Mr. Pearson freely conceded that Canadian national interc‘is cannot be considered and safeguarded apart from those of the United StatES.

Mr. Pearson ended hi. speech on t plea for ‘a izrenter effort of mu— tual understanding." Let us hope that it will sink in.

InVIles Suggestions

On July 8. when Finance Minis— ‘ter Gordon made his statement in the House of Commons that the bud- get he had prewlitcd with such as— surance on July 13 would be greatly changed, he said: “The old saying ’that only he who wears the shoe knows where it pint-hes has nlwa s been as true of taxes as of most thing. The complexity of modern .husiness. and, therefore. the com- plexity of modern taxation, has made it increasingly difficult for governments to foresee all the lid- l'ministratire prohlems and all the

consequences of tax changes." 3 Thc minister. in chnstened mood. lwent on to acknowledge “with imtitude the representations and fouggostlons that have been made." lEvidently the experience of those {only oinbcrressi'nu reactions to his .budgat. is still fresh in Mr. Gordon‘s imind. And it h- to hli credit thi: it lotide be so, for it Iii the part of lwisdom to heed the lessons of ex-

He has kild the Com. mons that he will be sending invita- tions in \ 'iting to such groups as the (‘anallian liabnr Congress, the Canadian Federation of Agriculture. the (‘aiiadiaii (‘hamher of Fommerre, the manufacturers, the exporters and others. All submissions should he made before January 31. so that thin be considered before the hurtgei is drawn up. If submissions are made eiirlier. and are made pub. lic, «mi? discussion could take place, The responsibility for making decisions on the merits of these pl'esv eniatinns. of course, will still be up to the finance minister. And be mu<i he linuhly careful, in helm‘nlz them, not to tip his hand. He miist pliiv it through with a poker face until the occasion comes for him to lay his cards on the table. in his budget delivery. It will be quite a feat if he plillll it off, and satisfies all concerned as to his scrupulosity. A step to be commended. in any case. and to be welcomed as evidence that Mr. Gordon is making a real attempt to grow up with his job.

Chips & Prairie Wheel

The Hamilton Spectator tlikcs note of the fact that transatlantic shipping rates may be increased be cause of the booming business brought by Canada's mammoth \vheat sale to Soviet Russia, and thlit Prince Edward Island’s new British market for frozen french fried pota- toes mny be jeopar ' ed as a result. Considering that this is a business of infinite possibilities, it says. and that some 5.000 tons of potatoes are ready for processing. the anxiety is understandable,

“Compared with the Soviet wheat deal." adds the. Hamilton paper, ‘ his may seem like small potatoes —no fun intendediblit if shipping rates went up and l'anadian french frieds were. fniced out of the British market, P.E.l. farmers would get a nasty shock. There is some talk— not in official circles—of a subsidy if the worst Comes to pass and I'rn7eu chips become I victim of pm prosperity."

All that “9 can add to this and to what we have already said on the subject is that if the. subsidy talk hasn't by this time reached “official circles" at Ottawa, it is high time it did.

Buy A Poppy

Just a reminder, as we approach Remembrance Day, that our citizens attain have the opportunity of con- tributing to the fund raised by the Royal Canadian Legion through its annual sale of Poppies. This is a special fund. administered by the. Legion solely for the benefit of ex— service men and women and their dependents requiring material las- . stance.

As the years pass. the need [or such assistance does not slacken; for the war veterans. like the rest of us, are growing older and many of them, apart from the numerous in~ stances of disability, now lack the capacity to compete for jobs.

This nation is heavily in debt to our veterans, as well as to those who made the supreme sacrifice in our muse. and whose memory we shall honour on Monday. it: in a debt quite beyond our power to discharge, but the Legion Poppy Fund gives us an opportunity to show our awareness of the obliga- tinn.
