In one case as in the other, thc government continues though the P61“ sonnel be changed. The fact that Prcmier 10H“ and his chief colleagues, Messrs. Barbour and Hughes, were mere back-bcnchers under the Campbell regime doesn't alter the situation one iota.

Safeguard Of Liberty

Rtllon. Lord “fright told the Canadian Bar Association Convention at Winnipeg last Week that the safeguard of British liberty is the su- premacy of law, which can be changed only b)’ the act of a free and responsible Legislature. Lawyers and judges know this. Thcy have watched Government authority delegated by Ordcr-iri-Council to all kinds of bodies and indi- viduals having no responsibility to the Legis- lature; and as surely as a governmental bnrcfltl- cracy never relinquishes what it can hold an uii- riceded proportion of these bodies will stick per- mancntly.

The Bar Association, suggests the Globe and Mail, advisedly might star: a revival in the inan- ner of the evangelical crusader to prepare p60- plc to return to first principles. The ballot has been losing its significance when, in times like these, it should be more precious than evcr. Tlllls the first step in responsible government is hall‘ ing; and it follows that if the elector; don't carc- the legislators will take the easy way, which 18 always to obey the bosses. The Bar wants the country administered through legal mactmcnts rather than bureaucratic regulations, and un- doubtedly would prefer laws that reflect the will of the people through elected representatives. A! present the operation of many laws 0n the St-‘itlltr- books is suspended. The danger i: that four, five or six years of this sort of government will make dcatl letters of too many laws unless there is an awakening of the public conscience on respon- sibility.

The Food Situa lion

Agricultural productivity in Canada. has suf- fered marked lIDPZLlFIIICIIL at a time when food rcqiiirciticnts are greater than fiver before. The problem is dealt with somewhat pcssimistically by a Wflltl‘ in the current Canadian Business. liigh farm production goals set by Official ztillllurilitls for the current year-for examplc, about 2o per cent increase over i942 in meats and eggs and 6 per cent in dairy products-—will

ment. Before farm purchasing power hid been restored to a normal level the lttpply of all mech- anical equipment had been druticllly curtailed. Thus, farmers’ purchases in the five-year period 1936-40, estimated as about half thOsc in i928, were insufficient to replace material worn Out in the early i930's. Last year the supply of new equipment was cut by onefifth, and this year to Oflc-lilllfd of that available in i940. The supply of parts for repairs, however, was fixed at 65 1 per cent more than in i940.

Another serious problem is that of‘ farm labor shortage, which will likely increase as the war continues.

The estimate of the Canadian Business writer for crop production-fodder, grains, roots and vegetables—for all Canada is about one-third be- low that of last year's bumper output. The im- mediate supply of food will not be reduced pro- portionately, for with record livestock holdings, good pasturage and reserve feed stocks, the V011 time of meats and dairy products can‘ be main- tained at, even slightly increased above, the pres- ent level. But it is predicted that the overall sup- ply of food will decline in the next few months by at least io per cent, and that the civilian POP“- lntinn. will find an even greater cut in its dict be fore the next crop year.

The mzijor responsibility of sending food t0 Russia and North Africa has been undertflkcn by the United States, while Britain sends the kind of supplies she can better spare. This means that. while America will try to make up British dc- pleted reserve stocks, she cannot expect the ample and varied quotas she has received in the past. Britain may even have to accept further ration cuts and a reduction in points values. Ulti- mately the state of the national larder must de- pend upon military requirements and the ship-
