step is being made in this direction. |

pensive confusion in the national economy, particularly in the-realms — of transportation and communica- tions.

So far as education at least is con- cerned, we need not be under any illusion that the current uptrend in costs is a temporary one. Regardless of handouts from Ottawa, it is on the provinces with the lowest tax poten- __ tials that the chief burden of meeting ” standard requirements in- this field will fall. What is needed is a get-to- gether at all three levels of govern- ment to work out a program that will not fail to take account at least -of secondary as well as_post-second- ary education—for surely it is all one problem, after all}and perhaps the- most chaflenging that. is facing the - country at this time.
