching ovcr to the old parties. lt used to be that this sort of thing came from the so-callcrl radicals who ivcre always tip to something to keep the two older parties from making it a straight two-way fight. But now that parties of a different liuc are getting into power. or threatening to get there, it is a Coir- scrvative who is calling for reform which. in the good old (lays, \\.‘llLll(l have been heresy.

Religion And Life

AmOng recent publications is "Worship and the Common Life." By Eric Heyinan, NLA. (Cambridge Vniversiry- Press). Tihe need for the integration of religion and life. of the de- votional attitude as expressed in worship with the ethical as expanding into social action is. or should be, clear enough to all who are cori- vinced that apart from religion there is no highway through life and no end that either ex- plains or justifies it; and, therefore, to Chris- tians Mr. l'lc_vnran's book is written round this central theme. The author is a member of the Society of Friends, who combines in a remark- able way a deep sense of the Vfllllt! of thr- wit- ness of that Society and the belief that iii the work of integration it has a particular vocation to fulfil with a very strong hold upon those conceptions of chirrchnianship with which the term “Cathnlic" is generally associated. He is, in particular, profoundly Sacramental in his whole outlook. though he has his defence of the Quaker disuse of those Sacramental ordinances which mean so much for the great majority of Christians. He feels keenly the need for Chris- tian iiriity. If "the common life of man is to be

tal worship,” and for this there must be "the eUective realization of intercommunion between

all who are one in Christ." In the the question of the relationship o

of Friends to the Christian Churcl and in connection with re-unioii, is posed, if not solved. Earlier chapters, such as “The In- dividual in the Common Life,” rather suffer Tim from an attempt to say too much, and what is said is not always said with sufficient iniplicity. But much is said wisely and arrestingly, as, for instance, when Mr. Heyman criticizes the ex- tremes of humanism and of the Borkian the- ology. The reader who will take trouble over it will find much in this book that will make

him think and help him to think.
