Prime Minister Bites Effect 0f Liberal Policies

OTTAWA, Nov. 25-—(CPl—-rrime Minister St. Latirent said tonight he believes few Canadians "will not admit" that they are "much better off than they were before the war."

"it is a naattcr of record that since the w ended in 1945 there have been more people employed in Canada- than over before in pcacctlme," said Mr. St. Laurent.

"It is true that priccs have gone up ii good dcni, but so have wages and sliinrics. I am sure there are a vcry fcw who, if they are honest with themselves, will not admit that most Canadians are much bel- ter off than they were before the war.

"l am not going to claim for a moment that we wouldn't have had u fnir measure of prosperity in Canada, a good deal of employ- ment and a reasonably high na- ilonul income, even lf there hadn't hccn a Libcrnl Government at Ottmvn. What. I do suy is that the policies of the Liberal Government have contributed substantially to the fortunate position in which mnst Canadians find themselves to- day."

Liberals had undertaken to carry out policies designed to keep cm-

iirrsent a dollar to every person WPHWILZ a smile. and found very Ifw uu‘\vai'<ll_v happy. Many who did ~mllc backcd away suspiciously whoa nifurcrl lhc dollar.

"Sn fur, we have bccn pretty

“The Liberal party is resolved to work for prosperity and social se- curity with a minimum of inter- -fercnce with the livcs and occupa- tions of the people. The Liberal party is opposed to any system of over-ail governmental control of the Canarlian economy.

"We think that in peacetime, such ovcr-ziil control would be im- proper interference with the free- dom of our citizens; that it would conflict with the distribution of powers between the Federal Gov- ernment and the government! of

the Provinces set out in the con-

stitution; and, moreover, that it [would not,in fact iicip to promote prosperity."

Mr. St. Laurent said unemploy- ment insurance. export insurance, floor prices for primary products, establishment of the reconstruc- tion dcpurtmcnt were among the things done by the Government to help provide stability for Cana- dinns.

Every visit to the Science Ser- vice Building at the Dominion Experimental Farm produces s. story and yesterday's was no ex- ception. Hearing of the building of some extensions a Guardian reporter dropped in to see Mr. R. R. Hurst, oflicer-in-chage. and came away convinced that. the “watchdogs of the potato indus- fy" miss nothing in their science service lo the farmers of P. E.l.

Normally the business of "rais- ing the roof" is not connected with a scientific laboratory, yet Mr. Hurst was quite proud of the six extra rooms which his roof- raising had added to the science Service building.

This building. which houses the Plant Protection. Entomology (bugs and sucii like! and Plant Pathol- ogy divisions of the DominionDe- partment of Agriculture's Science Service, was found too small for the expanding operations, which was the simple reason for Mr. Hurst's decision to raise the roof. ‘Ikhc six rooms will be used for dark-room photography, various offices and a filing room, and will allow considerably more space on the lower floors. They are bright and well laid out. with lots of cupboard room. and are finished with a pamlcd waiiboard and bal- ile=l1ip linoleum on the floors.

lu a home-hungry world. this would make a wonderful apart- inent.

Temperature Cabinets

Mr. Hurst then led the way to the basement, and in who-t had- recently been a large coal bin, ho revealed a battery of lo\v temper- ature cabinets and another of in u l t i p i e temperature cabinets. These two scts of cabinets are the latest equipment for the study of storage disorders in potatoes and loot crops and temperature effects on the organisrtis causing crop diseases. Mr. Hurst was particu- larly pleased that the work was carried out by a local carpenter and electrician, although the plans had been completed by Mr. Phil- lips. refrigeration expert, at the Central Experimental Farm, Otta- wa. - There are four low-temperature cabinets each with a capacity of 64 cubic feet. that is, 4 feet high. wide and deep, The temperature in each is individually cont-rolled and can be read from the outside and one is equipped with a. hum- zdlfier for moisture control. "Dole plates." the latest form of refrig- eration is used and the insulation consists of baits and two layers of laminated sheet cork, four in- ches thick. "

The tides. of these cabinets ls to see what happens to potatoes and roots tinder all kinds of storage conditions and to'dcvelop perfect storage.

Disease Development Studied

On the other hand, the multiple temperature cabinets are to study at what temperature the different disease organs develop most. It is. it large copper trough turned on its edge and divided into eleven compartments. At one end heat

while at the other end ice is {untried by refrigeration, thus giv- ing graduated temperatures be- tween any range desired.

Behind the Science service Laboratory building. the 88MB and storage warehouse is also be- lug enlarged to about three times its original size and the original building raised l8 inches. The full basement. with potato experiment- al storage is equipped with a tem- perature control mechanism and a small elevator ‘moves potatoes to the top floor.

Delicate Look In Women's Fashions

MONTREAL, No-v. 25 — (GP)- Now comes the "delicate look" in women's fashions. Montreal's fashion-week visitors saw it today in a light. airy show for spring sliowu by‘ (Adrian) a designer who predicted it will match "the very feminine fashions."

Buttons for trimming are a. highlight, merely for decorative purposes. Scallops and piping and twists of leather and suede Dro- vide ornamental devices and there are few bows and buckles. Heel heights are still a mutter of pre- ference uild comfort and are av- ailable from the lowest. Cuban type to the high French Lmiis.

Plat-foams that add height to sandals and ‘Dumps are being made as are the flat soles. There is a decided swing to the open look alter a few seasons of the closed look, and the open toe and sling back are being shown iu mahy styles.
