SATURDAY, MAY 10, 194i, \Var Savings rleavy as is the ivartinie budget introduced hst week by Finzince Minister llsley,it would require to be much heavier but for the Domin- i0n's voluntary war bond buyers and war savings certificate liziyt-i-s. \\'ar savers from Char- lottetown to Yiiucnuvi-i’ have tindertalvcn to stip- ply the country's war coffers with $10,000,000 every month in the year for the duration of the struggle. And according to the last available re- port from national headquarters at Ottawa, Can- adians are meeting the task set tliem_ 1n addition to war savings certificates, citizens took into their national stride the two war loans floate d during 1940, one for $?0°-°°°.°°° and the se con d for $3°°-°°°-°°°- And on lime 3, as ztiinotmcctl hv .\lr. Ilsley, a third loaii will be offered to the public. Tdicitigh figures for the Victory loan have not been released, uti- doubtedlyr, in keeping with the present and ever- increasing expenditures to beat Hitler, it will exceed the combined 19.10 loans by a healthy margin. By buying war bonds the people have loaned $500,000.00] to the Government during 1940. Through the medium of war savings certificates they have contracted to supply the Government en additional $t2o,o0o.000. Basing our calculations even on these figures for a single year ignoring the heavier demands that must surely follow, they meean the war ef- fort will be boosted by $620,000.000— 61 pcr cent of one lllLlslOX dollars- Tliis is a very large amount of money when measured in tanks and ships and guns, planes and munitions and all other things necessary to give our soldiers, our sailors and our airmen the all important r-pprvritinity- to meet the enemy oncven terms, so necessary if they are to win. It is the grave responsibility’ of the Govern- ment t0 sec that none of this money is wasted on party patronage or other non-essentials. \\'hen hlr. Ilslcy drew up the amount of money necessary to carry along the war effort, he took into consideration the amount the Government eould count on through voluntary loans of the people. Placing that to one side, he then calculat- ed the balance necessary to he raised through taxation, The result was the budget. Now is the time when each of us must search for the maximum sqtieezability of our way of liv- ing. We must reduce it and reduce it as the times, the circumstances and the Government demands. There is no "easier way" of carrying on the war. Sittings In Camera Ihere has been some difference of opinion at Ottawa as to whether the Committee of the Commons which is itueslig-itiflg WHY ex‘ nditures should or should not not sit in secret. here may, says the Montreal Gazette, be a very round reason for conducting the inquiry behind closed doors xvlien outlays are related directly to military’ operations -#ir naval 0r air —-llie na- ture of which it is undesirable to disclose. In any event the Committee has decided that ses- sions of its three sub-trummittees are to be held in Q-mm-m (me ni these committees is to inquire into contracts and other matters connected with air defence operations: another is to study mili- tary health service expenditures, catering costs, etc, while the main committee will deal with questions of finance, military pay and so forth. Each of thtse suli-coiiiiiiittc-es has a Liberal chair- man, tlic u-uzil procvzliirc under party govern- meiit but just a little bit suggestive when a na- tional war effort is conccriierl.1\ rather heavy responsibility is placed tipon these three govern- ment followers who will be held answerable for anything but tlic most strict impartiality in direct- ing the invcstigatioits. and it must be ltcpt in mind that these stili-coimiiittccs will be probing closest to tlic sources of all war expenditures and tlic reasons for thcm. if llicrc is any ground for criticism it is these committees that will find it, provided they curry" out their mission faith- fully, and it will be itpon the rcstilts of their work that the parent b1 idy will have t0 form its judgment and base whattvci" recommendations it may decm tiropcr. British Children Overseas A wise and commendable move. says the G/(Ibc and Jluil, is the decision of the British CJOVCFIIHICHI to pass .1 hill authorizing the ap- pointment of legal guardians for the British childrcti who, since the war lit-gait, have been evacuated, under (itiveriinicntal auspices, to this Continent. It is estimated that tlic total number of voting evacuees now hatipily ‘enjoyiing im- Iiitiliity from tlic ravages oi Hillel's aerial blitz- kricg on this side of the .‘\il.'ililiC 1S 13.300, and of these $000 have come to Canada and'2,o0fl to the [jiiitcrl Si. cs under private auspices. llut the British (iovériinient, through the Cliiirlreiis (),,.