The llntarlo Election

The return of the Drew Government in Ontario with a reduced majority is. indicated in yester- day's election returns. The big surprise was the defeat of Premier Drew personally in Toronto High Pork by his C. C. F. opponent, Mr. Temple. This ishard to account for, except on the ground that the constituency is an industrial one and that a concerted drive was made against him by all the socialistic groups. Only two Communist (Labor-Progressive) candidates were in the run- ning, in Bellwoods and St. Andrew, and both were elected; but in other riding: it was common

7 knowledge that they were putting their full sup- ' port behind the C. C. F. candidates.

ln the rural sections of the Province the Conservatives fared better. The Liberals, whose hopes were mounting during the latter stages of the campaign, seem

"to have suffered the heaviest losses.

lt would be unfortunate if Premier Drew's de- feat should meqn his exit from the political stage. A man of outstanding ability and per- sonality, it is generally conceded that he gave Ontario sound and, honest administration. A feature of his policy was the bringing of more than 7,000 immigrants by air to the Province The air scheme is now no longer under Ontario

- auspices, but the work done by the Government -to persuade desirable ~Ontorio will continue.

immigrants to settle in

The Govern-ment ‘also received pretty general commendation for its policies with-respect to health and education, expansion of hydro and electrical services, relief of municipalities, and encouragement of agricul- ture, forestry and mining.

Trade With Newfoundland

The manner in which Prince Edward island hasregained its old-time trade with Newfound- land in recent years is a matter of general satis- faction. lt was referred ta in the Speech "W"

~the Throne at the last session of the Legislature,

and also by Premier Jones in his Budget speech.

xTho Premier's statement an the latter occasion,

that over three million dollars of Prince Edward been ship- ped to Newfoundland lost year, has been indors-

_ ed officially by Mr. l. C. Brjtton, Canadian Trade YCommissioner to Newfoundland, in an interview

in Saturday's Guardian. Mr. Britten points out that cur $3,000,000 Newfoundland trade is op- proximately six times the amount per capita of the rest of Canada. He attributes this- to the superior quality of Island products, and also to the aggressiveness shown by our trade agent, Mr. W. E. Agnew, who has certainly done an excellent job since his appointment to this office a few years ago. ' Premier Jones in his Budget speech pointed out how our Newfoundland trade could be further developed, particularly in the event of the Anci- ent Colony becoming a Province of Canada. This question is still to be decided by a second refer- endum, The Premier's idea is that a twice-week- ly ferry service between the two islands could be established on a mutually profitable basis.

ln the meantime, we should insist on an‘ im- provement over the subsidized steamer service provided this season, whereby boats arriving here from Montreal already partly loaded have been able to carry only a fraction of the Island live- stock and produce awaiting shipment to New- loundlond. l -

Argues For Reciprocity

The difficult task oi explaining Canada to our American neighbors in terms of Canadian :ideals and U. S. dollars is attempted by Mr. Bruce Hutchison, assodiate editor of the Winni- peg Free Press, in a recent article in an American magazine. Mr. Hutchison emphasizes that Con- ado is facing a grave economic emergency by reason of the collapse of world trade. Europe no longer could pay for Canadian goods in cash, when Canada had to give them away or sell them on the cuff in a gigantic Marshall Plan of its own, and when, at the same time, it had to impart more than ever from the United States, the economic danger became acute. In- deed, it is Mr. Hutchisorfs contention that with more than half our dollar and gold reserves flow- ing to the United States in the massive financial hemorrhage of i947, we would have gone broke within a few months if the Government had not restricted American imports, arranged its first American loan and waited for the IRP to pro- vide its European customers with more cash.

Canada today is faced with the alternatives of permanently restricting its American imports and hence its living standard (to the great dam- age of American industries) or. vastly expanding its imports into the United Status. Here it has been buying twice as much as it sold- and hence the current dollar shortage. To bring this trade into something, like balance two things are need- ed-Jncreased production in Canada of the things the United States can use, and increased willing- ness in the United States to buy.

According to Mr. Hutchison, the Canadian

ernment is seeking again the reciprocity plan which the Canqdian people reiected in I9li. When that proiect comes lo the point of de- cision, after the Presidential election is out of the way, the United Slates must consider several facts: that in the short term Canada will be the United States’ only meler partner in supply- Europe under the Marshall Plan‘, overcomes its dollar
