400 Yeifoia Turks Head Inn Is Condemned

LONDON. Sept. ll-The lighter- men of Wapplng have a Grievance, writes the Morning Post.

Their complaint, voiced in lang- uage of imaginative ripeness and vigor, is that several of their fav- orite public houses in London's dockiand are threatened with com- pulsory closure on the score of re- dundancy.

The Grievance arose when the licensing authorities in the Tower Hill division. decred that '1"l licens- ed premises in this area must go. Two of these, the British Queen and the Victory, were actually in the same street-Whitehorse-lane Step- ney.

But the crowning blow was the condemning of the 400-year-old Turk's Head, on the Wapping war. erfront. This inn, a haunt of Cap- tain Pryde and his pirate associates. is dwarfed by the warehouses on either side, but its timbers are stoutiy built. While retaining the atmosphere’of a saloon in which sea-dogs were wont to brandish their cutlasses and roar for noggins of rum, the place shows no signs of dilapidation.

Captain Love, the landlord, is at a loss to understand the motives of the licensing justices in number- ing the days of this historic tavern. The river bank is not overstocked with inns, let alone a landmark such as the Turks Head, which ex- isted. centuries back, for the prim- ary purpose of selling quarts of ale tg hapless pirates on their last journey to Execution Dock, hard

y.

"It is not my own position that matters a scrap," he said recently. "There is, of course, the matter of compensation. But the lightermen and dock laborers who work on the ships and warehouses in the dis- trict have always regarded the place as a second home, To say that they feel strongly about it; being pulled down is-well, to put it mildly."

The justices‘ verdict was given in April. Captain Love appealed for the retention of his licence, but. less than a month ago, the original decision was confirmed. The Turk's Head today is branded as “redund- ant." Not one drop of beer may be sold in its bar after June, 1936. Then it will probably be demolished to make room for a warehouse.

Imperial Airways _Seek New ‘Croydon’

CROYDON, Sept. li—lmperial Airways are searching for a site for a great new airport to accommodate their rapidly-expanding services.

Croydon has reached the limit of its capacity for air- traffic. and the company are contemplating an en- tlrely separate base for flying boats for the Empire routes and the pro- posed Atlantic service. No fewer than 26 sites have been under con- sideration. nearly all on the South Coast. including Southampton Wa- iter and Chichester Harbor. but a lfinal decision has not yet been reached.

An official of Imperial Airways stated that. the Croydon Airport, which belonged to the Air Ministry. was becoming more and more con- gested. and it was increasingly ob- vious that the company would soon have to find a home of their own.

Every site on the South Coast which appeared suitable for a new airport, was being considered, but the company would be glad to ex- amine any other scheme which ap- peared likcly to meet their require- menis.

The Air Ministry, nounoement, said:

"No decision has yet been taken as to the base of operations fir." flying boats operating from this country over the Empire air routes. The matter is under active consid- eration, but it is quite impractic- able to make any statement at the rpesent time. "

Banish Poverty By Credit Plan, _ Aberharifs Aim

’ B! J. F. SANDERSON Canadian Pres Staff Writer

EDMONTON. Sept. iL-Willlam Aberhart, Calgary high school teacher and evangelist, in taking over the office of premier of Al- berta. id heading the first social M96115 Bovernment in the world- Three years ago, Aberhart started to organize a. party and sell his economic theories Io the people of 'the province of Alberta. He was so successful at the provincial general ‘election August 22 he swept the United Farmers of Alberta from ofiice, not oneof their candidates ‘winning a. seat. The Aberhart '_foroes walked away with the elec- tion, winning 50 out of 63 seats.

The object of social credit. a rev- olutionary financial and economic "system, is to overhaul the present set-up. Proponents of the system ‘claim the basis of the depression rests on the fact the gross income of Canadians. or Americans. does not equal national production. Their solution is to enlist the national credit, to bonus every citizen of the country-or province. in this in- stanoe-so national income equals national production. They claim this will start up the wheels of in- dustry, eliminate relief and unem- ployment and banish poverty from the land.

