C Cost-of-Living Climb Not Yet In, Sight, Ottawa Survey Indicates

OTTAWA. Nov. 30 — (C?) - Thc end of the cost-of-living climb is not yet in sight.

Though the living-cost barometer showed a slowing in the rate of ascension this month, a Govern- ment agency today indicated it may be going up for some time to come.

In a survey of the Canadian economic situation, the Economics Division of the Agricultural De- instrument's Marketing Service said ivliolesale prices in the last five months of the year may be up another 2 1/2 to five per cent over the 7 I/Z-per-cent-rise for the first seven months.

While wholesale prices ere not tied directly to the cost-of-llving index, officials said today they are reflected substantially in living costs.

A wholesale price jump lri the late stages of this year. one offici- al said, might. be expected to be felt on retail counters next year, probably as late as six months away.

The wholesale index wag climb- irix rapidly toward the all-time high recorded in 1920, and in- dications were it would go past. that ,mark by the year-end.

The 1020 peak was i602. based on the 1926 average as 100. from the start of this year until Sept.

1. the wholesale index had mov from 146.9 to 158.2. '

Meanwhile the general cost-of- living index - in which 100 is represented by the 1935-39 average -- had kept pace with a climb from 148.3 to 158.9. A month later. at Oct. 1. the living cost. index was at 159.6.

Besides increasing wholesale costs, another factor that will be reflected In the remaining indexes for this year will be the Govern- ment's October hoisting of domestic rent ceilings. This will not show up until the index for Dec. 1. to be announced about a month from now.

Just when the predicted whole- sale increases will hit the con- sumers’ costs will depend on where the wholesale rises materialize. The time lag between wholesale and re- tail increases varies with the pro- duct affected.

For instance. variations in the wholesale prices of fresh foods show up quickly at: the retail end, within a month. Raw cotton might take between three and four months to hit the price tags on men's shirts. Other materials such as steel might take up to six months. depending on the size of stockpiles along the line of distri- button.

VICTORIA, Nov. 30—(CP)—Gov- ernrnent leaders said today the British Columbia Government would continue as a union of Lib- erals and Progressive Conservatives despite recent attacks on the coa- llilon.

The restatement of policy follow- ed l.\\'O Provincial by-elections yes- terday in which the Government lost. one seat to the C. C. F. but re- tained the other.

Attorney-General Gordon S. Wis- mer. a Liberal, said in a state- ment that the Government was re-_ cl cted in 1945 as a coalition. "We

opose to carry on in accordance

with the mandate we received from the people.” ' The coalition was criticized by the B. C. Young Liberals Associa- tion at the Association's annual convention Saturday. They demand- ed its dissolution arid resolved that the next provincial election. which may come in 1949, should be fought on direct Liberal policies.

The coalition comprises 20 Lib-

erall under Premier Byron John- son and 16 Progressive Conserva- tives, led by Finance Minister Her- bert Anscomb. The C. C. F. is the official Opposition with 11 seats in the 48-seat House while Labor holds the other.

Political observers saw the young Liberals’ action as a revolt against Premier Johnson. He was reported to have made a direct appeal to the young Liberals to support coa- lition. The Association said the telegram containing they appeal never reached the convention.

The Government lost one seat to the C. C. F. yesterday when James Quinn. 42-year-old shop steward. won Trall-Rossland over Alexander Turribull by 4.743 votes to 4,471. with one poll still to NEPOTL In the South Okanagan riding. Robe-r: Browne-Clayton. 31-year-old fruit. rancher retained the seat, defeating his C.C.F‘. opponent, Bruce Woods- worth. 34-year-old school teacher. by 4.918 to 4,220.

“The Scot. is an eternal argo- naui. a wanderer upon the face of the earth. And he is.a mountain- eer of the mind," said the speaker. He recounted the legend in which Scottish ancestors roamed afar seeking the land of the Ever- ydung on the rim of the mists. They sought the Isle of the Siesta and found Prince Edward Island. where they settled. They built schools, churches and courthouses. Eager for reform. they never for- got the past.

“Some like all things new." said Dr. Macmillan. "But let us re- member that the Scottish never destroy the past." He referred to the old legend in which the "spirits of our Scottish ancestors come into the present and save us.

‘I'll lay me down to rest a while

‘And rise to fight again.’

"That's the spirit that the world needs today." the speaker conclud- ed.

Reds Make To Hamper Of Crisis In

BY THOMAS A. REEDY BERLIN. Nov. 30 —- (AP) The Communists spilt Berlin wide open tonight by naming their own rump government.

The putsch was stesmrollered through a hand-picked convention in a musical-comedy hall in the Soviet. sector. The chairman read the ticket in rapid fire style, all fists shot. into the air at his call for a show of hands, the meeting and election were over in 1 1/2 hours.

Then about 100,000 syrnDathizers held a somewhat placid rally in the chill damp air of Unter Den Linden at which speakers called for support of the new regime and denounced the regularly elected government now sitting in West Berlin. Everylliiiig wont smoothly and there was no violence.