@,-§¢;|5 RcQ{")Il()i‘l"'B01li'd, which has enynyetl the co-opcrntion of committees in Canarll and {he United States, has made arrangctuenlf for i m; transference of an additional 1,500 childien unds and that, as a rule, to Canada and 800 more to the United States. The children evacuated by private arrangement are nearly all the guests of relatives or friends, but the 2,300 for whom the Government has assumed responsibility are mostly harbored with public-spirited Canadian or American families who had previously no tie or connection with them. These children are removed from the guard- ianship of their parents, and their temporary hosts have no real authority to make decisions about a variety of problems which are contin- ually arising in connection with their lives. For example, action which at times may be neces- sary for their health or welfare-such as a sur- gical operation or removal to a new home-can- not be taken without the consent of the parents or some substitute legal guardian. If the matter is urgent, it is virtually impossible to consult the parents in Britain and secure their acquiescence, and so the authorities on both sides of the At- lantic have become convinced of the necessity of appointing, both in Canada and the United States, a legal guardian who can act for those children in loco parentis. It is not the intention that these guardians should interfere in any way with the day-to-day work of the officials and organizations who are charged with the duty of supervising the welfare of these children; the latter will be helped in their task by having available close at hand some one who has the legal authority to endorse their actions. Business Man's Comment There is a right and a wrong way of doing everything, as was shown by Mr. G. K. Fraser, M. P. for Peterborough West, in the debate this week on the budget: “Last year" (said l\Ir_ Fraser) “this Govern- ment spent many thousands of dollars extrav- agantly and unwisely for many things not con- nectcd with the war effort. Lct me give an ex- ample which was brought to my attention on Saturday. On March 24, the hiinistcr of Fish- eries (Mr. Micliautl) told the house that it cost the Dominion Government $58,514.39 up to January 3t, 1941, to merchandise 4,410 5-8th cases of lobsters of e. value of $81,079.20. lifaga- zine advertising accounted for the greater por- tion of this sum, $44,294.30 being spent on ad- vertising and $12,756.46 on marking. In other words, merchandising lobster by this method half-pound tins, 13.8 cents a. tin to sell a pro- duct retailing at 27 cents. To put it in another way", it cost 72 cents to sell a dollar's worth of goods. I understand that the Minister of Fish- eries has also arranged a programme of adver- tising for this year, but I hope it is not all maga- zine advertising as was the situation last year. There are many business men among members of this House and I know they would not run their own business in that way. There is some- thing wrong some place—someone to my left ‘says there is something wrong every place. The Government should have cut out a little of this tnagazinc advertising and done a little more newspaper advertising; and when I say that, I atn not holding any brief for the newspapers." Mr. Fraser is a prominent building contrac- tor of Lakcfield, Ontario, and presumably knows wlicrcof he speaks.

EDUCATHINAL REFORM s1r,_1 em e farmer but do not consider myself gn authority on educational matters. However, I wish to take exception to the sent-i- ment. expressed by your correspon- dent who slgns himself “F'8l‘lll8i'." 1 believe that such letters, though they may be masterpieces o: subtle ridicule, tend to bring more heel; than light to any discussion of this important subject.

Warmer" professes to be very anxious over the lot of the pupils but shows an entire lack 0f sym- pathy for the teachers and little understanding of their problems. To my mind such en attitude Just doesn't make sense. In his last letter he attempts to manoeuver himself into the position of the victim of attack when in reality he is himself the party at- tacking. In one breath he accuses the spokesman of the Teachers Federation of being "hostile." in the next he says that he lacks the B- bility ro present his own arguments so is forced to quote from educat- ional authorities. A very mild form of hostility indeed, Had your cor- respondent taken the time to read the series of articles written by the spokesman of the Teachers Feder- ation during the past winter he would be convinceg of his familiar- ity with conditions as they exist. He would also know that he speaks out quite plainly not only for a living wage for teachers but for other long overdue reforms as well. If, after reading the above named articles “Farmer” is not satisfied, I would refer him to the Presidential ad- dress delivered by the present Gen- eral Secretary to the Teachers Con- vention two years ago which was one of the most complete and clear cut presentations of the education- al picture of this Province that.
