BRUSHTNG HAIR GOOD FOB LOCKS

There is a growing beauty cult in Hollywood rind New York which makes a fetish or brushing hair like mad after it has been set.

It is the boast oi’ one actress- member of this cult that she has her pin curls brushed for n half hour before her hair is dessed. ‘That's an extreme example of put- ting a good idea to work, the idea being that bruslrlng improves curls rather than destroys them.

Too many women are afraid of brushing their hair for fear of wrecking curls cr Wuvefi- A5 0

drive fifty-two miles by roac to

get from Borden to here. The dir-

ect route is thirty miles.

"This afternoon it was my priv-

ilege to drive out with Dr. Mac-

Mlllan and Mr. Bell and see the

site of this so-called Brighton

bridge project. I think this is some- 1 thin: that ought to be done; it is. just fair play and common sense. ' “Alsp with regard to the wood! Islands-Caribou service. So-ne as», slstance has been given by the Fed- eral Government towards thus-i portation in that section, and tic-I servedly so. Personally I don't see

why, if assistance is justified in im- proving that section, it would noti be justified if it were done from West Point to Buctouche in an- other part of the Island."

Dominion n ‘ ' s

Mr. Bracken went on to d'scuss the relationship between the Do- minion und Provincial Govern- ments. "The business of Govern- ment," he emphasized, “is your business; nobody c!se‘s. You have a central government at ‘Ottawa and you have Provincial and muni- cipal admlnistrations. They arc all financed out of your money. They are there as your servants. The trouble is that some of them get to think that they are your mas- ters, that they can order you around. That is a sophy.

"Do you know how much of your motley they are - spending Ottawa? Before the war thev spent $500,000,000 a year in round fig- ures. How much are they spcnding today? More than two thousand million dollars a year-more than four limes as much, now, in the third year after the war.

of this country have waited for the Government to take off some of the taxcs they put on during the war. How much did they take off? They cla l they took 23 per cent off in income tax. than mey withdrew the subsidies they were paying to the farmers and other producers. and allowed DUB cost of living to increase very much more than the offsetting tax reductions. The cost of living went up more than you saved in taxes.

"The indirect taxes provide more than one-half the totaigrevenuel Not a single reduction was made in l them and they are the taxes that‘ the poor people Pay to the samel extent as the rich people.

"What is the Government doing about reducing expenditure? Dur- ing the war they increased your taxes 300 per rent; and all they reduced them in all the years since the war is l2 per cent. They increased expenditures from $500.- 000,000 to 52.500.000.000. They still spend $2,200,000,000."

The first and most intimate re- lationship between a. government and its people. Mr. Bracken said. is that of taxation. In this con- nection he cited his own experi- ence in taking over the Premier- ship cf Manitoba as heed of a farmers’ government. The interests of the farmer and farming com-

the events leading up to his ac- ceptance of the leadersnip of the Progressive Conservative Party. He had no desire to accept this posi- tion, but it was presented to him

to ignore.

' Huge Tax Burdens

Today. Mr. Bracken said, the Dominion Government is taking more than two thousand million dollars out of the pe0p'e's pockets every year. That is practi tally one- fifth of all theEmoney that every- one in Canada earns. It is one- hnlf as much as everyone in Can- ada earned in an average year be- tween i930 and 103B.

"This should be reduced," Mr. Bracken maintained. "When the tax burden becomes so great that ‘it discourages production, then a halt should be called. When pro-

duction goes down, wealth goes down, and. you have nothing also on which to build a sound indus- trial or agricultural economy. .“In the relation between n gov- ernment and its people much de- pends on the services which are given. At Confederation the Fed- eral Government was giving prac- tically no services. Since then a change has come over the world. Now. because of a more scientific development of-our economy in- volving mass production of essen- tial needs supplied by relatively few people, many thousands are limetimes thrown out of employ- ment. And so, governments all over the world are giving services- workmen's compensation, old age pensions, health and social service grants, family allowances, otc. Those things are given in every section of the world by all govern- ments today. They will be con- tinued. The criticism is to be round. not in the principle, but. in the

services."

