Report on Housing

The general impression is that, like ihc Whitc Queen. we must run faster and faster in order to stay in the same place.

Secrecy In Atomic Matters

'lllivrc has been a widespread belief in lvcstcrii i-ountrics that Russian espionage in thc ifnitcd States had mucii to do with the rapidity with which Soviet scientists were able to produce nuclear weapons. Thcrc is no doubt that :1 good deal of spy- ing has bcmi goiiig on; but, in ti.e opinion. of Dr. James Bcckerly, an official of thcl I'nitcd Slates Atomic Energy Commission. its importancc has been much exaggerated. "We can only surmise", said Dr. Beckcri) in an n(ldi'(lSS before a scientific society. ”why the ll. S. S. R. became armed sop soon; but pcrsonally I believe it was primar-: ily tliroiigli the efforts of Soviet scientists and cniziiiccrs backed by a ruthless total- itarian rcsrilvc to dominate the world that thc 1'. S. S. R. became iirmed with fission weapons as early as 1949." "We must slog? kidding oursclvcs," he continued, "that we, jilgi natiii-ally hotter than the Soviets in,

arc technical matters. the plants to make fissionable materials and bombs." ,

llr.

Five hundred years ago.,l sometime between 1454 and .1456, Johnj Gutenberg printed his first Bible at Mainz., Germany. In ancient China, one thousand) and one years ago. printers finished repro- ducing all 130 volumes of the Confucianl classics. l

Dr. 'ai1ncvar Bush, president of 1hr (7arncgic Institution of Washington, has said he believes that movable metal type will by supplanted by new and faster printing

methods. If so, it is really the end of an era. (1utcnbcrg's invention of separate metal type characters about 1436 is thr:

very foundation of modem printing. Hei was not the only inventor, however. Blocl: irinting actually began some seven cen-I turles earlier in China. About 1041 a,

genius named Pl Sheng conceived movable type made of fire-hardened clay. Movable metal type came later. Koreans were mak- ing it perhaps as early as 1232.

, The first printed book still in existence. the British Museum's "The Diamond Sutra", was produced by the Chinese Wang Chieii in A.D. 868. Similar wood blocl: printing existed at least a century earlier. A few copies survive of a million printed Buddhist charm papers ordered in 770 by Japan's Empress Shotoku. fucian canon, so important to Chinese cul- tural history, took 21 years to complete.

MR. PRATT AND TTIE TVEST

Sir.- I have read with much interest. in The Giirirdmn of Nov. 5th 8 letter signed by Mr. C. C. Pratt, of St. Peters. On the basis of ii magazine article. Mr. Prnii. attempts to outline condi- tions in the wheat growing sec- tion of Western Canada. He men- tions his trip to the West in 1012. and his working as straw boss on an outfit threshing and handling a fifty bushel crop. when Wheat. deal- ers and speculators had A free hand to transact business and pro- sperity existed on every hand in the Canadian West.

Today. he says, "The West is in ii. complete state of destruction. with three years wheat. on tho fnrmcrs' hands, elevators bulging their sides, grariaries filled to the

roofs"; they are in such a mess he says that the farmer is in despair, his nest. egg in the

bank is used up if he had any. lll.I credit at the stores and banks ex- hausted. and he is smothered with his own wheat in a world that is starving. due to the conditions ex- lstlng under the management. '0! the Western Whcnt Board which are definitely and dcmonstxntivcly the worst one could conjure in his wildest fantasy." I do not tinder- stand what. he means in this last sentence. but no doubt it. is in- tended to be devastating.

Now I formed in those years Mr. Pratt speaks about.-those year! of wheat dealers and spcciilawrii. when the farmer who was well established with his own machin- ery, threshing outfit and all neces- sary equipment was able to have his crop seeded in the early spring, get awiiy to an early shirt at threshing time. place his wheat. on the early market. and receive from 81.25 to 81.80 per bushel. The homesieader, as 1 was, would have to leave his wheat in siook for weeks at l time. until the threshing outfit with Mr. Pratt. as straw boss would cventuiilly make its way to our farm about Novem- ber UL, and after brushing the snow off the stocks we would fin- nlly complete our season's thresh- lniz. By the time we would get. our wheat. to the elevator. the price had dwindled and all that was left of 81.00 was 80 pts. The grain

From The Examiner, Dec. a, 1882:

Mr. Justice Peters gave judgment. today on the question raised by cert.-iin shareholders of the Bank kof Prince Edward Island, who ob- ijocted to being placed upon the list of contributories for a greater sum than 564.44 per share. He decided that in call of W0 per share be made upon the directors of the Bank, and reserved further judg- .menl. as to the liability of the share. lholders.

Mr. Mcxinlay, well known street preacher. met. with 8 serious ac- cident this morning. While at the dry goods store of Mr. A. B. Mc- ,Kcnz:c he became engaged in argu- lment. On scoring a point he as usual turned upon his heel. but this time slipped, and fell and broke his ankle. He was given in charge of Dr. McKay. who set the limb immediately. Mr. McKinley is doing as well as can be expected under the c.rcumsiancc.s.

rsiriblisliments never knew of such business and prosperity: towns are springing up over night, cities growing faster then they can lay he streets.

