ious firms producing the yarn for export have had a price fixing agree- ment. Under this arrangement, no firm would sell its output under a certain price.

Some time ago Parliament passed the Restrictive Practices Act. Under its provisions, a special court called the Restrictive Practices Court is re quired to outlaw any price fixing agreement, unless a number of con- ditions are met: One is that the plan benefits the general public; another is that its abolition would contribute seriously to unemployment.

In its first ruling the Court set aside the agreement of the Lanca- shire Yarn Spinners Association, on the ground that the agreement was contrary to the public interest and that the price of yarn was too high. It also held that the agreement handi- capped the export trade because of high prices. The Court agreed that the abolition of the agreement might |

STILL COLD ENOUGH FOR SNOWBALLS

One of the important.-decisions that must be made soon concerns the appointment of our next Gov- ernor-General. Adequate tribut- es will of course be paid to the great services performed by Mr Massey, when he retires; no one will deny that Canadians are still further indebted to him, after his - distinguished term of office. His quiet dignity and efficiency have earned him nation-wide respect and regard.

But quite apart from his un- questioned personal abilities, his appointment raised wider issues of constitutiond importance There were fears, seven years ago, that the appointment of a Canadian to this office, for the first time in the history of the Do- minion might appear to lessen the status of the office, and ‘to

relic of political control from Whitehall, and a subtler convic- tion that the constitutional fune- tions of monarchy are no longer so necessary in our present situa- thon.

Are these reasons really ade- qQate? In the first place, no one today could doubt Canada’s po- litical maturity. Second, only the most biassed observers could now believe that Great Britain wish- @s to subjugate the members of the Commonwealth to centraliz- ed rule. And third, a clearer up- derstanding of the functions of the Governor-General may re- veal opportunities of which the advantages have not yet been realized.

WAY NOW OPEN

‘Thewxa y is surely open for the consideration of a Commonwealth Governor-General, who would be selected for neither purely per- | sonal, nor purely nationalistic, reasons.

What would be the advantag- es of such an idea? To appoint a Governor-Gener- from another Commonwealth country, besides Britain, would surely deomonstrate, in a most tangible form, Canadian assur- ance that the Commonwealth connections are effective and welcome means of uniting coun- tries, which, though geographic- ally distant, share the same pol- | ical beliefs.

For example, in Numbers one through five, the joint symptoms must continue for a period uf at least six weeks before the trouble can be considered as rheuma- toid arthritis.

For a diagnosis of definite rheu- matoid arthritis, at least five of the points must be present. And for a diagnosis of possible rheu- matoid arthritis, at least two of them must be observed by a phy- sician. -