Because of their extravagance. Mr. Bracken declared, the Govern- ment is forced to hound the poor farmer who has not kept rocirds. to got. income tax reports for five, six or seven years back.

"Another relationship between the government and the people has to do with the powers allotted to the federal and provincial admin- istrations," Mr. Bracken said. "We have a system in Canada under which the Federal Government can lax in any way they like. The Provincial Governments can tag only by direct taxation. Today this Government at Ottawa Wants to centralize all authority; It ‘Want! t0 take away from them the pow- ers given the Provinces at Confed- eration. -

"We agree that financial assist- ance to the Provinces should be given. We don't agree that there

World Affairs

In conclusion Mr. Bracken dealt with the relationship between the Government of Canada and the governments of other countries. He gave s. very interesting first- hand account of the set-in of the United Nations tribunal, stressing the fact that today two conflict- ing ideologies are in the field. One. representing Communism and athetstic totalitarianism, is led ‘o; Soviet Russia; the other ts rcp- rcsented by the Christian demo- cracies of the British Empire. the

' United States, and certain parts of

Western Europe. The Communists believe there is no place in the world for these two ideologies. and they have no intention of yieldios place. In this intolerant attitude lies the seeds of another world

solution to his

WOT. q "Also, we in the democracies . must demonstrate to ourselves and ito the world that we can serve .our people better than Commun- . ism can serve Russia. That is ivhere [the challenge comes in." Outlining the position oi the iProgresslve Conhstervatlisve Party lworld affairs, r. rackets Sal ‘that “as business men we stand

for the right of doing business at , a fair profit; for the young people ‘we stand for opportunity-oppor- ltunity for children to be born healthy, to have an education and

the best training we can give thcm; Ifor women we stand for recogni- f tlon as equals of men; for the aged lsecurity—the highest standard of l security the state can afford under la measure of taxation which does not discourage production and en- terprlse. For all we stand for the widest exchange of goods." In the latter connection Mr.

Bracken sounded a warning as to i tile condition of Canada light; ‘tirad-

ing nation today. " e n we are prosper-lug," he said. "The Government is sending to Europe and the rest of the world four or five times as much goods as we are getting back. We are selling to lBritain and France and Europe

only because we have lent money | to these countries to buy the goods ‘ we sent them." Mr. Bracken went on to cite the i enormous balance of trade against Canada in the United States. The situation has developed to such an extent that Canada ls tint-at- ened with becoming bankrupt in American dollars. “We are ending money to the Government of Can- ada", he said, "in order that the Government may lend money to Britain so that Britain can buy our goods, so that we can finance our borrowings in the United States. That is the kind of economic world we are living in. We are facing the time when we will have to buy goods from the nations who buy our goods or otherwise we are not going to get paid for them."

Summing up the Progressive Conservative policy internationally, Mr. Bracken said it meant: "For alll of us trade; for all of us peace."

"We are living," he added, "in one of the most challenging tlrnes in all of human history. The gen- era ion in which we find ourselves iis better informed than a? prev-

ious generation. We have he wis- dom of the ages behind us We have the accumulated lknowlatlg: of science, the meehan sm w r has given us mass production on a scale nobody else has ever had. We have on this northern half- contlnent vast resources, giving us an opportunity to take the moral and economic leadership of the world. It is time for us all to keep our feet on the ground and think rationally and wisely.

“We have tried to develop s pol- liey which every man and woman in Canada can support; because it iarational and sound. We stand for Just as high a standard of sce- urity as any other party, and we will be able to give a greater standard of security because tlie things we stand for will resuit ‘.n more production of wealth. Other- wise you are going to have a dis- tribution of scarcity rather than of wealth."

Mr. Bracken emphasized the problems facing the farmers at the present time, and referred also Lo the fisheries as a basic industry requiring every support and uniso- ancc from the Government.

Opening Remarks

"Thank you for your more than generous v1 lcome," Mr. IL-acken said in his opening remarks ‘It is a great pleasure for me to haw: the opportunity of coming back to the Maritime Provinces. the most beautiful section of Canada and the part most neglected by the Government of Canada.

"It ls s pleasure to come back to the Province of Prince Edward Island, the garden spot. of Canada. I know because I have driven over and flown over it; in fact l look-