Take eglnn for example in 1912, wiitn Mr. Pratt paid us a vlirlt. Regina was just. a few houses on the banks of the Wascuna; today it is fast growing to be one of the most beautiful cities of Con- nda; its Parltunent Buildings. with the exception of Ottawa the most beautiful in Canada, with their lawns find parks covering twenty- five ncrcs; Victoria Avenue with its beiutifiii shade trees lining both sides of the streets, tno rows of Manitoba Maples up the oentire, with A beautiful drlvewsy on each side; homes of the very best. flanked by beautiful Victoria Park on the one side. and the C.P.l't. i hotel. the "Saskatchewan" which is fifteen stories high. on thel other; the Exhibition grounds co- vering ninety acres with Mr. Auld in boy from Covehead, P.E.I.) Is Siipci-lntendcnt; with its two has- pitals, the General and the Grey Nuns. as modern as any in Can- ada; new and commodlous schools, Churches of the best, I credit to their parishonera: a city that is clean and up-to-date in every res. Dcci rind of which every citizen is justly proud. All this WK-I ac- cnnmilsiied by the prosperity of the wheat grower of the wemm plains.

Now I have never grown pota- toes, (glad of the fact that I never have) and therefore am not in E Dtxsitinn to argue pro or can on the subject of 1: Potato Mar- keting Board. But I do know that they require one thing. and thnt is adult education; if it. be neces- sary anywhere it is in potato areas. as A glance at the reports of the llrmel's' meetings held far the express purpose of studying the

marketing situation plainly tn- dicstu. In conclusion I would invite

Mr.'Prstt to visit Regina, tell us through this paper when he leaves St. Peters and I will meet. him at Union Station in Regina. He will be assured of a good time, and perhaps before his return his attitude will have changed and he will be able to speak in better word for the clmdtsn West.

OTTAWA REPORT

Ottawa: Emma athiiis has learned the hard way that in than days ”they'' are liable to

compel everyone to conform to the humdrum uniformity of our human productdon line. "They" may pre- vent. any person from living placid- ly inn manner of his own choosing. minding his own business. and bothering nobody.

By "they" of course, I mean the officials elected by us, or selec ed on our behalf, and paid by us, to manage our community, province or nation. Today all these, from senior executive to junior township

clerk. have ceased to end their official letters with the ancient phrase: ”I am, dear Sir tor

Madam). your humble and obedi- ent servant." Perhaps they hope that, without this reminder, John Q. Public will forget. who is boss. Little old Miss Emma Mathias was fortunate to afford to live in her family'.s spacious old house on a mature old avenue. The home which had been good enough for her grandparents and parents, and in which she had been brought up. seemed adequate and certainly happy for Emma and her sisterl Mollie in their last 11 years. Somcl of the rooms were no longer used and remained undusted; some old

mahogany chairs had been cu- cased in protective wrappings: bicycles and other childhood

souvenirs were stored safely away. Remembering disastrous bank fini- ures, and perhaps resenting banks" rising service charges, Miss Emma preferred to cache spending money in her home, rather than entrust it to some pi'ofc.ssLonal guirclian. . - .

At. last this inoffensive partner- ship for living was broken up by Mollie! death. A little later. poor Miss Emma fell and broke her leg. Living alone with no rclzitives car- lllg for her, she had to go to hus- pltal.

Immediately a niecc appeared on the scene, not to cure lovingly for her aunt. but to file an affidavit alleging that Miss Emma was in-

competent to look after hcrsrli A judge ordered investigators tn ax- iimine Miss Ell'll'llf-1.5 home-in hcr absence and without her pcrmis-, sion. Their study, it. was said. re-l vealed "a picture of mid-Viclorianl living in a modern era."

Apparently the adjective Victor- ian no longer implies a peaceful. prosperous and developing cxist-, ence, prlztng virtues of greatrr: worth than that of being able to buy I bigger television aerial than the Jonesls.

The liivcstigzitors went llll'fIilfLll the home with x-ray iliornuy,-liiicss.l stripping the ivrappings off furnit- ure, ripping tires off the bicycles. tearing open mattresses, probiiig' into every drawer and closet. searching among bedding and clothing, and even riitiiiii: into upholstery. They discovered Mis.-"l Emma's hiding places for her money and boasted "Tim-r is not even ii penny that we have not found."

Then this modrin Gcsiipn med-, ercd electric lights and runningi water to be lustalleci in the old home: ordered it to be redecorated and converted to staiidards which they considered essential for mod- em living. All at Miss Emma's ox- pense. When she returns from the hospltal, she will be startled to fulfil that "conveniences which she dis- dained" have been thrust upgi her, and that the "lnconvenlcigt rind, ,-.. . H... .

all men are endowed by (mp- Crcater with certain inalienable rights, among which are life, lib.

eriy and the pursuit. of happinwi ...ihese rights being secured by a government. which derives its just powers from the consent or the governed."