The basis of the Aberhart system of social credit is a monthly pay- ment of $25 to every adult and les- ser sums to every child in the pro- vince, It will not be in money but in non-negotiable credit certifi- cates. They will have the same backing as bonds, the national wealth of the province,

At the first of the month every man will present his pass-book to the government clearing house where a credit entry of $25 will be made. With it, the man will be able to pay his grocer, butcher or any- one else to whom he owes money.

Because the credit is non-nego- tiable, the grocer must present the certificate to the clearing house where his account will be credited with the amount. In return, he will be given a certificate for that amount of money with which he can pay his bills. In this manner, the credit circulates.

Aberhart hopes he can convince the chartered banks-me cannot in- icrfere with them because they are licensed by the Dominion-to co- operate with him. If he can, l-he banks will operate as clearing houses. having the expense of pro- vincial offices.

Creating Credit.

In this manner, $10,000,000 in credit will be issued monthly. Aberhart. like all proponents of social credit, insists bank's create 'credit out of nothing and he can see no reason why he should not do t be same thing. He points to a bank making a loan, which is the same thing as issuing credit, by in- structing a clerk to make an entry in a ledger. This automatically creates a deposit. When the loan is paid, the deposit is wipel out and the ledger balanced by making an- other entry. Thus. the credit was created out of nothing and it cost the bank only the time of the clerk plus a few cents for paper and ink.

But if Aberhart continued to pump $10,000,000 monthly into the

credit system of the province with- out. some form of withdrawal, prices would soar sky-high and the whole system collapse on him. With this in mind. he has drafted a system of credit withdrawal by which he will remove at the end of each month, the amount he isued at the start.

This withdrawal will be made through a turnover tax or, as Aber- hart terms it, an unearned incre- ment levy. Every‘ time a farmer sells n bushel of wheat, he will pay a tax. When the miller grinds the wheat into flour. he will be taxed. Similarly, the baker will be taxed. Aberhart calculates he will receive about 65 cents when a bushel of wheat is processed into bread. The

same principle will apply to all ‘goods processed or marketed in Alberta. To guard against price increases. Aberhart will appoint a board to set fair figures-Because Alberta is an agricultural province, he will set minimum prices for some products. If, for instance, a fair price of 75 cents were set for wheat and the y world price was 65, the government

would bonus farmers by _10 cents. ‘at. the same time withdrawing its i usual turnover tax.

Fixing Prices

All through the election campaign and since then, Aberhart has been as vague as possible on details of his scheme and this appllefi PBYI-lfi" ularly to his price-fixing system. His object will be to raise prices for producers and lOl‘.'.‘l‘ them for con- sumers. This fantastic-sounding object. he says, will be attained by compressing the price spread by means of his turnover tax and in- creasing sales and production by the improved purchasing power of the people.

‘There are other planks in the Aberhart platform. the exact from of which, only time will tell. He intends to issue production loans to farmers without interest and to manufacturers as well. Through these loans, he hopes to influence manufacturers in the east lo drop their prices because he claims a far- mer who has no interest to pay is a better risk than one whose inter- est. payments eet. up his whole in-

how he intends to handle pricesof manufactured goods from the east.

The social credit leader insists his scheme does not involve confis- cation of wealth or loss of individ- ual initiative. There will be no re- pudiation of bonds, he emphasizes. not only by the province but mun- icipallties and individuals as well.

The basic dividends are calculat- ed to provide the necessities of life and every man will be entitled to add as much as he can through ivages or investments. Provincial baby-bonds will be sold for invest- merits.

Abcrhart claims his social credit system would not interfere with foreign payments. External ac- counts would be paid just as they are today. The debtor would pur- chase a postofiice money order, for instance, paying with a credit oer- i-ificaie, The money order would be cashed and the debt transferred io the government, forming part of its actual balance of trade.
